tim pool
I gotta tell you guys, I watched this video from our friends over at Clown World on Twitter, and it just... I was so satisfied watching this video.
I was filled with a certain kind of satisfaction.
I want you to watch this video, because I know that all of you will also feel a kind of satisfaction.
And the video is, a guy robbing a Home Depot, so a bunch of dudes beat the fucking shit out of him.
serge du preez
Good, dude.
tim pool
Here you go.
serge du preez
Good.
unidentified
Fucking scumbag.
serge du preez
Yeah.
You just walked out with all this shit.
unidentified
That's what you're supposed to do.
serge du preez
Shame on you.
unidentified
Asshole.
serge du preez
Be careful.
unidentified
You're not fucking walking away with that fucking beer.
Get the fuck.
You're not fucking walking away with it, gank.
YOU AREN'T FUCKING TAKING NOTHING, ASSHOLE!
YOU AREN'T FUCKING TAKING NOTHING!
GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!
I'M GOING!
tim pool
He's still trying to steal it!
unidentified
YOU AREN'T TAKING NOTHING!
DROP IT!
YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!
tim pool
He tries stealing it and they knock it out.
unidentified
It's not over yet.
They beat the shit out of him.
They beat the shit out of the crowd.
Get out of the fucking crowd.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
It's all it takes.
On the fucking ground.
tim pool
They're going to call the police.
The cops aren't going to do shit.
But that guy ain't coming back to that Home Depot no more.
And you know what I was thinking about when I saw this?
Look, man.
I watched this video from a Bronx Tale.
That's a fuckin' movie.
I watched Casino this past weekend.
Three fuckin' hours!
Holy shit!
Have you guys seen Casino?
ian crossland
No, I've seen lots of clips from it, though.
tim pool
Dude, you gotta watch Casino.
serge du preez
Yeah, you should watch that.
unidentified
Damn, dude.
Robert De Niro.
ian crossland
I went on a Don Rickles kick a few months ago.
tim pool
Scorsese.
Holy shit.
I love the scene where they catch the card cheats and he just fuckin' smashes his hand with the mallet.
He's like, which hand do you do the tapping with?
unidentified
My right?
tim pool
Do it with your left?
I don't know.
unidentified
Bam!
tim pool
And he just smashes his hand.
And look, look.
I wouldn't actually want to be in a situation where I smash someone's hand like that.
But the reason why it's satisfying is I think all of us are just so fucking fed up with these scumbags taking advantage of our kindness and our goodwill.
Watching these guys just say, fuck no.
We gotta pay what we pay because of people like you.
And they beat the shit out of them, they pushed them, they shoved them, they stopped them, they hold them down, they say, call the police.
It's the right thing to do.
But you know what I'm thinking, man?
Were we better off or worse off when the mafia beat the shit out of people?
Because I'm not a fan of shakedowns.
Like, the reality of the mafia is not some glorified movie.
No, they were robbing people, they were going to stores, they were stealing from them.
My question is, as bad as that was, are we better or worse off now?
I almost would rather have a couple of goons show up and be like, yes, we're gonna do you're gonna pay me and no one's gonna fuck with you.
And I'd be like, all right, I guess.
Other than what we have now, where could you imagine if there was still a mafia?
What would happen to these dudes who raided the store stealing everything when they run into a clothing shop and they'll just grab clothes?
Mother f- holy shit.
Mafia dudes would show up to their homes with baseball bats and crack some kneecaps and it would never happen again.
And that's not a good thing!
I'm not saying that that's a good thing, I'm just saying we are worse!
We are worse than that!
ian crossland
The criminal coordination ability on the internet now is like post mafia so like they can organize around like it used to just be strong dudes hanging out on the corner with baseball bats that was the mafia basically I mean but now you got dudes with like Facebook groups that can coordinate be like the guys at the coffee shop on 4th and 11th let's meet there at this time and fuck him up kind of thing and they can... Dude that scene from a Bronx Tale?
tim pool
When the guys are being all loud, because the bartender won't serve them.
unidentified
Oh yeah.
tim pool
They're not dressed properly.
And so the mob boss walks in, what's the problem?
And he's like, look man, the biker guy's like, I just want to have a beer.
And he's like, spoken like a gentleman.
Serve them their beers.
And then they get the beers, shake them up, and spray the bartender.
And he goes, okay, now yous gotta leave.
And the guy's like, fuck you.
And he's like, okay.
Closes the door, locks it, and goes, nows you can't leave.
And then a bunch of good ol' boys come in the back with baseball bats and beat the fuck out of him.
And you know why I like that scene?
Because the mob boss looked at them and said, I know your clothes, you're underdressed, but you're a gentleman and you will be allowed to drink in my establishment.
That was honor.
And those guys spat in his face and he says, okay, now you get the stick.
And I'm just like...
The mob boss was actually giving him a chance.
serge du preez
Yeah, first he offered to let him leave, and then... Well, oh right, now you gotta leave.
Exactly.
tim pool
He was like, you can have your beer because you're a good guy.
I appreciate that.
You asked politely.
That's what a man does.
Then they fuck with him.
He says, now you gotta leave.
And they say, fuck you, no.
And he goes, okay, now you can't.
It's like he gave him an opportunity.
He didn't just jump the gun.
He said, you want to fuck around and find out?
You fuck around and find out.
But we got too many of these...
Like, it's the legal nature of this country.
It's because police officers will... Look, how much you want to bet?
When the cops showed up, they arrested the guys who stopped the shoplifter.
ian crossland
I wouldn't bet on it, but that did cross my mind that that could have possibly happened.
tim pool
They're like, fuck you, you thief!
We're gonna stop you!
The cops show up.
What happened?
And the shoplifter goes, they have a video of them assaulting me in a mob.
And the cop goes, is that true?
Show me the video.
This guy goes, look, officer, he was stealing.
He goes, wow, it's a video of you assaulting a guy.
You're under arrest.
hannah claire brimelow
Do you remember that story about two female Lululemon employees?
I think it was in Georgia.
They got fired because someone had come in and done the thing where they, like, grab all of the clothes that are on the front display and the company fired them because they said our policy is explicitly that you do not engage with shoplifters, you let them run away, probably because the company would face liability if they got injured or something like that, like workman's comp.
serge du preez
That's what they say.
hannah claire brimelow
That's what they say, which is interesting, right?
And so there was this social media backlash where people were saying, you know, they're trying to stop people from stealing your products and you fired them.
You were punishing them.
tim pool
We're gonna play, I'm gonna play this.
We played it before, I'm playing it again.
Because people were like, Tim messed the best part.
unidentified
part non-planet.
Oh, yeah.
tim pool
So good.
jameson ellis
These are the days of legit badasses, though.
unidentified
Yup.
tim pool
Wearing a suit.
That's what a suit's supposed to be for.
unidentified
Watch this.
tim pool
So good.
unidentified
Fellas, you should not dress properly.
You're gonna have to leave.
Properly?
Jimmy!
What's wrong with the way we're dressed?
What's up?
This gentleman ain't dressed right.
I asked him to leave.
tim pool
Is there a problem, then?
unidentified
Not a problem.
As your man here says, we're not properly dressed.
Like our money ain't green.
We just want a couple of beers.
A few beers, that's it.
That's it.
We'll be on our way.
We ain't looking for trouble.
Spoken like a gentleman.
Give me a fist.
Go ahead.
I appreciate it.
tim pool
Spoken like a gentleman.
unidentified

I'll tell you where the fuck we leave, alright?
Look at all this shit over here!
Hey!
Oh, you again, huh?
That wasn't very nice. I think he's gotta leave.
I'll tell you when the fuck we leave, alright? Get the fuck away from me.
I'm just kidding.

All their courage and strength was drained right from their bodies.
They had a reputation for breaking up bars, but they knew that instant they made a fatal mistake.
This time they walked into the wrong bar.

Damn.
If only we had people like Longerson to fight like this.
jameson ellis
Not.
Not physically, but in the same spirit.
unidentified
Look at that.
The kids kick the shit out of him.
Kick him in the groin.
Come on, baby!
Kick him in the groin!
Kick him in the groin.
I can hear you, motherfucker!
Look at me.
Come on.
I'm the one who did this to you.
Remember me.
Holy fuck.
Come on, come on, Sonny.
Come on, let's go, you guys.
tim pool
Get the fuck out of here!
Let's, uh...
unidentified
That ruined my whole fucking life.
Damn.
Come on, let's get the fuck out of here.
Sonny, get out of here.
Sonny, get the fuck out of here.
Come on, come on.
tim pool
Let's break this down.
jameson ellis
Be gone.
tim pool
You don't live in this neighborhood.
You come into this neighborhood acting a fool.
And you want a beer, and the guy says, okay, I'll give you a beer.
Spoken like a gentleman.
Then, you spit in the face, figuratively, literally, of the bartender, of the guys being polite, and he says, okay, now leave.
And you still say, fuck you.
And so they beat the shit out of you.
Look, I don't know that we'd be better off, I don't know that we're in a good place when you live in a kind of society where a guy's gonna beat the shit out of his vigilante justice, but I will tell you right now, our country, our society would be substantially better, crime would be way lower if we had this instead of what we have now with these mass looting gangs.
Like, I watched a video, I think it was also from Clown World, guy in a pickup truck, two guys, back their truck up into, I think it's like a Walmart, smashing the sliding doors, walk in, lift up an ATM, throw it in the back of the truck and take off.
And I'm like... Yeah, I see that one.
You saw that one?
serge du preez
Yeah, I saw the same one.
tim pool
If Chaz was running town, those guys, this would never happen.
hannah claire brimelow
I think I've told this story on air before, but when my parents first immigrated to the US, they were first married and living in New York and they wanted to buy property in Brooklyn.
This is in the 1980s.
And they were looking at different places and the real estate person took them around.
And there's one neighborhood, I don't remember which one now, and she was like, and this neighborhood is very safe.
It's controlled by the mob.
And it was interesting, right?
Because it was like, this is how we know it's safe because the mob is in control.
But, you know, unfortunately, it's kind of like the it's better to know your enemy proverb.
Like, this is a system with structure as opposed to just random criminals all acting at random times, which makes it so you could run into crime at any moment.
You don't know what's going to happen to your property.
ian crossland
Like you say, vigilante justice is better than no justice.
But how far does it go?
Who's the vigilante?
Are they like, hey, you're looking at me weird.
Take him out.
tim pool
It's not even that.
It's like the fucking shopkeeper who is, they're trying to murder him.
And then he defends himself.
So the police came and arrest him and put him in prison.
ian crossland
I'm actually fucked.
I really enjoy watching, this is maybe some twisted to me, but watching like bullies get fucked up and like watching like a dude mess with somebody with his hand and then he, but I'm like sick in this way.
Like I want to see his hand get crushed into paste so he'll never be able to use it again.
Like full torturous retribution kinda.
And I love it.
I'm like, yes, good.
Less bullies.
Less behavior like that.
There is no tolerance for that kind of behavior.
But then you see these things where someone steals, they get their hand cut off, and you're like, how far do we take society?
tim pool
I'm sorry, dude, people love it.
This scene from Casino, when he deals with scammers, 5 million views.
Should we jump to the best part?
unidentified
I like watching real bully fights and real bullies getting destroyed.
tim pool
Here we go.
It's quiet, it's quiet, listen.
unidentified
Wait, wait, we gotta set it up.
We gotta set it up.
Hand to hand to paste.
Alright, so you're right handed.
Can you do that with both hands?
No.
Can't do it with both hands.
No, sir.
Can you do it with your left hand?
Oh, I never try.
serge du preez
Hand to hand to paste.
tim pool
All right, so you're right handed.
unidentified
Oh my god!
Now you're gonna have to learn with your left hand.
tim pool
Now you're gonna have to learn with your left hand.
unidentified
It's a hundred, 110.
tim pool
This is great.
Dude, this movie was great.
That's the other cheater.
unidentified
What a Don Rickles best.
tim pool
He's always great, though.
Count the money in privacy, right?
Guess where he's bringing this motherfucker?
unidentified
Have a good time? Yes. You don't want to count the money in privacy, you know you're in a lot of trouble. Count the
money in privacy, right? Guess where he's bringing this motherfucker.
Look what they did to my hair, man.
Alright, I'm gonna give you a choice.
You can either have the money and the hammer, or you can walk outta here.
You can't have both.
What do you want?
I just wanna get outta here.
And don't forget to tell your friends what happens if they fuck around here.
You understand?
I'm sorry, I made a bad mistake.
You're fuckin' right you made a bad mistake.
If you come back here, we catch either one of you, we're gonna break your fuckin' heads and you won't walk outta here.
You see that fuckin' saw?
We're gonna use it.
You don't fuck around in this place.
You got it?
Yeah.
Get outta here.
Thank you.
tim pool
People love it.
They love the idea that bad guys get caught.
They love the idea.
Batman cracks skulls, you know what I mean?
ian crossland
But it's not just like bad... The fantasy is not just bad guy gets stopped.
It's that bad guy realizes in the torture that he suffers after he's caught why he shouldn't have been a bad guy.
unidentified
Yeah.
ian crossland
And watching him just, like, paint that horrid, painful transition.
tim pool
In the beginning of the movie, when they're introducing De Niro's character, and he's at the bar, and he, like, looks over to the guy to his right, and he's like, excuse me, is this your pen?
And he's like, yeah, what the fuck?
And he's like, I just want to make sure you didn't lose it.
And he was like, well, how about you go fucking shove that thing up your ass?
And he was like, what?
And then Joe Pesci just grabs it and just murders him with it.
And it was like, that's fucked up.
But, like, what I do like about these scenes is that Robert De Niro's character, he's just, like, trying to be nice.
Like, oh, sorry, man.
I just thought it was a nice pen.
I didn't want you to lose it.
And then the bat, like, the asshole acts up for no reason.
unidentified
I mean, Joe Pesci stabbed him in the neck several times.
tim pool
I mean, that's pretty fucked up.
But it's like, Robert De Niro's character in this, he's a tough guy, but he tries to be a good guy.
And the same thing is true with Sonny in A Bronx Tale.
He's a tough guy who will fuck you up, But he's honorable.
So, you know what, man?
We were better off.
Not that it was good, but we were better off.
jameson ellis
You know, this might be a little bit off topic, but I also like the stories in American History X where you have Edward Norton does all the stuff that he does, then he goes to prison and he winds up getting, you know...
For all intents and purposes he got fucked in the ass, you know, and he's he he went through but it's it's a redemption story, right?
but then it has a tragic ending at the same time, but But I love those redemption stories, too.
Yeah And you know and I and I don't think I don't think that That America's too far gone.
I'm not I'm not blackpilled.
I don't either but you know And I think about, so have y'all seen, have y'all seen yet, um, uh, Cobra Kai?
So I'm an 80s kid.
tim pool
No, I saw the first season.
unidentified
Okay.
jameson ellis
So Cobra Kai is like one of the most anti-woke shows that you can probably watch.
It is freaking amazing.
Um, but, uh, highly, highly, highly recommend it.
But it, it, it makes you like, Like, long for those days.
Like, you know, where we used to be able to say, oh, you know, when I was a kid, we used to play Smear the Queer.
Now, whenever I say that, that has to be edited out of whatever podcast I'm on.
serge du preez
That's so true.
jameson ellis
That's what we called it.
It was called Smear the Queer.
tim pool
What is that game?
jameson ellis
What is it?
serge du preez
Oh, I mean, yeah, it's basically... Different kind of iterations, but like, yeah.
jameson ellis
Yeah, it's basically kind of like tag, you know, but like you're the queer, or sometimes you can play it with a football too, but like if you have it, you have to like run, and the whole goal is to basically tackle you, so it's kind of like full contact tag.
serge du preez
Yeah, pretty much.
jameson ellis
It's one of the most pointless games, but it's fun as hell.
serge du preez
But it's hurtful.
hannah claire brimelow
Did it get a woke rebranding?
Or do kids just not play that game anymore?
jameson ellis
I mean, I don't, I don't think that kids, kids don't hardly roughhouse anymore at all.
I mean, now it's got to be fun, fun, fair and safe.
tim pool
Sarcastable.
You see that one in South Park?
unidentified
No.
tim pool
Where they're all wearing bras.
serge du preez
Oh yeah.
tim pool
And they've like, they're chasing a balloon or something because football's too dangerous.
So they sarcastically just say it's like, Oh, why don't we have them wear bras while we're at it and chase a balloon.
And they're like, okay.
serge du preez
That's a great idea.
jameson ellis
Has it really gotten so bad, which I don't know if y'all have seen this, but has it really gotten so bad that now the NFL is considered sports entertainment like WWE?
Is it rigged, and is it really considered sports entertainment?
hannah claire brimelow
But they also get more commercial breaks and everything.
If you were to watch a high school or college game, it's a different structure than the NFL, right?
This is not my area of expertise, but NFL players actually take more time on the sidelines because there's all these commercial breaks, from what I understand.
They're not like under the same kind of physical pressure.
jameson ellis
I don't know whenever you're trying to go to college.
tim pool
Let's go to colors!
serge du preez
Yeah, we should.
I'm laughing at this post from Dirt Stash.
They told us we couldn't play Smear the Queer, so we switched to Tag the Fag, which is pretty good.
tim pool
I like that.
I've got some trivia for you.
serge du preez
Alright, hit it with it.
tim pool
Do you know what the Latin root of fag is?
unidentified
You know what the word is, right?
tim pool
What does it mean?
It means a bundle of sticks.
serge du preez
A.K.A.
Fashies.
tim pool
Fashies is the same Latin root as faggot.
The same thing.
serge du preez
So the Brits get their word for cigarettes as well.
hannah claire brimelow
Yeah, I was going to say, it's a cigarette.
tim pool
A bundle of sticks.
serge du preez
A bundle of little sticks, A.K.A.
smokes.
tim pool
The fascists had a bundle of sticks and we sort of took that away from them.
Made it something very, very different.
serge du preez
We reclaimed the term, so to speak.
tim pool
Well, I don't know if we reclaimed it.
jameson ellis
Oh, and now that term has been canceled.
unidentified
Yeah.
serge du preez
All right.
Romanation.
How you doing, man?
I hope you're well.
unidentified
What's going on, crew?
It's AK, your favorite guy, here to fulfill all your question needs.
What's going on, Tim?
tim pool
Not much.
unidentified
Sounds good, sounds good.
This question's for the future representative, Jamison Ellis.
Tonight, I'm actually going to go against the grain, all right?
So, I'm not a Texan, but I have a lot of friends and family that are in Texas.
With the issues that we have with the so-called grifters in Congress, said by the so-called esteemed Eyepatch McCain, I speak for my Texan friends when I ask, why should they trust you?
jameson ellis
Yeah, so that's actually a great question.
So the only thing that I can really do, because whether someone decides to vote for me or not, it's going to be a risk either way.
So if you vote for me, it's a risk, right?
That I'm not who I say I am.
If you don't vote for me, then you risk Crenshaw continuing to be Crenshaw.
He's actually got a record.
So what I'm doing differently is because other than giving my word that I'm going to go to Congress and do exactly what I say I'm going to do and represent the people, everybody does that, right?
What we're doing different is we are actually building an accountability coalition.
And it's not going to be run by me or my campaign.
It's going to be run by constituents.
But the whole point of this accountability coalition is to be able to hold me accountable.
And if I don't go to Congress and do exactly what I say I'm going to do, Then they'll have the numbers to vote my butt out of office and put somebody in there that, you know, they can give somebody another shot.
The problem is right now is that incumbents have a 98% re-election success rate and it doesn't matter how bad they screw up, they're going to get re-elected because they depend on the apathy Of the majority and so we want to change that what we want to do is prove it out here in Texas or here all the way up here but in Texas in Texas too and then we want to roll that out to the rest of the state of Texas because we got to get Texas right first and then once we prove that this type of accountability coalition can be rolled out across a great state of Texas we can start rolling it out in other states but at the end of the day man as I am one voice amongst 435
And I'm not running to be anybody's savior.
I'm not running to be anybody's honored leader or esteemed leader.
I'm not running to be Jesus or pastor.
I'm running to be the representative.
And the moment that I stop representing my constituents, they need to have the numbers to vote my ass out and put somebody in there that will.
serge du preez
Nice.
unidentified
Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Well said.
If I had one other question here, what core principles do you think you share with Crenshaw and what he will or would have done differently in office under similar circumstances?
jameson ellis
That's a hard question to answer just because I don't know how much I truly trust Crenshaw.
I mean, he claims to care about the border.
He claims to care about liberty.
He claims to share, you know, our values as conservatives, but he's actually gone to Congress and proves that he does the exact opposite.
I don't really know that I can truly answer that question honestly because I don't think we have a whole whole lot in common.
I will say this is that I do honor and value his service in our military.
I love the fact that he was willing to sign on that dotted line and was willing to risk his life to keep the torch of Liberty ablaze.
But that was years ago.
Here in 2024, he's refused to debate me.
He's refused to go stand toe-to-toe with me, eye-to-eye, and be held to an account.
And so I don't know what happened to the valor and to the courage that he had because here, what is today?
February, today's 28th or 29th?
28th.
tim pool
Tomorrow's Leap Day!

Yeah, so today's February 28th, here we are in 2024, and he acts like a little bitch.
So I don't know where his courage and valor went, and I don't really know that I can truly answer that question, honestly.
tim pool
We're having a Leap Day party.
unidentified
Cool.
tim pool
Yeah, we got to get candy for, you know, Leap Day William, he trades candy for children's tears.
jameson ellis
Oh my god.
serge du preez
It's sad, kids.
unidentified
It's like an off Halloween.
All right, well, thank you guys for taking my call and I'll see you guys at Martinsburg.
serge du preez
Right on.
Looking forward to it, brother.
tim pool
Yeah, Crenshaw refused to come on the show twice.
serge du preez
Yeah, he did.
That's why.
tim pool
And then he just stopped responding to us.
serge du preez
He's disingenuous to me.
tim pool
Yeah, he's fake.
serge du preez
Yeah.
Anyways, po-tay-toes.
How are you, brother?
Ash, I'm sticking with Stu.
How are you, brother?
Or sister, I don't know.
unidentified
I'm doing well, how about you guys?
serge du preez
Hey, I'm doing all right.
hannah claire brimelow
Excellent. How are you?
unidentified
I'm doing pretty good.
Just got my baby down to bed.
Thanks for taking my call.
My question is for everyone.
So I'm down here in Southern Arizona and we know that illegally immigrating to the United States thrives on businesses paying people under the table, aka with cash.
So with this in mind, do you think that the government steps towards moving us to a cashless society is intentional or a massive oversight in regards to the illegal immigrants?
And should the illegal migrants not be granted amnesty under Biden, what do you think would happen to them if we still push towards a cashless society?
hannah claire brimelow
I think somebody would still pay them in cash.
I think that it's, It's like why are there still video stores in the US?
Well actually there are parts of the country that don't have regular access to internet so they don't depend on streaming.
Just because the majority of people would move to a cashless society doesn't mean that a person who's hiring day laborers wouldn't know to have cash on hand.
It shifts the consumer experience but not necessarily the business experience.
You know, obviously I'm against amnesty.
I don't think Joe Biden should grant it.
Maybe he will at the end of his term just to give, you know, potentially President Trump something else to deal with.
But I think you're, obviously you're probably experiencing this more directly than a lot of us are.
I think the idea that there are ways that people encourage and support illegal migrations, including businesses that hire people who are here illegally, it's difficult to challenge, but unfortunately, I just don't think They would agree to be cashless.
I think they know they would keep cash on hand to support people working on the table.
jameson ellis
Well, and I always think it's kind of funny when I hear the term cashless society, because back whenever I was, you know, getting into Bitcoin and whatnot, one of the biggest selling points for me was, you know, we don't, I don't know of very many people that still carry cash to this day.
Like literally we swipe cards and it's just digits on a screen.
And so, you know, I don't know that it would really make that big of a difference.
I mean, any time that you want to pay somebody for something, you want to give them some kind of, whether it's tangible or intangible, there's always ways to pay people off, to buy people off.
It could be power, it could be money.
Or, you know, like how it is in Houston, you've got a whole group of illegals that will show up to the Home Depot and say, hey, I'll pay you 20 bucks and a six-pack of beer to come and help me do this, and then they'll just do it.
You know, I don't really know that it would make a difference, cashless or not cashless, to be honest.
ian crossland
It doesn't surprise me to think of a government creating a problem and then creating the solution for the problem.
So they're like, oh, we accidentally let in all these people that shouldn't be here.
Let's go to a central bank digital currency so we can monitor the economics and make sure that we can get all those people out.
It's for your safety.
And we're like, well, you just created the fucking problem.
unidentified
Yeah.
hannah claire brimelow
They're not participating.
serge du preez
We're not going cashless.
ian crossland
Yeah.
hannah claire brimelow
Like that would only, you'd only be able to monitor people who are opting into being cashless.
So if you decided to stay off the grid, you just have cash.
serge du preez
Whenever you hear that it's for your own safety thing.
It's always a tell for me.
ian crossland
Yeah.
I don't think that they're intentionally letting people in just so that they can be like, oopsie.
Now we need to do a digital service, but that's a happy, you know, by-product is that you could make that argument.
jameson ellis
I tell you one of the things and this is again just from from a congressional standpoint what we this is one of the reasons why I fully support the fair taxes because it untaxes income and it taxes what we spend not what we earn well what that means is is that those that are over here illegally aren't going to be exempt from is right now we have illegal aliens coming over and they're incentivized to be over here with all the benefits and everything else they can also evade Having to pay taxes as a result.
It doesn't matter if it's a cashless society or not, if we get taxed on what we spend and not what we earn, illegals won't be exempt from it.
So it actually de-incentivizes illegal immigration if we are able to repeal the 16th Amendment, which does away with the progressive income tax and set an active fare tax.
hannah claire brimelow
Also, congrats on having a baby!
That means you're fighting the declining birth rate, and we all owe you a debt of gratitude.
jameson ellis
Yeah, congratulations.
That's amazing.
unidentified
Thank you very much.
And I thank you guys for your input.
serge du preez
That's a good question.
Cheers.
It was a great question.
Thank you very much.
unidentified
Have a good night.
Bye.
Likewise.
Cheers.
tim pool
Thanks for calling in.
serge du preez
All right.
Criminal Aliens.
I agree, Raymond.
I saw you today.
Cheers.
Asmodeus Ake.
How are you?
unidentified
Good.
jameson ellis
Well.
serge du preez
And we all feel like that sometimes, especially lately, so I hear you.
unidentified
Yeah.
So this is actually a question that I wanted to ask one of your earlier guests but wasn't able to get it in, but I guess let's ask the panel instead.
Just what are your thoughts on the utter state of just mainstream Western Christianity and how it's just utterly failed in defending its values and just failed men in general?
And do you think there's any reform going on?
Because I see people like Matt Walsh and Jeff Youngers talk about this too.
They just keep saying get married and have kids when the environment just isn't permissible for that really for men.
It's very unfair and the consequences of divorce are so high and it just...
It's asking someone to get married as a man in this day and age is like asking someone to walk into machine gun fire or charge a trench with a loaded musket.
Well, even prenups can be overturned in court.
And even if a prenup is financial, that may not protect your kids from being transed.
I mean, I'm getting married, too.
hannah claire brimelow
I mean, the thing is, like, if you are feeling blackpilled, that's a very different conversation than how is Western Christianity failing, right?
Like, there are a lot of ways to look at culture in the state of the world right now and say, like, things are awful, and no matter what, everything could go wrong, I could get a prenup, and then You know, the person I marry could cheat and then I could step on a landmine and, you know, I think we all go through periods where it feels like we are up against a very, you know, up against a stack deck, so to speak.
But I think ultimately, like all things, we are challenged and tested and there are reasons why you should identify your values and live them even if the culture tells you that they're bad.
And I think that It's hard to stay optimistic and I think it's easy to find fault like if you're talking about Western Christianity there are a lot of ways that theology has been corrupted or that people's personal sins or greed or ego have come in and led a lot of people astray which creates bigger cultural problems but I think that we're all put on earth to try and make the world better and not worse and so therefore we should try and use the resources at our disposal to not give in to these things.
So yeah, maybe you get a prenup and it gets overturned in court, but hopefully you're with someone who doesn't believe in divorce, who wants to work through problems, who you feel like you've built a strong relationship with and can produce strong children and then, in turn, help build a strong community.
jameson ellis
Yeah.
hannah claire brimelow
That's maybe my optimistic pep talk coming through.
jameson ellis
Yeah, and I'll just say this, and again, I'm coming at it from two perspectives here.
One, as a Christian, and two, as a congressional candidate, is my personal belief is that marriage is a religious institution and government needs to keep its hand out of it.
I understand that government needs to be able to keep track of who's married and who's not.
But one of the biggest things that really irks me is that if you're married, you get tax benefits.
Uh, just simply because you're married.
And, and I think that's a, that's a way for the federal government to kind of use that over our heads.
And that's also why you have people that want to want to change or redefine what marriage actually is.
Uh, whenever marriage existed, uh, and marriage was defined by God before government ever existed.
So that's why I say it's a religious institution.
As far as the churches go, the Western church, um, they've been castrated.
And so we have churches that won't answer questions.
We have churches that won't stand up for the truth.
We basically have, in most trendy churches now, you have TED Talks with God sprinkled in to make people feel good.
And so that's a huge problem.
If you go to China, China, I just know I have to say that too, I say China.
Whenever you go to China where it's against the law to be a Christian and you have the underground church growing, that takes commitment and that takes guts.
I don't think most quote unquote Christians here in America could go to China and be willing to risk their lives to be able to meet and congregate.
Uh, for a church service.
And so I think, I just personally think that the Western church, the American church has been castrated.
ian crossland
I went through like, uh, I think it's, I mean, Christianity needs a reformation to become more widely adopted because people are like realists right now.
They're not, they're not like women are not men.
Dude does not, imaginary man does not live in the sky and impregnate women.
tim pool
And the church doesn't say that.
ian crossland
Yeah, well, they told me that Mary was impregnated by a sky spirit.
And I'm like, all right, look, I need real fucking shit right now because the world is in peril.
And we need that speaking through in our religion as well.
So I think I take the eyes of, rather than worship that guy, Jesus, live like him.
Be like him.
What would he do right now?
Do that.
tim pool
I was never told in Catholic school that Jesus or God were in the sky.
I don't know.
Is that something that happened with your teachings or anything like that?
jameson ellis
No.
tim pool
Hannah Clare?
unidentified
No.
I mean, honestly, I'm not trying to... I think that's how it gets conceptualized, because people think heaven is above, the sky is above.
tim pool
When I was in Catholic school, it was never once uttered that God was in the sky.
ian crossland
The firmament?
Did they ever tell you about the firmament?
tim pool
Well, the firmament separates the upper oceans from the lower oceans, but they never said God was beyond the firmament.
ian crossland
Well, is it heaven up above the firmament?
tim pool
They never said that God was in the sky.
Not once.
serge du preez
Firmament is like Talmud and Torah stuff, right?
ian crossland
I think so.
tim pool
But it's entirely possible there are people who are Christian teachers that don't know what the fuck you're talking about and will say weird shit.
jameson ellis
Well, especially here in America.
So there's a guy that I highly recommend.
His name is Dr. Frank Turek.
I love Dr. Turek.
If you ever get a chance to get him on a show, I highly recommend it.
tim pool
Here's a way to consider it.
Oh, sorry.
jameson ellis
That's okay.
So Dr. Frank Turek, he's an apologist.
He actually uses science.
He has studied all the atheists, all those arguments.
And what was really kind of refreshing, I actually saw you talking about this, how you went from being an atheist to You're not a Christian, but you're more like a deist.
And to me, there's a seeking there.
I know that there's something greater than us.
Don't know what it is, but it's spaceless, timeless.
It operates outside of our space and time.
It's greater than us, which is what we ultimately have to base our moral absolutes on.
Because if it's just based on what we agree to as a society, then that means as a society, if we all of a sudden decide that screwing kids is okay, Then that becomes the law of the land and that's just it's always evil no matter what and there has to be a constant for that but You know, I always like to look at it from a historical standpoint, too You know, that's why I like people like Josh McDowell and Lee Strobel who actually set out to disprove They figured that we could disprove Christianity if we could just disprove that Jesus Did that the things that they say happened to Jesus didn't actually happen and if we could somehow poke holes in that
Then that also means the rest of the Bible is false.
And so they set out to actually disprove, and for Lee Strobel specifically, I don't know if you've seen the movie The Case for Christ, but Lee Strobel specifically spent two years trying to disprove the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus as an atheist.
And at the end of that two years, he had to follow the evidence wherever it led, and he wound up becoming born again and gave his life to Christ.
tim pool
The easiest way, I think, to explain it to somebody is, Ian, are you above Baldur's Gate?
Uh, no, not in the- Outside of.
ian crossland
Up.
Yes.
And you have- Water's Gate exists both within me and without me.
tim pool
And you- So, yeah, right.
Uh, I think there's, like, maybe when people are trying to explain it to children, they'll oversimplify it.
That's a mistake.
I was never told God was in the sky.
I was told that God is everywhere and nowhere within everything, always around you, and... That's what I mean.
ian crossland
That's what I mean by man in the sky.
That concept.
tim pool
Yeah, but that's intentionally derisive.
Like, you don't need to insult people.
ian crossland
Alright, but it's not a man.
It's not a human man.
That's a joke.
I don't know.
Like, we gotta be real.
Are you a human man?
If you want mass adoption, yes, I'm a human man.
tim pool
Are there humans in Baldur's Gate?
ian crossland
No, they're all video game characters.
tim pool
Yes, but they are humans.
In the game, they are called human.
ian crossland
You can put the word human on a video game character, it's still not a human.
tim pool
So, man is created in the image of God.
Are the Baldur's Gate characters created in the image of humans?
ian crossland
Of man, yes.
tim pool
That's right.
And you, outside of the game, have control over their lives.
You decide for them what they do.
But you are not the god of their game.
If you had console commands, you would be, but they've not released the patch for the console command, so maybe we gotta do a mod for that one.
But, when you play a video game, and you control the lives of the characters in those games, and they are made in your likeness, you are a facsimile of how one could start.
To try and interpret what God might be.
And I say that very, very, very broadly.
Try to interpret what he might be.
Is that the concept of what it means to exist outside of a system and to have characters made in your likeness is a concept humans can't understand.
ian crossland
Yeah, of course, I think that the vibration of reality is forming us into what we are.
tim pool
And I can imagine if someone said, it's impossible for a person to grow two feet overnight, just instantly, by divine alteration.
And then I play Fallout, and I press the little tilde button, and I put in the code to grow character by two feet, and press enter, and the character goes, boop!
So, I am the god of that game.
So it is certainly and entirely possible that the God of our universe can affect it as so he pleases.
ian crossland
That's where I, it's, that's in, that would be called, what do you call that?
When you're in, what's it?
Induction.
You're inducing that backwards.
So that's not, that wouldn't be evidence that just because we can do that in a video game doesn't mean therefore the God of our universe also- I didn't say that.
I literally didn't say that.
tim pool
It doesn't even- I said, the logic of the existence of a function Makes it easy for you to understand the existence of the function.
ian crossland
Yeah, but it's no evidence that the existence of the function is there.
tim pool
And that's right.
I never said that was the case.
ian crossland
So the whole God creating, like being a man that impregnated Mary, like there's just some things about Christianity that I always had serious problems with that I think why it's not being mass adopted right now, why so many people like scoff at the stuff when there's so much good in it.
So I would love people to take a more realistic look at the thing.
tim pool
I just think the real issue is that the average person, we have too many midwits who think they're smarter,
and what they do is they say things like, Sky God. And the way you did that is why people would adopt
it.
Because instead of saying something like, let's start with the basics of simulation theory,
which a lot of secular people will actually be interested to hear.
That there is a higher intelligence entity of some source or race that programmed our universe as a simulation and all of us within it.
Now you're beginning to understand Religion 101.
In fact, theologians, scholars, philosophers, even atheist philosophers, have already speculated as to what simulation theory is before you even realized the possibility of simulations existing.
Before the computer was invented, theologians, scholars, and philosophers understood the concepts of simulated existence.
Now that you're finally at a point where you can see the development of technology so that you can understand basic concepts, now atheists are starting to say, oh, simulation theory, that makes sense to me.
And then you say, so a higher power outside of our universe designed and created everything.
In fact, in simulation theory, you're proposing it's plausible that our universe was created 5,000 years ago and that dinosaurs were placed in the dirt to test our faith.
Because when someone makes a video game, they will put... They don't program the dinosaurs to die off and then wait a thousand years for the game to advance.
No, they just drag and drop the dinosaur bone into the dirt.
Easter eggs.
Yeah, Easter eggs and things like that.
If someone truly believes simulation theory is a possibility, then they're essentially saying they understand the possibility that the universe was designed by God, and God exists, and we were created in his likeness.
It's that simple.
There's too many midwits, though.
The midwits like to listen to George Carlin.
I like George Carlin, he's a funny guy.
But George Carlin has that famous bit where he's like, the greatest story ever told is a man in the sky.
And if you do, and he's watching you always.
And I'm like, the funny thing about that joke and the problem with the joke is that the average person has never actually heard the philosophical high level wise discussion of existence, philosophy, creation, But they watch Comedy Central and they hear George Carlin say, a man in the sky is watching you!
And they go, Christians are dumb.
And then you go and actually talk to, like, a theologian at a university, and he'll start explaining to you crazy high-level moral philosophies.
What we know is real in the universe, what we think we know.
They'll talk to you about solipsism.
They'll talk to you about utilitarianism.
They'll talk to you about early concepts and how they emerged.
And then you'll be like, holy shit, these are crazy ideas.
Do you smoke weed, dude?
And they'll be like, no, I just read the Bible.
ian crossland
There's two types of Christians that I've talked to, two types of people in general.
One is like, Jesus turned water into wine, they told me.
I was like, oh, that's interesting.
What if he had Wine, and he had like 50 people, so he watered it down into two jugs, and then each of those two, he watered them down again.
So they got a little bit of watered down wine.
It still tasted like wine, because they hadn't had wine in, you know, 30 days or whatever.
So it was fresh.
But there's some people will be like, oh, that's interesting.
Other people like, no, God did it.
He did it with a miracle.
And those people, I'm like, you got to just shake that free.
Like, get real with it.
tim pool
The point is, something beyond physics occurred.
ian crossland
That's where I'm like, well, the burden of proof is on the claimant if you're gonna say that.
tim pool
And that's called faith.
ian crossland
Yeah, you can't just act like you have faith in some nonsense, unphysically, that physics would say is not possible, and then you win.
You're the loser in that situation if you can't prove it with physics.
tim pool
This is the problem, Ian.
You are a very derisive and arrogant individual when it comes to religion.
ian crossland
When it comes to common sense and facts, yeah.
tim pool
You're derisive.
ian crossland
I will talk down to you if you say that things that are not true are true.
tim pool
And so, right, this is the problem.
You're arrogant.
ian crossland
That may be true sometimes.
tim pool
You do not know it's true.
ian crossland
I know that you don't either, if you're going to make a claim like that.
tim pool
Have you ever read about solipsism?
ian crossland
I'm just assuming that you're the guy that's saying... Have you ever read about solipsism?
...just turn water into wine.
tim pool
Have you ever?
ian crossland
Tell me about it.
tim pool
Do you know what it is?
ian crossland
Uh, what is it, just like talk?
No, no.
tim pool
How about you begin by reading some basic moral philosophy?
ian crossland
How about I make a word you never heard and then blame you for not knowing it?
tim pool
That's the point!
ian crossland
Hold on.
The arrogance of someone... I'm looking up solipsism.
tim pool
Uh-huh.
Who says, I know what's true, and you've not even taken moral philosophy 101.
ian crossland
No, I'm saying, people that claim to know what's true without proof.
tim pool
That's you!
ian crossland
No, I'm saying, if you think he turned water into wine, which is the claim I was told, I was told that he did that, you gotta prove it.
Because physics says he can't do it.
tim pool
I don't need to prove anything to you, unless my goal is to convince you a thing happened.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm allowed to believe whatever I want.
ian crossland
If someone's gonna be like, this is the true thing, call or ask, what's wrong with Christianity today?
You're gonna tell me that this is real.
tim pool
So I told this story the other day about a guy I met, Who said that, super long story short, drug addict, shitty life, one day in the woods, he was taking a piss, after a drug party, and he felt a booming voice from within him say, what are you doing?
And he freaked out, he had adrenaline rush, spike, what the fuck?
There's a voice inside me.
And then he just paused and it said, why are you doing this to yourself?
And he freaked out.
And he started looking for answers.
What was this voice?
How did this happen?
He had no idea.
He was not a religious person.
He never studied.
And so he traveled around talking to people, trying to find answers.
And he found Christianity.
And he talked to a priest who explained him, showed him other stories.
People have found similar things.
But ultimately, it's his decision.
How does he believe?
What does he believe?
He became a Christian.
And he said, I am not here to tell you this is true.
I am not here to make you believe me.
You will never believe me.
I know that.
And I said, I'll take your word for it.
Whatever.
You had an experience.
The question is, are you lying?
Did you make that experience up to trick me, or did you truly experience this, are telling me it happened, and whether or not I believe you or not is entirely up to me.
It doesn't matter whether I believe him, I believe he believes it, and that's fine.
But I also believe there is more than this universe, and that is... Anyone with any modicum of wisdom knows Our perception of reality is not the end-all be-all of reality.
And the reason why is, before the publication of the charged electromagnetic spectrum, people thought the universe was what you could touch, smell, see, and hear.
Holy shit, motherfuckers, we didn't even know what air was a couple thousand years ago.
We didn't know that there was actually air until some dude, they had these little brass balls with straws.
They would dunk it in water, put their thumb over it, Lift it up, put it over their heads, release their thumb, and the water would pour over their heads.
That's how they showered.
And then some dude goes, hey, wait a minute.
Hold on a second.
He takes the brass little shower motherfucker, puts his thumb over the thing, dips it in the water, pulls it out, take no water in there!
And he said, something's got to be in there blocking the water from going in.
And when I take my thumb off, the water going in pushes that out.
Holy shit.
Air is physical matter.
Humans didn't know that until some dude discovered it.
They just thought this was nothing!
Then you get to the turn of the century, 1900s, and everyone's like, what you can touch, smell, see, and hear is reality.
And this motherfuckin' patent office guy goes, everything that can be invented has been invented.
In like 1899!
And now we have people today being like, it is not possible such a thing could happen.
Like, dude, water could turn to wine.
You know how?
We know how to do it.
Motherfucker could go in and fuse molecules together in a high-density fusion device that is neat, that we could theorize how to do.
And I'm not saying that Jesus had a fucking matter compactor underground or anything, but it is entirely possible that you can take molecules and alter them at the atomic level into whatever you want.
And we have done this.
There have been amazing experiments where they've used two-dimensional planes to alter the electron count to change the chemical properties of a simulated atom.
Wild-ass shit!
They actually did an experiment where they simulated the chemical properties of lead and turned it to gold!
That being said, these things are all entirely possible, but we are limited by the technology of what we have today and what we've yet to discover.
So for you to sit here and say, it's impossible to do, y'all need to read about some solipsism.
ian crossland
Dude, Jesus Christ turning water into wine was not physically possible from all evidence that we have about what technology was available.
tim pool
How did they set concrete underwater in Rome?
ian crossland
I don't know exactly what the process was.
It was some of the strongest concrete on Earth.
tim pool
That's considered to be a lost technology.
ian crossland
Yeah, but it's the concrete remains.
If Jesus, if the wine was still there, then I'd be like, where did this wine come from?
Let's investigate it.
unidentified
We will pause.
ian crossland
It's just a story.
tim pool
And we'll move on to the next caller and I will finalize my position with you don't know.
ian crossland
Correct.
And for people to make claims, they've got to be able to prove it to me.
tim pool
So when we say, I say, it is possible that water turned to wine, you say, no, it wasn't.
ian crossland
No, I didn't say that.
It's highly unlikely, highly, highly unlikely with zero evidence.
I said, it's zero possibility based on the evidence that we have.
You would say there's a zero percent chance.
tim pool
I can turn water into wine.
It's called Kool-Aid.
ian crossland
It's not the same thing.
tim pool
What do you mean?
Why not?
unidentified
Because you added sugar and Kool-Aid mix to the water.
tim pool
And the water has become wine.
ian crossland
No.
tim pool
It's not how it works.
Why not?
ian crossland
I mean, maybe you added something to the liquid to create a new substance.
That's what I'm thinking you did.
I'm thinking you watered down the wine.
unidentified
Exactly.
tim pool
Why not?
ian crossland
But that's not what the story told me.
He turned it.
Because of God's power, he turned water into wine.
Alright guys, you lost me.
Sorry.
I love games and fantasy fun and all that, but just don't tell me wild stories.
There's too much lying going on in the news, CNN.
I don't trust media in general.
You've got to prove claims.
And if a religion can start doing that, I'll get involved.
tim pool
Let's go to the next caller!
serge du preez
Asmodeus!
Anything else to add to that?
I don't really want to let you add anything because we've got to get rolling.
Cheers, man.
unidentified
Yeah, I'll leave that for the after show.
I'll let you guys finish up.
serge du preez
Cheers, man.
tim pool
Thanks for calling in.
serge du preez
Talk to you soon.
All right, let's see.
You actually look like a nail, not me.
Don't accuse me of that.
You look like a nail.
unidentified
Hey, guys.
I'm another longtime listener, first time caller here.
serge du preez
Nice.
ian crossland
What up?
unidentified
I'm actually one of your locals in Martinsburg.
I'm looking forward to the shop over.
Right on!
ian crossland
Sweet.
serge du preez
Sick, man.
See you soon.
unidentified
In any case, last night there was a discussion about French President Macron threatening to send NATO into war in Ukraine.
NATO is a defensive alliance and the trigger that actually gets all the treaty signatories into war, Article 5, is when a member state is attacked by a foreign power.
So if there's no Russian attack on a NATO member, Macron's threat is technically just a French threat because no one else is required to participate.
tim pool
They'll false flag it.
unidentified
Yeah, well that's my question, is do you believe that Western nations will join the Ukraine war independently without NATO backing?
tim pool
Nope.
unidentified
That somebody's gonna false flag it, or are we just gonna keep throwing money but not conventional troops into it?
tim pool
False flag.
Or, look, maybe Russia attacks, or maybe it's a false flag.
Either way, there will be a catalyst.
hannah claire brimelow
Well, and it makes me think about what are they going to say is an attack on a NATO ally, right?
So like Sweden's going to be a part of NATO.
And we know that one of the things that Sweden has done recently is close their border with Russia because they say Russia keeps sending people across the border and they can't sustain this.
And it's a form of Russian aggression.
So if that continues, is that attacking a NATO ally?
And is that enough for everyone to go to war?
Or are they actually thinking like, You know, I just don't trust NATO.
I feel like NATO will look for any excuse to escalate the situation.
And so I don't think it's going to be like, oh, we installed a military and there was actual conflict.
I think it'll be like, well, you started doing something you didn't really like, and we take that as a form of an attack on us.
serge du preez
Yeah, it's like I see them kind of it's like a war one situation is everyone's got all these guns and stuff and can't use it.
So they're just waiting and like otherwise NATO if I think NATO should be complete disbanded.
It's kind of pointless like we beat the Soviets over.
I don't get why we're we're continuing to have this but It's like they're just sitting there like, oh, if we don't do this, well then we have no reason to exist.
They've realized that their raison d'etre doesn't exist anymore.
They have no, they have nothing there.
And I don't know, they're just trying to like, I feel like they're just trying to make themselves feel like they're worth it.
It's like typical bureaucrats, man.
So, I don't know.
I think she's right.
Justifying their existence.
Yeah, exactly.
jameson ellis
Kind of sounds like most of Congress.
unidentified
Cheers to that, man.
serge du preez
Yeah, I agree, man.
Yep.
tim pool
World War 3 baby, buy some chickens!
Uh, we're having the first annual Timcast Cockfest on Friday.
unidentified
That sounds delicious.
tim pool
Yeah.
Yeah.
They're all dead.
We spared three of them.
ian crossland
It's been very quiet outside.
Today I was like, it was somber almost outside.
tim pool
It's funny when they harmonize though, isn't it funny?
ian crossland
Yeah, I love it.
tim pool
You'll hear like, and then you'll hear another one go and they'll both go at the same time.
But now they're dead.
ian crossland
Now they've been shipped off to the factory.
Yeah, it's going to be good.
serge du preez
What are they going to be?
hannah claire brimelow
Do you know the recipes?
tim pool
Well, we're gonna cook it, rip it apart, and put barbecue sauce on it.
hannah claire brimelow
Oh, I don't know if Kim's gonna make a casserole out of chicken or all kinds of stuff.
tim pool
Well, Allison's gonna make a chili, rooster chili.
ian crossland
Oh, that sounds awesome.
tim pool
Yeah, you gotta wait three days for the rigor mortis to settle.
Okay.
Yeah, so the meat has to just relax.
But that's perfect because we've got to butcher it on Tuesday and then we're gonna eat it on Friday.
serge du preez
Andrina, no, he didn't kill the chickens, he killed roosters.
tim pool
No, not chickens, yeah.
serge du preez
Come on.
unidentified
Kill chickens.
ian crossland
That's a filthy thing.
tim pool
Well, actually, roosters aren't chickens.
We didn't kill any hens.
serge du preez
Yeah.
tim pool
But, uh, so the roosters at Cocktown are all dead.
Roberto, the king, is in his castle.
He is King Regent because RB3 is the current heir.
And RB3's brother was spared because we can't risk the heir dying and then not having another heir to the throne.
ian crossland
Let's hope it leads not to a secession war down the line.
tim pool
Yeah.
But we are going to strengthen the Roberto line.
Kim is going to give Roberto a lady to juice up.
And then once we move to New Chicken City... So this is New Chicken City, and we're going to build Neo Chicken City, which is going to be cyberpunk themed.
And we're going to get like little neon visors for the chickens.
ian crossland
Yeah, cock transit.
tim pool
Yeah, and then...
Something came up to where I don't think we can do the Lenin statue and I can't talk about it because it could put the project at risk.
But the anti-Times Square is more important.
That's why I was saying, like, don't count on us buying the Lenin statue.
The anti-Times Square in Martinsburg is way more important than mocking communism.
As much as mocking communism is important.
So.
But yeah, anyway.
unidentified
Cool.
serge du preez
Anything else to add, my friend?
unidentified
Um, if I could, I just wanted to make a quick recommendation for potential guests.
Uh, there's a science fiction author named Blaine Pardo.
He got canceled by leftists, but he's currently publishing a really good novel series about a second civil war.
And I just think he'd have some really good insights into everything going on in the culture war right now.
Cool.
tim pool
What's his name?
unidentified
Blaine Pardo.
P-A-R-D-O-E.
jameson ellis
Yeah, the name sounds familiar.
unidentified
If you ever played like the MechWarrior computer games, he wrote a bunch of novels for that.
They're under the Battletech name.
Cool.
tim pool
Interesting.
Right on.
serge du preez
Well, hey man.
jameson ellis
Cheers.
tim pool
Thanks for calling in.
serge du preez
Thanks for the recommendation.
unidentified
Thank you.
jameson ellis
It's funny, because I'm like half nerd, half redneck, so I call myself a nerdneck.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Or a red nerd.
ian crossland
That's a good one, too.
tim pool
Well, anyway, that sounds commie.
Anyway, Jameson, thanks for hanging out, man.
It's been fun.
That about wraps it up.
So for everybody who's a member, we're really excited for this Martinsburg event next week.
It was day two of my physical training with my personal trainer.
And I had to eat 250 carbs yesterday, which is more carbs than I'd eaten in the past three or four years.
Because even when I was eating carbs, I did not eat 250 in one day.
But surprisingly, I woke up today feeling really good.
And, um, it has, you do the exercise, you know what I mean?
So today I did, I did, uh, two and a half hours.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
tim pool
Two and a half hour workout.
Well, it's two hours of high intense skating, like hardcore, like legit skating, like crazy.
And then a half an hour of basic, uh, circuit training, I guess it's, it's similar to.
ian crossland
Did you take a break between the skate and the lifts?
tim pool
About 10 minutes, 10 minutes.
So tomorrow Ian's joining in.
ian crossland
Yeah, 2 PM.
tim pool
And, uh, the goal is in one year to have Ian just like the rock.
ian crossland
I've been watching a lot of videos of the Incredible Hulkster, Hulkamania.
Yeah, he's one of my favorites.
tim pool
All right, we're gonna get out of here, everybody.
Thanks for hanging out.
