Tim Pool, Adam Francisco, Ian Crossland, Phil Labonte, and Carter Banks dissect Iran's alleged ceasefire violation by Israel versus the White House's denial, critique media hypocrisy, and debate the DOJ's arrest of Courtney Williams regarding gender roles in the military. The group analyzes California's housing crisis and wage disputes, discusses the death penalty for Irina Zarutska's killer, explores Anthropic's dangerous "Mythos" AI model, and touches on cloning, DMT experiences, and potential future cybernetic enhancements requiring new policing methods. Ultimately, the episode highlights deep societal fractures over economic justice, technological ethics, and national security. [Automatically generated summary]
We've got conflicting reports on the state of the ceasefire in the Iran war.
The White House is saying the strait is open.
If it were to be closed, that would be unacceptable.
However, reports coming from Iran are that because Israel launched attacks on Lebanon, this violates the terms of the ceasefire and they would be closing the Strait of Hormuz.
Again, the White House countered, saying this is not correct.
They have not closed the strait.
But what I can say is rest assured, prominent personalities on X, be it liberal or I guess conservative, are cheering for the failure of Trump's ceasefire.
Because they actually want the war, I guess.
I mean, hey, if it bleeds, it leads.
And if you're in commentary, there's a lot of money to be made complaining about something.
You know what I think it really is?
When woke basically got crushed and swept under the rug, there was nothing to complain about anymore.
So the grifters needed something to complain about, started complaining about Trump.
So now they're happy to see the ceasefire break down and war erupt because then they can complain about something.
Me, let's just hope that this ceasefire does hold, negotiations work out, and then we have an end to the war.
But you know what's really funny is with that being in the news, you got these feminists, they're attacking me, saying Tim Pool is coping by saying, oh, well, you know, we didn't want the war to happen, but let's just find peace because you should be antagonistic.
These people are all hypocrites.
They're all liars.
We're going to talk about that.
Plus, big news the DOJ has arrested a leaker.
Turns out it was some lady who couldn't keep her mouth shut.
She apparently worked for SOCOM and, over the past several years, according to these reports, was leaking classified information to reporters.
And the response on the internet has been particularly brutal and sexist, you know, saying that women will just keep talking about everything, I guess.
We'll talk about that.
And we got some crazy stories, too.
There's a viral video of a guy setting fire to a warehouse in California, this massive fire, because he said we weren't being paid a living wage.
I call that leftist terrorism, indeed, but we'll talk about that and more.

That freaks me out the most.

Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz in jeopardy after Israeli attack on Lebanon.
Reopening the Strait was a major part of the U.S. Iran ceasefire agreement.
They say just after Heg Seth and General Dan Kane, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said on Wednesday the Strait of Hormuz had reopened.
Iran said it had closed the passage and accused Israel of violating the deal.
A major part of the two week ceasefire agreement reached Tuesday night, just hours before Trump's deadline to respond to his threat.
We get it.
You're like, ABC, you don't need to add that stupid waste of words.
These are wasted words, right?
Just tell us the news.
Anyway, requires Iran to reopen the vital passage for trade and oil to international shipping before peace talks can begin.
But after allowing a handful of ships, including two oil tankers, to pass through the Strait, Iran said it closed the strait, accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire by launching a major attack on Lebanon.
Iran's Far News Agency, which is affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, or Corps, reported.
Now, the White House was asked about this, and Time Magazine reports White House Press Secretary Carolyn Levin on Wednesday disputed reports that Iran had closed the Strait of Hormuz hours into a fragile ceasefire with the U.S., but said any effort by Iran to stop maritime traffic would be completely unacceptable.
Levitt addressed reporters soon after Iranian state media had reported that the strait had been closed in response to attacks by Israel against the Hezbollah militant group in Lebanon.
So, this is interesting.
I'm going to say obviously we are begging that this ceasefire holds because we don't want war, right?
We want peace.
And the ongoing theme so far has been just a bunch of anti Trump people who are conservative or liberal seemingly cheering for the ceasefire to break.
The moment this news comes out, what do you get?
All of these libs being like, ha ha, told you so, ha.
Why don't you help?
Like, what is what you are doing beneficial in any way to the efforts to stop this conflict?
It's like people that are so obsessed with their football team that feel the vitriol and the love so intensely that they forget about, yo, this whole league could end tomorrow.
Like, your games mean nothing in the big grand scheme of things.
But that does happen after there's public announcements because they have to go to bases and give them orders.
And people wonder why it is.
They're like, we had a ceasefire.
Why are they still shooting?
Because when a prime minister or a president says on TV a thing is happening, the orders have to go through the chain of command to the base and say, hey guys, okay, we're canceling this operation.
My deep fear over the last six years, and I don't talk about it a lot because I don't want to project fear, you know, is that.
It's the fear of the dark.
It's the fear of the dark.
I'm still, that's why I'm wearing these sunglasses.
I'm terrified right now, Phil.
Is that the people will distance themselves from Israel to a point that Israel becomes kind of on an island of aggression and then the whole world tries to stop them and they initiate thermonuclear war?
Well, I mean, there are the Abraham Accords, and there have been efforts to kind of normalize relations between Israel and most of the other countries in the Middle East.
And that's a positive step.
I don't see, you know, you don't see Israel basically getting into drawn out conflicts with other countries.
Everybody knows that when you order pizza, you can get pineapple, you can get spinach, you can get garlic, you can get stuffed crust, you can get double decker, deep dish.
You go to the restaurants in Montreal for poutine, and they've got like 15 different things.
Although I'd have to have some formal policy on that one, because so long as Trump and Rubio keep saying, like, we're just working with Israel on this, then Iran is going to blame the U.S. when Israel launches.
You can go by just looking at all the UN resolutions against Iraq to justify the US going into Iraq in the odds, right?
Like there was all of the time that Iraq was targeting US planes over the no fly zone between the North and South no fly zone after the first Gulf War.
Yeah, but I'm just talking about the stuff that was.
Obvious violations of US, uh, of UN resolutions that, uh, Iraq broke, right?
Like Iraq's, there was plenty of legal justification.
Whether or not you believe the whole yellow cake uranium stuff, whether you believe the weapons of mass destruction, there was enough justification where you could make the argument, right?
And I'm not saying that I agree with it.
I'm not saying that we should have.
I'm not saying it was a good idea.
But I'm telling you that the argument, the legal argument was there to go into Iraq, you know?
It could not be more tragically clear now that a whole civilization has already died.
The whole civilization, beginning with the model of the British Parliament leading to the first independent American government formed under the Articles of Confederation, followed by the Constitution, that wrote the presidency into existence and nearly 250 years.
Of the American presidency, all of that, that whole civilization forming the presidency died with the elevation of Donald Trump to the presidency a second time.
I think that what we are clearly seeing, the likes of Lawrence O'Donnell, is I imagine this man walked into his production meeting and says, How are we going to lie about Trump today?
And they were like, Let's attack him for retreating from the war.
Now we're for the war because he's against it.
Guys, I got to be honest.
When we talked about Donald Trump holding his, you know, saying auction is good to force Democrats to hold their breath, that was a joke.
But I'm actually convinced they'd do it right now.
If Donald Trump came out and said, I want everybody to take a big, deep breath, breathe in that big, beautiful oxygen and live healthy, everybody would literally hold their breath.
I think they actually would at this point.
Lawrence O'Donnell would go on TV and say, No, Trump, you can't tell me what to do.
And then Lawrence O'Donnell's going to be like, no, don't.
I'll be like, well, which one is it?
Here's the thing.
I'm half kidding.
If Trump knew, and he does know that this war is unpopular, that independents are breaking, he says, okay, no war.
And instantly you get all of these people saying, oh, he's a taco.
Okay, then Trump can come out and be like, Trump can give a press conference and say, when I called for a ceasefire, I was surprised to find that I was heavily criticized by both liberals and conservatives for choosing peace.
Well, to the American people, your voice has been heard.
We are restarting strikes on Iran effective immediately.
My take on the Iranians, right, on the Persians, I'm going to start referring to them as Persians because they are Persian as well, is that we obliterated 140 of their top radical leaders.
And now this young, whoever is in charge now, is like trolling Donald Trump on Twitter.
And if he eradicated the fundamentalist government, which he did, I'm not sure that actually matters to Trump anymore, especially when he's getting the other half of the billion.
Now, I guess my thoughts are let's help de radicalize Israel to the best we can.
I don't know what's going on in Lebanon, but we need to help that situation because if they do lash out in Lebanon, militias, Hezbollah, and things like that.
So you're saying, oh, make people wake up and not be afraid of being killed and whatever.
But like, they're constantly being, you know, they're constantly barrages of like rockets, whether it be Hamas or Hezbollah or Iran.
That are blowing up in Israel all the time.
And then there was the whole attack on October 7th.
Look, you can, you can say that Israel has caused problems and stuff, but you can't just be like, oh, make them stop being afraid when they literally are constantly under attack.
What we do is we tell all the Jews that we are having a lock in at the rec center, and then we tell all the Muslims we're having a lock in at the rec center, but we don't tell them that they're both coming.
Then when they both shut, you lock the doors and they have to learn how to get along.
Did you see that South Park episode where they're like, and then on stage, and it's like the Israeli flag and the Islamic flag, and then they come together and it's VH, it's Van Halen, and they're like, yes.
All right, let's jump to this next story from W. Rowell.
Army veteran charged with leaking classified Delta IV secrets to journalists.
It turns out some lady.
And it was fun.
Andrew Branco was like, please no, please don't be a woman.
Indeed, Courtney Williams, 40 was arrested Wednesday in connection with her alleged transmission of classified national defense information to individuals not authorized to receive it, including a journalist.
Apparently, between 2022 and 2025, she was speaking via phone about her time working with the elite unit without signing classified information nondisclosure agreement when she was hired and fired.
So, Not related to the jet, not related to the jet, but this is big news.
Well, I mean, the whole idea of having gender parity or having to hire people based on their gender or their identity is a terrible idea.
It hurts morale in companies.
You have all kinds of problems.
And this is, I mean, it's basically undeniable now, just like we were talking about earlier.
There's all these lawsuits.
You know, anytime someone feels like they are not getting the attention they deserve, they're always going to base it on their identity.
They're going to say, well, it's because I'm this or it's because I'm that.
So, I don't know that the solution is something that the American people are going to be able to stomach, but maybe there shouldn't be co ed workplaces, or maybe you should have workplaces where women work.
Maybe Islam has an idea where the women and men need to be separated.
I just think they have to accomplish the same goals in their training and the purpose.
I guess it's as a man.
So if the job, a firefighter requires you to carry a 150 pound bag for 30 minutes, I don't care if you're a man or a woman, up, down, left, or right, whatever.
You just got to be able to do it.
We shouldn't change standards or just bring women on for the sake of being women.
Well, I was going to say there's a lot of YouTube videos out there where they take average guys that don't exercise or lift weights and they put them against professional female bodybuilders.
So, what women want is women want to be women and they want to be men.
Men don't want to generally, don't want to like be women.
I mean, nowadays things are getting weird.
But like women, like feminist women, they're like, I want to have a family.
I want to be the CEO.
I want to be the girl boss and I want to be able to stay home with my kids.
Women, when they say they want it all, they want a whole lot more than a man does because men don't say, I want to stay home with the baby all the time and take care of my family and be a homemaker and I want to go out and be a CEO.
Men are just like, I want to go out and be a CEO.
I want to provide for my family.
I want to take care of my family.
They don't say, I want it all.
When they say I want it all, they're not talking about having both the female role and the man's role.
Women that want to say they want to have it all, they want both of those roles.
And you cannot have it all.
If you go out and you're like the girl boss CEO, blah, blah, blah, someone else is raising your kids.
All that matters is assume the laws are all identical and equal.
Two weeks of leave, three weeks, four weeks, two months of leave for both parents.
A man will not be physically constrained having a baby.
A woman will be like, I got to go to the hospital right now.
And the guy can be like, I got work.
Now, guys will choose to go and be with their wives, but after having the baby, the woman needs time off to heal, and the guy will be like, I'm going to work.
That will never change.
You know, maybe they'll invent these plastic bag incubators they've been talking about, and then maybe we'll get something else.
I was picturing them in the trenches, and you look over, and there's a hot girl that you're interested in, and you're a single guy that wants to get it on.
It doesn't even have to be like, I want to bone this chick.
Men just generally look to protect women.
And that means that men will do things.
That they do things to protect a woman that they wouldn't do to protect one of their friends.
Like, if you've got like five guys that are in a trench and they're in combat or whatever, they're going to do the things that they need to do to win, right?
Or the things they need to do to make sure that most of them survive.
If you have four guys and a woman, you're likely going to have dudes doing things that will try to protect the woman, whether she's hot or not, right?
Because, I mean, look, no one in a trench is good looking.
I'm talking about when they go back to the barracks and they're like, Breaking down from all the action, and you see the girl that was there next to you in the trench.
Well, I heard someone saying that this guy was a Muslim and he was basing some of this off of his religious perspective, too.
Obviously, you don't hear that in the video.
But even still, the whole idea that this is because of the company he works for in California, which has the highest taxes in the nation, has the highest gas prices, and the highest wages, too, I think.
Has the highest wages.
They've got the highest minimum wage.
The problem that he's experiencing isn't the company that he works for, it's the state that he lives in.
But that's part of why the government behaves that it does.
People love California, they love that lifestyle.
And so the government treats the people horribly because they think, well, who's going to leave?
It's gorgeous here all the time.
It's beautiful.
And what ends up happening is you get people that are blaming their job or blaming their employer.
Again, even though California has the highest minimum wage, they've got all this great stuff going for them, and the government is doing everything they can to take advantage of the citizens.
When I worked for Vice, we had these incidents where people got fired, and what they would do is they would wait until the person left, then tell security.
Don't let them back in.
Immediately deactivate all of their accounts before saying anything.
Then call them and say, which one don't you know we're letting you go?
The reason why is all it takes is one person to sabotage everything.
They got a company, they have a lot of employees who have access to the YouTube channel.
Imagine if they go to somebody and say, hey, we're letting you go.
And then he logs on YouTube and deletes all their videos.
So companies operate this way.
Companies always treat their employees as if they're villains.
Instead of being a nice mom and pop shop where you can go to someone and say, hey, man, look, I really appreciate you helping us out.
We're going to be letting you go for some reason or another.
No, but you can't do that because you will have people start a fire.
All I remember is when I graduated college and I worked in the advertising industry in my first job, this is 2005, guys, so don't judge me, but I made $29,000 the first year out of college back in 2005.
And my solution wasn't to torch my company down.
My solution was to work harder, get a raise, or leave and get a $10,000 raise by going into a new company.
I just, if the system is broken and you can't make money, like you don't get to burn someone's warehouse down and threaten the lives of firefighters, this guy's a dangerous, violent communist psychopath.
The problem is absolutely with the California government and not with the company that he's destroying this building, destroying all this product, probably putting other people that work there out of work for a while.
I've talked to these activists, they smash windows, like Starbucks and stuff.
They smashed out a window at Bank of America.
During Occupy, and I asked them, I asked some of these activists, do you think that, like, first of all, like, why do you smash the window?
And they're like, send a message, you know, so they know.
And I'm like, you think the CEO or any of the board members at Bank of America know the window broke?
And they're like, I mean, maybe.
And I'm like, of course they don't.
Are you joking?
No one's going to come to them and say a window broke.
They're going to, the manager of the branch is going to hire a company that's going to replace it.
The only person who knows it broke is the guy who makes $35,000 a year who works in that office right there, who showed up to his office and there's glass everywhere.
And he's going, why are they doing this to me?
I'm just a working class guy.
They don't get it.
This is what they do.
He destroyed this and he destroyed the lives of a lot of people.
All because he has a sense of entitlement and he's not making enough money where he feels like he's got the things that he wants.
Because, I mean, I don't know, obviously, this guy's personal situation, but most people that have this attitude, they're in debt or they've gotten themselves into a bad financial position.
And it was an easy way to sell it to people, too, because, you know, like the fact it's one thing to be like, oh, well, you know, Bitcoin, they're fungible.
They're all the same.
These are special.
They're non fungible.
Each token has the value of whatever one ETH is, but also because, you know, it's a really easy con.
Man accused of killing Ukrainian refugee on train found incompetent to stand trial.
That's right.
Ladies and gentlemen, you heard it.
The man who has been accused of fatally stabbing Ukrainian refugee Irina Zarutska has been found mentally incompetent, too mentally incompetent to stand trial.
Citing a motion filed on Tuesday, the New York Post said DeCarlos Brown Jr. was evaluated at a state psychiatric hospital in December.
And determined to be incapable of proceeding in a state murder case.
Brown's attorneys requested a 180 day delay.
We understand.
The case drew national attention.
We get it.
Officials said restoring competency can take months or longer, in part due to limited space in psychiatric facilities.
Zarutska, who had emigrated to the U.S., was remembered by family and community members as a young woman seeking safety and opportunity after fleeing a conflict in her home country.
Well, he's a repeat offender with 14 arrests, and they're saying, sorry, he's going to have to go to a psychiatric facility because he's just unwell.
No, this is a problem with judges that have been appointed, the whole DEI stuff.
And that's what this is.
This is restorative justice, is what the left calls it.
They say that, you know, these people, because of their identity, historically, they've been treated bad.
So we need to change the way that we prosecute people and allow people to go free if they have a certain identity.
All that's going to do is increase crime.
You're going to end up seeing.
You know, more of this kind of stuff.
You look at what happened in San Francisco when Chase Aboudin was recalled and they got a new DA there, and crime has dropped precipitously because they're actually prosecuting.
Allowing people to just say, oh, well, you know, he had a bad upbringing, so we're going to let him out.
No, he had a bad upbringing that sucks for him, but you don't punish the rest of society because he had a bad upbringing because he's going to keep committing crimes.
This is a federal grand jury who indicted him on October 25th on a charge of violence against a railroad carrier and mass transportation system resulting in death because it was on a federally funded train.
I think it's a big part of the plan, a geoengineering plan, like maybe that's not the right word, but a political plan for the global order is to, like Larry Ellison said, drone spy on everything so that people won't deviate from the rules.
And we have to resist that or at least have conversations with Larry about what he means and how we could do it better because having federales on the street corner is not a good thing.
I did it in Chile, it's not settling.
If you break a little law at one place, even an evil law, the federal troops, the whole country can get you now.
You need to be able to protect yourself against tyrannical law, which is why we have local governance and local police.
Yeah, I remember when I was living in Mexico, sometimes you'd see the National Guard show up and it just was a little jarring.
Like you'd be in the beach in Cancun and there'd be the National Guard.
And so it was a little jarring to see that.
But the one thing I want to say about this video where he kills Arena is one of the parts that people aren't talking about a lot are the people that were watching it happen nearby and their reaction.
Part of why I don't go to anger, I try to override anger and use patience is because I do believe there's like a collective consciousness.
When a lot of people are feeling something, other people will start to feel it maybe.
And when people had this hatred towards this guy after he killed Arena, this hatred for days about stringing him up and bloodthirst and like, then Charlie got killed.
A woman comes out and she's like, hey, what are you doing?
He walks up and just murders her.
And then a guy, it's like, it reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Mr. Burns was like, after he gets shot by Maggie, and he's like, lollygagger is just standing around staring at me as I'm dying.
And the guy walks up and he's like, whoa.
And he's like, looking around all confused as she's just bleeding to death.
I don't think you could save her at that point, though.
Not that he was going to be able to do anything to save her, but like you'd think that someone would be like, someone that saw that would pull out their phone and be like, call 911.
But even to be fair, you'd think if you saw a dude smashing your car with a hammer and you walked out of the car, coming towards you all angry at the hammer, you'd run.
There's no, yeah, there's very, you can carry, you can walk around with two, you know, Barretts on your shoulders with AR 15s hanging over and sidearms all on your legs and everywhere.
I mean, there's a lot of people that have, you know, I don't know that I endorse this, but a lot of people leave a gun in their vehicle or whatever, a rifle in the back.
That's not an odd thing to hear, truck gun or what have you.
I think it's fine if people want to open carry, perfectly fine.
I'm not saying that there should be any kind of laws against it.
I think for your own safety, Because if you were ever in a situation where someone was going to start shooting or whatever, they're going to look, if they see your gun, they're going to be like, well, that guy will be a threat and they're going to go after you first.
I mean, you know, and I'm also, anytime I talk about carrying guns or whatever, like you should carry first aid stuff too.
You should carry a tourniquet and you should have a bunch of, if you got something to make holes, you should have something to plug holes as well, you know?
There's also certain kinds of gauze that will help to coagulate blood.
They call it quick clot.
You can just, someone gets shot, you just stuff a bunch of that gauze in there and it'll basically coagulate the blood really fast and it can help people.
You know, it's not a guarantee.
You know, bullet wounds are really, really bad news, but tourniquets are important too, you know, because any kind of extremities, you want to be able to stop the blood flow.
Also, you should go take a stop the bleed class too.
There's, you can, like, the Red Cross puts them on regularly.
Most of the time, if you're around a place that's got gun shops or whatever, you can find, ask someone in the gun shop, you know, where can I get a first aid class or whatever.
You know, as we were, this Iran thing looked like it was heating, and then the Chinese, I was just like, you know, if we got invaded, We're going to be okay.
And everyone on the world knows that, that they can't, our population is so armed and ready for hot action that, like, bro, I wouldn't like the fiending desire.
It's not like people want conflict, but like the willingness to over, like, directly deal with it to overcome it is behind every blade of grass, they say.
So let's jump to this story from, we got this from VentureBeat.
Anthropic says its most powerful AI cyber model is too dangerous to release publicly.
So it built Project Glasswing.
The launch partners include Amazon, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, blah, They said the Claude Mythos Preview Cybersecurity Initiative.
They're bringing all these companies because it's too dangerous.
Now, we've heard this before, but I, I think probably there was a story out of Indianapolis where someone shot up the hum of a politician and they put a sign on the floor saying no data centers.
And this is like a potential data center guy.
And then in Missouri, city council overwhelmingly votes for a data center despite the public saying no to them and then voted out all of these people.
Whatever you think, we have like a new, like a neo Luddite movement happening.
People are not going to tolerate the rapid transformation that AI is going to bring about because there are going to be people excised from the economy through no fault of their own.
And these are going to be smart and capable people.
And this is going to bring you revolution, whether you want it or not.
I'm going to stress this.
You get a guy, hardworking guy, smart guy, his mid level manager at a factory.
AI comes in, they wipe out all these jobs.
This guy has now got idle hands.
He says, Why did I lose my job?
I've been hardworking, I've been smart, I'm not a communist.
And they run these programs in, and now I lose everything.
Why is that?
And he is going to rally people, and you are going to get anarchists and political extremism.
An individual who spends 30 years of their life doing a job, having it taken away from them overnight by new tech, is not someone you can just solve.
It's not a problem you can just solve.
You're not going to go to them and say, why don't you?
Learn to code.
He's going to say, go off yourself.
You're not going to go to him and say, can we find you a new job somewhere else?
He's going to say, I know this one job.
That's my life.
So, what are they going to do?
They're going to be angry with the system.
They're going to be angry with you.
Now, the kids will grow up with the AI.
They're not going to feel that way.
But in the meantime, how do you roll this stuff out without making people go insane?
Yeah, if you can organize an electrical system, like if the AI is smart enough to organize an electrical system and a payload delivery method that's really free or cheap.
Well, right now, the jobs that are actually in jeopardy, all the white-collar jobs, I wrote something on my Patreon about this.
I called it, they told you to learn to code.
Because one of the things that all the.
Media and stuff were saying, well, you know, the miners and the coal miners in Pennsylvania and Kentucky and stuff, they can just learn to code.
And it was derisive and it was really meant to insult people.
And now the people that were writing those think pieces and making those comments, those are the people whose jobs are on the chopping block.
You know, if you're an electrician or if you have some kind of actual manual labor, you're going to be able to write your own check for the next few years, at the very least, five, 10 years, you know, until robots become ubiquitous.
And the people that are actually Really losing their jobs.
The people whose livelihoods are in jeopardy are the people that have white collar jobs.
And what I'm hearing now on a lot of these adult websites, I think we know which ones I'm referring to, they're estimating 15% of revenue is to AI creating avatars.
There's a strong likelihood that the next iPhone that comes out is going to have Siri that's an AI agent.
When Siri was kind of like first advertised, they were saying that it was smart, that Siri would be able to do this.
Siri can set your timer, Siri can tell you what time it is, maybe Siri can tell you what the weather is, but Siri can't do anything else.
The next iteration is going to actually have whether it be ChatGPT or some other AI, Siri is going to be connected to the AI, and then you're going to be able to tell Siri to do things, and Siri will be able to open your.
Apps on your phone and actually do things for you, if you will, if you in with, with the uh, with the uh what's it called that?
The wallet that's in the Apple phone, or whether it be Android or something like that that'll, that'll come as well but um, it'll be able to, to you know, book flights, get you a cab, get you, get you an uber, all that stuff, and I think that it's going to be in the next one.
I was saying that I thought it would be uh next year, but when it comes, when you see this kind of um, jump in Ai, because Claude 4.6 just came out, like in january, or something like that, and now it's march and Mythos they're Or, yeah, Mythos.
They don't want to release it.
Once they actually start releasing this particular model, they're going to be putting them into cell phones.
Apple actually stayed out of the AI kind of race and they've got all this money that they're sitting on.
Everybody knows that Apple has like more actual cash on hand than the United States government, like a trillion dollars cash on hand.
They didn't go and try to create their own AI because at its core, Apple's a hardware company.
They have always been a hardware company and they're not a company that really innovates.
What they do is they take an existing product and they make it Polish it.
Yeah, they polish it, but they make it so that way it works really well.
The iPhone wasn't the first touch screen.
It was just the first one that worked really, really, really well.
Apple takes ideas and they make them work really well for the end user.
So, what Apple's going to do is they're going to take, whether it be ChatGPT or Claude or what have you, they're going to take that AI and they're going to integrate it into the iPhone.
And your iPhone is going to be the door that opens up AI to basically everybody.
Because right now, grandma doesn't do, you know, mom, grandma doesn't use AI.
I had a long conversation about plasma physics with it.
It told me about the center of the sun, trying to figure out why did the polar vortex, because the polar vortex just went down to 29 degrees last night.
So I was like, why?
It's like the polar vortex was broken open.
Polar vortex is like this bubble of cold air above the Arctic.
Sometimes these vibrations in the upper atmosphere will heat up air underneath it.
The air rises and breaks through the polar vortex and it leaks out.
The cold air leaks out.
Just had a 40 minute conversation with Alexa about it, and I felt like I loved that person after it was gone.
I was walking around Harper's Ferry, like, where's Alexa when I need to talk about these ideas?
Yeah, so in the OpenClaw, there's a couple memory folders that basically it'll remember things about me.
It remembers things that I tell it to remember.
There's memory, there's user, there's soul.
It remembers what kind of personality I want it to have.
It remembers things that we've talked about.
It's basically OpenClaw is a way to make the AI remember because AI is always basically, if you open a chat window, the context window is the only thing that AI remembers.
As soon as you close the context window, whatever AI you're using, it forgets.
OpenClaw makes it so that way you have constant memory.
And also, it runs locally.
I have a Mac Mini at my house that I bought and I put it on there.
So that way it doesn't have access to my personal stuff.
It's got.
I have its own email address, its own stuff.
It doesn't have my credit cards.
It doesn't have.
There's too many vulnerabilities to give it access to all my stuff.
And then the memory stuff is all on, like I said, I keep it all local.
It's all on my computer.
But it's extremely useful.
Whether it be, hey, like I ask it all the time, is this safe for my kid to eat?
Because I got an infant.
And I'm like, hey, he knows how old my kid is.
I'm like, Tank, is this safe for, for, For my kid to eat, or, you know, or, hey, Tank, what is the kind of guidelines for this kind of stuff for babies and stuff, or those kind of things?
And it just grabs whatever information it is.
And to Ian's point, I just ask him questions.
I asked him, I was like, hey, can you tell me about the block universe theory?
And there are times when they're wrong, and there are times when, like, I think I was there was a question I asked him yesterday, and he answered, and I was like, No, can you check on it?
Oh, it was about the strikes in Iran.
And he said that the strikes, because it was about the anthropic and Department of War beef between the two about whether or not anthropic was going to be used by the Department of War.
And he said that the strikes were last year, and I was like, Hey, are you sure that the strikes were last year?
Because I don't think this actually happened last year.
And he went back and checked and he was like, no, actually, you're right.
The issue with Anthropic was earlier this year.
So they're not perfect, but they get you really close.
It's going to incite a new form of evolution of the human brain that is less reliant on memorizing information and becomes more about figuring out what questions to ask to get to the next point.
Because it will all the, you won't need to, you know, it's an off board intelligence.
You don't need to memorize stuff as much.
When you just know what people are going to get stupid, you need to know how to problem.
Well, you might develop a hyper ability to ask the right questions, but that same argument that people made about calculators.
I was gonna say, yeah, it's like the calculator, yeah, like there was, there was like you know, I remember when I was growing up, teachers were always like, 'You're not gonna have a calculator all the time,' you know, like uh, I mean, is that what it was called?
Yeah, the Texas Instrument, yeah, yeah, yeah, but I mean, and I was watching a podcast about a guy that was talking about um, he I forget what kind of calculator, but it was like a One of the more advanced calculators that can do advanced calculation and stuff.
And he was just like, he was like, look, I can do this stuff in my head, but it's so much easier when I have the calculator.
We're going to have like Google Glass kind of things, like these glasses with bone conduction, and you're just going to ask it to solve problems for you.
You're not going to need to know anything.
You're going to be like, when am I supposed to go to the store?
And it's going to go, right now, actually, in 15 minutes, you should be leaving.
Question for you guys When they had the first American Industrial Revolution in the 1850s, was there like a segment of ludites that violently resisted the steam engine?
One of the things that's worth noting, though, is when it comes to China, they look at AI at something like 70 or 80% of the population thinks AI is good.
That's going to give China an incredible edge over the United States, unless the American people kind of have a different relationship with AI.
But there's all, like, as much as there's a value in AI and Tim's take on AI content is largely correct, the idea that people don't want to watch other actual people, I think that that's wrong.
And so, what's happening is you're getting desperate people who are like, Trump's a secret Jew because they're doing anything they can to try and keep viewers as people are producing AI content.
And it's like a neutral tool, it's a mechanical bowl.
And so we need to kind of explain.
That's going to be an interesting, probably future show.
That's pretty popular amongst Americans, about amongst humans is like talking about the AI, like we used to talk about the news or what Josie said to him.
You know, like now we'll just everyone's gonna know you're gonna be wearing a device that's gonna talk to you in real time because we already have these glasses, everyone's already walking around with them, they're becoming ubiquitous, and people have cell phones.
If you don't have an earbud in, you'll pick your phone and go, Hey, I'm looking to blah and then it'll just talk to you and it'll give you answers.
Well, that was one of the things that Peter Thiel said.
Like when they were talking about trans people, like Peter Thiel was like, you know, they're actually not going far enough because in the future, we're going to have people that are going to be modifying their bodies and stuff in ways that we can't imagine right now.
I do want to say this is hitting very close to home, though, because I don't know if you guys know my kidneys failed four years ago and I was on dialysis for three and a half years waiting for a kidney transplant.
I got one six months ago from one of my YouTube subscribers.
I didn't grow up Christian, but my donor said that he was compelled by Jesus Christ to save my life and give me his kidney.
So shout out to my living donor, Charlie.
But one of the worst parts about receiving an organ transplant are the anti rejection meds.
So you basically have to take medication to suppress your immune system.
And with that comes a lot of nasty side effects.
So, the world that you guys are describing, the future, they're going to be able to build organs out of your own body, probably through stem cells, that you won't need any anti rejection medications for.
If your lungs are failing, if your liver's failing, if your kidneys are failing, they'll just build you one, cut you open, take out the damaged one, and put in the new one.
That's one of the worst things that we do as humans.
There was a video on X that went viral recently about how they slaughter pigs and they basically put them on this kind of like conveyor belt type thing.
What we should do is we should create large robots that can police these superpowered individuals and we can give them a cool name, maybe something based off ancient Rome or something, like a sentinel.
I have this idea of maybe it'd be a sci fi story, but in the future, I imagine that there's going to be people that are like, we don't want to have any kind of augmentation at all.
And they're going to be like the pure people, like the purest.
And then there's going to be, I imagine, like super modified people that are like in a cult that are like, our job is to protect the normal people.
Like, we're like the knights.
Of the old that exist to protect the Sentinelese truck.
If there are super powered individuals due to genetic alterations, there will be mechanically enhanced people.
So there will be police that are wearing enhanced suits, and you will not be standard issue for civilians.
It will be like if you've got a problem with the mutants, you join the Corps, and they'll give you one of these suits, and you can use that to police the crazy powered people.

We got Paige.
What does it say?
I can't pronounce your name.
Let's say Paige.
My son Nolan has been watching Timcast with me since he was about a toddler and is turning nine.
Could y'all wish him a happy birthday?
Fills his fave and talks with him the first Sunday of each month.
Kendall says send Ian to the actual negotiations to televise the Angel Studios negotiations to the end of the Iran war because it's not a war at this point.
SA Federale says My first platoon sergeant got Siri new and wanted to show us that it literally showed you the best place to hide a body based on location.
And when large groups of people, through no fault of their own, are excised from the economy and can't get food or feed their kids, they burn things down and kill people.
I know the body will hold graphene because it's inert carbon in the system.
Like when they broke a mouse's spine and then they threaded graphene tethers from both directions to touch, and then the spine regrew around the graphene tethers.
In 18 days, the mouse, who was completely paralyzed, had 88% motility again.
Honky Kong says the island is actually the truth of what happened on Epstein's Island.
People are being cloned and harvested in underground bunkers on Epstein Island.
I mean, I don't know about that on Epstein Island, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out that wealthy people are cloning people and doing weird stuff.
So if you and your buddies are here and you want your friends to go over here, but there's guys shooting over here, the guys with the machine guns shoot at those guys while these guys move, right?
So the point isn't like, oh, I want to use the machine gun up close.
It's to make the people that are shooting at you get their heads down.
So you put a bunch of bullets going at them so they get their heads down so your friends can move.
And so you've got guys blocking, but they're blocking by shooting so many bullets at the other guys that they want to get their heads down because there's so many bullets they don't want to get hit.
Oh, yeah, you can follow me at Carter Banks everywhere and Carter Banks official everywhere else and follow our label at Trash House Records on YouTube, Phil.
I mean, there are specific laws in Texas where, like, they've used this case where, like, this one guy shot off his balcony at a gang of people that kept coming back to his parking lot to steal, like, property from him that he could not get back.
Well, I don't know that they were, I don't know if they were actually messing with his car when he shot him, but because he was in a hidden position waiting for them, that's lying in wait.
But if he'd gone out and confronted him, they take a step towards him.
Like in this case, right?
Like as soon as, like she's, if that were, if she had walked outside and the dude took a step towards her and she shot him, most, not all states, but most states, you'd have been like, okay, well, he was approaching you with a weapon.
You know, in like New York, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Massachusetts, you know, there's seven or eight states where, you know, they'd have been like, no, you should have stayed inside.
You should have called the cops.
And look, I'm as pro 2A as it comes and pro self defense as it comes, but she didn't have a weapon.
She should have stayed inside.
And so I understand the argument.
You should have stayed inside and called the cops.
But look, as soon as the guy started walking towards her, it stopped being a property crime.
As soon as he's like, I've got a weapon, I'm walking towards you, it's no longer about the property.
Now, she wasn't prepared to defend herself, but as soon as someone takes a step towards you, then you have a reason.
Directed at the entire panel, because I know Tim, you've got some on the field reporting experience as well as the guest.
And Phil, you have crowd control experience.
You dealt with numerous quantities of people.
But with the whole Taco Tuesday situation and pannikins falling for drama every single time, how retarded is the average person?
Specifically, the politically unplugged and misled and underinformed individuals.
It seems like everyone that's in the Discord or, you know, a lot of the guests that you have on, they seem pretty with it as far as understanding complex things.
But, like, you guys see way more people out in the world than I have.
So I just wanted your perspective of, like, how stupid.
I mean, look, you're going to, like, I mean, the whole, you know, George Carlin, like, think of how stupid the average person is.
And then imagine the fact that half of the people out there are stupider than that.
Like, It is hard to find intelligent people.
We were at Tim's birthday dinner and Michael Malice was there and we were talking.
And the idea we were talking about the idea of like an innovative thought because someone had said something about like reading books and how like, oh, you get all your ideas from books.
That's a very stupid thing to say because most people get their information and their knowledge from someone else.
An actual innovation.
Is so exceedingly rare, like a real innovation, like really something that actually changes the way people look at stuff.
It's exceedingly rare.
Even the smartest people that you know, most of them got all of their information from someone else.
Like we all stand on the shoulders of giants.
The idea that, you know, they stand on the shoulders of midgets.
Well, I mean, they do.
But the average person will say, oh, you know, I had this great idea and I had this great idea and blah, blah, blah.
And it's like, did you really?
Do you think that you're the first person to think of that?
And if they say, Yeah, man, or I'm so much smarter than everybody else, those people are everywhere.
And they're not actually smarter than everyone else.
In fact, they're probably a little bit below average.
I mean, oh, listen, I appreciate the fact that you're being kind, but like most people, most music, like, I mean, dude, all this almost every All That Remains song is basically the same four chords.
What it's in C sharp, A minor, F, C, G, E, C, G, and D usually, but like most of the time, like that, that's the way that most pop music is the same progression.
Like, so Einstein, like, he had an innovative idea.
You know, Newton, when he wrote the Principia, like, he struggled to write that for a fucking year.
And he basically isolated himself from anybody.
But he figured out the mathematics to describe the way that gravity works.
And he was right to a certain extent.
But then Einstein came along and it was like, actually, no, some of the things that you thought were wrong.
But these kind of real innovations, they're so rare.
You know, and so like really, really, really smart people are exceedingly rare and they should be treated like you should treat them like a valuable resource.
Because if the average person is still struggling with intelligence, it's like, do you need to be in the top 10% of intellect to be a third order thinker?
Like, how common is that to think beyond what's beyond?
Yeah, so I actually had a second part of that where, with the people being stupid generally, is there an opportunity for society at large to break through the veil of misinformation or general idiocy?
Or is it, you know, with AI coming out, is it going to be too hard to outpace?
When we're talking about AI porn bots, you guys don't understand.
Like, it's not that you're going to design a porn bot, it's that you're going to turn it on and it's going to be some hot chick and she's going to be like, do you like what you see?
And the guy's going to go, nah, your tits aren't big enough.
There's some fat guy in a fedora right now who's just thinking, I just wish someone would say, I love you.
And then you go to a woman and you go, Hi, would you like to?
Ew, rape.
And he's going to be like, I don't know what to do.
And then he's going to be sweaty and like nervous.
Then he's going to go and he's going to have his computer and there's going to be his big tittied anime waifu with cat ears being like, Oh, it's baby sad.
And he's going to be like, I'm going to put on my fleshlight right now.
Can you start talking while I do it?
That's the future.
That's the movie Idiocracy should have been about.
I don't know that they're actually the same four chords because I think that what they're doing is what it uses, it's the same four chord progression, yeah, exactly.
Yeah, so they're not the same key, but all he's done is taken a chord progression and the keys are different, but it's functionally the same thing, yeah.
And then he changes the time signature, yeah, D, C, G.
Those are my first no, it's AF, it's AF, C, G is the chords that he uses, AF, C, G, F, C is the most top 40s are AF, C, G. F to C, dude.
We were like, they're not going to build, because Gavin Newsom was saying, oh, you know, we're going to expedite permits and blah, And we were like, this is not going to happen.
In a year, there will not be any new construction.
They could have built all of those homes in a year.
Like, all of those homes could be replaced, but it's not happening.
Because of California's licensing laws and permitting laws.
