0:40

>> No, he's a

0:41

>> pop artist. He drew comic books into

0:43

paintings in the 60s.

0:45

>> You've seen his stuff.

0:46

>> Oh, I'm sure. Yeah, I have now.

0:48

>> I've seen them in memes.

0:50

>> Exactly.

0:51

>> Like like a man backhanding a woman.

0:54

>> No,

0:54

>> no, that's not the meme.

0:56

>> No,

0:56

>> no,

1:00

1:01

>> Oh, it's a guy's hand. Cop, I think.

1:02

>> Feminine man.

1:03

>> Oh, Jeff. I love you, too. But okay. The

1:06

dots. I get it.

1:08

>> This was a lot of Yeah. What I wanted to

1:09

do, which I couldn't do, I wanted to do

1:12

an uncanny valley look.

1:14

>> And look like a mannequin with like

1:16

lifeless eyes and and like kind of like

1:18

Lex, right? But that was a lot of money.

1:21

>> Like CGI from 10 years ago.

1:24

>> Yes. Or like Yeah. So, I just went with

1:27

this.

1:27

>> Okay. I was on I was on

1:32

No, no, no, no. This is I I was on

1:35

Jordan's show last January 6th and I had

1:39

the QAnon shaman paint my face with his

1:42

look and I had a Russian fur hat and I

1:44

had the boots and everything and Jordan

1:46

Peterson had to sit and talk to me for

1:48

three hours looking like a complete

1:50

mental patient. And you you're going to

1:51

forget in a couple minutes, you know,

1:53

when someone's looking like this. But

1:54

for anyone tuning in, it's just like and

1:56

especially the clips go wide,

1:58

>> it it's a lot of fun.

1:59

>> Oh, I know. I've done dozens of podcasts

2:01

with Duncan where like clowns and

2:05

>> fries. Why are they dressed like

2:06

astronauts?

2:08

>> Yeah. I think the internet it's it's

2:10

going in a

2:12

>> Yeah. Wait, isn't it saying like the

2:15

face of evil? There's one that's Yeah.

2:17

The psychology of pure evil. Michael

2:19

Malice.

2:20

>> Uh, how is Jordan doing? Is he okay? I

2:23

think he's doing better. I just talked

2:25

to Michaela a couple of days ago. Um I

2:28

think he's out of the woods. I don't

2:29

know how much I'm allowed to say. Uh or

2:32

what's my

2:32

>> What happened to him?

2:33

>> I don't really know. Um I think you'd

2:36

have to talk to her. This is really

2:37

something I don't uh I don't know what

2:40

I'm supposed to

2:40

>> He just keeps going through this series

2:42

of ongoing health crisises.

2:44

>> Yeah. And it's very What's what bothers

2:47

me a lot is how much glee people seem to

2:50

have with this. And and I think uh it's

2:53

like I was just saying a second ago, I

2:54

think the internet's going in a dark

2:56

place. And

2:57

>> people people are going in a dark place.

2:59

The internet's leading them there, but

3:00

it's people.

3:01

>> Well, I think it's like a snake eating

3:02

its own tail. Don't you think? I think

3:03

and and when AI starts validating, you

3:06

know, your preconceptions. I'm I I am

3:08

very scared about the near future.

3:09

>> I'm very scared, too, because so many

3:11

people are so easily led and so prone to

3:14

whatever the ideology is at the moment,

3:17

just full full scale adopting it. I was

3:20

on Gutfeld a couple months ago and they

3:21

were talking about how Sam Alman said

3:23

chat GPT is going to have erotica now

3:25

and everyone's like well what's erotica

3:27

they're making jokes and I go listen I

3:29

said not that long ago um John Hinckley

3:33

shot in 1981 he shot President Reagan

3:36

because he thought Jodie Foster was

3:37

going to fall in love with him you know

3:39

thereby turning her away from men

3:40

forever right and I said what happens

3:42

when Chad GPT you really hate Trump but

3:46

you really hate Joe Rogan or you really

3:48

hate Fouchy or Kla Harris and your AI

3:51

friend is jinninging you up being like,

3:53

"Yeah, they're terrible. Do

3:55

>> like there's 350 million people. You're

3:57

saying out of those 350 aren't going to

3:59

try to do something,

4:00

>> right? I mean, they've already had Chad

4:02

GPT talk people into killing

4:03

themselves."

4:05

>> I know. I know. And that's

4:06

>> whether it's Chad GPT or whatever AI

4:09

language model.

4:11

>> Yeah, I am. And I don't see any breaks

4:14

on this and it's happening I think

4:16

faster than we can. You know, the whole

4:18

point of the paleo diet, not the whole

4:20

point, but a large part of the paleo

4:21

lifestyle is, you know, our biology has

4:24

not kept up with our technology, right?

4:26

And that kind of makes sense in a food

4:27

thing. Push comes to shove, processed

4:29

food, you should avoid whole food,

4:31

natural food is probably better for you.

4:33

That's just a good uristic for anyone.

4:35

But when you're talking about the mind,

4:38

you know, I people argue are human

4:40

beings basically good, human beings

4:42

basically bad. And I think human beings

4:44

are basically animals and animals can be

4:46

enormously collaborative and wonderful

4:48

and work together even across species.

4:50

You see these videos of like a you know

4:51

a dog saving a cow or whatever it is.

4:54

>> But animals are also I don't need to

4:56

tell you you know there's that chimp in

4:58

all of us.

4:59

>> Yeah.

4:59

>> And when that mob starts fmenting like

5:03

people want blood and and they love it.

5:05

>> Yeah. You also get all this powerful

5:08

reinforcement from other people in the

5:09

group that tell you that you're doing

5:11

the right thing and they support you and

5:13

>> and and if you the thing with the

5:15

Epstein stuff online is just really kind

5:18

of like I remember five minutes ago

5:20

right for the for the the blue pill

5:24

people on CO if you don't care about

5:26

COVID as much as I do and if you aren't

5:29

informed as CO as much as I am you want

5:31

to kill grandma right like that's you're

5:33

told this explicitly

5:34

>> your kids should be taken away from you

5:36

should be banned from society,

5:37

>> right? And and my buddy Lup Perez, who's

5:39

a great comic, he had a great tweet. He

5:41

goes, "If you don't have COVID, you

5:43

can't spread COVID. I can't give it to

5:44

you just because I'm a bad person."

5:46

Right? But that was the mindset. And now

5:48

there's so much. There's what 300 3

5:50

million Epstein docs. If you are not as

5:53

invested as some people, you are a kid

5:57

toucher. You're covering for them. You

5:59

want this to happen. You're complicit

6:01

retroactly somehow.

6:02

>> Yeah.

6:02

>> And I can't make heads or tails of it. I

6:04

had Lucowski on my show who's been a

6:07

conspiracy, I'm not saying the negative

6:08

way, conspiracy guy for a very long

6:10

time. He's worked with Alex. He broke it

6:12

down. Then I had Michael Tracy on my

6:14

show and he said, "Look, a lot of this

6:15

hysteria. I don't know who is right, who

6:18

is wrong, but if I have any kind of

6:21

skepticism, I am somehow wanting

6:24

children to be abused. It's it's

6:25

insane."

6:26

>> Well, it's also it's like so much of it

6:28

is cryptic. Like we don't necessarily

6:31

understand what they were talking about,

6:33

>> right? And if you say like, "What's beef

6:35

jerky?" If it's, here's the thing, it's

6:38

obviously kids. It's not just that it

6:40

might be kids or probably. It's obvious.

6:42

And if you're denying that jerky is

6:43

obviously kids, you're denying that

6:46

people are children. I'm not denying

6:47

people children. I'm just saying, "What

6:49

if it's heroin? What if it's weapon?" I

6:51

don't I haven't read all those emails,

6:52

but the idea that it's definitely

6:54

literally infants, it seems like I want

6:57

to see some receipts.

6:59

>> Yeah, it could be many things. I mean it

7:02

it certainly is a code which right

7:04

indicates at least to me that they were

7:06

doing something they didn't want people

7:07

to know about.

7:08

>> And I remember with the Pizzagate stuff

7:10

I talked about this in my book and

7:11

you're right I had to get through this

7:13

through the legal cuz there was an email

7:15

where it's like oh the the maps or the

7:17

flags are really angry today. So they're

7:19

obviously not talking about maps or

7:20

flags. It was obviously about something.

7:22

We don't know what. But to pretend that

7:24

there was nothing there is also

7:25

disingenuous. They're it's clearly code.

7:27

But how do we know eating is not code?

7:30

Also, like eating jerky could be like

7:32

beating off, right? Or it could be

7:34

killing someone.

7:35

>> But the idea that No, the eating part is

7:36

true. The jerky part is kids.

7:38

>> I I I And frankly, what bothers me is

7:43

don't you want to hope that they're not

7:45

eating kids?

7:46

>> Yeah. Well, it's like people just want

7:48

to know and if they already were and

7:51

have been doing it for a long time that

7:54

seemed outrageous before a gigantic ring

7:59

was exposed where there really was a sex

8:02

trafficker who was compromising people

8:05

and really was doing it at the behest of

8:07

at least an intelligence agency whether

8:10

it's ours or the Israelis or whoever it

8:12

is

8:12

>> or the Russians.

8:13

>> A lot of people want to say it's the

8:14

Russians. Is there any validity to the

8:16

Russians?

8:17

>> I have no idea. The reason I said the

8:18

Russians is because I was on Drudge and

8:20

the headline was Epstein was Russian

8:22

operative. So it was presented on

8:24

Drudge. Don't take my word for it as oh

8:26

there's the receipts. This is why I'm

8:28

saying there's there there's MSAD

8:29

connections with him obviously,

8:30

especially through Gelain. CIA is a

8:33

no-brainer because why didn't they bag

8:34

this guy for years, right? I'm I talked

8:36

to Kurt Netzer about this and uh broadly

8:39

speaking and he makes the point like

8:40

these are all interconnected. this idea

8:42

that we're going to separate out like

8:43

the CIA from MI6 is they're buddies with

8:46

each other and and frankly that's in

8:48

many cases a good thing. You want to be

8:50

working with other countries if you have

8:51

international trafficking or or

8:54

terrorism or crimes but I don't know we

8:57

don't I I can't even finish the

8:59

sentence.

9:00

>> Right. Right. No, that's but you're

9:01

honest. That's why. Now the Russian

9:04

thing, is there anything that makes

9:05

sense to you to that? What did new

9:09

documents show Justice Department

9:11

documents mentioned Russia thousands of

9:13

times and Vladimir Putin over a a

9:15

thousand times reflecting extensive

9:18

Russia related communications and

9:20

contacts in Epstein's network. Emails,

9:23

travel records indicate, okay, so

9:24

there's real something to it.

9:26

>> Epste made multiple trips to Russia,

9:28

obtained business visas, had scouts

9:31

there recruiting young Russian women for

9:33

him. Of course, similar to his

9:35

operations elsewhere, the files describe

9:37

Epstein cultivating ties with Russian

9:39

political and business elites, acting as

9:41

a facilitator in deals and

9:42

introductions, not just sexual

9:44

encounters. Epstein repeatedly sought a

9:47

meeting or back channel communications

9:49

with President Vladimir Putin, at times

9:51

suggesting he had advice or insight to

9:54

offer about dealing with Donald Trump.

9:56

He had documented ties to at least one

9:58

former Russian official with a

10:00

background in the FSB

10:03

whom he used to gather information on a

10:05

woman he claimed was trying to extort

10:07

his business partners.

10:09

>> Well, for sure you're going to have

10:10

that. You got a bunch of Russian hookers

10:12

that you're bringing over there. Some of

10:13

them are going to try to explog.

10:15

The KGB for decades, for like almost a

10:18

century, was blackmailing Americans.

10:21

This is one of the big reasons why you

10:23

couldn't be uh there were restrictions

10:25

against gays because if you were gay at

10:27

a time when it was socially unacceptable

10:29

and the Russians found out about it,

10:30

they flipped you cuz they would sit you

10:32

down and they'd be like, "Look, we know

10:34

we're going to out you or you're going

10:35

to play ball." And in those situations,

10:37

you're going to play ball. This is a

10:38

huge scandal for a long time.

10:39

>> And that's a big There's a lot there's a

10:42

large percentage I don't know what the

10:44

population is of these undercover gay

10:47

politicians.

10:48

>> Oh. Oh, yeah. How many politicians? I

10:49

mean the bureaucrats like people working

10:51

for Johnson and and FDR this was a thing

10:54

and they would know

10:55

>> and they would they would they would

10:56

have honeypotss.

10:57

>> Mhm.

10:58

>> It wouldn't be hard at that time,

10:59

>> right? And for men, it's so easy to get

11:01

us.

11:02

>> Like God, it must be hard to get women.

11:04

Yeah. How would you blackmail a woman? I

11:06

mean, well, how do you trick them into

11:07

some guy they shouldn't be

11:09

And why would anybody care?

11:10

See, no one cares. Like if a woman has

11:13

an affair on her husband and has sex

11:15

with some hot guy on an island,

11:17

everybody's like, "You go, girl." Yeah,

11:19

Stella got her groove back.

11:20

>> Yeah, Stella got her groove back.

11:22

>> How would you How would you Yeah. How

11:24

would if I wanted Okay, let's let's

11:25

let's walk through this. If there's a

11:27

CIA lady and I want to flip her, right?

11:30

>> How do I

11:31

>> You got to get her to fall in love with

11:32

you.

11:33

>> No. Or you got to get her husband to

11:35

cheat

11:37

>> or go threaten her kids. You got to

11:39

threaten her kids. Threaten the kids.

11:40

But that's a hard one.

11:41

>> But that's a different thing than

11:43

getting her to do something that she

11:44

shouldn't have done out of lust.

11:46

>> How do you black Yeah. How do you

11:47

blackmail a woman?

11:48

>> Yeah. You don't don't have a That's

11:50

probably why a lot of women aren't in

11:52

trouble.

11:53

>> What? Why? They are in trouble.

11:54

>> Aren't.

11:54

>> Yeah, they aren't. Yeah.

11:55

>> Right. Because like I would imagine you

11:57

would want them too. There's plenty of

11:59

women politicians you'd want to

12:00

compromise. I mean, they did get Stacy

12:02

Plask. She was cooperating with Epstein

12:06

going back and forth during Trump's

12:07

administration.

12:08

>> Did you see also Kristen Cinema that

12:10

lawsuit?

12:10

>> Oh, no, no, no. I didn't see.

12:12

>> So, she was the senator from Arizona.

12:13

She was a centrist and of course they

12:15

ran her out of town

12:16

>> and she uh broke up a marriage basically

12:20

and in North or South Carolina where

12:22

she's being sued, you can be liable for

12:24

damages if you're like the side piece.

12:26

>> Oh, I've seen that.

12:27

>> And in the lawsuit, it's

12:28

>> that's a crazy law.

12:29

>> I know.

12:30

>> That's a ass law.

12:33

>> And you're suing a senator. And the

12:35

thing and I believe the the filing

12:36

completely because the filing said he

12:38

had PTSD so she was offering to give him

12:42

psychedelics to to help him heal which

12:44

I'm sure she did.

12:45

>> Uh and basically they just start a

12:47

relationship. He left the wife and it's

12:48

like this is unfortunate but it happens

12:51

but she's facing damages now.

12:53

>> That's so wild that that's a law. Yeah.

12:56

>> Like what if the person was on the way

12:58

out anyway?

12:59

>> Well, that's his argument. I'm sure.

13:01

>> Yeah. I'm sure.

13:02

>> No, but the case Oh, no. We were a

13:04

loving couple. We never had any

13:05

problems. Then cinema shows up and now

13:09

look at me. But

13:10

>> how is that not the man's fault?

13:11

>> I don't I don't I think it's probably

13:13

both.

13:14

>> Well, I know. Is No, he's she's suing

13:15

Cinema. She's not suing the guy, I don't

13:17

think.

13:17

>> That's so crazy.

13:18

>> Yeah.

13:19

>> What a stupid law. What? I don't

13:21

know. North or South Carolina.

13:23

>> H there's some of them old school laws

13:25

that are so dumb. How is that a law that

13:28

people have to be together? Like people

13:30

change their minds on people all the

13:32

time. They don't want to be with someone

13:34

anymore. You meet someone you really

13:35

like and you go, I don't I can't imagine

13:38

living the rest of my life without this

13:39

person and I've been trapped in this

13:41

horrible marriage. I'm out. And

13:44

then that person gets sued. She had some

13:46

other funny thing about like No, the guy

13:49

texted her like I think it was the

13:51

military and she writes back only the

13:52

hot ones. It So there's like So she got

13:56

all the texts out of his phone.

13:58

>> That's funny.

13:58

>> It's funny. It's a joke, right? But I

14:01

also it's it's like I think it's when

14:04

the feminists talk about the kind of

14:06

misogyny here. I think there is a bit of

14:08

misogyny that you're blaming the woman

14:10

and you're not blaming the guy.

14:11

>> Oh yeah. For that like the suit the

14:13

lawsuit. That's crazy. That is such a

14:16

ass lawsuit. North Carolina is one

14:18

of a handful of states that allow jilted

14:20

spouses sue for alienation of affection

14:23

to seek damages from a third party

14:25

responsible for the breakup of their

14:26

marriage. You should only be able to pay

14:28

them in tissues.

14:31

You should pay them in just crates and

14:34

crates of tissues. Oh, you get $500,000

14:37

worth of tissues.

14:38

>> It's I I

14:39

>> just bring up semis filled with

14:41

tissues.

14:41

>> I just think it's so it's so um

14:44

salacious and we shouldn't need to know

14:46

this.

14:47

>> Well, even if we do know it, the law

14:49

itself is preposterous.

14:52

>> Alienation of affection. Well, how

14:54

people decide they don't like people all

14:56

the time. That's why divorce exists.

14:58

>> Yes. And one of the reasons divorce

15:00

exists because people find someone they

15:02

like more and they go, "Oh, I up.

15:04

I have to get out of this marriage. I'm

15:05

in love with this other person."

15:06

>> And you don't always have to get

15:07

divorced. There's plenty of marriages

15:09

that survive like this.

15:10

>> Yeah, that's true, too.

15:11

>> So I What's the counter that you,

15:13

you're a Like he doesn't like you

15:15

anymore.

15:16

>> But the lawsuit thing is currently you

15:17

can get money for that. Kristen Cinema

15:20

has to pay this lady money cuz she I

15:22

think it's I think she's suing for a

15:24

lot.

15:25

>> How much

15:25

>> do you know what the damages are, Jamie?

15:27

Well, you go high just to settle.

15:29

>> Yeah, but the fact that the there's no

15:30

se I don't know what the ceiling is. I'm

15:32

not an North Carolina attorney, but it's

15:34

not cheap.

15:36

>> It's like I think the ho the side piece

15:38

is Oh, the She's not a hoe. She's

15:40

basically paying the wife alimony.

15:42

>> Oh my god. It's real money.

15:44

>> Yeah, it's no joke. Does it say

15:46

>> who would

15:47

>> $75,000 in damages?

15:49

>> That's it.

15:50

>> Yeah. Also, uh

15:52

>> she gave $9,000 to a man she's accused

15:55

of. Well, if it's 75 grand, she would

15:57

have paid it to shut her up.

15:58

>> Maybe she just doesn't want to out of

16:00

principle.

16:01

>> I Let me see.

16:02

>> It's got to be more than 75 grand.

16:04

There's no way you're a senator. You're

16:06

just going to

16:07

>> Maybe this is

16:08

>> Maybe because most people have the

16:09

reaction that we're having.

16:11

>> Like no one's outraged. No one's angry.

16:14

I yeah I think the response is that

16:17

>> oh that's

16:17

>> yeah she's alienation of affection

16:20

nicknamed the home wrecker law and is

16:22

seeking $75,000 in damages per her

16:25

lawyers. She argued that a complaintant

16:27

uh in a complaint that Cinema engaged in

16:29

numerous unlawful acts with her

16:30

ex-husband, including but not limited to

16:33

having conversations with him, that's

16:34

unlawful,

16:36

meeting him under emotionally and

16:37

physically, romantic, and sexual

16:39

circumstances,

16:41

having sexual encounters with him, and

16:43

encouraging him to leave his wife. They

16:46

she took him to some concert together. I

16:47

think it was like like

16:48

>> they said they went to a bunch of

16:49

concert.

16:49

>> They went to Copa. I think it was it was

16:51

like date night green day, a bunch of

16:53

stuff.

16:53

>> Yeah. Well, is that a physically

16:56

romantic and sexual encounter? Is that

16:57

what that is?

16:58

>> Well, I think it's romantic. Take a

16:59

>> Put that back up, please.

17:00

>> I was going to those concerts.

17:02

>> I mean, the lawsuit alleges that in the

17:04

fall of 2023, when Cinema's then head of

17:06

security resigned, the head disclosed to

17:09

Matthew AL concerns that Cinema was

17:12

having sexual relation, what a ass

17:13

17:16

with other security members. The

17:19

security head urged Matthew Amill to

17:21

leave, but Am refused. side of the job's

17:24

financial.

17:24

>> I love the idea like you don't want this

17:26

gig, she she'll you.

17:27

>> She's her security guard.

17:29

>> Yeah, more power to her.

17:30

>> She's a wild

17:33

>> While on the job, Matthew Amill had at

17:35

one point informed his ex-wife,

17:37

according to her complaint, that should

17:39

he and Cinema be together on a work trip

17:41

to Napa Valley, California, it would

17:43

have appeared as if they were on a

17:45

romantic getaway. Huh.

17:48

Uh 2024, Heather Aml discovered that

17:51

Cinema frequently messaged her

17:53

ex-husband on Signal, which included a

17:55

picture of the former senator wrapped in

17:57

a towel and a suggestion that he bring

17:59

MDMA. Yeah, let's go Kristen. The drug

18:03

commonly known as Molly or Ecstasy to a

18:05

rope work trip so that Cinema could

18:08

guide him through a psychedelic

18:09

experience. Wink wink. In March of 2024,

18:12

Matthew Emil informed his then ex his

18:15

then wife that while he was serving as

18:17

cinema security at an event the former

18:19

senator was having getting handsy and

18:22

that she held his hand and touched him.

18:25

According to the complaint, Matthew Am

18:27

expressed that he didn't know how to get

18:28

out of the situation without offending

18:30

cinema.

18:31

>> She was also the first bisexual member

18:33

of the Senate ever.

18:35

>> What a good kid.

18:35

>> So, you know she's a freak.

18:36

>> What a good kid. Molly towels pictures.

18:41

She's got my vote.

18:42

>> I'm I'm vote for again. She should run

18:44

for president.

18:44

>> She cinema for president.

18:46

>> Let's go, Cinema. Come on. She's a

18:48

centrist. That's what America needs. You

18:49

want a women president?

18:51

>> Let's go. Let's get a freak in the

18:52

office.

18:53

>> Uh we have a freak in the office.

18:55

>> He struggled to admit the a to the

18:57

affair, the complaint says, but

18:59

expressed that he wanted a divorce.

19:01

>> Oh, he struggled to admit to the affair,

19:03

but expressed that he wanted a divorce.

19:05

After a November work trip, Heather and

19:07

Matthew Amill separated. Her complaint

19:10

alleges that her ex-husband and Cinema

19:12

remain romantically involved. Cinema and

19:14

Matthew Amill both appeared at a forum

19:16

in October. Um, are they still together?

19:20

>> I don't.

19:22

>> Those don't last.

19:23

>> It's only six states.

19:24

>> Chicks get bored once they win. Once

19:26

20:43

know she's going through that.

20:43

>> She's a freak.

>> Yeah. More power to her.

20:45

>> Yeah. Like look, we uh we don't have any

20:48

problem with men that do that.

20:49

>> I think we do.

20:50

>> Well, we do now.

20:52

>> Some people do. I don't.

20:54

>> There's two types of people that want to

20:55

be leaders.

20:56

>> War mongers and hounds. I prefer

20:58

the hounds. Don't leave your wife

21:00

alone with them. But I prefer them

21:02

because at least they're just trying to

21:04

get sex. They're not trying to blow up

21:06

the world and conquer and like they want

21:08

to be Genghask Khan. Well, actually,

21:10

>> is it your position that Lindsy Gro is

21:12

not a hound? Is that

21:13

>> It is my position that Lindsey Graham is

21:17

allergic to

21:20

>> Yeah. Wait, are they

21:21

>> They asked him if you know he was going

21:23

to run for president. You know, he's

21:24

single. Yeah, but he's single. Yeah. And

21:26

uh you know what about a first lady?

21:27

He's like, "Maybe I'll have a bunch of

21:29

first ladies."

21:30

>> Oh my. Did he say that?

21:31

>> He said something along those lines.

21:33

>> I remember.

21:34

>> Which is never something a man would say

21:36

who's into women.

21:37

>> Barbara Mckowski, uh, who was this

21:39

senator from Maryland for many years,

21:41

who was like 411 hobbit creature,

21:44

clearly gay, more, no disrespect to her,

21:47

she was asked about it and she turns to

21:49

the guy next to her, is like, "Hey,

21:50

good-looking." It was something like

21:51

that. It was so cringe and awkward.

21:54

Yeah. So, what did Lindsey Graham say

21:56

about uh having many first ladies?

21:59

>> Oh my god.

22:00

>> Said have it he mentioned his sister as

22:02

someone who could fill in for the role.

22:03

It says,

22:03

>> "Oh, okay.

22:04

>> He would have a ro quote rotating first

22:06

lady

22:07

>> because like what Dolly Madison did that

22:09

like there was one of the first early

22:11

founding fathers was a widowerower. So

22:13

the daughter

22:14

>> his sister first and then rotating first

22:17

lady." What year was this when he was

22:19

running?

22:20

>> 2015.

22:21

>> Yeah. Hey,

22:23

>> do you remember the thing I remember

22:24

about his campaign is Trump had a rally

22:28

and he gave out Lindsey Graham's phone

22:30

number, right? He did. Oh, you don't

22:32

remember this? So, this is the best

22:33

part. No, no, this this is so insane.

22:36

So, Trump is like, cuz Lindsay would

22:38

call him for campaign donations and and

22:39

Trump's like, "If you guys don't agree,

22:41

let's give him a call." He holds up the

22:42

page, goes, "Uh, 345 blah blah blah."

22:45

And Lindsay, yeah,

22:48

look at that face. Look at HIS FACE.

22:52

WHAT? WHAT IS THIS WORLD we're living

22:53

in?

22:54

>> No, no, no. But hold on, it gets even

22:55

better. So Lindsay, like, how do I

22:57

reclaim the narrative? Lindsay filmed a

22:59

video of him taking his phone and

23:01

breaking with the hammer. And I'm like,

23:04

but you still have the same number. You

23:06

just broke your own phone. You're not

23:07

trolling Trump at all. It's like, if I

23:09

>> You just broke a device. You could have

23:11

gone to Verizon and had your number

23:13

switched. You my license plate and

23:15

I wrecked my own car. I'm not trolling

23:17

you. I'm trolling me. I'm like, does no

23:20

one realize this? Doesn't make any

23:21

sense. It was so crazy.

23:23

>> Everyone's so performative.

23:24

>> Is there someone who's a wararmonger?

23:26

Well, Bill Putin's a hand.

23:28

>> Is he though?

23:29

>> I Yeah. Did you not

23:31

>> He's more of a wararmonger,

23:32

>> but he's both. Did you not see Topless

23:34

Girls?

23:35

>> Oh, really?

23:36

>> There he was.

23:36

>> Here he goes. He's throwing it in the

23:38

blender.

23:38

>> Oh my gosh.

23:39

>> He's hitting it with a hammer, a golf

23:40

ball. Oh, lightning on fire.

23:43

>> Oh, let me see that swing.

23:45

>> Let me see that bad show. He put Red

23:46

Bull in with the phone. What's that

23:48

about?

23:48

>> I think it's gas lighter fluid. No,

23:50

>> he didn't even get to

23:51

>> Oh, it is Red Bull. Why is it Red Bull?

23:54

>> He hit it with a golf swing. He lit it

23:56

on fire. Like, this is so cringe.

24:00

>> But it doesn't make any sense.

24:02

>> Put it in a

24:03

>> bagel oven.

24:05

Is that pizza bagels?

24:06

>> Oh my god. What's wrong with this dude?

24:10

>> But your number's the same.

24:11

>> What a silly That's back in the

24:14

old footphone days, too.

24:15

>> Yeah. 2015.

24:17

Wow. He was still rocking a flip phone

24:19

back then. No iPhone.

24:20

>> People are rocking them now again

24:21

because of uh surveillance things. My

24:24

friend Dave has one.

24:25

>> Does a flip phone help you?

24:26

>> I think so.

24:27

>> How so?

24:28

>> I don't know. I'd have to ask Dave.

24:29

>> You can still get all those textbooks.

24:31

>> I think the Oh, cuz the people No, I

24:33

think you're spending less time on the

24:34

internet.

24:35

>> That's true. Yeah, but you could also

24:38

just spend less time on the internet.

24:40

>> Yes, that is also an option. I think

24:42

that's a healthy option. I think

24:43

>> you could do it. Do you know what I

24:44

here? I want to hear your thoughts on

24:46

this.

24:47

>> So during co there was a huge

24:50

uh amount of time that everyone's

24:53

spending online. Everyone's obsessing

24:54

about co we're all everyone's constantly

24:56

agitated

24:57

>> and my concern is

24:59

>> that these social med Mark Zuckerberg's

25:01

job is to keep you on Facebook as much

25:03

as possible, right?

25:04

>> All that data that they had during co is

25:06

still there, right? And I think all

25:08

these social media companies are still

25:10

keeping us in a constant state of

25:11

agitation. So you're stuck watching

25:13

these screens and it's really doing harm

25:17

and it's not getting better.

25:20

>> That's a fact.

25:21

>> Okay. Yeah.

25:21

>> Yeah, that's a fact. Well, isn't he

25:23

testifying? They're they're testifying

25:25

soon uh about whether or not they set up

25:29

their algorithms to harm children. They

25:32

set up their al algorithms to addict

25:34

children to uh their social media

25:36

platforms.

25:37

>> Well, you remember Elsagate?

25:38

>> Elsagate? Yeah.

25:39

>> Yeah. That was the whole thing.

25:40

>> Yeah. Explain that to people.

25:42

>> Well, Elsagate was this I I still don't

25:44

think we have an answer. People made

25:46

these They don't even know where it came

25:48

from up in overseas. There are these

25:50

bizarre YouTube videos with millions of

25:53

views where it would be like the Hulk

25:56

but he's like sniffing kids feet and

25:58

Elsa's just doing like putting in a cage

26:01

like bizarre things that is kind of

26:04

sexual but not really and you don't know

26:06

what the purpose is but because they

26:08

were like gaming the algorithm you know

26:10

YouTube this Trump got in trouble with

26:12

this when Trump was sharing that video

26:13

the very end of it went to a Lion King

26:16

video making fun of the Democrats.

26:18

There's that one of the as apes from the

26:21

beginning. They cut there and it looked

26:23

like he was sharing that. It was just

26:24

the next video that was queued up and it

26:26

looks like Trump shar video of the

26:28

Obamas as apes on purpose.

26:29

>> Well, they were all in it in the same

26:31

video, but it was like Hillary was a

26:33

wartthog. Obama or Biden was also an ape

26:36

and he was eating a banana.

26:38

>> Pritsker was the king and and Trump came

26:41

out as a lion,

26:42

>> right? But the point is I think what he

26:43

posted he posted only the first second.

26:45

>> I don't think he posted it.

26:46

>> Yes, he did. is I thought it was an

26:48

intern.

26:48

>> Well, the point I mean it's from his

26:50

account.

26:50

>> Well, someone reposted it, right? Right.

26:52

That's what it was.

26:53

>> No, he reposted somebody else.

26:54

>> I think his his is

26:56

>> intern. But the point is anyway with

26:58

Elsagate, kids start watching one video

27:01

and the algorithm just snags them and 1

27:03

hour later they're watching completely

27:05

deranged stuff. The Elsagate thing was

27:08

weird too because a lot of it was like

27:09

old cartoons and uh what people were

27:13

saying is that if your child like say if

27:15

you give your child an an iPad and it

27:17

goes from one YouTube video to the next

27:19

and then show suggest those got lumped

27:22

in there and you would click on it and

27:23

it was all a sudden like

27:24

>> someone would get a bottle broken over

27:26

their head. There'd be blood everywhere.

27:28

It was really weird,

27:29

>> right? And it's

27:30

>> and it's like a Mickey Mouse cartoon

27:31

>> and there was no utility to this.

27:32

>> Are those still available? I'm looking

27:34

at the Wikipedia says it's kind of it's

27:36

continued but it's switched from like

27:38

the it's whatever's popular at the time

27:40

for kids. So back then it was Frozen or

27:42

whatever and now it's like Minecraft.

27:43

>> What are they doing though? Like why why

27:45

are they sense

27:46

>> like what why would they have these

27:48

cartoon characters get hit over the head

27:50

with bottles and cuz you remember that

27:52

one like a lot of them they would get

27:53

drunk and fall and break their head on a

27:56

countertop or something

27:57

>> or they'd be covered I think this was

27:59

another one they were covered in dots

28:00

for no reason. I'm like I'm not even

28:02

kidding. It was just like, "What is

28:03

going on?" Or they're eating weird

28:06

stuff.

28:06

>> So, does YouTube remove those videos?

28:09

Because there's plenty of violent videos

28:11

on YouTube. Like, is it because they're

28:14

Or do do they put like an age

28:16

restriction on them?

28:18

>> I don't think they did because what's

28:19

the age restriction? There's nothing

28:20

sexual. There's nothing

28:21

>> Well, violence.

28:22

>> But some of them were just weird.

28:23

>> Yeah. Some of them were just

28:24

>> like lots of shots of feet.

28:26

>> Was And there was all There was a lot of

28:29

ones where kids got left alone with

28:30

creeps. Yeah.

28:32

>> Yeah.

28:34

>> Cartoons.

28:35

>> Very strange.

28:35

>> There's also live action stuff.

28:37

>> Oh, really?

28:38

>> Yes. And it's just like who are these

28:40

people filming this? And for what? I saw

28:42

another one. There was this channel

28:44

which has millions of views for each

28:46

video. And it's things like turtles

28:48

vomiting up fish like dead fish like

28:51

live action or dead fish coming from the

28:52

ground as if it's it's I I don't

28:54

understand what the point of this is. Do

28:57

you remember um during Benghazi they

29:00

tried to blame the attack

29:02

>> on this video?

29:04

>> Oh my god.

29:05

>> You remember that?

29:06

>> Of course.

29:06

>> That was the the propaganda was that

29:08

there was some video that no one had

29:10

seen,

29:11

>> right?

29:12

>> Like some terrible video.

29:13

>> Some really that got everyone all riled

29:15

up, right?

29:16

>> Yeah. That got the Muslims riled up and

29:17

that's why they attacked.

29:19

>> And there was also Well, she was also

29:20

blaming the 2016 election on ads on the

29:23

dark web. It's like how many people on

29:25

the dark web? Do you even know what it

29:26

is? What are you talking about?

29:27

>> Ads on the dark web flip the election.

29:29

That's hilarious.

29:30

>> That's insane.

29:31

>> 50 incelss,

29:33

>> right?

29:34

>> In a chat room. Like, but that's that

29:37

was she says this all the time, Hillary,

29:39

to this day.

29:40

>> Well, she just says it, you know, like

29:43

she doesn't have to be credible anymore.

29:44

It's like we just assume we just know

29:46

that that kind of communic like if

29:48

you're having a one-on-one conversation

29:50

with her just privately and she started

29:52

talking like that, you'd be like, "What

29:53

are you talking about? This doesn't make

29:54

any sense. Do you really believe that

29:55

when

29:56

>> she got clowned in Europe this week?

29:57

>> I did with the Czechoslovakian guy.

29:58

>> Yeah.

29:59

>> Yeah.

30:00

>> It was funny.

30:00

>> It was very funny.

30:01

>> But the way she was interrupting too,

30:03

you you want women to have their rights

30:05

taken away. Like what? That's not what

30:06

he's saying. He's literally talking

30:08

about all this crazy these gender

30:10

transitions and people were really like

30:13

they'd had enough with the immigration.

30:15

People had had enough. You don't you're

30:17

pretending that's not real. Like this

30:19

way forward. Like if the Democrats want

30:22

to have a way forward where they connect

30:23

with people, you got to admit that

30:25

there's some reason why people were

30:27

responding the way they did to a

30:29

open border to men playing in women's

30:32

sports to all this G gender

30:35

transitions of children. Like people

30:37

were freaked out. And not just

30:39

Republicans. A lot of people.

30:41

>> Yeah. Karen's a swing voter. Karen

30:43

doesn't like this kind of stuff.

30:44

>> Yeah.

30:44

>> Uh I don't know if you saw Did you see

30:46

Nancy Pelosy's retirement video?

30:48

>> No. Well, you laugh, but you Nancy

30:50

Pelosi is probably the smartest

30:51

politician in Washington in terms of

30:52

being crafty. Like, she knows how to

30:54

get a bill passed. She knows how

30:56

to make people walk the plank. So, she's

30:58

retiring from Congress this year. She

30:59

had this 10-minute long video about, you

31:01

know, saying goodbye to San Francisco.

31:03

10 minutes. She talks about AIDS at

31:06

length, right? Uh because obviously it

31:07

affected San Francisco. Doesn't mention

31:09

the word gay once, even in the context

31:11

of AIDS. Doesn't mention LGBT. Doesn't

31:13

mention black people, people of color.

31:15

She mentions how much she loves going to

31:17

church. St. Thomas of Aisi and Veterans

31:20

Day. So I'm like, she knows what you're

31:23

saying. You got to pivot and start

31:25

talking to people about pocketbook

31:26

stuff. But then Gavin Newsome recently d

31:29

undid his, you know, he backtracked with

31:31

Charlie Kirk when he's just like, yeah,

31:32

I know about about uh men and women's

31:34

sports and now he's doubling down on

31:35

trans kids, which is

31:37

>> Is he really?

31:38

>> Oh yeah, he just started doubling down.

31:40

>> God, how does he think that that's going

31:42

to work now?

31:43

>> I think he thinks he's got to get

31:44

through that primary,

31:46

>> right? But do you does he not know that

31:49

people are done?

31:50

>> No, cuz I'm sure he has better polling

31:53

than you or I. And I'm sure

31:55

>> maybe I'm just naive about California.

31:57

>> Well, it's not California. It's the

31:59

Democratic base who's going to vote for

32:00

him.

32:01

>> You know, he's also killed his mom.

32:03

>> What?

32:04

>> Yeah, he's he did a sister and his mom.

32:06

He bragged about it to the Washington

32:07

Post.

32:07

>> You didn't know this?

32:08

>> No. What was wrong with his mom, though?

32:10

I I'm sure it was something awful, but

32:12

when I have when I have a hear a

32:13

politician talking about something that

32:15

personal that publicly, I am not going

32:18

to look at it through a positive vein.

32:20

And this made stuff is in 14 states now.

32:22

Do you know this?

32:23

>> Yeah. Well, in Canada, it's off the

32:26

hook.

32:26

>> You know, Kelsey Sharon, I've been

32:28

talking to her about this. She

32:29

completely blew my mind. So, first it

32:31

used to be because it's always a um Oh,

32:34

yeah. 55

32:36

long battle with breast cancer, deeply

32:38

personal event. and he is described as a

32:39

complex experience involving assisted

32:41

suicide. The Washington report

32:44

Washington Post report and his memoir

32:46

expressed deep grief and remorse

32:48

regarding her death.

32:50

>> Remorse is a very dark word in this

32:52

context.

32:53

>> He was 34 and a San Francisco supervisor

32:56

at the time.

32:58

Yeah. But maybe it was his mom's

33:00

decision and he helped her. Look, if

33:03

you're dying of terminal cancer and your

33:06

body's rotting out, I feel like just

33:08

like you put a dog down, like there

33:11

there's times where I think assisted

33:12

suicide is probably a good option if

33:14

there's no hope and you're just going to

33:16

be in agony for months.

33:17

>> And there's times where people have

33:19

gender dysphoria and it's a good thing,

33:21

>> right? That was different.

33:23

>> Hold on. It's not My point is people

33:25

like Blair White, Brianna Woo, you know,

33:27

they have gender dysphoria. It's

33:29

perfectly appropriate to call them. they

33:31

they you know it's otherwise very

33:33

disturbing. Five minutes later, once it

33:35

becomes a political issue, it's anyone

33:37

who just puts on a dress. Right?

33:39

>> So, the point that's that Kelsey has

33:40

been going on with Canada is now they're

33:43

going after people who are depressed.

33:44

They're going at people who are

33:45

disabled. They're going after kids. And

33:46

the darkest thing that's happening over

33:48

there, which they're importing here, is

33:50

the old people are extremely expensive

33:53

for the system, right? If you have

33:55

socialized health care, I don't know

33:56

what the number is, a huge number.

33:57

Towards the end of your life, you're

33:59

racking up those bills. So there's a

34:00

huge incentive for that government to

34:02

get you off of their ledger. So now

34:05

they're having this movement where let's

34:08

all get together and have grand we're

34:11

all going to go kill grandma. Five

34:12

minutes ago if you don't if you don't

34:13

wear the co mask you want to kill

34:15

grandma you're a bad person. Now if you

34:17

don't want to kill grandma you're a bad

34:18

person. You don't want to end this way.

34:20

You were such a strong person. Die with

34:22

dignity. Blah blah blah. It's not always

34:24

terminal stuff. And in Europe, they're

34:27

having it with teenagers who are

34:28

depressed.

34:30

>> It's and you know perfectly well,

34:31

everyone listening to this knows it's

34:32

not a slippery slope. It's an elevator

34:34

shaft.

34:34

>> Is this

34:35

>> This is the back door.

34:36

>> Is that financial incentive?

34:38

>> It's a huge financial incentive. Think

34:40

about it. If you're old and you're

34:41

$1,000 a day and the government's paying

34:43

it, if I get rid of you, look how much

34:45

I'm saving,

34:46

>> right? And

34:47

>> and you're Oh, you don't want to be a

34:48

burden to your family.

34:50

>> What? You don't want to have them

34:52

sitting by your bedside. Come on.

34:55

It's happening here.

34:57

>> New York just passed it. It's 14 states.

35:00

It's being and no one's passed it.

35:02

>> New York just passed it.

35:03

>> Oh, you see Mandami is like he's trying

35:06

to figure out a way to use his budget.

35:08

His budget is higher than the entire

35:11

budget of the state of Florida, which

35:12

has three times more people.

35:14

>> No, it's not. Is it? Yes, it is. Yeah.

35:16

The budget for Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Look it

35:18

up. That

35:19

>> the budget for New York City is larger

35:22

than the budget for the state of

35:23

Florida.

35:25

Holy, I did not know this.

35:27

>> Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is true. Uh,

35:29

we should look it up, but uh I was

35:30

reading an article about it today,

35:32

unless the article's completely full of

35:33

They were saying that it's several

35:36

billion dollars more for New York City

35:38

than it is for the entire state of

35:40

Florida, which has roughly three times

35:42

as many people living in it.

35:43

>> Holy. Is that true, Jamie? I'll try to

35:45

>> um I I just I go back, you know, once a

35:48

month to do Gutfeld. And I can't believe

35:51

I'm saying this as a former New Yorker,

35:53

but I like LA better now than New York.

35:56

>> Whoa.

35:56

>> It It hurts me physically to say,

35:58

>> what's wrong with New York now?

36:00

>> There's no

36:01

>> Here it is.

36:03

>> Eye popping amount. Insider called

36:04

Insanity is up around 11 billion from

36:07

the current year.

36:08

>> That's like 9% up. a record $127 billion

36:12

budget proposal on Tuesday. The

36:14

socialist leader, city leader plan

36:16

includes a whopping 9.5% proposed

36:19

property tax hike.

36:21

>> 9.5 hike

36:24

>> on New Yorkers, which he claims would be

36:25

a last resort while allocating another

36:28

$1.2 billion for migrants.

36:32

>> Migrants.

36:33

>> What's the Florida budget, Jamie?

36:34

>> Uh, scroll down a little bit. Okay. Uh,

36:39

wow.

36:40

>> But that's what

36:41

>> Oh my god. It's the same. It's about the

36:42

same.

36:42

>> Yeah. The New York one would have been

36:43

that this year, I think.

36:45

>> Yeah. But it's comparable. Holy crap.

36:47

>> So it's not three times more or whatever

36:49

the it is. More.

36:51

>> No. Three times more people. Right.

36:53

>> Right. So that is triple per capita.

36:55

>> Yeah. Triple per capita. So the budget

36:58

of Florida

37:00

House is 113.6 billion to 115 billion.

37:05

And the New York proposal is

37:09

127 billion. So it is more.

37:10

>> Holy.

37:11

>> So New York City is their budget is more

37:14

than the entire state of California with

37:17

three, excuse me, state of Florida with

37:19

three million more people or three times

37:21

the people.

37:22

>> Holy proposal, but for this year it's

37:24

the it would be this about the same

37:25

because if it's 11 million, that's 116.

37:27

That's the same.

37:28

>> But it's the point is it's still

37:30

>> it says it's up 11 billion from the

37:32

current year.

37:32

>> It's it's still a proposal though. He

37:34

hasn't passed it.

37:35

>> Well, he's not. Yeah, he's a

37:36

psychopath. Like, the the the amount for

37:40

migrants is crazy. There should be zero

37:42

dollars for illegal immigrants.

37:44

>> I I don't think you can have zero

37:46

because if they're going to be there,

37:47

they're going to be you have to feed

37:49

them. You have to take You have to do

37:51

something with them.

37:53

>> Like, literally, if if you don't feed

37:55

them, they're going to be robbing

37:56

stores. They have to Human beings need

37:58

food. What are you going to do? You

37:59

>> get them jobs.

38:00

>> How are you going to get a migrant a

38:01

job? uh get him a job in Guatemala.

38:03

>> Wouldn't you rather give them food than

38:04

a job? I don't want them taking American

38:06

citizens jobs.

38:07

>> Well, the whole thing's a mess.

38:08

>> The whole thing's a mess. But the point

38:09

is you can't just throw them away,

38:11

right? That's the problem.

38:12

>> Unless you're going to remove them from

38:13

the country,

38:14

>> right? Unless you remove if you even if

38:15

you want to put them in jail, that's not

38:16

cheap,

38:17

>> right? That cost a lot of money,

38:18

>> right? So, what are you going to do? I I

38:21

remember um Piers Morgan had this

38:24

amazing interview with my favorite

38:25

British politician, Dian Abbott, who is

38:27

really special needs clearly. And in the

38:30

UK, you have the the government which is

38:32

members of parliament from the uh uh

38:35

majority party and then you have the

38:36

minority party which has a shadow

38:38

cabinet. So if there's a secretary of

38:40

state, the dem Rubio, the Democrats

38:42

would have a Democrat equivalent who

38:43

would deal with those issues. And she

38:46

was their shadow home secretary which

38:47

deals with immigration. And he goes,

38:49

Diane, if the Labor government wins the

38:52

next election and you have illegal

38:54

immigrants here, what do you do with

38:55

them? Do they get to stay? Do you have

38:56

amnesty? You're going to deport them?

38:58

And he goes, she goes, "Peers, the

39:00

coutry uh system is not fit for purpose.

39:03

It's terrible. We'll be more efficient

39:05

and more fair." And he goes, "Right,

39:08

gotcha. There's an illegal immigrant. Do

39:10

they get to stay or are they deported?

39:13

I've explained this to you." And she's

39:15

just It was just this amazing thing.

39:17

>> Circular.

39:18

>> Yeah. I love her.

39:20

>> Um, how much money do they give to poor

39:23

New Yorkers? Oh, it's not. It's going to

39:26

be a lot. But is it the same amount?

39:28

>> Look at this.

39:29

>> Okay,

39:31

so 7.54

39:34

billion to fill cliffs across six major

39:37

unbudgeted needs.

39:39

>> Just to say though, they haven't raised

39:40

property taxes there in over 20 years.

39:42

>> Is that true?

39:43

>> That's what this says. It's 25 years

39:44

since September.

39:45

>> Well, the property taxes are high.

39:47

>> I'm just just a point. But I I

39:49

understand they haven't raised it, but

39:51

they shouldn't raise it

39:52

>> because it it goes with as property

39:54

values go up, the percent's going to go

39:56

up, the revenue is going to go up as

39:57

well.

39:57

>> Exactly. There's no reason to raise like

39:59

this idea that they haven't done it, so

40:01

they should do it is crazy.

40:02

>> Oh, look at that. So if your condo is

40:04

120 grand, which is no condo is going to

40:06

be that cheap.

40:07

>> Uh you're paying like 15% every year in

40:10

property tax.

40:11

>> Yeah.

40:12

>> That's not nothing.

40:13

>> That's not nothing. I think the idea is

40:15

that rich people are just going to pay

40:16

it and this is what they're trying to

40:18

push. Meanwhile, people are going to

40:20

flee just like they've done in other

40:23

countries when they've done sort of

40:25

wealth taxes.

40:27

>> That's 1,200 bucks though.

40:30

>> A month. But the the So 1,200 a month.

40:32

Yeah.

40:33

>> 1,200 for the year.

40:34

>> A condo? No, it's

40:36

>> assessed at $120,000 would go from

40:39

paying 14,000 to 16,000. But that's a

40:41

condo that's assessed at $120,000. Good

40:45

luck finding a condo assessed at

40:47

$120,000 in New York City.

40:49

>> 14,000 divided by 12 is

40:51

>> well for that particular condominium

40:53

unit

40:53

>> from 15,000 to 16,300. That's that's a

40:56

difference of

40:59

>> 1300.

40:59

>> Oh, I see. I saw you talking about

41:01

>> that's 12% on $120,000. Now do a $55

41:06

million condo.

41:07

>> This is a $3.2 million one. the really

41:09

the really wealthy people are

41:11

responsible for a large percentage of

41:13

the tax income in New York City. I think

41:15

it's the upper 1%. See if what I think

41:18

the upper 1% of New York City are

41:20

responsible for 50% of the tax revenue.

41:22

>> It's got to be something crazy.

41:23

>> It's something crazy like that. See what

41:25

the actual number is. So the thing about

41:28

that actual number is those are the

41:30

people that are going to leave because

41:32

those are the people if they own

41:33

multiple properties in New York City and

41:35

then he hits him with this tax and it

41:38

winds up being an ex excessive amount of

41:40

money and then they're planning on

41:42

taxing people if they leave. This is

41:44

like what they proposed in California.

41:46

They've also proposed this I think in

41:47

the Netherlands to try to stop people

41:49

from leaving right where you have to

41:50

still have to pay taxes.

41:51

>> France was doing some weird thing. I

41:52

remember when Deardu was leaving they

41:54

were trying to do something. They're all

41:55

just trying to steal money. Top 1% of

41:57

New York City income. Yeah. Earners paid

42:00

48% of the city's personal income tax

42:02

liability in 2021, the most recent year

42:05

with detailed data. Why is the most

42:06

recent year 5 years from ago? Um, the

42:09

PIT share equates to roughly 11% of New

42:13

York City's total tax revenue. PIT

42:15

accounts for 23% of overall city tax

42:17

collections. So, it's a lot of money.

42:19

48% of the city's personal income tax

42:21

liability is an enormous amount of

42:23

money. So property tax is 45%. That's

42:25

where they get all their money from,

42:26

which I can understand because you can't

42:27

take the Empire State Building somewhere

42:29

else,

42:29

>> right? But if you're jacking all that

42:31

up, top 1% paid 40% of PIT shares may

42:36

have declined post 2021 due to lower

42:38

capital gains.

42:39

>> But he did do something I liked. So him

42:40

and Kathy Hokll had this thing where now

42:42

where they're trying to streamline, I'm

42:44

sure there's some catch to make it

42:45

easier to build because they're

42:47

understanding if if rents are high,

42:48

demand, increasing supply is going to

42:50

lower costs. So, if they do that, I

42:52

think that's a great thing, obviously,

42:53

which I never saw coming.

42:55

>> Right. That is that's definitely good.

42:58

But there's still people are just they

42:59

don't like that kind of leadership. It's

43:01

spooky.

43:02

>> I I'm much more concerned about he has

43:04

someone on his in his cabinet or

43:06

proposed to be in his cabinet who's

43:08

concerned with decarceration. And the

43:10

princ the principle is we got too many

43:13

people in jail. Now, maybe that might be

43:15

true broadly speaking, but when you

43:17

apply that on mass and not on a case- by

43:18

case basis, who are you going to be

43:20

letting out? Because I don't think this

43:22

this claim people used to have that

43:24

like, oh, all these people are in jail

43:26

because of weed, they're not. And

43:27

certainly not in New York City. When I

43:29

was on a grand jury and these weed cases

43:31

came along, people wouldn't even indict

43:33

them. They're just like, we're not

43:34

taking part of this. This is BS. And now

43:36

it's legal.

43:37

>> So, for you to get to look at what's the

43:39

guy who uh uh was under Jordan Neely,

43:41

was that his name? What he had? 40

43:42

arrests. the one who punched that girl

43:44

in the face, the old lady in the face

43:45

and tried to kidnap a girl.

43:46

>> So for you to be in jail in New York,

43:49

it's not nothing,

43:50

>> right?

43:51

>> Yeah. And why why would they want to do

43:54

this?

43:55

>> Cuz their principle is the system or

43:58

society, whatever you want to call it,

44:00

whatever term for it is, is c making

44:03

people who are marginalized desperate.

44:06

So they act out. So instead of putting

44:08

them in jail, which helps no one is the

44:10

argument, we should be working with them

44:12

systemically to kind of normalize and

44:16

make productive citizens out of them.

44:17

>> And what's their plan for that?

44:20

>> Yeah, you have welfare programs,

44:21

different training programs, just throw

44:23

money at it.

44:24

>> Huh.

44:25

>> And here's the thing. I can understand

44:27

that argument. Maybe if someone's

44:29

stealing bread to feed their family,

44:31

I've never understood how I'm really

44:33

poor, so I'm going to hold a woman down

44:35

and do bad things to her. That's not a

44:37

thing.

44:38

>> Or just randomly punch people in the

44:39

streets or throw people in front of

44:41

trains.

44:42

>> Yeah,

44:42

>> that's right. It's like that's not a

44:44

It's not cuz you're late to your job

44:45

interview that you shove somebody in

44:47

front of the six train,

44:48

>> right? Yeah, it's dark, man.

44:50

>> It's very dark. But I LA is not as dark

44:53

as this from what I I think in LA there

44:55

is this still this sense of hope

44:58

>> really cuz people I talk to in LA

45:00

everyone I know knows someone broken

45:03

into

45:04

>> like the home invasions

45:05

>> Oh that's right that's a thing

45:07

>> they're up in a huge way.

45:09

>> I'm just comparing two different kinds

45:10

of cancer

45:11

>> and I'm saying the cancer in LA

45:14

>> is better than the cancer in New York.

45:15

>> Yes.

45:18

Because I remember growing up and not

45:20

that long ago with New York, there'd be

45:22

this you could find some new

45:23

neighborhood and there'd be some, you

45:25

know, cool ice cream store, some sock

45:27

store, whatever, button store, cool f

45:30

little spots, and it would be a fun

45:31

adventure. Just walk around and just

45:33

walking different places. And that's

45:35

gone, is it? Yeah. You can't open up

45:38

some weird little store in New York

45:40

anymore. The rent's through the roof.

45:42

Like it's the crime is through the roof.

45:44

It's miserable. LA has these little

45:46

pockets which I enjoy seeing.

45:48

>> So, what's the solution for New York

45:50

after this guy's out?

45:53

>> Do you think that it ever turns around

45:54

or do you think it keeps going in the

45:56

same general direction? And do you think

45:57

the powers that be want it to go in this

45:59

general direction?

46:00

>> It always turns around. So, John

46:02

Lindseay was mayor in the late60s during

46:04

like the summer of love stuff.

46:06

>> Uh, you had sexual assaults through the

46:08

roof. You remember New York was going

46:10

bankrupt under a beam when Gerald Ford

46:12

was president and Ford the headline the

46:14

I think the New York Post was Ford to

46:17

New York City dropped dead and that you

46:18

know you know cost him some votes and

46:20

possibly the the presidency but New York

46:23

has these I don't know what the cycle

46:25

for Giuliani to win you had to have a

46:26

Dinkens you know for Obama to come in

46:28

you had to have a Bush so at some but

46:31

here's the other problem there's two

46:32

issues one is a lot of people who could

46:35

left there didn't used to be a plan B

46:37

for New Yorkers New York was its own

46:39

thing.

46:40

>> Now it's Florida.

46:41

>> Now it's Florida or Austin.

46:42

>> Yeah.

46:43

>> And New York isn't New York anymore. Cuz

46:46

Fran Liberitz, my my second favorite

46:48

public speaker, she had this point. She

46:49

goes, "Look, there's a lot of things you

46:50

could say about a city that's full of

46:52

rich people. You could say it's good.

46:53

You could say rich people are bad. You

46:55

can't say it's interesting. And unless

46:57

there's a space for young people of

46:59

nothing to lose

47:00

>> who are going to bring culture and

47:03

innovation,

47:04

>> artists,

47:04

>> artists of broadly speaking, not just

47:06

little painters, but artists,

47:08

>> it was Williamsburg, it was the Bowery

47:11

before that, you know, there were little

47:12

pockets of magic. And I I read hook I

47:16

remember there was a bar called Lilies

47:18

and all of Red Hook was deserted and

47:20

there's this one light open and I came

47:21

to this bar and there were this amazing

47:23

singers and it was like a mystical

47:25

experience and there'd be street art but

47:27

that's you can't do that now.

47:28

>> Friend of mine's girlfriend used to work

47:30

in this place called Den of Thieves.

47:31

>> Oh, okay. Yeah.

47:32

>> Yeah. And you there was no sign,

47:34

>> right?

47:34

>> You go in there this dingy little hole

47:37

in the wall. This place is so cool.

47:39

>> It's so cool. But you can't do that

47:41

anymore.

47:42

>> No. So, and I don't think under this guy

47:46

there's going to be that uh return.

47:49

>> So, so do you think he's just appealing

47:53

to this base of disenfranchised young

47:55

people that have been told that the

47:57

reason why they have all these problems

47:59

is rich people are greedy and they've

48:02

ruined everything and we should tax the

48:04

rich and we'll feed the poor. I think he

48:07

is speaking to a lot of so people on the

48:09

right think everyone on the left is like

48:10

a big monolith. They're not. And I think

48:13

there's a lot of lefties, especially

48:14

young lefties, who don't think the

48:16

Democratic Party is an effective

48:18

mechanism toward resolving their issues

48:20

and concerns. And he's not he's unlike

48:24

Trump wasn't really a Republican. He's a

48:25

Republican on paper. He had no

48:26

allegiance to the Republican party. He

48:28

took them all out one at a time. This

48:29

guy is a Democratic socialist. He has no

48:32

uh in 1934 when Upton Sinclair ran for

48:35

governor of California after years of

48:37

running as a socialist, he goes, "People

48:39

vote for the party their grandparents

48:40

voted for." So he's a Democrat on paper.

48:43

He's a leftist obviously, but he's a

48:44

Democrat on paper. Cuomo was the

48:45

establishment hack. And he's like,

48:47

"Look, it was like Obama in08. Do you

48:49

want to go with this old party hack or

48:52

this young guy who's got a different

48:53

vision?" And he definitely does have a

48:55

different vision. This isn't how, you

48:57

know, Hillary would govern New York City

48:58

or or or uh or even Eric Adams or or

49:01

some of these others. It's

49:02

>> Well, I think one of the big reasons he

49:03

won was that debate where he said that

49:05

he wouldn't go to Israel.

49:06

>> You think that's a big big one, New

49:07

York?

49:08

>> 100%. I think that was an enormous

49:10

shift. I I

49:11

>> I would say that's a 10 15% shift.

49:13

>> 10 15

49:14

>> huge. We have

49:15

>> absolutely huge. I think I think the

49:17

polling is horshit because it's only

49:18

people so stupid they answer

49:20

polls.

49:21

>> Like who are those people?

49:22

>> I think there's

49:23

>> I think there was a giant cultural shift

49:25

where people like right shouldn't we be

49:27

paying attention to New York? Why are

49:28

all these people saying they want to go

49:29

to Israel? Why are they saying that?

49:32

Who's paying them? Why are they saying

49:35

that? That's an odd thing to say. No

49:37

one's saying the first thing I'm going

49:38

to do is visit Belgium. They're not

49:40

saying that. They're saying we're going

49:42

to go to Israel.

49:43

>> Sure. But there's also a huge Jewish

49:45

population in New York City, right? So

49:47

when Cromo tapped into that, I don't

49:49

know. I don't think Mumani was somehow

49:52

outed right as an

49:53

>> anti politicians like the percentage of

49:57

people that are Jewish in New York City

49:59

is small in comparison to the people

50:02

that think that New York City should be

50:04

the main focus of attention and not

50:05

Israel. And I think when you have all

50:08

these politicians that are doing things

50:09

that don't make sense to most people,

50:11

like saying the first thing I'm going to

50:12

do is visit Israel. What are you talking

50:14

about? This city's a mess. And then this

50:16

guy comes along and says, I can serve

50:18

the Jewish people of New York City

50:20

better in New York City.

50:21

>> And he had a large Jewish uh percent of

50:24

Jewish vote. My point is I don't think

50:26

that that number happened because of

50:27

debate. I think that was part of his

50:29

appeal from the beginning. Well, I think

50:31

for fence sitters though, that debate

50:33

was big because you got to see one guy

50:35

who's like, "This is a solution to this

50:38

system that we have been just replacing

50:41

the heads of the people that are in

50:43

charge, but it's the same exact

50:44

mechanism."

50:45

>> No, that's that's what I was saying

50:45

earlier that he's not a member of the

50:47

Democratic party. Cuomo is this old

50:49

party hack and he's like, "Look, let's

50:51

throw all that stuff in the garbage.

50:53

This is something innovative and new."

50:54

This was the argument Obama made in '

50:55

08. And he's not wrong,

50:57

>> right? like he when he when he had his

50:59

inaugural speech and he said, "We're

51:01

going to get rid of the cold whatever uh

51:03

uh uh grasp of capitalism and be

51:05

embraced by the warmth of collectivism."

51:08

No Democrat is saying things like this.

51:10

This is something completely new and

51:12

completely innovative. So, how it's

51:14

going to look in practice. Here's the

51:16

other thing, though. The mayor of New

51:18

York has a a ceiling to what he can do.

51:20

So, I would not if I'm He's 34, I think.

51:24

He's young. I don't If I'm sat in that

51:26

office and I'm up against the New York

51:28

City real estate uh um uh uh industry,

51:32

it's not going to be easy fight for me,

51:35

>> right?

51:36

>> Trump had to learn this the first term.

51:38

It's like just because you're president

51:39

doesn't mean people are going to bend

51:40

the knee,

51:41

>> right,

51:41

>> and play ball. So, who knows what this

51:43

is going to look like?

51:46

>> And it's not just New York City.

51:47

Seattle's doing the same thing. What are

51:49

they doing? Seattle, they elected a

51:50

full-on Congress. That's right. Yeah.

51:52

Who lived with her parents

51:54

>> and hasn't had a job, lives off her

51:56

parents.

51:57

>> Well, this is also a big concern with

51:59

the Democrats in general. But both

52:02

parties, when you have the base and the

52:05

establishment who are basically just

52:07

gangsters who are uh doing

52:08

moneyaundering and you have the kids who

52:10

are like, "We've been screwed over

52:12

hearing this for for for

52:14

decades. Let's have an alternative."

52:17

What do you do when you're Nancy Pelosi

52:18

and you're Chuck Schumer and you're to a

52:20

lesser extent Hakeim Jeff and these

52:23

people are coming up the kids wanting

52:25

Democratic socialists? I don't mean

52:26

kids. I mean young people who are

52:27

idealistic and they're like you're we

52:29

tried your way. It didn't give us

52:30

He gave us Trump. What do you tell them?

52:33

>> Yeah. What do you tell him?

52:34

>> You give there's no answer. You like

52:36

vote for Stenny Hoyer for another 10

52:37

years. Like like it's ridiculous.

52:41

Amy Clolobachar is not going to be your

52:44

candidate if you have this democratic

52:47

socialist vision. She will not deliver

52:48

that for you and she'll tell you that to

52:50

her fate to your face. Oh.

52:52

>> So I think that the um so I think that's

52:54

the dance Muome is trying to do.

53:00

And I don't see who I I think he'd be

53:03

the perfect VP because he's a great

53:05

attack dog. He doesn't have to worry

53:07

about defending.

53:08

>> I don't want to be the VP.

53:09

>> I've heard that, too. But he was uh um

53:11

Jerry Brown's number two. He he bided

53:14

his time.

53:15

>> Yeah, but he was Jerry Brown's number

53:16

two when he was young and he had never

53:18

been the governor.

53:18

>> Sure. I'm just saying like he would be

53:21

the perfect VP for the Democrats.

53:22

>> I don't think he wants that. I think he

53:24

wants to be the king. I think he wants

53:25

to ruin San Francisco, ruin California,

53:28

and then go on to become the president.

53:30

>> You don't think he'd have a good shot

53:32

>> at being the president? Yeah,

53:33

>> I think he does.

53:34

>> He does. He has a great shot.

53:35

>> I think he does. Yeah. I think people

53:36

are that dumb.

53:37

>> I don't think it's that dumb. I think

53:39

you could

53:40

>> They're that dumb that they're willing

53:41

to vote party line no matter what. And a

53:43

guy who's just a good speaker, who's a

53:45

good artist, that he could be

53:47

able to sweet talk his way into that

53:49

position and just fudge data, lie about

53:51

stuff. Nick Shirley is in California

53:54

right now doing the same thing that he

53:55

was doing in Minneapolis. Yeah. And

53:57

they've already uncovered

53:58

billions of dollars of fraud. Yeah. Oh,

54:01

he's making videos about it.

54:03

>> Oh, wow.

54:03

>> Same kind of fraud. Medicaid fraud

54:05

through the roof. All kinds of crazy

54:08

>> Yeah.

54:08

>> But I mean, I don't know how much that

54:10

Minnesota stuff permeated. I mean, it

54:13

took down Tim Waltz, which is a one of

54:15

the biggest scalps. Like, no one saw

54:16

that coming, right?

54:18

>> But the same thing, you take out Tim

54:19

Waltz, here's Clolobachar's governor.

54:20

It's a hydra. You're not you're not

54:23

frankly you'd rather have him. He's more

54:25

defeatable than her.

54:26

>> Does it depend upon how much fraud gets

54:29

exposed and who gets connected to that

54:31

fraud and what the investigation

54:33

unveils?

54:34

>> I you're going to have people who listen

54:36

to NPR tell you with a straight face

54:40

that this fraud happens under any

54:42

they'll have a little a list a list of

54:44

excuses. It's I it's been investigated

54:47

and resolved. This happened what?

54:49

there's no fraud in Florida and Texas or

54:51

what are you saying? Or why are you

54:53

targeting the Somali, right?

54:55

>> So, you're not going to get and at the

54:57

end of the day, I think people expect

54:59

government to have fraud and if it's in

55:01

Minnesota, you're not really going to if

55:02

I'm a Democrat in Minnesota, I'm voting

55:04

Democrat. And if I'm Republican, it's

55:06

not how many votes is this going to

55:07

sway?

55:08

>> Well, they've done an amazing job in

55:10

Minnesota of distracting people from the

55:11

Somali fraud by organizing protests

55:13

against ICE, right?

55:14

>> And that's people need to understand

55:16

like yes, people are upset about ICE.

55:18

fact un unquestionably just regular

55:20

people at home that aren't protesting.

55:23

But that protest is not just organized,

55:26

it's funded. It's heavily funded

55:28

organized. They had signal chats with

55:31

Democratic congressmen or Democratic

55:33

politicians rather that were involved in

55:35

this. There's they knew what they were

55:37

doing and they did it because they

55:39

wanted to distract from the fact that

55:41

this fraud was being exposed.

55:42

>> Well, I think they would do it

55:42

regardless, but yes, it certainly serves

55:44

that purpose.

55:44

>> They totally shifted the narrative.

55:46

>> Yes. Nobody's talking about the fraud

55:48

anymore. Everybody's talking about ICE

55:50

being murderers,

55:50

>> right?

55:51

>> Yeah.

55:52

>> So, it worked. That's what I'm saying.

55:53

If there's more fraud exposed, I don't

55:55

know that it's going to work against

55:56

Newsome.

55:57

>> Well, it depends on how the trials lay

55:58

out. So, if people wind up going to

56:00

trial over this and people wind up

56:01

getting indicted over this, that could

56:03

get more interesting because then you

56:05

remove it from Minnesota and then it

56:07

becomes this federal court thing and so

56:09

then it becomes mainstream public news

56:10

if they do this correctly. if there is

56:13

something there.

56:13

>> But the thing is you have to worry about

56:14

if the judge is going to be complicit

56:16

and if the prosecutor is going to be

56:18

complicit like and the media is also you

56:20

gota kind of fly that arrow through

56:22

three hoops that you got to go through

56:24

the bushes and make a you got a small

56:26

hole shoot through.

56:28

>> Yeah.

56:28

>> And then to try to make it indic and

56:30

then it'd be very easy for you to be

56:32

like I'm so glad this got exposed.

56:34

>> I promise you as president this won't

56:36

happen in America. And if you want to

56:38

talk corruption, look at Trump and all

56:40

his sweetheart deals. Blah blah blah

56:41

blah blah. Hillary's already throwing

56:42

women under the bus about Epstein. They

56:44

don't have shame.

56:45

>> Did you see that? Hillary's like Trump's

56:47

in files thousands of times. Like let's

56:50

have this conversation. She started

56:51

already.

56:52

>> Right. Right. What does that mean though

56:54

when you're in the file thousands of

56:55

times? Because he is the guy that was in

56:59

contact with the FBI about Epstein. He

57:02

he did contact the FBI after Epstein was

57:05

arrested and thank them for arresting

57:07

him and getting him because that guy was

57:09

a real problem.

57:10

>> Right. But

57:11

>> he did kick him out of Mara Lago in

57:13

2005.

57:14

>> But she's being factual but not

57:15

truthful. So it is factual that his name

57:18

is in the files thousands of times. And

57:20

then you leave it for the person

57:21

listening to make that conclusion.

57:22

>> Right. That's all you have to say.

57:23

That's all you have to say.

57:24

>> We were talking to Don Rawlings

57:25

yesterday. He's in the files.

57:27

>> Who?

57:27

>> Okay.

57:28

>> Because Epstein went to visit his show.

57:30

went to watch his show at Improv in West

57:32

Palm Beach.

57:33

>> I I I did a search for the word

57:36

and the one the one email I found was

57:38

someone like, "Can you mail me that

57:40

photo where I look fat and retarded?"

57:42

>> That's it.

57:43

>> And it's not clear from who. It's too

57:44

abstracted.

57:46

No one wants to know they were admitted

57:48

they look fat and

57:49

>> or the nwords in there a fair amount

57:51

also.

57:52

>> Well, there's a lot of references to

57:53

pizza,

57:55

you know. There's I think there's

57:57

thousands of references to pizza and

57:59

jerky. The jerky and grape soda. Yeah.

58:04

>> So I thought

58:04

>> the grape the thing about grape soda is

58:07

grape is like what people do to get

58:09

around the algorithm when they're

58:10

discussing rape when they don't he

58:12

graped them.

58:13

>> But this was like 2011. I don't think

58:15

people knew about that stuff.

58:16

>> Right.

58:16

>> And I don't think Epstein as a boomer

58:18

knows how to get around algorithms.

58:20

>> Right. This not an algorithm thing. It's

58:22

just a code thing. So, I thought maybe

58:24

it's a black thing, but then

58:26

>> grape soda. Oh, right.

58:27

>> Yeah, but then he's racist. There's like

58:29

things about don't bring black people.

58:30

>> Oh, really?

58:31

>> Oh, yeah.

58:31

>> He says don't bring black to that

58:33

effect. Yeah, something that something

58:35

to that effect. Please double check me

58:36

on this, but it was something that he

58:38

was not No black girls.

58:40

>> Oh, no black girls. Interesting.

58:43

>> Huh. So, yeah.

58:46

>> I don't think we're ever here. I I the

58:48

other thing that I'm kind of stunned at

58:50

is there's this belief online that if

58:54

there's enough agitation

58:56

like Qanon we're all going to have these

58:59

mass arrests and I don't see that

59:01

happening and I don't think you can do

59:04

anything to force them to release the

59:05

really bad stuff if they haven't.

59:08

>> So what else is left? There's three thou

59:11

3 million other files that they have.

59:13

>> They said they released everything.

59:16

Well, they also said there wasn't

59:17

anything,

59:17

>> right?

59:19

>> You know, when Cash Patel was on here,

59:21

it's like there's no videos, there's no

59:22

evidence, there's no nothing.

59:24

>> The craziest for me was when Pam Bondi

59:26

said, "I've got the list and I said to

59:29

myself, and I I talked to my friends,

59:31

they all agreed with me. I'm like, I

59:32

really don't think he had like clients

59:34

list. Doc on his desktop. That's not a

59:36

thing, right? So, I would I I believe he

59:38

doesn't like have a literal list." And

59:40

later she goes, "When I said list, I

59:43

meant blah blah blah." And I'm like,

59:44

"But you said list,

59:45

>> right?" Well, they had those binders.

59:47

They were all performatively holding

59:49

those binders. We have the files. We're

59:51

going to go through them. Heads are

59:52

going to roll. Nothing happened.

59:53

>> Right.

59:54

>> And then Les Wexner, what did he say

59:56

today, Jamie? You were saying that he

59:58

said, "Man, he was conned or something

60:00

by

60:00

>> He's conned.

60:02

>> I've been seeing online. I don't know

60:04

the accuracy that there's a bunch of

60:05

missing files from specifically 1999

60:08

through 2001,

60:09

>> right? And that people are connecting

60:11

that to 911." Yeah.

60:13

>> Oh, wait. Wait. 19

60:16

>> pre and post 911 are all missing.

60:19

>> Wait, so Epstein might be involved with

60:20

9/11?

60:23

>> But I I mean, what's the thumb taxes

60:24

string? I'm not saying it's impossible.

60:26

I'm just saying

60:26

>> Well, there's a lot of people that

60:27

believe that Israel was involved in 911,

60:29

>> right? But I don't think Epstein was

60:30

high up in the Israeli decision-making

60:32

process.

60:33

>> Oh, but they're I think they're just

60:34

looking for financial records of things

60:37

and those are all missing. Um people's

60:40

names

60:41

pop up. If I found out Muhammad Ata was

60:44

a pedophile, I might actually start to

60:45

dislike that guy.

60:48

>> That would really change my opinion of

60:50

him.

60:51

>> I've seen files surrounding 911.

60:52

>> Wow. Coincidence. Oh, this just came

60:55

out.

60:55

>> Yeah, this is I mean, people are still

60:57

digging into this stuff every day.

60:58

>> Holy crap.

60:58

>> Why people keep fighting new all

61:00

the time.

61:00

>> Oh my god. Scroll down. This is

61:02

fascinating.

61:02

>> That cryptic

61:04

George W. Bush photograph.

61:06

>> No, the Clinton ones worse

61:07

>> of the art. Yeah, the dress. We have

61:08

that outside.

61:09

>> Yeah, I saw. Yeah,

61:10

>> they stumbled across something where

61:12

there was redacted photos. If you looked

61:14

through the files and typed in something

61:15

like no photos rendered,

61:17

>> you could change the PDF tompp4 orov.

61:21

Thousand videos of videos were popping

61:23

up.

61:23

>> Wow.

61:24

>> People are starting to watch all those

61:25

videos. Some of them are from the

61:26

prison. Some of them are from the

61:27

island.

61:27

>> Flight logs starting. Okay. So,

61:29

>> have they found anything in those

61:30

videos?

61:31

>> I that's

61:32

>> You got to go through them individually,

61:33

right?

61:34

>> Yeah. No, people are now that's I don't

61:36

again the accuracy I don't know. I've

61:37

seen a video where someone said this was

61:39

from the video and there's like a girl

61:40

crying in it, but I don't know.

61:41

>> Aderall and autism, do your job.

61:45

Find those videos.

61:46

>> That that should be the subtitle of this

61:48

show. A real good experience. Add all

61:50

and autism. Do your job. Holy crap.

61:52

That's hilarious.

61:54

>> Oh my god. What a world we're living in.

61:57

>> You want to talk about I want to talk

61:58

about Scott Adams?

61:59

>> Sure.

61:59

>> I was just at his memorial. Are you Was

62:02

he ever on your show?

62:03

>> Yes. Um, I got invited to speak and it

62:06

was really a great uh um experience. I

62:09

got a because I'm a mental patient. I

62:11

got a Dilbert mask and the thing with

62:14

the Dilbert mask is there's no mouth,

62:16

right? So Dr. Drew was supposed to speak

62:18

and I was going to go there and do my

62:20

little terrorism where I was going to

62:21

have my little phone and say, "Nice to

62:23

meet you. I'm Dilbert." And wave and

62:25

then swipe and be like, you know, "Can

62:26

you take off your glasses, please?" And

62:28

he takes out the glass and be like, "Uh,

62:29

nice eyes. May I I'm going to take

62:31

them." and just with people at the

62:33

funeral like Scott would have wanted.

62:34

Um, it was really uh great because it

62:38

was very upbeat and I was kind of

62:42

honored. Gutfeld asked me to Gutfeld

62:44

text me. He goes, "Hey, do you want to

62:46

speak?" And I go, "I'm be huge honor."

62:47

He just goes, "Great." And I'm like, "Am

62:48

I actually speaking or you're just, you

62:50

know, quizzing me?" Um, I got to see

62:53

Cernovich was there, Pobic, a few other

62:54

people. and then afterwards went to his

62:56

house. And there's something really kind

62:58

of um

63:00

eerie about walking in the house of

63:03

someone who had just uh passed. His

63:05

ex-wife Sherry let me take two of his

63:07

markers, which I will, you know, always

63:09

treasure and kind of hang in my house.

63:12

There were two lines I couldn't say at

63:13

the memorial because I knew the fans

63:15

would get salty, which is, uh, Scott is

63:18

in heaven right now doing what he loved

63:19

most, avoiding black people. And the

63:21

reason Dilbert was a black and white

63:23

comic strip is because Scott didn't

63:24

really like the colors,

63:26

>> right? Cuz Scott was a humorist. Just go

63:29

for the joke, right?

63:30

>> Um, but it I mean it it's it's it's

63:35

just it's it's weird uh how much he

63:39

still resonates, I think, with with

63:41

people. Um, and I I don't really have

63:44

anything else particularly to say, but I

63:46

just felt it was important to kind of,

63:47

you know, commemorate his passing

63:49

because he's really helped me out a lot

63:51

in my thinking.

63:52

>> Yeah. It's a real bummer, man, because

63:55

it happened so quickly. His cancer. He

63:57

got turbo cancer.

63:58

>> Well, he had it in January 2025,

64:02

>> and he said, "I'm going to wait for my

64:04

stepdaughter to get married." And she

64:05

was there, and I got to meet her. She

64:06

was a lovely kid, uh, to get married and

64:09

then I'm gonna do it. And then he

64:12

tweeted something out. RFK jumped in.

64:14

Trump jumped in. They got him this

64:16

medicine and they got him a few more

64:18

months. And you know, so he got six more

64:20

months. Point being with the maid stuff.

64:21

Just cuz someone's terminal doesn't mean

64:23

they don't have months left. You could

64:25

do a lot in those months. It was funny.

64:27

There's another cartoonist. I apologize.

64:29

I'm blanking his name. And uh he was

64:32

friends with Scott for a long time.

64:33

Scott had promoted his work once and he

64:35

went from like obscurity to like a big

64:36

name. And Scott asked him, "Hey, can you

64:39

write the forward to my forthcoming

64:40

biography?" And the guy's like, "I'm not

64:42

really gonna have time." So it like

64:44

Scott was that kind of person where he's

64:46

just like, "Just because you know I'm

64:48

about to meet my maker, I don't want you

64:51

to be morose. I I he reframe your brain

64:55

is a complete masterpiece because what

64:58

he does is he goes through

65:00

>> uh fra mindsets and instantly

65:02

recalibrates them. One of them is the

65:04

regular framework is I should do great

65:06

at my job. And his reframe is my job is

65:10

to prepare for a better job. And when

65:12

you think about it that way, having that

65:14

shitty job isn't that rough because

65:15

you're just laying the groundwork for

65:17

something better. So when I spoke, I

65:19

said the framework is we're having a

65:20

memorial for Scott, but the reframe is

65:22

we're having a party and Scott's really

65:24

late, right? So if you think about that

65:26

terms, hey, we're having fun. Where's

65:28

this Because he didn't want us

65:30

to be there like moping. He won. He

65:32

always was positive. Always was fun even

65:35

during that day. So I I thought I just

65:38

owe him a lot.

65:39

>> Did he blame his death on the co shots?

65:42

>> So he got a lot. This really bothered me

65:46

because he'd be tweeting about stuff.

65:48

People like shouldn't have got the shot.

65:49

It's like this guy's about to die. Like

65:51

this is your gotcha moment. This is your

65:53

like I told you so moment. It's just

65:54

>> so he he did not blame it. Um, I

65:57

wouldn't be surprised if that was the

65:58

You saw what just happened. I met James

66:00

Vanderbeek through you. I met him at the

66:02

mothership in the green room. 48, six

66:05

kids. The wife seemed very sweet and

66:07

charming, too. He was just a seemed like

66:09

a real chill dude. I haven't seen one

66:11

person

66:11

>> seemed like a super nice guy.

66:12

>> Not one person anything bad to say about

66:14

him, which says a lot from that kind of

66:15

era.

66:16

>> Yeah. No, he was a sweetheart.

66:17

>> So, 48, man, that that's that's scary.

66:20

>> I know. And it's there's an

66:22

unprecedented number of young people

66:24

that are dying of cancer. In fact, was

66:25

it Time magazine that had a cover of it?

66:27

I saved it because it was kind of the

66:30

cover is kind of crazy because it's

66:32

proposing like what is causing these

66:34

things and why is this all happening as

66:35

if no one knows?

66:37

>> Yeah, right. Like who what could it be?

66:38

>> What is this? Some mystery could

66:41

be anything, you know? Uh I know I saved

66:44

it.

66:44

>> Something from a year ago.

66:46

>> Raised to explain why more young adults

66:48

are getting cancer.

66:49

>> Holy crap.

66:50

>> Yeah. What do you think it could be?

66:52

Anything weird happened? Do you guys

66:54

know what SV40 is? Should probably look

66:57

it up. But

66:58

>> what's amazing about articles like do

66:59

they are does that article make it a

67:01

point to do they ignore the vacc

67:03

so-called vaccine or do they downplay it

67:05

as the cause? Like those are the two

67:06

options,

67:07

>> right?

67:08

What did they say in that article? Did

67:10

they bring up

67:13

>> love to hear that

67:14

>> couldn't possibly be you?

67:16

>> Do you know what really me up

67:18

recently? And you're going to laugh in

67:20

my face and every Maha person listening

67:22

this is going to laugh in my face.

67:23

>> What? And you could feel free to laugh

67:24

at my face because it's covered in polka

67:25

dots.

67:27

Aspartame.

67:30

I would drink. My main method of

67:32

hydration was Dr. Pepper Zero.

67:36

It's warranted. I know. This is why I

67:38

have the polka dots. And I go to New

67:40

York and I'm low on calories for my

67:42

macros. And I switched to full sugar Dr.

67:45

Pepper. So it wasn't the caffeine. And

67:47

my thinking changed. And I'm like, this

67:50

is And I go online. This has been known

67:53

for since

67:54

>> you change household.

67:55

>> I was quicker on my feet. I was having

67:58

trouble remembering words, remembering

68:00

names, remembering just being my verbal

68:04

cogn uh speed of how I speak is

68:06

something that is part of my job and I

68:08

was having issues with that. I have

68:09

workarounds when I couldn't think of

68:10

someone's name or someone's word or I

68:12

was having this also. There you go.

68:14

Research has linked high consumption of

68:15

aspartame to impaired memory, spatial

68:17

learning deficits, and faster cognitive

68:19

decline.

68:21

in adults under 60.

68:23

>> Yep. Neuroinflammation, oxidative

68:25

stress. Aspartame metabolize metabolites

68:28

could trigger chronic micro gile

68:32

activation and increased oxidative

68:35

stress in the brain leading to neuronal

68:37

damage and potential neurodeeneration.

68:40

Um, you know who pushed that through,

68:42

right? Aspartame. Rumsfeld.

68:45

>> No.

68:45

>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

68:46

>> Uh, search that. So, here's the thing.

68:49

>> Throw that into perplexity. If you're if

68:50

you're listening to this and you're

68:52

someone like me who was living on it,

68:54

just try for two days, right?

68:56

>> Really?

68:56

>> And you'll know right away if cuz I also

68:59

had this low-key anxiety all the time.

69:01

Like it was like a one out of 10, but it

69:02

was there. I thought, "Okay, it's just

69:04

whatever it I thought it's just life."

69:06

Nope, it's gone.

69:07

>> Donald Rumsfeld, CEO of GD Serial in the

69:09

late 1970s, early 80s, played a pivotal

69:11

role the FDA approval of aspartame, the

69:14

artificial sweetener in products like

69:15

Neutrieet.

69:17

>> Holy crap.

69:17

>> Yeah. Um, so they there was studies back

69:21

then um showing approval due to

69:25

potential carcinogenic car

69:27

carcinogenicity

69:30

risks. Uh, Hayes approved aspartame for

69:33

dry food shortly after expanding it to

69:35

beverages by 1983.

69:38

What would there was studies on I think

69:40

there was rat studies

69:41

>> gave them like Alzheimer's.

69:44

Well,

69:46

>> so I am just warning people as much as I

69:48

can. Pretend I'm a quack. That's fine.

69:51

Just give it two days.

69:52

>> Lay off aspartame

69:53

>> and see what happens to you.

69:55

>> Okay.

69:56

Well, it makes sense. I mean, there's no

69:59

biological free lunch. If you get

70:02

something, it does something positive,

70:04

it's probably doing something negative.

70:05

It's if it's some novel potion that

70:08

you're pouring into your body, there's

70:10

probably some negative aspect of I was

70:13

talking to Dr. Mike about this about um

70:17

ompic and all

70:18

>> brain tumors in rats.

70:19

>> Yeah.

70:20

>> Led FDA to stay aspartame 74 approval.

70:23

Brain t and rats, man.

70:26

Highlighted high brain tumor incidents

70:28

in rat feeding studies and risks from

70:31

phenyl alanine causing convulsions or

70:33

mental retardation. Isn't that what they

70:35

think killed Tammy Fay Baker? Didn't she

70:37

drink like a gallon of Diet Coke

70:39

a day?

70:39

>> Really?

70:40

>> Yeah. Find that. I think I think that's

70:44

what a lot of people because Tammy Fay

70:45

Baker I think died of brain cancer.

70:47

>> Colon cancer.

70:48

>> Colon cancer. Okay.

70:49

>> Lungs.

70:50

>> What's that?

70:51

>> That spread to her.

70:52

>> Oh, that's awful.

70:53

>> Went from her colon to her lungs.

70:54

>> That's what is she doing? Mass stuff.

70:58

>> She should call Kristen Cinema.

70:59

>> I don't think it's contagious.

71:00

>> She should call Kristen Cinema. That was

71:03

some weird orgies down there.

71:04

>> Um,

71:05

>> But wasn't she like a prolific diet coke

71:08

drinker?

71:11

I think she was I think people were

71:14

trying to link it.

71:16

>> Look, it can't be good for you.

71:17

>> Well, I I

71:18

>> tastes like sugar. It's not sugar. It

71:19

can't be good for you.

71:20

>> It did a number on me and I'm happy to

71:22

be able to warn people.

71:23

>> Um

71:24

>> scared the out of me when it when

71:26

>> I like stevia. Like I like these drinks

71:29

called Zevas. They're stevia drinks and

71:32

zero calories. Tastes good,

71:34

>> right?

71:35

>> Doesn't quite taste like sugar, but it

71:36

tastes good enough.

71:37

>> I'm just sticking to my water and my

71:39

full sugar sodas. I My daughter's like

71:41

really good at reading labels and

71:43

finding and she was like, "You sure

71:43

you're only supposed to drink one of

71:44

those a day?"

71:45

>> I

71:45

>> I was like, "Are you sure?"

71:46

>> Was eating a protein bar this this

71:48

morning while getting my face did and I

71:50

just look at the label and one of the

71:51

ingredients I see is titanium dioxide.

71:53

I'm like, "Do I really

71:54

>> titanium?"

71:56

Interesting.

71:57

>> Like what?

71:58

>> Yeah.

71:59

>> So that's in me now.

72:00

>> Yeah. There's other protein bars. You

72:03

don't have to eat that

72:03

>> I think they all have that.

72:05

>> No, I eat carnivore bars. You ever had

72:06

carnivore bars? Just like fat and meat.

72:09

I use M Light is the brand I use.

72:11

>> Carnivore bars are great. They they they

72:14

just taste like like you're eating fat.

72:16

Fat and meat

72:18

>> like Okay. But is that all the

72:19

ingredients are?

72:20

>> Yeah. I don't think there's anything bad

72:22

in them at all. I think it's like

72:25

>> Pull that company up. Carnivore bars.

72:30

>> I'm happy to switch.

72:31

>> Yeah. I think it's pretty natural. I

72:33

don't I don't think there's anything in

72:34

there.

72:35

>> This got to have a lot of salt or

72:36

sodium.

72:36

>> Yeah, there's some salt in there, but

72:37

salt's not bad for you. That's all

72:39

horseshit.

72:39

>> Well, like when you're eating TV dinners

72:42

and those numbers, that's not bad.

72:43

>> That's different. TV dinners are filled

72:44

with preservatives. Oh, carnivore snacks

72:47

is great. This is No. Well, this is

72:49

something that I eat all the time. This

72:51

is my go-to snack. When I go to the UFC,

72:54

that's the stuff I bring. I bring that

72:56

and you bring it. They don't have it for

72:58

you.

72:58

>> No, I bring it. I bring it because I get

73:01

this.

73:02

>> I work with this company. So, they send

73:03

me a bunch of it. It's great.

73:05

That but the carnivore bar. So, this

73:06

stuff.

73:07

>> Okay. Purest meal on earth. Two

73:09

ingredients. 20 gram of protein, 35 gram

73:12

animal-based fat, 400 to 420 calories

73:16

from grass-finish beef. Shelf stable, no

73:18

refrigeration.

73:20

>> That's what I eat.

73:21

>> Okay, send it to me. Send me some, guys.

73:22

>> I have some. They'll send you some. But

73:24

if I had some here, I give I eat those

73:26

all the time. I take them with me. I

73:28

throw them in my car. It's

73:30

great. If you want to eat something

73:31

>> that is what I need.

73:32

>> Protein. It's got grass-finish beef

73:34

tallow. So, you get the fat from beef

73:35

tall. Some people don't like the fe the

73:37

taste of it. I like it.

73:38

>> Why do they I like

73:39

>> It's kind of mild or bland.

73:41

>> That's fine though. You're eating it

73:43

from

73:43

>> trying to get food,

73:44

>> right? Yeah. Nutrition.

73:45

>> Yeah. But it doesn't make me feel bad at

73:47

all. It feels like food. Like I've tried

73:50

some other stuff like I tried those

73:52

David bars. Oh my god. I never heard of

73:53

that

73:54

>> farts I was having. So David bars, they

73:58

have some weird uh fat in it that your

74:01

body doesn't digest.

74:02

>> Like those oene chips,

74:04

>> something like that. but a new version

74:06

of it. And so when this company uh when

74:09

they were purchased, they got a monopoly

74:13

on that kind of this whatever this

74:15

ingredient is and all these other

74:17

companies, they blocked it. These

74:19

companies that were using it, they

74:20

couldn't use it anymore. So a lot of

74:21

people were like boycotting David bars.

74:23

They taste good and they have like a lot

74:25

of protein. I think it's like 30 protein

74:27

for like 150 calories. But good lord,

74:31

the farts I was having. I was like,

74:32

"This is cuz your body's like, "What is

74:35

this?"

74:35

>> I had that same thing with protein

74:37

Cheerios.

74:38

>> Protein Cheerios.

74:39

>> Yeah. It wasn't farts. I was having the

74:40

trots. But really?

74:42

>> Yeah. Like it tastes good.

74:45

>> This is the are you doing?

74:47

>> Just eat just eat some meat.

74:49

>> Yeah. Well, eat something like carnivore

74:50

bars or those carnivore snacks are

74:52

delicious. It's just beef and salt.

74:55

>> That's all those carnivore bar those

74:57

snacks are. It's like a beef pastry.

75:00

>> Good.

75:00

>> It's not even like jerky. It's chewy.

75:02

It's delicious. So, this is a fat sub

75:04

lab engineered fat substitute called

75:07

EPG, manufactured by a littleknown

75:09

Indianapolis based company called

75:11

Epogee. After tinkering with the product

75:13

formulation, the Fugals set up a website

75:15

in 2024 and began promoting the bars at

75:17

local bodybuilding shows and farmers

75:19

markets.

75:20

>> It's just an article about the

75:21

>> right. So, what does it say that stuff

75:23

does?

75:24

>> Well, I'm

75:26

>> so find out what that stuff. It's a fat

75:28

substitute. Yeah,

75:29

>> but it does something where your body

75:32

doesn't digest the fat. Like it doesn't

75:35

turn into calories.

75:36

>> This is promoting them. This is making

75:37

it sound great.

75:38

>> Yeah. There's 58 other mentions of VPG

75:39

anymore.

75:40

>> Yeah. This is making it sound like, oh,

75:41

they're the it's the best thing ever.

75:42

They're not mentioning the farts.

75:44

>> Well, this is probably promoting it.

75:45

>> Yeah, it is. Yeah.

75:46

>> Oh, no. This is about the lawsuit. Oh,

75:49

>> a better Ostra. At the time, fat was the

75:52

big culprit for heart disease, which

75:54

it's not. Undigestible. Oster was

75:57

undigestible. That was its key

75:59

attribute. It passed right through the

76:01

digestive tract. Therefore, wouldn't

76:03

result in body fat. The problem was its

76:06

low melting point in the body, which led

76:08

to an infamously polite phrase printed

76:10

on the wow labels may cause abdominal

76:14

cramping and loose stools.

76:16

>> Yeah, people were this Pringles

76:18

or something, I think.

76:19

>> Well, this stuff didn't give me loose

76:21

stools, but it did did give me like the

76:23

devil was farting out of my But

76:25

I got to tell you, is that sometimes

76:26

fun?

76:27

>> Farts?

76:28

>> Yeah. Like when you have a fart that

76:29

sounds like a symphony?

76:31

>> Like when you're old and you start

76:33

having new farts? I kind of like it. I'm

76:34

just like, how? I still got it.

76:36

>> Well, this was just like for me it was a

76:38

warning sign. My body was like, "Hey,

76:40

this

76:40

>> I think it's a warning sign for other

76:41

people too, Joe."

76:43

>> Um, yeah. Right. Anybody else knew me?

76:45

So, what is the problem with that stuff?

76:49

>> Okay.

76:53

and problems.

76:55

>> I guess

76:59

>> that's not good.

76:59

>> So that was the thing they were trying

77:01

to block other people from using it.

77:03

>> Bloating, gas, and diarrhea. Yeah.

77:04

>> Yeah. Bloating, gas, and diarrhea due to

77:07

sugar, alcohol,

77:08

>> laxative effect. Wow.

77:09

>> And the non-digestible fat substitute.

77:11

That's it. Uh which are poorly absorbed

77:14

and can have a laxative effect,

77:16

especially in larger amounts. The

77:18

company recommending limiting intake to

77:19

two bars daily to minimize discomfort.

77:22

>> Wait, wait, wait. Can we stop talking

77:23

about this? I love that they say

77:24

minimize, not eliminate. There's no food

77:27

where you're like, you know, if you eat

77:28

too much,

77:30

>> you're going to definitely have

77:30

discomfort.

77:31

>> Who's eating two of these things

77:32

a day?

77:34

>> I'm sure people

77:35

>> I know, but I mean, like after the

77:36

farts, wouldn't you be like, hey,

77:38

>> and but it's not only the farts is the

77:40

distension,

77:41

>> the inflammation.

77:42

>> Yeah. Do you have that bloated feeling?

77:44

For some people, what but you know why

77:46

they would choose something like this is

77:47

they want all that protein with 150

77:50

calories and they'll just take the

77:51

farts.

77:52

>> Yeah. Well, I mean look at whey is not

77:54

digestible. That's the standard protein

77:56

for bodybuilders.

77:57

>> Yeah, but it doesn't bother me.

77:58

>> Yeah, but a lot of people weigh not

78:00

break down.

78:01

>> Yeah, I have zero problem with way.

78:03

>> I can't do way.

78:04

>> I was getting brain fog.

78:06

A little bit.

78:07

>> Interesting. Huh.

78:08

>> Maybe I'm something's wrong with my

78:09

brain. I don't know. Well, you might

78:11

have like a like some sort of a, you

78:14

know, a milk allergy or something.

78:16

>> That's possible.

78:17

>> Who the hell knows? But the point is I

78:18

switched to the whole meat protein and

78:21

that's

78:21

>> something like carnivore snacks or those

78:23

carnivore bars. That's the solution. Get

78:26

those and that way you're you don't have

78:28

to even think. It's just food and your

78:30

body treats it like food. It feels like

78:31

food when you eat it. It doesn't feel

78:33

like

78:33

>> It's just hard for me to get enough

78:34

calories in a day for what I need.

78:36

>> What are you trying to do?

78:37

>> I'm doing lean gains. Lean gains. Yeah.

78:40

What does that mean?

78:41

>> So, you're keeping the same body fat,

78:42

but you're slowly putting on weight. So,

78:44

it's really a tight rope.

78:45

>> Okay. So, you're in you're involved in

78:47

that again. I know you bailed on

78:49

bodybuilding type activities.

78:51

>> Well, no, I still go to the gym, but

78:52

>> but you're trying to get jacked.

78:54

>> I think I'm in good shape.

78:55

>> But you're trying to get jacked.

78:56

>> I don't know what. Okay. Yeah.

78:58

>> I don't know why you're doing that. I

79:00

didn't do that. What do you mean?

79:01

>> I'm just asking. Are you trying to get

79:02

jacked?

79:02

>> I I Okay, that seems like a kind of

79:04

question that you cornering me in the

79:06

gym say. What do you mean by trying to

79:08

get Oh, no. It's a normal thing for

79:10

people that are trying to get swole.

79:12

You're trying to get like big muscles.

79:14

>> I am trying to put on as much mass as I

79:18

can while maintaining a somewhat lean

79:20

build.

79:21

>> What are you doing like as far as your

79:23

workouts?

79:23

>> I go to gym four days a week. I

79:26

>> What are you doing with your workout?

79:27

What kind of workouts?

79:27

>> I do a bro split. Don't make fun of me.

79:29

>> No, there's nothing wrong with a bro

79:30

split.

79:30

>> There's a bro There's nothing wrong.

79:32

>> Nothing wrong with it. Works.

79:34

>> Yeah, but I'm not doing legs because my

79:35

legs are already too big for my jeans.

79:37

>> What? Yeah,

79:38

>> get stretchy jeans.

79:40

>> I I have 30 pairs of jeans. I don't need

79:42

to get more jeans. Point being, my

79:44

>> But do you have regular jeans that are

79:45

made out of cotton or do you get jeans

79:47

that have flex in them?

79:48

>> I have 30 pairs. So, there's a mix. But

79:50

point being, my legs are great. I'm

79:52

Russian. Russians have great leg DNA.

79:54

>> So, you don't work out your legs at all?

79:56

You're going to get an imbalance.

79:57

>> How?

79:58

>> Also, if you work out your legs, your

80:00

whole body will grow.

80:01

>> I I That's true. And And you'll put up

80:03

more pounds on the scale. The point

80:05

being my I'm already at the point

80:06

marginal with most of my jeans and it

80:09

and they're not they're not skinny

80:11

jeans.

80:11

>> Let me see your legs.

80:12

>> I'll you want I How am I going to show

80:14

you my legs?

80:14

>> Just stand up. Let me see your legs of

80:16

your jeans.

80:18

>> Those are not too big. That is

80:19

ridiculous.

80:20

>> No, no, no. I don't need to be No, no,

80:22

no, no, no.

80:23

>> Hold on. I will I will send you a photo

80:26

of my legs and you're going to

80:27

apologize. My legs are great.

80:28

>> Okay.

80:29

>> They're not chicken legs.

80:30

>> I believe you. They don't look like

80:31

chicken legs. chicken leg,

80:32

>> but I don't think you should be

80:33

concerned about them getting bigger.

80:34

First of all, it takes a lot to get your

80:36

legs much larger. Takes a lot like

80:39

you're going to have to really push past

80:40

like some severe discomfort.

80:43

>> I I'm not disputing that. But point is

80:45

they're already marginal with my

80:47

clothes. And I think

80:48

>> you got new clothes. You've got money.

80:50

Listen, you got to balance. You got to

80:52

keep your body balanced. Like that's why

80:54

you should do legs. Like you should

80:56

never just do upper body.

80:57

>> Joe, I am nowhere at the point where my

80:59

upper body is too big for my legs. Well,

81:01

it's not that you should condition both

81:03

of them together.

81:04

>> Okay?

81:04

>> It's like you want to have a body that

81:06

works together.

81:08

>> My body is fine. I'm not going to be

81:10

body shamed on this show.

81:11

>> I'm not body shaming you. I'm talking

81:12

about functional.

81:13

>> What function? Going up the stairs,

81:15

>> anything you have to do. If you have to

81:17

pick something up and move it, if you're

81:19

not working your legs, then all that

81:21

stuff in your hips, all that stuff, all

81:23

all the surrounding tissue, all that

81:25

stuff is not getting the exercise it

81:27

deserves while you're working out your

81:29

upper body.

81:29

>> Fine. Point being, my legs are perfectly

81:32

fine and strong and it was hard for me

81:35

to get the calories I need. That's all

81:37

I'm saying here.

81:38

>> So, um, how many calories you What are

81:40

you trying to do a day?

81:40

>> I I think it's like 3200.

81:42

>> Okay.

81:42

>> Which is not nothing.

81:44

>> That's a good meal for me.

81:46

>> That's a lot of calories.

81:48

>> Yeah, I guess.

81:49

>> What do you mean? You don't think that's

81:50

a lot?

81:50

>> I eat a lot.

81:51

>> If you're eating clean, 3200's a lot.

81:53

>> Okay.

81:55

>> Yeah, I guess. Yeah. So, 3200 calories.

81:58

So, but you're trying to stay lean and

82:02

um are you on testosterone replacement

82:04

or anything like that?

82:04

>> I don't know what you're talking about.

82:06

>> Okay, you are good. That's good.

82:09

Peptides. Any peptides?

82:11

>> You know what I tried? I tried

82:13

>> Okay, good.

82:14

>> I tried glow.

82:15

>> What's glow?

82:17

>> Oh, well, well, well. Mister does a skip

82:20

leg day and he doesn't have polka dots

82:23

on his face. Someone does. You call

82:26

yourself a bro and you don't have polka

82:28

dots on your face. Glow is this new

82:31

peptide. It's a combination of three

82:33

things and it's called glow because it's

82:36

has heavy copper so it's blue. Glow.

82:40

Huh. You're welcome.

82:43

Interesting. Most people combine PBC157

82:46

TB500 and GHKCU without addressing

82:49

sequencing or inflammation first. Here's

82:53

what determines whether glow truly

82:54

works.

82:56

>> Interesting. Oh, okay. So, it's a

82:59

combination of all those things

83:00

together. Yeah.

83:01

>> Interesting.

83:02

>> Because I pulled my shoulder pretty bad

83:04

>> with your heavy lifting.

83:06

>> It wasn't I don't think it was heavy.

83:07

It's just probably I don't know what

83:08

happened.

83:09

>> You don't lift heavy.

83:10

>> I lift somewhat heavy, but not enough. I

83:12

I'm not going to lift heavy enough to um

83:14

provoke injury.

83:15

>> Okay.

83:15

>> I think that's that's kind of foolish,

83:17

especially at my age.

83:18

>> It is. But if you want to gain weight,

83:19

>> but I'm gaining weight. What kind of

83:21

You're not doing bench or anything, are

83:23

you? You do bench press.

83:24

>> Why? Why wouldn't I do bench press?

83:25

>> Why wouldn't you? Yeah, because it's

83:26

terrible for your shoulders.

83:28

>> Well, I do dumbbell bench.

83:30

>> That's slightly better for your

83:31

shoulders. Okay.

83:32

>> But that activity of having a lot of

83:34

weight down here,

83:35

>> I'm only putting up 70s. That's not that

83:36

much.

83:37

>> It's a lot for you.

83:38

>> Okay.

83:39

>> When all that weight back here when

83:41

you're right here, it puts tremendous

83:43

strength.

83:43

>> So, what should I do for pecs?

83:45

>> You could do dips. Dips are fantastic

83:47

for it. Um, you know, uh, don't go past

83:50

90 degrees. You can once you condition

83:53

your shoulders to like be able to do it,

83:55

but dips are good. Weighted dips are

83:56

really good. Um, there's stuff that you

83:59

could do like just kettle bells will I I

84:01

don't do any chest exercises other than

84:03

dips.

84:04

>> Really?

84:04

>> Yeah. I do a lot of kettle bells. Most

84:07

of my exercises are full body motion

84:09

stuff. Almost everything. I do a lot of

84:12

uh snatches,

84:14

a lot of cleans, a lot of uh like

84:17

alternating cleans, a lot of renegade

84:19

rows. Everything I do is kettle bells.

84:21

>> All I do is I know someone who's really

84:24

knows this stuff and I follow orders.

84:26

Like that's literally good. That's good

84:28

too. My concern is always functional

84:30

movement. My concern is always I want my

84:32

body to work as one unit. I don't like

84:34

isolating things. I I think I do a lot

84:37

of compounds like like uh incined

84:39

dumbbell incline bench is is one example

84:41

or uh I don't even remember what the the

84:43

other kind of stuff.

84:44

>> But if you have shoulder problems and

84:45

you're benching I there's a lot of

84:47

people I know that just have a

84:48

completely eliminated benching from

84:50

>> Is that right? Okay. Huh.

84:51

>> Especially heavy benching.

84:52

>> It only resolved this week. Thank God.

84:54

>> But you know what? It won't like if

84:57

you're doing kettle bells. That's the

84:59

weird thing about kettle bells. It

85:00

increases the strength of all your

85:02

activities. Like they found that people

85:03

that do snatches uh it increased their

85:06

V2 max and it increased their ability to

85:08

do chin-ups.

85:09

>> I did used to do kettle bells some I had

85:11

it one of the lifts in my workout and I

85:14

pulled out my back once something so

85:16

fierce. It was a temporary like like

85:18

almost like a cramp but it was very very

85:20

scary.

85:20

>> Do you remember what the exercise was?

85:22

>> Yeah. I was doing the when you're

85:23

bending over and you swing it over your

85:24

head.

85:24

>> Snatch.

85:25

>> Yeah. Yeah.

85:26

>> Yeah. The Well, the key to that is

85:27

warm-ups. Do you warm up a lot?

85:29

>> No.

85:29

>> Or should you?

85:30

>> No. I do warm-ups with the with the

85:31

weights. It's like I'll I'll do I'll my

85:32

first set will be 40% of my working set.

85:35

>> What I would recommend is you got to

85:38

especially as you get older, you really

85:39

have to warm your body up. And one of

85:40

the things that I do is I always do 10

85:42

minutes on the Airdine bike, get

85:44

everything like slightly sweaty. Then I

85:46

do a lot of jump rope. I get everything

85:48

fired up. And then I do a lot of

85:51

mobility exercises. I do like body

85:54

twists. I do these things like you wave.

85:56

I get down to the bottom and I wave all

85:58

the way up and I bend backwards and I go

86:00

forward. I do a lot of twists. I get

86:02

everything loose. And then I start with

86:05

push-ups and bodyweight squats. I do 100

86:08

push-ups, 100 body weightight squats,

86:09

and that's my warmup. So, all that

86:11

stuff. By the time I'm done with all

86:13

that stuff, now everything's warm, and

86:15

now I can start working out.

86:16

>> How many days a week do you lift or work

86:18

out?

86:18

>> Well, I work out almost every day. Okay.

86:20

>> Occasionally, I'll take a day off, but I

86:21

work out almost every day. And then with

86:24

lifting, it's almost every day. It

86:26

depends on what I'm doing. And if I'm

86:27

hitting the bag, generally I don't I

86:30

don't lift weights the days I hit the

86:32

bag. So that's like maybe two or three

86:33

days a week. Um so the other two days a

86:36

week it I alternate between stuff like

86:40

body weight stuff like pull-ups,

86:42

chin-ups, dips. Uh

86:45

I do uh L pull-ups where you know you uh

86:49

stick your legs out straight so you're

86:51

working your abs at the same time you're

86:53

doing that.

86:53

>> I do uh a bunch of different things.

86:57

lower back stuff, a lot of back

86:59

extensions, reverse hyper stuff, sit-ups

87:02

on that GHB machine where you're going

87:04

all the way down. And

87:06

>> yeah,

87:07

>> I'm just happy with the results and I'm

87:09

of the if it ain't broke, don't fix it

87:11

>> uh uh mindset.

87:12

>> Well, that's good.

87:13

>> Yeah.

87:13

>> Well, as long as you're happy with the

87:14

results, I would just avoid a lot of

87:17

heavy lifting with uh bench press. I

87:19

think bench press is uh so many people I

87:22

know that have their shoulders up

87:23

their shoulders up through bench

87:25

press. And I know a lot of bros are

87:26

going to get angry.

87:27

>> Yeah, I know. That's what I'm waiting

87:28

for. It's, oh my god,

87:29

>> how much do you bench, bro?

87:31

>> But here's the thing. Like, we did the

87:32

Sober October thing where uh you know,

87:35

we had the these these stupid fitness

87:37

challenges and then after Sober

87:39

October's over, we all got drunk. And so

87:42

then we went out to my gym and uh Ari,

87:46

Tom, and Bert were all trying to bench

87:48

225. And I don't bench at all. And I did

87:52

it 13 times. Like I I don't bench. And I

87:55

just

87:55

>> Ari could pull up two plates.

87:56

>> No, he couldn't do it. Okay, that was

87:57

No, they all got pinned.

87:58

>> Yeah, 225 is no joke.

88:00

>> Yeah, Burke can do it now, but back then

88:02

he wasn't lifted.

88:04

>> You can't casually do two plates.

88:06

>> Yeah,

88:06

>> no one can.

88:07

>> Yeah, but I did without ever benching. I

88:09

know.

88:09

>> No, but I mean like you're someone who

88:10

works out Saturday. I'm saying like if

88:11

you're next

88:14

crushed.

88:14

>> Yeah, of course. Wait, they thought they

88:15

could do it.

88:16

>> Bert did. Bert definitely

88:18

>> Bert's heavy, right? How much does B

88:19

weigh? He's like 250.

88:20

>> B's like 250. Yeah,

88:22

>> Tom was bigger at the time, too. that I

88:24

okay was I mean it must have just

88:26

collapsed there was no they got they got

88:28

crushed but the point is it's like doing

88:31

kettle bells will help all those other

88:33

things

88:34

>> because it just your whole body gets

88:36

strong and it's not an unusual motion to

88:39

do that you know you could do it

88:42

>> yeah I just I I like the weights

88:45

>> weights are great there's nothing wrong

88:47

with weights I just would be careful

88:48

about benching

88:50

>> even dumb I think dumbbell benching is

88:52

probably better than barbell benching

88:54

And I just think there's other ways to

88:56

work your chest.

88:57

>> Okay,

88:58

>> I'll talk to Monster Russ. That's my

89:01

guy.

89:01

>> And there's a lot of people that don't

89:02

even agree with dips. Like my my

89:04

orthopedic surgeon that told me that I

89:06

need to get my soldier shoulder operated

89:08

on 15 years ago and I never did. Uh he

89:11

was like, "Got to stop doing dips." I

89:13

go, "Why? Really?" He goes, "Everybody I

89:14

know that have their shoulder up

89:15

did it through dips." I go, "Well, that

89:17

doesn't mean anything, right?"

89:18

>> What? Like I'm looking at him. I'm

89:20

looking at him and his body. Like look

89:22

at your Shut the up.

89:23

>> And look at all these gymnasts. Like

89:24

they do dips 24/7.

89:25

>> Yeah, exactly. Just build up to it.

89:28

Don't do too much. All of it is like

89:30

overworking your body. You have to like

89:33

slow progression is the the key.

89:35

>> There is something fun about I I do love

89:37

doing dips because you feel like you're

89:38

flying. There's something about it when

89:40

you're just Yeah. Yeah.

89:42

>> What can I say?

89:43

>> But that's a great chest exercise. Dips

89:46

are Yeah. Along with uh the push-ups. Do

89:49

100 push-ups a day and then do dips. But

89:51

you're the you okay, we could talk about

89:53

this also. You're the one. Can I tell

89:54

you what you said to me at the

89:56

mothership about this?

89:57

>> What I said?

89:58

>> You said you can't be jacked and be

90:00

funny.

90:01

>> Well, you can, but you can't show it.

90:03

>> That I meant like you you like at a

90:06

certain point you're too jacked. There's

90:08

a cost.

90:09

>> Well, there's definitely a cost to the

90:11

way you look. Like you look intimidating

90:13

and that's not that funny for people,

90:15

>> right?

90:16

>> Yeah. And Roseanne was telling me or not

90:18

just when she was starting out, she lost

90:20

all this weight and people stopped

90:21

laughing.

90:22

>> Ah, there's plenty of skinny funny

90:23

women.

90:24

>> Not not in 1981.

90:27

>> You think are you calling Rosan Bar a

90:29

liar?

90:29

>> No, I just don't think that's what it

90:30

was. I I've seen people lose weight and

90:33

still be hilarious. It's just like

90:35

people there is a mentality that people

90:37

have. Like Kevin James, his

90:38

agent said this to him once. I got

90:40

furious. Kevin was losing weight. He was

90:42

trying to get in shape. He was really

90:43

self-conscious about his weight. and his

90:45

agent said, "Kevin, when you lose

90:47

weight, you're losing roles."

90:49

>> But that's true, though, because he's

90:50

he's very much a specific character.

90:53

>> So, what? He could do anything.

90:54

He's a talented guy. It's not like if he

90:57

lost the weight, he wouldn't be funny

90:58

anymore. That dude's funny.

91:00

>> Hold on, hold on. I'm not disrespecting

91:02

Kevin James in any way. Mad respect for

91:05

him. Point Ball Cop, the greatest comedy

91:08

of all time.

91:08

>> It's a funny movie.

91:09

>> I I believe you. I haven't seen it.

91:11

Point being, he is very much in people's

91:14

mind a certain specific thing. Right.

91:16

Right. So if Kevin James stopped being

91:18

that thing, I think it's going to be a

91:21

lot hard for a lot of normies to come

91:23

over with him to a different paradigm.

91:25

That's all I'm saying. Come on.

91:27

>> It would be a challenge, but I think

91:28

he'd still be hilarious. I don't I do

91:31

not think that he is limited by his

91:33

weight.

91:34

>> You don't Okay. If Will Frell got like

91:36

Hugh Jackman, do you think he'd have the

91:38

same roles?

91:39

>> He would. He would ne wouldn't

91:41

necessarily have the same roles. He

91:42

would still be very funny.

91:43

>> Yes, he would. But you know perfectly

91:45

well that there's lots.

91:46

>> It would be weird because he would be

91:48

super jacked. Like if he got the rock

91:50

jacked,

91:51

>> right?

91:51

>> It would be weird.

91:52

>> People don't know how to deal with that

91:54

stuff.

91:55

>> Mhm.

91:55

>> So the agent's not wrong.

91:57

>> Well, the agent's still not looking out

91:58

for Kevin's health.

92:00

>> Was How big was he that big? He was big.

92:02

>> He was big and he didn't like it and he

92:03

was worried.

92:04

>> Yeah. Okay. That's very fair.

92:06

>> Yeah.

92:06

>> But you don't have to go from You could

92:08

go slimmer. You don't have to go to

92:09

like, you know, running peptides and

92:12

stuff,

92:13

>> right? You don't have to get jacked.

92:15

>> Yeah.

92:15

>> But maybe he wants to. You can. It could

92:18

be done.

92:18

>> I I mean, what's that guy who claims

92:21

he's natty? That Indian guy

92:24

>> who was in I think the Avengers or

92:26

something.

92:26

>> Oh, Camille.

92:27

>> Yeah. Was it him?

92:29

>> I don't think he claims he's natty. Does

92:31

he?

92:32

>> They do special.

92:33

>> It's special exercises, Joe. They just

92:36

come on. Does he really? He doesn't even

92:38

claim he's on testosterone replacement.

92:40

>> Don't you know that if you just do

92:42

lateral raises?

92:43

>> Uh,

92:44

>> yeah, he claims that. He He has to. They

92:46

all have to.

92:47

>> I don't know if that's real.

92:49

>> Yes, it does. Look him up.

92:50

>> He did a very funny bit about people

92:52

being angry at him for getting in shape.

92:54

>> Oh, okay.

92:55

>> Yeah, he did a funny bit in his standup.

92:57

His recent standup special about that.

92:59

Does he claim that he's natural?

93:02

>> That's weird.

93:02

>> Wait, the one I'm thinking of is in a

93:03

standup. The one from the movies.

93:05

>> Yeah, he's a stand up. He started out as

93:07

a standup.

93:07

>> Oh, good for him. Okay. Camil Nani,

93:09

right? Yeah. Yeah. He started out as a

93:11

standup. Yeah.

93:12

>> And he's doing standup again. He just

93:14

released a special.

93:14

>> What's his name? Claims Daddy, too. The

93:16

Thor. They all do.

93:17

>> No, that guy claims daddy.

93:21

>> They have to.

93:21

>> Chris Hemsworth.

93:23

>> I think he does.

93:23

>> Get the out of here. That guy

93:25

gained like 60 lbs of solid muscle.

93:27

>> Well, that's cuz he's doing lateral

93:29

raises, you fool.

93:29

>> Oh, I didn't know.

93:30

>> And you What? How do you know? You've

93:32

never seen him put a needle in his ass.

93:34

He has he has personal trainers that

93:35

teach him the second exercises.

93:37

>> You're right.

93:38

>> I've been on testosterone replacement

93:39

for a long time and I highly recommend

93:40

it to anybody who wants to stay in

93:42

shape.

93:42

>> How long have you been on it?

93:43

>> Since I was like almost 40. I started

93:46

with like the cream and then uh well I

93:49

noticed my my I was you know I was

93:52

training a lot. That was back then I was

93:54

doing jiu-jitsu four or five days a week

93:55

and I was lifting.

93:56

>> That's harder than the body. is hard of

93:58

course and you're always tired and you

94:00

know uh I had a doctor that specialized

94:03

in that stuff. It's one of those things

94:05

was

94:06

>> hormone replacement therapy and and

94:08

doing a lot of it for people that had

94:09

had head injuries because people with

94:11

head injuries uh people that have had uh

94:14

CTE and a lot of like you have damage to

94:16

your pituitary gland. A lot of times

94:18

your brain is not producing testosterone

94:20

at the level it's supposed to.

94:21

>> Oh, is that right? Okay. Yeah. Your

94:22

pituitary gland gets damaged from

94:25

repeated head trauma. That's one of the

94:26

things that causes depression in a lot

94:28

of people that have had head trauma is

94:30

like your body's not making hormones

94:31

anymore. So, you're just like you're

94:33

lethargic all the time. It's a

94:35

factor. His statements, he described a

94:37

year-long process with professional

94:39

trainers, nutritionists funded by

94:41

Marvel, daily workouts, precise calorie

94:43

tracking, no refined sugar, and minimum

94:46

fats. In his 2019 Instagram post, he

94:48

emphasized the resources required but

94:51

never mentioned peeds, steroids, or

94:54

denied their use. So he never denied it.

94:56

>> Okay. He didn't deny. So go. Okay. I I

94:57

take it back. I apologize.

94:59

>> Yeah. His from a softer build at age 41.

95:02

For sure he got on testosterone.

95:05

There was a lot of people that were

95:06

giving me about being on

95:08

testosterone like 15 years ago that are

95:09

on it now.

95:10

>> Yeah. No disrespect to him.

95:12

>> Well, there's nothing wrong with it. I

95:13

just said I do it.

95:14

>> No, that's the point at a certain point.

95:16

>> People It's just really funny when

95:17

people are yelling him, "Oh, you're

95:19

cheating." It's like cheating for what?

95:20

Where's the test?

95:21

>> People are silly. People are silly and

95:23

they're just they mad that he looks he

95:25

didn't look like he looked like them. He

95:27

was doughy and now all of a sudden he

95:29

looks like a bro and they don't like it.

95:30

>> Yeah. But the thing that's kind of crazy

95:32

is now the kids in high school are

95:33

hopping on.

95:34

>> That's crazy because you're going to

95:35

destroy your endocrine system.

95:37

>> And also if you're peaking at 18 that's

95:39

not going to be good for your mental

95:40

health.

95:40

>> Well, it's not just that. It's just like

95:42

it kills your dick. It kills your you

95:44

when you put a bunch of exogenous

95:46

testosterone in your body. Your body

95:48

stops making testosterone. And so say if

95:50

you're on a cycle for like a month, two

95:52

months, it will take you four months for

95:55

your body to get back to normal. It

95:56

takes I think that's the ratio most

95:58

people if you're not taking like

96:00

clomophene or any of these other things

96:02

or hCG or something that naturally ramps

96:04

up your testosterone. Um I think they

96:08

think that the number is like double the

96:10

time that you run.

96:12

If you keep running cycles, it gets

96:14

harder and harder

96:14

>> 100% because your body starts relying on

96:16

it and your endocrine system shuts down.

96:19

And it's like, why do we have to make

96:20

testosterone? This guy's got more than a

96:22

normal human ever has,

96:23

>> right?

96:24

>> And so we just stop.

96:25

>> And I think these numbers are through

96:26

the roof with the kids now.

96:27

>> Well, they all want to be like an

96:29

influencer. They all want to be jacked.

96:31

You know, it's just like you don't

96:32

understand the harm you're doing to your

96:34

body. But it's also the kind of thing

96:36

where it's just like you shouldn't be

96:38

comparing yourself to the guy on

96:39

Instagram,

96:40

>> right,

96:40

>> or the gym. You compare yourself to the

96:42

guy in the plane next time you're at an

96:44

airport. That's what I do. That's what

96:45

kind of helped me when I get on a

96:47

flight. I'm like, how many of these

96:48

people, especially my age, are in good

96:50

shape? It's going to be one out of 100.

96:52

>> Well, the other thing is there's

96:53

especially when you're young, there's

96:54

plenty of stuff that you can do that's

96:56

natural and super beneficial and not

96:59

dangerous. Like creatine creatine is

97:02

tremendous.

97:04

You're not going to be a name

97:05

>> a name.

97:05

>> No one's going to notice you on

97:06

Instagram. That's the thing. They're

97:08

chasing the fame.

97:10

>> Oh, that's so sad.

97:11

>> It's very sad. It's very It's I mean,

97:13

some of these guys look better than

97:14

Schwarzenegger and they're 17.

97:16

It's insane. But it's just like what's

97:18

your future going to

97:19

>> Well, you're not going to have kids,

97:21

right? You're going to be sterile.

97:22

You're not going to have any sperm.

97:24

>> But that, you know, there was that thing

97:26

about they asked Olympians, would you

97:29

give up like 20 years of your life if

97:31

you're guaranteed a gold? And like 90%

97:32

of them said yes.

97:33

>> Yeah. Like

97:34

>> I know. Well, look at Lindsay Vaughn. I

97:36

mean, she knew that she had a blown ACL

97:37

and she still skied.

97:39

>> Is that right?

97:39

>> Yeah. She blew her ACL out like a couple

97:42

of weeks before the Olympics and still

97:44

decided to compete and then shattered

97:47

her leg with this horrible compound

97:49

fracture.

97:50

>> Oh my god.

97:51

>> Oh, you didn't know about that? No.

97:52

>> Oh yeah. She had to get airlifted. She's

97:54

had multiple surgeries. She's for

97:57

a long time. Her leg broke in multiple

97:59

places. She's got rods and stuff in it.

98:01

And leg breaks are really scary because

98:04

your body doesn't necessarily always

98:06

heal from those. Like sometimes the

98:09

blood flow is not appropriate. It's not

98:11

it's not what you need. And people get

98:13

their legs amputated from those things.

98:15

>> Jesus.

98:16

>> Yeah. Femur breaks are super dangerous.

98:18

>> I've never broken a bone and I'm part of

98:21

Ever.

98:21

>> I know, right?

98:22

>> That's crazy.

98:23

>> Yeah.

98:23

>> Nothing.

98:24

>> A part of me is like, is this something

98:25

I want to try before I die? Like it's

98:27

sucks.

98:28

>> Does it? I But s How bad is it?

98:30

>> Well, I broke my arm when I was seven. I

98:33

broke my forearm right here. I fell off

98:35

a monkey bar and snapped my forearm in

98:37

half. That healed perfect. But when your

98:39

kid, you're a kid, they just put me in a

98:41

cast and like six weeks later I was good

98:42

to go. Um, I broke my fibula, the small

98:46

bone of my tibia in uh, sparring. A

98:50

friend of mine threw a back kick at the

98:52

same time. I was throwing a kick and his

98:54

heel hit my my fibula and it cracked

98:57

that. But that was only a crack. I

98:59

actually competed with that. I put

99:01

soccer pads on it. those plastic soccer

99:04

I taped soccer instep pads that part of

99:07

my I didn't tell anybody. Oh, okay.

99:09

>> Because it was a taekwondo tournament so

99:11

I had pants on and so I put like a

99:14

regular um these soccer pads. I taped

99:18

them to my calf and then I put the foam

99:21

one on over that and I competed.

99:24

>> Huh. Okay.

99:24

>> I won the states that way.

99:27

>> Okay, great. Were you a national

99:29

champion? I won uh American Open and I

99:32

came in second place in the US Cup

99:34

against the national champion and I

99:35

think I should have beat him. I got a

99:37

bad decision. Um but I never won the

99:39

national championships. But at the time

99:41

that I was getting ready to try to win

99:43

the national championships in ' 88, the

99:45

problem was I had already been

99:47

disillusioned because I had started

99:49

kickboxing. Okay.

99:50

>> And I'd already started like realizing

99:52

there's a lot of holes in taekwond do.

99:53

>> Well, taekwondo is like with the rise of

99:55

UFC, it's really not good. It is if you

99:58

know all the other stuff because those

100:00

kicks are devastating. They're

100:02

devastating. And a guy who's a really

100:04

good kicker like a Michael Venom Paige

100:06

for for instance who's a karate

100:08

specialist who learned how to defend

100:10

takedowns, they're really dangerous

100:11

because they have the ability to cover

100:13

distance and kick at range. And if

100:15

you're not a good kicker and you don't

100:17

recognize what this guy's doing, they

100:18

could you up, right?

100:20

>> But there was so many holes in Taekwondo

100:22

when it came to like punching to the

100:23

face and then leg kicks. I didn't

100:26

realize like how many holes there were

100:27

in it until I started really getting

100:29

into kickboxing. So I was by the time 88

100:32

rolled around, I was already

100:33

disillusioned.

100:33

>> Huh. Okay.

100:35

>> You know, and then I was already

100:36

starting to do stand up, so I was like,

100:38

what am I doing with my life, you know?

100:40

>> Oh, I got a bone to pick with you.

100:41

>> Oh, I'm excited.

100:43

>> Oh, you you set me up perfectly. Okay.

100:45

>> You set me up perfectly. I was I Thank

100:47

you, Joe Rogan. Bridge of Fetesy sat in

100:51

this very chair, the chair I'm farting

100:53

in right now because of my I had some

100:56

vintage Oolene chips from eBay and it's

100:59

this chair is going to be a disaster

101:01

chair. I know.

101:02

>> Um and she told you that I'm starting to

101:06

do standup and you said that's great.

101:08

He's so funny. He could open for me. And

101:11

then I was all excited about this

101:12

opportunity and I te and I wait a few

101:14

weeks because I was scared to like

101:16

whatever and you text me about some meme

101:18

and I go

101:18

>> first of all I don't think I said you

101:20

could open for me. I highly doubt I said

101:22

that.

101:22

>> You did but that's fine. I'm not holding

101:23

you to it. I'm just saying you said

101:24

that. That's fine. Um

101:26

>> maybe I was joking.

101:27

>> I'm not holding you to it. You were just

101:28

encouraging. Okay, let's just leave it

101:30

there.

101:30

>> I think you're very funny.

101:31

>> Okay. You text me that's a meme. I go,

101:33

"Hey, I'm going to do standup." You go,

101:35

"You absolutely should. You're very

101:36

funny." I go, "I have my set. What

101:38

should I do next?" Do you know what you

101:39

said?

101:39

>> What? Nothing.

101:41

>> Yeah.

101:42

>> You left me unreg.

101:42

>> You're on your own,

101:43

>> What do you mean?

101:44

>> Cuz you got to figure it out. It's like,

101:46

you know, I want to start fighting. What

101:48

should I do? You know what to do. Go to

101:50

the gym.

101:51

>> Figure it out. Start training. Don't I

101:53

can't hold anybody's hand. Standup is

101:55

too hard for you to help someone in the

101:57

beginning. You've got to actually want

101:59

to do it. So, you got to go to open

102:01

mics. You got to do standup. You got to

102:02

get ready, put a set together, record

102:04

it, review it.

102:05

>> Done it.

102:05

>> Okay.

102:06

>> Yeah.

102:06

>> So, you're doing standup all the time?

102:08

>> Not all. You're saying I should do it

102:09

all the You have to do it all the time.

102:11

It's like if you want to spar, you have

102:13

to spar every week.

102:14

>> Do you know what everyone told me who I

102:15

asked? Like I asked like 10 like big

102:18

name biggest bigish people who are names

102:19

and they all said the same thing. You

102:20

have to bomb.

102:22

>> Yeah. Well, bombing is good because it

102:24

lets you realize how difficult it is and

102:26

then you don't like the feeling. So you

102:28

work really hard

102:28

>> and also you know you have to be ready

102:30

for that moment and how to recover from

102:31

it.

102:32

>> Yeah. Yeah. Failure failure I think in

102:34

everything is good. Losing is important.

102:37

It's very important. It it it motivates

102:38

you to do better. You know, people don't

102:40

like that feeling, but there all a lot

102:43

of uncomfortable feelings lead to growth

102:45

and that's why they're important.

102:46

>> That's true.

102:47

>> Heartbreak, losing a job, getting fired,

102:50

you know, all those things are

102:51

important.

102:52

>> Okay. Well,

102:52

>> yeah, standup's important to It's

102:54

important to have like bad sets.

102:57

>> I think you said bad sex.

102:58

>> Bad sets.

102:59

>> Yes, sex.

103:00

>> So, when was the last time you went up?

103:01

>> I haven't done it for a while because I

103:03

didn't know what to do.

103:04

>> Yeah. You got to do it a lot. It's got

103:05

to be something that you're dedicated

103:07

to. That's why I'm saying you can't just

103:09

>> say do. Okay. That's fair. That's very

103:12

fair. I've been talking to Ken. He's

103:13

been been very helpful.

103:15

>> Yeah. Just there's plenty of places we

103:17

could perform. I mean, Austin alone on

103:20

my street alone on Sixth Street is

103:22

there's like within a oneb block radius

103:24

like seven clubs.

103:25

>> I'm not arguing that.

103:26

>> I mean, this is the place. If you want

103:27

to do standup, this is the

103:29

place, man. I mean, it's incredible

103:30

right now.

103:32

>> Fair enough. I mean, my club alone has

103:34

two nights of open mic nights.

103:35

>> Is that true?

103:35

>> Uh-huh. Sunday and Monday night are both

103:37

open mic nights.

103:38

>> Okay. Then I'm going to sign up.

103:39

>> Yeah. We have a real development

103:40

program. The whole idea is like to make

103:42

it so that we have like a a real

103:44

foundation of people that are coming up

103:46

and that motivates all the people that

103:48

are already doing well. It's like, oh,

103:49

these guys are like really working hard

103:51

and it gets everybody excited about

103:53

working hard and then it motivates the

103:54

people at the top saying, hey, these

103:56

young guys are really good. And then

103:58

guys start getting specials and like Cam

104:00

Patterson just got on SNL. All these

104:02

things are happening for people from the

104:04

club. So it's like it's a great place.

104:06

>> Okay. No, that's fine. That's very fair.

104:08

>> Yeah, but it's not something that you

104:10

can kind of casually do every now and

104:12

again. You can, but you won't be as good

104:14

as you will be if you do it every week.

104:16

>> That's Ken said that as well. He's like,

104:18

you have to put in the time. This is not

104:20

something that you could do just on uh

104:22

uh weekends.

104:23

>> Yeah. can't like run around your block

104:26

once a month and think you can go do a

104:28

marathon,

104:29

>> right?

104:29

>> Yeah. You got to get into and you got to

104:32

the the thing about standup is like

104:35

you're making a mountain one layer of

104:37

paint at a time. It's it's not it's not

104:41

a quick process to become a standup.

104:43

Most people agree and this is not a hard

104:45

fast rule because it's depending upon

104:46

how much actual time you do and how much

104:49

focus and but the general rule is 10

104:52

years.

104:53

>> Really?

104:54

>> Yeah. The general rule is 10 years. Like

104:56

people don't really think of you as

104:57

being legit until you've been in it for

104:59

10 years.

105:00

>> I don't know that I have 10 years.

105:02

>> I don't know if anybody has 10 years. I

105:04

don't know if the human race has 10

105:06

years.

105:06

>> I I

105:07

>> You see those robots in China that are

105:08

doing kung fu?

105:10

>> Are there already?

105:10

>> Oh my god. They just did this

105:11

demonstration. this martial arts

105:13

demonstration with these robots on a

105:15

stage. I'm

105:16

>> It's crazy how how they move.

105:19

>> I'm more worried about if anyone can use

105:22

AI to engineer a boweapon.

105:25

>> Oh, that Yeah, that's real.

105:26

>> Because there's a I there was a piece a

105:28

guy, I forget his name, I apologize,

105:30

where he was he's one of these big AI

105:32

people, and he goes, "If you use the

105:33

paid for AI," he goes, "I can tell it to

105:36

write me code, and it also knows like

105:39

idiosyncratic preferences." So, it's

105:41

better than hiring a person and that's

105:43

today.

105:44

>> Yeah.

105:44

>> So, what's going to happen in two years,

105:47

three years? Like, how do you put guard

105:48

rails on that? I don't think you can.

105:50

>> I don't think you can. And there's a lot

105:52

of people that are resigning from a lot

105:54

of these companies that are saying we're

105:55

doomed.

105:56

>> Yeah.

105:57

>> Yeah.

105:57

>> I'm not a doom and gloom kind of guy,

106:00

but that I think is a much faster path

106:03

toward something happening than, you

106:06

know, robots, kung fu robots. Well,

106:08

there's also automated rep weapons,

106:11

weapon systems that are totally

106:13

autonomous. That's Yes, the government's

106:16

working on that. And I believe there was

106:18

an issue. See if you can find this with

106:20

one of the AI companies not willing to

106:24

partner with the U or not willing to do

106:27

something with autonomous weapons

106:30

programs. I think it's Anthropic.

106:33

>> Oh, wow.

106:33

>> Yeah, I think anthropic was like, uh, we

106:37

don't think that's good. And all the

106:38

other ones are like, "Let's go."

106:40

>> Holy Yeah.

106:41

>> Yeah. Well, the thing is, is China doing

106:43

that? They probably are. Anthropic is

106:45

clashing with the Pentagon over AI use.

106:47

Here's what each side wants. Anthropic's

106:50

relationship with the Department of

106:51

Defense is

106:53

>> uh is under review as the two sides

106:56

negotiate over how the company's AI

106:58

models can be used. Startup wants

107:00

assurance that its models will not be

107:01

used for autonomous weapons or mass

107:04

surveillance. Oh my god, these pop-ups

107:06

are brutal. Um, you, CNBC. Uh, the

107:11

DoD wants to use anthropic models for

107:13

all lawful use cases without limitation.

107:18

>> According to uh, Emil Michael, the under

107:21

secretary of war for research and

107:23

engineering.

107:25

>> Holy crap.

107:26

>> Yeah. So, this is what they're doing.

107:28

And

107:28

>> so, which is worse, autonomous weapons

107:30

or mass surveillance? I think it's mass

107:31

surveillance, don't they?

107:32

>> Both of them are terrible.

107:33

>> Yeah. Which is worse, though? Because

107:34

>> they work hand and glove. Both of them

107:36

are terrible. I mean, did you see Alex

107:39

Karp that that uh interview that he did

107:42

where he was talking about Palunteer and

107:44

he's like, "We're gonna, you know, and

107:46

occasionally kill people. We're going to

107:47

use it to kill people."

107:48

>> Yeah.

107:49

>> That's what he said.

107:50

>> Right. And Right. But he was like openly

107:52

saying, "Kill people." Like this is what

107:55

we're doing. Like what? But I I did you

107:59

see that big leak from Palunteer which I

108:02

don't know if it's been verified or not

108:04

where they were talking Kim.com was the

108:06

one who uh uh who dropped this.

108:08

>> Yes, I did see that Kim.com tweeted

108:11

about it but I didn't see if it was

108:12

verified. What did he say exactly?

108:14

>> I don't J if you could pull it was a

108:15

long it was a long long thing and it was

108:18

very because he said Palanter got

108:20

hacked. He said he doesn't have I don't

108:22

think it was verified that this was

108:24

legitimate, but these were the bullet

108:25

points he laid out and it was extremely

108:27

disturbing. I've it's not surprising

108:29

that a private company is going to be

108:31

more effective and efficient than the

108:32

government at implementing what the

108:34

government wants. A lot of the things

108:35

during co wasn't literally the

108:37

government. These corporations were more

108:38

than happy to impose these kind of you

108:40

know don't if you don't get the vaccine

108:42

so-called you're going to get fired.

108:43

>> Well, they were all having backdoor

108:45

deals.

108:45

>> Exactly. But they they were more than

108:47

happy to do it. They were they were

108:49

being incentivized,

108:50

>> right?

108:50

>> Which is crazy. But

108:53

>> the the thing about this AI stuff that

108:56

no one realizes except for the engineers

108:58

that are deeply invested in this is that

109:01

it's accelerating at this tremendously

109:03

rapid pace that they can't really

109:05

control. Chat GPT5. I was reading this

109:08

article. Chat GPT made chat GPT5.

109:13

They essentially tasked the AI to make a

109:16

better version of itself. Make sure

109:18

that's true.

109:19

>> I'm pretty sure that's what they're

109:20

saying.

109:20

>> Right now for free, if you put any photo

109:22

on Grom Imagine, it animates it and it

109:24

looks realistic.

109:26

>> Yeah.

109:26

>> Like instantly.

109:27

>> For free.

109:27

>> There's a video of me and Keano Reeves

109:29

doing kung fu in this room.

109:31

>> Like he's dressed up like John Wick, but

109:33

it looks real. I'm sure

109:34

>> it looks very real. It's like a scene

109:36

from John Wick. It's like we're we're

109:39

doing like movie style kung fu in this

109:41

room.

109:42

>> And the average person can't distinguish

109:44

between what is on their screen and what

109:45

is outside their window,

109:46

>> right? And for the human brain, they're

109:48

going to memor remember it and perceive

109:50

it as something that they had seen

109:52

before, right? It is a very scary thing.

109:54

I remember something that clicked in my

109:56

head. Survivor season one. So that was

109:57

like 2000, I think it was 2001.

109:59

>> They had the second to last episode.

110:01

There's four contestants left and they

110:03

go, "Next week on Survivor." And Sue

110:05

turns to Kelly and she goes, "We got to

110:07

vote out Richard."

110:08

>> And I was on a message board at the time

110:10

and one of the people go, they're like,

110:12

"Who do you think's going to be

110:13

eliminated?" One goes, "Oh, I think

110:14

they're going to vote out Richard. Did

110:15

you hear what Sue said? We all heard it.

110:18

This wasn't eavesdropping. This was a

110:20

sound clip that the editor left in.

110:22

There was nothing else to hear. In fact,

110:24

you could only hear what Sue said to

110:26

Kelly. And that was such a wakeup moment

110:28

for me. Like, holy people really

110:30

think they're on that beach and they

110:32

heard something they weren't supposed

110:33

to. It was it was

110:35

>> But you laugh. But there will be people

110:37

who tell you right now with a straight

110:39

face and I think they could pass a lie

110:41

detector test easily that Trump said we

110:44

should inject bleach and Trump said I'm

110:47

praising very fine people white

110:49

nationalists and you could play the tape

110:50

they will not perceive it. They're not

110:52

lying. Right.

110:53

>> And I think that's a big hurdle for a

110:55

lot of people to accept. People honestly

110:57

are perceiving things that you're not.

110:59

>> That's true. Yeah. And they're also only

111:02

looking at headlines or only looking at

111:04

narratives. They get a tweet, they read

111:06

the tweet. Oh my god, I can't believe

111:08

they're doing this and then they put it

111:09

down. They're too busy. They're not

111:11

going to do deep dives.

111:13

>> It's not that they're too busy. It's

111:14

that their preconception has been

111:15

validated. They think they're not

111:17

running a true false filter. They're

111:18

running an US them filter.

111:19

>> Right. That's right. That's right.

111:21

>> Trump's thousands of times the Epstein

111:22

files. There you go. What else do I need

111:24

to tell you?

111:24

>> That's it. Yeah. Very fine people on

111:26

both sides. I mean, Obama said that

111:27

during the campaign.

111:29

>> When he said that during the campaign,

111:30

I'm like, that's crazy.

111:32

>> Well, Biden said that was his reason for

111:33

running.

111:35

You don't remember that?

111:37

>> You see in the in the Epste file,

111:38

someone said that Biden's dead

111:40

>> and that saying that Epste's alive.

111:42

>> Yeah, that might be real.

111:44

>> I don't know how they pull that off.

111:46

>> Um,

111:47

>> I'm not here's the thing. I'm sorry to

111:48

interrupt you. Whenever I hear something

111:50

that's out there, I'm not saying it's

111:51

ridiculous. I always say to myself, what

111:53

steps would need to be taken for this to

111:55

be true? Right? So, if you're going to

111:57

keep Epstein alive, and he's obviously

111:59

extremely visible, his face and very

112:01

known, how do you keep that guy under

112:03

wraps? would be the question I would

112:05

have.

112:05

>> You move him to Israel and you get

112:07

plastic surgery.

112:09

>> You think so? That's it.

112:10

>> Yeah. Look, Renee Zelwigger looks

112:12

different.

112:13

>> That's true.

112:14

>> And she's a movie star. Like,

112:16

she kind of ruined her career by making

112:18

herself look prettier.

112:19

>> So, well, no, she got she looks Asian

112:21

now. She's got all those weird. No, she

112:24

got all those big cheeks and her eyes

112:25

are all like small now.

112:26

>> What did she do? Let's take a look at

112:27

>> She's all puffy faced. Yeah.

112:29

>> Like people said that Bradley Cooper did

112:31

something,

112:32

>> but he came in here. here. He looked

112:33

completely normal. It's just

112:35

weird pictures online. Like maybe one

112:38

day he was tired, one day really did

112:41

>> she did something. Bradley Cooper looks

112:44

exactly like Bradley Cooper to me. Yeah.

112:46

Okay.

112:47

>> Like she did something weird. She was so

112:50

cute.

112:50

>> She looks like that.

112:51

>> Look at her in 2009. She was so cute.

112:53

And then

112:53

>> who's that annoying lefty lady who's a

112:55

podcaster?

112:56

>> I don't know.

112:56

>> Yes, you do. The one who was a real

112:58

housewife and now she's like

112:59

>> Oh, yeah. I don't know her name, but

113:01

she's awful.

113:01

>> Yeah, she's a heel. She's does a great

113:03

job being a heel.

113:04

>> She's great at that. Everyone

113:05

lock them all up.

113:06

>> Right. Yeah. Yeah. She looks

113:08

anymore. And she's very angry.

113:09

>> That's who she looks like now.

113:10

>> Let me see that again.

113:11

>> I'm just looking at other photos.

113:13

>> Other photos.

113:14

>> Okay. The one on the far right. She's

113:16

still pretty,

113:18

but there's there's definitely a change

113:20

in her face.

113:20

>> But look at that fifth photo. She's

113:22

>> Jennifer Gray is a better example.

113:23

>> Well, she's got a nose job. But after

113:25

that nose job, her career kind of

113:26

stopped.

113:27

>> Well, no. Linda Evans is the worst of

113:29

this. Can you pull up Linda Evans? Linda

113:30

Evans from the Terminator.

113:31

>> From Dynasty.

113:33

>> Oh, Linda Hamilton Terminator.

113:35

>> Yeah, Linda Evans is really

113:36

>> Linda Hamilton is awesome in

113:39

Stranger Things. What did she do?

113:41

>> I mean, she looks horrific.

113:42

>> Well, she's old, man.

113:43

>> Yeah, but there's plenty of old people

113:44

who don't look like that.

113:46

>> She doesn't look like she did anything.

113:47

>> She sued.

113:48

>> She sued for plastic surgery.

113:51

>> Yeah. Look at that one right there,

113:52

Jamie. Yeah. Pull that up.

113:53

>> I did. I'm just

113:57

>> It's bad

113:58

>> YouTube video.

114:00

Well, that's just I don't see where does

114:02

it say

114:03

>> the one right under that. The red one.

114:04

See that? Yeah. Pull that up. See?

114:06

>> Uh finding peace and happiness growing

114:09

older in the Northwest. Well, that just

114:10

looks like an older lady.

114:12

>> But she doesn't look like herself at

114:13

all.

114:14

>> But she's older.

114:15

>> But I She had a lot of effed up work.

114:18

Maybe she had some of it reversed.

114:19

>> Maybe.

114:20

>> Well, you're saying that's not

114:22

>> that one's not that shocking to me.

114:24

That's just an older lady. I don't think

114:26

I think it's quite shocking because I

114:28

think it looks bad.

114:29

>> No disrespect to her.

114:31

>> I mean, that's the difference between a

114:33

30-year-old lady and a

114:35

70-year-old lady.

114:36

>> There's plenty of 70-y old lady who

114:37

don't look like a like protein bars.

114:40

>> I don't know that I don't think that's

114:42

the best example. I think the Rene Okay.

114:45

What has Linda done to her face

114:46

>> from like tabloids, right? Doesn't even

114:49

>> Okay. So, it might not be true.

114:50

>> There's a lot of cases like this, you

114:52

know? It's it's whatever.

114:54

>> Yeah.

114:55

What was the point? How do we get on

114:57

that?

114:57

>> What were we talking about? Kiana Reeves

114:59

the uh Rene Zelwagger.

115:01

>> I was on chat. I was looking up chat GPT

115:03

stuff and then switched to that.

115:05

>> Okay. Yeah, chat GBT5. Did chat GPT code

115:09

chat GPT5?

115:11

>> That's I don't I don't even know how to

115:12

search that. I don't know the right

115:13

search term to look that up because it's

115:15

not I'm not getting anywhere.

115:16

>> If you ask that question, it doesn't

115:18

>> I chat GPT5 makes itself better, you

115:21

know. I don't there's there's something

115:22

that I was trying to dig into about that

115:24

singularity stuff.

115:24

>> It's called like self-correcting loops

115:26

or something like that, but I'm not

115:27

getting anywhere with that. It's that's

115:29

not the right.

115:30

>> This was the this was the concern about

115:32

AI was that eventually AI would become

115:35

sensient and autonomous and would create

115:36

better versions of itself and it would

115:38

do it very quickly,

115:39

>> right?

115:40

>> And I think we're in that right now. I

115:42

think what we're getting from these

115:44

engineers is an indication that the

115:47

people that are deeply involved in this

115:49

are disturbed by the power of

115:51

this stuff. They essentially say that

115:53

they don't have a job anymore. They just

115:54

kind of show up and it does the work for

115:56

them and that this is far more potent

116:00

than what the general public is aware

116:02

of.

116:02

>> So,

116:03

>> and getting better all the time. We're

116:04

at the point now where Grock is a better

116:08

conversationalist

116:09

and better at perceiving nuance and

116:11

humor than the average person. A lot of

116:14

times if I have a tweet and some

116:16

creatine comes in with some response, I

116:18

will just say, "Hey Grock, explain to

116:20

this person such and such and such and I

116:22

leave it for Grock to be like a tart

116:23

handler and I do this every single day."

116:25

But the point is, if I'm being humorous,

116:28

maybe my jokes aren't that funny. Point

116:30

being, Grock understands that I'm being

116:32

humorous. Even this person isn't or is

116:34

pretending not to. So what happens when

116:37

the average person, what are they

116:39

bringing to the table,

116:40

>> right? What are they bringing to the

116:41

table?

116:42

>> What about artists too? Like the AI arts

116:44

getting better every single day. Like I

116:46

did a book where I used AI for the

116:47

cover. It's like what are you going to

116:49

do with you're going to have a certain

116:51

number of people who are good at like

116:53

massaging it and you know get having

116:55

great ideas but at a certain point

116:57

there's only so much you can do.

116:59

>> Did you see what the Door brothers did?

117:00

>> No. They just released. They're these

117:02

really good AI artists. They're the guys

117:04

who do all the intros to the Kill Tony

117:06

videos.

117:07

>> They're awesome. And they just

117:09

made like a Hollywood movie and they did

117:12

it in like a day, right,

117:14

>> with AI. See if you can find that clip

117:16

cuz it went viral and everybody's kind

117:17

of freaking out. They're like

117:18

Hollywood's done cuz this clip is

117:20

insane. It's It's so realistic looking.

117:23

>> The other thing is by the time we're all

117:25

wrapping our heads around it, it's

117:27

already 6 months ago.

117:28

>> Mhm.

117:29

>> That's what's crazy. And it's far better

117:30

than it was then.

117:31

>> They put out another one today.

117:32

>> Let me see.

117:33

>> Put the headphones on.

117:34

>> Okay. Yes, sir.

117:37

>> Go full screen. Back it up.

117:40

>> Pause.

117:45

>> This is all AI.

117:46

>> Yeah.

118:02

Holy crap.

118:07

>> Holy crap.

118:10

Whoa.

118:12

>> What the

118:40

Holy

118:43

Holy

118:59

I don't

119:00

>> Wow.

119:01

>> I don't think it's a good idea for

119:03

humans to casually

119:04

>> This is the other one they did. Check

119:06

this one out.

119:06

>> Really busy. Can you get Sophia today?

119:08

>> What? No. I have a meeting. I can't.

119:11

>> Oh

119:12

>> This is all AI.

119:14

>> Reporting what is being called a

119:15

geomagnetic storm. This is a phenomenon

119:18

caused by a massive becomes available.

119:21

Stay tuned to this channel for

119:22

continuous coverage.

119:58

God, look at her face. Looks so

120:00

realistic.

120:05

I don't like this.

120:16

Sophia.

120:17

>> Mom,

120:18

>> I love you. I'm on my way.

120:20

>> Oh my god.

120:20

>> I need you to hide. Get underground.

120:28

>> I can't watch.

120:54

Oh my god.

121:18

It's a great cybert truck ad.

121:21

People point online, you can hear the

121:22

engine, which is No, but you can hear

121:24

the engine when it does that. It makes a

121:28

weird humming noise.

121:54

>> Good morning, sleeping beauty.

121:58

Why don't you get the president on the

121:59

phone?

122:04

>> We have her.

122:06

>> What the

122:07

>> I'll be right there.

122:08

>> Oh my god.

122:10

>> I don't like this at all. I don't like

122:13

that at all.

122:14

>> I don't think the sound was AI. Some of

122:16

it could have been, but mixed too good

122:18

and all that stuff.

122:18

>> I don't think it's a good thing for

122:20

people to casually be seeing footage of

122:24

people being shot in the face. Like I'm

122:26

on YouTube.

122:26

>> Well, they've already got that.

122:28

>> I'm saying it's not a good thing.

122:29

>> Check out this video that I just sent

122:30

you, Jamie.

122:31

>> Okay.

122:32

>> There's a lot of I watch a lot of police

122:33

body cam videos on YouTube.

122:34

>> Oh, yeah.

122:35

>> And you see people on killed. And it's

122:36

just like

122:37

>> are we not having conversation the

122:39

effect of the human mind of just

122:40

watching real people getting killed left

122:42

and right all the time.

122:43

>> I know.

122:44

>> Young people.

122:45

>> There's a lot of that.

122:46

>> Like I don't like seeing I mean watching

122:48

>> Check this out.

122:48

>> Okay. Oh Jesus. Okay.

123:06

I was just asking about the pencil

123:08

trick.

123:09

>> This is crazy.

123:12

This is crazy. Oh, there's Shane. Okay.

123:14

Wow.

123:14

>> Weird.

123:15

>> But I don't like you you don't see

123:18

anything wrong with just casually

123:20

showing planes flying into buildings.

123:22

Yeah.

123:23

>> Well, all movies do that though.

123:25

>> I don't think that's Yeah, but the thing

123:26

is this is how you kind of borrow the

123:28

frog,

123:29

>> but they've always done that in action

123:31

movies.

123:32

>> I don't think to that level is is to

123:34

have anyone be able to make this the

123:35

drop of a hat. I'm not saying it should

123:37

be banned. I'm just saying I think at a

123:39

certain point if 24/7 we're seeing right

123:42

>> dozens of people getting killed,

123:44

>> Yeah.

123:44

>> it's going to have an effect on

123:47

>> people's psyches.

123:49

>> No question. And I don't think that's a

123:51

good effect.

123:53

>> Well, it's what we have now before this.

123:55

Not good.

123:56

>> Do you know what else is up?

123:57

We're not even talking about what this

123:59

kind of porn is going to look like.

124:00

>> Right. Right. And porn with any like you

124:03

or Jamie. You and Jamie could be

124:05

in a video

124:05

>> that I'm talking about

124:08

>> what I'm talking about. Snuff films.

124:09

>> Oh, right. Right. Yeah.

124:11

>> You can make porn right now. You're

124:14

doing the girl, then you cut her head

124:15

off or cut body parts off.

124:16

>> Yeah. Just pull out a shotgun as soon as

124:17

you pull off a knife.

124:19

>> Yeah. Anything. Yeah.

124:20

>> And it'll look really realistic. And you

124:22

have no way of We're still apes. You

124:24

>> people probably already making that

124:26

child porn. They're probably

124:28

>> Well, that I know the the investigators

124:30

already don't have the tools to

124:31

distinguish between real videos of

124:34

infants and AI videos of of infants.

124:38

>> And this is again, this has been a

124:40

bridge that's been crossed and like no

124:42

one knows what to say or do about it.

124:44

It's just like we're kind of just

124:45

binking and it's here.

124:47

>> Well, it's not just here. It's here and

124:50

growing and getting stronger all the

124:52

time and we're all just plowing head

124:55

first forward towards the cliff.

124:57

>> And what what's going to happen when

124:58

this started kind of stuff gets um uh uh

125:01

um matched up with psychedelics?

125:03

>> Well, it's not just that. It's like what

125:05

happens when this stuff starts running

125:07

all of our resources, running our

125:10

economy, running everything,

125:12

>> right?

125:12

>> Because that's what's going to happen.

125:14

It's going to be our government.

125:15

>> Well, I mean, right that Who is that?

125:17

the creepy line guy.

125:19

>> Creepy line.

125:19

>> There was that documentary, The Creepy

125:21

Line. Uh Robert something Malone, I

125:23

think his name was. He's he's an

125:24

academic. His point, he went through

125:26

Google and he goes, "Look, if I'm

125:28

Google, right, and I and I or I'm

125:31

Facebook and I have people who are like

125:33

Trump and people who like Hillary. So if

125:35

I just put out, hey, you should vote and

125:39

send it just to the Hillary people." I'm

125:41

not on paper endorsing Hillary.

125:42

>> Robert Epste.

125:43

>> Robert Epste. Thank you.

125:44

>> Oh, that guy. We've had that guy on

125:45

multiple times,

125:46

>> right? But then you're going to be

125:48

getting out that vote in the direction

125:49

you want.

125:50

>> Well, his concern is Google searches.

125:53

>> Sure.

125:53

>> So like if you search Trump, it's all

125:55

negative stories. If you search Hillary,

125:58

it was also I've talked to him also

125:59

about the the Facebook stuff. If you're

126:00

promoting go and vote and you have this

126:02

group versus that group, it could nudge

126:03

it

126:04

>> very easily. So it's that technology is

126:06

already here and been used

126:07

>> and been used. That's real election

126:10

manipulation that's already legal and

126:12

being used for whatever reason. So,

126:15

well, you know what reason? But but

126:16

>> but I also but you know curated search

126:18

engines are a real problem if

126:20

you're if you're hiding certain

126:22

information. Like I noticed that during

126:24

the pandemic there was a story about a

126:26

doctor in Florida that got vaccinated

126:29

and then really quickly afterwards had a

126:31

stroke and died. And I I read the story

126:33

and a lot of people were concerned about

126:34

it. And then I tried to find it on

126:36

Google. I could not find it. I could not

126:39

find it. I looked everywhere. Then I

126:40

looked on duck.go and I found it

126:42

immediately.

126:43

>> Wow. And then some it was in the first

126:45

page and then somewhere along the line

126:47

duck.go got weird too.

126:49

>> Oh Jesus. Okay.

126:50

>> Yeah. So it's like they realized that

126:52

people were finding things on duck and

126:54

then that I believe is duck.go curated

126:57

or did they just have open source?

127:01

>> What are they saying? And then I started

127:03

using Brave and Brave was showing me

127:05

things that other other search engines

127:08

weren't showing me. But then the other

127:09

hand if are they show you have the

127:11

problem of is it showing you things that

127:13

are just not true.

127:14

>> Right. But I was searching for a very

127:15

specific story.

127:18

>> Right. Right. You're definitely going to

127:20

get a lot of that especially if there's

127:21

like look the Hunter Biden laptop story.

127:23

They got

127:24

>> 51 different former intelligence agents

127:26

to say that it was Russian

127:27

disinformation.

127:28

>> Not curated in the sense of building a

127:29

personalized filter bubble based on user

127:31

history. But it does curate results by

127:33

ranking.

127:33

>> Yeah.

127:34

>> I don't know how you can really avoid

127:35

that though. Right. It's curating,

127:36

indexing, and filtering from hundreds of

127:38

sources, including Bing. Bing's not

127:41

good.

127:41

>> It has to put things

127:42

>> to provide what it deems relevant, what

127:44

it deems relevant. Unlike Google, it

127:47

avoids user tracking and

127:48

personalization, providing a more

127:50

neutral, non-personalized search

127:52

experience, but also curated by ranking.

127:57

No user profiling does not store search

127:59

history or all I know is that there was

128:01

a difference in the way it worked for

128:03

me. It doesn't mean that it's

128:05

>> there has to be some ranking process.

128:07

Yeah.

128:07

>> It can't just, you know, it's going to

128:09

have things in order no matter what

128:10

search engine,

128:10

>> right? When you're looking for something

128:11

very specific,

128:12

>> that is Yeah, that's obviously

128:14

>> Google would not show me that article. I

128:16

I put in all the facts of that. I could

128:18

not find it. All it was saying was the

128:20

benefits of getting the COVID vaccine.

128:21

>> Has it gotten better or worse?

128:22

>> I don't know.

128:23

>> We don't know. How would we know?

128:24

>> I don't know. I mean, but you should be

128:26

disturbed at Rob at uh Robert Epstein's

128:29

work because Robert Epstein's work shows

128:31

that with just this curated search

128:33

result, you can shift all these centrist

128:37

voters, all these middle of the pack

128:38

voters, these swing voters, you can

128:40

shift them by

128:42

>> I think it was 2%.

128:43

>> I think it's larger.

128:44

>> And point being Trump won by one

128:46

>> was 9% or something crazy.

128:47

>> Even let's be conservative say two.

128:49

Trump by one one and a half.

128:51

>> Yeah. Yeah. So it's and I don't think

128:53

things are looking good for the

128:54

Republicans going forward.

128:55

>> Well, it doesn't look good for the

128:56

midterms, right? Oh, that's

128:58

>> I mean, this ICE stuff is doing a great

129:00

job for that because a lot of people are

129:01

like, "Hey, we're moving towards fascism

129:03

>> and the perception of the economy."

129:05

>> Yeah.

129:05

>> The thing with the ICE stuff, it's like

129:07

people, you know, voters can have

129:09

contradictory perspectives like they

129:11

want to get rid of illegal aliens, but

129:14

don't force them out. It's like, what

129:15

are you gonna do? Send them a strongly

129:16

worded letter? Well, I think the real

129:18

problem is they're not willing to

129:19

address the fact that these are paid

129:22

protests and agitators. Sure. And that

129:24

these people, it's not this is not an

129:25

organic thing where people are taking to

129:27

the streets. They're literally being

129:28

paid. These people have come out and

129:30

said, "You get X amount of money. You

129:32

get $100 a day. If it's cold out, you

129:33

get more money." One of the things

129:35

people were saying that I don't know if

129:36

it's true at all was like, "This might

129:37

be horshit." They were saying they gave

129:39

them decel meters to see how loud they

129:42

were yelling

129:44

>> who where

129:45

>> protesters really that they were

129:46

providing protesters with these decel

129:48

meters and for them to or in order to

129:51

get paid they had to be yelling at a

129:53

certain decel. I was like this sounds

129:54

like disinformation.

129:55

>> Yeah. That I feel like how much are

129:57

those things? How much is a

129:59

decel meter? That sounds like very like

130:01

a problem in terms of like cost,

130:03

>> right? And you could if I had that I'd

130:04

sell on eBay, right? Right.

130:07

>> Thousands of people and you're providing

130:09

them with these decu, I would think.

130:12

>> Right. Yeah. It sounded like horseshit,

130:14

but there's a lot of horseshit out

130:15

there. There's a lot of people that they

130:17

do interviews and they just make up fake

130:20

stuff just for clickbait.

130:22

>> But the thing is there I think people

130:24

are I agree with you or like over ice,

130:26

but it's like what's your plan B,

130:28

>> right?

130:29

>> The amnesty. Like if that's your

130:30

argument, that's fine. But it's just

130:32

like it's not a tenable situation. I

130:34

mean, look what's going on overseas.

130:35

Like, what are you going to do? Like,

130:37

right now, there's a guy who's running

130:38

against Farage from the right of him.

130:40

And it's like, you're going to break up

130:41

that vote. Like, it's called Restore

130:43

Britain.

130:44

>> Oh, what is he saying?

130:45

>> He's saying he's like, Farage is too

130:47

soft. We're going to deport them all

130:49

blah blah blah. It's just like like how

130:51

would like fine, I understand that's

130:54

your argument. Literally, how are you

130:56

going to do that without mass

130:57

enforcement? I'm not saying I'm for it

130:58

or against it. I'm just saying what is

131:00

your plan? It's not. It's easy to

131:02

promise if I'm in a country that's

131:04

awesome, I don't want to go back to my

131:05

hole. Like, I'm going to do

131:07

whatever I can legally and sometimes

131:09

extra legally to make sure I'm staying.

131:11

>> Especially people over there that have

131:12

been encouraged to go there, right? And

131:14

then they bend the laws in order to kind

131:16

of hide their crimes,

131:17

>> right?

131:18

>> One of the best things that happened to

131:20

me was uh December 31st, 2024. So, it

131:24

was the beginning of 2025. I was on

131:27

Twitter and you heard about these

131:29

grooming gangs overseas and even me who

131:31

writes a lot about the nature of evil

131:33

was naive because when you hear the term

131:35

grooming I thought okay these high

131:37

school girls have these you know

131:39

boyfriends from from different countries

131:40

and like 30 whatever and it's gross and

131:43

whatever and then I s someone posted the

131:46

receipts of the legal cases these were

131:48

girls children eight-year-olds 10

131:51

whatever being violated and beaten with

131:53

baseball bats they were complaining to

131:56

police. The police said everything's

131:57

fine. Like really graphic stuff. And I'm

132:00

like, how stupid I was to think grooming

132:03

meant what anyone else thinks of

132:04

grooming. These are rape and torture

132:06

gangs. And then Elon saw my tweet and he

132:09

blew a gasket. And then they kind of

132:11

talked about it in parliament. So it was

132:12

a great way to start 2025, but like

132:14

where is it all going? You know what I

132:16

mean? Like people are upset. But

132:18

>> you know, Kirsty's in jail. Like he

132:20

things he's in trouble for aren't stuff

132:21

like this. The entire Labor party voted

132:24

against further inquiry. It's like some

132:26

of these guys got prison sentences, but

132:27

they're not anywhere near proportionate.

132:29

And why are they still in the UK?

132:31

>> I just don't understand it. I just don't

132:33

understand. Like what what's the endgame

132:35

there,

132:36

>> right? Like what is like

132:37

>> is it the destruction of the UK? Like

132:40

what's the endg game?

132:41

>> That's sure what it's that's well if

132:43

that's isn't their goal, that's sure

132:44

where they are headed toward,

132:46

>> right? If you were trying to destroy the

132:47

UK, that's how you would do it. Bring in

132:49

violent migrants. Let them do violent

132:51

crimes. Don't prosecute them. prosecute

132:53

people for complaining about it online

132:55

>> and don't uh bring them into your

132:57

country and and kind of uh assimilate

132:59

them,

132:59

>> right?

133:00

>> Like encourage them to not assimilate.

133:02

>> Yeah.

133:03

>> So, I was just there in in August. It's

133:05

bad as people think it is. It's even

133:07

worse.

133:07

>> Really?

133:08

>> It was There was a um a theater a block

133:12

away from the House of Parliament and

133:14

they were bragging that seeing their

133:15

shows are safe. Not fun for the whole

133:18

family. Not, you know, oh, this is

133:20

educational. You're not going to get

133:22

murdered if you come see a play here.

133:24

This that really shouldn't be a selling

133:25

point when you're going to the movies or

133:27

theater. Excuse me.

133:28

>> Crazy.

133:29

>> Yeah. And it's only getting getting

133:31

worse.

133:32

So, it's it's it's I don't and I don't

133:34

But here's the other thing. Let's talk

133:36

about America, right? If you want to get

133:38

rid of all these illegal immigrants,

133:40

what is your mechanism? Because there if

133:43

what Trump is doing is too much, there's

133:45

no al the alternatives to make it

133:48

difficult for them. So, they remigrate.

133:49

But there's plenty of people who would I

133:51

can certainly understand it. I'd rather

133:52

be an illegal immigrant in America than

133:54

go back to whatever hell hole.

133:56

>> Right.

133:57

>> I found the video talking about decimal

133:59

meters. They were around.

134:00

>> That was a joke. Okay.

134:01

>> And Grock says they were satizing.

134:05

>> Uh paid protesters with the uh the the

134:09

>> decel meters.

134:10

>> Yeah, the decibel meters. That sounds

134:12

ridiculous.

134:13

>> Yeah. The whole thing was is

134:15

bullshitting. Yeah, that makes sense

134:18

because I was like, there's no way.

134:19

There's no way they're giving people

134:20

decibel meters. But that's also just

134:22

clickbait.

134:22

>> What would you do with the illegal

134:24

immigrants?

134:25

>> It's a good question, you know. Um, the

134:28

real problem is that they let 10 million

134:31

people plus in over the last four years.

134:34

And

134:35

that's the thing that no one wants to

134:37

address. Like the only reason why there

134:39

is this problem is because we had a

134:41

open border for 4 years where

134:43

they actually encouraged people to come

134:44

in and they let in a bunch of violent

134:46

criminals and people have been killed,

134:48

women have been raped, children have

134:51

been killed. This is and they want to

134:52

hide that data because they don't want

134:54

to be held responsible for what they did

134:56

over the last four years. um the fact

134:59

that that doesn't get the kind of

135:01

outrage that it should. But then an ICE

135:04

protester shooting a guy who was armed.

135:07

Do you know what really is going on with

135:10

the the gun community about that guy who

135:12

got that Alex Prey guy? Right.

135:13

>> Do you know the story?

135:14

>> Well, I know that what's his name? Uh

135:16

got fired correctly. Yes.

135:18

>> For saying, "Well, you shouldn't bring

135:19

guns to fight the police." And all the

135:20

2A people are like, "Are you crazy?" The

135:22

whole point of the 2A is against the

135:23

police,

135:23

>> right? But that guy, so they disarmed

135:27

him. He was carrying a Sig P320.

135:30

>> Okay.

135:30

>> Sig P320s are notorious for accidentally

135:34

discharging. It appears, at least in

135:37

videos that I've seen, and some people

135:38

seem to verify this, that as one of the

135:41

officers pulls the gun from him and

135:44

walks away with it, it accidentally

135:46

discharges.

135:47

>> Okay?

135:48

>> They think this guy has a gun still cuz

135:51

they just pulled a gun from him. A gun

135:52

went off. They think they're in a

135:54

gunfight. Everything's happening split

135:55

second. They empty on that guy. The two

135:57

guys who kills them, both of them

135:59

Mexican guys,

136:00

>> right? Did you see? They look like

136:01

people. Did you not see them?

136:03

>> I didn't see they showed their actual

136:04

faces.

136:05

>> Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's on my Twitter. If

136:06

you scroll back a few days, Jamie, they

136:07

look like I said the village. It looks

136:09

straight up village people.

136:10

>> But what's crazy is how many Latinos are

136:12

in ICE.

136:13

>> Why is that crazy that Trump got the

136:15

Latino vote?

136:16

>> Well, it's not just that. It's like it's

136:17

a really well-paying job and they give

136:19

you a big bonus to sign,

136:21

>> I think. What is the bonus when you sign

136:23

for ICE?

136:25

I think it's like a great incentive.

136:27

>> But here's the other why why that debate

136:29

drives me crazy. If there's a hospital,

136:32

right, and there's a nurse who's killing

136:34

patients, which happens that happens.

136:35

You have these like black widow

136:37

situations. No one's going to say shut

136:39

down the hospital or stop medicine. So

136:42

even if this was a firstdegree murder,

136:44

let's assume for the sake of argument,

136:46

that doesn't mean you should abolish

136:47

ICE. It just means that guy should go to

136:49

jail. Why does one thing have to do the

136:50

other? Look at this. Signing bonus up to

136:53

$50,000.

136:55

>> $60,000 in student loan repayment up to

136:59

25% in premium pay. I don't know what

137:01

that means.

137:02

>> Probably overtime, maybe.

137:04

>> Premium pay. 25%. What does that mean? I

137:07

don't know. But either way, just the

137:09

$50,000 bonus. How many people are

137:11

willing to take that job just for that?

137:13

And then $60,000 in student loan

137:15

repayment.

137:15

>> That's great on your resume.

137:16

>> Yeah. Well, you get your student loans

137:18

paid off and you get a $50,000 bonus.

137:20

Holy

137:21

>> Right.

137:21

>> You you can get a lot of people to do

137:22

that.

137:23

>> And job security.

137:24

>> Yeah. And you can wear mask.

137:25

>> It seems like a job like macho guys

137:28

would enjoy.

137:28

>> Sure. And if you're desperate for work

137:30

and if you can't find work and then all

137:31

a sudden this is like an answer to all

137:33

your financial problems. A lot of people

137:35

are going to do it.

137:36

>> So, but again, what's

137:37

>> you're also like very undertrained. Like

137:39

they only train for seven weeks.

137:41

>> Is that right?

137:41

>> Yeah.

137:42

>> But what's the answer though? No one has

137:44

an answer.

137:44

>> Right. That's a good question because

137:46

Yeah. Well, there are a lot of violent

137:48

criminals in this country that did get

137:50

in over the last four years that do need

137:51

to be removed. So, what are you going to

137:52

do?

137:52

>> But what do you do about the nonviolent

137:54

ones?

137:54

>> Well, here's the thing. There was an

137:56

interesting um statistic. I think I sent

137:58

it to you, Jamie, where they were saying

138:00

only 14% of these people that they've

138:02

arrested are violent criminals.

138:04

>> Okay?

138:05

>> But that that's what they didn't say is

138:08

that 60% of the people that they

138:10

arrested had criminal history. And when

138:13

you say nonviolent,

138:14

nonviolent meaning what? What about

138:16

strong armed robbery? What about a guy

138:18

pulls a gun on you? That's is that how

138:20

are you classifi?

138:21

>> I bet it's not if you don't cause

138:23

violence.

138:24

>> No, there's no way a armed robbery isn't

138:27

a violent crime.

138:28

>> If you do not cause violence, I wonder

138:30

if they're categorizing it as violence.

138:32

Like if you do not shoot someone, stab

138:34

someone, beat someone, so you're not

138:35

convicted of a violent crime. You're

138:37

convicted of robbery.

138:38

>> Why? Because they're doing everything in

138:39

their power to make the gun violence

138:42

numbers as high as possible. So if

138:44

there's any opportunity where a gun is

138:46

involved, that will be counted as gun

138:48

violence

138:49

>> perhaps. But you could rob people with a

138:50

knife,

138:51

>> you know? I mean, does that count? If

138:52

you pull a knife on someone, is that and

138:54

you rob them, is that considered a

138:55

violent crime?

138:56

>> I I bet you it is.

138:57

>> I wonder. But either way, the the the

139:01

misleading aspect of the article was

139:03

that only 14% were violent criminals.

139:06

But is that okay that the other

139:09

46% are breaking into people's houses

139:12

and robbing cars and

139:14

>> but what about that?

139:15

>> But what about the 40% who just

139:17

shouldn't be here, right? Like that's

139:18

the question,

139:19

>> right? They all shouldn't be there,

139:20

>> right? So what are you going to do,

139:21

>> right? Okay, here it is. 400,000 ICE

139:23

arrests in Trump's first year. About 60%

139:26

involved individuals with some criminal

139:28

charges or convictions. However, only

139:30

14% had violent crime records, including

139:33

as homicide, 2,100 arrest, sexual

139:35

assault, 5,400, robbery, 2,700. So,

139:39

robbery, nearly 40% lacked any criminal

139:42

record. Detained for civil immigration

139:45

violations.

139:46

>> Wait, can we skip ahead? Look, this is

139:48

what's so shameless. Arrest for

139:50

non-violent issues like DUI. I'm sorry.

139:53

If you're doing DUI, you should be

139:54

deported, right?

139:55

>> That is a violent crime. Well, you

139:57

definitely cause death, right, and

139:59

destruction. Um, drugs 22,000, DUI

140:03

30,000, outnumber severe violent crimes.

140:06

But yeah, but those are bad

140:07

crimes.

140:08

>> I don't I But I think this kind of is a

140:11

distraction from Yes.

140:12

>> If you have 10 million people and

140:13

they're all house homemakers, like let's

140:15

suppose they're the nicest people ever,

140:17

are you comfortable with them just

140:19

remaining here? And I don't think most

140:21

people are.

140:22

>> No.

140:22

>> Then what do you do? Rand Paul thinks

140:25

that you should allow them to stay but

140:27

not give them citizenship.

140:29

>> See, if birthright citizenship went

140:31

away, a lot of this would be solved,

140:33

right? Right. If like you can't you

140:34

don't not eligible for welfare, you're

140:36

eligible for Medicaid, you could pay

140:38

your taxes and income, but you're not

140:39

getting the benefits. People can

140:41

understand that argument maybe,

140:43

>> especially if you are illegal and then

140:45

you come here specifically to have a

140:46

baby and then you could stay too. That's

140:49

kind of crazy. That's a crazy law.

140:50

>> It It's I think we're the only country

140:52

that has that too. Yeah.

140:53

>> So,

140:54

>> China definitely doesn't.

140:55

>> So, well, I mean, no one's really

140:57

banging on the door for Chinese

140:58

citizenship to be fair.

140:59

>> That's true.

141:00

>> Unless from North Korea, maybe. But,

141:02

yeah. So, it's

141:03

>> it is a problem that doesn't have like a

141:05

clear-cut solution that would make both

141:07

sides happy. That's for damn sure.

141:09

>> Well, I don't I think one side is

141:11

against it entirely and many Republicans

141:14

are don't think it's worth, you know,

141:16

kind of overturn our whole society to

141:18

get these 10 million people out. So

141:20

what's I mean, if we had if we had 10

141:23

million Canadians come to America,

141:25

that's not going to change the country.

141:27

>> That makes no sense,

141:28

>> right? Well, especially 10 million

141:29

Canadians that could be violent

141:30

criminals. Well, if you just have an

141:32

open door,

141:33

>> they're not going to be they're

141:34

Canadian.

141:34

>> There's violent Canadians.

141:36

>> Not sure. They're all They need to be

141:40

>> drinking maple syrup.

141:40

>> Do you know about my uh my uh um

141:42

Enslaved Canada plan?

141:44

>> No.

141:45

>> Okay. Is this this this this is I want

141:48

to get the exact I have the exact

141:49

numbers. Hold on here. So there are I

141:52

want to get this exactly right. 41

141:54

million Canadians. Okay.

141:56

>> Okay.

141:57

>> Now let's talk about reparations.

141:59

>> Right. So if I wreck your truck and your

142:02

truck is worth $10,000. I got to get you

142:04

a brand new truck or $10,000. That's

142:07

reparations is restored.

142:08

>> Okay.

142:09

>> How could you have reparations for

142:10

something as horrific as slavery? A

142:12

check's not going to do it because

142:13

there's no amount of money where I could

142:14

say, "What? You know what? You own my

142:16

grandma, it's fine. Right.

142:17

>> Right.

142:18

>> 41 million Canadians, they've already

142:20

demonstrated repeatedly that they don't

142:22

want freedom through every action that

142:23

they've taken. 42 million African black

142:26

Americans. So slavery in the South was a

142:30

horrific blot on America's past. So the

142:33

opposite, slavery in the north would be

142:35

better. So we invade and enslave #

142:39

eninsslave Canada and every

142:41

African-American gets one Canadian and

142:43

that's reparations. And then you don't

142:45

ever have to hear about slavery or

142:46

racism again.

142:47

>> What a great idea.

142:48

>> And the big names can get the big names.

142:50

So like Michelle Obama can get Gad Sad,

142:54

right? Barack Obama is not

142:55

African-American. He's African. You

142:57

don't get one.

142:58

>> Do you think that's real?

142:59

>> The Kenyan thing.

143:00

>> Well, he's he's he was of African

143:02

descent. He wasn't his ancestors were

143:04

never slaves.

143:05

>> So he does he's not do reparations. In

143:06

fact, his ancestors own slaves and so

143:08

did Kla Harris's. Michelle Obama's

143:10

ancestors were enslaved. So she gets

143:12

Gad. Sorry, Gad.

143:15

I'm not kidding. I think we should do

143:16

it. It would solve Canada. It would

143:18

solve a racism problem.

143:19

>> Canada just needs to be free.

143:21

>> Yeah.

143:21

>> They need a better government up there.

143:23

>> That's right. You know, can Trump ruined

143:25

that

143:26

>> when he with him

143:27

>> when he was saying they were going to be

143:28

our 51st state. He like he killed the

143:30

Conservative party because then

143:32

everybody sort of united and said, "Hey,

143:34

we've got to stop America from trying to

143:35

turn us into the 51st state."

143:37

>> This Greenland thing. Okay, let's talk

143:40

about this. Okay, because in I don't

143:42

know if people know this. in the first

143:43

term, uh, we're saying Marie

143:45

Frederickson, I think, is the prime

143:47

minister of Denmark.

143:48

>> They were going to have a meeting and

143:50

Trump's like, "We want Greenland." And

143:52

she's like, "Oh, you, you know, haha,

143:54

looking forward to, you know, meeting

143:55

you, Mr. President." And on Twitter, he

143:58

cancels the meeting and goes, "Uh, since

144:00

the prime minister doesn't know her

144:02

place, we're going to have to meet

144:03

another time." And she's like, "What?

144:06

Like, what are you talking about?" And

144:08

now they're saying you could have

144:10

Greenland to do anything you want. You

144:12

want to dig for the minerals, please

144:14

bring industry there. Nope. We need to

144:16

own Greenland. And they don't know. And

144:19

I don't know what to make of his.

144:21

Someone I saw on social media thinks he

144:23

must be on the spectrum because he's so

144:25

fixated on this thing that no one who's

144:27

neurotypical has this kind of fixation.

144:29

But what do you make of this whole

144:30

Greenland thing?

144:31

>> I don't understand it. Do you know they

144:32

offered us Greenland in the 1920s?

144:34

>> Right. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Was it too much

144:36

money or something?

144:38

>> How much was it?

144:39

>> How much did they offer us for?

144:42

>> But I don't blame them for being like,

144:44

"What is going on?"

144:45

>> It is crazy,

144:46

>> right?

144:47

>> So Denmark owns Greenland. Who's closer?

144:50

Denmark or the United States to

144:52

Greenland?

144:52

>> Then we should have it.

144:54

>> Why shouldn't Canada have it then?

144:55

>> No. them.

144:57

>> Like I This is what it must be like in

145:00

Denmark right now where they're like,

145:01

"What do we say?"

145:02

>> Okay. It did not offer itself to the

145:04

United States in the 1920s. US expressed

145:06

interest in acquiring or basing in

145:08

Greenland during that decade, but no

145:10

formal offer came from Denmark. I

145:12

thought there was negotiation.

145:14

>> That's what it's saying. Yeah.

145:15

>> Okay.

145:15

>> A land swap idea.

145:17

>> Okay. Um for the US Virgin Islands for

145:21

25 million. The US bought the Danish

145:23

West Indies, now US Virgin Islands, for

145:25

25 million. What a deal. Uh but affirm

145:29

Danish sovereignty over Greenland. 1920s

145:32

US Army General Billy Mitchell advocated

145:34

for American air bases on Greenland and

145:36

Iceland to expand air power, viewing

145:38

them as strategically vital amid

145:40

advancing technology. No purchase or

145:42

secession offer emerged from Denmark. US

145:45

interests remained. Internal military

145:48

advocacy without diplomatic action from

145:50

Copenhagen.

145:51

>> We just got to give him a swap. We get

145:53

Greenland, you get Puerto Rico.

145:54

>> So in 1947, go back to that.

146:00

19476

146:01

uh President Truman proposed a h 100red

146:03

million in gold for Greenland rejected

146:06

by Denmark amid cold war tensions. US

146:09

gained defense rights via 1941 agreement

146:11

during World War II occupation of

146:13

Denmark. How interesting is that? Like

146:15

we've been interested in Greenland

146:17

forever. Oh, it's right there. That's

146:19

ours. We should take it.

146:20

>> It's that fast fast route to Russia.

146:23

>> Well, yeah, cuz you have those straights

146:24

on both sides.

146:25

>> Faster than going across. But the thing

146:28

is they're already saying you could do

146:30

whatever you want.

146:31

>> Like take a dump on it. We don't care.

146:33

Like we're happy to you you to exploit

146:35

it, please.

146:37

>> And he's like, "Nope, we got to own it."

146:38

It's like, but why?

146:40

>> I guess he got it in his head that he

146:43

could make it happen.

146:44

>> But this is really like I don't The

146:46

thing is they're getting freaked out in

146:48

Europe, not cuz he's being this

146:50

aggressive. I think not just, but also

146:52

because it's like what what are we

146:54

missing? Like you and I like what are we

146:55

missing here? Like what about Greenland?

146:58

Would owning it change when you could do

147:00

whatever you like. Put more bases. We

147:02

love it.

147:03

>> Oh, I don't know, man.

147:05

>> You You've hung out with him. What's he

147:07

What's he Is he have a screw loose?

147:09

>> It's hard to say. I mean, I think

147:11

anybody who wants to be president has a

147:13

screw loose. Sure. And anybody who went

147:14

through that guy, what that guy did.

147:16

Sure. Of course. What he went through

147:18

over the last four years when Biden was

147:19

in office where they were trying to lock

147:20

him up.

147:21

>> What about what he was president? What

147:22

they went through?

147:23

>> The Russian gate stuff. Yeah. All that

147:24

stuff. It's kind of crazy. Uh you would

147:27

have to have a little bit of a screw

147:28

rules and now I think he's on a victory

147:29

lap for sure,

147:31

>> but he also wants to get a lot of stuff

147:32

done because he knows he only has one

147:34

term, you know, and I think uh the

147:37

Greenland thing I I understand the

147:40

strategic implications why you would

147:42

want that, but I don't understand why

147:45

you wouldn't just like accept a deal,

147:47

right?

147:48

>> Well, we could have bases there and use

147:49

>> We have bases there already and we do

147:51

whatever we want. Here's the other

147:52

thing. Here's this is the other one that

147:53

I don't understand. We go to Venezuela.

147:57

We basically teleport Maduro out, right?

147:59

Obviously, there's some kind of inside

148:01

information wherever. Who knows? And

148:03

then everyone just stops talking about

148:04

it.

148:04

>> I know, right? It's just like, well, the

148:06

news cycle is crazy right now.

148:07

>> What is going on in Venezuela? Did they

148:09

change the government? I don't think

148:10

they did.

148:10

>> They didn't change the government, but

148:12

they got rid of the one guy that was a

148:13

resistance. And uh the a lot of people

148:16

like Kurt Mezer thinks that what's going

148:18

to happen is during the trial they're

148:21

going to reveal that Maduro was involved

148:23

in rigging the 2020 election.

148:25

>> American 2020.

148:26

>> Yes. Cuz there is some sort of a

148:28

connection with Venezuela and the 2020

148:31

election and the voting machines.

148:33

>> Wait. Okay. I I love Kurt. I was one of

148:36

two people at his birthday party.

148:38

>> I when I say I love him, I mean

148:40

ironically and non-ironically, I think

148:42

he's the best.

148:43

>> I love him, too. I I don't see any route

148:48

where they would need the um theater of

148:51

a trial to release this sort of

148:53

information.

148:55

>> Right. I agree. But I I think that

148:58

having him uh in America and making a

149:01

deal with him, look, we already

149:02

kidnapped you. We killed all your

149:03

guards.

149:04

>> I think he's I if I can get if I could

149:07

if I could out Kurt Kurt,

149:09

>> I would bet this. I would bet a lot of I

149:11

would not be surprised. I'm not going to

149:12

bet that he's this is already a deal

149:15

that they told him either you come to

149:18

jail with us wink wink or we'll take you

149:20

out and he's like you're not fine I'll

149:22

retire in America. That would make more

149:24

sense to me.

149:26

>> They did some wild stuff over there like

149:28

they used some sound weapon to like

149:30

incapacitate everybody and they went in

149:31

and executed them all.

149:32

>> Is that all of that?

149:34

>> Not a single US soldier was shot,

149:36

>> right?

149:37

>> And everybody was down. Like the people

149:39

that are talking about it that were on

149:40

the ground saying it was crazy. They

149:41

shut off all the power. They shut off

149:43

all the radar systems and then all of a

149:45

sudden helicopters, drones,

149:48

everything was there. This sound weapon

149:50

was used. Everybody was incapacitated.

149:52

They came in gunned down. Like what? How

149:54

many people did they kill? I forget how

149:56

many people.

149:57

>> 100, wasn't it?

149:57

>> They killed a lot of people, but they

149:59

killed him with no resistance.

150:00

>> But I thought it was very clear that we

150:02

had some kind of inside information.

150:04

>> I'm sure we have that as well.

150:05

>> Yeah. Someone on the inside was like

150:06

working with us in terms of where he is.

150:08

>> I'm sure there was that as well. There

150:10

was this

150:10

>> when I saw this photo of him

150:13

>> getting arrested, I thought it was AI

150:16

cuz it looks so crazy and ridiculous.

150:18

And if I went a year ago and said

150:19

Trump's going to arrest Maduro and I'm

150:21

like, arrest him for what? It's just

150:23

like I don't know what's real anymore,

150:24

>> right?

150:25

>> Here's an article from the Guardian uh

150:27

from November

150:29

2025.

150:31

>> Okay. Trump's DOJ investigating

150:34

unfounded claims. Venezuela helped steal

150:37

2020 election. Like, so how do you know

150:38

it's unfounded until you investigate?

150:40

This is the these

150:41

>> Let me skip ahead.

150:42

>> The Guardian's pretty bad with that kind

150:43

of stuff.

150:44

>> Yeah, they're gross.

150:44

>> This stuff is where it was interesting

150:45

cuz this guy works for the CIA, I think,

150:48

and he has a quote down here where he

150:49

says he doesn't deal with kind

150:51

of. I don't dabble.

150:52

>> So, he doesn't he thinks it's

150:53

>> Well, just I was just trying to have you

150:55

read it cuz

150:55

>> Yeah, he says, "I don't dabble in

150:56

conspiracy theories."

150:58

>> Sure you don't. You're in the CIA,

151:00

right?

151:00

>> We don't dabble, we make them.

151:03

>> Uh, okay. Who knows?

151:05

>> This is what Kurt believes. This is not

151:07

my theory.

151:07

>> Keep scrolling down. I want to see what

151:09

what he's saying the Venezuela did.

151:12

>> Yeah. What is the accusation?

151:15

>> Yeah. Keep scrolling down. I want to see

151:16

there's nothing about what they did.

151:19

>> Well, that would be contributing to the

151:20

conspiracy theory.

151:21

>> Yeah, I guess

151:22

>> Mr. Malice.

151:23

>> Yeah,

151:24

>> they don't want to do that in the

151:25

Guardian.

151:28

>> Who knows?

151:28

>> But I Why would they need like

151:30

>> We'll find out. another awesome chapter

151:31

of Game of Thrones

151:33

>> is I I I mean I I I I still don't

151:36

understand like it was a lot of people

151:39

were butt hurt correctly that we

151:41

shouldn't be doing regime change

151:43

>> but the regime didn't change

151:45

>> right we just got rid of one guy and

151:47

kidnapped him and brought him to America

151:49

>> but like if you get rid of Trump Vance

151:51

becomes president you're not changing

151:53

the government at all

151:54

>> right

151:54

>> so like what are we doing here

151:56

>> I don't know

151:57

>> here's a discussion in the journal of

151:59

democracy about how mad Dura stole

152:01

Venezuela's vote and some of

152:02

>> that is very widely accepted as

152:04

>> real. I'm seeing these keywords that are

152:07

popping out as like the same stuff I'm

152:08

hearing in our election dispute.

152:10

>> Ballot receipts, people checking voter

152:13

polls

152:15

>> later that evening. People saying that

152:17

that's not what I did. I was I don't

152:20

It's a lot.

152:21

>> Right.

152:22

>> The other question is what's going on

152:23

with Iran?

152:24

>> Well, it looks like we're about to go

152:25

in.

152:26

>> Are we Are you sure?

152:27

>> Well, there's they're preparing. They

152:29

But I mean that's always it's great

152:30

great to shake your fist.

152:31

>> Shadow. Yeah. Saber rattling.

152:34

>> So it's it's like like it's I I feel I

152:38

feel like all of us are like looking

152:40

around being like what's

152:41

>> what the is going on? Yeah. Every

152:43

day. Every day is what the is going

152:45

on? Right.

152:46

>> And you're just trying to like live a

152:47

normal life.

152:48

>> Yes.

152:49

>> Which is what everybody really wants.

152:50

But they're preventing you from doing

152:51

that with constantly being assaulted by

152:54

new information that scares the out

152:56

of you. And it's also there's no context

152:58

for us to understand this. Like we we

153:00

understand the Saddam situation, right?

153:01

You go in, you conquer country, kill a

153:03

lot of people. It's a nightmare

153:05

bloodbath that was unnecessary. Saddam

153:07

gets hanged. We know that story. Like

153:09

we're just going to come in, pull out

153:10

one guy who's the president and leave

153:12

his wife and his and his wife and

153:14

everything will go back. It's just like

153:16

I remember the Democrats were like, "Uh,

153:18

what do we say to this? This has never

153:19

happened before."

153:20

>> Yeah. I don't know, man. I'm just

153:22

overwhelmed. I this I think I share the

153:25

feeling that most Americans have right

153:27

now where just every day you're like

153:28

what the is going on?

153:30

>> But I feel like it's escalating.

153:32

>> It wasn't this crazy during his first

153:34

term.

153:35

>> No, no, no. The world is escalating.

153:37

>> Yes.

153:37

>> What is this? Venezuelan oil gets

153:40

>> show you that

153:41

>> gets shipped to Israel first time in

153:43

years. Oh boy.

153:44

>> It happened last week. So as I'm just

153:46

looking up, we we assume control of the

153:49

country I think in some way.

153:50

>> Did we like we I think we got their oil

153:52

right. They've found a better way to

153:54

have people run it, but I don't know

153:55

that.

153:55

>> Well, that was the other thing that

153:56

Trump said. What are we going to do with

153:57

the oil tanker? We're going to keep it.

153:59

>> Yeah. It's like, wait, what? Like, how

154:00

do we get to do this?

154:03

Like, if you are

154:04

>> they're sending the oil to Israel. Uh,

154:08

>> so Venezuela is saying it's fake.

154:10

>> Venezuela plans to send its first

154:12

shipment of crude oil to Israel in 17

154:13

years. Part of opening up the country's

154:15

exports following the US abduction of

154:17

President Nicholas Maduro. I did have to

154:19

go to probably not a great source to the

154:21

Middle East eye. I don't know.

154:22

>> Well, Bloomberg's a rep, you know,

154:24

>> that's the one I couldn't past,

154:27

>> but it seems like it's the same story.

154:29

>> Jerusalem Post. Yeah, they're not going

154:30

to be lying about this stuff.

154:31

>> First shipment to Israel.

154:33

>> Well, I think all they're saying is

154:34

they've restored relations between

154:35

Venezuela and

154:36

>> Well, they probably control relations

154:38

now. I It's essentially the US is

154:40

probably in control of their oil

154:41

distribution.

154:42

>> I think that's explicit, isn't it?

154:43

>> Yeah. So, but still like

154:45

>> Well, that was the other thing. He's

154:46

bringing in all these companies. They're

154:48

all going to do it. But apparently their

154:49

oil is like very difficult to acquire.

154:52

Requires

154:53

>> Yeah. They their oil is not like simple

154:55

like Texas oil. Dig a hole in the

154:57

ground, pull it out. It's like it's all

154:59

it has to be processed with all these

155:01

chemicals. It's apparently like the

155:03

consistency of asphalt.

155:04

>> Okay.

155:05

>> And it has to be broken down. It's very

155:08

expensive. This is why uh was it the CEO

155:11

of Exxon? One of the companies said that

155:14

it would never work.

155:15

>> Oh

155:16

>> yeah. that the infrastructure is not in

155:18

place, you know, and then Trump was

155:20

upset at him for being a negative dancy.

155:22

>> I I just I I I think anytime you start

155:26

Did you really

155:28

>> Whenever you start talking about regime

155:29

change, that's something that's very

155:30

scary.

155:31

>> Yeah. Historically

155:32

>> and always turns bad like Libya and all

155:35

these other places. Yeah.

155:37

>> Iraq. Yeah. All

155:39

>> just like it's never good.

155:41

>> Like Yeah. But then at the same time,

155:43

we're like what what do we what do we

155:44

do?

155:46

Like what's plan B? Gavin Newsome. You

155:48

know what I mean?

155:49

>> What's he going to do? Allow everything

155:50

to happen.

155:51

>> Senior Trump administration officials

155:53

have vowed to maintain control over

155:54

Venezuelan oil exports for an indefinite

155:56

period. Indefinite. It's weird. In

155:59

quotes, Secretary of State Marco Rubio

156:02

claiming that the Venezuelan acting

156:04

government headed by Deli Rodriguez

156:07

needs to submit a budget request before

156:09

accessing the country's oil proceeds.

156:11

Whoa. Jesus Christ.

156:15

>> So, we just took over Venezuela

156:16

essentially.

156:17

>> Yeah. No, we just took over their oil.

156:20

>> Yeah, but also the country.

156:21

>> Aren't the people still being oppressed

156:23

as hell?

156:23

>> Yeah, but the government essentially is

156:25

like we're running that government.

156:27

>> I don't think we are though.

156:28

>> We probably tell them what they can and

156:29

can't do.

156:30

>> No, I think that's the thing that

156:31

they're still

156:31

>> just the oil,

156:32

>> right?

156:34

>> Can I talk about something fun?

156:35

>> Yeah.

156:36

>> I uh am finishing a project I've been

156:38

working on for 25 years.

156:40

>> Whoa.

156:41

>> Yeah. So, I'm excited to talk to you

156:43

about it.

156:43

>> What is it?

156:44

>> So, um there was this band from the 80s

156:47

who were called Rubber Rodeo that

156:50

combined punk and country, right? And I

156:52

was looking at this compilation um that

156:54

I got in 1994.

156:57

I sent Jamie the the the picture and I

156:59

was staring at this photo trying to make

157:00

heads or tails of this band because Can

157:03

you pull it up? It's it's You'll show

157:05

you the photo. You'll see what I mean by

157:06

it. because they're a bunch of kids in

157:08

these like kind of um square dancing

157:10

uniforms with no affect on their face

157:14

whatsoever. And the singer, she's in

157:16

this Dolly Parton wig and this big

157:18

square dancing dress and just staring

157:21

right at the viewer. I'm like, are they

157:23

joking? Like what's up with these

157:24

people? Um and I met them and they were

157:27

art school kids. They were not joking.

157:29

They were There it is. That photo. So

157:31

you see I'm st I'm like, are they

157:33

kidding? Are they not kidding? That her

157:34

name is Trish. Um,

157:36

>> and this is from the 80s.

157:37

>> This is from the 80s. They got signed

157:39

the same day as Bon Joy by the same guy.

157:43

And he said, "I'm taking you both to

157:44

number one." So, I wrote a screenplay

157:46

about them because it's kind of like a

157:47

Spinal Tap story because they're on

157:49

stage at punk clubs doing jokes like,

157:52

"Hey, Bob, I I'm exhausted. Why are you

157:55

exhausted, Bob?" "Oh, the couple in the

157:56

next hotel room were up all night eating

157:57

candy bars. Candy bars. Yeah, she kept

157:59

yelling, "Oh, Henry. Oh, Henry." Right.

158:02

So, it's this complete like what are you

158:04

even doing here? Um, but the guy who did

158:08

the keyboards for the band did the

158:12

animation for American Splendor

158:15

>> and through him I met Harvey Pecar uh

158:18

who later wrote a book about me in 2006

158:20

called

158:20

>> Is he that guy that went nuts on

158:22

Letterman?

158:24

>> I'm so glad you know who Harvey is. So,

158:27

Harvey started the idea.

158:28

>> He's a comic book guy, right?

158:29

>> Right. He started the idea of writing

158:31

autobiographical comics in the 70s. Um,

158:34

from off the streets of Cleveland, here

158:35

comes American Splendor. It's an ironic

158:37

title because his life was not exactly

158:39

very splendid. He was a file clerk, kind

158:42

of a miserable person. He hated being

158:43

called a kermagin. Um, and amazingly,

158:47

when the film came out in 200, was it

158:50

2000? I think it was something like

158:51

that. 2001. Um the he flew back to New

158:56

York to do Stern and the producer of the

158:58

film, Ted Hope, sent out an email that

159:01

said, "Harvey's in town with nothing to

159:03

do. If you want to hang out with him,

159:05

this is your chance." And I'm the only

159:07

person who took him up on it. And I go

159:09

there and he's on his bed and he uh

159:12

spoiler alert, he died in 2010 on my

159:14

birthday, which was not a fun email to

159:16

get. Anyway, and he's like he's Yeah,

159:18

he's got this really weird way of

159:20

talking. He's like, "I'm really

159:21

up, man." And I pointed out to him since

159:24

everything in his life was a disaster,

159:26

his movie got a wide release the weekend

159:29

of the blackout. There was this big

159:31

blackout. He's like, "Oh, god

159:32

damn it." And that was the weekend I had

159:35

a fish tank and I'm trying to keep them

159:37

alive with no electricity and it did not

159:40

work out.

159:41

>> So he wrote a book about me. Uh, and

159:43

that screenplay fell by the wayside.

159:46

But because it's kind of like Spinal

159:48

Tap, you know, it's this kind of funny

159:49

story about, you know, when you're

159:51

young, and anyone out there who's

159:52

listening to this, when you're young, go

159:54

for it. Be stupid. If you're gonna fail,

159:57

it's okay. It's still something exciting

159:59

to try and to do, which they certainly

160:00

did. Um, and now I'm like, wait a

160:03

minute, this converts to a graphic novel

160:05

uh uh very easily. There's a guy named

160:07

Eric July who has this whole kind of

160:09

empire. He did a Kickstarter. He made

160:10

like a million for his first one. It's

160:12

called The Ripperverse. And now they're

160:15

at a point where you don't have to go

160:16

through DC or Marvel to produce your

160:19

product. So I'm super excited about it.

160:22

Again, I started this in 2000 and now

160:25

it's finally 26 years later coming to

160:28

fruition. So

160:29

>> awesome.

160:29

>> unwantedbook.com. All right.

160:31

>> I'm just really kind of it's it's very

160:33
