tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Welcome to our special weekend show, Sunday Uncensored.
		Every week we produce four uncensored episodes of the TimCast IRL podcast exclusively at TimCast.com, and we're going to bring you the most important for our weekend show.
		If you want to check out more segments just like this, become a member at TimCast.com.
		Now, enjoy the show.
		This is your story, sir.
		This is a crazy story, I was talking to Cassandra about it earlier.
		Pennsylvania man arrested after confronting drag queen during all-ages church event.
		As I was walking to the exit, the congregation attacked me.
		It was actually a video.
		So, we'll pull this up.
unidentified		Oh, there he goes.
		So this guy just attacked him.
		Yeah, it's like a solar battery.
		Oh, straight up.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Fight time!
unidentified		What a great white knight.
unidentified		Glad he was there.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		To protect all of the... Oh, there he goes.
unidentified		Yeah, so let's jump back.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's do this.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Get out of here with that.
unidentified		He's the kind of guy that looks like he would be fighting on behalf of drag queens.
unidentified		I'm not going to lie.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Here we go.
		We got the super slo-mo.
		So here's the gentleman yelling or wagging his finger.
unidentified		At the drag queen.
unidentified		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And then this guy comes and that's it right there.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He grabbed him!
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the guy with the ponytail just got out of costume.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I would say, like, you probably shouldn't go in these buildings.
		And so, uh, we got a picture here.
		It's graphic warning for everybody, but... McClane has a rare autoimmune disease where his body attacks itself.
		The slightest touch can cause his skin to rupture after the incident.
		His back looked like it had been shredded apart.
		So, uh, yeah.
		Very, very brutal.
		And, uh, man, that's- that's- that's- that's absolutely brutal.
		McCain provided SCNR with his charging document showing that he has been charged with simple assault and harassment.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He was charged with assault, even though the other people assaulted him.
		Clearly.
		Unbelievable.
unidentified		And harassment- And Pennsylvania.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Harassment typically requires a warning.
		So, you can't harass someone.
		It implies you've done something more than once.
		If someone's mad at you and you get into a fight, you didn't harass them.
		But outside of this video, I don't know the full details other than this.
		Tim had posted that he was going to go there, record the person, the people coming and going live on Facebook, and upload it to YouTube, asking people to join, and says to be peaceful, calling out disgusting pedophiles.
		My advice to everybody is do not get January 6th.
		Because now you know that what's going to happen is, they're going to start running stories saying, like, far-right guy attacks, you know, Drag Story Hour, children were present, and they're going to say that the arrest is proof.
		You did.
unidentified		Yep.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Honeypots abound.
		Beware.
		Yeah, it's just it's really difficult to confront these these groups.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		And especially, I mean, obviously, you know, the state that you're in is going to make a difference.
		And it also it's going to make a difference when it comes to if you're going to be successful in getting any kind of legal help.
unidentified		Right.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's fine to go ahead and take video if you're looking just to expose and put on the Internet.
		But there are places where you're not going to get you know, you're going to be treated as if you are Assaulting people as if you are hurting people by going and saying, look, you know, I don't want you having drag shows around kids.
		So, I mean, it's good to expose this kind of stuff, but you also have to, I think it's probably the best to manage expectations of what you think will actually happen.
		Getting the word out, exposing them, great.
		Expecting the government in a blue state to do something, probably going to get your, you're probably going to have your hopes let down.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		So, the guy that got attacked, who got charged for being the attacker, who actually got attacked, did he go in there and then, like, start yelling at people and pointing fingers and stuff?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Is that why he got hit?
unidentified		You're being very complicated.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Like, do undercover if you're gonna- if it's legal.
unidentified		Weird?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Covert.
unidentified		I don't understand how I asked politely if I could come in.
		I asked politely if I could come in.
		They said yes.
		I said, can I record?
		They said yes.
		I didn't do anything.
		Okay.
		Are you playing Bingo?
		Absolutely not. Absolutely not. I said literally not like that meme. This is blasphemy.
		Are you playing bingo?
		No, I paid to come in for a ticket.
		Well, why did you just come in?
		Because I want to see what's going on.
		Oh, wow. Okay.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So it really does look like in the full video, like, yeah, he did everything right.
		Paid to come in, asked if it was okay, asked if he could film, and they started getting people getting mad at him.
		And I think that that fits the MO of the far left, he does this all the time.
		There was, um, Dan Dix was filming at an event, he's Canadian, and far leftists started physically attacking him, and the cop said, if you don't leave, you'll be arrested.
		He's like, what?
		They attacked me!
		And they're like, I don't give a fuck, fuck you.
		Back the blue, baby!
		Gotta back the blue.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Never.
		Well, no, not never.
		Uh, when appropriate.
		That's what I should, that's what it should be, not never.
unidentified		So unfair.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'd say mostly not.
		Mostly not back to blue.
		When appropriate is a rare circumstance.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Just yeah, don't like zealously back anything you don't understand.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		But if you want to back an ordered society, as long as it's a good society, I think the police are extremely valuable for an ordered and good society.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		So there are people that say that poverty drives crime, right?
		So poverty comes first, and then because of the poverty, you get crime.
		That is totally Absolutely 100% backwards.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I actually, I believe there's a correlation between poverty and crime, but I believe now it is substantially less pronounced.
		And I believe, you know, over the past few months, the conversations we've had, I would actually say today, I would believe it's more culture.
		Culture breeds crime.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Sure, but my point being that the crime is actually what causes poverty.
		It's not that poverty causes crime.
		The fact that you have crime in an area, people can't open businesses, you don't have police that you can go to to say, oh, these guys broke into my store, they stole my stuff, my property, et cetera.
		You don't have, and this is exactly why property rights are so vital to a free country.
		And that's why you have, that's why to some degree you have to have courts for redress of grievance.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But the reason why I still somewhat disagree on this, and for a long time, my view of it was probably too naive, in that in the areas that I had seen and grew up, it was the poor people who were like, I don't have these things.
		So for instance, like when a video game of mine got stolen, it was stolen by the kid who couldn't afford the video game that everybody had.
		And so I do see a correlation there.
		However, that being said, culture before everything.
		Uh, if someone couldn't afford something, but their culture and their morals dictated you do not steal, out of fear of what the community may do, you could be shunned, you could, uh, you know, lose access to things, they wouldn't steal.
		So, I think it's too simple, it's too simple to say crime and poverty are correlated in either direction, although I do think you are correct to assert, like, absolutely what you're saying is true, if people are robbing stores, stores shut down, and now there's no commerce, I also think it's true that there absolutely are poor people who commit crimes because they want to have something.
		Either it could be status-related, it could literally be, I know everyone makes fun of AOC, it could be because they're hungry.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You mentioned status and stuff.
		The relative poverty does have an effect on it.
		So when people see, when you're poor and you see people with a lot more, that will drive crime?
		Or that can drive crime?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But I think it's ultimately culture because, as I've stated before, if every single person in the world Was, as Christian, as Seamus Coghlan, you would not need police, you would not need military, you wouldn't need any of that.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Only in civil society, but if civility breaks down like Hurricane Katrina, then being a religious Christian good guy doesn't get you out of that alive.
unidentified		You need the community, maybe.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		If you're able to communicate with your community, but if the roads are flooded and everyone's stuck in their buildings, like... Doesn't matter.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It is a fact.
		If everyone is completely morally homogenous, you do not need police or military.
		No, to the extent you're saying you need a police that's equipped to get in a boat and go rescue people from a flood, agreed.
		I'm saying I would not be worried about crime and looting in Katrina if every human being in New Orleans was Seamus Coghlan.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I kind of get where you're looking, but for everyone to be morally homogenized would be impossibility.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Of course, it's utopian.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		My point is simply, because you have a breakdown in community in parts of cities, you get crime.
		So, look, I grew up on the south side of Chicago where 47th Street, two blocks north of where we were, you cross that street, everyone's black.
		South of it, mostly white and Hispanic mix.
		The people north of 47th would come to our neighborhood and rob everybody.
		It wasn't race.
		It was sort of race, but it was community.
		We had friends who lived on our side of 47th who were also black and would not go around robbing anybody, and Hispanic people and Asian people and immigrants.
		The reason why they would cross 47th and come over is because it was a completely different community.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I was just being told about the gypsies and that it's literally in the culture.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Maybe you know more, I don't know a lot about it.
unidentified		We have a lot of gypsies in Spain.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		And it's like you're supposed to steal from non-gypsies in the gypsy culture.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I'll tell you this, on the south side of Chicago, across the street from my friend's house, Gypsies, what they literally called themselves, so I don't care if you think it's a slur.
unidentified		Yeah, they're very proud of being gypsies.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, they literally call themselves.
		What they did was, they rented a house from the landlord.
		And when they rented it, they said it was me and my wife.
		Here's us, here's our job.
		As soon as they got it, they moved in their whole family.
unidentified		Which is like 20, no?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Which was like, well, I think it was like 10 or something people.
		They all were living in this house, and they immediately stopped paying rent.
		Yes, and so the landlord immediately said, okay, eviction notice.
		They ended up getting, I think, like nine months free rent because what they were doing was When the landlord said, you didn't pay rent this month, they were like, I'm so sorry, we'll get it to you, just please give us time.
		A week goes by, landlord says, you guys are a week behind on your rent, I really need it, and they say, I know, I know, it's just our check, you didn't come through, my job is, look, I mean, I'm gonna get it to you.
		After like three weeks, he's like, guys, you're not paying rent, there's nothing I can do, I have to evict you, and they were like, I'll see you in court.
		And they filed a counterclaim against the landlord.
		They ask the judge, I have work, can you please schedule this court date for two weeks from today?
		So now they're at a month, you know, in a week.
		They're at, you know, a month and a week of free rent.
		Then, when they go to court for the first hearing, they have arguments to which the judge says, they ask the judge, we're going to need more time to present our case.
		We feel that the landlord has not upheld his legal responsibilities in maintaining the property, and we're refusing to pay rent until he fixes things that are broken.
		And the judge said, agreed.
		We'll reconvene after you compile the documents, and we'll give the landlord an opportunity to respond.
		So now they're at two months!

tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Actually, they just stopped paying.
		They just told the judge after a few weeks, we don't care.
		They weren't hiring lawyers, they weren't spending money, they were just going and saying, we need more time, we need more time, until the judge finally said no.
		After 8 months, they were finally able to get the police to show up to evict them.
		When the police finally showed up, the house was completely destroyed, everything was gone, and it was 8 months of free living in a house.
unidentified		Does the law protect the landlord or protects the tenants?
unidentified		In Spain, the law protects the squatters.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yes, same in Chicago.
unidentified		My grandparents just got a property robbed in last week from squatters and they were only able to take them out because they couldn't have time to change the lockers.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is the crazy thing.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So what the family ended up doing, the Gypsies, and they were proud of calling, they called themselves Gypsies.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		They were called Romanis.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No, they called themselves Gypsies.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Is that, you're saying that's the derogatory term?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So the left says it's a slur, but these people literally called themselves that.
		What happened then is, with their family of like 13.
		Fuck the left, by the way.
		While they were on their last month or whatever, knowing this is it, the cops are about to show up, they reapplied with the uncle, to another house, here's my job, here's my income, lying,
		and they repeat the process because they can keep doing it. And then what they do is
		with 10 family members, they're looking at like 10 years of free rent. And then by
		then the kids are old enough to rent and do the same thing and they keep the cycle going.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I wish I could remember the history of the Romani gypsies because someone was just telling me a
		couple of months ago about this, that it was within the doctrine of their culture, of their
		religion, of their life take. You're supposed to steal from people that are not Romani gypsies.
		Yeah, I- I- I- I cannot confirm this on the fly, but it's like you're saying, that thievery can be cultural, crime can be cultural.
		That's an example of it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Remember that guy in Detroit, the journalist?
		Why am I forgetting his name?
		Charlie, what's his face?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		From Detroit?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Man, I gotta clear my throat.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I don't know, Charlie.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Uh, squatting on the squatter.
		Famous video.
		Charlie LaDuff.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I like this guy.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		He's been on the show.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		He's awesome.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I wonder what he's up to.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He's legit.
		17 million views.
		So what he did was the squatter was in the house.
		So he's like, I'm moving in.
		This is what I'm saying.
unidentified		Like guys, listen.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Any squatter who came into my property would very much regret being a squatter in my property.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The things that I would do on my property with a squatter there, they would not want to be there.
unidentified		What would you do?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, we could start easy.
		I would bring roosters in, and I would give the roosters free reign of the house, and I would take the doors off.
		All the doors would be removed, and I'd say, you can live here all you want, but I'm selling my doors.
		The doors must be sold, and the roosters must be inside.
		And now, they're gonna be sleeping, and there's gonna be poop everywhere, and it's gonna smell like shit.
		And they're gonna be like, this is not worth it.
		And they'll likely leave.
		However, should the roosters prove incapable of getting the squatter out, then we bring in the goats!
		Oh boy.
		And if for some reason the goats are not effective, then we bring in the cow.
unidentified		Dude.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		How do you do it without destroying your property?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Temples with noise?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They are going to destroy your property anyways.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the squatters will destroy it.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Can you play music 24-7 super loud?
unidentified		Yep.
		To my grandparents, they stole even the toilet paper.
		They were there less than 24 hours.
		They left their apartment empty.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		What if you just like put like just blasted snuff films?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		My house would be an indoor shooting range.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's like the Simpsons joke where Bart's like, I'm going to go like this, and if you get in the way, it's your fault.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You're going to be like, I'm shooting, and if you get in the way, it's your fault.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Stay out of the way.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Here's the lane.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but I don't think you can legally shoot inside your own home.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		In New Hampshire, I can cheat on my property.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I gotta ask, guys, the roosters will get the job done.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I think you're right.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, real easy.
		When rooster bro, like, you walk in the kitchen and he jump kicks you and spurs you, they're gonna be like, I can't live like this!
		Yeah.
		Oh, I'd bring like 40 roosters.
unidentified		I think that in Spain, if they change the lockers, then you cannot get in inside your property.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The best part is, like, well, you know, Spain is weird, but I'll tell you, there are similar rules.
		The issue, just what's remarkable to me is...
		Squatters are lying and stealing, but the people they're stealing from just acquiesce to whatever the police say.
		Like, dude, if I came to my house and there was a person living in it, I would call the police and say, help, I'm being robbed.
		A person broke into my house.
		And if they came and the guy was like, I live here, I'd be like, they're burglars!
unidentified		They did that to my grandparents.
		The police said, we cannot help you.
		We can talk with them, but we cannot do anything.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		The problem is most people, I can't speak for Spain, What happens to squatters in the U.S.
		is that someone goes, there's a man squatting in my home, and the cop goes, civil, click, and hangs up.
		But if you call the police and say, help, there's a man trying to kill me, they show up, and they will shoot the motherfucker.
unidentified		That's true.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So the problem is, squatters are burglars, and they're literally robbing your home in real time.
		But people will call the cops and say, hello, officer, I'm having a civil dispute with an individual in my house, and they'll say, talk to a judge.
		But if you said, a man has broken into my home, help, help, I think he's gonna kill me.
unidentified		Then they come.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the cops will show up right away and drag him out of the house.
		There's no, like, this, this squatter here, like, this is the mistake everybody makes, there's a squatter in my house, what do I do?
		Uh, help, police, someone broke into my house and they're trying to kill me.
		Plant an acorn tree outside, that'll help.
		There you go.
		And I'm not saying lie or anything, I'm saying like quite literally someone who breaks in your house is a burglar, legally.
		So the problem is, people are really dumb, okay?
		Burglary in Maryland is if you cross a physical barrier of any kind onto property of any kind.
		That means if I hang a shoestring around a barren acre of property and someone walks by and steps over it, they've committed fourth-degree burglary.
		I can now call the police and say, help, police, there's a burglar in my home.
		I fear great bodily harm or death and I want you to get here before I have to take action.
		And the police will come and remove the person.
		But too many people are like, hello officer, there's a man inside my house.
		And they'll be like, what's he doing?
		Well, he's sleeping here.
		And they'll be like, okay.
		So it sounds like you have a civil dispute with a tenant.
		I don't know.
unidentified		That's true.
unidentified		Yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I'm reading about the Romanis so hard right now.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Let's, uh, let's go to callers.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, dude.
unidentified		Yeah, let's do it.
		Right off.
		Uh, first we got peas.
		I wanted to call on you with that name.
		How you doing?
		Hey, I'm doing good.
		Thank you for taking my call.
		I hope everyone's doing good tonight.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We do good every day.
unidentified		It's true.
		My question, I was curious for Tim, actually, if you've noticed maybe ever since post COVID, it seems like across all the industries and trades in the country, everybody just is like really incompetent and doesn't care about their job or their work and everybody's poorly trained, whether it's police officers or, you know, piloting.
		It just seems like everything is kind of falling apart.
		And actually, the funny reason why I chose this as my question is because I had an insane incident with a police officer today that almost resulted in a gun battle between he and I. What happened?
		Yeah.
		Um, I pulled into a little gardening shop to get some flowers for Valentine's day and he was directing traffic.
		It was a really small business and parking lot.
		And I pulled in and he would give me a signal to stop.
		And I rolled down my window and he told me I needed to back out into the road and it's a busy road.
		And I said, hell no, I'm not backing out into the road.
		It's dangerous.
		I can't see.
		And eventually I was just kind of ignoring him because there was a car like coming my way to pull out where I pulled in.
		Um, so I did that and he was still hollering at me.
		I said, man, I don't need your stupid traffic advice.
		Just go F off or whatever.
		And then he ran in front of my truck and said, you need to back out.
		And if you run me over, I'm going to pull my gun out and shoot you.
		And I, and.
		I, uh, I said, get the F out of the way.
		And right when he said that he's going to shoot me, I had my hand on my gun in my truck.
		Cause I have a, I have a holster on the dash and I was telling him, I was screaming at him.
		Don't you reach for it?
		Get out of the way.
		I'm going to leave.
		And that's what happened.
		And it was crazy, but he was actually a cop and everything.
		So, you know, I didn't know he just kind of escalated it and said, if you run me over, I'm going to shoot you.
		But he also was like following my my truck, like standing in front of it or whatever and getting in front of it deliberately.
		So it was crazy.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So we went to.
		We went to, uh, where was it?
		At, uh, Des Moines.
		They have what's called, they have what's called Racinos.
		Race track casinos.
		And, uh, they have this eating area that overlooks the race track.
		It's awesome.
		Dude, the horse races are so much fun.
		You get on the horse with the goofy names.
		You bet on the, you bet a dollar on the goofy name.
		You have a cheeseburger and you hang out with your friends.
		You know, that's, that's my kind of jam.
		I don't like you go to a bar, it's dark, you know, it's like cramps and it's noisy and you can't talk.
		Now, I like the racetrack where you sit down, you get a cheeseburger and you're just hanging
		out eating, but you get to watch the horses and then maybe get lucky in your goofy horsemans.
		Out here at the Charlestown races, they shut down the eatery after COVID and have never reopened it.
		So now you go watch the races, sure.
		You get yourself a high noon, and you stand outside, and you're like, that was fun, and then you leave.
		There's no more lo- like, you could go for the whole four hours of racing, where it's like a race every 15 minutes, I think, and you could sit down, order food with your friends, hang out, shoot the shit for like an hour while the horses are running, just have something going on in the background while you guys are having a good time.
		I got rid of it.
		They got rid of so much stuff after COVID and I guess what they're saying is that older people who are working these jobs decided to retire instead of dealing with it and just go into their savings.
		And so the workforce just evaporated.
		That and they probably killed a shitload of elderly people.
		But that means there's a lot less in the workforce and so there's less demand and there's less...
		I guess opportunity.
		You know, I asked them why they haven't reopened and they were like, no demand and no staff.
		And I'm like, aren't there people who need jobs?
		Like, what the fuck's going on?
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		It's over.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		How are you feeling after that interaction with the cop?
unidentified		It was kind of surreal because it didn't feel like I was engaging with a cop, you know?
		Uh, and he had like a high vis vest on that said police on it, but just his attitude demanding I back up into a busy road with no vision.
		And I was telling him, no, I'm not doing that.
		And then he was kind of, he was kind of doing like the provocation where if you ever had it happen to you, someone gets in your face and then they say, get the F out of my face, even though they're getting in your face.
		It's like, they want a reason to act out.
		Uh, it was, it was crazy.
		I mean, I don't know.
		It was funny, too, the story with the police officer dolphin diving and doing a commando role over an acorn kind of dropped the same day.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the one guy in the chat was like, PTSD is not a laughing matter.
		And that's true, too, because some of these guys might be going through, like, God knows what kind of trauma on the back end or what they saw beforehand.
		I kind of, I understand what you're, what you experienced.
		Cause the first thing I'm thinking is like, well, what'd you pull on the exit?
		And he wanted you to get out.
		Cause that was, there's another way to go in, but just do what the cop says.
		Don't aggravate the cop.
		But like, I don't know.
		I'm intentions.
		I feel like tensions are, are up right now.
unidentified		Yeah.
		To say the least.
		Amen.
		Hey, peace.
		Thank you very much for the call.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Thanks for calling, man.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Good to hear you're alive.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Glad you're alright.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Cheers, man.
unidentified		We're both alive.
		Thank you, guys.
		Have a good night.
		Cheers.
		Likewise, man.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Alrighty.
unidentified		Can't read your name.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Romanation, I can read your name.
unidentified		How are you doing?
unidentified		What's going on, guys?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		How you doing?
		Love to hear your voice, man.
		You have a great microphone.
unidentified		It's got the radio voice, too.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Whatever you're using is quality.
unidentified		That's amazing, because I have the same one that Tim has.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		SM7B is high quality.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		High quality.
unidentified		Oh, absolutely.
		Absolutely.
		So my question is for failed basketball coach Phil Jackson here.
		With the news about Trump's team being spied on by foreign intelligence communities, Which we already knew.
		Do you think this is a reason why he took classified documents to Mar-a-Lago?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Tim was saying that earlier, and I think so.
		I mean, it sounds like a good theory.
		I mean, obviously, I don't have any more information than anyone else does, but it sounds reasonable.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Wouldn't he just make copies of it, though, and leave them behind so they didn't have a paper trail?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Donald Trump?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		No.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		You'd be like, that's mine!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No, no, it's not that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		He wants the hard, physical, government-printed documents.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Because you need the original document.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Right, to prove it.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because if he prints them out, they'll be like, he fabricated those.
unidentified		Yep.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They're mine!
		They were always mine!
		I don't have the same one that Tim does.
		I don't have the same one.
unidentified		It was an estate team that sent me.
		I have a good voice.
		That's funny.
		I appreciate it.
		So if there was, let's say there was like exculpatory evidence that cleared his name in any of the cases or anything that he's going through, could Trump declare himself a whistleblower?
		And are there any laws against that?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, when you look at what they're doing to Donald Trump, it's clear they're not operating within the law, so I don't know what the point would be.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
		I'm of the same opinion.
		When it comes to what is or is not legal, it honestly is less relevant than what they can actually get the government to actually enforce, is more than the question.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Or they can get the people to believe.
		Because with the media, you know, they'll tell people, this is fake, this is fake, this is fake.
		And if they say it enough times, you get people to start to believe it.
unidentified		Yep.
		Yeah, exactly.
		So the very last thing I wanted to say is that, Tim, I will be at the event in Martinsburg.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Right on!
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Sick.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So the other thing is, active elite members are going to have, I don't know if I'm supposed to say this, I'm going to get yelled at.
		Active Elite members, the second floor is for you.
		And it's free of charge, but you have to RSVP.
		So we're sending out an email to Active Elite members that the second floor watch party, there's going to be 10 seats.
		I think we may have already done this.
		I don't know.
		10 seats in the front row for the live show, Elite members.
		And then, uh, second floor is, I think there's gonna be 50 capacity for elite members, and that's free.
		Like, you show up, you can come in if you're an elite member.
		And the general idea moving forward with the space is, we're not there yet, but elite members can come and go as they please.
		You'll have a keycard, you go, beep, and then you can walk in and hang out, play games, watch TV.
		It's not going to be ridiculously active there other than it's a club, and we're hoping once a month, we're hoping to do exactly what we're doing on March 5th once a month.
		We can get in the full swing of things.
		These events will be, like, we lose money doing them, but I think it's just healthy for everything we're doing.
		And Martinsburg, West Virginia and our plans for anti-Times Square and all that to get started with pulling people in and it'll help.
		I think it'll just help in general for everybody but hopefully people become elite members and then hang out at the club and play games and we've got poker with the boys in the wor- I'm sorry it's called debate me.
		Excuse me.
		The new card game, Debate Me, is in the works.
		Dane's helping us work on it, and so we may have that out not too long.
		You know, we just gotta get it done, but yeah.
		Excited.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		It's, uh, to clarify, we're gonna do the live show on that Tuesday on the third floor?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		That's what it is?
unidentified		Yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		And there'll be ten people up there that are live audience?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No.
unidentified		No live audience?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Sixty people on the third floor live audience?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Fifty.
		Fifty general membership.
		If you're a member, you could buy a ticket.
		Those tickets are a hundred bucks each, and there's 50 of them.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		That's all on the third floor?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Elite members have the dedicated front.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Oh, and then they got the second floor, they can go hang out on like a lounge.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Second floor is the lounge, elite members only.
		And the general idea is that, like, if you're an elite member, you're in the club.
		And so second floor is going to be the club.
		We're going to have like a, man, I got a frog in my throat.
		Second floor is going to have skate stuff, which is going to be our private skate shop, which means there will be someone working there.
		There will be someone stocking drinks and everything for our members.
		We will probably lose money doing this.
		That's why it costs a hundred bucks a month to be an elite member and to get access to it.
		But hopefully it helps build community and helps bring life into the area and just get to that point of expansion.
		I'm hoping that there's just somewhere for people to go and hang out.
		Because I know, like, you know, ten years ago I'd just be like, well I'm done with work, what the fuck am I supposed to do?
		Where do I go?
		You know, like, I don't want to go to a bar.
		I don't want to go eat food.
		You want to go somewhere, hang out.
		And so I'd go hang out in the hacker spaces.
		So, you know, there'll be that component.
		Someone might be in there painting a picture, doing a jigsaw puzzle, playing video games.
		Maybe someone will be playing Fallout or something.
		We want to get some skeeball machines, put a poker table up there and play card games.
		Yeah, and then, uh, the idea is it'll probably have, like, general hours of, like, 10 a.m.
		to, like, 10 p.m.
		Or, you know, probably 11 p.m.
		So you can hang out and watch the show or whatever.
		And then we're gonna have, like, probably a rotating staff.
		But for, uh...
		Elite members, you will get a key card, walk up to the door and go beep, and the door will open for you and you walk in.
		And then they're all, that's it.
		And then for people who want to come and like buy skate stuff, they can buzz and then the staff member can invite them up.
		But those people can't come into the lounge.
		They can just stand at the top of the stairs.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		What about guests for the elite members?
		Is there anything worked out?
		Can they bring a one plus one or anything like that?
unidentified		Nope.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		So if you, it's just one beep, one person?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		One beep, one person.
		If you've got a friend who wants to come, they've got to be a member, but we maybe do something like day passes.
		And the reason is, If you're taking up space at the lounge, you are costing money for the staff members.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		$20 for the day or something.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, something like that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Or, I don't know, $10.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		At least $20.
unidentified		$20?
unidentified		Yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		$30.
unidentified		$30.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		Here's $30.
		Can I get a $40?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So the idea is we're creating a mini social club in New York.
		In all these big cities, the ultra-elites spend 50 to 100 grand a year on these social clubs.
		And I've been invited to them, like Soho Club.
		And you go up there, and there's the guy who owns this magazine.
		There's the guy who owns this airline.
		And you can walk right up and be like, hey, nice to meet you.
		You're a member of the club?
		Drinks are free, they got cigars, they're hanging out.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I keep thinking about the Illuminati.
		It feels like the Illuminati, or like Freemasonry.
		It's just a bunch of dudes get together and talk about stuff.
		That's what it was in the beginning.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, these social clubs are like that.
		I went to this club, and there was a guy who was the head of marketing for a major advertising firm.
		And it's like, we're hanging out, and he's like, what are your ideas?
		And I'm like, this is crazy.
		This is why people spend $50,000 a month to be a member of this club.
		Because you go and sit down, and there's the guy who owns the Huffington Post.
		Sitting right there.
		So we want to create something like that for a hundred bucks a month.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And if people, a lot of people don't realize that...
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		A big portion of quote-unquote luck is who you know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Access.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And access and connections.
		So if you spend your time around people that are broke, you're gonna be broke.
		If you spend your time around people that are not doing anything, that are not actively doing things in their life, you're gonna end up sitting around not doing stuff.
		Who you associate with really, really, really matters.
unidentified		It's so important.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		One of the secrets to being rich is to stand next to a rich person.
		And it's true.
		Watch the show The Real Hustle.
		Because one of the things they do is they open a pop-up store where they sell designer lotions.
		They take Jergens, squirt it into a bottle, and then give it a fancy name and sell it for ten times the price.
		So, I've told this story before.
		I know people...
		Who are rich because they know rich people.
		And what they'll do is they facilitate trades between the rich people.
		Dude, there are people who are like, I make designer tops in my spare time.
		And I'm like, how much do you make a year?
unidentified		500,000.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		How?
		Well, because when I make a top, it's worth $10,000.
		That's it.
		The same top you can buy from the street corner that was made by a human being, but because they determine its value as high worth, they can sell it to a rich person because they know rich people.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And that's the thing.
		The networking is what matters because it doesn't, it's not that the thing is worth that much.
		It's that someone will pay it.
		So if you know people that will part, that have that, have a lot of money and are willing to part with it for whatever reason.
		Money launder.
		Well, I mean, it could be laundering, but but also, I mean, it's like you can just make something.
		You can just make something that is like low intensity to make low overhead.
		And then like Tim said, charge ten grand for it.
unidentified		It's a pleasure you buy it.
		For example, the water at the airport, it's like ten bucks.
		The water at the supermarket is one dollar.
		It's the same exact water.
		It changes environment.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We should get to the next caller.
unidentified		We should.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Roma, thank you very much.
unidentified		Thank you.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		See you then, man.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Thanks for calling in.
unidentified		Cheers, mate.
unidentified		See you in Martinsburg.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Alrighty, let's see who's up next.
unidentified		Gotta read these names.
		That's a good one.
		OG Crackpot, what's going on?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Real quick, just to clarify, because someone asked.
		It's not an additional club, you're already in it as long as you're paying $100.
		So it's gonna be like, we've gotta work this all out, but the general idea is it's multifaceted.
		If someone shows up at the club and says, I want to be a member of this club, they can join the club.
		If someone is an elite member of TimCast.com, then you get club access.
		If someone is a member of the Boonies at a certain tier, you get access.
		The Boonies is going to be the skate thing.
		Basically, it is like the social connection for all the different things we're doing.
		And the general idea is if you're already paying for it, you pay for it one time, we'll give you access.
		So, that being said, like, if someone is an elite member at TimCast.com, we will give you an account for the boonies.
		Like, you don't gotta pay five times for each different website.
		Granted, if you're a $10 member of TimCast.com, and you wanna be a member of the boonies, then it's another $10.
		The elite club is like the social club access universal skeleton key idea.
		And we'll probably end up losing money on it, but if we build community, I think it'll be worth it, You know.
		I think it'll generate the value in the long run.
		Anyway.
unidentified		OG Crackpot, what's up?
		How's it going?
		Thank you for having me on.
		Happy Ash Wednesday, everyone.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		Happy Ash Wednesday.
		So a little bit of background to my question.
		My abuela fled from Cuba during the Castro revolution and before that, a couple of my great
		grandparents fled Spain during the Spanish Civil War.
		And my question is, do you foresee a mass exodus of Americans if and when the Civil
		War hits?
		And if so, what country do you believe Americans will flock to in this scenario?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's already happening and El Salvador.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		You know, if I kind of agree, I've actually thought about going to another country, and if I'm thinking about it, then probably other people.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There are people online that you know of who have already done this.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Max Keiser blatantly is like, move to El Salvador, do it now, don't wait.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		And that's a lot having to do with the economic advantage, Bitcoin and all that stuff.
		Bitcoin hitting $52K is good news.
		By April, it might be $100K to $200K, and then might drop back down to like $70K or $80K.
		I don't know.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I don't want to tell anybody to do anything.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But El Salvador's crime, it's the safest, what is it, safest country in the Americas now or something like that?
unidentified		It's amazing what Bukele did.
unidentified		It was the most dangerous country in all America, and now it's the safest one.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
		So there's already people who have been fleeing.
		I don't know that it is, like, to the tune of millions, like a mass exodus.
		And it may stop, I don't know.
		But you ask yourself, why were there Jews who remained in Germany after all this stuff was going down?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		It's the normalcy bias.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		But it's also, where would I go, what would I do anyway?
		I mean, if you get a job here in the United States, you can't just move to El Salvador.
		Like, where are you going to find work?
		Where are you going to eat?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Where are you going to get a passport?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That being said...
		Time to start figuring things out.
		The last thing I would say is abandon the United States, you know?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I don't like the idea of fleeing.
		Maybe going somewhere to create something good elsewhere is fine.
		You can do that anytime you want anyway.
		Running away from the greatest country in the history of Earth is like not... Yeah, like running from commies?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Oh man.
unidentified		Nah.
		Such a pussy.
		Hide them.
		Hopefully there are good solar jobs down in El Salvador.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		What kind of jobs?
unidentified		Solar, I'm a field engineer.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		I would imagine 100% considering the Bitcoin mining operations they want.
		If they can- Reducing your costs for Bitcoin mining through like solar or like- Yeah, they use geothermal in China.
		Because it's essentially free energy.
		It's not literally free energy.
		It is the heat from the earth Boils water and spins a turbine, so they don't need to burn anything to make it happen.
		They literally just pull the heat out of the earth, which is there, and convert that energy into electricity, dramatically reducing the cost of mining Bitcoin, and so they can sell it a massive profit.
		Solar would be a good option as well.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Look at the solar towers where the panels go up the tower like the leaves on a tree.
unidentified		Oh yeah, we're talking about VFBs, right?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		That's cool, VFB solar.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You ever see a wave generator?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		They're turbines that they put on the coasts, and when the waves come in and out, it spins the turbines generating electricity.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And it does both ways, too, doesn't it?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Crazy.
		That's crazy.
		I think in Denmark they have a lot of those.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		That's where they fill it up, and then it drains out, and it fills up and drains out.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		They also have little buoys underwater that are, like, attached by a cable with propellers on them that just constantly get pulled.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the buoys.
unidentified		That's crazy.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Off Scotland coast, they do that.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		They're underwater, and as the tide comes in, it spins a turbine.
		Those are cool.
		Look at that, dude.
		That's crazy.
		That's all it is.
		Propeller underwater.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		That's, like, really an unta- I mean, that's probably dangerous for the sea life and stuff, but an untapped amount of electricity coming in off of those.
unidentified		It's been running since 2008, apparently.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Just finding ways to make things spin.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		That's all it is.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Uh, I, I, we, we got to figure out some kind of like El Salvador trip somehow.
		It's tough.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I was talking to Luke about that.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		He's down.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's a five hour flight.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		We go interview Bukele.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Not as easy to do.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Luke said it was.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		No, it's not easy to do.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We've been talking about interviewing Bukele.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		How long are you going to be there?
unidentified		For one week only.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		That's awesome.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Have you been there before?
unidentified		No.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Dude, that's gonna be sweet.
unidentified		I know.
unidentified		I'm so excited.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man.
unidentified		We should.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		We should prioritize it, too.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		There's no point in waiting around, really.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's just too difficult to do these travel shows.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's ridiculously expensive.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Maybe we could do a Central America tour.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		This is why the external events are so hard to do.
		Like...
		Going to Des Moines was insanely expensive.
		I think it was a hundred grand or something.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		All those hotels?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, because hotels for what, eight or ten people?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		For a week plus.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		For a week, renting equipment, building a studio, and then the only way to get there for us is a private jet, because we had to fly on a Wednesday, or on a Tuesday, and get there on a Wednesday.
		So we had to have a private jet waiting for us after the show, and those are insanely expensive.
		Yeah, not to mention flying back on a Monday.
		Right.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Not to mention Kellan getting up to the plane and being like, sorry Kellan, not today.
unidentified		Oh, that was Phoenix.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that was Phoenix?
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		But yeah.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Shout out to Kellan.
unidentified		Shout out to Kellan.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		We were all about to get on the private jet and they were like, you've got one too many.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I've been there, dude.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Not on a private jet, but I've been in this situation.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Because there's an additional seat that is the bathroom.
		The toilet actually has a seat on it.
		You can sit on it.
		And they were like, we can call it in.
		It'll take two hours.
		And I was like, it's three in the morning.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Opportunity cost.
unidentified		We gotta go.
		Anyways, OG, thank you for calling.
		Thank you.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Thanks, man.
unidentified		Cheers, mate.
		Last up we got Rickram Morrison.
		What up?
		How are you doing?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Sounds like a D&D name.
unidentified		Yeah, don't know how to pronounce that.
		Not too bad.
		And yourselves?
		My question is for the whole panel.
		Both sides have the win condition, whoever strikes first loses.
		But because of the left's anti-natalist policies, they've essentially given the right a second win condition of just survive.
		So how desperate are they going to be getting?
		When's it going to reach critical mass?
		And are they going to be doing things like sending off your kids to war in order to drain your ability to fight back?
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You know, I don't know, but perhaps we should be saying right now instead of vote, we should be saying breed.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Breed like roaches!
		Five babies!
		Just keep making babies!
		Make a whole bunch.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		It's almost everywhere I turn, they're like, have a baby.
		Now you should have a baby.
		And I'm like, I'm just not in that state of mind, man.
unidentified		I don't know.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You're never in the state of mind.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's not, it's not, it's not reality.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		It's not my place.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		There is no, like, I've decided to have a baby, I guess.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Most people, it's just like, you do it when you do it and you figure it out.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Did you just say it's not my place?
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		I guess not.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Not right now.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, are you, well, I don't know if you have a girlfriend or not, so.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		No, did you, like, just because being a rock star on the road, you were like, I just don't have time?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Uh, well, I mean, I was married for, you know, a few years and we tried, but she couldn't, like, we did a lot of miscarriages.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		She couldn't conceive.
unidentified		That's sad.
unidentified		I'm sorry.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Do you have kids?
unidentified		No, I don't.
unidentified		I'm 24.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Are you planning on it?
unidentified		I would love to.
		That's more Joey's decision.
		I'm always ready.
		Oh, um, what was that?
		Like, my husband is still not ready.
		Oh, cool.
		Like, we are waiting until we are settled in one place.
		But I'm always kind of ready.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		That's a good move.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		15 babies!
unidentified		Each!
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Just start cranking them out.
unidentified		Yeah, having a little army of babies.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		A little army, that's right.
ian crossland ▲ ● ▼		Have two now so that you don't have to have 15 in 30 years.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Well, have 15 because that means the chance of one of them becoming a rock star is actually pretty good.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		If you start with four, so you have a fire team, then you move up to...
		To eight and twelve, and then you have a squad.
		Fifteen's a great goal, but twelve is a squad.
		You're a platoon leader, you know.
unidentified		That's how you roll.
		Anything else to add, my friend?
		The only other thing I would like to request is that Tim read a little bit more about Canadian involvement in the Civil War, because we were a significant portion of it, to the point where we tried to get the British to attack the Union Army, attack the Union, and we were up for grabs at the end of the Civil War because of our involvement.
		Ulysses S. Grant wanted Canada for payment.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		So, this Friday, I believe, we have a guy from the California secessionist movement coming in, and we're talking to a few Civil War historians to join the show, The Culture War, to talk about, with the California secessionist movement, the current ideas around secession, in the context of What happened with secession in 1861, and then the conversation of how would this translate to today if something happened?
		I think it'll be a really, really fun show.
		Hopefully we're gonna be able to get someone, but that being said, Gettysburg is 40 minutes away from where we are, and I'm like, there's probably 300 Civil War historians in Gettysburg who would love to come on and talk about the Civil War.
		So it's gonna be a fucking awesome show on Friday.
		But we'll talk about Canada.
unidentified		Oh, I'm looking forward to it.
		By the way, one last note.
		Each one of your presidents was actually assassinated by either a socialist or somebody French.
		So, keep that in mind.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Hate them both.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		You're saying the CIA agents who killed Kennedy were French communists?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He had ties.

tim pool ▲ ● ▼		It's been a blast.
unidentified		Thank you so much.
tim pool ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely.
		And we're really excited for March 5th.
		It's coming up quick.
		Yeah.
		It's going to be a lot of fun.
		And we've got a lot to do.
		Second floor right now is pretty barren, but we got a couple couches.
		We need to get some TVs, some video games.
		We got a... Here's the reason why it's private.
		If it's a public space, you have a whole bunch of legal rules, and we couldn't even open the doors.
		It's a private space, meaning it's much more just like our house, and we're inviting only members who are like members of the club.
		And so the general idea is, consider it like you're hanging out in someone's house.
		It's not like we're selling anything.
		So we'll probably just buy beers, and if you're old enough, you can have one or whatever, and we'll order pizzas or something like that, but it'll be a lot of fun.
		Super excited.
