	Ladies and gentlemen of the interwebs, Soren Kierkegaard wisely said, Life can only be understood backwards, yet must be lived forwards.
	Once you have met one salesman, it makes it a lot easier to identify other salesmen.
	Behold, Zoran Mamdani, salesman of hopes and dreams.
	Okay, so, you know, everyone else is putting their view on this, of what this means, okay?
	Your victory.
	What do you think it means?
	I think it means that we are ready in the most expensive city in the United States to have five boroughs that New Yorkers can actually afford.
	And this entire race was about the question of affordability.
	And ultimately, I have run a campaign that speaks about the tools that city government actually has to deliver that affordability in the wealthiest city and the wealthiest country in the world.
	And it's time that we have a mayoral administration that follows through and actually delivers that.
	All right.
	So I want to talk about some of that.
	But first, the breaking news, Isaac DeVera is reporting that Andrew Cuomo is not dropping out of the general election race, right?
	And it's kind of a willery-won-y, but the deadline's tomorrow.
	Is this a surprise to you?
	Ultimately, Andrew's decision or my decision matters less than the decision that voters already took on Tuesday night, where we won from Bay Ridge to Diker Heights to Harlem to Washington Heights.
	We saw a mandate delivered for a new generation of leadership.
	And I am so proud and excited to continue to build on that mandate with an ever-expanding coalition, one that has now included the endorsements of Congressman Jerry Nadler, of State Senator Brad Hoyman Siegel, and Manhattan Borough President's soon-to-be controller, Mark Levine.
	And ultimately, that is a coalition that will continue to expand through November.
	Mandate.
	When I used to be a lawyer, a practicing lawyer, there was no word I hated more than the term mandate.
	When you're a young Stager intern and you're a young lawyer, the senior lawyers give you mandates.
	Do a research into this, prepare a memo on that, and everyone's like walking around saying, hey, how many mandates are you working on?
	I hate the word mandate.
	I especially hate it when people, I'm not going to say I hate people who misuse the term.
	What Zoran Mamdani got the other day from New York can ne'er be qualified as a mandate.
	Choking on my own tongue here.
	This guy who just won the primary, who is now the Democrat nominee candidate for the mayoral race, was picked.
	And I think he got 35% of the aggregate vote in the primaries to become the nominee for the Democrat Party.
	That is not a mandate.
	The fact that whether or not, I think there were a number of people that ran, Cuomo got a substantial percent.
	How much did he get?
	I have to double check the numbers on that.
	That is not a mandate when you are elected by the people who vote within the party to nominate you as the candidate for that party.
	The mandate might come, and I will not use any Lord's name in vain.
	Hope to goodness it doesn't come because if it comes, it will come at the expense of New York and New Yorkers.
	The mandate will come when you get the majority of the vote in the general election.
	The mandate will come if you get a smashing majority.
	What I don't yet fully appreciate, understand, I'm not sure where I can go with this because I can make the argument both ways.
	If Cuomo doesn't back out and runs as an independent, does that hurt Eric Adams more than Zoran Mamdami?
	Or does that hurt Zoran Mamdami more than it hurts Eric Adams?
	Because those who voted for Cuomo in the primaries will now vote for, no, they'll vote for Cuomo and then take that vote away from Mamdani.
	And those who were going to vote for Eric Adams are going to vote for Eric Adams.
	I don't know how it's going to play out because I could sort of steelman the argument both ways.
	But for Zoran Mamdani to get up there on MSNBC propaganda and say he's got a clear mandate from New Yorkers as if he's already won the general, it's propaganda of the highest order.
	It's propaganda of a salesperson, of a salesman.
	And once you can look into the eyes, he's got a great presentation.
	He's got a very Obama-esque presentation delivery.
	I dare say, if I had to go by pure, superficial, skin-deep charisma, I think he's actually a bit of a better speaker than Obama was.
	Very smooth, very chasmatic.
	He's got the eyes.
	It's the eyes.
	When you have dead eyes, it comes through.
	But you can fake it.
	You just go like this all the time.
	And then you can fake authenticity.
	You can fake sincerity.
	And my goodness, when the guy comes out and says, now, you know, we have to make this city more affordable for everybody.
	Has it occurred to you why it's gotten to where it's gotten?
	Is the major question.
	Zoran is going to kill New York City in terms of viability, commercial viability, faster than communism in and of itself.
	Remember when, what's her face?
	Hochl is talking about state policy and you've got the people involved in investing.
	You've got the guy from the shark tank there, Kevin O'Leary, Mr. Wonderful, lofty name for himself.
	Mr. Wonderful saying, we're going to pack up and leave New York City.
	And I pulled the video yesterday where you've got people who run businesses in New York saying, government-run grocery stores, we're out of here.
	Government-run anything has never worked better than private industry.
	If only because I'm not saying one is more moral than the other, although some people out there are sufficiently ignorant and naive that they think government, for some reason, is more moral than private enterprise.
	Both are governed by their own internal rules of corruption.
	When it comes to private enterprise, the bottom line is the corruption.
	They want to make as much money as possible, but you don't get to make as much money as possible by screwing your clients, your customers.
	In government, my goodness, the more you screw people, the more power you can give yourself.
	And in government, there's financial corruption, there's power corruption, and I don't trust the government to do any private business better than private business.
	You look at what's going up on in Canada and everybody looks at socialized healthcare, universal healthcare.
	Oh, it's so wonderful.
	It's so wonderful that record numbers of people are dying in the ERs.
	Record numbers of people are dying waiting for doctors, but at least it's free.
	Although it's never free, you raging jackasses, Because they say anywhere between 25 and 50 cents of every tax dollar goes to the healthcare system.
	So you make $100,000 in Canada.
	You basically get taxed at 50%.
	And it basically gets squandered off through government corruption.
	I think we got Jeremy.
	It gets squandered off through government corruption.
	And then you get shit for what you've already paid in advance for such that it's not there when you need it.
	Jeremy, I wasn't going to make the announcement because I wasn't sure if it was going to happen.
	And I didn't want to look like I'm like, I make the public announcement to force you to come, but thank you for coming on.
	How are you doing?
	Yeah, no, I was just having a brave was not letting me access my camera.
	I would have been on time, so I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry I'm late.
	There's my staring into a cat's asshole right now.
	You are.
	Yeah.
	Literally.
	Yeah.
	Proverbial black hole.
	Jeremy, everybody, I wasn't going to announce it, but I have to announce it now.
	Jeremy's on.
	We're going to talk.
	How much time do you have?
	You're going to be able to do the show today?
	I'm okay.
	Yeah.
	Because there's something that I wanted to talk to you about for a while now, which we're going to get into.
	But good afternoon, everybody.
	Jeremy from the quartering, if you don't know him, just finished his show.
	I was listening to him before we went live.
	And we're going to talk about a bunch of stuff today.
	Supreme Court rulings.
	It's been like W after W after W. Gavin Newsom suing Fox News for $787 million.
	But speaking of, you know, like salesmen selling stuff because they know that it will work among young people and no good deed going unpunished.
	Not related, but Jeremy, dude, what the hell?
	Okay, so you've talked about it at length with your audience, but you started the Give Send Go for, I forget the guy's name now.
	Jacob Wells, I believe.
	No, Jacob Wells is the CEO of Give Send Go.
	Oh, that's right.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	I forget his name.
	A guy decapitated him while he was sitting at a park bench.
	And you decided to be a good person and do what good people do is for no personal profit or gain, started Give Send Go for the family.
	This was when he was still in intensive care.
	I don't know who thought there was going to be a survival of this, but he passed away.
	And then the shit hit the fan.
	And I don't want to put you in a tough spot.
	I don't know what you're allowed to or want to discuss publicly, but it went sideways, what you tried to do.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	I mean, essentially it became a situation where, and I've done multiple gives and goes or GoFundMes for people throughout the years.
	It's always been pretty straightforward.
	In this particular case, it was a family that, you know, the first story that came out was, oh, it's just some dude who was sitting in a park bench and some derange black guy chopped his head off.
	And they were just out in California mourning the death of having a miscarriage like days or a few months before that.
	And I was like, oh, well, that's about as bad as it gets, you know?
	Then it ended up where, so the money, you know, I started the GoFundMe or the gifts and go, sorry.
	And it raised somewhere like 80 grand.
	I put $5,000 of my own dollars in there.
	You know, a lot of people donated a lot of money to it.
	And it was just a feel-good story, right?
	Like there's no reason not to give this guy, you know, to bless this guy, hopefully his family, you know.
	Well, it turned out I found out pretty quick this family was very troubled.
	Like troubled.
	Yes, I'll say that.
	You know, look, I don't, everyone's been through stuff.
	And, you know, I'll say this, his brother clearly loved him very much, which who was kind of my main point of contact.
	But after I started talking to him, I was getting messages from this, like three, four, five, six different people who all claimed to be part of the family and all seemingly were part of the family.
	And, you know, then I was talking to lawyers in that town and they're like, oh, yeah, we know this family.
	So apparently there was a long history of drug problems in this family.
	Then it turns out, at least allegedly, they didn't just miscarry the baby.
	They lost the baby because of drug use.
	So I'm like, oh, well, I'm starting to not want to give drug addicts a bunch of money, allegedly.
	But again, I talked to his brother who had no skin in the game and had only wanted essentially to, we agreed after I was like, yo, I'm not giving anybody this money.
	They said, oh, well, he's got a daughter and a son.
	I said, okay, well, let's give the kids the money.
	Well, the son's not his.
	I'm like, okay, well, who is his?
	So he had like kids from, you know, and then they ended up sicking the local media on me.
	I had reporters call me being like, why don't you just give her the money?
	Like this woman called me.
	Why don't you just give her the money?
	I'm like, this would be his girlfriend, ex-wife slash girlfriend.
	I guess we were still palling around afterwards.
	I said, she's a drug addict.
	I'm not giving her money.
	She's like, but isn't that what it's for?
	She's supposed to get the money.
	This is a reporter that was saying that.
	No, it's for those who, and for those who don't know, have never had experience.
	I mean, you give a large sum of money to a drug addict, you're effectively signing their death warrant.
	And I'm not trying to be hyperbolic or dramatic.
	Yeah, I mean, I've dealt with addiction in my, you know, myself throughout the years.
	Thank God it never got like too bad.
	But there were a couple of moments where I was like, man, I, you know, woke up in the morning like, man, I, I think I do like opium.
	Like, there, so like, I, I know what it's like.
	And I've lost friends to addiction.
	You don't give drugs, as hard as it is, you don't give drug addicts money.
	Like, you don't.
	And, you know, quite frankly, then she had some lawyer contacting me.
	And I was like, I don't know if you know this, but like, I kind of know a few lawyers too, buddy.
	And like, I called in a few favors from people who shall remain nameless lest they want to be named.
	It turns out this, basically, let me put it this way.
	I view that money as basically 90% or more raised by either my inner circle or the immediate circle outside of that.
	That's where that money came from.
	And so I have a responsibility.
	This is what I told their lawyer who was threatening to sue me.
	I'm like, I have a responsibility for this money.
	If I may stop either, sue you to compel you to release the money to the family.
	To the girlfriend.
	Not even the, they weren't even married, which I was under the impression they were married.
	So, my, and then, and by the way, in all my dealings, which was almost three months, I still don't know where his daughter is.
	I don't know where his daughter is.
	Like, she was clearly not with them in California.
	Who had the daughter?
	And so I'm like, I don't know where the daughter is.
	She's a minor.
	I'm not giving a kid $80,000.
	So basically, my last concession was set up a trust.
	And I will give, if you can prove that this is his biological daughter, we can set up a trust where she gets like a little bit at 18, a little bit at 23, and then a little more at like 27 or something like that.
	So I didn't know if the daughter also had drug problems because usually that stuff runs in the family too.
	And they had months almost.
	They had like at least a month to just bother to set up this trust and they didn't do it.
	So if you've dealt with drug addicts before, as I have, not just in my own behavior, but my own friends, you've probably lost money or you've been ripped off by them, which I have.
	I mean, I had a good friend who had a powder problem.
	He constantly needed money.
	He would lie to me all the time and I would say, I'm not going to give you money, but you could come work for it.
	He was maybe the worst worker I've ever had.
	You know, if you've ever dealt with an addict, they're not, the reason I'm so cynical about it is not because I'm a jerk.
	I'm actually a very caring guy and very understanding.
	But I've dealt with enough addicts to know that it's not them anymore.
	You know, like once they're that hard, we're not talking about someone who maybe drinks a little bit too much.
	We're talking about somebody who's a hardcore drug addict.
	They're not the same person.
	It's chemical brain imbalance.
	It's basically insanity that could be remedied if you go through the proper treatment.
	I mean, kind of like much like what we're witnessing with the Liver King right now, if it's not an outright psychotic break, it's probably drug-induced mania.
	And they are literally not themselves and they are literally their own worst enemies and alienate themselves from everybody else that has ever loved them, cared for them, or wanted to have anything to do with them.
	Yeah, I have a bold prediction that Liver King will be dead by the end of the year.
	I'm on record because I've seen this type of behavior before.
	Obviously, everyone knows that he's injected enormous amounts of $1,000 of steroids a month was or continues to be his issue.
	Yeah, it's almost certainly more than that now.
	We now, I mean, we know, like, there are people, hey, RFK Jr. takes roids.
	Sylvester Sallone, he's in his 70s, maybe even 80 now, famously has always been a steroid user.
	There's that, and there's whatever the heck, Liver King, you know, he did a video where his intestines don't even work anymore.
	He has to lay on the ground and give himself an enema to have a bowel movement every day.
	I didn't understand that, actually.
	It's funny.
	I was watching someone's analysis who was talking about why they didn't understand why he was talking about his bowel movements in the shower.
	And then someone else was talking about his apparently distended stomach and now that and his umbilical.
	Yeah, he's got that, they call it bubble gut you get like from prolonged steroid use.
	I actually think his abs on top are implants on top of his bubble gut.
	That's what I think because his belly's so big.
	You don't normally have a big belly and then have that thick, that pronounced abs on top.
	I think those are silicone injections.
	I also have a theory that if you've ever dealt with opioids, even as just like you have your wisdom teeth pulled out, or if you've known somebody who is an opioid abuser, here's my theory.
	You let me know if this tracks with you.
	If you go back and you look at a lot of the world's best bodybuilders, most of them famously, their bodies are completely broken by the time they're 40 or 50.
	I always forget the guy's name, Ronnie, was it Ronnie Coleman from the UFC?
	Yeah, I don't know.
	I don't remember if he's UFC, but I thought he was just a bodybuilder.
	I could be, they did a documentary on him where he's basically in a wheelchair and he has to like walk all hunched over.
	I thought he was a power.
	I know who you're talking about.
	I was thinking there's a Coleman in the UFC, but that could be.
	I'm very bad with names.
	This is him.
	That's him.
	Yeah.
	Like his body's completely broken.
	My theory is that Liver King is probably in almost daily pain from what he's put his body through.
	And I think he has an opioid addiction, which if you know anything about opioids, one of the number one, the number one side effect is constipation and having, you know, having difficulty with ball moves.
	Oftentimes they'll prescribe dual softeners with it if you're on that.
	I think this mania is, it's probably most likely from the cocktail of drugs that he's constantly using, or it's from opioids, like drug, you know, just to move, get up and move around, but this guy's in all sorts of pain.
	Well, people were astutely observing.
	I didn't notice it the first time.
	His pupils are not just dilated.
	They're unevenly dilated.
	One is massively, which way it goes.
	One is constricted.
	The other one's dilated.
	And it's, and I was asking privately somebody who was going to, maybe he'll come on next week to talk about it.
	But yeah, I don't, I wouldn't make that prediction public because it's sort of almost like betting on something terrible.
	But I said, yeah, he's, he's going to, he's going to end up either through OD, through accident, through suicide by cop.
	Something, it's a who are you talking about here?
	I'm talking about Danton Liver King as well.
	Oh, that's what I think too.
	I said it privately.
	I don't like it.
	I mean, you mentioned it.
	I say like, make it make it happen.
	I don't want it to happen, just to be clear.
	You try to get someone in that manic stage to understand.
	They don't understand it.
	That's the issue.
	It's sanity and makes sense in their mind.
	They don't, it's like they say crazy, dumb, and dead.
	Don't know that they're crazy, dumb, and dead.
	And he, you know, it makes sense in his mind what journey he thinks he's on with Joe Rogan.
	We've seen this with famously with a YouTube content creator and streamer on Fusitube.
	Remember him?
	Yep.
	He had these manic episodes where, you know, he was filming himself, live streaming and doing all sorts of Like, people have a lot less of an excuse in 2025 to not understand what a manic state is.
	Kanye West, another guy.
	Like, I find it hard to believe that Kanye West really wants to sell Swaska merch.
	Like, it's possible.
	It's possible.
	But, like, you know, the stuff that he, it's like, if you've ever talked to somebody who's manic, and I have, like you said, they are in an alternate reality that is 100% real to them.
	And if you watch that video of even, you know, a lot of times if like bipolar people have this, but like fits of mania generally are shorter.
	But if you're not on any meds, you could have, you could have a manic episode that lasts weeks or months or whatever.
	Kanye, we know, was like this.
	And you watch that video of Liver King in the four seasons and like he's, he's not, he seems manic.
	What's the video in the four seasons?
	He filmed a video.
	I think Colin Rugg posted it pretty shortly after being released.
	And he's on his ankle monitoring.
	And he's on the shaking thing on the ground.
	He's on a vibration machine and he's talking about the vibrations of the universe.
	No, no, this is newer.
	So he's on the balcony of, let's see if I can find it too.
	I'll do it while you talk.
	He's on this balcony.
	He's got an ankle monitor on and he's like talking about, you know, I'm going to go to City Hall.
	The press is going to be there.
	I'm like, this guy wants like to self-terminate by cop.
	Like something is, he's like, he needs to be committed.
	And now I don't know what the laws are in Texas.
	I suspect you cannot involuntarily commit somebody there.
	The funny thing is, I say funny, in the earliest stages of my law career, we used to do these things at the law firm called motions for confinement.
	And it was when people are in a state in which they're a danger to themselves or other, you got to go to a judge, basically ex parte, and you get a medical report that says these people, and they need to be confined for up to 72 hours, treated, and then, you know, they can extend it.
	And another interesting, it's been long enough that I can mention it.
	I had a client former, now deceased.
	They took their own life, but manic.
	And they didn't know it.
	Everybody around them knew it.
	And it was dangerous for them, dangerous for others.
	And I said, this person's going to take their own life and take someone else's life.
	And I say, you know, by some fortunate event, they only took their own life, but it was like crazy stalking behavior, crazy harassment behavior.
	And it all makes sense in their mind.
	But I got the video.
	It's five minutes.
	I won't play the entire thing.
	Yeah, you can just see his state of mind early on.
	But Rogan versus Liver King, again, it's not what you think.
	I'm talking about the filmmaker, the funny, the actual genius comedian, good and true.
	Seth Rollins.
	That guy's good and true.
	I'll pick a fun fight with him.
	So we're going to go there for that reason.
	But 200 yards.
	200 yards.
	Well, I'll pause it there.
	Even the way he talks is like his cadence is weird.
	And his, you know, he's making no sense.
	He's like, you know, he goes, oh, I got to go to the Capitol.
	And, you know, this and like, I'm just like, he's like.
	Joining thoughts.
	Yeah, he's like just one weird, one, he's like a half step away from seeing ghosts and jumping off his balcony or something crazy, you know, like, I hope he gets help because, you know, I think what's not factoring into this too, I don't know if, do you remember the Tiger King sensation?
	It was right when COVID happened.
	Like universally loved at the time, documentary, mockumentary, documentary, well, technically.
	I know it was a documentary.
	And not Lion King, what was it called again?
	Tiger King.
	Tiger King famously thought he was going to get a pardon, was banking on it, you know, brought ordered a limo thinking he was going to get pardoned when Trump either left office or and the second time when he came back in.
	Interesting legal case.
	Well, you know what's funnier about that?
	You know what?
	His boyfriend got deported.
	I didn't know that.
	Where did he get deported to?
	I think back to, I think he's from Mexico, but yeah, like just a few weeks ago, his boyfriend got deported, which is kind of hilarious.
	But where I'm going is it's a windy road a little bit, but I promise I have a point.
	So there was a Tiger King documentary, and it was actually temporarily good for whatever his name is.
	Now, every time I talk about the Tiger King documentary, as a cat and pet lover, I feel obliged, obligated to tell people that that documentary skipped over a lot of the heinous stuff that he actually did do to tigers.
	They did not cover a lot of the terrible, they found some 20, 30 dead tigers buried on it.
	The stuff he got convicted of was barely even covered in that documentary.
	So as I learned more about him, I was like, oh, I mean, it was so hilarious.
	The memes were incredible.
	I'm as gay as a $3 bill.
	And it was, you know, all this stuff was so great.
	But then I was like, oh, he's actually a piece of garbage.
	With Tiger King, I think this probably started with there was a new Tiger King documentary that came out.
	And he probably thought he was going to look good in it.
	And I think Tiger and I think Netflix got a lot of blowback from not just the way they presented Tiger King, but also famously making a murder.
	I live in Wisconsin.
	I knew that case.
	I knew how it was covered in local media.
	And Netflix made that case seem like there was a lot more gray area when there really wasn't.
	These guys were actually horrible humans, but everyone that watched the documentary were like, oh, they were innocent.
	I watched a Tiger King documentary or Liver King, and they pretty much clowned him The whole time.
	And I think that might have been what set this off.
	I don't know that.
	It's just a, you know, but it seems, I don't know when the Liver King documentary came out.
	I think it was somewhat recently.
	So I'm thinking maybe he thought that, you know, that was going to be his big break to come back.
	And they, they pretty much clowned him.
	Yep.
	Well, but to tie it up with the story, with how he got into this, ultimately gives and go.
	Gives and go all the money.
	All the money went back to the donors.
	Yep.
	I ended up deciding, hey, you know, you know how it is.
	Like, it's not even just when you're dealing with addicts.
	It's like if you're dealing with a liar or somebody who's untrustworthy, you get that feeling.
	Like, you just know they're probably not going to fall.
	You give somebody the benefit of the doubt.
	And eventually I was like, why haven't you set up this trust?
	It takes like 30 minutes.
	You meet with a lawyer for maybe an hour, set up the trust.
	This is like bog standard, you know, leaving money to a minor trust.
	Anybody, any, you know, it's not, I mean, if I'm misspeaking, but as far as I understand, setting up a trust, we're not talking about a complicated thing.
	It's pretty standard.
	It would have cost five, 10,000 bucks, presumably, which I said I would pay for.
	So I said, we'll take the money out of the GoFundMe, give Sengo to pay to set up the trust.
	Yep.
	Because they were worried about that.
	I said, no, no, we'll, we'll do the, you know, 10 grand or whatever it costs, five, 10 grand.
	Whatever's left will go in the trust.
	And then just week after week after week passed.
	And I was like, this guy's never going to do it.
	Like, they're just never going to do it.
	And then they said, then they stick the press on me.
	Then anecdotally, anecdotally, I'll share a fun fact.
	Their lawyer contacted me.
	And I can't remember if I reached out to you at the time.
	I think I did.
	You know, those of you in chat who don't know me, I happen to know a few lawyers, whether it's in Viva or, you know, for those in the chat who don't know me, I'm a Vault.
	No one will ever know that someone has spoken to me privately unless they want to know or unless there's a compelling reason to disclose it.
	Yeah.
	But anyway, so I find out, allegedly, this is some old coot who's like in his 60s, who the chick, who his ex-wife was banging for legal advice.
	And so I just replied to him.
	I said, hey, I know what's going on.
	I mean, oh, did you sleep with this chick for this?
	She tell you, and then he just blocked me and never responded again.
	So, and then I also called a lawyer in that city trying to do this myself.
	And they were basically, oh, her?
	Yeah.
	And I was like, okay, I'm out.
	I don't feel good about, you know, my, my viewers' money going into this box.
	Well, it sucks for the kid.
	But, you know, everyone got their money back.
	I know I got, I mean, I saw mine come through.
	No, it comes back.
	It's automatic.
	I mean, Jacob and the company will do it sometimes.
	I say, notwithstanding the objections of the account creator, if there's a problem, they're going to do it.
	They want to avoid problems.
	They had to do it with the trucker convoy because there were some legal issues.
	And they said, we're never going to be able to disperse this the way it was intended to be dispersed.
	So everyone, take your money back.
	Well, I actually, yeah, and I had talked to Jacob as well.
	I said, what would you do?
	And he's like, I think we should refund it because even Give Send Go did not feel confident about where this money was going to go.
	And, you know, the newspaper that threatened to run an article, it was some local rag in Phoenix.
	I'm like, go ahead.
	You know, I'll make content off it.
	But they never ran the story.
	The lawyer never sued.
	You know, it was just like a complete and total, you know, failure.
	Yeah.
	Well, I mean, this is the road to hell is paved in good intentions.
	I've set up, and actually, this wasn't the intended segue, but I'll mention it.
	I set up four gives, send, goes, and it's only for people that I know that I could vouch for and that I know that no one's going to, you know, there's not going to be any drama that you don't want, but you get dragged into what surveilling a trust.
	Was there any, as it relates to the actual murder, was there any indication that it wasn't entirely random or was it in fact, it ended up being entirely random?
	I talked to a local beat reporter and there is some question on perhaps it was a drug transaction gone wrong.
	Okay.
	That's, I don't know that.
	No, it's that will come out in court, but it was implied to me that this wasn't, he wasn't just sitting idly on a park bench.
	And if you've ever known an addict, I mean, you know, it was, do random acts of violence happen?
	Heck yeah, they do.
	You know, a drug addict sitting on a park bench in the middle of the day, it would track.
	It would track maybe a drug deal gone wrong or whatever the case is.
	But yeah, I think his trial will start in July.
	You're going to be following that?
	I probably won't because I just don't even want to.
	No, you've already sort of established too close of a connection to the interested parties.
	Probably best.
	If he gets convicted and if it truly was like random active violence, I'll probably cover like the, you know, the process, you know, if he gets prosecuted, you know, or if he gets found guilty.
	This was not intended to be.
	This is actually total coincidental because I set this up this morning.
	And for those who don't know, Barnes' nephew, his sister's son, passed away suddenly last week.
	Everyone in our locals community knows.
	And I went to the, what's it called?
	The obituary.
	And there was a section to donate through the obituary for the kids' education.
	I said, it's too complicated to have multiple clicks.
	And so if anybody wants to support the family, I set up a gift, said, go, handed it off to Ellen, who was Sean's mother.
	And I say, like, he looked pretty young.
	Was he sick?
	He was young.
	I don't know.
	It was sudden.
	So it was unexpected and sudden.
	And it's, I mean, growing up, one of my cousins died, was murdered, unclear in a foreign country.
	And it's the, obviously, the most devastating thing any parent can go through.
	Yeah.
	But so I, I, To simplify supporting the family, and instead of getting, you know, flowers are nice, but flowers, they're in the trash the next day.
	Um, a donation.
	So, everybody's got the link there if you want to give to it.
	That's the give, send, go.
	See how expensive you take time off work, you need money to bridge the gap.
	It's unbelievably difficult.
	He had kids, which are going to, you know, growing up without a father.
	And it's just, anyways, if you, if everybody wants to, it's there.
	I sent it in our locals community, and that's that.
	But we're going to move on to things that are not morbidly depressing, Jeremy, because there has been some, I say, set aside your attempt to be a good human.
	You learned a lesson.
	What did you learn, Jeremy?
	Don't get involved with in a land warning.
	There's a classic line from The Simpsons, I think season three or four, where Homer's talking to Bart.
	And he says, you tried your best and you failed.
	The lesson is never try.
	Something like that.
	And this is like, this is the danger.
	I did practice law for 13 years.
	You never see anything go right.
	And you realize that client who ended up stalking and I still remember the color of his car and the make of the car.
	And it took me a few years after he was no longer alive to get over that immediate tremor that you get when you see the car, like that color vehicle.
	Yeah.
	But then you realize, like, A, trust your instincts.
	And B, don't deal with people unless you know them because things go south even when you know people.
	People get divorced when they love each other.
	You're trying to do good to strangers on the internet.
	And it just, I mean, it makes it difficult.
	You got to pick your charities.
	But the good news, I guess the good news of the day, you're following the story coming out of the Supreme Court?
	Yeah, I mean, there are a couple W's today, right?
	The ability to, I mean, the birthright stuff, the being able to opt your kids out of LGBTQ books.
	Which one are you referring to?
	Well, the LGBTQ one, I haven't actually gotten too familiar with yet, but no, the one, the nationwide injunctions.
	Have you, I mean, you've seen, I don't know if you've seen the, let me see here, is this it?
	Some of the some of the portions of the ruling.
	It's Katanji Brown, Katanji KD.
	I saw she got blown out.
	I don't know how, I mean, I don't know how, I mean, it's like, she deserves it.
	I don't know how they actually say this in a court ruling because they talk over, this is what Barnes was saying.
	Like, they're taking a long time to issue this ruling.
	There must be some internal strife, internal conflict.
	6-3, six of the so-called conservatives and the three liberals dissenting.
	But this is nationwide injunctions.
	The argument was that the federal district courts do not have the power to issue nationwide injunctions.
	It's basically unconstitutional because you've got.
	Viva, let me ask you, because as a layperson, are you referring to all these like, oh, a federal judge puts a stop to this?
	A federal, is that, is that what that is?
	Yeah, basically.
	I never understood how they had that power.
	Like, what the hell?
	How come they're stopping what the president's doing?
	Aren't they below him?
	I never understood that.
	To the effect that birthright citizenship will not include as people that had hitherto been considered included, people born of parents who were not lawfully in the country or not in the country with the intended permanent residence.
	No anchor babies.
	No anchor babies.
	I mean, that's basically it.
	And then you get these judges that say, it's unconstitutional.
	I'm issuing an injunction or a TRO injoining Trump from enforcing his own executive order.
	And so it's one thing, you know, like it's the checks and balances.
	You got the legislative branch, the executive branch, the judicial branch.
	Executive, well, legislative drafts the laws, judicial interprets the laws, and the executive enforces the laws.
	But then you got your separation of powers where you get federal district courts enjoining the president from issuing executive orders, basically saying we are more powerful than the president.
	And what's amazing is how come this was never an issue before?
	Because my understanding, and I reserve the right to be wrong, people, Barnes and I are going to talk about it in much greater detail on Sunday.
	They never issued nationwide injunctions until the last 60 years, give or take.
	So it was never an issue to be considered.
	And then they became a little bit more common.
	And then they just became absolutely abused by the lower courts.
	And really just since Trump's second term, right?
	I mean, that's when they become wildly abused.
	But they basically carved out an exception to themselves, which was never adjudicated at the Supreme Court level until now.
	And just, I mean, so where they nailed Justice Jackson, I mean, it's so blisteringly bad.
	And I'll read it so that nobody, nobody, it actually started up higher up here.
	No one disputes that the executive has a duty to follow the law.
	This is the most beautiful part.
	The judiciary does not have unbridled authority to enforce this obligation.
	In fact, sometimes the law prohibits the judiciary from doing so.
	And then they talk about Marbury versus Madison, which I don't have a sufficient understanding of it to lecture on, but that's the one that basically says, you know, the courts don't enjoin the president.
	You can't get an injunction against the president.
	Let's see where it was.
	It's not an executive power if some local judge can simply overrule it.
	Basically, they say Justice Jackson skips over that part because analyzing the government, the governing statute involves boring, quote, legalese.
	And this is the word she used.
	She seeks to answer a, quote, far more basic question of enormous practical significance.
	May a federal court in the, look at this, in the United States of America order the executive to follow the law.
	In other words, it's unnecessary to consider whether Congress has constrained the judiciary.
	This is what Barnes was saying.
	Congress can eliminate their even power to do anything, basically.
	And she says, what matters is how the judiciary may constrain the executive.
	Justice Jackson would do well to heed her own admonition.
	Everyone from the president on down is bound by the law.
	And then they say that goes for judges too, because it's basically saying Jack posted.
	It's like they're humiliating her.
	Yeah, this is like a public judicial beating.
	I have to, I was going to, I got to weigh my words because there was another port that was even better.
	Jack put this up.
	Let me see if we've seen this here.
	The principal dissent, this is Supreme Court has published an opinion that includes a section explaining that Gatachi Brown Jackson can't seem to understand the legal arguments being made in the case.
	The principal dissent focuses on conventional legal terrain, like the Judiciary Act of 1789 and our cases on equity.
	Justice Jackson, however, I put it in caps, chooses a startling line of attack that is tethered neither to these, to these, what the hell, neither to these sources, nor frankly, to any doctrine whatsoever.
	Waving away attention to the limits on judicial power as a quote mind-numbingly technical query.
	This is so they called her lazy, too.
	They imply that she didn't want to do the work.
	She was basically saying it's painstakingly tedious judicial exercise in intellectual whatever.
	Skip it.
	No one's above the law.
	Their job?
	Their job?
	Is she saying that the job she was appointed to do is too much?
	Too much work?
	The comments, I can't, there's so many.
	You have to like, but they're going to accuse the majority of, well, I know they can accuse him of racism because Clarence Thomas was on the majority, but like, no, they're going to say these are dog whistles.
	These are the tropes of.
	Yeah, but so I mean, it's no, no adjudication on the merits.
	Basically, they said 6-3.
	You think Clarence is going to retire while Trump's president?
	I hope he does.
	Yeah, well, I mean, it would be a shame, but hopefully he doesn't pull the Ruth Gates.
	Well, hopefully he doesn't die, but you don't want to pull the Ruth Bader Ginsburg and stay on a little bit too long and then pass away or retire at the wrong time.
	There were rumors.
	There were rumors that Barack Obama himself tried to get her to retire because so he could appoint a liberal judge and she refused.
	And it's like, I mean, it's not just RBJ.
	It's like all like Maxine Waters.
	She looked like a walking skeleton and she did not, not Maxine Waters, Diane Feinstein.
	She died.
	She died, what was it, eight hours after her last vote?
	And that wasn't, I mean, that's not a, that's like, it's, it is unbelievable.
	It's, it's, it's unbelievable.
	But I think, you know, Republicans, maybe they'll play strategy a little bit better.
	And how old is Clarence Thompson?
	Clarence, he's like 80, I think.
	He's been pretty rock solid.
	It would suck to lose him.
	77.
	And like, I would say that Amy Coney Barrett was not a great pick.
	And she was Trump's, right?
	She's been, yeah, she's been say so.
	She's been wishy-washy.
	50-50 if we're being generous.
	Yeah.
	And Clarence has been of rock for the most part.
	So if he retires, I want somebody young who's going to, like, they went with Kinjati Brown.
	This lady's going to be able to serve on the Supreme Court for 50 years if she wants, 40 years.
	It's unbelievable.
	As far as I'm concerned, there is only one young, strong man who should replace Clarence.
	Thomas Cossey?
	No.
	William Stickman IV.
	Stickman is the only one to my memory that came up with amazing decisions during COVID, had the judicial testicular fortitude to issue those rulings.
	Stickman's amazing, young, and will be there forever.
	Yeah.
	KGB, ACB, they're there for 40 plus years.
	It's amazing.
	Yeah, it's outrageous.
	It should not be a lifetime appointment.
	It's absolutely absurd.
	You know, I get the appointments, but like, I don't want to live in a world where Kenjati Brown, who is an actual moron, is like, it's just like, I don't like having people in there who simply represent a vote.
	Like, hey, we have, I would rather, and I know this maybe isn't in my best interest now because the conservatives have a majority, but like a sort of majority because ACB's 50-50.
	But like, like, I don't love like, oh, we'll just, you know, oh, we're going to get a C in there.
	We're going to get a conservative judge and they're going to rule the way we want.
	I just want people who are going to be good Supreme Court justices and enforce the Constitution.
	But now we got like, well, Kenjati Brown, this broad is never going to vote.
	You know what I mean?
	Like she's there to vote the way the left wants forever.
	She's been good.
	I forget what issue she was good on.
	I want to say civil rights, but when it goes one way, Katanji Brown Jackson, KBJ, not KJB or KGB.
	Yeah, no, well, so there was that good ruling.
	But yeah, it's amazing between her and Sotomayor.
	They don't get facts, right?
	When the legalese is too complicated, they just say, all right, well, we just want to establish a precedent that no one's above the law.
	And so the lower courts can enjoin the president from carrying out executive duties.
	And they send it back.
	We'll see.
	They say, you know, prima fasci, executives got a good argument that they're going to succeed on the merits of the executive order.
	And, you know, Robert Barnes and John Eastman actually had this discussion on my channel at one point.
	And I had heard Barnes' argument for why it would likely be struck down as unconstitutional because it would because of the wording of the Constitution.
	John Eastman put out an argument that actually ultimately convinced me that it was never intended to apply to occupying forces, obviously, to diplomats, obviously, and to invading armies, obviously.
	And to people who are not here with any intent to be permanent residents such that, you know, it was never intended.
	Are you talking about the whatever act that Trump imposed?
	Yeah, the birthright citizenship, which was the executive order that this, that, you know, the lower courts enjoined nationwide injunctions.
	And it was like, you know, what's it called?
	The tourism.
	Birth tourism didn't exist at the time, but it was never intended to apply to birth tourism.
	Wasn't birthright citizenship meant for slaves?
	I read that.
	I thought I read that somewhere.
	Is that not right?
	Refresh my memory.
	I thought I read somewhere that when that when birthright citizenship was a thing, it was supposedly for freed slaves.
	I could be totally wrong on that.
	No, I think you're right.
	Was birthright citizenship intended to apply to the end of slavery?
	Let me just, let me, there was an argument there.
	It was established by the 14th Amendment, primarily intended to secure citizenship for former slaves and their descendants after the Civil War.
	Look at Viva.
	Look at me go.
	See, look at me.
	I'm so nervous about making a mistake, and then someone's going to say, Viva, the Canadian former lawyer, knows nothing.
	And he opens it.
	So all persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.
	And it's that particular provision that is specifically carved out, as far as I'm concerned, As far as I remember, natives or aboriginals who are not subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States wherein they reside.
	Its main purpose was to overturn Dred Scott versus Stanford, which denied citizenship to African Americans and to ensure that freed slaves and their children were recognized as U.S. citizens.
	I mean, that historical element to it does explain why Trump and John Eastman's very, very good legal advice makes a whole hell of a lot of sense.
	Chinese foreigners, and I'm not trying to be mean, but it's an industry.
	Eight and a half months pregnant Chinese women come into America to have babies.
	So the babies are then American citizens.
	And that was never intended to be covered.
	Mexicans are crossing the border eight and a half months pregnant too.
	I mean, it's like this was not a thing.
	Anchor babies are, no, obviously it's not anywhere near as big of a problem as having a wide open border.
	But now that you have the border kind of locked down, now my question is, this does will not apply retroactively, right?
	That I would, I don't know.
	I don't think, no, I don't, I don't think like they're not going to get deported now after they've already got their citizenship.
	No, there's, there's legal, you can't, this would be, this would have constitutional implications that could not be retroactively annulled.
	So I would, no, it would be going forward.
	No, it's, it's a, the funny thing is, I remember going on a cruise with my wife when she was five months pregnant, and they were asking questions.
	Like, none of this was even on the tip of my mind.
	I thought it was only security.
	Nobody wants a woman giving birth to a baby on a cruise ship.
	But no, it's, it's a, it's a big, oh, Jeremy, speaking of Netflix documentaries, I just watched one.
	It was called Trainwreck Poop Ship yesterday.
	I don't know if you've ever heard about this.
	I know the story, but I did not see that.
	I totally forgot the story.
	For everybody, if you ever thought you would want to go on a cruise ship, this was a cruise ship.
	Power went out, something happened, and they were eight days drifting at sea and the shit from the toilets was rising up and all over the floor.
	It was a disaster.
	They got 500 bucks each and a free, a free future cruise and a free ticket because of the, whatever they call it on the back of the ticket.
	There was another one.
	Yeah, whatever, the disclaimer or whatever, like there was another one where they had to like, was that the same cruise?
	This is why I don't go on cruises.
	There was a Disney cruise, I think, that had something bad happen.
	And then there was another where they had to like chopper in supplies because they were like out of food and shit.
	And it was just floating.
	I see.
	And I'm like.
	The one that I, that traumatized me, I wasn't on it.
	I've been on a cruise twice, I think.
	I kind of liked them, but I could never go on one now because of the disgusting, the jacuzzi pools, piss holes.
	No joke, no one intended.
	And it was a, it was an outbreak of like vomit on on a, on a cruise ship.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	I remember that story.
	Outbreak.
	Yeah.
	Vomit.
	It was so many, people, everyone got sick or something.
	Everyone got sick.
	And it was 7.5% of crew.
	Oh, no.
	This was a massive outbreak.
	Norovirus, I think, is the most.
	Yeah, that, yeah, yeah.
	That's it for me.
	And the idea that they can get boarded by pirates or, you know, whatever.
	But how do we get on the show?
	I had a friend, Viva.
	You'll appreciate the thriftiness here.
	There's a Houston, because he lived in Houston, and I guess a lot of cruise ships would leave from there, apparently, in the Gulf of America.
	They would just, there's a whole, like, there's a whole culture of people that just wait to the last minute.
	And if they live locally, because you can get like, if you get on these cruises for like 50 bucks and you go on a cruise because it's like, it's just like an airplane.
	Like, we're going anyway.
	So like, maybe you'll buy liquor or you'll gamble or you'll buy whatever.
	And that's, they would just wait, wait, wait.
	Some weekends they would go.
	Some weekends they wouldn't go.
	And they would just always try to seek out like, you know, these free or, you know, offense.
	I don't know how much cruises cost, but I remember him saying like, they have like 30, 40, 50 bucks instead of a thousand bucks or something like that.
	I'm known for, there's always a poop mention during the show.
	So that was the poop mention Finboy Slick.
	This team is now complained with our stringent quality standards.
	For those who ever take a cruise ship, if you try to bring on alcohol, there's a trick that they have to let you to find out if you're bringing alcohol versus water.
	They shake the container.
	And if it makes fine little bubbles, it's alcohol.
	And if it makes big bubbles, it's water.
	So you want to fill it right up to the brim.
	They can't shake.
	They can't get any, what's the word when, so they can't get any emulsification to determine that.
	That is a good money-saving tip, unless you get the all-inclusive, that's all-inclusive.
	That's where they screw you.
	They screw you on the alcohol.
	I'll tell you a funny story about rip-offs while we're on that.
	So I was staying for the first time.
	I have only taken one vacation in 10 years.
	So I took my wife to the four seasons.
	Admittedly, I don't care if people want to get butthurt.
	I know it's expensive.
	If you know how expensive it is, figure out how much a 10-day stay in Hawaii four seasons will cost you.
	Okay.
	So I've spent a lot of money on this vacation.
	When I got there, the drinks, I figured, oh my God, I'd pay a fortune to be here.
	Like the drinks have to be, nope.
	It was still $20 a drink.
	And then for a double, normally where I live, you know, if a single is $6.50, a double is like eight.
	You know, like it's not, nope, just double the price.
	Just double the price.
	So they were getting me for $40 a drink.
	I had two drinks, saw the tab, immediately called a new.
	We went to Target and I bought all my own liquor.
	Well, that's what you have to do.
	That's what you have to do, unless they've got you isolated where you have no access to outside resources.
	And then they can charge you whatever they want.
	It's basically like the island of Hawaii as a whole, where I went with my wife for our honeymoon, or like Vegas, where if you want to go to a pharmacy, you have to go out of the hotel, walk a mile down the strip and dodge hookers and drug addicts.
	Well, and then they'll price fix too.
	Like they're all in on it.
	So they know what the casinos are charging.
	So you're not going to go to like a Walgreens there and get a regular price.
	We drove like 45 minutes ago to a Target and I bought like bottles of Tito's 175s for like, it was like maybe 15% more expensive than America.
	It wasn't anywhere near what I expected.
	I thought it was going to be, I was like, everything's so crazy expensive.
	At least the liquor really wasn't.
	I just came back and I had like, I had a box full of wine for my wife and like all these handles of Tito's.
	Like people, people in the waiting room were like, they could tell, like, Ketos.
	You could be the local distributor and save them.
	Yeah.
	Jeremy, I was talking with Encryptus earlier before we got started, actually.
	Not to get into it, you made an announcement earlier this week, last week about content reorientation.
	Encryptus was explaining the issue that you were having on YouTube.
	Do you mind talking about it?
	No, no problem.
	Well, there's a couple things.
	This actually segues in.
	I've got a heart out in about 10, 15.
	Okay.
	Two things I want to talk about.
	And Viva, thanks for having me on, man.
	It's been a while.
	We've been talking about the give Sam Go coming on to talk about that for a while.
	Kept on getting pushed off.
	Well, I'm coming down to Florida to do some stuff in the Rumble studio in fall.
	So we'll hook up.
	Absolutely.
	They're like, why don't you come down now?
	I'm like, dude, I don't know where you were, where you came from in Canada, but like Wisconsin early summer, you don't leave.
	This is like it.
	You know, it's like fat guy weather, 75 to 85 and breezy every day.
	I'm like, I'm not going to Florida.
	Now it's 100 degrees down there.
	Like I'll come down there, you know, in late fall, early winter.
	But two things.
	Yeah.
	So I did reorient my content because I had a couple of reasons.
	One, I'm a big analytics guy.
	And I told a story about how, you know, I grew up in like psychographic, demographic marketing.
	That's what I'm really good at.
	That's where I made my money.
	I made all my money being very, very good at marketing way before YouTube.
	And I've been watching my analytics and I was putting too many ads in my videos.
	I was reducing watch time.
	So then it got so bad to where then YouTube wasn't even recommending my videos anymore to people who were watching them because that.
	Yeah.
	So that's interesting because like, like, I'm sorry, I'll let you finish.
	I'll pause.
	Go ahead, hit it.
	I noticed like, like, I don't care.
	And it's not for, and maybe that's part of the problem.
	Yeah, I get 650,000 subs on YouTube.
	They're not recommending the videos that I post there to my subs.
	And like 10% of them would be a good day.
	Yeah.
	And let alone to other people.
	And I don't chase algorithms, period.
	I don't, and maybe it's because I don't focus on YouTube whatsoever anymore.
	And it's a blessing.
	It's a little frustrating, but like, I don't care.
	But like, what do you have to do to get YouTube to recommend your own stuff to your own subs?
	Well, I think part of it is re-educating them that like no longer now does a simple subscribe mean that they're going to get notification.
	Subscribing used to mean that.
	Used to mean that you get notification.
	But now you have to subscribe and then there's an extra step where you click on that and you have to click send notifications.
	So part of that is re-educating your viewers that, hey, if you want to be notified, make sure you do this.
	And then the hope is that if you do it enough, eventually some of the stragglers who aren't hardcore viewers will get it in their head that that's what they need to do.
	The other really important metric on YouTube is click-through rate.
	So watch time is number two.
	Click-through rate is number one.
	What's good click-through rate?
	Would you say what's a good one?
	Yeah, what's a good one?
	And it's CTR for those who are trying to.
	Yeah, I mean, it depends because it varies based on the topic, right?
	So let's say on average, like if you do a political video and you have like a 15 to 20% click-through rate, that's very, very, very, very good.
	My average click-through rate is like 9 to 10%.
	Generally, here's how it works.
	There's a multiplier, okay?
	I don't, if you're watching, I'll try not to get too much in the wheats.
	If you have a video, if you put out a video with an interesting thumbnail and an interesting title, I've actually changed my, I fixed my entire YouTube channel.
	My views are back to as good as ever now.
	What I did was I changed my thumbnails to the newer style and I changed my titling.
	And if you have a good click-through rate, it will actually recommend your video to more of your subscribers.
	If you have a bad one, it will recommend it to less.
	So in both scenarios, it actually, a good video has like a multiple, there's a multiplier.
	So like a good video, a banger will bang.
	And one that's a flop is going to super flop.
	And once you have like a high enough, the reason YouTube cares about click-through rate is there's limited real estate, right?
	And if they display your thumbnail, your video in that limited real estate, let's say you're talking about if it's a Viva video, it's probably about poop.
	So you made a video about poop and somebody searches that term.
	It only shows you like four or five videos, you know?
	And if your video has a low click-through rate, that tells YouTube, hey, we have a, you know, let's say it's 8% and the video they show first is 20%.
	It's YouTube sees that as we have an 8% chance of making money on this or we have a 20% chance of making money on this, right?
	Because then they can show that ad if people click through.
	So the higher your click-through rate, the more chance it's a multiplier.
	So there's a better chance your video will be seen.
	The longer people watch is also a multiplier because that tells YouTube, hey, we can display, we can do a mid-roll ad.
	If your average viewer dips out of your video before a mid-roll, you know, so the better your click-through rate is, not only will you get more views because more people are seeing and clicking through, but YouTube will actually push it out to more people because they say, hey, this is more interesting.
	So I started doing, I hired a researcher and she's an actual journalist.
	I started doing some like longer form videos that are like 20, 30 minutes long.
	And I've done three of them so far, one on India, one on the YouTuber who killed herself.
	She was getting like harassed by all these trunes.
	And then I have one coming out that's a really deep dive, almost 40 minutes long on Carmarlo Anthony.
	And so I've been testing this stuff.
	Like the long form will give you more watch time.
	More watch time when combined with a hot topic on and a high click-through rate is how you go viral, is how you actually do it.
	So I've become more hyper-focused on the analytics.
	And if people, in my experience, people, people have, when stuff starts going bad, they double down on what they've always been doing.
	This is probably true in life, too.
	You know, because I see people psychologically, and I was thinking about this in a totally different circumstance.
	If you admit that you've been doing it wrong, you can't change the past.
	And so the tendency is to say, well, I don't want to admit that I've been doing that I've made a mistake in the past.
	And so keep doing what I'm doing and I will not admit making a mistake that I can't change.
	The example that I always use, and I'm sorry if he's going to catch it right here, but I actually don't, astray, but I don't really care, is Boogie2988.
	This is a guy that I don't know how many he has now, but at one point he had what, three, four, five million subscribers.
	And he would always put out these videos, you know, ah, you know, YouTube's not showing my viewers.
	YouTube's not showing my viewer videos to blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	You know, I have 3 million viewers and I can't break this.
	I would tell him the same thing I just told you.
	Like, this shit matters.
	Like, you have to like your audience.
	Like, for me, I realized my audience didn't care about Marvel anymore.
	I got big covering video games.
	Now, if they put out a video game, it tanks.
	So if I keep pumping out video games, what happens?
	Video game videos.
	Low click-through rate, less subscribers, less viewers.
	And then it becomes this landslide of failure.
	So I would tell him, you're okay, the Francis videos aren't working anymore, dude.
	He's like, yeah, but YouTube doesn't like them.
	I said, yeah, but you have 3 million subscribers.
	Figure out something that 100,000 of them like.
	Instead of worrying about the people that used to like your viral shirt off, big fat guy thing.
	Like, so you have to always kind of be, you know, changing.
	Here's a better, here's a better example.
	Like you survived, like you can mark your channel as I survived the Amber Heard Bonanza, right?
	There are hundreds of channels that did not because you didn't over commit.
	There are a lot of channels, I won't name them, but I think we know there are a lot of channels who were ball steep on Amber Heard, made a lot of money for like three months, and now their channels are dead because they were like, they overcommitted.
	So it's good to always be aware that maybe I, you know, I want to make sure I'm always offering variety.
	I want to stay plugged into the videos.
	Like if a video is bad, it's not your viewer's fault.
	It's not YouTube's fault.
	There's some reason they're not clicking through and they're not interested in it.
	And so you mentioned the new, sorry, two things.
	The only reason I care about this, I don't, you know, I don't, it's, they call it chasing the algorithm and I hate it and don't do it.
	And luckily don't have to because, you know, with what we've got on Rumble and we've got our locals community.
	And so that, that revenue is not the guiding factor, but it's, it's, it's, it is the way the system works.
	And I only use YouTube so I can promote Rumble and locals and my kids' book, Louis the Lobster, Returns to the Sea on Amazon.
	Where can people get that?
	Oh, Amazon?
	On Amazon, self-published.
	And the illustrator is the daughter of a member of our locals community.
	Check it out.
	But the question was this.
	What is the new thumbnail style?
	I'm looking at your channel now.
	And you say it.
	I've had people tell me this before.
	This is what you're going with now?
	So if you scroll down, okay.
	So go to the videos tab.
	We can see more videos on.
	The videos.
	Right there.
	Yep.
	So instead of now I have like a more declarative statement.
	If you keep going down, here's the change I made.
	Keep going down.
	You'll see the change.
	Very often my old thumbnails, I told people too much information in them.
	And like, if you scroll down even more, some of them are like much longer.
	And that, and that, and like basically everything that was in the video was in the, in either the title or the thumbnail.
	So there was no reason for anyone to click on the video.
	And if you look at like now the video titles are a little bit more vague.
	I was never trying to tell a story with the thumbnail, but now I try to.
	Like now I try to say, you know, like you'll see a lot of video, like I, I, the way I told my editor now is like, assume they already know what the video is about.
	Let's get them to like be interested in what I have to say.
	So like, for example, if I'm making a video, like everybody knows what's going on with Carmelo Anthony now.
	If I, if instead of putting like, you know, Carmelo Anthony called back into court, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, which I used to put on the thumb, now I'll just put like, he's cooked or something like that's a little more attentive, like a little more like, oh, I wonder why.
	You're not, you're not only, you're not only, and I'm not saying this in a demeaning way, you're not only playing to the algorithm, you're playing to the kids speak.
	My kids have been saying, I'm cooked.
	Like, I don't know when cooked became the word generation.
	Yeah, I'm not sure either, but like, yeah.
	And then there's, yeah, I got a new one the kids are saying there.
	You're having, he's having a menti B. That's a menti.
	Yeah.
	I'll see you new.
	Yeah.
	Well, I do have, I do have three kids who are, one might be watching too much TikTok, but so yeah, so I looked at that.
	It helped my click-through rate.
	Also, I made a commitment to only doing one, a maximum of one ad a day, which helped my view time.
	And then the next thing I'm starting next week is chapters.
	So adding chapters, I never did because I was like, I don't want people to skip around in my video.
	It's going to hurt my view time.
	I was wrong because I A-B tested.
	Like one day I'll give you the, how I, you know, my marketing background because I'm pretty proud of it.
	And like I got very, very good at A-B testing, multivariate testing, things like that, like where people should be facing in pictures, what kind of race mix should people in the family, what all to the color of people's hair and ads, what converts better, all that kind of stuff.
	I would test like a thousand variables at once on a single webpage.
	Anyway, what I also, so I A-B tested the chapters.
	I used to think, well, if I put chapters in, people are just going to skip around.
	And I don't want that.
	I want them to watch a whole video.
	But the reality turned out, if you put chapters in, The people that are just going to play the whole video are just going to play the whole video.
	And the people that are going to get annoyed because you're not getting to what they care about are just going to leave the video.
	So if you put a chapter in, at least they stay and they jump to the part that they want to the piece of information that they're interested in.
	And so instead of getting a watch time of like one minute, sure, you might only get three minutes, but the average of that, you know, when you look at the total watch time of your video, helps increase the total watch time.
	You know, maybe from like, let's say I put a video of 12 minutes or 13 minutes, my average watch time on that video is only going to be six minutes.
	So there's a bunch of people that come in, come out, skip around or whatever.
	If you can increase that to seven minutes by putting chapters, maybe that gets over the threshold of where YouTube says, hey, we're going to promote this to more people.
	I don't know.
	That's what I'm testing next week.
	Okay.
	But yeah, that was before you go.
	And by the way, here, Louis the Lobster people, I'm going to give you the link in a second because I'm terrible at Carmelo Anthony.
	So the big deal is he's been indicted, charged with first-degree murder, tried as an adult.
	Has there been any other developments?
	Because I'm predicting that the cops have a lot of footage that is going to, at this point, I'm predicting it's going to illustrate or evidence potentially a racial or political motive to it.
	But that, as of now, has not come out.
	It's the only way I can explain how they have not revealed anything of what they had on the cell phones that they got from all the other spectators.
	Yeah.
	In current year, there's guaranteed going to be at least 20, 30 good angles of that.
	And if there was anything that dispelled the potential rumor that it was not race related and that it was self-defense, I think something would have been revealed by now.
	But that's my own.
	That's my big.
	Yeah, I 100% agree with that.
	If there was any shred of self-defense, we would have already seen the video.
	And we can also get the language of the indictment where they really leave.
	Now, I'm sure those people saw the videos on the grand jury, maybe.
	It's pretty clear.
	They're like, no, no, he killed him with a knife.
	He's dead.
	Like it was not, there's no, it was a cleat sharpener.
	There's no, it was a scuffle.
	There's, you know, they didn't reduce the charges.
	He's been called.
	He says first appearance on July 18th now.
	I think that's going to be an interesting day.
	There's two big things.
	One, one, one interesting kind of thing this week, and you can dispel this.
	I'm sure you'll know.
	He had filed for indigency.
	Indigency?
	Is that the right word?
	Basically, it's when you tell the court, I don't have enough money to pay for a lawyer.
	Give me a public defender.
	And people thought that that was weird because he had raised $500,000 more than that.
	And what's interesting is they filed that indigent package after they raised the Give Send Go goal from $500,000 to $1.4 million.
	I thought that that was odd.
	Now, his defenders are saying that's standard procedure so that he can keep it as an option, but I don't know that that's the case.
	So there's a lot of question that like, you know, why are you telling us you're broke?
	We know you have 500 grand.
	Yeah, it's 540,000 now.
	Yeah.
	That's interesting.
	I mean, that is.
	And by the way, presumably for a cut and dry violence act, that's more than enough money it's going to take to cover him, his case.
	I can't see him spending a million dollars on his defense.
	This isn't the Simpson case.
	I do think it's funny.
	This is an old marketing trick.
	You notice how they didn't raise the gold to 1.4 million?
	It was 1.36.
	What did they?
	Yeah.
	What was it at?
	1.36 and change.
	3.6.
	1.396.
	1,396,725.
	Do you know why they do that?
	So that it doesn't seem as obscene as 1.4?
	No.
	Well, partly.
	It's an old marketing trick.
	If you put like a specific number.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	An oddly specific number.
	More people will donate and more people will think you really thought about how much money you needed.
	And so you need exactly $1.396 million and $750.23.
	You know, now you remind me, I think Scott Adams said something like, whenever he makes a prediction, he doesn't say like 60, 70, 80, say like 87.5%.
	And then it was like, oh, he really thought this through.
	And it's not just exactly.
	Yeah, it's marketing.
	Yeah.
	So there's, yeah.
	So there's some interesting, you know, like back when I did info marketing, we would sell, we would A-B test the price of information products.
	So most of our clients sold information products and meaning like how to sell your own alpaca farm or how to, you know, whatever, whatever.
	So we would like A-B test 47, 57, 97 with the same sales letter.
	And almost every time it was never the cheapest price that converted at a higher rate.
	Like there's a weird psychology to the $99, $97 even instead of $99.99.
	Because for whatever reason, people think 94 instead of 96.
	Because people think 100 at 96, but at 94, they think 90.
	So it's all like, it's a fun, it's a fun world.
	But yeah, so the latest is that there's also some question on whether or not his bail, the terms of his bail are exceedingly loose.
	There is some question on whether or not there was a family vacation to Louisiana.
	And we don't know if they actually did do that.
	Something like that would have to be approved by the judge from how I understand it, but there is no such approval on the records.
	It's even when Adam Johnson, Lectern guy, was under his terms.
	I mean, he couldn't leave Central Florida.
	And this was for Jan 6 nonsense, alleged theft.
	It was never theft.
	Interesting.
	So it's going to be, I mean, I agree with you.
	If there was any kind of compelling evidence that this was, here's my prediction.
	They had a prior beef.
	That's my prediction.
	I've been in high school fights.
	These are how they go.
	You know, high schoolers falsely believe.
	I don't know if you remember if you ever scrapped when you're in high school, but like there's always this, like, there's two things that every high schooler believes that are not true.
	I will share this wisdom with you, Viva, co-sign it if I'm right, or correct me if I'm wrong.
	I know for a fact I used to say this stuff all the time.
	You have to tell me if you're a cop.
	They don't.
	If they're selling you drugs, they do not have to tell you if they're if they're.
	Wasn't that from it was from 21 or 22 Jumpstreet.
	I forget which one it was in, but it was in one of those movies.
	Like, that's not true, by the way.
	They don't have to.
	Right.
	That was always a meme.
	And like, just ask me if they're a cop.
	Like, I definitely didn't smoke pot a lot in high school.
	Like, you have to, you have to tell me if you're a cop.
	No, they don't.
	And a lot of my friends got arrested thinking that.
	Number two, they're always used to anytime there was a fight, it was always like, go ahead, hit me, hit me.
	Because there was this belief that if you, you know, if the other guy hit you first, somehow you were going to be able to walk away scot-free if you pounded them into a fine dust.
	That's also not how it works.
	That was, that was, and not naming anybody.
	Everybody, you know, has their interpretations.
	That was what I found totally specious about the self-defense argument.
	It's like, right, statue.
	So yeah, there's the, even I appreciate everybody wanted to draw an analogy between Carmelo Anthony and Kyle Rittenhouse.
	There was never an analogy to be drawn.
	And the idea that it could somehow be valid self-defense, given the level of whatever threat Metcalf could have even thought of posing in the moment, I wouldn't be convinced by that, but he'll have his day in court.
	Based on what I'll wrap up with this, and thanks for having me on.
	Thank you for coming.
	Based on what they've said, basically that there was some sort of back and forth, touch me, see what happens.
	Then it was punch me, see what happens.
	In my opinion, it's at least likely that Carmelo Anthony intended to escalate that situation to such a point where he could use that knife and he felt like he would be justified in it.
	And I think in the trial, we're going to find out that there may have been some prior beef.
	I mean, you bring a kitchen knife to the school, you have it in your backpack.
	This isn't like he had a pocket knife.
	Like he brought it.
	Was it a kitchen knife versus like a switchblade?
	It was like a straight blade is all I know.
	So I don't know.
	I would think like a Leatherman isn't big enough to stab someone in the heart.
	Maybe it is.
	Two and a half inches, I think, is what is basically required.
	And in Canada, you can't have a blade that's longer than two and a half inches in a public setting.
	I think I'll double check myself on that.
	But yeah, he definitely had it to use it.
	It wasn't for camping.
	Yeah, he wasn't there.
	He didn't have cooking class.
	You know, they released, I saw the documents, like it is well documented that a student should never be in another school's tent in any scenario.
	Like those kids knew that.
	I think he was there to ask why, whatever, maybe he didn't, it wasn't premeditated.
	That would take a lot of evidence, obviously.
	But I think he, that's what they both said.
	He said, touch me, see what happened.
	Hit me, see what happened.
	And then he put his hand on the knife.
	This is according to them.
	And then, and then there's some, you know, at any point, at no point there could was Austin Mecca or Carmel Anthony being held against his will.
	He could have left at any point.
	He was where he shouldn't have been.
	And then they say, stand your ground as of the defense.
	But yeah, it's the arguments for the self-defense in this case, based on what we knew at the time, were very theoretical and not substantiated by evidence.
	And it doesn't seem like they're being more substantiated as more evidence comes out, but there'll be a trial.
	I just can't.
	A trial in 2026.
	And he's out free until then.
	Yeah, which means he'd be out a full year almost.
	There is some possibility.
	There's some precedent, you know, where they might change the bail, but now that he's been indicted, but I don't think they will.
	I don't know if he's really a flight risk.
	He's just a kid.
	It seems ridiculous that he's sitting out.
	He's out free for a full year now.
	Yeah, well, not to compare it to the injustice of the Jan 6s because you don't fight injustice with injustice.
	But he's not a flight risk.
	Take away his passport, stick an ankle monitor on him, and he'll show up for his day in court.
	And that's it.
	That's the way it's going to work.
	Everyone should give Viva a bunch of rumble rants that he can use to buy bait to go fishing this weekend.
	Someone asked yesterday the most effective way.
	Come on over to Vivaborn's Law.locals.com.
	I'm going to cover a few more stories, Jeremy, afterwards.
	But first of all, thank you for plugging me.
	I'm a buffoon to plug myself.
	You need to come up here to Wisconsin and do some big mouth bass fishing.
	Dude, Wisconsin's good.
	I've got a family member up there, and I'm told the fishing's good.
	And northern, walleye, big mouth bass.
	You got Muskie up there as well.
	Muskie up north.
	Yep.
	There's Muskie.
	That's a whole different, you know, a whole different setup for that.
	The fish of 10,000 casts because it's very.
	That's about right.
	Yeah.
	I've never even gotten close, but I know it's a whole different rig.
	And it would be cool to catch one once.
	Dude, we'll do it.
	We'll make a trip out of it.
	Jeremy, thank you for having me.
	Anytime, come back and we'll talk.
	Yeah, you guys can always check me out live.
	I'm on before Viva.
	So two Easter Monday through Thursdays.
	On Rumble.
	That is our.
	Yep.
	And you typically Jeremy, thank you very much.
	I'll put your links up there.
	All right.
	We'll see you, bud.
	Have a weekend.
	You too.
	Now I'm going to kick him.
	I feel bad doing that.
	Kicking Jeremy out of the stream.
	We're going to cover a couple of stories.

	God bless everyone.
	Thank you very much, Snooty Mims.
	And then Roostang in our VivaBarnesLaw.locals.com community.
	We're going to talk about this one over on locals.
	President Trump has had enough of Canada's BS.
	President Trump said the United States is immediately terminating all discussions with trade with Canada.
	Trump said this on a truth.
	We'll get there.
	On a truth's special multiple post, he made the decision in response to Ottawa imposing a digital services tax on U.S. tech firms.
	We will let Canada know.
	We will let Canada know the tariff they will be paying to do business with the United States of America with the next seven-day period, Trump added.
	We're going to look at that.
	Then we got Finboy Slick.
	Shut up, Jeremy.
	Viva is just looking for an excuse to switch to pimple popping content and you're encouraging him.
	I could do that.
	Oh, my goodness.
	That's where AI, though, is taking over.
	These AI-satisfying ASMR videos, they're better than the real thing.
	What are the panel's views on the recent passing of the Save a Fox founder?
	And what steps could be taken moving forward?
	What is that power cleric?
	Someone DN'd me and I didn't get on that.
	Sorry about that.
	I'll actually get to that in a bit.
	As the courting's wife is a pilot, would he recommend that Viva and their child attend EAA Air Venture, Oshkosh 2025?
	Would camping on site be a good option for them?
	EAA?
	Is that hot air balloon?
	That sounds like hot air balloon.
	And Viva mentioned poop.
	Okay, good.
	What was the next story?
	The last story before we go over to Viva BarnesLaw.locals.com.
	I had a lot of stuff on the backdrop.
	Yes, that's what it was.
	So we can start and clip it from right here.
	Gavin Newsom is suing Fox News for, speaking of random, arbitrary numbers that are neither random nor arbitrary, $787 million.
	My goodness, do I just loathe Gavin Newsome?
	Look at this.
	You'd think it was parody, but it's not.
	Gavin Newsome tweeting out earlier today, no more lies.
	I'm suing Fox News for $787 million.
	And then you got the link in.
	I'll bring up the article.
	Why $787 million?
	Well, if you've been paying attention and been on the channel for a while, you would know that's the exact amount that Fox agreed to pay Dominion to settle Dominion lawfare.
	Sorry, I mean lawfare.
	I mean defamation lawsuit.
	I meant lawfare against Fox News.
	Dominion sued for $1.2, $1.4 billion in damages because of the allegedly false and defamatory statements that Fox News made via Tucker Carlson and others about Dominion being involved in election fornification, chicanery, et cetera, et cetera.
	And for reasons unknown that I am highly suspicious of, though I have no evidence to substantiate the claim other than good logic and not good logic, Joe Nearman, just good thought process, to settle a case for 70% of the amount claimed before you get to trial when that amount is nearly a billion dollars does not make any sense.
	Period.
	The best case scenario, 1.2 billion if they get full amount on verdict, to settle for 787 million, to me, it was either some form of money laundering, some form of political finance laundering, so that Fox News, who's not particularly pro-Trump, siphons off that money to Dominion, who does whatever the hell, I don't know.
	I don't know.
	Or it was a pretext to get rid of Tucker Carlson to try to quell and quash the populist voice.
	I don't know, but there's something seriously suspicious.
	Set all that aside.
	Gavin Newsom sues Fox News for $787 million in defamation case over Trump call.
	The amount is nearly identical to Dominion voting's 2023 settlement.
	Okay, five year.
	Gavin Newsom is taking a page right out of Donald Trump's media playbook.
	No, he isn't political because even Trump is not that petty.
	And also, Trump kind of Trump is right.
	Gavin Newsom's a piece of crap.
	Okay, California governor accused Fox News of defamation in a lawsuit Friday morning, alleging the network should fork over $787 million.
	After Jesse Waters claimed Newsom lied about his phone calls with Trump, who ordered the National Guard to Los Angeles this month, Newsom's lawyers argue Waters' program misleadingly edited a video of Trump supporting the claim.
	The Democratic, likely presidential hopeful.
	The Democratic, likely presidential hopeful.
	What do you mean?
	Likely and hopeful seem redundant.
	Okay, his request for damages is nearly identical to the amount they paid for Dominion.
	Okay, if Fox News wants to lie to the American people on Donald Trump's behalf, it should face consequences, just like it did in the Dominion case.
	Newsom told Politico in a statement, until Fox is willing to be truthful, I will keep fighting against their propaganda machine.
	Fox News in a statement said Governor Newsom's transparent publicity stunt is frivolous and designed to chill free speech critical of him.
	We will defend this case vigorously.
	You don't want to settle it?
	Settle it for $500 million, you idiots.
	Public officials must clear an extremely high.
	We know that.
	Forget that.
	Newsom's suit echoes Donald Trump's suit.
	Yada, yada, yada.
	Okay.
	Trump, I don't care about this.
	A copy of Newsom's complaint to the Delaware Superior Court in the same state where Fox is incorporated claims he last spoke with Trump for approximately 16 minutes by phone on June 7, one day before the president deployed 2,000 National Guard troop over Newsom's objections.
	Okay.
	Trump, however, told reporters on June 10 he had spoken with Newsom, quote, a day ago, end quote, implying a conversation took place the same day the 700 U.S. Marines were deployed.
	Newsom refuted Trump's claim in a post on X minutes later.
	That evening, Waters played a clip of Trump's remarks on air base, on air, before asking, why would Newsom lie and claim Trump never called him?
	He saw what said as he showed a screenshot of the predator's call obtained by Fox News showing that Trump's last call with him was on June 7, as the governor had claimed.
	Newsom's lawyers argue the incident meets the legal sentence.
	Now, let me just see here.
	Bring this up here.
	Forget it.
	That's just an article.
	So, the basis of the defamation is that Fox News via Jesse Waters, who's now the most popular person to watch on that channel, from what I understand, said that Gavin Newsom lied about having spoken with Trump.
	Take a clip of video of Trump sort of seemingly supporting that if you, what is it called, cheap fake it or cut it or edit it creatively.
	And that Gavin Newsom actually did speak with Donald Trump hours before he deployed the National Guard.
	Okay.
	Gavin Newsom says, you want to tell lies?
	I'm going to sue you for $787 million.
	I hope he keeps receipts.
	I keep receipts.
	And I have no love loss for Fox News.
	They're idiots.
	I believe they are too propagandists, just from a different perspective.
	And it doesn't mean they're totally useless.
	Doesn't mean that you should disregard everything they have to say, but you should view it with that sunglasses on.
	May they both live by the precedent they set.
	Gavin Newsom, you repeated the very fine people defamatory lies.
	Should Trump sue you for $87 million?
	This is Gavin Newsom's tweet.
	I have archived it.
	I have screenshotted it, and it's still up online.
	Recap coming from Gavin Newsom.
	Nazis, very fine people.
	Racist sheriff, unfairly treated.
	Black athletes exercising First Amendment rights.
	Sons of bitches and uninvited to the White House.
	I not sure about the racist sheriff.
	I suspect it's a lie because two of the three are.
	But if Gavin Newsom wants to lie, that is a two-way street, a double-edged sword.
	Cuts both ways.
	Go sue Gavin Newsom.
	Not that Trump's going to do it because it's useless.
	And the fact that Gavin Newsom, the most incompetent governor in the history of California, thinks he's got a reputation in the first place, let alone one that is worth nearly a billion dollars over, I won't even call it a lie, an innocuous potential disagreement of fact, it shows you how bloated his ego is.
	And that's that.
	Okay, people, we're going to go, I want to make, I want to do one thing, go raid Roseanne Barr and tell her to come on for an interview.
	I hope she's not angry with me about our discussion that we had on she's got on it now.
	I don't know.
	It's not, I think it's pre-recorded.
	In fact, I know it's pre-recorded, but airing live.
	Here's, oh, sorry.
	Encryptus.
	I'll give you the link in the private chat.
	No, I'll give it to you.
	You can get it.
	I'll text it to you.
	Go raid Roseanne Barr.
	Be loud and proud about Viva Raid and ask her to come on for an interview.
	Tell her I'm a good guy and that I didn't mean to insult her, if I did, in fact, insult her with our exchange on why we could not voice our concerns about Trump's recent, what is it, a foray into the Middle East?
	I'm sure you all know about that Twitter exchange, but go rate her and let her know from whence you came.
	I would love to have an interview with Roseanne.
	I would love to do it in person.
	I've had questions that are personal in nature, not private, but like upbringing, everything that she went through in life and how she got to where she is right now.
	Okay, so what we're going to do, we are going to go over to VivaBarnesLaw.locals.com.
	I didn't miss any tip questions or humble rants.
	I'm good.
	Subscribe.
	Make sure that you have notifications turned on.
	Go get a Louis the Lobster.
	Oh, there's New Merch.
	There's New Merch.
	Be a Force Multiplier, people.
	I love it.
	And put it on not Viva Barnes Law, VivaFry, VivaFry.com.
	My wife, she's on there.
	It's a beautiful woman.
	This is us before we left from Canada.
	And look at it.
	If you turn it sideways, people, I stole the idea, but it says be a force multiplier.
	The greatest compliment I ever got.
	Use your powers for good and amplify goodness throughout the world.
	That's it.
	Now we're going to go over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com once I make sure that we have successfully raided Roseanne.
	Yay, from Viva to Roseanne.
	I love this timeline.
	Booyah.
	And let's just go see for two minutes.
	Sage Steel, by the way, I've met her in person.
	She's, I mean, you know, very nice.
	That's a big man today, but back then.
	Yeah.
	It's a big man.
	And he actually broke the color barrier and was the first black man to play varsity football.
	Do you know what's amazing about Sage Steel people?
	I don't just ask how old people are when we do live streams.
	Sage Steel.
	Let me see if it's public age.
	She's 52 years old.
	Okay.
	We don't need to compare her to other 52-year-olds who don't look as amazingly young as she does.
	52 years old is almost mine.
	When she told me that, I was like, that's not possible.
	Because A, it's one thing to look young on camera.
	I was face to face like, it's not possible.
	I thought you were 10 years younger than me, Sage.
	So go raid if you're not coming over to viva barneslaw.locals.com.
	If you are coming over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com, we're coming over right now.
	Do it.
	Come now.
	Otherwise, see you Sunday night with Robert and we're going to have one hell of an episode.
	Binger banger of an episode.
	Coming over now.
	Updating.
