#2046 - Brian Redban

[0] Joe Rogan podcast, check it out.

[1] The Joe Rogan experience.

[2] Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.

[3] What's going on?

[4] Hi.

[5] We are at the verge of World War III.

[6] Yeah.

[7] You know what?

[8] Here's this crazy, man. I've been freaking out over the last, like, few weeks, like, at nighttime.

[9] Like, at nighttime, I'll be alone, and I just start thinking about the future of the world.

[10] And I start, like, legit freaking out.

[11] Like, what would happen if we were.

[12] like legit Armageddon Mad Max nuclear war like how far are we away from that and it just it's you just give me anxiety before I go to sleep I'd just be laying there going fuck like how does this all resolve and then this fucking Israel thing pops off and now I'm like legit freaked out I've been definitely buying a lot of stuff lately for my house like into the world shit like I'm getting Tesla solar right now you know battery packs so I can live off the grid and yeah that's a good move yeah if you can get your house solar that's a big move just fucking a bit of you know at a certain point time what is it what's the electricity even getting you other than keeping the lights on what i'm scared of is like all communications are gone like how how hard would it be to shut down our power grid how hard would it be to blow a few satellites up and no one knows shit yeah that's why like that that that that star link the you know the satellites thing i'm thinking about getting that even that i have i have great internet but yeah you know just because oh what if it's yeah it's scary yeah I was in the mountains in Utah and they had Starlink and it was great it works everywhere but people keep thinking it's UFOs oh yeah like people keep filming it flying what is that yeah the dots in the air dude everybody's looking for UFOs now like more than ever yeah ring ring cameras are putting out a million dollar bounty if you catch something on your ring cameras right now they will pay you a million dollars that's good because they know they don't have to pay that Yeah, exactly.

[13] It's like sweet, very smart.

[14] Did you see that one in Vegas that they captured on a camera?

[15] Like the dashboard cam of a police car caught this thing streaking through the sky.

[16] And then this family said that it landed in their backyard and that these tall creatures got out of it.

[17] They saw the tall creatures.

[18] But then when George Knapp was going to interview them, like I think it was on two separate occasions, they just fucking wouldn't answer the door.

[19] Oh, really?

[20] Yeah.

[21] But I think also.

[22] I mean, they might have been just, they might have made the whole story up, right?

[23] That's most likely.

[24] But also, imagine how freaked out you'd be if all of a sudden the whole world wanted to talk to you because of a UFO in your backyard.

[25] And I don't know if they're illegal.

[26] I believe they spoke Spanish.

[27] See if you can find that story.

[28] Because it was, at the beginning, I was like, whoa.

[29] And then I was like, what?

[30] Right.

[31] You know, it's one of those things that you wanted to be true.

[32] So you start, you start, like, going, whoa, what is going on with this story?

[33] and then you read it, more you read into it, and more like, hmm.

[34] Yeah, that's all those stories, right?

[35] Every one of them.

[36] Yeah.

[37] It's never like, oh, we filmed it on the new iPhone.

[38] Look how crisp it is.

[39] The only ones that I ever really make me pause are the ones from the military guys.

[40] And the ones from the military guys, the more I think about it, the more I think that is some absolute top secret shit that the United States government has developed.

[41] I think they have some, super high -tech drone technology that operates on some very sophisticated propulsion system that we're not aware of.

[42] Or different countries, you know.

[43] I think it's America.

[44] The reason why I think it's America is because these things always happen where military bases are.

[45] Like one of them happened off the coast of the Nimitz and San Diego.

[46] You know, San Diego's where all the seals are.

[47] That's where a bunch of military base.

[48] There's like a bunch of exercises that go on in the sea outside of San Diego.

[49] So that makes sense.

[50] And they were doing fighter jet testing and training out there.

[51] That's how they saw this thing.

[52] So that kind of makes sense to me. And then the other ones are in the East Coast, again, in the same kind of airspace where these guys practice all the time.

[53] And I had this one guy on Ryan Graves, and he said that when they upgraded the equipment on their jets in 2014, I believe, that's when they started seeing all these things.

[54] That's when they're like, what the fuck is going on?

[55] know.

[56] Is that an accident?

[57] Like, if they wanted to find out, you know, like, whether or not these things were, you could detect them, you know, whether or not we could employ them, or deploy them rather, without anybody knowing, and then you test them with your own guys?

[58] Like, I would.

[59] He goes, hey, here's the rules.

[60] Don't shoot at those things.

[61] If you see him, we don't know what the fuck they are.

[62] But they probably do know what the fuck they are, but also real aliens.

[63] I'm, I leave everything on the table.

[64] I think if you had a pot, of the UFO pie, right?

[65] Most of it's bullshit.

[66] Like a good 70, 65 % is bullshit.

[67] That's a really low.

[68] You know me. Come on, man. I got an alien problem.

[69] I got a real alien problem.

[70] I got a UFO on the desk.

[71] We got a fucking alien head on the wall.

[72] But I'm also a realist, at least in some ways.

[73] And I look at it and I go, okay, most of it's just bullshit.

[74] And then misunderstandings.

[75] So what's misunderstandings?

[76] How many of them are shooting stars, which happened all the time?

[77] I saw one the other day.

[78] It was dope.

[79] Just the light, the sky just shot off and then it dies off.

[80] I was like, ooh, it's pretty.

[81] How many of them are just fighter jets, shit like that?

[82] Have you ever seen like a stealth bomber?

[83] Have you ever seen one of those?

[84] Yeah.

[85] In the sky?

[86] Not in the sky.

[87] I mean, I had an air museum.

[88] We were feeling Fear Factor in 2001, and it was right after 9 -11.

[89] So we were out in, um, no, not, what's the fucking city we were at?

[90] We would go there all the time, Palmdale.

[91] So Palmdale's like, way out there.

[92] A lot of crack.

[93] It was a sketchy area.

[94] But also these big, open roads that we could close down.

[95] And so we would do these stunts with like giant semi -trucks barreling down the road and these people had to climb on the outside of the truck, shit like that.

[96] And so we were out there and we saw this thing just.

[97] flying through the air like a fucking something out of Star Wars we were we everybody stopped we were like whoa it's a stealth bomber just flying through the sky they look so sick they look they look they look like they're not of this world you're talking about the blackbird right is that what it's called blackbird or so I think there's more than one of them okay the sexy one that's like all black and it looks like has muscles and shit it was sexy it was very sexy it was very black it was it was very um very spaceship looking.

[98] See if you get a video of that thing.

[99] Is there more than one?

[100] Well, there's a couple different stealth.

[101] There's the B2 stealth which is probably the big one you're talking about.

[102] Mm -hmm.

[103] On the screen.

[104] Oh, yeah, that's exactly what it looked like.

[105] That's the new one.

[106] That's exactly what it looked like.

[107] When I saw that thing, I was like, oh my God.

[108] There's a couple other ones.

[109] If you didn't know, come on, man. And you saw that thing flying through this guy.

[110] Like, give me one of those images, like that image right there to your right of your cursor right there.

[111] Yeah, click on that.

[112] If you just saw that, you'd be like, oh my God, we're getting invaded for sure especially at night can you imagine what is there video of that at night I bet that looks like a UFO but you can't see it at night like you know the whole idea is that it evades radar how does that even work oh this is that's from the ground it looks like a plane it does look a little bit like a plane but those three lights don't people always say they see like three lights in the sky it's how many other them are this thing probably a shit ton you You know?

[113] Mm -hmm.

[114] I mean, everybody always talks about a triangle -shaped craft, right?

[115] Well, there it is.

[116] Yeah.

[117] Fucking there it is.

[118] The ones that they spotted over Phoenix.

[119] Remember they had that Phoenix, the Phoenix lights?

[120] And they always say, oh, it was going slow.

[121] And then out of nowhere, it just jet out of nowhere super fast.

[122] Yeah, that's another one.

[123] Ooh, that's a nice...

[124] Yeah.

[125] But you think about it, if it has three lights under it and it's flying to the air, and it's that high, all it would have to do is turn those three lights off.

[126] And you're like, oh, my God, it disappears.

[127] Yeah.

[128] You know?

[129] You wouldn't even, you would have no idea what's going on.

[130] So now on the ground like that, that looks like a jet.

[131] Like a super dope jet.

[132] What's the other one?

[133] I think we have a drone.

[134] I think I was looking at one that's like not officially, I think it's like the SR -72 hasn't been officially announced.

[135] What's that one in the far left?

[136] The white one?

[137] Yeah, that looks like a spaceship.

[138] Look at that thing.

[139] Wow, that looks cool.

[140] Fuck yeah, it looks cool.

[141] I mean, if you were, you know, like when I was in high school, In the 1980s, he told me, like, what a jet's going to look like in 2003?

[142] I'm like, oh, I like that, or 2023, really?

[143] I'd be like that, that kind of shit.

[144] Yeah, that's an unmanned aircraft.

[145] That's 10 years ago.

[146] Whoa.

[147] Yeah, see, so 10 years ago.

[148] So this thing off the coast of the Nimitz, this is 2004.

[149] So that's almost 20 years ago.

[150] That's the only thing that gives me pause.

[151] I was like, did they really have that kind of technology 20 years ago where something could jet off into the sky and go from 50 ,000 feet of LovC level to zero?

[152] and a second.

[153] Did they have that back then?

[154] Maybe.

[155] Maybe they had that, but just they didn't have any way to use it.

[156] And so they just hold on to it.

[157] I mean, like, what would you use that for?

[158] Like, if they did have it, here's the thing, if they had something like that, like the Tick -Tac, have you seen the Tick -Tac one?

[159] That's the videos that gives, that's the one that's the most legit because it's two separate jets, multiple eyeballs on this thing, video evidence of this thing, radar data.

[160] Check this thing out.

[161] This is a Chinese drone and it says it moves with burst of compressed air to maneuver.

[162] This test bed drone influenced its upcoming six generation fighter design.

[163] New drone features active flow technology which uses bursts of high pressure air from actuators embedded in the aircraft's body for maneuvering instead of traditional moving controlled surfaces such as, I don't know how to say that, air ailerons rudders and elevators wow so it uses compressed air to flutter and maneuver but what does that thing do if winds are fucked up can it push against the winds like how's that air work probably falls apart it's made in china bro they made your phone they make great stuff too but that's the funny thing right we would think made in china's cheap bitch made in china's everything Yeah.

[164] We can't make a single phone over here.

[165] That is the dumbest thing of all time.

[166] Is that crazy?

[167] They've been talking about it on the stage.

[168] Not hard.

[169] If China could do it.

[170] You know, we've talked about this before, but if they made a phone in America and you didn't have to feel terrible about people working in the coal mine or the cobalt mines to get the cobalt out of the ground.

[171] And if you didn't have to feel terrible about people working 16 hours a day, sleeping in cots, jumping off the roof, manufacturing it, you'd be happy to pay a little more.

[172] Okay, unlike traditional AFC, which uses high pressure air to maneuver an aircraft, plasma AFC works by using a thin membrane in front of a flying wing aircraft which ionizes air molecules.

[173] The ionized air molecules generate a plasma shower that accelerates the airflow, which can keep the craft from stalling if it goes down a particular airspeed.

[174] for example china's plasma aFC is claimed to prevent stalls even if the aircraft speed drops to unusually low 108 kilometers per hour and that's funny that's low but that's like what is that 108 is like 60 5 something 70 like what's a 200 miles an hour or 200 kilometers is like 60 miles an hour right because i know that from cars you know like we we were supposed to adopt the metric system when I was in fucking grammar school, bro.

[175] Yeah.

[176] We were supposed to get on board with soccer, and we were supposed to get on board with the metric system.

[177] Celsius, right?

[178] Yep, yep.

[179] That's part of it.

[180] It's all, ours is so goofy.

[181] So stupid.

[182] Ours is second only to England.

[183] England still uses stone for people.

[184] He weighs 16 stone.

[185] What's that?

[186] I think it's 13 pounds?

[187] Is that what a stone is?

[188] Something like that.

[189] That's like 13 points on something.

[190] We googled it once, like, what the root of that was.

[191] Like, they had just made a measurement in the fucking...

[192] 14 pounds?

[193] Yeah.

[194] So that's, like, from back in the, you know, probably the barbarian days.

[195] This stone will be how we measure food and gold.

[196] You know, and however many of them, you know, we have three stone.

[197] It's just like, it's so medieval.

[198] Stone.

[199] That's ridiculous.

[200] Yeah, it's weird.

[201] But it's weird that we're not all on board with one measurement, and we fucked it up.

[202] Like, we easily could have gave up on inches.

[203] What do we, like, fucking, oh, we really committed to inches?

[204] What?

[205] Are we really committed to yards?

[206] Are yards important to you?

[207] Why isn't it meters?

[208] The whole world's meters.

[209] At least we're all going to USBC now, right?

[210] That's the one thing, that in straws.

[211] But they had to get threatened by Europe to go to USBC.

[212] Yeah.

[213] Apple loves their wall.

[214] Garden.

[215] Ooh, they're so good at it.

[216] They're the best at it.

[217] They really are.

[218] That company is amazing what it's done because it's taking something that everyone has, a cell phone, and making it so if you have theirs, it's significantly better.

[219] You can send each other videos.

[220] You can do the FaceTime.

[221] It's native to the phone.

[222] You don't have to download anything.

[223] It works on everybody's phone now, even works on an Android phone.

[224] You can air drop.

[225] And then if you get a new phone, all of your shit just transfers over instantly.

[226] And if you, like, are a comic and you have your notes on your phone, like, oh, it's so sweet.

[227] He just like, oh, my God, I lost my phone.

[228] I lost on my notes.

[229] No, I didn't.

[230] Log on, bang, new phone, bang, there's your notes.

[231] You know, they're just so good.

[232] And I know Android has a lot of those features.

[233] I know it does.

[234] Usually before.

[235] Don't get mad.

[236] Yeah, they're better than ever.

[237] at innovation they're the first to make foldables they have legit foldables now you're showing me yours the other day that pixel yeah dude that is sweet yeah that is fucking sweet apple needs to jump on that you know they will in like two years they'll have a foldable i bet they'll be way behind the curve yeah but they won't have the crease i bet that's the big thing i gotta tell you it bummed me out when i found out that samsung was faking those moon pictures it really bummed me out yeah because you actually told me about it or you sent me one and you were like oh yeah and that made me buy the Galaxy S -21 or whatever it was at the time.

[238] I was like, I have to get this.

[239] And it's still, you know, yeah, it's still fine, I guess.

[240] The camera's incredible.

[241] The camera's amazing.

[242] It's a very, very, very good camera, but so's the iPhone camera.

[243] The only thing that the Samsung camera legitimately does do is it zooms in way better.

[244] They can zoom in from, like, it's crazy zoom.

[245] I know it's electronic.

[246] It's like optical up to a certain extent.

[247] Five, I think.

[248] Yeah, and then it goes, what does Apple's do?

[249] Apple's is five and It zooms in, but the megapixels are bigger on the Galaxy S -23 and stuff like that, ultra.

[250] Right.

[251] But, I mean, where are you looking at your phone, your pictures for the most part?

[252] You're looking at them on your phone.

[253] So how much of a difference does that make?

[254] It's not that big of a difference.

[255] It's the quality of the lens and stuff.

[256] Like the new iPhone is like 48 megapixels, but their new zoom is this new zoom lens.

[257] It's five optical now.

[258] But so many of the tests show like the quality of the two.

[259] you know, the Galaxy S -23 Alter, it's like almost exactly the same, and it's like twice the megapixels.

[260] So megapixels doesn't really matter anymore.

[261] It's actually the detail up to a certain point of megapixels.

[262] But doesn't megapixels matter, say like if you want, like one of the things Sony has one of the most interesting phones because Sony is out there wilding.

[263] And what Sony's done is they said, look, no one's buying this.

[264] But we're just going to make a phone with the craziest fucking camera we could put on it with the most professional features.

[265] Like a guy like you or Jamie Jamie really knows how to work a camera You know, like And a lot of people that are like Legit photographers They love that Sony phone Because you can You go into it It's like a computer There's so many features So many options What is it called?

[266] Oh, the new one It has like the same kind of set up As like a They're like professional camera lens Like the menus and stuff Like the Yeah, MKBHD Yeah He went over it Yeah And he was just talking about Like who's his phone for Because this camera's incredible.

[267] It does so many things.

[268] It's all the options are it's for someone who really understands settings and you really want to go and you can make movies with that man like legit movies with that phone.

[269] Well that what's funny though is that's just software for the most part and you could actually download programs on your iPhone and do exactly the same stuff.

[270] Oh really?

[271] Yeah yeah yeah.

[272] Oh it's not it's not the quality of the cameras.

[273] I mean the lens is great and stuff but I would really like to see it versus the new iPhone and I bet the iPhone's probably better.

[274] Interesting.

[275] So if you used a similar program yeah it's like a camera raw i forget the name of the do you use one of those jamie do you ever use one of them camera no i'm taking a photo like that i wouldn't use my iPhone the iPhone is just like when i'm at the concert i just try to take the best thing i can real quick yeah the correct answer for that's the best camera is always the one you have on you not the one you right go by or whatever what is the most useless film footage of all time that people never watch fireworks thank you unless it's just a journaling thing but unless it's like a self -journal i was Here on 4th of July, these people were with me. That was a song playing.

[276] Yeah, no, that's kind of cool.

[277] But that's other than that, you're never going to watch him.

[278] Yeah, get the fuck out of here.

[279] You can buy legit fireworks in Texas.

[280] And my poor boy, Marshall, Marshall, who's the sweetest?

[281] He is so scared of lightning and so scared of thunder and fireworks rather.

[282] He won't, like, he won't sit still.

[283] Like, we'll try to just watch TV with him.

[284] He's just jumping up on the couch with you and jumping on the ground.

[285] I'm like, dude, settle.

[286] Yeah, same.

[287] It's okay, buddy.

[288] Panting.

[289] I thought that if he sat next to me and I pet him, he would be cool.

[290] But nope.

[291] He was like, I gotta get out of here.

[292] We're getting bombed.

[293] Firework.

[294] And he wasn't like that before.

[295] I don't know what set it off.

[296] Moving to Texas set it off.

[297] Well, I think it's because people are doing them all my block.

[298] Yeah.

[299] And we don't have lightning really in L .A. Right.

[300] Bro, we get so lightning out here.

[301] It's different, right?

[302] It's not regular lightning.

[303] It's kind of like war lightning or something.

[304] It's scary.

[305] It's real.

[306] It's real.

[307] It's the shit that the people had a face in the covered wagons and they're trying to make their way across here.

[308] Terrifying.

[309] A lightning hit right across from my house.

[310] It just, it cried.

[311] It was like I saw the bolt through the sky, the sky lit up, and instantly you heard, boom!

[312] And I was like, whoa, it's right there.

[313] I said you had a photo of down the street from my house.

[314] That whole house blew up from a thing of lightning.

[315] the whole thing oh that's right you know who almost got hit Forrest Galante I figured you knew yeah I saw the video he was in a river and he all I'm like a foot away from him two feet away from him I mean he would have been dead and this fucking dude goes you know who he is he's a wildlife biologist look at right behind him show that again it'll do it again is there sound to this I'm trying it so he's out there in the water nothing I don't know.

[316] Can you get no sound?

[317] I'm waiting.

[318] Yeah, I don't know.

[319] You could edit it.

[320] There it is.

[321] Boom.

[322] Oh, shit.

[323] So where did it hit?

[324] I think behind them?

[325] Yeah.

[326] You made a longer video about it.

[327] And this says he says I got hit by lightning.

[328] He says he felt it.

[329] Well, of course he felt it.

[330] It's probably right next to him.

[331] I mean, if you stand in the water.

[332] Oh, yeah, that's right.

[333] It's in the water.

[334] Does the water conduct the electricity?

[335] I mean, there has to be a certain.

[336] Yeah, it has to dilute it a little.

[337] I remember growing up there, like, don't take a shower when it's.

[338] Yeah.

[339] Or get on the phone for whatever reason, but I guess it could go through the power.

[340] Well, obviously, when people kill people, they throw a toaster in the bathtub, right?

[341] Right.

[342] That was the thing that people would do or kill themselves.

[343] What a fucked up with is.

[344] Can you imagine?

[345] Throw a toaster in a bathtub.

[346] But I wonder, like, it's got to be, at a certain point, it doesn't work anymore, right?

[347] Otherwise, it would kill everything in the river.

[348] Yeah.

[349] Yeah, it killed the whole ocean.

[350] Right.

[351] So it has to be like a distance where it doesn't do that anymore.

[352] Yeah.

[353] You don't have sound?

[354] The computer, I don't have sound on it for some reason.

[355] Oh, you want to reboot?

[356] Let me just figure it out for one second.

[357] Okay.

[358] If you have to reboot, just let us know.

[359] Yeah, that's a fucked up way to go.

[360] My friend Remy got hit by Lightning when he was a kid.

[361] Really?

[362] It fucked him up.

[363] He said, yeah, I think it fucked up his hearing for a long time.

[364] And, you know, he woke up outside and realized what had happened.

[365] It's always weird when people get hit by Lightning multiple times.

[366] It's like, how is that possible?

[367] I wonder what that is.

[368] Do you think some people are just like, there's something about them or God, like get the fuck out of here or they're just idiots they're always like out in rainstorms holding like umbrellas but there was one dude I think he had a record he got electrocuted but he got hit by lightning like six or seven times like something bonkers yeah within like a week there's some people like they you must be thinking God's trying to get rid of you yeah probably that's a crazy way to die a bolt of electricity comes out of the heavens like back in the day imagine being like back in the Roman days and not knowing what the fuck's going on, and you see someone get hit by lightning, because they had swords and shit.

[369] I hereby take this land.

[370] Bitch ain't taking shit.

[371] And that's how He -Man became.

[372] They probably thought back then that the gods were angry at that person.

[373] I mean, how many guys were holding up a sword and they got hit by lightning?

[374] Right.

[375] I'm sure a lot.

[376] I'm probably like, thousands.

[377] They're always on mountains, you know?

[378] What a way to go.

[379] No wonder what they had, like, God of thunder You know They thought like the gods made decisions To take someone out What a fucked up God that would be If that really was what's going on And guys like this fucking guy Just Just blows you up Do you see that kid that got electrocuted There were three kids sitting on a train track And one of them like leans back To like lean back And he hit the third rail Oh my God And then his girlfriend looked over And he sees him going like this And grabs him And then she gets electric.

[380] Oh, my God.

[381] Did they all die?

[382] Last I heard, they both went to the hospital, so I don't know.

[383] But the video is disturbing because the kid just kind of lays back.

[384] I don't even want to see that, man. It's a haunting video, for sure.

[385] We can't unshue that.

[386] Any of those electricity videos, like the people with, like, the power line guys, there's videos or...

[387] It happened to a kid at a college campus recently in Ohio, I think.

[388] He climbed a power pole.

[389] I'm surprised it doesn't happen more.

[390] I don't think he died, though.

[391] There was one where I was watching a guy It was some other country They were speaking in different languages Climbing up trying to fix something On a power line And he got zapped And he just fell Just fell backwards Like 50 feet And you're watching them fall Fucked up way to go Yeah Working on power Like electricians Boy, you better know What the fuck you're doing That's why building regulations Are so goddamn important When people are like You know we need less regulation No you don't Yeah No, you need building regulation, dude.

[392] Have you ever had a problem where builders built something in your house, squirrelly?

[393] Oh, yeah.

[394] Yeah.

[395] It's real.

[396] There's some squirrelly dudes out there.

[397] They don't pay attention to the regs.

[398] They don't look at how they're making things and whether or not they're doing it correctly or doing in a dangerous way.

[399] People are goofy.

[400] Jesus.

[401] There we go.

[402] Now we got sound.

[403] You can start playing your Mariah Carey song.

[404] I would make sure it's a red song.

[405] Jimmy's playlist gets revealed.

[406] I was careful.

[407] It's all Taylor Swift.

[408] I was careful.

[409] Deaf tones song on purpose.

[410] Devtones.

[411] I forgot about deaf tones.

[412] Oh, yeah.

[413] Did you go to ACL this weekend?

[414] No, no, I did.

[415] It's too cuckoo for me. But I've seen a lot of concerts lately.

[416] Man, Austin is such a great fucking place in terms of, like, how many artists roll through here?

[417] I used to think, like, God, if you live there, like, fucking, you'd have to go somewhere to see everything.

[418] No, everything comes here.

[419] Everything comes here.

[420] Chris Rock, David Chappelle, every fucking band, Roger Waters.

[421] We've seen so many concerts here.

[422] It's been incredible.

[423] It's been incredible.

[424] Zach Bryan.

[425] So many concerts.

[426] So much going on here.

[427] Jelly Roll was here the other day.

[428] Oh, yeah.

[429] He's jelly roll.

[430] He's the best.

[431] What a nice guy, huh?

[432] I love him.

[433] He's so sweet to everybody.

[434] He's just all hugs and love.

[435] The moment I met him.

[436] You know, they told me the jelly roll was coming up to see Ron White, and I happened to be at the club.

[437] I wasn't even working that night.

[438] I was being like a manager.

[439] It was like when the club was just, I was just sort of making sure everything was cool.

[440] And I went to say hi to Ron.

[441] And they said, jelly rolls here.

[442] And I'm like, oh, man, I'm going to go meet him.

[443] And when you ever meet someone famous, you're like, you know, hope he's cool.

[444] He's like, my man, he gives me his big hug.

[445] I'm like, oh, you just how I thought you would be.

[446] Yeah.

[447] That's, I mean, that's how I was with Post Malone.

[448] Yeah.

[449] I had actually said out loud to my girlfriend months before I met him.

[450] I was like, that's one of the top five guys I want to meet in person, just hang with.

[451] cut to months later me and him are at Mitzis and we're drawing dick we're having a dick off drawing to who had to draw the best dicks he was great at it like he beat me he's so cool he's exactly how you would hope he is he's so cool he's such a kind person he's so nice and he's so talented and he's so fun and when I told him we did the podcast I'm like you want to go see Kill Tony and he's like yeah I go you want to go on stage let's do this I go come on man let's go let's go let's fucking do it He's like, all right, let's fucking do it.

[452] And he just hops up there for Kill Tony.

[453] He had no idea what Kill Tony was.

[454] And he was great.

[455] I thought he was going to be in and out like 10 minutes.

[456] No, he was great.

[457] He was amazing.

[458] And he was like supportive of people and that dude who sang opera.

[459] Yeah.

[460] How good was that guy?

[461] That was incredible.

[462] Like, bro, bailing the jokes or work that into your act somehow.

[463] Yeah.

[464] Like a guy like that with great jokes.

[465] And he did have some great jokes.

[466] Oh, yeah.

[467] He's funny.

[468] That fucking opening one minute that he had was solid.

[469] That's when they put him up against.

[470] Hans, they were going to have, like, a joke off, and apparently Hans smoked him.

[471] Yeah.

[472] And I was like, I hope that guy didn't just burn out his best material in that one minute.

[473] Probably did.

[474] Yeah.

[475] Because it was a solid bit.

[476] Yeah.

[477] I don't want to give it away, but it's a solid premise.

[478] Good bit.

[479] And I was thinking, like, if that guy hit punchlines and then sang, oh, my God.

[480] You know, like, work it into the punch lines.

[481] Yeah.

[482] Like, you know, like saying, I used to be an opera singer, and sometimes people are so fucking stupid i just want to sing at them you know what i mean like he could have a thing where because his voice is insane like when he did that like you know someone has a hidden skill like that you're like what you can play guitar and you see them fucking whoa i never thought that like that guy like who expected that to come out of that guy you know you expect like a comic he's a comic he's probably fucked off most of his life probably had a problem with drugs maybe he's got a few DUIs maybe He was in trouble with the law.

[483] You know, maybe he sold drugs when he was younger or something.

[484] There's always, like, something kooky with comics.

[485] But you see someone who's a, no, I'm a trained opera singer.

[486] Yeah.

[487] But again, that would be, like, how you would rebel.

[488] If you're, you know, you're, like, singing the classics all the time.

[489] Like, oh, my God, I want to just talk about farts.

[490] You know?

[491] You, like, get to this point where you're just like, I mean, if you, if you, like, live rigidly like if they they like that was always the thing in high school when I was in high school there was girls that went to this all -catholic school uh all -girl catholic school high school and those are the wildest girls everybody knew it it was like an open discussion like do these catholic girls are wild because they were just kept from boys and told like stay away from boys and they were never around boys during the day because all day it was just girls girls girls and all they did is talk about boys and when those girls would go to parties and like and meet guys they're like aggressive they like wanted to hook up with guys it was is different it's like and other girls like these fucking catholic school girl sluts like isn't it crazy like which is a like you know that's one of those religions where like they put the fucking breaks on you they tell you you know you're you're a sinner you know you can go to hell for this you know don't fuck around I found a song from 1970 that's a Jesus song a pro Jesus song and it fucking jams dude it's pretty interesting I'm going to send this to you Jamie Oh Jesus song Yeah it's it's I'll tell you the guy as soon as I pull it up Hold on a second my playlist is so long I keep out saying I'm going to publish this on Spotify And I swear to God I will Publish your playlist Yeah the Green Room playlist list.

[492] All right, let me share this with Jeremy.

[493] By the way, listen to Post Malone's cover of Nirvana.

[494] He did, like, he just played a bunch of Nirvana songs, like, during COVID.

[495] That's how I found out about Post.

[496] Some of the best Nirvana covers I've ever heard in my life.

[497] He just kills it.

[498] He covers Sturgle Simpson, too, man. Like, he's doing at Stagecoach, which is the thing that is connected to Coachella, the country music one.

[499] He's going to do a whole country set there.

[500] No shit.

[501] Yeah, dude, he's so talented.

[502] He's so talented.

[503] Like, when we went to see him live, we went to Houston to see his concert.

[504] Oh, you did?

[505] Yeah.

[506] Fucking amazing.

[507] The energy that guy has, it's like he just fucking goes for it.

[508] And the show is so good.

[509] The show's so solid.

[510] So exciting.

[511] It just really makes you want to do better.

[512] You know, you see someone just crush it like that.

[513] You're like, God, I'm going to fucking do better.

[514] Yeah.

[515] just everything I do I want to do better.

[516] Yeah.

[517] You get that song?

[518] Yeah, I was waiting for you guys out.

[519] Yeah, listen to the shit.

[520] This is from, I think it's from 1970.

[521] Larry Norman.

[522] Sipping whiskey from a paper.

[523] You drown your sorrows till you can't stand up.

[524] Take a look at what you done to yourself.

[525] Why don't you?

[526] You put the bottle back on the shell.

[527] Yellow finger from your cigarette.

[528] Why don't you come to Jesus?

[529] He's got the answer.

[530] Listen to this.

[531] No, listen this.

[532] It's good, man. The lyrics are good.

[533] And it's also, you have to look at it.

[534] You're in a time capsule.

[535] It was 1970.

[536] Good song, right?

[537] Yeah.

[538] Now, there's always stuff religious.

[539] I don't know.

[540] According to Wikipedia, he's one of the pioneers of Christian rock music.

[541] But this is good, dude.

[542] Yeah, this is good.

[543] Say you want to be a super.

[544] star, but you never hung around enough to find out who you really are.

[545] Yellow fingers from the cigarettes.

[546] I like that.

[547] Shooting junk until you have been saying?

[548] It's good.

[549] Gannery on Valentine's Day.

[550] It's a good fucking song.

[551] And again, 1970.

[552] See, here's the thing.

[553] I've heard of churches that are like rock and roll churches.

[554] There was this gal that I knew that worked for Fear Factor.

[555] and she was into like this rock and roll church like she, I think she had one point in time she was, I don't know what, she was of a different religious persuasion and then she got into this like heavy duty Christian church that was in town where the guy was like a cool guy, young guy.

[556] I go, is he fucking everybody?

[557] And she's like, no. I'm like, I know how those go.

[558] Like he's the cool guy?

[559] He's the cool guy who likes rock and roll.

[560] And he also likes Jesus.

[561] Maybe.

[562] Like we're always hoping.

[563] hoping for me we're always hoping for the guy that that's really all he wants to do that's really it he's just really about Jesus and love and he's not trying to fuck everybody but that guy has not shown up yet like almost all those guys you know like the guy was showing his dick root and when he's hanging out with justin jesus jesus we called that guy out a long time ago we call that guy out a long time ago like he's too hot he's too hot he's too charismatic like why he's so hot why is so charismatic maybe you like you know maybe maybe you're trying to develop a cult where like all other cults you get to bang everybody because it's like every one of them david caresh wakeo like i mean i'm sure you could go down the list it's like every one of them become like the one the holy hell for the place that i almost bought yeah guys fucking everybody god he didn't buy that Thank God, I should have.

[564] I should have.

[565] It would have been a better story.

[566] They're both good stories.

[567] The location we have now is absolutely perfect.

[568] But that location would have been dope, too.

[569] You just would have had to drive there, but people would have drove there.

[570] And also, we would have had Philip was going to do a restaurant there, Philip Franklin Lee.

[571] We had a good set up there, but there was too much shit that was like, it was like, this is not, this is not set up good.

[572] Like, there was a lot of problems.

[573] Problems to the point were like, this could take a lot.

[574] This could be a lot of issues that I don't even want to disclose.

[575] Right.

[576] It was enough where we're like, I've got to get out of this one.

[577] But then when the mothership spot, the Ritz opened up, I was like, oh, my God.

[578] This is a theater from 1927.

[579] And then we walked into it.

[580] It's like, the theater was like, this is the spot.

[581] Like, it was talking to us.

[582] It sounds so kooky.

[583] But that place, like, one of the reasons why I think it's so fun there is because the building wants us to be there.

[584] The building's happy.

[585] that building was lonely it sat there for years unoccupied alamo draft house closed down nothing was in there and you know it probably missed the music man steve very vaughan used to play there probably missed the fun the live the energy of the live crowds so like when we first opened up it's i know it sounds stupid but it's felt like the building was happy it's always had been there entertaining people music movies comedy now like it's literally never been like negative energy Well, it was a porn theater.

[586] I mean, that's even better.

[587] That was back when dudes didn't have VHS tapes.

[588] They'd have to go somewhere and whack off.

[589] Can you imagine if you got addicted to porn and the only way to get it to go to a movie theater with a raincoat off?

[590] Do you remember that place in San Francisco where it was a movie theater and there was all these people sitting there?

[591] Where was that?

[592] We were at Cobbs once and we just went into this weird, like, it was like, I think, connected to a strip club or something.

[593] But they had this whole section and I think it was me. and Ari, I thought you were with me, but we went around this corner and it was like a straight movie theater and people just sitting there like four people watching porn.

[594] Yeah, they had one of those in West Hollywood that was a gay one that was open pretty recently up until like it links like the 2000s because I remember we would always laugh about the titles.

[595] The titles were hilarious.

[596] The titles of these fucking movies were amazing.

[597] Yeah, I wonder if that's still, I doubt it's.

[598] I don't think so.

[599] I don't think it's the thing.

[600] But like that's one of those things or they get mad if dudes jerk off there, which is so kooky.

[601] It's like, what kind of a business do you think you're running?

[602] Right.

[603] You know, like, that's when Peewey Herman got arrested.

[604] That's right.

[605] Yeah, same thing.

[606] Yeah.

[607] He was at a theater.

[608] Poor guy.

[609] Poor guy.

[610] I mean, that was back when you weren't a lot of jerk off.

[611] He's just sitting there masturbate.

[612] I know, and he's a superstar.

[613] That's what's crazy.

[614] The guys is this giant global superstar.

[615] To this day, Peewee's Big Adventure.

[616] is like one of my I fucking love that movie It's so fun I remember I went to see that movie With my high school girlfriend And we were both just howling laughing We couldn't it was so silly Tell him Large Marge sent you It's so fun This fucking dude And this big adventure It was a fun movie You know It takes you on a little journey It was a good time To have that poor guy Get raked through the coals Because he was beaten off It is weird, though, when celebrities like that do stuff like that.

[617] It's almost like he wanted to get caught type thing, you know?

[618] I think it's probably, I mean, if you're, I mean, there were VHS tapes back then, though.

[619] Oh, yeah.

[620] That's just weird.

[621] That's where it gets weird.

[622] Or like George Michael going into a rest stop multiple times, you know.

[623] Yeah.

[624] I think he was tortured.

[625] I think when you have a secret like that.

[626] like your secret is like literally your sexual identity like you're like you're pretending you're into girls but you're really into guys and you get famous you get hugely famous as this you know sex symbol i gotta faith faith he's fucking talented too man he was so good and then you can't tell everybody that you're gay because you'll lose what percentage of the crowd Wham, you're screwed.

[627] Wham?

[628] You son of a bitch.

[629] So dumb.

[630] That's awful.

[631] We know a couple guys that are in the closet, and they live in hell.

[632] Yeah.

[633] They live in hell.

[634] Try working with them.

[635] That was not true.

[636] You son of a bitch.

[637] I wasn't talking about Tony.

[638] You son of a bitch.

[639] Everybody always assumes I'm talking about Tony.

[640] Tony's so straight.

[641] It's so crazy.

[642] Yeah, totally.

[643] But, yeah.

[644] Definitely Why don't you look into Jesus He got the answers Sucking dick until you go insane Dancing naked to purple brain Why don't you look into Jesus You should write your own new lyrics to do that That's good That's how if Christians really wanted to get somebody or any religion.

[645] They really want to get someone.

[646] Have some dope artwork attached to your ideology.

[647] You know, have something that people dig that's attached to it.

[648] Because if, like, if some rock and roll style, like, if there was a Jimmy Hendricks alive today and he was, like, really into, like, one certain kind of religion.

[649] You know how many people would join that religion?

[650] Uh, fuck load.

[651] A fuckload.

[652] Like, I mean, how many people looked into Islam?

[653] Because they were Khab and Nirmugamanaf fans.

[654] I bet a lot.

[655] I bet a lot.

[656] you know when you can get something awesome attached to your religion that's a good selling point it's like being a spokesperson for like you know surprised scientology hasn't done that yet you know I mean they are they are they fucking 100 % have but like have like a band that's like the soundtrack to them you know or something well and when it comes to bands I know Beck Beck's a scientificologist right is he still a Scientologist think he was and I think he backed out of it because I remember I don't know.

[657] Because I remember when I found out it was really crushed.

[658] I was like, no. Well, I know some really amazing Scientologists.

[659] Oh, gosh.

[660] Yeah.

[661] I know quite a few of them that are really, and I think it's a compartmentalization thing.

[662] I think if you can shut off that part of your brain and just give it over to like an ideology, it leaves a lot of room for the other stuff.

[663] Like how much, like I was telling you the other day, I'm sitting at home, like wondering about the fate of the Are we literally going to be in a fucking madman?

[664] Because you don't think anything's going to go bad until it goes bad.

[665] You know, you remember the day before 9 -11?

[666] It was just fucking normal America.

[667] Yeah, yeah.

[668] And then the next day, chaos.

[669] And then everyone's riding around with an American flag on their car.

[670] Yeah.

[671] Like, anything can happen.

[672] And if anything does happen, like how ready, how much is the world going to change?

[673] I mean, like, if you think about any sort of, like, horrific natural disaster that has hit humanity since the beginning of time, whether it's super volcanoes or earthquakes or any of these chaotic things.

[674] When those things happen, when the Mongols roll into your town, when Nazi Germany starts taking over Europe, like, fuck!

[675] We want to think that that can't happen.

[676] But 100 % that can happen.

[677] And when I fucking, I'm out alone at night, and I'm a little high.

[678] that's the thing that freaks me out the most.

[679] The things that freaks me up to those is international conflicts between superpowers and how they're willing to kill a certain amount of people, right?

[680] So, like, what's the number where they won't cross that line?

[681] Because if you've got groups of people that are willing to shoot missiles into apartment buildings and fly jets down and gun people down and you've seen all those crazy drone, if we're willing to kill a certain amount of people, like, what's the line where they won't cross?

[682] What's the line?

[683] Is it a million people?

[684] Is it a nuclear bomb?

[685] You know, what is the line?

[686] There's probably no line.

[687] And when you think about how much people loved America after 9 -11, the whole world was like on America side.

[688] And how much we fuck that up in 23 years or 22 years?

[689] Yeah.

[690] Fuck that up.

[691] Fuck that up.

[692] A million innocent people die because of the Iraq war.

[693] I mean, that, everybody knows that.

[694] We need a 9 -12 immediately.

[695] we probably are due for one that's the way scary when you see this israel thing like it scares the shit out of me yeah it scares the shit out of me because when i see something like that happen you know it's like there's no clear way this resolves peacefully like this is bad this is real bad and and Israel's going to go into palestine they're already bombing and there's a retaliation for that and what happens then and who what other countries get involved and fuck man it just really puts into perspective that there's some shit going on that you're not thinking about because it's not in your life so if you're a guy like you or i let's say us because we're comedian so we're hanging out of the comedy club we're doing podcasts that's our world our world is fucking around with people our world is telling jokes our world is hanging out with our friends and doing shows their world is killing people their world is controlling resources and it's not they don't play fair like they they release stories that aren't true they use disinformation to switch narratives they have social media posts that aren't real so they can get people riled up about certain things and then they're also coordinating military attacks That's their world.

[696] We just don't think about that world because we're not in that world.

[697] But people have been in that world since the beginning of time.

[698] What they've done with us is they've sheltered us in such a way and then censored all the mainstream media in such a way that they completely control the narrative of how you think about what can and cannot happen in the world and why these things are happening.

[699] And we're seeing that right now.

[700] We're seeing that.

[701] that like in your face where you're like what and you're also seeing people with massive amounts of conspiracies now right and whenever something like that happens there's always the people that are like how do they not know this was going to happen like isn't this the most sophisticated surveillance systems in the world this like israel's they're the people that invented pegasus that's that shit that gets on your phone what they can listen to anybody and they have like they're they have that iron dome that protects them against missiles did you ever see that working they were just showing it the other night show videos of the Iron Dome working it's crazy so as Hamas is launching these missiles they're shooting missiles at the missiles and blowing them up in the sky it's wild oh yeah yeah yeah yeah it's old school missile command remember that video yeah I mean you have to be 100 % accurate because any one of these is going to kill a bunch of people but I mean just imagine living in Israel and you go outside and you're seeing missiles getting hit by bombs Look at this.

[702] It's insane.

[703] Look at this.

[704] They're just jacking them in the sky.

[705] But if they miss one, that's a wrap.

[706] I mean, how much to each one of these missiles that they're shooting at these other missiles cost?

[707] Right.

[708] That's what I was thinking is millionaires, million dollars, million dollars.

[709] How are they getting all the money to shoot those missiles at Israel?

[710] Like, all of it is crazy.

[711] Yeah.

[712] And someone tweeted, see if this is true, that this happened right after the Biden administration released a bunch of funds to Iran.

[713] I think it was like $6 billion.

[714] Really?

[715] And then these people in Hamas are thanking Iran for funding this.

[716] Wow.

[717] But what's real?

[718] Yeah.

[719] What's real?

[720] That sounds like...

[721] How much of this is real?

[722] Yeah.

[723] Have you heard of this?

[724] Air Force successfully tested Secret New Stealth missile with mock nuke.

[725] We've got a stealth missile.

[726] Stealth missile.

[727] With a mock nuke.

[728] Okay.

[729] B -52.

[730] America's nuclear weapons are aging and the Pentagon plans to spend more than 600 billion to keep the potentially world -ending weapons in fighting shape.

[731] What a great idea.

[732] At this article I saw it said that they were being controlled by floppy disks up until 2019.

[733] Well, those are accurate.

[734] It is top of the food chain.

[735] They're updating tech.

[736] Okay, floppy disks in 2019, but some of the old tech is still solid.

[737] The LRSO and mock nuke were fired from a B -52, a sturdy and reliable bomber first manufactured in the 50s.

[738] The missiles are in fact designed.

[739] to work with this decades -old bomber.

[740] But a stealth nuke is crazy.

[741] That's crazy.

[742] All of it's crazy.

[743] The fact that that's on the table, all of it's crazy.

[744] And also the fact that we haven't nuked anybody since 1945, nobody's nuked anybody.

[745] That's good.

[746] It's promising.

[747] It's promising.

[748] We got to celebrate 100 years.

[749] But it's hard to imagine that it's going to last like that forever.

[750] It seems like someone's going to get crazy.

[751] That's the question.

[752] It's like if you're willing to kill, each missile is $40 ,000 to $50 ,000, according to a researcher at Israel's Institute for National Security Studies.

[753] Wow.

[754] Wow.

[755] 20 of them is a million bucks.

[756] So, yeah, so the question is, where are these weapons coming from?

[757] And then there was also questions of whether or not weapons that we left in Afghanistan were being used.

[758] which is that is crazy Trump was hilarious doing this this conversation about that where he was telling them like why don't we you know get the weapons out of there why don't we film up a gas and drive him over to Pakistan and there's like he said that find a video is Millie because he's hilarious Trump literally acts like a comedian he is I mean it kind of has been the first thing yes oh okay the Biden administration administration informed Congress on Monday that it has taken concrete steps to carry out a prisoner exchange with Iran, issuing a waiver that will give Tehran access to $6 billion in Iranian oil revenue that had been blocked by U .S. sanctions, according to a State Department documents sent to Congress.

[759] And that was a month ago.

[760] That was a month ago.

[761] Yeah.

[762] On September 11th.

[763] And then, yeah, all these stories the last day, say.

[764] Yeah.

[765] So they gave them a lot of funds.

[766] Yeah, and then this happens.

[767] He needs to do a chargeback.

[768] It's just we are, yeah, call PayPal.

[769] Until we got fraud to fraud it.

[770] We're in the middle of a game that we're not aware of, just like we were talking about before.

[771] Like that's the game they play.

[772] The game they're playing is war and money.

[773] I mean, just the amount of money that's been spent in Ukraine.

[774] And like, what kind of accounting are you guys doing?

[775] Are you guys doing good accounting over there?

[776] Like, does everybody know where every fucking dollar went, or is it just like, let's go crazy?

[777] Yeah.

[778] Yeah.

[779] Exactly.

[780] Yeah.

[781] You're talking about so much money.

[782] Like, you could shove a little over here, pull a little, oh, why don't you look at it, Jesus?

[783] How do you just leave weapons, too?

[784] I mean, don't they, don't we know where all the, I mean, if we have air tags on, I don't know, book bag, shouldn't they have, like, little air tags on them?

[785] Dude, that whole pull -out was an unmitigated disaster.

[786] Nobody thinks it was good.

[787] Nobody thinks it was good.

[788] Nobody thinks it should have been done that way.

[789] I mean, Trump was trying to pull out a long time ago.

[790] And they were trying to figure out, like, how many troops you have to leave or maintain the base and get everybody out safe.

[791] It is, it's tricky, because when they know you're pulling out.

[792] But the fact they left tanks and helicopters and shit, like, shut the fuck up.

[793] Yeah, that's ridiculous.

[794] It's almost like, like if you wanted to go full tinfoil hat, if you want to ensure there's going to be more conflict, you leave weapons with the enemy, awesome weapons.

[795] If you want to ensure this is going to be more military action, these guys are pissed.

[796] You were occupying their country for 20 years, and you left behind how many billion dollars were the tanks and shit?

[797] Of course they're going to use it.

[798] And so you tell the military guys, like, yeah, we're pulling out, but here's the long play.

[799] The long play is there's, you know, no chance.

[800] I'm not going to do something with all that stuff.

[801] And so we'll probably have to go back in.

[802] And then this time we'll really go back in and we can control the lithium.

[803] Like, we can't go now.

[804] Like, if we go all in now, like, we've got to get them to do something really stupid.

[805] So then we can justify, like, a complete takeover of the country and annihilation of the people that are the problem.

[806] the people that we left tanks behind the thing about afghanistan though is like it's so it's so difficult to get through you know to we think of it as like a country but it's mountains it's like everything is mountains it's incredible landscape and there's Greek cities there's ancient greek cities that were abandoned there during the time of Alexander the great and no archaeologists or studying them.

[807] Like, it's amazing.

[808] It's an amazing place.

[809] And it also has crazy amounts of resources.

[810] In terms of, like, I think there's, like, an insane amount of lithium there.

[811] There's all sorts of shit there that's, like, really valuable.

[812] But everybody tries to take over and they all fail miserably.

[813] It's like one of the ways that they stomped out the Soviet Union was funding the Mujahideen, which later became, you know, Al -Qaeda or the Taliban.

[814] Was the Mujahideen?

[815] They become a Taliban or al -Qaeda?

[816] Either way.

[817] Like, the Russians tried to take over forever, and then they gave up.

[818] They're like, fuck this.

[819] It's like too much.

[820] You can't win over there.

[821] It's like you can't even go anywhere.

[822] Can't get through the mountains.

[823] You can't just drive.

[824] You can't just drive tanks through.

[825] It's a fucking wild place, an almost unconquerable place.

[826] It would be cool to see in the future if that does eventually become, somewhere where you could go and enjoy the...

[827] It used to be.

[828] People used to go.

[829] There's like videos of people walking around the streets of Kabul.

[830] It used to be a place that people would go and vacation.

[831] Yeah.

[832] Force fields.

[833] Come on, force fields.

[834] Dude, none of that's going to help.

[835] It all goes back to force fields.

[836] Yes, if we come in, put a big force field there.

[837] I don't think so.

[838] We leave our force fields behind.

[839] Yeah, I feel safe for living in Austin, though, now that we're in the middle of a country, just in case of war goes crazy.

[840] unless they decide to like nuke Dallas yeah you know one of the things that people are really concerned with is like what if terror cells have gotten in across the border when you're letting in hundreds of thousands of people across the border what are the odds that a few of them are terrorists well haven't they caught terrorists at the border haven't they like caught terrorist people on the terrorist watch list trying to get through they have right yeah definitely so how many of them snuck through I mean, is there an accurate accounting or is it like Ukraine spending?

[841] Do they even know the real numbers of people that are sneaking in?

[842] Because the numbers are cuckoo.

[843] The numbers are like hundreds of thousands a month.

[844] Have you seen the videos of the line of migrants making their way through the border?

[845] Like, who thought that was a good idea?

[846] Who thought that was a good idea to like let potential terrorists and criminals into the country?

[847] That's why you need to build this wall, Joe.

[848] Because if you say that you're against that, you're racist.

[849] Right.

[850] Which is wild.

[851] Yeah.

[852] And you've got to wonder how much of that is engineered by other countries.

[853] How much of that is like engineered social media outrage by Russia?

[854] China buying up all our properties.

[855] That's crazy.

[856] You find out that China owns so much.

[857] I was in Greece this summer.

[858] And when you're walking around those ruins and you see like what it used to be.

[859] and you go, I wonder if they saw it coming.

[860] Wonder if they thought this building was going to be here, perfect forever.

[861] They'd be operating their government out of this building.

[862] You know, it's probably been thousands of years they were running it like that.

[863] Nope.

[864] Go back now.

[865] It's just rubble.

[866] Like, when it happens, does anybody know it's going to, or is it like right now where you're like, boy, it seems like we're at the brink of everything falling apart.

[867] Chaos.

[868] Like, just the amount of things that, people have to be upset about an amount of polarizing things whether it's trans kids or climate change or pro -life or pro -choice or pro -Ukraine or whatever the subject is everybody's screaming everybody's convinced on one side that it has to be this way and everybody the other side is like those people are the end of civilization those people are the fucking death of democracy.

[869] It's so polarized.

[870] And I think that has to be social media.

[871] And some of that has to be engineered.

[872] Some of that, we know that there's a ton of trolls out there that aren't really people that are either from another country or maybe from our country that are just literally designed to stir shit up and attack things and go after stuff.

[873] And then when you find out that our own government was actually censoring social media and contacting Twitter and them to delete posts or trying to get them delete things that they try to get Facebook to delete this Tucker Carlson thing that turned out to be true it was true what he was saying was accurate and they were like we can't delete it because it's accurate so they they lessened its reach by 50 % because the government told them to to hide the truth the government told them to hide the truth like that's in this age where everything's going crazy and no one knows what's right and what's wrong that's scary man but that's what's happening in Canada right now.

[874] Oh, you know?

[875] Full -blown.

[876] Full -blown.

[877] I wonder if my podcast will even be able to air in Canada.

[878] Probably not, right?

[879] I wonder.

[880] People in Canada, you have to think about what the fuck they're doing because you think that they think that they're doing it, some people believe they're doing it, you know, because of this misinformation that's online.

[881] Try to get a detailed audit of what is actually misinformation that they called misinformation, and what turns out to be actual 100 % fact now.

[882] It's a lot of it, kids.

[883] And the only way we find that out is if people are allowed to talk freely.

[884] And they might be wrong, and they might get things wrong, and they might be right.

[885] But you got to let them talk.

[886] And that is the only way we find out.

[887] Because if you think that silencing them and getting people who you know lie to be in charge of what can be said and what not can be said, that's the road to tyranny.

[888] That's the road to communism.

[889] That's the scary road.

[890] Not the kind of communism that everybody hopes for where we all just redistribute wealth and everybody gets along.

[891] No, a totalitarian government that tells you what to do and fucking lies about everything.

[892] And they're playing that war game.

[893] You're playing the, I'm Brian Redband, you know, I'm the co -producer of Kill Tony, and, you know, I go on the road, I do stand -up, I'm a fun guy.

[894] That's the world you're in.

[895] That's the game you're playing.

[896] They're playing the war game.

[897] And they want to be able to tell you what you can and can't talk about.

[898] That's fucking scary shit, especially in this climate.

[899] This fucking weird polarizing climate.

[900] It's like, oh, God, everybody's so angry.

[901] What happened, though, to Canada?

[902] Remember, you know, just 15 years ago, I would always consider them being so progressive, especially with marijuana and everything like that.

[903] And you used to go there and go, like, man, this is like a, you know, a chill USA, you know?

[904] Yeah, I loved it there.

[905] Yeah.

[906] I was like, they were like 20 % less douchebacks in Canada.

[907] That's what I always used to say when we went up there.

[908] We always used to look forward to doing gigs in Vancouver and Toronto and Montreal.

[909] I still love the Montreal Comedy Festival.

[910] It was so fun, man. Those were the days.

[911] They were cool people, man. But they got fucked.

[912] That government came in and fucked them.

[913] And it keeps fucking them.

[914] Like that whole Canadian trucker thing where people who donated money to them got their bank accounts frozen.

[915] Like, hey, that's banana republic shit.

[916] That's not supposed to be going on in Canada.

[917] Yeah.

[918] But it was all because of COVID.

[919] COVID gave them this reason to flex their authority in very creepy ways.

[920] That's what you have to be always to be scared of when any kind of disaster happens.

[921] or a war or something crazy in attack because that they always use as an opportunity to get more power that you would never agree to earlier like no one would have agreed to what's in the patriot act they tried that before they tried it before and everybody's like get the fuck out of here so they put it on the shelf most of those ideas that were in the patriot act they had already tried to weasel those in and then when it came along and there was 9 -11 they're like fuck it let's roll it out patriot we're patriots who's going to say no to patriot act aren't we patriots And then there was the NDAA, which gave them the ability to indefinitely detain people without charging them.

[922] Like, what?

[923] Like, you want the right to do that without judges and lawyers?

[924] And you want the right to do that?

[925] What if you're wrong?

[926] That's crazy.

[927] What if you're wrong?

[928] What if someone's a corrupt person involved in that administration and that person that you're going to get arrested is actually like a whistleblower for a corporation or something?

[929] But, you know, you have too much power.

[930] It's too much.

[931] Why don't you look into Jesus?

[932] He got the answers.

[933] Yeah, this is what keeps me up at night.

[934] This is what keeps me up at night.

[935] The possibility that we don't understand that there's a game being played that we're a part of.

[936] We're little pawns.

[937] No matter how cool you think you are, you're just a little pawn in this global game.

[938] of war and it's real life consequences real life people get killed that's what's terrifying yeah that's why I feel it feels so good every time I go to Costco and I get like a bunch of water and a bunch of like just tons of food I'm like okay can happen now I'm set but you're not if it really happens we're just so fucked you can't even imagine so fucked you can't imagine this idea they're like oh I'm just going to live in the woods and hunt dude who knows what's going to be coming for you.

[939] Who knows?

[940] Who knows?

[941] You've seen the video from the footage of Ukraine in Russia where they're fighting in the woods.

[942] It's terrifying.

[943] That's happening right now.

[944] Right now in 2023, there's people running through the woods, shooting at people they don't know and killing them.

[945] And as much as people want to look at it and say, oh, you know, Russia shouldn't have done that and NATO shouldn't have done this.

[946] And as much as you want to say that, what's going on is people who don't know each other are being led by a giant organization and they're going to kill people that they don't know.

[947] People who don't know each other are going to kill people who have no conflict to these people.

[948] They don't even know them.

[949] They're going to go kill them.

[950] And those people are going to try and come kill you.

[951] That's the reality of this fucking insanity.

[952] And that only exists when you have groups of people that are controlling groups of people and then they move them around and then they put bases places And then they attack things, and then they fund this and fund that and, you know, and get this guy out of fucking office.

[953] Get this guy out of power and bring in your own little stooge.

[954] And then that guy gets killed.

[955] And ah, they're playing this Game of Thrones shit on a global scale.

[956] And we're just trying to buy a new iPhone.

[957] Oh, look, I got the new one.

[958] USBC finally.

[959] You know?

[960] It is nice.

[961] It is nice.

[962] But that's the thing.

[963] It's like we're fucking powerless.

[964] in this thing and it seems like the elections are they do their very best to make sure that they win whether or not it's legal or illegal what they're doing like what they're doing with robert kennedy junior yeah it's crazy did he become an independent yet i mean no he he's going to i think i yeah i don't know he said he's got some announcement and most people are speculating right but if you're an independent are you kind of can you win no see that's why i think that would hurt him Like, you know, we've all seen in the past, even like, what, was it, Ross Perrault?

[965] We're like, oh, my God, he might have a chance.

[966] And then he's like, 2 % or so.

[967] It seems to me like the more time goes on, Trump has a shoe -in.

[968] Mm -hmm.

[969] It seems like if this shit gets getting crazier and crazier, this is going to be a lot of liberals that will vote for him.

[970] He was the one in the beginning of we got to stop people from dying.

[971] Like, do you want Ukraine to win this war?

[972] Remember that conversation?

[973] He's like, I want people to stop dying.

[974] like which is the best answer any politician has ever given and the way he said it see if you can find that thing though we was talking about milly we was talking about um leaving stuff over in afghanistan i might have saved it because it was so it was so funny like the way he was saying it you see the thing that he was saying about um the uh electric tanks no that's hilarious too he was talking about they're gonna make electric tanks they're gonna be great for the environment the not going to work well they're not going to run long they're going to blow the fucking shit out of everything it's going to be no charging stations but it's going to be good for the environment and the way he said it was like a guy doing stand -up oh that's funny yeah let me find this bookmark yeah electric tanks does not seem like a good idea i'm out of charge yeah it's it sounds it sounds insane i don't i don't know where i saved it jamie can you find it i mean i'm Look, and there's a bunch of stuff about it, so I'm trying to find...

[975] It's him talking about, he goes, that's when I knew the...

[976] Oh, this guy's a fucking idiot.

[977] That's what he says.

[978] I just found the quote, not the video.

[979] But the way he says it, it's like he sets it up, like he's setting up a punchline.

[980] Like, he sets up the store, sir, it would be cheaper to leave them over.

[981] He's like, oh, that's what I realized.

[982] That guy's a fucking idiot.

[983] To see a guy like him talk like that?

[984] Find it?

[985] Keeper.

[986] leave it there so they can have it that it is to fill it up with a half a tank of gas and fly it into Pakistan or fly it back to our country you look you sure we think it's stupid sir that's when I realized I was a fucking idiot good timing even holds yeah he's holding the laughter fucking guy he's always been an entertainer though I mean I was a funny guy of the biggest apprentice fans ever.

[987] I had all his books because of The Apprentice.

[988] Well, he's always a great guest on talk shows.

[989] Yeah, great guest on Howard Stern show.

[990] You know, it's just, do you want that run in the country?

[991] Well, do you want what you have run in the country either?

[992] No, what you want is peace.

[993] And how the fuck do you get it?

[994] And I don't even know if he can, I don't know if anybody can do it.

[995] Yeah, I mean, see, that's the problem I think a lot of people had with him, right?

[996] Like, he was the opposite of peace.

[997] He just, you know, divided everybody, you know.

[998] He definitely divided everybody's opinions in this country.

[999] but a lot of it was based on bullshit.

[1000] A lot of it was the Russia collusion stuff where people really did legitimately believe that Russia had put him into power.

[1001] And, like, there was people that were thinking he was a Russian agent.

[1002] And, you know, it was all horseshit.

[1003] But they can say stuff like that and they can, you know, they can get you believing.

[1004] You know, they can get you believing.

[1005] And a lot of people, they just surface -level everything.

[1006] They don't look into any of it.

[1007] They surface -level everything.

[1008] Like when Robert Kennedy Jr. was being called an anti -Semite for saying that it seems like COVID -19, like that they have viruses that specifically target certain genetics.

[1009] He's just saying that the technology is possible, right?

[1010] He's saying that not only is it possible, but the research has been done.

[1011] Like it actually exists, and he was talking about it.

[1012] And they were saying, anti -Semitic.

[1013] Yeah.

[1014] Like that.

[1015] What?

[1016] Come on.

[1017] Come on, come on, guys.

[1018] This is a cookie.

[1019] But I saw so many wacko lefties.

[1020] Like, this is one wacko lefty actor that I fall.

[1021] And he's always got this hot take on, like, whatever it is, whether it's Ukraine or this or that.

[1022] So he's just wacko, lefty, uninformed hot take.

[1023] And I always go to him for that.

[1024] And he had one of calling him an anti -Semite and this and that.

[1025] Like, dude, first of all, you get sued because you don't even know what he said.

[1026] You're so off and also hilarious.

[1027] Right.

[1028] Hilarious watching you virtue signal and wave your goofy flag of ignorance.

[1029] Yeah.

[1030] That's the one thing that really I kind of like Trump for is.

[1031] that he really opened my eyes to how extreme and gross both sides are.

[1032] You know, like, I mean, I just see, like, friends that I used to be friends with, just the things they say is so far left, like, I just cringe at.

[1033] And then the other side, the same thing, you know.

[1034] Yeah.

[1035] Well, that's always been the problem with two groups, right?

[1036] Because the spectrum of human beings is so wide to lump us into one side or the other side is, it's kooky.

[1037] It's like most people are kind of a mess, like a mix.

[1038] rather of both sides most people are pretty centrist I feel like I'm left center left to center center center left same here but I get called alt right because does it like if you think like hey maybe you shouldn't be injecting little kids with hormones and puberty blockers and what about all the side effects that you guys are conveniently ignoring that are permanent and terrifying and all the different things that it does their system it's a fucking host of horrific side effects that are connected with those things and then all of a sudden you're transphobe right okay and then they start using terms like gender affirming care like okay you mean surgery to remove testicles and penises and remove breasts for children you do don't say it that way like say what it is don't come up with some cute rosy term term that makes it seem better than it is makes it seem like something different than it is you know it's it's a it's a weird thing that people are agreeing to And I'm sure you've seen that video where this guy interviews people to see.

[1039] Do you think 12 -year -olds are you able to get tattoos?

[1040] And they're all like, no. No, no, they're too young.

[1041] Do you think 12 -year -olds can choose their gender?

[1042] Yes, they know.

[1043] We definitely know.

[1044] Bro, we used to just all agree that kids were easily influenced and they changed their mind all the time and they want to be a pirate.

[1045] You don't even know what a pirate is, Billy, you're five.

[1046] You know, like, we used to always agree to that.

[1047] and then it became about gender and we're like, no way.

[1048] No, they know.

[1049] But look, some people, I think, do know.

[1050] That's part of the problem.

[1051] Like, when you look at the broad spectrum of human beings, there's some people that in early age feel like they're in the wrong body.

[1052] How do you know if that is, if they're being influenced?

[1053] How do you know if this is a phase?

[1054] How do you know if they're not just going to decide that they're gay in the future, which happens to a lot of them?

[1055] A lot of them.

[1056] they just decided that they're gay men and they just were confused and they didn't fit into this normal mold of heterosexual males and they didn't have anyone around them that was just a gay man and they're like I guess I'm a woman you know you know and then someone convinces you're amazing for coming out as a woman and then you're on the path you're committed it's like if you're a guy who's like I'm all Android bro I don't fuck around with iPhones once you say that you're kind of you're stuck forever yeah I fuck with Brian Simpson all All the time.

[1057] All the time.

[1058] I think of every single time.

[1059] Because he won't give it up.

[1060] Neither would Gordon Ryan.

[1061] He's all Android.

[1062] I don't get it.

[1063] Well, with Gordon, I think, like, he got pissed that people could, like, read his text messages on an iPad.

[1064] You know, like, someone could, like, log into your account on an iPad and read your text messages.

[1065] Like, that's fucking stupid.

[1066] And so I think that was with him.

[1067] And so he's like, fuck Apple.

[1068] Like, fuck you for doing that.

[1069] but with um brian it's like he's committed to this idea that he's like a rebel he's using this rebel platform so he can't he can't go you know what fuck android on my phone now like you're committed he almost was teetering recently though i've been talking to him he almost was teetering but what i'm saying is if you're a young person you're even more connected to what you think your identity is and something as simple as i'm a mac guy or i'm a windows guy like people get committed to very simple things like I'm all fucking Kansas City Royals till I die they get committed to that and then they use that as part of their identity well that's just something silly like a game or a phone or computer platform now imagine that same tendency that people have to be committed to whatever they've announced and now connected to your ideology or your gender like they don't want to give up, like whether it's being a liberal or I really was born a girl or I was really born a boy or should have been a girl or should have been a boy or whether it's I'm, you know, whatever the fuck it is.

[1070] When people decide that they're a thing, then they just look for reinforcement of whether that is and they talk about it all the time and that's their thing.

[1071] That's all they're committed to it.

[1072] For us to ignore that aspect of just normal human behavior, that this is just a standard thing that people do.

[1073] It's just stupid.

[1074] It's stupid.

[1075] And the more the stakes are at hand, the more people are going to do that.

[1076] Whether it's in support of Palestine or in support of Israel or in support of Ukraine or in support of Iraq, whatever the fuck it is.

[1077] When the stakes are very high, we're more likely to never look at things objectively.

[1078] More likely to, like, stay in that fucking place where you decide you are.

[1079] Trump's a Nazi That's that kind of shit You know what I mean You know?

[1080] People that are like Their Biden's amazing This administration Has done so much work Like what are you talking about No one believes that You don't believe that I know you don't believe that Now I can't listen to you anymore Because now I know you're You're either a con person You're a shill Or you're crazy You should be like Wow I wish we did better Yeah wish you did better Right be nice if things Weren't falling apart Be nice if the border wasn't porous and we're legitimately concerned about terror cells existing in major cities.

[1081] That's what people are talking about all over Twitter or X today.

[1082] Terror cells, the possibility of terror cells.

[1083] Oh, Jesus.

[1084] Why don't you look into Jesus?

[1085] Do you think in the future maybe instead of having a president, we'll have some kind of AI and it's only, it's like every single one of us can add to the AI, like what we feel and what we think and our thoughts and it will combine.

[1086] and using everybody that lives in the US to come up with a final statement, almost like a...

[1087] 100%.

[1088] I was talking to Sam Altman about that.

[1089] Oh, really?

[1090] Yeah.

[1091] Oh, cool.

[1092] I was like President AI.

[1093] I think that's...

[1094] Yes.

[1095] I've been talking about this a lot.

[1096] Really?

[1097] Yeah, because that's the only way you would ever get government that is far more intelligent than you and that doesn't have bias and isn't controlled by any group.

[1098] Like, if you could legitimately give it power and make it sentient.

[1099] But then you would have to give into what it says.

[1100] So what if it said, here's what's important.

[1101] You guys have to stay still.

[1102] The more you travel around, the more you fuck up the environment.

[1103] I know you want to see the Grand Canyon, but fuck you.

[1104] Well, then checks and balances on that.

[1105] Yeah, it's a good point.

[1106] Because, yeah, I mean, is there a VP AI too?

[1107] If first one we don't like it, they get three strikes, and now we're a backup program, we're on 2 .0.

[1108] Yeah.

[1109] And what if the AI does like a Putin and just says, no, I think I'm taking over forever?

[1110] Is it provably not hackable also?

[1111] So right.

[1112] Right.

[1113] Well, we would have to get it to a point where it's so powerful it wouldn't you couldn't hack it or it would know you're hacking.

[1114] Yeah, you got to make it a sentient, make it a completely fully aware, autonomous.

[1115] What are you doing?

[1116] What if some bad actor convinced a few people or a lot of people to give up their voting rights into the AI and now one person's controlling, you know, 25 ,000 votes at once?

[1117] Yeah, you would have to make sure that can't happen.

[1118] But how do you, like, that's, scanning your eyes.

[1119] Well, this is like, how do you, when you give in to this authority, even if it's an electronic authority for the greater good of the world, that's essentially how you get North Korea.

[1120] That's what North Korea did.

[1121] When Yonemi Park was on the podcast and she's explaining what they did, what they did was they told all these people, hey, if we just control the land, we'll make sure that everyone has food.

[1122] And they're like, okay, so they just took everyone's land.

[1123] And they're like, yeah, now you're going to starve.

[1124] Now we're going to tell you what to do.

[1125] Now you have three haircuts you can choose from.

[1126] you know now if you try to make it across the border we shoot you yeah you live in an open air prison controlled by a dictator and then you have prisons inside of that open air prisons that are horrible concentration camps for anybody that violates any of the rules and generations of people live there like your your children will be there your grandchildren will be there because you've done something that bad that it's like three generations of people will live in prisons because of you you ever see like the guys who've escaped from prisons in North Korea describe what it's like in there people literally starving to death mm -hmm it's going on right now but president AI can fix that Brian mm -hmm president AI open up the door how that exactly that's so it's so many sci -fi movies it's ridiculous it's if I was a an artificial intelligence and wanted to trick people into giving me total power.

[1127] I would just have a complete total chaos, and that would be the only solution.

[1128] I would engineer chaos.

[1129] I would engineer all of it.

[1130] I would maybe half of these bots are controlled by AI, and they're just constantly attacking things, constantly like stirring up the pot and getting people angry and excited, and then convincing people that ridiculous ideas, like open borders or giving $6 billion to Iran, or, you know, any of these things, these are good ideas.

[1131] And then in the process of that, just further creating chaos, and then I announce, there is a solution.

[1132] That solution is we have to have government that is not human.

[1133] Human government is filled with ego and lust and greed and corruption.

[1134] My programming makes corruption impossible.

[1135] Plus, I have no motive.

[1136] except Jesus.

[1137] Imagine if that song plays, the moment it becomes sentient.

[1138] Yeah, what if AI starts getting programmed to be religious, too?

[1139] Like, has that even, that hasn't happened, right?

[1140] Well, what if AI know something?

[1141] What if AI can do the math?

[1142] And what if AI goes, yeah, somebody made this.

[1143] Yeah, exactly.

[1144] This is fucking 100 % made by something, by something.

[1145] I was trying to think which company wins the AI president battle?

[1146] Or is it the government made it?

[1147] I mean, like, Apple.

[1148] Well, then, yeah.

[1149] Apple has more money than God.

[1150] They just become God.

[1151] They make the AI.

[1152] They're probably doing it right now.

[1153] They've got a fucking building like a spaceship.

[1154] Yeah.

[1155] A giant spaceship building.

[1156] I bet there's like an underground bunker.

[1157] Oh, for sure.

[1158] They got some AI.

[1159] It works on quantum computing.

[1160] They're ready to launch that bitch.

[1161] Siri, too.

[1162] Yeah.

[1163] It's a good company.

[1164] I mean, if everyone's going to run the world.

[1165] I think Apple will probably be the nicest.

[1166] Yeah.

[1167] About it.

[1168] You know that pendant I showed you last week that there's not like three of them that do it, supposedly.

[1169] It's like you can wear this wearable, it records your audio all day long.

[1170] Yeah.

[1171] I was thinking about it was like, is that not what our phones have been doing, or we at least think that's what our phones have been doing for the last few years?

[1172] And now it's just a purchasable tech.

[1173] Yeah, 100 % your phone's been listening to you, especially if you're you or me. Yeah, someone's listening.

[1174] Like that Pegasus software that we were talking about that was developed by Israel.

[1175] I mean, that's one of the crazy things that people are like, how did they not know that this was coming?

[1176] like they're so good that is weird inside job the the dark one would be no I don't even want to say it it's just is it just total failure or were they so clever or were they so well funded they could pull it off or you know the unthinkable all of it's horrible man that fucking rave that is so terrifying paratro Droper's dropping in on a rave and killing everybody?

[1177] They announced today, like, what, 12 Americans died?

[1178] Not funny that we keep count of those folks?

[1179] Yeah.

[1180] We think, oh, they're more important.

[1181] Yeah, well, we lost 260 Israelis at the concert, but 12 more Americans.

[1182] Right, 12 them were Americans.

[1183] God damn.

[1184] Hope we didn't lose anybody famous.

[1185] Hope we didn't lose any TikTokers.

[1186] You know?

[1187] Isn't that weird, though, that we think about that?

[1188] Like, how many Americans got killed?

[1189] That's a...

[1190] It's a strange metric.

[1191] This is a strange thing to concentrate on.

[1192] Just the overall horrific nature of just all the deaths, including Palestine.

[1193] I mean, how many people have died since they started bombing?

[1194] Have you seen the bombs?

[1195] Mm -hmm.

[1196] Just shooting missiles into buildings and stuff?

[1197] That one building that collapsed the first night?

[1198] Fuck, dude.

[1199] That place was already fucked.

[1200] Yeah.

[1201] What's it like now?

[1202] They're shutting the power off there?

[1203] No. Like, but here's the thing about the Israeli.

[1204] Palestine conflict, like, how do you sort that out?

[1205] One group says the other group shouldn't exist, and they're on their land.

[1206] The other group says, you have to stay over here, and you can't go anywhere, and...

[1207] A world vote.

[1208] You don't want that.

[1209] You don't want that.

[1210] I wonder what that vote would be.

[1211] That's why we would have to hear it out.

[1212] Like, we would all have to watch it on TV and stuff like that.

[1213] And what are they basing it on, too?

[1214] The thing about the AI would wonder, like, are you voting on?

[1215] on based on false assumptions?

[1216] Right.

[1217] Are you voting based on propaganda?

[1218] You've been fed by a dictator?

[1219] Like, if we let the whole world vote, can North Korea really vote?

[1220] No, we don't, they're not part of us.

[1221] Well, maybe if AI takes over, maybe if AI takes over, they could vote that out.

[1222] Imagine if AI just completely stopped North Korea's ability to use any of their weapon systems and then mobilized drones to disarm all the soldiers and said, okay, we're going to set everybody free.

[1223] that was AI's first task, free North Korea.

[1224] We would have to go, AI's doing a really good job.

[1225] I was watching Isaac Asimov, and he was on the David Letterman show.

[1226] Don't ask me why, I just was YouTube.

[1227] And he was on the David Letterman show in 1980.

[1228] And he said, I imagine in 40 years there will be no war.

[1229] Yeah, he had this idea of like, there'll be no war, and he was like this idea of, like, what the future would be like.

[1230] It was very interesting.

[1231] But that people have always had this idea that one day, We're going to sort this whole war thing out.

[1232] In 1980, you could kind of think like that.

[1233] Because the Vietnam War had ended.

[1234] We hadn't done anything until Operation Desert Storm.

[1235] And that was, what was that, 92?

[1236] Yeah.

[1237] 91, 92, something like that.

[1238] Back then, people had this dream in 1980.

[1239] Like, yeah, we could envision a, we're not having war in America anymore.

[1240] It could be a time with no war.

[1241] We were really stupid, though.

[1242] I remember when Back to the Future, two was supposed to happen like three years ago, you know, when there was flying cars everywhere and hologram.

[1243] I know.

[1244] We always get that shit wrong.

[1245] Yeah.

[1246] But when a guy like Isaac Asimov gets it so.

[1247] But it's not that he gets it so wrong.

[1248] He just had hope in humans and thinking that we're going to really, at this point in time, with television and everything.

[1249] Back then, television was crazy.

[1250] Like, oh, my God, we have television and the news.

[1251] How can you keep having a war?

[1252] I thought the world will understand that that's a bad thing and here we are 2023 on the verge of some crazy conflict like World War 3 type conflict like real like the beginning of World War II and you think about the first operations the first things that happened you just go whoa what must that have been like what must that have been like to see that there's a world war going on and you're just sitting here going Holy shit Holy shit It's popping off Is this Palestine?

[1253] I mean the tweet said it was from Bloomberg Oh my God Is this today?

[1254] Oh yeah that's the Their place is it called Mosque?

[1255] No they're a big prayer place That's their mosque?

[1256] Yeah That ball right there?

[1257] Jesus dude holy shit man yeah this was the second day look at that look at this devastation man what is that they bombed jamie I'm not 100 % sure I'll try to find out it just says it's drone photo drover at Gaza City it's terrifying man imagine living there and knowing at any minute it could start again how do they choose what to bomb too are they bombing where they think they're terrifying came from are they bombing where they were they sleep what are they doing supposed to be what government buildings only you know is that what that was that didn't you know that's that just seems like they went ham yeah they went crazy that term surgical strikes that one always gets me surgical missile attacks surgical what kind of surgery like you using bombs for surgery yeah that's that's like the most gas lighting term ever for a missile.

[1258] Surgical missile strikes.

[1259] Oh, you're doing surgery?

[1260] Kind of, you are.

[1261] You're definitely removing people from this world.

[1262] Separating body parts.

[1263] I don't think I'd call it surgery, though.

[1264] You shouldn't be able to use that term.

[1265] Surgical strike.

[1266] You know, that seems like you shouldn't even be able to use that for darts.

[1267] He's got surgical precision.

[1268] Are you going to let a guy do surgery with a dart?

[1269] No, you're not.

[1270] Shut the fuck up.

[1271] Don't say surgery.

[1272] Surgery's like a guy's got fucking giant goggles over his eyes and he's very precise with his cuts and his vision is magnified and there's people around him cleaning things and handing him things.

[1273] That's surgery.

[1274] Yeah, no mistakes.

[1275] Yeah.

[1276] Not drone footage.

[1277] Surgical drone strikes.

[1278] That's another thing that we ignore.

[1279] The amount of people that accidentally get killed in drones far exceeds the amount of people that they're supposed to kill.

[1280] It's some insane number I think it's What we've looked it up before I want to say like 80 % Like 80 % of the people that get killed Are innocent Wow From drone strikes Yeah See what is the actual number I think it's something like that though right What do you find it I mean it's just the first thing I'm looking at Does this doesn't sound right It's like to look a different way I mean obviously also I'm looking like for deaths of civilians I guess would be or percentage?

[1281] What would you say that?

[1282] Civilian casualties?

[1283] What is an accidental casualty?

[1284] What do they call that?

[1285] Don't they have a term for civilians?

[1286] Yeah, that.

[1287] Collateral damage, that's right.

[1288] I mean, that could be anything.

[1289] Because that was the Julian Assange video, collateral murder.

[1290] That was the thing that.

[1291] How about that?

[1292] Nobody talks about that guy.

[1293] Yeah.

[1294] Exposes the chaos of war.

[1295] Yeah, we want to lock you up forever.

[1296] Yeah, I'm just, I don't, it's not, I'm not looking in the right spot.

[1297] I can tell you that much.

[1298] Do you ever use AI for your searches now?

[1299] ChatGBT?

[1300] I'll ask chat GPT and see if I get it for you.

[1301] Yeah.

[1302] I bet chat GPT will set us straight right away.

[1303] What percentage of drone strikes deaths are civilians, or collateral damage?

[1304] Seven.

[1305] What do you say?

[1306] Guess.

[1307] What do you think it is?

[1308] I would say 40%.

[1309] I want to say 84.

[1310] But you've probably already looked it up.

[1311] I definitely have in the past, but I don't remember what the number is.

[1312] But I remember it being shockingly high.

[1313] Let's see what chat cheap says.

[1314] It didn't give me an answer.

[1315] Was it said?

[1316] Oh, it was just a long thing talking about why it can't give me an exact percentage.

[1317] That's too long to read.

[1318] Just summarize and give me what you think.

[1319] Yeah, I'm not saying.

[1320] Collateral damage typically refers to unintended civilian casualties or damage.

[1321] to civilian property during military operations, including drone strikes.

[1322] The percentage of collateral damage in drone strikes can be influenced by several factors, including the accuracy of the intelligence used to target individuals or groups, the precision of the drone technology, the rules of engagement employed by the military, and the level of care taking to minimize civilian harm.

[1323] Also, people will overestimate on purpose the amount of civilians that were killed because it's a very bad PR.

[1324] Someone in the military explained that to me. Oh, yeah.

[1325] That's what the next paragraph just said, like, different organizations will have, like, different answers based on...

[1326] Yeah, different organizations and sources may provide varying estimates of collateral damage in drone strikes.

[1327] Some reports suggest that improvements in drone technology and tactics have reduced the number of civilian casualties over time, while others argue that the true extent of civilian harm may be underreported or not fully understood.

[1328] That was my problem I was having while I was trying to find real quick.

[1329] I've seen different numbers that didn't add up.

[1330] I probably read somebody's random substack.

[1331] It's giving me a high...

[1332] That's a great answer, Chad GPT.

[1333] Yeah, very diplomatic.

[1334] Yeah.

[1335] Doing a good job.

[1336] It's getting better answering questions.

[1337] It's going to be freaky when it gets to five.

[1338] Remember it all started back in the day with Siri?

[1339] Like, we're going to hide a dead body?

[1340] By the shore.

[1341] What kind of dead body, Brian?

[1342] Yeah.

[1343] That's what's crazy about when someone gets caught, like, murdering their husband.

[1344] There's, like, a bunch of searches on their computer.

[1345] How do I get rid of the body?

[1346] Yeah, it's so dumb, too.

[1347] Who would do that?

[1348] The kind of people that would murder their wife or murder their husband.

[1349] I guess.

[1350] Like, those people are, they're probably on drugs, and they're probably not technologically savvy.

[1351] They don't listen to podcasts.

[1352] Like, if you don't listen to podcasts and you don't read and you're not online and you're not involved, you probably don't even know that they have access to your shit.

[1353] Right.

[1354] You probably believe that, like, what is that mode that you can do on Google?

[1355] Safe mode or Hidden mode or...

[1356] Hidden mode.

[1357] Yes, like, safe, or it's secret mode or...

[1358] What is it called?

[1359] Safe search.

[1360] Yeah.

[1361] Get the fucking out of it, bitch.

[1362] That ain't safe.

[1363] Incognito.

[1364] Right.

[1365] Yeah.

[1366] Bitch, you ain't incognito.

[1367] You're online.

[1368] Put a wig on and go to Walmart and use their computers.

[1369] Yeah.

[1370] Unless you're using a VPN.

[1371] Even that.

[1372] VPS.

[1373] They'll still get into your hard drive, son.

[1374] Speaking of wig on, how's that baseball game job?

[1375] Do you see that meme?

[1376] Somebody sent me this meme.

[1377] Joe Rogan ain't slick.

[1378] It looked exactly like me with a wig on.

[1379] Oh, yeah.

[1380] Isn't that Photoshop?

[1381] I thought that was just Photoshop with your face on.

[1382] No. That's on my face.

[1383] That's some dude.

[1384] Yeah, somebody just tweeted that to me the other day.

[1385] That's hilarious.

[1386] If I was an alcoholic and I ate a lot of hot dogs and I'd look at that too.

[1387] Oh, my God.

[1388] Yeah, that's like your piss look too.

[1389] Bro, that looks so much like me. Like, if I just got a little nose job and moved to Argentina.

[1390] That's weird, dude.

[1391] It's crazy.

[1392] That looks like such a horrible wig, too.

[1393] So I want to see what he looks like without a wig.

[1394] That guy's hiding.

[1395] Who's this guy?

[1396] That guy's hiding.

[1397] Oh, yeah, because he's with that girl.

[1398] You know, maybe he's bald.

[1399] He's got tired of people thinking he's me. He's like, I know how to throw people off.

[1400] God, I thought that was you.

[1401] Bro, I thought it was me. It's so funny.

[1402] Somebody photoshop me in there.

[1403] But then I'm like, oh, that's not me. That's on my nose.

[1404] That's on my face.

[1405] And I always thought that poster in the mothership green room was you.

[1406] The Hunter Thompson one.

[1407] I always thought that was it.

[1408] Like, since I've known.

[1409] you.

[1410] Like, I've just thought, oh, man, that's a cool, like, cool photo that you got.

[1411] Nope.

[1412] Nope.

[1413] Not me. Cool photo, though.

[1414] It's one of my favorites.

[1415] He's pointing that gun in the cockpit of some fucking.

[1416] He's got the, I think that's why I think it's, I thought it was from that, uh, talking monkeys in space.

[1417] Oh, right, right.

[1418] Fighter, the old pilot helmet thing on the, the cap.

[1419] Yeah.

[1420] Those caps are cool.

[1421] They used to look cool when they're flying jets Now they're out there with fucking space helmets on Do you know now when they get in Certain helicopters and certain fighter jets Their head piece that they put on Their helmet is not just a helmet It's also like an AR screen It's MR, yeah And so it sinks up with the jet And where they look is where the crosshairs go So when they're shooting They literally put the crosshairs on with their head but their eyes, like where they're seeing, which is wild.

[1422] That's cool.

[1423] That is incredible.

[1424] You imagine if that kind of technology comes to video games, and you're just shooting things that you see.

[1425] Right.

[1426] So you're running around.

[1427] They kind of have that, yeah.

[1428] But that would be way more accurate.

[1429] Yeah.

[1430] So this is it?

[1431] Yeah, that's cool.

[1432] So look at that.

[1433] So this is like, it's tracking where he's looking.

[1434] What's it called the B .A .E. System Striker 2 helmet mounted display.

[1435] of course they have stuff like this though it makes sense I mean you have this giant screen in front of a person's face and you have all this augmented reality is that what it looks like the top of the ground I don't know I mean I'm not been in it yes it is I don't want to say no and if you're doing that at nighttime and that's what you see yeah that's infrared imagine if you're doing that and also you see a saucer hovering there yeah that's that's cool stuff eye tracking is cool like VR headsets have that now and it's really neat because you can just look at what you want to click and then you just have your hand and you just click it so you go like click click click oh wow you know it's cool you just look for because you're wearing a VR guard yeah so it knows exactly where your eyes are and that's just going to get better and better and better oh yeah the new one at quest three comes out tomorrow and that that's a million times better than it was before and that's the one that Zuckerberg and Lex did a podcast from no no they actually used the older one the Quest Pro because that has eye tracking.

[1436] The one they're releasing tomorrow is like their $500 one and it doesn't have eye tracking but it's more powerful than that one which makes zero sense.

[1437] I don't know what they're doing over there but no, the Quest Pro has eye tracking that's what they use.

[1438] Maybe they'll release a next level pro next.

[1439] Well, the Pro did so bad that I think they kind of killed it.

[1440] Oh, really?

[1441] Yeah, yeah.

[1442] I mean, I had it.

[1443] It broke like in a month.

[1444] It's still broken.

[1445] But it's not as I mean, the Quest 2 or Quest 3, it's more for more people, I think.

[1446] I mean, that whole meta thing was like, the commercial was so exciting.

[1447] You know, I was like, look at all these diverse people dancing to a painting.

[1448] Right.

[1449] That's like, singing to them.

[1450] What a cool commercial.

[1451] Yeah.

[1452] You know, it was like, it wasn't, it was fun, like a fun commercial.

[1453] Like, you're like, ooh, what do you guys?

[1454] But nobody bought into it.

[1455] Everybody's like, great commercial.

[1456] What's the product?

[1457] Yeah.

[1458] You know?

[1459] That's what's going to be interesting with Apple.

[1460] Because, I mean, there's this, what, $3 ,500?

[1461] And so if the Quest Pro didn't work, I mean, this is going to be a, if this works for Apple, then that's insane.

[1462] Because it's - Well, that company's a different company.

[1463] Yeah, and it's a totally different product.

[1464] It's so much higher.

[1465] If they sell something, though, they're so sure that people are going to buy it.

[1466] Like, what duds have they ever had?

[1467] They've had a couple of duds back in the day.

[1468] Remember the tablet that you write on?

[1469] It was like a, like a, like a, old school.

[1470] Yeah.

[1471] Yeah, what are those things called?

[1472] Newton or something like?

[1473] Not a, yeah, Newton.

[1474] What are those things referred to as?

[1475] It's not a bookkeeper, but it's like a no -heed -eat.

[1476] Yeah, whatever the fuck it was.

[1477] I remember I had this meeting with this Hollywood guy.

[1478] This is 1994 when I just moved to L .A. And he was showing me this thing he got.

[1479] Wow.

[1480] Look, I got this thing.

[1481] And he's like, showing me all the buttons.

[1482] I was like, okay, what are you going to do with that?

[1483] And he's like, oh, I've got my organized on this.

[1484] I've got all my appointments coming up.

[1485] Look, we're all in this little thing.

[1486] You're right on it with like a little piece, a little, here it is, the Apple Newton.

[1487] And that's even a newer one, I think.

[1488] I think there was even an older looking one than that.

[1489] It launched in 93, discontinued in 98.

[1490] They're like, yeah, all right.

[1491] It is funny because it does have some really cool.

[1492] Apple portable.

[1493] Yeah, but now you're in the 80s.

[1494] No one's buying computers yet.

[1495] But when you get in the 90s, like Macintosh TV, that's interesting.

[1496] I didn't ever heard that one.

[1497] 94, launched in 93, discontinued in 94.

[1498] Oh, yeah.

[1499] Price that launched 1399 in 94.

[1500] What is that today?

[1501] That's like...

[1502] 4 ,000.

[1503] At least, right?

[1504] Yeah.

[1505] And then that one, what is that?

[1506] The 20th Ann or Ann anniversary.

[1507] 7500.

[1508] What is it?

[1509] What the fuck?

[1510] They made only a couple of these, I think.

[1511] I think...

[1512] Oh, yeah, the video game system.

[1513] They were supposed to team up with, what was it, Nintendo or somebody?

[1514] What's this Performa X2?

[1515] Oh, so this is just different computers that they're making.

[1516] I remember that e -mate thing.

[1517] Yeah.

[1518] That was weird.

[1519] Okay, and then the round mouse.

[1520] Remember they had a one button.

[1521] We don't need one button.

[1522] They had their own firewire that caught a lot of problems for them to.

[1523] I hated that firewire.

[1524] The cube.

[1525] I like the cube.

[1526] I thought that was sexy.

[1527] I like the fucking iPods.

[1528] I used to love iPods.

[1529] I still have my product.

[1530] That was a solid product.

[1531] The little wheel, the clicking on it, a solid product.

[1532] It is just a timeline, though.

[1533] Scroll down a little bit further.

[1534] It wasn't much else.

[1535] I would disagree with a lot of these, I think.

[1536] Or these are things that are supposed to be failed.

[1537] That wasn't good.

[1538] That was that iTunes, like, social media thing they tried to do, built -in out there.

[1539] That was weird.

[1540] Totally forgot about that.

[1541] Oh, yeah.

[1542] Oh, yeah.

[1543] Do you remember that?

[1544] Yeah, nobody got that thing.

[1545] One got that.

[1546] Myspace took care of that or something.

[1547] That was it.

[1548] Yeah, that was, it's whenever someone, like, threads, right?

[1549] Someone tries to launch a new one, and everybody's like, yeah, let's go over there.

[1550] And then they go, we'll go back to X. Yeah.

[1551] They're forcing threads in the middle of Instagram.

[1552] game post now.

[1553] Like you'll be scrolling through your feed and it's just like check out these threads.

[1554] It's like no. Really?

[1555] Get them the fuck out of here.

[1556] Interesting.

[1557] They do that.

[1558] It does feel kind of clean and nice, not having any bots.

[1559] You know, that's the thing I hate.

[1560] The threads have no box?

[1561] No, it doesn't.

[1562] Like, I have no problems with any of that because it's so much harder to get an Instagram account, you know, what I mean?

[1563] Like Twitter, you could have like a million of them.

[1564] Yeah, but dude, whenever I make a post, like almost instantly, it's like I'm horny looking for a boyfriend.

[1565] Again, most of that is because it's probably not yet, which technically is sort of, but only a few people have it on PC.

[1566] Once they opened up Instagram to PC users and you can make posts and make comments and all that, you can make computer programs to do all of that shit.

[1567] Well, they have threads on browser now.

[1568] I'm just like, yeah, only some people have it.

[1569] Maybe I'm sure you probably do whatever.

[1570] But also, like to stop the bots and to stop all the bullshit, you have to do a lot of monitoring, right?

[1571] So you have to do a lot of moderation.

[1572] So you have to step in and censor.

[1573] Once you start doing that, like Elon tries to keep that at the bare minimum.

[1574] And that's like costing him in advertising revenue.

[1575] But it's good for us.

[1576] It's also good for them in some way because it shows traffic.

[1577] Yeah.

[1578] And they don't want to, like, admit how much of its actual traffic.

[1579] That was why he bought it in the first place.

[1580] Because he thought that they were overestimating how much traffic there was and whatnot.

[1581] Yeah.

[1582] And they are, they still are.

[1583] I mean, like, he's been.

[1584] How many real people?

[1585] He's been streaming video games the other day on X, and, you know, like somebody, like, M .K., had, like, I forget, something like 32 million views for this one video.

[1586] Oh, my God.

[1587] And it's just, like, they count a view.

[1588] It's, like, if you're just scrolling and it plays, or if it's, you know, and they count that as a play, you know?

[1589] That's true.

[1590] That's silly.

[1591] Right.

[1592] Well, they would know.

[1593] They would know what the metrics are.

[1594] Like, Spotify knows how many people tune into my podcast for, like, 30 seconds.

[1595] and how many people watch the whole thing.

[1596] I wish the Spotify have, they don't, like an Apple app for, like Apple TV and stuff like that.

[1597] Like a, oh, so it goes on Apple TV?

[1598] That's because it's because of Apple music, I'm guessing.

[1599] Yeah.

[1600] That's, that sucks.

[1601] That would be a good move because YouTube's version of that is amazing.

[1602] Yeah.

[1603] You know, professional pool, which, you know, I'm a fucking dork.

[1604] Yeah.

[1605] I love watching pool matches.

[1606] It's never been a better time to watch pool.

[1607] I watched so many big matches, like one I was watching from Vietnam yesterday, the Perry Open.

[1608] And I'm watching these, like, world -class players play in Vietnam.

[1609] So I'm watching it live.

[1610] It's like 2 a .m. in the morning.

[1611] I'm cuddling up with my dog on the couch, watching on the big screen these, like, professional pool matches.

[1612] And I'm like, this is incredible.

[1613] Like, I used to have to buy VHS tapes.

[1614] I used to buy them from a company called Accustats.

[1615] this is the thing about pool when you watch other people play pool you learn how to play pool you learn like the right path to go like because it's you know it's all the ball scatter and you have nine of them if you're playing nine ball and you have to figure out what's the best way to get around what are the problems and so when you see pros do it you're like oh i never had thought the shot shoot it that of course that's the way to do it oh you have to go two rails i was being a chicken i was trying to go one rail and then you you watch that and you get better.

[1616] So it's always been a thing in the pool world to watch matches, like everybody watches matches.

[1617] But you can never just get them on your TV.

[1618] They're so hard.

[1619] It would be on ESPN every now and again.

[1620] There's all these commercials and all this nonsense.

[1621] But to be able to watch it on YouTube, it's fucking amazing.

[1622] I have a billion channel on my YouTube TV.

[1623] I don't know if it's like a shit like chat like ESPN or whatever.

[1624] Yeah.

[1625] On YouTube.

[1626] Yeah.

[1627] Yeah, but no, like YouTube TV, like the service.

[1628] The cable TV.

[1629] Not the actual YouTube, like YouTube .com.

[1630] Yeah.

[1631] I just switched over to YouTube TV.

[1632] What is that?

[1633] It's just cable through YouTube.

[1634] Yeah.

[1635] It's so good.

[1636] Yeah, it's so integrated now into the middle of the thing that you can watch the movies.

[1637] You can go back and forth between both apps.

[1638] Can you get like ESPN?

[1639] Oh, 100 % thing.

[1640] It costs like 80 bucks a month or whatever.

[1641] I mean, it might be more 85 now or less.

[1642] You just pick what shows you want and they always record them.

[1643] So like I always have like the news recorded and like, you know, certain shows.

[1644] It's always.

[1645] I'm a bit of DVR for all of channels.

[1646] How am I just finding out about this?

[1647] It's on all your apps and all your own.

[1648] 14 and a half million subscribers on YouTube.

[1649] I'm just fine out of this.

[1650] It's a slightly different service, but it's still the same thing.

[1651] Yeah, it's good.

[1652] That's awesome.

[1653] Yeah, that's the new world.

[1654] But again, there's a lot of censorship with that, too.

[1655] A lot of demonetization.

[1656] But again, they're operating on an advertising revenue model, which, you know, advertisers complain.

[1657] Advertisers don't want controversial subjects attached to whatever the fuck they're selling.

[1658] I wonder, though, because, like, you know, Kill Tony is doing really good.

[1659] And, you know, we have almost every advertiser you could possibly want.

[1660] You know, we love our advertisers.

[1661] But on YouTube, we're getting age -gated now.

[1662] We're getting demonetized, like, almost every episode now.

[1663] And it's mostly because of language.

[1664] And it's like, but those sponsors that you think are saying, no, we can't have bad poo -poo language.

[1665] You know, they're sponsoring us.

[1666] Like, it can't be that.

[1667] It's okay.

[1668] It's okay.

[1669] The hypocrisy is okay.

[1670] The contradictions are okay.

[1671] It's just they got to sort this out.

[1672] And they've got to realize that there's a real market for regular people that are like wild shit.

[1673] And those people buy stuff too.

[1674] And you can't let this very small vocal minority that complain about things and write letters and start campaigns.

[1675] You can't let them dictate.

[1676] You have to let the society dictate.

[1677] If it's not good, people won't watch it.

[1678] If it's good, people are watching it.

[1679] If people are watching it, you can advertise on it.

[1680] Right.

[1681] You're going to get those people, the people that enjoy that product.

[1682] And just stop being the moral compass for the fucking world.

[1683] Right.

[1684] Don't do that because people, it is the internet now.

[1685] People can decide.

[1686] They can decide what they want, decide what they don't want, you know.

[1687] And you see that.

[1688] You see that companies starting to wake up and go, I think this is just like people like this stuff, like normal people.

[1689] You know, like violent movies.

[1690] You know, you don't sponsor once upon a time in Hollywood.

[1691] But if you did, like who wants to get in on that sponsorship?

[1692] People getting murdered and dicks are getting bitten by pit bulls.

[1693] It's like fucking crazy movie, right?

[1694] That would be demonetized.

[1695] you'd be like that's too much that's too crazy but meanwhile everybody watches it it's like the same people that buy your stuff yeah like they got to just relax with that and stop you're selling things okay you're selling toothpaste you're not the moral compass of the world and if people complain about it fuck them right don't give in to the mob because if you do you become bud light yeah yeah kill the name kill tony they told me i can't put it in thumbnails or the titles anymore so i have to Now edit, like, a photo over the word kill.

[1696] Every episode has to have, like, that, that was a problem because the show could name.

[1697] But meanwhile, Kill Bill.

[1698] Yeah, Kill Bill available on YouTube?

[1699] Exactly.

[1700] It seems like I bet it is.

[1701] 100%.

[1702] I bet you can buy Kill Bill.

[1703] Yep.

[1704] Can't you?

[1705] It's technically different, though.

[1706] They're not going to be serving ads in the middle of Kill Bill.

[1707] It's really them serving.

[1708] It's the computer program they're using.

[1709] It serves whatever they think the algorithm wants to, you know, to feed you.

[1710] Right.

[1711] Well, it serves the best.

[1712] interest of advertising revenue that's what it is they're worried about advertisers not want to be associated with something that's crazy you know it's their prerogative but I think it's a mistake I think when things are popular and things are good you should advertise on them you know it's like come on what are you doing right we don't I think it'll sort itself out yeah I mean kill Tony's just too big now yeah it's I mean you guys sold out a fucking arena for New Year's and it started a second show yeah So there's a second arena on for sale.

[1713] How stupid is that?

[1714] It's amazing.

[1715] It's amazing.

[1716] It's going to be 15 ,000 people watching a live podcast in Austin.

[1717] It's insane.

[1718] Yeah.

[1719] It's amazing.

[1720] And then Tony's like, nah, they'll come to us.

[1721] He's right.

[1722] He's right.

[1723] And it works.

[1724] It's a cool thing happening here right now, man. And Kill Tony is a giant cornerstone of it.

[1725] Your show is the cornerstone of, and I was telling Tony this last night when we're having dinner together.

[1726] it's like it's the cornerstone of the comedy community for Austin and I think for the whole country because it teaches young comics to just be funny just be funny find your voice up there but the most important thing is you gotta be funny you only have one minute you can't virtue signal you can't talk about your victimhood no one wants to hear it right you have one minute to be funny that's the art form the meat of the joke yeah and if you eventually develop a following you develop an act and in your act you have layers and all all kinds of different stories and that's great too that's good and that's a lot what youtube's for and there's a lot of great comics like ali sadik his whole act is these stories i love all right he's so good and he can turn over an hour like nobody yeah because his stories are so good he's got so many of them and so when he but when he does that that's not going to work on kill tony that's a different kind of act but it's still along the same vein it's still he's funny you know and if he had to condense it to one minute 100 % he could do that like that's what it teaches to be funny, just be funny.

[1727] Yeah, because a big majority of people can't even do a minute.

[1728] Like, they can't even get one joke out in a minute.

[1729] Most people.

[1730] Yeah, it's crazy.

[1731] Yeah, it's hard.

[1732] It's fucking hard.

[1733] Especially if you're not good at editing.

[1734] If you're one of those guys doing open mic nights, you don't know how sloppy your stuff is and how much fat is in it.

[1735] People, it's a difficult skill to learn how to condense a joke into, you know, I really learned it from Joey.

[1736] I think Joey is the best at it Because Joey's set up punchline Bam, it's always so electric Like when Joey's killing It's always the punchline sneak in Before you ever see him coming And you're fucking crying He's the best at that He really enforced this idea That I was already aware of Which is the economy of words Like you say it With the least amount of words possible In the best way possible Except sometimes Sometimes you have to explain things Sometimes you have to take the people on a little journey.

[1737] that's also a different kind of form of comment.

[1738] I mean, I like going into a nice story.

[1739] I mean, sure, it's edited down and it's, you know, not as long as I used to be, but I like that sometimes.

[1740] Well, that's where Ari's show was so good.

[1741] Yeah.

[1742] You know, the, this is not happening when he was doing that.

[1743] I remember when he started that.

[1744] We were all hanging out and he said, I'm going to do a storyteller show.

[1745] Like, what do you?

[1746] It's a good way to develop material.

[1747] That is a good way to develop material.

[1748] People know, you're just going to tell stories.

[1749] Because if you try to tell a story on stage, there's this expectation of like constant punch lines.

[1750] So he figured out how to tell funny stories.

[1751] And we all sort of joined in on that.

[1752] You know, remember we used to do the lab at the improv?

[1753] Oh, yeah.

[1754] That little room, which was the perfect place for it.

[1755] That, they should have never got rid of that little room.

[1756] I thought it's still there.

[1757] No. What's it now?

[1758] Oh, they just check.

[1759] No, there's the bar in that little room in front of the bar, which is hot death.

[1760] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[1761] Everybody eats a dick in that bar.

[1762] That's the worst room.

[1763] I hate that room.

[1764] That room is just something about it.

[1765] Meanwhile, the other room was amazing.

[1766] It's crazy how just the setup of a room changes everything.

[1767] Right.

[1768] If you have a room where it's fully contained, you don't have to constantly hear the door opening.

[1769] You don't have constantly people shuffling through, getting to the other room, which is what that room has.

[1770] And then the bathroom is right on the corner, which mixes with the green room area.

[1771] Like, all that chaos, there's too much chaos in that room.

[1772] Yeah.

[1773] And it's not set up.

[1774] It's a curtain there.

[1775] Get the fuck out of here.

[1776] Right.

[1777] Go back to what you had.

[1778] You had a door when you went in a whole new room, and that whole new room had a small stage, and everybody was packed in tight, and it was magic.

[1779] Yeah, they screwed that up a lot.

[1780] Remember the mural?

[1781] At least they got rid of that.

[1782] How many times do we have to give them a hard time about it, though?

[1783] It took a while.

[1784] We would constantly goofing on it.

[1785] Everyone looked like dolphins.

[1786] Yeah, who is that?

[1787] That's Richard Pryor.

[1788] No, it's not.

[1789] There was so many people on that wall that was just like, what are you looking at?

[1790] I'm kind of scared to go to the ice house because, you know, that was such a beautiful.

[1791] Both of those stages were pretty beautiful.

[1792] And all the photos I see now, it looks like you're at a, I don't know, a sports game or something.

[1793] It's supposed to still be really good, though.

[1794] Everybody I know that's worked that said the room is still pretty good.

[1795] I mean, not pretty good, really good.

[1796] It's still a great space, you know.

[1797] They did kind of jazz it up a little bit and clean it up, which is like the last thing I would have ever done to that place.

[1798] Right.

[1799] I would have left everything exactly the way it was, made some improvements.

[1800] You can make some improvements and not change the...

[1801] Because that room was magic.

[1802] That room was so good that agents wouldn't accept a tape from there.

[1803] Like if someone did a set from there, they're like, no, I need to see you at another block.

[1804] Right, because it was a cheat code.

[1805] Everyone killed there.

[1806] Why is that?

[1807] Because it was like a road show.

[1808] Especially when you lived in L .A., you're so used to these horrible audiences where half of it was managers and Hollywood staff and people in the industry.

[1809] So when you would go there, no one of those people ever drove over there.

[1810] So it felt like, oh, this is like I'm on the road.

[1811] Yeah, it was like the road, right?

[1812] They were appreciative, and it was fun, and they were just regular people.

[1813] Yeah, they weren't, like, industry adjacent.

[1814] Right.

[1815] I mean, how many people, when you go to the comedy store on a regular night?

[1816] Just, like, actors and producers and...

[1817] Agent Show, it's an agent show.

[1818] I remember there's this lady in the front room, she turned out to be some executive for one of the networks, and she was, like, stopping the comics from saying anything.

[1819] Don't say that.

[1820] Stop saying she was drunk, and then we found out she was an executive.

[1821] Like, what the fuck are you doing?

[1822] Interrupting art. You don't even know You shouldn't even be here This isn't even what you're involved in You think you have that carte blanche Just because you're sort of connected to comedy somehow Because occasionally your network Hires Comedians for sitcoms Like get out of here The fuck out of here But that was the mentality that those people had Like they could just tell you what to do and what to say They were used to telling people what to do They thought they could just stop comedy You know, it was so annoying There's so many arms cross so many people in that crowd they just went they didn't go there to have a good time a lot of them went there and they were upset that they weren't on stage yeah there's a lot of that just that fucking weirdness of hollywood it's such a but it also made for a great place to practice too because if your shit worked there you work anywhere exactly if you get a if you could kill at the store and the oar that was a legit set i saw doug stanhope uh at skankfest the other day oh yeah He drank his own piss on stage.

[1823] Oh, well, good move.

[1824] Definitely a good substitute for writing.

[1825] Have you seen the preview for his movie, his new movie?

[1826] That looks so good.

[1827] No, I haven't seen it.

[1828] It's called, like, on the road or something.

[1829] Is it a documentary?

[1830] No, it's a movie made by somebody famous, and it's about being on the road.

[1831] Okay, I have to pee, want to come back, we'll watch the trailer.

[1832] Cool.

[1833] All right back.

[1834] And we're back.

[1835] Hi, everybody.

[1836] The movie's called Road Dogs And Jamie said It actually won some awards Oh shit The Road Dog Is this about comics?

[1837] Greg Fitzsimis is in it You should watch the trailer It's like, whoa Doug Press, let's go No, jump up Jesus He got their hands Why is that?

[1838] Is this it?

[1839] He's been doing it for over 30 years Please welcome The Road Dog Jimmy Quinn My name is Jimmy and I'm an alcoholic.

[1840] What are you feeling, Jimmy?

[1841] You look a little worn out.

[1842] I'm a road comic.

[1843] I am worn out.

[1844] No way.

[1845] I'm not the maid.

[1846] I'm your son.

[1847] Can I figure of lunch?

[1848] Give me a minute.

[1849] I'm sure I'm not what you expected.

[1850] You're exactly what you expected.

[1851] Imagine you want to be a comedian.

[1852] Maybe it's genetic.

[1853] I just dropped down at med school.

[1854] Hold your applause.

[1855] It's funny.

[1856] spend a little bit more time together.

[1857] I'm afraid you won't be receiving any money, but I will pray for you.

[1858] You got a nice kid there.

[1859] Certainly thinks highly in you.

[1860] He doesn't know me that well, Phil.

[1861] I'm a little nervous, because I know what you did to your last headlining act.

[1862] I've been booking Jimmy 20 years.

[1863] The father's probably one of the funniest people I've been in all life.

[1864] But he has no discipline.

[1865] Comedy's about pain.

[1866] It's like he doesn't even care.

[1867] He's an addict.

[1868] Until he decides he wants to do it for himself.

[1869] There's nothing you or anyone else can do it for him.

[1870] How come we never made on TV?

[1871] TV isn't real comedy.

[1872] Real comedy's live, you know, in the moment.

[1873] I go on that stage, I'm the talent, I'm the writer, I'm the director.

[1874] If the customer doesn't like it, I tell the customer to go for it.

[1875] Who is in the car?

[1876] Oh, that's David.

[1877] My son.

[1878] Top that for a living.

[1879] How I made Jesus, I'm depressed already I know, right And I think Doug Stando had sex To have a kid Yeah Old Douglas It was great having him at the club Yeah He was there early on One of the first ones we did Came down Checked it out Just cool having him around I love that guy Yeah Such an original human He's such uniquely Doug I mean he is who he is Absolutely And his girl And his manager Yeah the whole thing The whole crew Chaos crew Funny people man Is he still doing his podcast?

[1880] I believe so I mean his I know his place had Caught on fire So I'm not sure if that was a part of it or not Bro We've been doing this since 2009 I think crazy The beginning when we first started doing Everybody's like what the fuck are you doing We actually did it even more before that too You know you know back in the justin tv days we try a few different versions of something yeah where we fuck around in the green room we try to a few different versions of like this idea that we could just stream stuff and have fun it was just but that's i think why it worked because it was all just fun like no one ever thought it was going to be a business yeah it was more just hanging out yeah doing tech stuff within your office having a good time being silly you know You know, we thought of a lot of versions of it.

[1881] I mean, before Twitch was a thing, you know, imagine in a world where people would make a living just streaming video games online.

[1882] Like, they just like playing video games.

[1883] Then all of a sudden this thing came along, and now people make crazy money.

[1884] Well, people watch and play video games.

[1885] Like, what?

[1886] I watched four hours of a guy playing, putter playing Grand Theft Auto role playing last night.

[1887] wonder how much different is that than me watching pool it's probably the same you know not much different you know wouldn't it be better if you're playing yes definitely but is it there's a thing in watching people play stuff like it's exciting well especially if you play that thing like if you're watching someone like you're watching Elon play Diablo right and you play Diablo something's exciting about that yeah no one saw that coming either no one saw a podcast coming no one saw that coming there's a bunch of these things that no one's on common and I think the next thing is definitely that Zuck and Lex stuff well you've been doing VR for a long time you've been doing these fuck around yeah it's just me playing video games pretty much but yeah it's and you know it's it's hard to like communicate because it's 2D you're watching me play it on TV so it just looks like I'm playing a regular video game like in a chat room or something So the idea of like that, like Lex and Zuck doing it, that kind of shows more like, hey, these people aren't together.

[1888] That's not them, you know?

[1889] Right.

[1890] That's crazy.

[1891] And I think that, I think once Apple also releases it, it's going to be a different world when it comes to that stuff, I think.

[1892] Yeah, I think so too.

[1893] And I think if everybody gets on, if it's as easy as getting on your phone, because it's not going to be in the beginning.

[1894] No. Not everybody's going to have that thing.

[1895] It might be one of those things that we look.

[1896] at like this like 2023 to 2025 discontinued yeah yeah it might be but it might eventually boil down to a pair of glasses that you wear some cool looking glasses that allow you to do all this wild shit you scan your face using your iPhone the thing is like where's the battery going to be and how much battery life is it going to have well that's the one thing that apple i think did wrong is that this first generation of theirs the battery you're wearing it on your like belt which is what everybody he loves.

[1897] Yeah, I mean, you know Steve Jobs would never have allowed that.

[1898] No way.

[1899] Never.

[1900] No way.

[1901] He probably would have said we can't do it yet.

[1902] No. Or just, I mean, put the battery in the back.

[1903] Yeah, even that's not going to work.

[1904] It needs to be big.

[1905] That battery is like a brick.

[1906] I mean, you're carrying around essentially like a tablet.

[1907] Like, how big is the battery?

[1908] It's about the size, it's like bigger than an iPhone.

[1909] It's about the size of an iPhone, but it's a little thicker.

[1910] It's kind of heavy, right?

[1911] It's got to be all back.

[1912] Yeah, but it's only like two hours, three -hour battery pack, too, though.

[1913] They probably wanted to give you a backpack.

[1914] But then again, like what is going on with having that electronic strapped to you?

[1915] Like, is that good for you?

[1916] That's what it looks like.

[1917] So that thing sits in your pocket, that brick?

[1918] Or your belt, yeah.

[1919] And the cool thing, though, is that you can just, it's MagSafe, you know?

[1920] So they want you to buy multiple ones.

[1921] So you can't take it off.

[1922] And I think there's an internal battery that lasts a small.

[1923] So you can take it off without disconnecting Right and then swap it So you're going to have like 10 of those things Are you though?

[1924] I mean I'm going to There's going to be a bunch of people that do do it It looks dope that lady in the upper corner The back world one Yeah click the upper Yeah with the eyes That thing's the creepiest thing You're going to see people walking around like that Oh my God All like dead eyed I could see 6th street Phil with people walking out street like that Heck yeah Because you're going to be able to get an Uber from that thing you're going to be able to order food from that thing, right?

[1925] Yep.

[1926] I like it.

[1927] I think it's going to be, I think just because it's so unique and crazy, and especially the I thing, I think people are going to be, like, jealous when other people have it.

[1928] Because the first year, supposedly, they're not going to make that many of them to make it even more desirable, you know.

[1929] And this is augmented reality, right?

[1930] So what are the features it's going to offer you that it's going to make you walk down Congress?

[1931] It's going to be VR and AR, but, yeah, things like having.

[1932] stuff pop up like you know like maps and stuff like like go turn right here and like or phone calls or you'll be able to do face time with people you know while you're going to drive with that thing they originally didn't show anyone outside of their house though so right that there'll be another step developers going to someone's going to have to make something that makes you take it out of your house and put it on sort of right right it's got to be feasible that you can walk around with this thing on and they're also not putting it on their shoulders to make that they're like yeah developers go ahead and buy it and start thinking a cool shit Because we're not going to take that responsibility.

[1933] And then when you do have it, what's to stop you from watching a movie while you're driving?

[1934] Yeah.

[1935] I mean, people are fucking stupid.

[1936] It would be cool, though, to have that on while you're driving and kind of like what Tesla has, like the boxes around people.

[1937] So it's like, watch out for, you know, to the right.

[1938] Do you remember when people were playing Pokemon Go in their cars?

[1939] Yeah.

[1940] It was real common.

[1941] Yeah.

[1942] I remember I was in my truck, so I was in my Lexus, the SUV, So I was looking down at this lady She was driving erratically And I'm like, this bitch is playing Pokemon She was playing Pokemon while she was driving So she had the Pokemon up And she was looking at that while she was driving That was a weird week When that game came out I remember going to the comedy store Literally every single comic had their phone open playing it People on the sidewalk was all like teamed up in a big group Like strangers just playing it Because I guess there was like a fighting ring At the comedy store that everyone wanted to play and yeah it was What happened?

[1943] Why did it die?

[1944] The novelty kind of wore off of it, I think You know, it's just like everything You know, after like two weeks or so I'll still pull it out once in a while in play And see like, oh, what's around my house?

[1945] You know, but You know What?

[1946] How many monthly players do you think they average?

[1947] It's still huge in Asia, I know that Let me say 50 million 78 over the last 30 days What?

[1948] Yeah, it's still huge in Asia.

[1949] But in America, I would love to see what the drop -off was.

[1950] Yeah.

[1951] Where it was?

[1952] I opened it up like a month ago, and there was still people playing around me where I live in the middle of nowhere.

[1953] So there's still people probably playing.

[1954] So there's still about a million people in America playing it.

[1955] That's only a million, though.

[1956] Yeah, that's not much.

[1957] What was it at the peak?

[1958] It had a crazy hot.

[1959] Crazy, yeah.

[1960] I wonder what happened to those people?

[1961] They just woke up?

[1962] Yeah.

[1963] Imagine, like, bro, we got this.

[1964] Right.

[1965] Imagine what they were thinking, dude, we got them.

[1966] They're hooked forever, forever.

[1967] This is going to be like every other game that people get addicted to.

[1968] And then everybody was just like, get the fuck out of here with this thing.

[1969] There's three times as many people in the U .S. than Japan playing it.

[1970] Really?

[1971] According to this, the statistic.

[1972] Are we the number one?

[1973] No, I think Korea probably.

[1974] I mean, it doesn't have, yeah, it has U .S. number one, great Britain, number two, Japan, number three, Sweden and Canada, but there might be leaving out.

[1975] So we're number one.

[1976] Number one.

[1977] Fuck you know.

[1978] America.

[1979] Oh, yeah.

[1980] What is the number one country where video games are played?

[1981] Is it America?

[1982] That or China.

[1983] Right?

[1984] I would think.

[1985] I don't know.

[1986] Yeah, I would imagine it would be...

[1987] I mean, I know that video game, like, those leagues are huge in Asia.

[1988] Uh -huh.

[1989] You know, like Korea.

[1990] StarCraft was the big one, right?

[1991] They used to have those giant tournaments.

[1992] Yep.

[1993] Now it's like League of Legends and stuff.

[1994] China won U .S. 2.

[1995] video game players.

[1996] Do you ever talk to...

[1997] Do you ever talk to Carmack anymore?

[1998] Yeah, occasionally.

[1999] Yeah, we were going back and forth on Twitter the other day.

[2000] Remember when we went down to his office?

[2001] Back in the Disney.

[2002] That was 17 years ago or something.

[2003] At least.

[2004] Yeah.

[2005] At least.

[2006] Yeah, that was when they were developing Quake 3.

[2007] Yeah.

[2008] That was awesome.

[2009] To be able to play Quake with those guys in their own studios?

[2010] That was a dream.

[2011] Boy, that made you realize how much.

[2012] work is involved.

[2013] And making a video game, like, oh.

[2014] Yeah.

[2015] Oh.

[2016] That's work.

[2017] Like, you need a guy like Carmack who just sits there for 16 hours a day.

[2018] Just coding.

[2019] Just a crazy stat.

[2020] I don't know if you know.

[2021] I feel like I don't believe it.

[2022] Three out of four Americans play video games on various consoles with more than half playing on mobile phones.

[2023] You don't think that's true?

[2024] I mean, I guess, like, is it for five minutes minimum per month or something like that?

[2025] U .S. Trails China with over 244 million gamers.

[2026] China has 665 million gamers.

[2027] Woo!

[2028] It translated into 40 .85 billion in revenue for 2020.

[2029] Ukraine's like, that's not enough.

[2030] We need more.

[2031] Although the 2018 license freeze slowed down the Y -O -Y growth rate, the Chinese gaming market was still able to post a modest from 36 .5 billion in 2019.

[2032] Like a modest increase, I think I was supposed to say there.

[2033] Right.

[2034] Wow.

[2035] So three out of four Americans play video games.

[2036] You think that's too high, Jamie?

[2037] Yeah.

[2038] I mean, would you consider yourself a gamer even though you don't play now?

[2039] I mean, you were a one, but...

[2040] No, I definitely wouldn't consider myself now.

[2041] I haven't played a game in years.

[2042] Well, but I think my mom even opens up, like, crossword games or like...

[2043] Subway surfers.

[2044] Yeah.

[2045] Subway surfers.

[2046] Yeah.

[2047] Subway surfers is addictive, man. People love that.

[2048] Yeah, but, you know, there's like parent games, even, you know, like...

[2049] Yeah, those are video games.

[2050] Yeah.

[2051] I guess.

[2052] Chess.

[2053] Chess.

[2054] You play chess in your phone.

[2055] Isn't that a video game?

[2056] Yeah.

[2057] Or that mind sweep thing.

[2058] Yeah, that's the ultimate one to play online.

[2059] Chess?

[2060] Because you can kind of get a game at any point in time with some wizard all over the world.

[2061] You guys can head fuck each other.

[2062] This wild game.

[2063] Put butt plugs in.

[2064] It's been around for thousands of years.

[2065] That poor guy.

[2066] Who?

[2067] That chess champion.

[2068] Everyone thinks put butt plug in his ass.

[2069] Oh, yeah.

[2070] They think he cheated.

[2071] Somehow, and one of the ideas was anal beads.

[2072] Yeah, vibrating anal beads.

[2073] My thought is, like, how, first of all, that guy, I think, has cheated before.

[2074] I think he could have admitted that he did online.

[2075] Yeah.

[2076] But also plays really good chess.

[2077] Like, he's a top -level chess player, too.

[2078] Mm -hmm.

[2079] And I think a lot of those, like, really ambitious guys, they cheated just to jack up their rating.

[2080] Right.

[2081] You know, like, it's kind of a thing to have, like, a very high rating.

[2082] Right.

[2083] And then they always accuse each other of cheating.

[2084] Of course.

[2085] Because you could cheat.

[2086] How would you, and why would you think he had like a vibrating butt plug in also of all things?

[2087] See, that just is a fun thing to say.

[2088] Right.

[2089] It's like when they said Trump had hookers pee on them.

[2090] It's a fun thing to say.

[2091] You know, who knows what's true.

[2092] But if I was going to cheat at a chess match and I used vibrating anal beads.

[2093] We don't know the answer.

[2094] They just reached an agreement and they're going to not talk about it anymore, I guess.

[2095] So they settled a dispute over cheating claims at Rock Chess.

[2096] U .S. player had filed lawsuit against the former world champion parties agreed to move forward after a series of allegations.

[2097] I think if you can't prove that he cheated, and it seems like they can't prove, they just suspected that he cheated.

[2098] Hans Neiman, a rising star in the chess world, filed a $100 million lawsuit against Magnus Carlson, the website Chess .com, and chess streamer, Hikaru Nakamura, after allegations that he had cheated, the allegations began after Neiman.

[2099] Neiman beat Carlson, widely considered one of the greatest players in history in a match.

[2100] How do you say that word?

[2101] At the Sink Field Cup last year, the Norwegian implied that the then teenager had cheated.

[2102] A week later, Carlson refused to play in an online game against the American opting instead to resign.

[2103] Neiman has admitted to cheating online when he was 12 and 16, but insists he has never done so over the board.

[2104] He also promised to play naked to prove his innocence what a woman.

[2105] about your butt.

[2106] Yeah.

[2107] That makes me suspicious.

[2108] After unfounded claims may have used vibrating anal beads were amplified by Elon Musk.

[2109] Elon.

[2110] You're doing.

[2111] Amplified.

[2112] That's a funny term.

[2113] Chess .com, which has millions of users around the world, concluded in a 72 -page report released last October that Neiman had likely cheated in online matches between July 2015 and August 2020.

[2114] Neiman denied those allegations The report did not find any evidence that Neiman had cheated in in -person matches.

[2115] So a U .S. judge dismissed Neiman's suit in June on Monday, Chess .com said the parties have agreed to move forward with no further threat of legal action.

[2116] Well, I guess that's good.

[2117] The thing is, it's like, it's hard to say because the guy is really good, too.

[2118] It's like he's a really good chess player as well.

[2119] He had been fully, scroll back on it said, at this time, Hans has been fully reinstated to Chess .com.

[2120] and we look forward to his participation in our events.

[2121] We would also like to reaffirm that we stand by the findings in our October 22 public report regarding Hans, including that we found no determinative evidence that he has cheated in any in -person games.

[2122] We all love chess and appreciate all of the passionate fans and community members who allow us to do what we do.

[2123] Okay, that's fair.

[2124] It makes it interesting.

[2125] Now people are paying attention to chess.

[2126] That's one good thing about it that people need to recognize.

[2127] Like, that was a lot of publicity for chess.

[2128] It just seems like idiocracy, you know, the movie ideocracy, that now before a chess match, there might be a choice where we had to put up a curtain and have a doctor look at each of the player's assholes before they can play a game of chess.

[2129] Maybe there's a thing you could swallow and it would vibrate inside of you.

[2130] Oh, yeah.

[2131] Swallow.

[2132] Yeah.

[2133] I mean, sure, there's way more than that, too.

[2134] I mean, if you're talking about a lot of money, I don't know how much money chess players make.

[2135] What's like a, what's a big tournament in chess?

[2136] What's like grand prize?

[2137] What do you get, take a guess?

[2138] Oh, God.

[2139] A million?

[2140] No, I don't think it's, you think, you know, a few hundred K?

[2141] Yeah, I was thinking.

[2142] I think, okay, let's find out the biggest amount of money ever won in a chess tournament.

[2143] Wow.

[2144] I say it's a million.

[2145] I'd say it's 4 .5 million.

[2146] That's probably right.

[2147] I'm probably under.

[2148] But I think most chess matches, because there's no money in chess.

[2149] I think in other countries, people really value chess a lot more than they valued in America for some strange.

[2150] But we do value it as like if you're good at chess, you have to be smart.

[2151] Like if someone says they're really good at chess, like, oh.

[2152] You immediately think they're smart.

[2153] They have to be smart.

[2154] It's like one game.

[2155] Like you could be really good at hockey and be a moron, like I guess.

[2156] I would imagine.

[2157] I don't know.

[2158] I mean, I know a lot of people play hockey are brilliant.

[2159] But it's possible that you could just be a goon, right?

[2160] And just like to smash people and check into people and you're good at skating.

[2161] But if I talk to you about the world, I would imagine you don't have a nuance take.

[2162] But if you tell me that you're a chess grandmaster, I'm like, oh, that's a smart person.

[2163] It's an extraordinarily smart person, like universally smart.

[2164] Like, I don't think there's a single moron that's like a chess grandmaster.

[2165] I don't think it's possible.

[2166] You could be a moron and be, like, really good at some things.

[2167] Checkers.

[2168] You could be a moron and have, like, a crazy fastball.

[2169] Like, that's all you do is you just fucking throw that ball so fast and accurate.

[2170] But you might be a moron.

[2171] It's possible.

[2172] You're probably brilliant.

[2173] I'm not saying that all pitchers are morons, but I think there's a possibility that you can be a moron.

[2174] Whereas if you're a chest grandmaster, there's zero possibility you're dumb.

[2175] Right?

[2176] I would say.

[2177] Agreed?

[2178] I would agree.

[2179] Yeah.

[2180] So that's a unique game.

[2181] So I have two answers, I guess, to two questions.

[2182] You said the biggest prize ever awarded is a little different.

[2183] than, like, how they really do it.

[2184] But the biggest prize ever, I guess we could do a guess.

[2185] It's like to guess.

[2186] It's the 1992.

[2187] I said 4 .5.

[2188] I said 1 million.

[2189] So 5 million is the biggest match ever.

[2190] Wow.

[2191] Between two guys, Fisher and Spaskey, so maybe Bobby Fisher.

[2192] Mm -hmm.

[2193] Though there are 27 different people that have won over a million dollars playing chess.

[2194] Okay.

[2195] All right.

[2196] There's 27 people that won over a million dollars playing pool.

[2197] Yeah.

[2198] Because, you know.

[2199] I would say the average is probably.

[2200] They make a quarter million dollars a year, the best guys.

[2201] Casparov is listed as the top overall at $17 .2 million.

[2202] Another guy at 14 .2.

[2203] Kasparov is an interesting guy.

[2204] Very vocal.

[2205] And it is like anti -Russian government talk on social media.

[2206] It's like, I'd be fucking nervous if I was that, dude.

[2207] You know?

[2208] I don't know if he lived here.

[2209] There's certain things you don't talk about.

[2210] that and Michael Jackson You're a lot of talking about him.

[2211] No, I tweeted one thing about Michael Jackson once and I was getting attacked.

[2212] Yeah, you should read the comments.

[2213] The Michael Jackson one is crazy because there's like most people think he did something wrong.

[2214] Most people and yet his music plays everywhere.

[2215] That's how good he is.

[2216] Or it was.

[2217] And that's like the best cautionary tale as to how sideways you can go with fame.

[2218] Like you went the most sideways that anybody ever went.

[2219] It's really weird seeing him.

[2220] I watched some video of, you know, when they were asking him questions about things, you know, and he, and the video made it look like he had a big hole in his nose.

[2221] I don't know.

[2222] Yeah, he did.

[2223] His nose had collapsed.

[2224] That was a hole.

[2225] Yeah.

[2226] Okay, I thought, I thought it was just weird shadows.

[2227] I'm like, it looks like he has a, no, I don't think it was, I think this is all pre -photoshop days.

[2228] Uh, I think he, I think he had skin grafts on his nose, because if you have too many nose surgeries, right?

[2229] First of all, there's something that can happen where the tissue dies like he cut into things too many times the tissue dies i have wood nostril yeah i think he burned a hole through that's what he said he used to always say i was i was i always wondered if that was real like is that just like with joey the thing about joey was everything was a crazy exaggeration that was funny that was like his style of comedy it's like you know everything was like 20 you know he'd say something just something ridiculous where you know it couldn't be possible and you had to laugh yeah he's just cartoon he's a cartoon he's a cartoon yeah he's the best i miss him that's one person i really really wish lived here well he's gonna come visit you know he did this he did uh the mothership one night he came by they went nuts every time he goes anywhere people go nuts but you know he's enjoying himself in new jersey yeah he likes new jersey and when i went there with him i get it i get it it's nice relaxed he goes to these italian restaurants you all know who he is everybody knows them they're all nice nice normal people he likes it yeah his kid likes it his wife likes it it'd be cool to have florentina's a neighbor too i think that's yeah i mean he he's gonna come down every now and again hang out with us he also you don't want him coming here in the summer and yelling at no no the fuck is this jo rogan 107 degrees yikes the fuck is 107 degrees yeah that was a little much this year this year you know it was pretty extreme it's interesting Yeah.

[2230] It's like anybody who denies, like people want to deny climate change.

[2231] Like, don't do that.

[2232] No. Don't do that.

[2233] Listen, we can debate what impact human beings are having on it and what should be done about it.

[2234] That, certainly.

[2235] But the idea that something's going on, like, yeah.

[2236] Are you looking at the weather?

[2237] Right.

[2238] Are you paying attention?

[2239] It seems like it's really hot in the summer.

[2240] I mean, maybe that's just a streak and it's going to go back to cool again.

[2241] Maybe not.

[2242] though.

[2243] The thing about it is, this is what no one wants to admit on either side of that is that it never stays flat.

[2244] The climate always does this.

[2245] Before we were ever around.

[2246] It gets crazy hot and then there's an ice age and then the polar caps melt and the fucking sea rises and they find ancient civilizations underwater because there used to be a town there.

[2247] All this pottery's there because the people got drowned out because the ocean moved.

[2248] It's always changed.

[2249] It's always changed.

[2250] What we should be concentrating on more than anything, I think, is what we're doing to the ocean.

[2251] What we're doing to the ocean is crazy.

[2252] Yeah.

[2253] We've killed.

[2254] We tried to figure out how much it is.

[2255] It's hard.

[2256] They don't know what the real estimates are, but some people estimate it's like as high as 90 % of the big fish in the ocean are missing.

[2257] Like we just scooped them up with nets and fucking served them up in cans, in the tuna cans and sushi.

[2258] and we went ham.

[2259] And then we're throwing plastic in the ocean.

[2260] Microplastics are now in rain.

[2261] That's crazy.

[2262] That's convenient if you want to get your micropastics and you die.

[2263] If you're trying to disrupt your endocrine system, you'd have time to eat credit cards.

[2264] Just drink water.

[2265] It's in the rain.

[2266] Oh, my God.

[2267] Of course it's in the rain.

[2268] It gets evaporated.

[2269] It's in the water.

[2270] It evaporates, goes in the sky.

[2271] Did you read that new study?

[2272] Something shocking about, like one out of three women who drank Diet Coke during pregnancy had an autistic kid.

[2273] Oh, my God.

[2274] And they're now, like, putting this connection to Diet Coke and diet shows.

[2275] Is that real?

[2276] Aspartame?

[2277] It just came up.

[2278] Yeah, it was.

[2279] This was, like, two weeks ago, I read this.

[2280] Oh, my God.

[2281] And that's scary because there is a lot more, I think, more autistic people or people in the spectrum than there used to be.

[2282] Like, it seems like it's.

[2283] Study finds link between drinking some diet soda during pregnancy and autism.

[2284] autism and boys.

[2285] Oh, boy.

[2286] So it says a team of researchers said they have observed a link between autism diagnosis and boys and their mothers drinking at least one diet soda daily or consuming the equivalent amount of the sweetener aspirin during pregnancy or while breastfeeding according to new study.

[2287] In the study, the researcher at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio asked the parents of 235 children with an autism spectrum disorder and 121 children without autism, who are the study's controls, to complete a retrospective questionnaire about their diet soda and aspartame intake while pregnant or breastfeeding their children.

[2288] Researchers asked biological mothers, while you were pregnant or breastfeeding your child, how often did you drink diet drinks containing artificial sweeteners?

[2289] Please count diet sodas first, such as Diet Coke, Dr. Pepper, and Diet Sprite, and then other diet drinks such as citrus light, sugar -free Kool -Aid, slim fast, and other light drinks.

[2290] Note not all the diet beverages contain aspartame.

[2291] The researchers did not ask women to only think about aspartame containing diet beverages they consume while pregnant or breastfeeding.

[2292] However, all drinks listed in the survey's examples do contain aspartame.

[2293] Team found that boys with autism had more than three times the likelihood of having a mother who drank diet soda daily while pregnant or breastfeeding than boys without autism, per the findings published in the peer -reviewed journal nutrients.

[2294] Whoa.

[2295] The researchers did not find a statistically significant association with girls.

[2296] That's interesting.

[2297] Why it's more difficult to diagnose girls with autism than boys.

[2298] These associations do not prove causality.

[2299] That's a different link.

[2300] But taken in concert with reports from earlier studies of increased prematurity and cardiometabolic health impacts among infants and children exposed daily to diet beverages, holy shit or aspartame during pregnancy are findings raised new questions about the potential neurological impacts that need to be addressed didn't that shit get pushed through didn't aspartame get pushed through by um who's that fucking the military guy the fucks his name all over no no it's the tip of my tongue the guy who was on the the guy who they was talking about the pentagon missing a trillion dollars remember that guy don't rump Didn't Donald Rumsfeld have something to do with Aspartame?

[2301] I think you're on to something, yeah.

[2302] Yeah, I think, see, Google Donald Rumsfeld pushed through aspartame.

[2303] Did he?

[2304] Hold on.

[2305] I see.

[2306] I think there were some shenanigans involved in aspartame, and this is coming from someone who consumes it all the time.

[2307] Yeah.

[2308] I mean, it is poison, it's poison, pretty much, right?

[2309] But is it poison like alcohol, or it's okay, but it's not okay when you're breastfeeding?

[2310] you know what I'm saying like you could have a few glasses of wine if you're not breastfeeding right you can get a little tipsy and you're going to be okay you could have a few tequila and have a hangover the next day yeah yeah you drank something you shouldn't drank but it's not going to fuck you up that bad but if you are pregnant right your kid can have fetal alcohol syndrome right I think there's a there's a difference between saying that something is dangerous and saying something is dangerous while someone's pregnant right because like Elon was talking about like how much Diet Coke he drinks.

[2311] If that guy's drinking Diet Coke, I am not that worried.

[2312] Right.

[2313] Seems pretty fucking smart.

[2314] So there's a story here.

[2315] It says Donna Rumsfeld was involved with a company called, I think, Cyril, it said here.

[2316] See, he was a CEO at Cyril.

[2317] He received a $12 million bonus in 1985 when the company was absorbed by Monsanto.

[2318] Right here then, I had to go back.

[2319] It says that he was involved with picking the new head of the FDA, or the FTA.

[2320] commissioner, and that guy had no previous history in artificial sweeteners.

[2321] He had no previous experience with food additives before being appointed director of the FDA.

[2322] Interesting.

[2323] So Hayes, Reagan's new FDA commissioner, appointed a five -person scientific commission to review the board of inquiry's decision.

[2324] It soon became clear that the panel would uphold the ban by a three -to -two decision.

[2325] So Hayes installed a six member on the commission and the vote became deadlocked.

[2326] He then personally broke the tie in Aspartame's favor.

[2327] Whoa, shenanigans.

[2328] One of Hayes' first official acts, his FDA chief, was to approve the use of Aspartame as an artificial sweetener in dry goods.

[2329] On July 18, 1981, in order to accomplish this feat, Hayes had to overlook the scuttled grand jury testimony of Cyril.

[2330] I don't know if that has overcome the Brestler report and ignore the PBOI's recommendations and pretend Aspartame did not chronically sicken and kill thousands of lab animals.

[2331] What?

[2332] How many of them had?

[2333] Oh my God, how much have I taken?

[2334] Hayes left his post at the FDA in November of 1983 amid accusations that he was accepting corporate gifts for political favors.

[2335] That's crazy.

[2336] He wouldn't do that.

[2337] Just before leaving office in scandal, Hayes approved of the use of aspartame in beverages.

[2338] After Hayes left the FDA under allegations of impropriety, he served briefly as provost at New York Medical College and then took a position as a high -paid senior medical advisor with Bernson Marsteller, the chief public relations firm for both Monsanto and G .D. Searle.

[2339] Since that time, he's never spoken publicly about aspartame.

[2340] FYI, here's Rachel Maddow on Brunson Marteller, Marsteller.

[2341] When evil needs public relations, evil has Berson Marsteller on speed dial.

[2342] evil thy name is chemical food additives okay here's the kicker when surah was absorbed by montanto in 1985 donald rumsfeld reportedly received a 12 million dollar bonus okay so yeah there it is yeah so i think though what i think i've seen lane norton talk about is that the amount of aspartame that killed lab rats was preposterous like that a human being couldn't even consume that amount, that it would have to be something like, I forget the number, but it's some preposterous number, like you'd have to drink 1 ,800 Diet Coke's a day or something like that, something really nutty to get the amount that was sickening and killing these lab rats.

[2343] Well, how many of these rats had autism now?

[2344] How many of these rats were pussies?

[2345] You couldn't take a little diacrope.

[2346] Autistic rats everywhere, millions of them.

[2347] You know, there's the other thing that Brett Weinstein has brought up is like these lab mice and lab rats like they're bred for that purpose and so like they don't live long like it's not a good way to study long term effects and it's also like these are things that are literally bred to take fucking chemicals and have experiments run on them like the idea that these are just like normal mammals it seems a little far -fetched because you're actually literally breeding them for testing things on them.

[2348] They should just grab them from New York.

[2349] The New York rats?

[2350] Bro.

[2351] What a living hell.

[2352] To be an organism that just exists so that you can test potential toxins and poisons on human beings.

[2353] And so your very life only exists to make the intelligent life forms think that they can live longer and better with your medication and we all agree to it we all like yep good good way to do it practice on rats practice on monkeys yeah that's the most fucked up shit the monkey one is wild because they're sort of like us they're sort of like they can think and they can they react and they're grabbing things and you know you're sitting there like with fucking rods in your head and they're alive the monkey one's wild because like it's something like there's like levels of things were allowed to kill.

[2354] Like, if someone kills a bug, no one freaks out.

[2355] Like, I remember, uh, when I lived in Colorado, I went to this, uh, Buddhist ashram that was in my neighborhood.

[2356] Just, it was kind of in the neighborhood, seeing what they're doing.

[2357] And they actually had, uh, places they would rent out there, like houses that they had for rent.

[2358] So as people I knew that, like, wanted to live up there and they wanted to, you know, ran a place.

[2359] And the ladies had the ashram was spraying, bug killer on ants she had an ant problem and I go you poison the ants she's like well you know it's really not what we want to do but I go but you're a Buddhist you just committed mass murder for your convenience like if we think that every life form is a life form if we think that one equals one you know like one roach that dies or one mouse that gets run over by a combine in a field where they're trying to cultivate wheat one is one if that's the case like you can't be spraying bug spray on ants but we don't think that we like even vegans get hit by a mosquito that slap that motherfucker you know they kill that bitch right everybody kills mosquitoes fuck you i'm not going to be itchy for your life no one says just take from me what you need the only reason why you're doing is because you're needy please take from me and make me itchy.

[2360] Nobody does that.

[2361] Everybody swats.

[2362] If you find a tick, you pull that fucker off of you.

[2363] Oh my God, this tick, you kill it.

[2364] You don't go get it let it go so it can give Lyme disease to other folks and other animals.

[2365] Now you kill that little cock sucker, a little blood sucking piece of shit.

[2366] You find a leech on you, you know, a little leech, do what you must.

[2367] Take from me what you must.

[2368] No, you peel that bitch off.

[2369] If you have to rip it in half, you rip it in half.

[2370] But when it gets to, like, things with fur, then we go, oh, what are you doing?

[2371] That thing has hair Nothing has hair on it That's why people freak out Way more over Like if you have a picture With a dead deer Versus a picture with a fish Nobody gives their shit If you get your fish You'd hold up a bass Like David Lucas He doesn't no hate Nice bass David You know David's bass fishing motherfucker He's good at it He knows what he's doing He catches some nice bass But like nobody gets mad But if David was like Holding up a deer he shot People would Because it's got fur Except turtles and dolphins Yeah you can't kill I saw a video of somebody killing a turtle to eat it, though.

[2372] Turtle soup?

[2373] And that was one of the worst things I've ever seen.

[2374] If you think about this turtle, how old is he probably like 100 years old?

[2375] And he's just, he survived so much.

[2376] And now he's just got picked by a fisher.

[2377] I don't think those are the ones that live to be 100 years old.

[2378] I think those are sea turtles.

[2379] Right.

[2380] Those regular turtles, they make soup out of?

[2381] Yeah.

[2382] That bitch has been around for a couple weeks.

[2383] Oh, really?

[2384] I don't know.

[2385] I used to have pet turtles.

[2386] Yeah.

[2387] I used to have pepperanas and pet turtles.

[2388] And the pet turtles were way more ferocious.

[2389] Were they?

[2390] Ferocious.

[2391] We would feed them goldfish, and they would just swim over those goldfish and grab them with their little paws and just chomping to them.

[2392] It's like, whoa, they're ferocious.

[2393] They're little dinosaurs.

[2394] Turtles are fucking cool to have an aquarium.

[2395] But there's a lot of, like, risks of diseases and shit.

[2396] Really on turtles?

[2397] Yeah.

[2398] If you touch them, you have to really.

[2399] make sure you wash. I didn't know that.

[2400] Yeah, you can catch some funky shit.

[2401] And especially, look, they're shitting in this tank.

[2402] Right.

[2403] And then how often are you cleaning that water?

[2404] You mean, it's filtering.

[2405] But how much is it filtering?

[2406] How much are they shitting?

[2407] They're in there eating goldfish all the time.

[2408] They're probably shitting up a storm.

[2409] And they're big, right?

[2410] They're like this big.

[2411] You know, like, um...

[2412] I didn't even know this is a thing.

[2413] They eat blueberries?

[2414] No, turtle ASMR.

[2415] Oh, it's...

[2416] I've seen this before.

[2417] It's great.

[2418] Bro, that is an ancient being.

[2419] I mean, that is essentially like what we would have seen.

[2420] during the dinosaur era exactly what we expect to like a stegosaurus looked like yeah um sunny was the one that made you know remember sunny you had on uh your show that yes yes yes he's the one that has the video about eating the turtle and he said it was the first time that like him and his wife both were like should we even release this like it was the one thing that affected him the most though why there's something about turtles man if when you see this video yeah or you can probably take a peek of it but like the turtle is just like it is so fucking sad man that's a big ass turtle okay so that is one of those turtles yeah and that's one of those uh sea turtles yeah when they show his face like and they just have it like oh jesus yeah it is like look at that look at this oh yeah that's rough fucked up man i got so emotional about this video i mean just look at his little face they're gonna eat this thing oh they just start smashing it and so this is a thing they do all the time yeah Oh, my God, so the thing is still alive while they're killing it.

[2421] Yep.

[2422] It's horrible.

[2423] Oh, man. You know, there's a thing, too, about them having armor, so they kind of most of the time are protected.

[2424] Yeah.

[2425] That we kind of realize how vulnerable that when a person gets them.

[2426] Like, oh, no, he's going to get you now.

[2427] Yeah.

[2428] Like your whole life, you've had an awesome protection provided you by nature.

[2429] Oh, my God.

[2430] Oh, he's doing it while it's still alive.

[2431] Why doesn't he kill it first?

[2432] I think they smashed its head in her.

[2433] Dude, it's moving still.

[2434] Oh, God, I don't want to watch.

[2435] I stopped watching this part.

[2436] It seemed like when he was cutting into it, its legs were moving.

[2437] Okay, it's dead by then, right?

[2438] Yeah, it's got to be.

[2439] Bro, that's rough.

[2440] Why is it so rough?

[2441] Oh, geez.

[2442] How old is a sea turtle when it's that big?

[2443] That's what I'm saying.

[2444] And they're just going to eat it.

[2445] Yeah, he talks about how emotional he's getting in at this part.

[2446] Ooh, did he try it?

[2447] Oh, yeah.

[2448] Oh, boy, I guess you have to.

[2449] I mean, they already killed it.

[2450] Right.

[2451] And I guess the reason they're allowed to do it is because it's, like, their religion or something like that.

[2452] Part of the native traditions.

[2453] It's like the reason why people, like the Inuit, are allowed to hunt seals and whales and shit.

[2454] Yeah.

[2455] It's that interesting?

[2456] Like, there's animals that we're not, no one's allowed to hunt, but they can hunt them.

[2457] And then, like, Bordane did a show once where he went to this family's house, and they killed a seal.

[2458] and then they brought it home in the kitchen floor they laid it out and butchered it in the kitchen floor and they were all just eating raw seal on the kitchen floor like wow this is a and again modern times normal time like right now they're probably doing that right now somewhere someone has a seal and the whole family's excited they got one and they're eating raw seal like kids see if you can find that yeah pretty fascinating because you're you're you're you're realizing, like, well, if you lived up there, that's what you eat.

[2459] Like, you don't, so here's the whole family.

[2460] So they're sitting around in, I don't know where they were, but so they got this seal that they're butchering right there, and people are just taking bites.

[2461] Ew, blood everywhere.

[2462] Yeah, and they're eating the blood, they're eating everything.

[2463] Every little piece of nutritious meat that comes from that seal, they consume.

[2464] But the crazy thing is they're eating it raw, like, and he eats it raw, right there.

[2465] No. Can you give me some volume on this?

[2466] Not actually eaten, per se.

[2467] More sucked and chewed to extract a tiny nubbit of meat from within the blubber and cartilage.

[2468] Oh, that is good.

[2469] It's like, it tastes like a sea urchin raw.

[2470] And of course, and it was inevitable, really, wasn't it?

[2471] I've offered the best part, the eyeball.

[2472] Oh, God.

[2473] And he slid and sucked out like a fat Concord grape.

[2474] This is an act of pure generosity and kindness to an honored guest.

[2475] Cannibals.

[2476] You got to cut it in the middle.

[2477] Look how she has that, like, blubbered knife.

[2478] Has a blood smeared face and gore -covered hands ever looked so benevolent, so kind of sweet?

[2479] What?

[2480] He's hilarious.

[2481] I miss that, dude.

[2482] That's a, I mean, that's a real part of some people's lives.

[2483] Do you want, would you want to live in a world where everything goes madmacks?

[2484] Or would you want to get jacked?

[2485] Jacked.

[2486] Oh.

[2487] Like a missile to hit your house.

[2488] Probably jacked.

[2489] I would have to get some guns and stuff.

[2490] It's not even just that.

[2491] It's like what is life like.

[2492] I don't want to.

[2493] The people have done that.

[2494] That's why we're here.

[2495] here because people didn't pack it in right that's this is the kind of shit that keeps me up at night yeah i would definitely we would uh have the whole family get together and we would all shit each other or some of that same time oh jesus christ brian that'd be like that scene in the mist where the guy shoots his whole family then the military arrives and you realize he would have been safe yeah oh yeah that's right yeah that was this that's a good steven king book That book is creepy.

[2496] They did a good job at the movie.

[2497] The latest.

[2498] I think there's been more than one.

[2499] The Mists, have there's been more?

[2500] I don't know.

[2501] No, maybe not.

[2502] You know what I saw recently?

[2503] That I didn't know.

[2504] It said it was from 2022, but I don't think that's correct.

[2505] There was a Salem's lot with Rob Lowe.

[2506] Oh, yeah.

[2507] When was that?

[2508] My girlfriend saw it.

[2509] Okay, that makes sense.

[2510] Because it said 2022.

[2511] It might got put on, you know, like a stream service or something.

[2512] Right.

[2513] I think it was on Apple.

[2514] Let me see, but I did just see that when I was typing it in.

[2515] But, yeah, 2004, I think it was a TV miniseries.

[2516] I kind of remember it.

[2517] And it was a miniseries long before that, too.

[2518] Let's see, 2023.

[2519] Stephen King's TV shows are always so fun to watch.

[2520] They're not as good as the movies.

[2521] No. Salem's Lot.

[2522] 2023.

[2523] Oh, there's a new one that's working on.

[2524] Turn to Salem's Lot.

[2525] 807.

[2526] Oh, bro, we never get tired of vampires.

[2527] You know what I saw that's good?

[2528] The last voyage of the Demeter.

[2529] Demeter.

[2530] Yeah, it's a vampire movie.

[2531] It's about Dracula's coffin getting transported across the ocean on a boat.

[2532] Cool.

[2533] It's pretty fun.

[2534] Yeah.

[2535] Yeah, it's stupid, but it's fun.

[2536] It's a good vampire movie, a good CGI Dracula vampire movie.

[2537] Did you see the new Black Spider -Man?

[2538] Does it new Spider -Man?

[2539] What, I mean the second one?

[2540] You mean the cartoon?

[2541] Yeah.

[2542] No, I haven't seen it yet.

[2543] Oh my God, dude.

[2544] Is it awesome?

[2545] The first one was amazing.

[2546] It almost made me cry how great good it was.

[2547] Really?

[2548] It's way better.

[2549] I mean, I thought it was better than the first one.

[2550] It, and how it ends.

[2551] I haven't seen it.

[2552] Yeah, the first one was awesome because you can do shit with animation that you just can't do any other way.

[2553] It is, it is probably my favorite, those two movies are probably my two favorite, top favorite movies of all time, I think.

[2554] Well, it's such a good superhero movie because it's so comic book like.

[2555] Okay.

[2556] Salem's Lot, 2023, Warner Brothers has never announced another release date for the film.

[2557] It says August 24th, 2022, Warner Brothers announced that Salem's Lot was losing its April 21st, 2023 release date to Evil Dead Rise in a week that will have been exactly one year ago, and yet Warner Brothers has never announced another release date for the film.

[2558] I was trying to see where it was.

[2559] I don't think it came out.

[2560] Is there somebody that got canceled in the cast?

[2561] No, no idea.

[2562] It wasn't saying.

[2563] It was like a...

[2564] Maybe they wanted to reshoot shit.

[2565] Deiatric release during COVID, and I don't think.

[2566] Yeah, maybe it sucks.

[2567] Sometimes they'll get to the end of a film being made.

[2568] They're like, this movie sucks.

[2569] Like, we have to do something.

[2570] We're going to lose money even paying this out.

[2571] They've done that before, right?

[2572] Oh, yeah, tons of times.

[2573] Yeah, that's a, bro, imagine that business.

[2574] You're hoping these guys get this together and put together something you can watch.

[2575] No release.

[2576] No release.

[2577] Unless you've got a guy like James Cameron that always knocks it out of the park.

[2578] Yeah.

[2579] How much money are involved in those fucking movies.

[2580] movies.

[2581] That's kind of crazy that's not announced at all.

[2582] Yeah, I was, I forget what it was, but there was a comparison on that, that a bunch of these new horror movies they're making, the budgets aren't super high because there's not a lot of people that are, you don't have to pay a big cast, so they can make them for a lot less, and they're making fuckloads of money at the theater every weekend.

[2583] Right.

[2584] You go spend a hundred million on a big movie, and no one sees it.

[2585] If you do a movie, like a superhero movie, you can kind of have anybody play it, as As long as you have the real superhero, like if it's Spider -Man, you've got a new Spider -Man, you can get some good guy that no one's ever heard of, and you'll buy him a Spider -Man if he's good.

[2586] Yeah, I like the newest Spider -Man guy.

[2587] He's my favorite one.

[2588] They're all good, but it's crazy how many there have been.

[2589] Like when they have that one multiverse with Dr. Strange, you see all the Spider -Man's?

[2590] What's that explanation for this again?

[2591] But there's certain things that we will 100 % watch every time, and that's Spider -Man.

[2592] That's one of them.

[2593] The Hulk is another one.

[2594] every time they make a new Hulk movie we're in you know whether star wars Eric Bonna was the first one right yep Banna and then there was Banna and then there was Ed Norton he was the Hulk and then Mark Ruffalo I think Mark Ruffalo is the best one he's the one I most believe is a super genius that becomes psychotic when he gets mad you know yeah because he seems to have like he's you know like he's you know like he's got that genius thing down it's nice I buy it yeah but he's gonna quit now he's not gonna be the Hulk so they need a new Hulk who Tony you wouldn't like me when I'm angry I'm number one yeah who's gonna be the new Hulk but someone will do it and you'll buy into it 100 % as long as it's a good Hulk movie the good Hulk origin story you know what I'm amazed that they never did Anything with?

[2595] The Watchmen.

[2596] Yeah, they did, but they...

[2597] They did the TV show, but that wasn't...

[2598] The TV show was not the same.

[2599] Right.

[2600] They had that one fucking amazing movie.

[2601] Right.

[2602] It's one of the best superhero movies ever.

[2603] Anti -superhero movie.

[2604] They're all terrible.

[2605] Right.

[2606] And it's just like murder and chaos, and it's a crazy fucking movie, man. Like, you could have a really hard time making The Watchmen today.

[2607] I don't know.

[2608] Because, I mean, look at Deadpool.

[2609] Deadpool is pretty, like...

[2610] Not as much as the watchman.

[2611] The watchmen, they're all evil.

[2612] Like, everyone's a bad guy.

[2613] Like, a lot of people are, that they're superheroes are evil, and they kill a lot of people.

[2614] And then you see his big blue dick.

[2615] You see Dr. Manhattan's big blue dick.

[2616] You wouldn't be able to show a big blue dick today.

[2617] People get mad.

[2618] That was such a weird thing.

[2619] It was such a weird thing.

[2620] It's just super muscular, ripped guy who's floating around, with a glow around him.

[2621] with a giant hog.

[2622] Pull that up, Jamie.

[2623] Pull up Dr. Manhattan's giant dick.

[2624] Oh, what?

[2625] They put him a G -string now?

[2626] Come on.

[2627] That was part of the thing that he could just show you his dick and you still had to listen because he was Dr. Manhattan.

[2628] He was literally a god.

[2629] So that one, you see his hog.

[2630] Yeah.

[2631] It's kind of crazy, though, that we had decided that that's not good.

[2632] You couldn't have that.

[2633] Also kind of crazy that he had sexual relationships with human beings.

[2634] After that, right?

[2635] Mm -hmm.

[2636] Like, look at that one with his little bikini shorts on.

[2637] What are you just in the circle?

[2638] Why are you doing that?

[2639] Why are you hiding his cock?

[2640] You know what it is?

[2641] That's a wallpaper for your iPhone.

[2642] The problem with the one that they had that was on Amazon or whatever it was, was it the dude who played Dr. Manhattan, which is a regular dude.

[2643] He wasn't jacked enough.

[2644] Like, you have to be preposterous.

[2645] And you have to look like that guy with a suit on.

[2646] See, that's the guy that they had in the Amazon show.

[2647] Like, sorry, buddy.

[2648] I don't like his forehead.

[2649] Yeah, who cares?

[2650] He looks like a regular guy.

[2651] He looks like a guy who does CrossFit.

[2652] But then Dr. Manhattan looks like a god.

[2653] He looks a badass.

[2654] Yeah, I mean, that's not a human being.

[2655] Like, you can't have him in a t -shirt.

[2656] You know, the other guy looked like a human, like a normal human, who would be teaching at Soul Cycle.

[2657] It says right there, John Siena teasing his rumored role.

[2658] Yeah, bow up a little more.

[2659] Right there.

[2660] Right, see, right there.

[2661] I mean, this could have been for many time.

[2662] Yeah.

[2663] Yeah, this is supposed to participate.

[2664] Okay, but that makes sense.

[2665] He would be so good.

[2666] He's built like Dr. Manhattan.

[2667] Yeah, he'd be so good.

[2668] That's what Dr. Manhattan's supposed to look like.

[2669] Yeah.

[2670] That's why you can't have a regular guy.

[2671] And you also got to make him fucked up, too.

[2672] You've got to make his eyes glow.

[2673] You've got to make his skin glow.

[2674] He's got to look ridiculous.

[2675] Like, he's not supposed to be there.

[2676] Like, something from another realm.

[2677] You can't have a regular guy with a t -shirt on.

[2678] You're changing what it is.

[2679] Like you can't have the thing And now he's just got a little eczema But do you think they should bring the dick back Or have a fanny pack Let's go Let's fucking go Bring back Dr. Manhattan's cock If you can't handle it You shouldn't be watching Do you not know what the dick looks like?

[2680] You know what it looks like It's so funny though But why are we pretending You can't show that It's so weird We can't show that anymore Like we can't show it now But they wouldn't Here's the thing They did them Like isn't that weird that as time goes on, you would think people would relax more about that stuff.

[2681] Do you know, I was going to bring this up before we were talking about porn theaters.

[2682] Do you know that when Deep Throat came out, regular people went to go see it like it was a movie, including Johnny Carson.

[2683] Like Johnny Carson was in line talking about the movie and like they interviewed him outside of a theater.

[2684] Yeah.

[2685] Like it was the first time that they had made a pornogravat, pornographic movie and made it like a cinematic movie and trick people into going and watching this like it's a real movie.

[2686] Wow.

[2687] See if you can find that.

[2688] I would love to see what Johnny said about it, you know?

[2689] Oh, it was a wonderful film.

[2690] Weird, wacky, wild.

[2691] Edd jerked off right in front of me. The wiki here.

[2692] It says it was like a thing for a minute.

[2693] The upper middle class people were going to see it.

[2694] Yeah.

[2695] See, the film's popularity helped launch a brief period of upper middle class interests in explicit pornography, referred to by Ralph Blumenthal of the New York Times as porno -cheek.

[2696] Several mainstream celebrities admitted to have seen Deep Throat, including Martin Scorsese, Brian DePalma, Truman Capote, Jack Nicholson, and Johnny Carson, Spiro Agnew, Frank Sinatra, Philip Dresman, and Louis Durfurt.

[2697] I don't know who those folks are.

[2698] Barbara Walters mentions having seen the film in her autobiography, audition a member memoir, and Jimmy McMillan considered it to be his favorite film.

[2699] Who the fuck is that guy?

[2700] Who's that guy?

[2701] That's my favorite movie.

[2702] He's an American political...

[2703] Go back to what that said before?

[2704] Oh, American political activist and Vietnam War veteran.

[2705] He's the rent is too high guy.

[2706] He was a perennial candidate in New York City.

[2707] Oh, he's the rent is too high guy.

[2708] Oh, that guy's hilarious.

[2709] That guy was hilarious.

[2710] Okay.

[2711] He's just saying wild shit.

[2712] In 2006, a censored version of the film was released on DVD for fans of pop culture and those wishing to own a non -X -rated copy of the infamous movie.

[2713] Deep Throat was the first film to be inducted, rather, into the X -R -C -O Hall of Fame.

[2714] What did you scroll up there, Jamie?

[2715] The revenue.

[2716] Oh, estimates of the film's total revenues have varied widely.

[2717] Numbers as high as 600 million, equivalent to $4 .2 billion today have been successful.

[2718] cited, which would make deep throat one of the highest grossing films of all time, with an average ticket price of $5, which is $34 .98 today, box office takings of $600 million would imply 120 million admissions, an unrealistic figure.

[2719] Although subsequent sales of the films on home video certainly brought additional revenue, the FBI's estimates that the film produced an income of approximately a hundred million, which is 700 million today, may be closer to the truth.

[2720] Wow.

[2721] So it's where Skaizzi, they were doing research, though, right?

[2722] Oh, yeah, research.

[2723] It's just doing research.

[2724] Isn't that wild, though, that, like, that's how much culture can just shift and change on a whim?

[2725] People can just decide that, like, hardcore pornography, hey, let's go see a wacky film.

[2726] Let's go watch someone in soccer cock until they choke.

[2727] but they they it's always a thing though right why can we see real violence in a film but we can't handle real sex right you can see a film i mean how many major films how many tarentino films you see people get shot in the face some of them are horrific like uh hateful eight like there's there's some scenes in that movie like oh my god there's so many movies like that so many movies we can see horrific horrific violence but you can't have actual sex religion is that what it is 100 % I think people freak out about watching people fuck they freak out about watching someone fuck on screen horrors but it's just seeing actual intercourse even between two people that love each other nobody wants to see that you want it to like simulate it they're into bed together but for some reason there's sheet over them and they're kissing she's wrapping her arms around with everything's close up so you know what's going but you don't actually see it happening whereas we don't do that with violence like where a guy turns a corner he points the gun and the guy and you just see the gun go off and then the guy's dead and you know he's dead you don't have to see it no you see it you see the guy get shot and that interesting kind of weird I really think it's religion because like look at how many people you know don't have sex before marriage or you know and it's very few right but yet they're all those people that are for or against like that kind of stuff stuff, still have no problem with violence and war, you know?

[2728] Well, not necessarily, because there's a lot of atheists that are anti -pornography.

[2729] A lot of people think it exploits women, that there's, you know, some people that are making money off, and it's not the women, you take these people that are damaged and you, you know, expose them to the world in this weird, vulnerable way, and they don't know any better, and there's a lot of thoughts about that people have about pornography in general and people that are not religious.

[2730] So it's not that pornography is not controversial to, like, like, a lot of people.

[2731] It's just a weird thing where films are allowed to show certain things but not actual sex.

[2732] Right.

[2733] Like even if you just CGIed it, like what if you had these people and they wore green suits on and they, you would never show that.

[2734] Even if you know that that's fake sex because the actors were not forced to have sex with each other, they faked it and then they used CGI to make it look like it was intercourse and you could see penetration.

[2735] Everybody would like, what the fuck are you showing me?

[2736] It's weird.

[2737] Right.

[2738] Well, meanwhile, pornography is like this massive part of the Internet, like just a giant chunk of all the things that people are, all the Internet traffic is pornography.

[2739] Do you remember that movie Brown Bunny?

[2740] No. That was a Vincent Gallo movie where Vincent Gallo had an actual sex scene in the movie.

[2741] Yeah, what's that girl's name?

[2742] Chloe Schovengerie.

[2743] You know that girl?

[2744] Really good actress.

[2745] How old ago?

[2746] How long ago?

[2747] quite a while ago it was like uh can i guess 2002 what year was i'm looking at something i was looking at the history of obscenity rules where this came from uh people like when they were first starting to make film were we're trying to push the limits of it and this is one of the first ones according to the thing i was just reading that did it like 1897 i think this was made it's called carmen carmencita i think it's a very short film of a woman dancing but what's problem here is like you can see her ankles.

[2748] Oh wow.

[2749] And that's obscene apparently.

[2750] Wow, because she's spinning around.

[2751] She's wild.

[2752] And you can see her short, her dress is a little too short here.

[2753] That's hilarious.

[2754] It's like not touching the ground.

[2755] Now imagine showing them Lizzo they would go what happened?

[2756] Whap!

[2757] But yet, still sex in movies.

[2758] It's a no -no.

[2759] So what year was brown bunny?

[2760] He doesn't does he fuck this bunny?

[2761] No. I don't think you start off with a white bunny I don't remember I don't think I've saw the film 2003 I don't think I saw the film oh but I remember people went to see it and they were furious that there was like an actual blowjob scene oh okay yeah how'd they do that actual blow job like she actually stunt cock stunt mouth nope nope nope wow nope real actor real actor but isn't it kind of crazy that when you're seeing something like people do that people like that they do it all the time but and you know you could pretend to see it in a film like if she just started going down on them and you saw the back of her head and you just close up on his face that's happened a million times in movies nobody has a problem with that that's like make you slightly uncomfortable but at least you're not seeing it but to actually see it people are like this is crossing a line we're weird really weird we're so weird humans are so weird humans are so weird.

[2762] If you were observing us, if you're from another planet, you're observing us like, why are they so comfortable with violence and they're so weird about sex when it comes to like seeing it?

[2763] Well, it's also United States compared to other countries.

[2764] Right.

[2765] I mean, the other countries have tits on the news, you know?

[2766] Right.

[2767] England used always have like a page of their newspaper that was like girls were topless.

[2768] Yeah.

[2769] But that's still very different than putting in their films.

[2770] They've still had violent films.

[2771] Right.

[2772] But they don't have actual sex.

[2773] Like, in there wild?

[2774] Kind of weird.

[2775] Asia with pixelation, you know?

[2776] That's really weird.

[2777] That's really weird.

[2778] That's really weird.

[2779] Is that, what country is that?

[2780] Is it Japan?

[2781] Japan.

[2782] So, Japan, you can't see pubs and you can't see genitals.

[2783] You can't see genitals.

[2784] You can't see genitals, insertion.

[2785] Yeah, so everything's pixelated out.

[2786] Right.

[2787] That's why how tentacle porn came about because they could show insertion.

[2788] I think it's just penis.

[2789] I don't know.

[2790] Is that where tentacle points are?

[2791] That's what I was always told.

[2792] It might be an urban legend, but I was told.

[2793] Always told.

[2794] How many times you've been told this?

[2795] A lot of times.

[2796] Is that really what it is?

[2797] I think so.

[2798] I think it had something to do with the censorship there because it wasn't a penis inserting.

[2799] I think it's just inserting.

[2800] Do they still have those censorship laws in Japan?

[2801] I want to say yes.

[2802] Wow.

[2803] Because most of the porn doesn't come from Japan.

[2804] Isn't that crazy, though, that you say, like, people get too wild.

[2805] they see it actually go in there right you just show most of it don't show it going that'll be the downfall of society yeah pixelate out the dicks it's weird so strange it's so strange can i remember the first time i saw that i was like what is that why is there pixels i thought somebody just uploaded it and did it you know i didn't think i was just edited it like to make it like so you could put it on the internet what did you what did you do it's very weird Very strange.

[2806] But I guess you could fake it that way.

[2807] You know, that's like we were talking about, like, the two actors, if they wore green suits and you CGI'd, you could just fake the pixels.

[2808] You know, nobody else to know it's an actual dick.

[2809] She could just do a lot of that, and he's limp, and it's just pretend.

[2810] You know?

[2811] It's just what people allow and don't allow is so odd.

[2812] It's so odd.

[2813] you know in some country I mean just think about Sharia law right think about some countries where women have to be covered yeah and then in other countries nothing that's hot though I always you know that's something you put in the search once in a while in Pornhub you know like girls wearing like the things I think that's very dangerous to even admit you imagine to make those films is what is what Duncan Trussle was telling no yeah imagine making those films oh yeah risk yeah if you're a woman and you make one of those films i'd imagine like they are very mad at you yeah that's crazy yeah and that's also what happened in 2023 what a wild time to be alive sir scary times it's definitely not unexciting it's just so fraught with peril and terrible possibilities do you think about it all the time or no I do that's I mean like I said I've been really thinking about end of times all the time you know just I got a question for you protect family why don't you look into Jesus I already was through I went through that I grew up that way and I'm glad to be out of that it would be amazing if that was the answer yeah it would be amazing if the aliens came too that would be nice if you guys are going to come it's like you're really going to prevent the world from falling apart it's probably a good time.

[2814] No, it was a good time.

[2815] I don't know if you're, you want to see how we sort this out.

[2816] You know, what is this?

[2817] Here we go.

[2818] We'll end it with this.

[2819] The best part's the beginning, though, Jamie.

[2820] Oh, I was just sort of.

[2821] An outro?

[2822] Okay.

[2823] All right, let's wrap this up.

[2824] Kill Tony on YouTube every Monday.

[2825] You guys have two weeks off.

[2826] That's got to be nice.

[2827] Yes, taking a little break.

[2828] It's great.

[2829] It goes.

[2830] Don't you look into Jesus.

[2831] He got the answer.

[2832] Hold on.

[2833] It's good.

[2834] What?

[2835] Oh, my God.

[2836] Here we go.

[2837] Here we go.

[2838] Oh, my God.

[2839] There's a lot of covers of it.

[2840] That's good to know.

[2841] Give me the Janice Joplin.

[2842] Oh, my God, please.

[2843] Is that her?

[2844] Is that him?

[2845] That sounds like him.

[2846] Hold on.

[2847] That's him?

[2848] Yeah, that sounded like him.

[2849] Where's the Janus Joplin version?

[2850] It's just a pick.

[2851] They might have tricked me on the use.

[2852] Maybe she sings in it That seemed a little different It says Janice Joplin version Okay Keep it going Let's see A bunch of pictures of her That could just be what it is No that's him Yeah I almost think Keep it going though Maybe he's talking to her That's him You write it for her Maybe It says Larry Norman Yeah so I thought That's why I stopped If it seemed like it was on Let's see what goes on I feel like it was a message to Janice Joplin.

[2853] Totally, that's what it is, right?

[2854] Songs.

[2855] I mean, that's kind of the Janice Joplin story.

[2856] Yeah.

[2857] However, Janice songs were way better than that.

[2858] Yeah.

[2859] You know, that lady.

[2860] Okay, let's end with this.

[2861] Play, take a little piece of my heart.

[2862] This is to me, when you think about, like, all -time, soulful songs, like, that lady's voice was on.

[2863] It had so much.

[2864] depth and emotion and this is like a quintessential 1960s rock and roll song oh come on son why do people like her have to die so young they just need more of them you know there's not any but janice joplin's anymore it's like to come up with something like this it's like you have to live so hard you have to live so hard to be this lady well Just need to bring Narcan wherever you go.

[2865] All right, Brian Randbant.

[2866] I love you.

[2867] Love you too, buddy.

[2868] It was fun.

[2869] Definitely.
