Episode 9: The One with 9/11 and The Human Centipede · Josh and The Giant

• 0:18
  Yeah, Josh, you said that we got a review on what was it?
• 0:20
  Spotify. Spotify.
• 0:22
  Well, it's. Kind of a review, but they just
• 0:23
  left a comment. But they like made it known like
• 0:26
  this is a review and I was chuckling.
• 0:29
  Let me find it, Joe. I want to.
• 0:31
  I better chuckle. If you don't chuckle then yeah,
• 0:33
  you can kill me. The comment literally starts
• 0:36
  review. OK.
• 0:37
  That's how you know it's a review.
• 0:37
  They qualify. Yeah, this is a fresh podcast. 2
• 0:41
  Christians demonstrate what it means to depend 100% on the
• 0:46
  grace of God through Christ. What they say is crazy.
• 0:50
  OK, right. Yeah, it is hilarious.
• 0:54
  I look forward to their podcast upcoming episodes because they
• 0:57
  slam every time, fam. Does Josh sound like he smells
• 1:01
  like ketchup? Yes, OK.
• 1:04
  Does Ben talk too much about Israel?
• 1:06
  All right, yeah, I hate that this is such a thing now, but
• 1:09
  OK, go. Are we all just a bit less
• 1:11
  sanctified each time we listen? Worth it?
• 1:15
  Oh my gosh. And there's a guy named Matt
• 1:17
  too. Sick Matt is here.
• 1:19
  That's great. So.
• 1:20
  Thank you, Daniel. I.
• 1:20
  Think that's you? No, I'm not gonna lie, Daniel, I
• 1:24
  appreciate the effort. I appreciate that you put into
• 1:27
  it. I want to know if he if those
• 1:29
  are genuine thoughts or if he was trying to be a funny boy.
• 1:31
  Yeah, because there's also a part of me that's like, are we a
• 1:34
  bit less sanctified for listening to it?
• 1:37
  Sure. And I'm like, I don't like that.
• 1:39
  I feel like why don't we just assume we're just goof?
• 1:40
  We just assume. Yeah, anyway, we should explain
• 1:43
  why Sydney is here again. Again.
• 1:45
  Yes, Hey. So we brought her back.
• 1:47
  She did so well in the test reviews, in the focus groups
• 1:50
  that everyone was like, you need to bring her back.
• 1:52
  A. Lot of people saying get rid of
• 1:53
  us which I didn't appreciate. They wanted her to just have the
• 1:55
  podcast solo. Which like, we're not.
• 1:58
  Gonna do that cuz her name definitely do that.
• 2:00
  Nope, we can't. You can't say talk to her.
• 2:01
  Sydney. Sydney cut the cut.
• 2:03
  The But it wasn't gonna say Sydney and the Sydney you know
• 2:05
  you can't do. That.
• 2:06
  That's pretty dumb. Sydney Benson What?
• 2:08
  Did you say Sydney Benson cuz your wife?
• 2:10
  Have you changed your last name now?
• 2:11
  I have. Not, but publicly I'm.
• 2:14
  Oh. It's on the way.
• 2:16
  It's OK. You guys just got married like
• 2:17
  five years ago. Yeah.
• 2:18
  So that's fine. Well, she had cancer.
• 2:21
  All right. Yeah, she was a Virgo.
• 2:25
  No. We're virgins, but no, she's a
• 2:27
  cancer. So, but no, we should explain
• 2:31
  Sydney is here because Josh has hated the fact that he has grown
• 2:35
  his hair out this long and we need an excuse to use it for
• 2:38
  content that he is going to get a haircut.
• 2:41
  So across the span of this episode where we talk about, you
• 2:44
  know, church at the movies and and whatever else we decide to
• 2:46
  put in the title 911 our nation, one of our nation's greatest
• 2:50
  tragedies in the last 50 ish years.
• 2:52
  I. Could just in general, I don't
• 2:54
  have to say the last. That's true.
• 2:55
  Well, yeah, no fair. OK, that my bad, Hindenburg.
• 2:59
  While that's what. Boston Massacre.
• 3:01
  Was it Hindenburg here? Wasn't it?
• 3:03
  Was it Matt? Matt Hindenburg?
• 3:06
  So. Like at what point can I just?
• 3:08
  Like you can start cutting. So you said it's just going to
• 3:10
  start cutting Josh's hair. I'm just going.
• 3:12
  To. I've never done this before so.
• 3:14
  No, it's OK. Me neither.
• 3:15
  That's all right. We've never.
• 3:16
  We're only like 8 episodes into this.
• 3:18
  And then. Oh yeah, shut up.
• 3:22
  Really. Know what I really thought the
• 3:23
  Hindenburg was? Not just because of the Burke
• 3:25
  I'm. Just tickling your face.
• 3:30
  Bro you just got smacked with your own hair.
• 3:32
  Man. That's an ongoing little joke
• 3:33
  between my husband. And I'll say that, Huh.
• 3:35
  Have you ever been able to say that?
• 3:36
  Yeah, man, I had hair at one point.
• 3:38
  Really. Yeah.
• 3:39
  I'll smack you with something. So anyway, that's an ongoing
• 3:42
  joke between my wife and I anytime we have any like
• 3:45
  physical cash for like, have you ever been smacked with $42.00?
• 3:49
  And then she'll just she'll straight it all out and just
• 3:50
  BAM. And then and then I just hit,
• 3:53
  you know what I mean? Because I don't I don't stand
• 3:55
  for that. Oh my gosh, she's cutting such a
• 3:57
  big chunks off anyway, I know also whispering up.
• 4:03
  I'm still. Working it's too.
• 4:05
  It's perfect. This is my favorite thing ever.
• 4:08
  This is great. Oh my gosh.
• 4:10
  So Josh had the idea the other day because as I'm sure you guys
• 4:13
  are aware, and many people love a lot of churches do this thing
• 4:17
  called Church at the Movies. It's awesome, It's awesome.
• 4:20
  It's really cool. You go to church and you want to
• 4:22
  hear about Jesus, and we're talking about India every summer
• 4:24
  when the pastor knows, say. Attendance is down.
• 4:26
  No one's here. Yeah.
• 4:28
  What if I compared the Gospel of Jesus to?
• 4:30
  Spider Man to Spider Man. Yeah, you need a brand new day.
• 4:34
  Boom. So what we're going to do is,
• 4:36
  and we're not quite sure how many times we're going to do
• 4:38
  this, but back and forth, we're just going to throw a movie at
• 4:40
  the other person and they're going to have a couple seconds
• 4:43
  to think about it and then they're going to come up with a
• 4:45
  mini sermon, I guess. 2 absolute goofballs.
• 4:48
  Oh my gosh, you're that's insane already.
• 4:51
  It's very interesting to look at.
• 4:53
  What is it called? The squid cut?
• 4:55
  The octopus cut do you want to show?
• 4:57
  I have no idea what a squid cut is.
• 4:58
  Like party up top. Is that not just a ballot?
• 5:03
  No. That's Oh yeah, give me give me
• 5:04
  like a sick mullet, OK. Or does.
• 5:06
  He just give you like a Lord Farquaad.
• 5:08
  Yeah, thing. Yeah, Farquaad was pretty sick.
• 5:11
  Give me a Columbia necktie. Do you guys know what?
• 5:14
  That is, cut the cut. Right here.
• 5:16
  And then you pull the the tongue out.
• 5:17
  Oh, cool. Kill me.
• 5:19
  Kill me. Just kill me.
• 5:20
  Kill me. Wouldn't that be so funny?
• 5:21
  Real. Quick, turn to the left.
• 5:24
  Beautiful. And with that, Josh is gonna
• 5:27
  start. I'm gonna throw a movie title at
• 5:29
  him. Oh, Josh.
• 5:30
  Let me put on my pastor. Title.
• 5:31
  OK, Just think about it for a moment.
• 5:33
  If anyone's ever seen this film, it's genuinely a really good
• 5:36
  movie starring Samuel L Jackson. OK.
• 5:38
  And this movie is called Black Snake Mode.
• 5:42
  So Black Snake Mode is, I know it's a wild title.
• 5:46
  The movie is very wild, and I've never seen that movie, but you
• 5:49
  know what? And that's OK.
• 5:50
  That's OK. You're basing this off of the
• 5:51
  title alone and I'm watching the kids work in Josh's head and
• 5:56
  Sid. Sid is going to pause while
• 5:58
  Josh. Comes up with this black snake.
• 6:01
  Come on, go ahead. In the Garden of Eden, Satan
• 6:04
  approached Eve. Oh my gosh.
• 6:07
  In the form of a snake. Did he not, you know, get like
• 6:10
  some amens and stuff? Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen.
• 6:14
  Eve gave in talented Adam and that has been the crux of
• 6:19
  humanity. Satan in his army every day
• 6:22
  tempting us. Amen.
• 6:23
  Spiritual serpents, are they not spiritual snakes?
• 6:26
  But Church, I want to encourage you guys today because we want
• 6:31
  to make those snakes moan. We want those snakes to come at
• 6:34
  us with everything they've got. And then we want to show them
• 6:36
  the gospel of Jesus. We want to hit them with the 66
• 6:39
  books. Sorry, Catholics.
• 6:41
  And we want those snakes to turn around and get the heck out of
• 6:44
  Dodge. We want them to moan all the way
• 6:45
  back to their little snake hole, wherever they reside.
• 6:48
  Yeah, let's make those snakes moan.
• 6:50
  Yeah. Hey, make them black snakes
• 6:52
  moan. You did much better at that than
• 6:54
  I thought you would. It makes me very nervous for
• 6:56
  whatever you're going to say to me and what I have to do.
• 6:59
  Thanks. Yeah.
• 7:00
  So yeah, black. Snake moan.
• 7:02
  That was a wonderful Let those snakes moan.
• 7:03
  Yeah. I guess what does a snake
• 7:05
  moaning sound like? Have.
• 7:13
  You seen the video? Crazy, crazy.
• 7:20
  Yeah, so, Ben, I've got a movie for you.
• 7:23
  Yeah, man. Brokeback Mountain, Oh my pastor
• 7:28
  Dan, please take us to church. Church at the movies.
• 7:33
  Brokeback Mountain. Oh my goodness gracious,
• 7:37
  whenever Moses goes up on the mountain top to commune with our
• 7:41
  Almighty God, Yahweh, Jehovah, depending on who you ask, little
• 7:46
  known fact, God gives him the 10 commandments as we all know.
• 7:50
  We all know the 10 commandments. But what you do not know and
• 7:54
  many people don't know because Christians aren't in their word
• 7:56
  and that's what I want to talk about today.
• 7:57
  But real quick, and that's what we have a lot of the problems as
• 8:01
  as last week's pastor talked about, we need to make them
• 8:03
  snakes moan. Right.
• 8:04
  Amen. Amen.
• 8:06
  That's what we need to do in our work of spreading the gospel.
• 8:10
  Anywho, whenever Moses is up on the mountaintop, he drops the 10
• 8:15
  commandments. He drops the 10.
• 8:19
  Can I get an Amen? Amen.
• 8:21
  Oh, my gosh, if we haven't all been there ourselves, God gives
• 8:25
  us something incredible in our hands when we slip up and God
• 8:29
  properly chastises him. He breaks his back.
• 8:34
  He says, what have you done? Look at what you're doing.
• 8:37
  Amen. I will give you these
• 8:39
  commandments again. Make sure you hold on to them
• 8:42
  tightly. Yeah.
• 8:43
  And what does he do? He gives them them again.
• 8:45
  God uses his own fingertip and writes those 10 commandments.
• 8:49
  And he says, Moses, you hold on to these and is with those 10
• 8:53
  commandments, those two tablets that he goes back down the
• 8:56
  mountain. But on that mountain, his back
• 8:59
  was broke, because he was. Not obedient.
• 9:02
  Amen. Amen.
• 9:04
  All right. I didn't think I, I just hated
• 9:06
  that. Honestly, the inflection was
• 9:08
  that. Was really good.
• 9:09
  That was good. I was captivated.
• 9:11
  I I can't believe you didn't you know, elephant in the room.
• 9:14
  Just go with like homosexuality. Because well, OK, I had my mind
• 9:19
  went to two places. It was either that or I was
• 9:21
  like, well, Gogotha was a hill, but it was like it was big
• 9:25
  enough. To be a mountain.
• 9:26
  Spiritually, yeah. But then I was like, do I really
• 9:28
  wanna make Jesus? Yeah.
• 9:30
  Yeah, no, that's probably a good call.
• 9:32
  I heard a story the other day. I can't remember if it was
• 9:34
  Gyllenhaal or who was telling it, but the director.
• 9:37
  Not no, probably not the other. One, but you know, there are
• 9:41
  other people that helped make the movie.
• 9:42
  It wasn't just no. I think it was a two man
• 9:44
  operation. No, but I'm saying like there
• 9:45
  were like producers inside. No, I understand that.
• 9:47
  Don't be rude. No, OK.
• 9:48
  Don't be rude, OK? Sorry, Pastor.
• 9:50
  Pastor, I'm so sorry. Yeah, Yeah.
• 9:51
  Did Cindy give me a bad cut to punish me?
• 9:53
  Yeah. It's just so weird seeing you
• 9:55
  with short hair again. I literally haven't seen it in
• 9:57
  forever. Look this way.
• 9:59
  Look this way. I gave him a little rat.
• 10:00
  Tail, thank you. You look like you're on the run.
• 10:03
  So apparently the producer or director of that movie, The
• 10:07
  Asian guy at one point. What does that have to do with
• 10:10
  it? Because it's gonna make sense.
• 10:12
  It's gonna give context. I just didn't know.
• 10:13
  If you're barely at one point there was like a scene that was
• 10:15
  what kind of Asian do you think? Matt, no, no.
• 10:23
  I'm so glad you're not. Miked up right?
• 10:25
  Thank God. I hated that so much.
• 10:28
  I can't believe you would think of that word all on your own.
• 10:30
  Look, I don't know what kind of Asian go ahead, but apparently
• 10:33
  at one point there's a scene between, you know, Asian Lives
• 10:37
  Matter. But OK, I'm sure.
• 10:38
  Yes, they do. They absolutely do that.
• 10:40
  They just got perfectly right. And the director cuts and he
• 10:43
  goes, oh, I was so gay. Really that really actually have
• 10:48
  it. OK, Which I think is awesome
• 10:51
  that the the director is just like, hey, we're we're going for
• 10:53
  a gay film. And that was so gay.
• 10:55
  That was a typically Asian director, so gay so and.
• 11:00
  He sounded just like that. Yeah, probably.
• 11:02
  Like you're oh so gay. I'm sorry.
• 11:07
  I'm sorry, Sydney. I'm not even gonna look at you.
• 11:09
  All right? I'm so sorry, said that stare.
• 11:12
  Yep. This is what's happening.
• 11:13
  OK, I say. I say probably one more, right?
• 11:16
  You probably. I've got a couple written down
• 11:19
  for. You got a couple written down
• 11:20
  for me. Let's see.
• 11:23
  Oh, actually. OK, your next movie title is Bad
• 11:28
  Santa. Ding Dong.
• 11:31
  Ding Dong, Ding, Ding, Ding Dong.
• 11:35
  You don't know the church. Yes.
• 11:38
  We're coming up on holiday season, and I wanted to talk to
• 11:42
  you guys a little bit today about the types of Santas that
• 11:46
  we ourselves can be whenever Christmas time rolls around.
• 11:49
  See, I want to make the point clear that yes, just because
• 11:53
  you're feeling a little jolly and you're giving gifts and
• 11:57
  you're in the Christmas spirit. Yes, bastard it.
• 12:00
  Doesn't mean that you're in tune with the Holy Spirit.
• 12:02
  I call that bad Santa. OK, OK, because Santa Kris
• 12:08
  Kringle, we look back at the history Christian man, yes,
• 12:12
  glorifying God with the gifts. Amen and.
• 12:16
  So I want to ask you today, church, what is the reason for
• 12:18
  the season? What?
• 12:20
  What is the reason for your season?
• 12:24
  Beautiful. OK, you're going to be a bad
• 12:26
  Santa. You're going to go out and, and
• 12:27
  hey, you may, you may think that everything's great and you're
• 12:29
  having a good time, but if you're not glorifying and, and,
• 12:32
  and paying homage, tell them the birth of our Savior.
• 12:35
  Tell them. You're a bad Santa.
• 12:39
  Yes Pastor, very good. I could see the very moment that
• 12:43
  like I was like, OK, Josh could cut it off now and it'd be good.
• 12:46
  And then you were like, I got another win just right that you
• 12:49
  just oh, it's a. Sermon I can't get everybody out
• 12:51
  too early. Yeah, 100% yeah dude, but.
• 12:54
  It's also not it's not black church.
• 12:55
  I can't keep you here too long, you know.
• 12:58
  Go find the. Oh my gosh, I love this hair
• 13:06
  cutting bit. Anyway, this is great by bit.
• 13:09
  Also, it's just a haircut. It's a haircut guys.
• 13:11
  Joke's on you, the hair's coming back.
• 13:13
  Joke's on you, we're doing it here because we're actually
• 13:14
  broke. And yeah.
• 13:16
  Hey, Amen, brother Matt. Matt was just staring off, like
• 13:21
  just remembering the war. What would you rate comparing
• 13:27
  the two sermons he's done? Which one was better, Black
• 13:29
  Snake Moan or Bad Santa? Definitely Bad Santa.
• 13:32
  Bad Santa I would also say Bad Santa was probably.
• 13:34
  Shorter, but I think it was more punchier.
• 13:36
  I mean, it didn't help that I haven't seen black snake moan,
• 13:38
  so I'm just kind of moan is rough.
• 13:40
  Moan is rough. Moan.
• 13:41
  Especially whenever you're like, we're going to make those snakes
• 13:43
  moan. I was like, hey, thanks so much
• 13:47
  for listening to the pod. We really appreciate it.
• 13:50
  Hope you guys are enjoying it. And if you are consider going to
• 13:53
  joshandthegiant.com, checking out our merch and potentially
• 13:56
  becoming a member today, you can do so for as little as a dollar
• 14:00
  a month. And now back to the podcast.
• 14:03
  All right, I got another movie for you here.
• 14:06
  Which one do I want to do? Oh, man.
• 14:09
  Human Centipede Pastor. All right.
• 14:14
  Oh my God, do so much. Whenever we look to the book of
• 14:19
  Acts, we see a church that is unified, connected and
• 14:24
  beautiful, wonderful, incredible ways.
• 14:27
  The the scripture says that nobody owned any any anything
• 14:32
  themselves. Everything was given so that the
• 14:34
  body could live, so that the body could go on.
• 14:38
  But not everybody was obedient. Some people aren't connected to
• 14:43
  one another. One couple in particular,
• 14:46
  Ananias and Sapphira, they're connected to one another and
• 14:50
  they're not trying to serve the church.
• 14:52
  They're trying to serve each other because they are not
• 14:55
  focused on the body. What they are serving one
• 14:58
  another isn't good. It isn't proper and it's almost
• 15:03
  it's almost comparable to one could save feces out of one was
• 15:07
  going into the other and now that one was going back into the
• 15:10
  other, something improper. That's so good.
• 15:14
  And because of their unfaithfulness, what happens to
• 15:18
  them? They are brought before Peter
• 15:21
  and he says you would have sinned against the Holy Spirit.
• 15:25
  And just like in that horrible, secular, sinful movie where the
• 15:31
  people who are a part of this connection die in their filth,
• 15:35
  what happens to Ananiasis of fire whenever they walk out of
• 15:38
  the tent dead? Open their mouth.
• 15:42
  OK. Thank you.
• 15:43
  Very much thank you. I want to say you gave me very
• 15:48
  little audience interaction. I gave you a lot.
• 15:51
  I was going. It also didn't help that city
• 15:53
  just ran across with Eli and I was like, that kind of took my
• 15:57
  brain power for a second. Oh yeah, but you got no haircut
• 16:01
  during that time. I didn't, but that's OK, That's
• 16:03
  fine. That's fine.
• 16:03
  Things happen live. You know what?
• 16:05
  Maybe you'll just stay like this.
• 16:07
  I dig it. I think this is very.
• 16:09
  It's very. For one million members, I'll
• 16:11
  keep it like this for the rest of my life.
• 16:13
  We do want to say like straight up we said we would do this if
• 16:15
  we had a certain member count and we didn't.
• 16:19
  But we're close. No, no man, don't do that.
• 16:21
  Oh, is that too calm? I mean.

  Oh, dude, if I had anything near me to throw, man, No, you.

  sermons on the spot? Your father's been drinking,
• 16:39
  baby. Your father's been drinking.
• 16:42
  There was, there was liquid in that.
• 16:44
  Do you think it's easy just come up with sermons on the spot?
• 16:48
  You think it's easy to just be funny and engaging and
• 16:50
  entertaining? It's not.
• 16:52
  This is a bit that I'm doing as a character.
• 16:54
  I actually really appreciate all of our supporters and all of our
• 16:56
  members, and I hope that you guys continue to do so
• 16:59
  willingly. I don't want to force you, but

  joshandthegiant.com, it's a dollar a month.
• 17:04
  Yeah, anyway, we sent Josh and the Giant dot caution.
• 17:08
  Josh and the Giant everywhere. You know what I do sometimes
• 17:10
  whenever I post about us, So I just make the caption Josh and
• 17:13
  the Giant everywhere. And that feels so tough.
• 17:16
  Josh and the Giant everywhere. Just everywhere.
• 17:18
  J&GTIDOJ&G. Track and die.
• 17:22
  Amen. But yeah, man, look, we were
• 17:24
  going to do this at 250 members. We're not quite there.
• 17:28
  Or we might be. I don't know if it like, gross.
• 17:30
  Anyway, Yeah, but Josh was just getting tired of his hair and he
• 17:33
  wanted to get rid of it. That's right.
• 17:35
  And hey, here we are. Here we are.
• 17:36
  Yeah. People were telling me I started
• 17:38
  looking like Jared Leto. Like there was a point where
• 17:41
  people are like, yo, dude, the lettuce looks good.
• 17:43
  Yeah. I'm like, yeah, you know, we did
• 17:44
  get a couple. Of comments that they didn't say
• 17:46
  Jared Leto, they said a piece of shit, they said he looked.
• 17:49
  Like a piece of yeah, yeah. It's all those two.
• 17:51
  What? I don't think that'd do with the
• 17:52
  hair, So. But maybe it'll help.
• 17:53
  Maybe. Who knows.
• 17:54
  Anyway, it's all about optics. I wanna.
• 17:56
  I mean, you said you wanted to do a couple of more.
• 17:58
  Yeah. Do you want to do?
• 17:59
  I mean, yeah. Let's do one.
• 18:00
  Let's do one more. Let's see.
• 18:01
  I gave you black snake moan. I gave you bad Santa.
• 18:03
  I feel bad because Speaking of Santa, I feel bad because Josh
• 18:07
  has a list on his phone and I don't.
• 18:09
  But off the top of my head, man. Excuse me?
• 18:13
  One of us knows movies better than the other.
• 18:15
  I'll let you guys that's true. I mean figure that out.
• 18:17
  I mean, look, dude, one of us played sports and like, talk to
• 18:22
  girls and I watched movies and television.
• 18:24
  I was hit deep in professional wrestling for a long time.
• 18:27
  And Speaking of which, one of my favorite movies as a child.
• 18:32
  And I know it's not a good movie, but it's a fun movie.
• 18:35
  The Marine starring John Cena, certified hood, classic,
• 18:39
  certified banger. All right, we're going to have
• 18:41
  to pause. We're going to have to pause.
• 18:44
  Dude. I just heard Josh hiss up a
• 18:46
  storm and then he's walking back into the recording area.
• 18:50
  Do you have a chocolate bar? You have a Pokémon?
• 18:55
  Oh, man, I'm not beating the giant allegations.
• 18:57
  The Marine, The Marine starring John Cena.
• 18:59
  I believe he came out in approximately 2008.
• 19:01
  Used to be one of my. Favorite movies?
• 19:02
  I haven't seen that movie in forever.
• 19:04
  That's fine. OK.
• 19:06
  Yeah, yeah, everybody's, everybody's announced you know
• 19:11
  when you. Accept Christ as your Savior.
• 19:16
  Hold up real quick. I do have to pause, Sid.
• 19:17
  You cannot cut his hair while he's giving a sermon.
• 19:20
  Yeah. Oh, yeah, That's all right.
• 19:21
  No, but that's cool. She's making up for lost time.
• 19:23
  Yeah. Yeah, Yeah, it's fair.
• 19:24
  That's wonderful. OK, here we go.
• 19:25
  You know church when you accept Jesus as your Savior.
• 19:28
  Yes. You're not just making a
• 19:31
  decision on a whim. Yeah.
• 19:33
  You're joining the army. Yeah.
• 19:34
  Y'all remember the song? I'm in the Lord's Army.
• 19:38
  Remember that song? Yes, Sir.
• 19:40
  Yes, Sir. Yeah, yeah, it's real.
• 19:44
  It is real. It's real because when that is
• 19:46
  real, all of a sudden, oh, there you go again.
• 19:50
  Oh my goodness. When When it happens, yes,
• 19:59
  you're in the Lords Army. Yes, you are.
• 20:01
  And, and the war starts right then and there because when you
• 20:05
  accept Jesus as your savior, you were opening up the door to
• 20:08
  spiritual warfare. Satan all of a sudden is a
• 20:10
  sleeper agent, like like he's from Russia or the Middle East
• 20:13
  or something that's been planted inside your life.
• 20:16
  He's activated. Yes, pastor, I have a very good
• 20:20
  idea what the building looks like.
• 20:23
  And that is why a Semper Fi church, you're a Marine.
• 20:27
  From that moment on, you are a Marine.
• 20:29
  You're in the fight Jesus is giving you.
• 20:31
  He's giving you an M16 without 66 bullets.
• 20:39
  Yeah, Pastor knows a lot about metaphorically.
• 20:41
  Church of. Course, yeah.
• 20:44
  You're a Marine. Men, women.
• 20:46
  When you accept Christ, you're Marine.
• 20:47
  More Marine. Roll, Chris.
• 20:53
  All right, I'm not gonna lie. Might be the weakest 1.
• 20:57
  Yeah, I just, I really just don't remember any aspect to the
• 21:01
  movie, OK. But I'm just clear.
• 21:02
  When you say black sake mode, there's so much more in that
• 21:04
  title than just like, yeah, the Marine.
• 21:06
  I'm not gonna lie though, like I think you were on the exact
• 21:09
  right track. You did just keep saying Marine.
• 21:12
  I was making it land Marine. Land.
• 21:16
  I was trying to land and I couldn't freaking land.
• 21:17
  That's Harry, John Cena. Hey, sometimes.
• 21:20
  Hey, Speaking of flights, we'll talk about that in a little bit.
• 21:23
  You guys have seen the title? You know, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 21:26
  Sydney. Don't do that.
• 21:27
  Had some crazy thoughts on that. Anyway, go ahead.
• 21:30
  Last movie for you and then we'll go to 911.
• 21:32
  Yeah, 3:00 and 3:00. You know.
• 21:34
  Yeah. The Barbie movie.
• 21:39
  My goodness gracious, okay, for anybody who didn't hear that one
• 21:43
  of the dogs just almost threw up as soon as like, Friday.
• 21:46
  No, he's just looking at us. It's okay buddy.
• 21:49
  It's not okay, you see. That video going around of the
• 21:51
  dog in the tractor trailers, like the guy, the people who go
• 21:56
  across the state like 18 Wheelers, you know what I'm
• 22:00
  talking. About oh, like the the pasture
• 22:01
  like for cows and horses normally, but they just put a
• 22:03
  Wiener dog in there. No, I'm.
• 22:05
  Not he's talking about 18 Wheelers.
• 22:07
  Yeah, I'm talking. About like people who, Yeah,
• 22:08
  truck drivers. Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 22:09
  OK. I can't believe I don't.
• 22:10
  I just had a seizure. I couldn't think of just truck
• 22:12
  drivers. And you know how sometimes
• 22:13
  they'll bring their kid or whatever?
• 22:14
  Sure. There's a viral video going
• 22:16
  around of, of a very clearly older guy with like, his dog and
• 22:19
  the dog sitting in the front seat.
• 22:21
  The dog. You know what I'm talking about.
• 22:22
  You're a good girl. It's OK, It's not your fault
• 22:25
  because the dog, like, just threw up.
• 22:26
  Yeah. It's like I was just telling
• 22:28
  somebody in nine years you've never, never had an accident.
• 22:30
  And the dog's just like, he's like, it's OK, baby.
• 22:32
  See, you can't relate because our dogs just puke all the time
• 22:35
  and and. There's so much.
• 22:37
  And we've gone to the vet about it and they're like, it's just
• 22:41
  normal. Bad dogs.
• 22:43
  And you guys can't see, but they have Israel themed pillows puke
• 22:47
  all over them and I think that's gross.
• 22:50
  Well. I I know you think it's gross.
• 22:53
  Anywho, what's my movie? The Barbie movie Church, church,
• 22:58
  church, church. Let me tell you something about
• 23:00
  the modern day world. OK, the modern day world wants
• 23:03
  you comfortable. Modern day world wants you to
• 23:06
  think that things are just squeaky clean, that everything
• 23:10
  is just picture perfect. Well, now, when in reality, what
• 23:15
  it is giving you is something fake.
• 23:19
  It's giving you it's, it's fugazi, fugazi.
• 23:21
  It's it's, it's, it's up in the air.
• 23:23
  It's not real. Well, you don't have to make it
• 23:27
  very specific to the movie other pastor, any who, but that's what
• 23:32
  the world wants to give you. The world wants to give you
• 23:34
  something that looks maybe from far away like oh, is that right?
• 23:39
  Oh, is that good? Oh, let's make you just like the
• 23:42
  next person. Let's make Ken like Ken, but
• 23:44
  he's slightly different. Let's make Barbie like Barbie,
• 23:47
  but she's slightly different. When in reality, every single,
• 23:52
  every single one of you is made in the image of God.
• 23:56
  And real life is so much better than that squeaky clean
• 23:59
  nonsense. Step out from the plastic world.
• 24:04
  Step in to the created world of our Lord God Almighty.
• 24:09
  That is where real life happens. That's where salvation is found.
• 24:13
  And that is where beauty lies. We had a phrase break that was
• 24:24
  that was the best. 1 I actually got so excited.
• 24:27
  That was for the second. That's thanks, man.
• 24:28
  Yeah, thanks. Good job, pastor, really
• 24:30
  appreciate that. Yeah.
• 24:33
  Good, cool. Well, hey.
• 24:34
  Gray hair back. Here it actually would.
• 24:36
  Have been to remind me of. What you have Gray hairs?
• 24:38
  Gray hair dude. Couldn't relate.
• 24:40
  My my beard completely brownish red.
• 24:43
  Not a bit of white, not a bit of grey.
• 24:45
  Oh, good for you. Yeah, Type B1 of my favorite rap
• 24:49
  lines when I was still an active rapper.
• 24:52
  OK, Redhead with money called that Gingerbread.
• 24:56
  Oh my God. Could be something there?
• 24:58
  I hate that I like that. Could be.
• 24:59
  Something there, he said that and I was like, unfortunately a
• 25:03
  bar. Unfortunately, a bar.
• 25:05
  I was really hoping what you were going to say was something
• 25:07
  tragic. But what do you know?
• 25:10
  That's tragedy. But let me tell you something
• 25:11
  about tragic about 25 years ago almost to the wait, it is
• 25:17
  actually almost 25 years ago, right?
• 25:18
  It's 2000. It's 2026. 2125 years.
• 25:23
  Man, Sid was excited for this week's topic.
• 25:27
  Something happened in New York City.
• 25:29
  It didn't. Something that would go down in
• 25:31
  the history books. I'm an act of terror.
• 25:34
  This is such a switch. No Yankees lost in the big game.
• 25:37
  Let me. Tell you something.
• 25:38
  Yeah, I thought you were talking about the New York Yankees.
• 25:40
  Did they? What happened?
• 25:41
  They lost a baseball game. Yeah, legitimately, they lost a
• 25:45
  baseball game. Are.
• 25:46
  Are you right, sports boy, or are you just making that up?
• 25:48
  I'm sure they lost a baseball game.
• 25:50
  I don't like how much quieter you're getting in like reserved
• 25:52
  'cause you know that probably didn't happen.
• 25:54
  What's up guys? We're going to get right back to
• 25:56
  the podcast, but wanted to stop and say thank you.
• 25:58
  Thank you so much for watching or listening to Josh and the
• 26:01
  Giant. Wherever you do, If you haven't,
• 26:03
  take some time to go to joshandthegiant.com and support
• 26:06
  us. Consider becoming a member.
• 26:07
  Check out our merch. I definitely haven't pissed
• 26:09
  myself. Guys.
• 26:10
  Thank you again so much for supporting the pod.
• 26:12
  God bless. So yeah, look, we all know 9/11,
• 26:15
  all right? Plane hit the north tower, I
• 26:17
  believe it was the north and the South tower was the names of the
• 26:20
  towers. Plane hit one plane hit another
• 26:24
  not long after. They were actually up for a lot
• 26:26
  longer. So I did some research on this
• 26:28
  whole thing because we look we this episode is coming out on
• 26:31
  September 10th. We wanted to talk about 911 also
• 26:34
  because 911, frankly, online, whenever you're in the online
• 26:38
  space like we are, it's kind of memed to death.
• 26:41
  Yeah, there's a lot of memes about it, and we wanted to talk
• 26:43
  about it and not make fun of it, not make a meme out of it.
• 26:47
  Yeah. It is legitimately like a very
• 26:48
  big point, Sidney. Don't look at me like that
• 26:51
  because we're not making fun of it, OK?
• 26:53
  It's a very big point. Josh looks so different.
• 26:56
  I know it's crazy. I keep.
• 26:58
  Looking dude in the. Angle, I'm looking.
• 27:00
  You know what you look like? You look like an 80s
• 27:01
  stockbroker. There's something about the
• 27:04
  hair. There's something I don't know.
• 27:05
  Hi, Loki. We should keep like this link.
• 27:10
  That would kind of. Yeah, but here's.
• 27:14
  The thing? Well, don't you want to shave
• 27:15
  that or you want to leave it? No get it all 100% any who make
• 27:19
  me like. We're going to talk about 911.
• 27:21
  And we wanted to talk about it a bit because neither of us, and
• 27:24
  I'm going to say all of us, including Sydney, we all like
• 27:27
  knew kind of about 911. And we had some preconceived
• 27:30
  notions about potentially what may have happened on 9/11,
• 27:33
  calling a spade a spade for a long time.
• 27:35
  And I think this is very influenced by like, online
• 27:38
  culture. I was like, oh, 100 percent,
• 27:41
  911. Like I believed in certain
• 27:43
  conspiracies that leave this out or the other.
• 27:46
  It's been probably in total 7 or 8, almost at six or seven, 7 or
• 27:51
  8 hours watching and listening to various 9/11 conspiracy
• 27:56
  theory videos. And can I tell you guys
• 27:58
  something? What's up?
• 28:00
  Come to the conclusions coming out of the closet, guys.
• 28:03
  I am gay. I feel like this is gonna shock.
• 28:05
  Me. It's gonna.
• 28:05
  Shock you like crazy I think the real truth of the matter is it
• 28:10
  just kind of happened exactly like what we thought had
• 28:12
  happened yeah. And here's the thing, I can't
• 28:15
  believe you're. Saying that.
• 28:18
  Here's the thing, and we can talk about this for quite a
• 28:21
  while, but I have yet to find any kind of conspiracy theory
• 28:27
  that has anything substantial connected to it.
• 28:31
  Everything quite literally from the videos that I've seen.
• 28:33
  And I can't wait to see the people who disagree in the
• 28:35
  comments. Oh, for sure.
• 28:36
  But everything from the videos I've seen in the research I've
• 28:38
  done is, are claims made based on maybe one or two things.
• 28:43
  And for anybody who's a part of like knows the conspiracy theory
• 28:46
  space, that's what a lot of it is.
• 28:47
  It's like we're going to tie an idea.
• 28:49
  It's very ancient aliens where it's like we know this one thing
• 28:53
  happened, here's another thing we kind of think happened,
• 28:55
  here's how we can loop them together.
• 28:57
  But whenever you take a look at that, there's nothing really
• 29:00
  there. There's nothing of substance
• 29:01
  there. So I'm just going to go ahead
• 29:03
  and say it. Please I.
• 29:05
  Look at people. That view like there are things
• 29:08
  that I think maybe I have like a conspiracy outlook on that
• 29:11
  1100%. But the the squad that's like
• 29:13
  Bush did it inside job. It wasn't, you know, the, the Al
• 29:19
  Qaeda or whoever the group was. I, I lumped those people into
• 29:23
  the same group as moon landing deniers.
• 29:28
  Yeah, because I just. Feel like it's like.
• 29:31
  No. I'm not a moon.
• 29:32
  We can talk about that in another episode, but I believe
• 29:34
  we went to the moon for sure. So it's just.
• 29:35
  Like, I don't know, it's just one of those things where it's
• 29:38
  like, oh, I get it. It's like, oh, fun to like.
• 29:40
  It is funny talk. About.
• 29:41
  Like oh what if and like the hypotheticals.
• 29:43
  But yeah, I love what? If did you watch that What if
• 29:46
  Marvel? What if?
• 29:47
  Oh yeah. Absolute gas.
• 29:49
  Get out of the damn chair. Go sit down.
• 29:50
  We're going to talk about what if now 9 a couple of clips
• 29:53
  about. It on TikTok wasn't it where
• 29:55
  Ultron cut him? Cut him.
• 29:57
  That was the first season so that.
• 29:59
  Was the first OK that was 360. Second clips of whatever go back
• 30:02
  to 911 anyway. Yeah, yeah.
• 30:04
  It's just like, yeah. You're because you did some
• 30:06
  research too. You watch some stuff too,
• 30:08
  because frankly, I, I called Josh like earlier this week and
• 30:11
  I was like, dude, because I was really hoping to dive in and
• 30:13
  just get to some meaty conspiracy theory stuff.
• 30:16
  And then you peel it back and there's, it's just a paper
• 30:19
  tiger. It's nothing.
• 30:20
  Yeah. Like you peel it back and you're
• 30:21
  like, oh, it's like, Oh, yeah, this.
• 30:23
  Very bad group of people had a very meticulous plan that was
• 30:27
  look executed and we can get into the specifics.
• 30:29
  A bit. But what it really is is there's
• 30:32
  a bad group of people who Osama bin Laden based the attacks on
• 30:36
  9/11. He worked with a, I mean a bunch
• 30:38
  of people. But there was, I was telling
• 30:40
  Matt earlier, it's kind of a Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak
• 30:42
  situation. Osama bin Laden very much was
• 30:44
  the Steve Jobs of what happened on 9/11.
• 30:47
  There's another guy who we actually have and we've had
• 30:50
  we've had detained for like years and years.
• 30:53
  And he is still potentially on trial for the whole 911
• 30:57
  situation. Really.
• 30:59
  Yes. I forget the guy's name.
• 31:00
  It's I would always still waterboarding him.
• 31:02
  He's literally. Been.
• 31:03
  Waterboarded like over 140 times.
• 31:05
  Documentary, dude. I'm sure they did.
• 31:07
  I'm sure they did. But anyway, he based the attacks
• 31:10
  on another plane attack that had happened to either 1 tower or
• 31:14
  another pair of towers in either like Turkey or, or one of those,
• 31:19
  one of those but a, a Middle Eastern country.
• 31:22
  And he was like, I want to do this to America.
• 31:24
  And there had already been some attacks on America.
• 31:26
  There was the carpet bombing of the OR not carpet bombing, the
• 31:30
  car bombing, I believe of the World Trade Center and sometime
• 31:33
  in the 80s. And he he just wanted to make a
• 31:36
  statement to America legitimately.
• 31:37
  And what we also had, and This is why I kind of described it to
• 31:40
  you guys earlier, is kind of a powder cake situation.
• 31:42
  And I was telling Matt more about this.
• 31:44
  The world or not the World Trade.
• 31:46
  Wait, yeah. The World Trade Centres, they
• 31:48
  were not built very well. They were constructed well.
• 31:52
  They were old, but they were also what were called like, have
• 31:55
  now been called like skeleton buildings.
• 31:58
  Like they were not constructed well.
• 32:00
  And the architect that constructed them was literally a
• 32:03
  guy afraid of heights. And that's part of the reason
• 32:05
  why, really, yes, why the windows were the way that they
• 32:08
  were on the World Trade Centers and why certain other aspects of
• 32:11
  the architecture were the way that they were.
• 32:14
  And. Yeah.
• 32:15
  And it's like there, there's all these other things.
• 32:17
  So there's like this rising discontent from al al Qaeda and
• 32:22
  and other people like that in the Middle East who want to make
• 32:24
  a statement. There are these two giant
• 32:26
  buildings that are like all, all known throughout the world as
• 32:30
  like American icons, which I guess like growing up being born
• 32:34
  in 97, like, I just don't remember it a lot.
• 32:37
  I don't remember. But like the twin towers were
• 32:39
  everywhere. They were all yeah, OK, well,
• 32:42
  it's not my fault even more in the 80s, but yeah.
• 32:45
  So the twin towers were everywhere.
• 32:46
  So like, that makes a Dang statement whenever you literally
• 32:50
  are a terrorist organization, you're like, they want to attack
• 32:52
  America. And I mean, it wasn't obviously
• 32:53
  just the twin towers they attacked for the Pentagon they
• 32:55
  were going to. Yeah.
• 32:58
  Flight 93, they think it was either going to go, I think it
• 33:00
  was Flight 93, I think they confirmed it was going to be the
• 33:02
  capital. Because they got they one of the
• 33:04
  guys that they captured was like, yeah, the capital was the
• 33:07
  the 4th target before. OK, well, the.
• 33:10
  The thing that I had seen, I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure that's
• 33:12
  right. But the thing that I had seen
• 33:13
  said that it was either going to be the capital or the White
• 33:16
  House. And it was like one of those two
• 33:18
  things. But it's like they had these big
• 33:21
  iconographic like landmarks that they wanted to hit.
• 33:24
  And then I think they just did it.
• 33:26
  They just put together a plan that actually worked.
• 33:29
  And there was a lot of Intel that the US government received
• 33:32
  that. And I don't think in a
• 33:34
  conspiratorial way, but they just didn't treat it with the
• 33:38
  gravity that it should have been treated.
• 33:40
  And what we also had, and this is also I think a lot of people
• 33:43
  have known for a long time that George W Bush was like kind of a
• 33:46
  goof a little bit and just kind of a puppet.
• 33:48
  And I think part of that puppetry is that there were
• 33:52
  other people in the government who wanted a war.
• 33:54
  They wanted something to really to sink their.
• 33:57
  Yes, to sink their teeth into this happened.
• 34:00
  And they were kind of like, perfect.
• 34:02
  Great. Yeah.
• 34:03
  Let's go into a place that has no real connection to the Dang.
• 34:06
  Anyway, that's no. Yeah, that was.
• 34:08
  But see, here's the thing. And that's.
• 34:09
  What pisses me off sometimes about the conspiracy theorist
• 34:11
  people, it's like there there is sketchy stuff happening, but
• 34:15
  whenever you go, oh man, I think it was a a planned demolition
• 34:19
  because of this and or the other.
• 34:20
  And it's like, no see, but it's not that stuff.
• 34:23
  It's the weird stuff like Donald Rumsfeld, the day before 9/11,
• 34:26
  he comes out and he goes, by the way, Pentagon can't find like $2
• 34:29
  trillion and then but I think. Like on your point about like
• 34:33
  inside job controlled demolition because who's jet fuel, who's go
• 34:37
  ahead it's? Kind of like one of those deals.
• 34:40
  And it's the same thing that I say for like, the people that
• 34:42
  say we faked the moon landing and that it was all, like,
• 34:44
  filmed, right? Correct.
• 34:45
  Do you know how many people would have?
• 34:48
  What'd you say? Just go ahead.
• 34:50
  Do. You know how many people would
• 34:52
  have to be involved in an operation like that to make it
• 34:56
  work? And then do you know how?
• 34:58
  Many people then would have to either keep their mouth shut or
• 35:02
  you'd have to kill like a lot of people would all of a sudden.
• 35:05
  Here's the. Thing and I don't want to.
• 35:06
  I don't want to push with a. Gun immediately, but I do.
• 35:08
  Want to say I think that that also happens like I think that
• 35:11
  there are also just things that are held and kept secret and
• 35:15
  like they don't come out till later.
• 35:16
  I mean we live we live in America where things like the
• 35:18
  Tuskegee experiment went on where they were like, what if we
• 35:21
  just like poison black people and everybody was just like,
• 35:23
  anyway, I don't know about this. So it's like stuff happens, but
• 35:27
  it does eventually smell like this, like we're we're.
• 35:30
  Like, oh, we're going there. Does there does get to a?
• 35:32
  Point where there is a scale at which where it's like, but at
• 35:35
  the same time, I I don't want to I don't want to say that 911
• 35:40
  wasn't a conspiracy or or or wasn't like an inside job
• 35:44
  because it would it would be too big and then it would have
• 35:47
  gotten out. I think 911 is not an was not an
• 35:49
  inside job because everything points to it whenever you
• 35:53
  actually get down to the brass tacks of it.
• 35:54
  Not because I think that there can be large scale like inside
• 35:59
  job conspiracy things, but I just don't think 911 is one of
• 36:03
  them. Like, and it yeah, like speaking
• 36:07
  specifically about like the, the, the demolition aspect and
• 36:10
  the falling buildings. Why for so long?
• 36:13
  And again, going back to being influenced by like online
• 36:16
  culture, I was like, you know what?
• 36:18
  Because it had been so long since I even watched it because
• 36:20
  who wants to sit there? And that's another thing.
• 36:22
  And I don't want to do. Hey newsflash, 911 is a big
• 36:25
  bummer whenever you're just like watch the 100.
• 36:28
  What was it, 102, 102 minutes that changed America?
• 36:32
  Yeah. And that was, it was like a
• 36:34
  documentary basically of all, like the footage rounded up from
• 36:37
  the event. And it was like, Oh my God.
• 36:40
  I think I same boat as you. Like, I went into it.
• 36:42
  I almost was kind of like, man, I'm not really a conspiracy
• 36:45
  theorist on this. Like I have a couple things that
• 36:47
  I think or a little conspiracy ish, but I was kind of like,
• 36:49
  man, I want something to convince me because it's going
• 36:52
  to make great pod or whatever. And so I I go in, I listen to a
• 36:55
  couple of podcasts and then I watch 102 minutes of change of
• 36:58
  America. And I was just like floored to
• 37:01
  the point of like, I don't want to, I don't want to do anything.
• 37:04
  Well dude, I'm watching. This thing where the guy's
• 37:05
  playing a bunch of footage of like the people that jumped and
• 37:10
  they have so much footage of like whenever the whenever the
• 37:13
  firemen are all all speaking, I forget they're in the lobby of
• 37:15
  some building and they take a second because they think it's
• 37:17
  debris falling. And then you literally see in
• 37:20
  real time the realization on their faces, like, oh, no,
• 37:22
  that's bodies. Yeah.
• 37:23
  Those are people who like don't want to burn to death.
• 37:25
  They don't want to, they don't want smoke inhalation to be the
• 37:27
  way that by the way comedy podcast.
• 37:29
  But and then but but they're like, you know what, I guess
• 37:35
  I'll just go. Yeah, it is Wing, and that is
• 37:39
  literally dude. That was something.
• 37:41
  I think I text you. I was like, man, 911 is so sad
• 37:45
  because it's very this will be a weird thing to equate it to, but
• 37:49
  in a very similar way, the the Charlie Kirk, the Charlie Kirk
• 37:53
  situation that has been meme to death.
• 37:56
  And then you really lose in all the Internet culture of like a
• 37:59
  guy was shot in the neck. Well, I think it's lost his.
• 38:02
  Life. You know, the same thing is
• 38:04
  about 911 because every there's so many memes, there's so many
• 38:06
  jokes and it desensitizes you to the fact that like I think Matt
• 38:10
  looked it up earlier something how many so many people died on
• 38:13
  9/11 and you just kind of you forget about that whenever you
• 38:18
  weren't reminded. Did she just jank?
• 38:20
  No, no, no. I.
• 38:20
  Looked back. Oh OK.
• 38:21
  I was like. Wow, she doesn't be good boy
• 38:23
  often, but yeah, man, like, all right, 2900 people died in 9/11.
• 38:33
  Goodness gracious. Damn, that was bigger.
• 38:36
  Than that, yeah. Lords.
• 38:38
  Would you raise your eyebrows at me?
• 38:41
  Oh, that we're like we're. Convincing her can you sit still
• 38:44
  so. I can just my head debombing too
• 38:46
  much. Now I want to say on if there
• 38:49
  was any like sort of like not triumphant.
• 38:54
  Triumphant's not the right word. Yeah, but Todd Beamer from 911,
• 38:59
  the one of the few like, I don't know if you would call it a
• 39:01
  bright spot, but just like a hero.
• 39:03
  Was he the. Red bandana the.
• 39:06
  Gentleman on the 4th flight on the Oh oh.
• 39:09
  Oh, I think was he the guy that said let's roll?
• 39:11
  Yeah. All right, guys.
• 39:12
  Let's roll. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 39:13
  Again, to be clear, I say hero, obviously.
• 39:15
  First responders. Well, yeah, but you don't have
• 39:17
  to. Yes, OK, but Todd Beamer, the
• 39:20
  guy? On the 4th flight, who like
• 39:21
  literally led the people storming the cockpit.
• 39:24
  Last words were Are you ready? Are you guys ready?
• 39:26
  OK, let's roll. Yeah.
• 39:28
  He just goes in there and they they run the playground.
• 39:30
  So freaking like badass. So badass.
• 39:34
  And it's like, and that's why I asked about the, the red Bandana
• 39:37
  guy because there's a story of a man and forgive me because I
• 39:39
  didn't, I didn't take notes. I should have the guy that was
• 39:41
  like the guy who was on yes, who could have escaped.
• 39:44
  And they believe that his final position was either in the lobby
• 39:50
  of either the north or South tower or right outside.
• 39:53
  But whenever the building collapsed, he just, he just
• 39:55
  died. He got lost in the in the
• 39:57
  rubble, but no, he helped. I think it's like confirmed
• 40:00
  something like maybe 20 something.
• 40:03
  Like like survive and it's like heartbreaking because whenever
• 40:07
  they go back to his apartment and his family does to collect
• 40:11
  his belongings, there's an FDNY application filled out and he
• 40:17
  was going to take it. Dude, it was.
• 40:20
  And every time I heard about that, I heard about that two or
• 40:22
  three times across multiple videos.
• 40:23
  It's like it is a genuinely, what a beautiful thing to hear
• 40:27
  about somebody who could have escaped, who could have just ran
• 40:31
  and just gone, but they were like, no, there are people who
• 40:34
  are going to die and they get and that's like, see the reason?
• 40:38
  Why I'm a big America is the best.
• 40:41
  Yeah, I'm sorry, had to. I'm a big.
• 40:45
  America's the best. Could you leave him like that?
• 40:47
  Just for a minute. Yeah, Perfect.
• 40:49
  Thank you. Let me tell you something.
• 40:51
  Let's talk about 911. Here's.
• 40:56
  I'm a big like. America's the best.
• 40:58
  Yeah. OK, And when you when you look
• 41:01
  at a tragedy like this, you can often tell a lot about how not
• 41:06
  the government responds because I feel like the government's
• 41:08
  just like the bureaucracy and it's like the garbage how the
• 41:10
  people respond. And I I admire so much and I'm
• 41:15
  proud to be an American because of how people like red Bandana
• 41:18
  guy, how how they responded and how it was like even in the
• 41:23
  midst of this, the ashes like I will rise up.
• 41:26
  I will help my fellow Steve Buscemi.
• 41:29
  Steve Buscemi, who was even at the time like a world renowned
• 41:32
  actor, but he had been a volunteer fireman.
• 41:34
  He hears about like on the day he lives in New York and he goes
• 41:39
  in and there's multiple photos of him 'cause he was also very
• 41:42
  intentional with the with the journalist and like the not
• 41:44
  paparazzi, but like the journalist.
• 41:46
  He was like, I don't want pictures of me taken and him
• 41:48
  like covering his face. Bless you, Sidney.
• 41:50
  Sidney walked away and she was sneezing.
• 41:51
  Just so you guys know, just to make make that abundantly clear.
• 41:54
  No, but he was making a very clear somebody who is a like a
• 41:57
  list actor doesn't have to be rushing into like burning
• 42:00
  buildings and going through rubble.
• 42:02
  He did it for like days. And it's like it's those kinds
• 42:06
  of stories, just like red Bandana guy, just like the guy
• 42:08
  Todd Beamer, Todd Beamer and like man.
• 42:11
  And and to go back to the more conspiracy minded part, flight
• 42:14
  flight 9493. Is that the one that got ran?
• 42:17
  Into the. 93 So that was another one that like I had heard things
• 42:21
  for years. It's like, well, why they why
• 42:23
  didn't they find more pieces of the plane?
• 42:24
  And it's like, well, they did. They found a bunch of the pieces
• 42:27
  of plane. Part of the reason they also it
• 42:28
  was difficult and took longer to find pieces of the plane and why
• 42:32
  a lot of the human remains were just like scattered.
• 42:35
  And it is again, harrowing to hear some of the like first
• 42:38
  responders talking about just finding pieces of flesh and
• 42:41
  other things like that scattered around is because whenever you
• 42:44
  see plane landings in like fields and other situations, it
• 42:49
  is often being piloted by a pilot who is trying to land
• 42:52
  safely, not terrorists who just had the Dang whatever busted
• 42:57
  through and they literally went straight down into the it's
• 43:01
  insane man. But it's like the knowing that
• 43:05
  like potentially at the very least, because I'm sure those
• 43:07
  people, they, they wanted to like save everybody on board and
• 43:11
  maybe potentially we could storm or whatever, but knowing that
• 43:13
  like this may still cost us our lives, but we're going to do it
• 43:16
  anywhere. We're not going to like
• 43:17
  sacrifice. Yeah, dude, crazy.
• 43:19
  It's crazy. It's incredibly crazy American.
• 43:22
  That's, that's one of the other things that I was like reminded
• 43:24
  of and like this whole thing kind of served as a good, a good
• 43:29
  reminder of like, as as bizarre as it sounds, some of the
• 43:32
  beautiful moments that came out of like such a terrible thing,
• 43:35
  the moment of George Bush. Throwing out the first pitch at
• 43:39
  the the first Yankee home game. Oh yeah, and it's a freaking
• 43:42
  darts for a strike. Like right down the middle dude
• 43:46
  I. Remember being a Galliant, I
• 43:47
  remember being a kid and seeing Rudy Giuliani on SNL and coming
• 43:51
  out because I forgot that like a bunch of comedic things and a
• 43:54
  bunch of people like took like weeks off.
• 43:56
  I think it was like like me and my dad, we were big fans of like
• 43:58
  Daily Show with Jon Stewart and he's all in like New York.
• 44:01
  He. Took like 2 weeks.
• 44:02
  Off and I remember being a kid and seeing Rudy Giuliani on the
• 44:06
  first SNL back and he's there, dude.
• 44:09
  He's there like surrounded by firefighters and just talking
• 44:12
  about what had happened. And he was like, but we'd like
• 44:14
  we deserve to laugh again and we need to laugh again and we need.
• 44:18
  And it's like, man, it's those moments that just like you were
• 44:22
  talking about, and I don't know, like regardless of even being an
• 44:25
  American, but just being a human being and really seeing how
• 44:28
  resilient people can be, like in the face of like this horrific
• 44:31
  thing just happened. Everybody, especially in New
• 44:34
  York at that time had 911 stories lost Somebody knew
• 44:37
  somebody. And also just bizarre stories of
• 44:40
  like people who almost made it to the to the Dang towers.
• 44:43
  There was a woman who Seth Rogen.
• 44:46
  Well, you Seth Rogen. Seth Rogen, Rogan it.
• 44:50
  Wasn't it was Cesic? Farler, I can't tell This is
• 44:52
  better. Not well.
• 44:54
  Yeah, he was. Him and Mark Wahlberg were going
• 44:56
  to be either on the same flight or different flight.
• 44:59
  Mark Wahlberg, too. Yeah.
• 44:59
  Yeah. And Cesic Farley.
• 45:00
  Was actually like hungover 'cause he got so drunk the
• 45:02
  previous night. But no, there was a woman who
• 45:04
  was just who worked in one of the towers.
• 45:07
  She was late to work because she almost got hit by Gwyneth
• 45:10
  Paltrow's like truck. No, she was, she was like
• 45:13
  speeding down whatever Rd. she almost got hit, it caused her to
• 45:15
  like take a step back or whatever.
• 45:17
  She was late to the train and she was, I believe literally one
• 45:20
  minute late to work. So good job.
• 45:23
  Walks up and as. She's walking up.
• 45:25
  She either saw the plane hit the tower or the tower fall.
• 45:29
  Oh my gosh. So it's like.
• 45:30
  Bizarre. Things like that.
• 45:31
  But it's like, yeah, in in like researching these horrific
• 45:34
  events, you can in some odd way be reminded of like what it
• 45:37
  means to be like human and in the face of adversity macro.
• 45:40
  Unity like even when like even now, like, oh, I can find
• 45:43
  pockets of people that agree with me and we're unified and
• 45:45
  we're but but like just a moment like that, reminding everyone of
• 45:48
  like we are all like this group of people, we're all American.
• 45:52
  It's just and also how important it.
• 45:53
  Is to like actually take a second and like research
• 45:55
  something and look into something because we were
• 45:57
  talking about it and going back to the Donald Rumsfeld thing.
• 46:00
  There's also, I don't know how this will sound to some people.
• 46:03
  Sometimes there are like actually genuine coincidences
• 46:06
  and it's like I do like looking at it and watching the footage
• 46:10
  and remembering, I guess, or maybe being informed for the
• 46:13
  first time. I thought the whole thing was
• 46:15
  OK. The plane just comes right down
• 46:16
  and hits the Pentagon, but for some reason there's no wings and
• 46:19
  the hole looks like very oh, it's just the, the main part of
• 46:22
  the. But before that the plane had
• 46:24
  come down and it like smashed into a generator and it hit and
• 46:28
  multiple other things. So of course the wings were
• 46:30
  probably already like barely holding on.
• 46:32
  And it's like, I don't know, dude.
• 46:35
  And it hits the exact point in the Pentagon.
• 46:37
  And this is one of those weird things that is at the I think
• 46:41
  more than likely a coincidence. But it's very weird that where
• 46:43
  it hit, I think was the like audit center of the Pentagon,
• 46:47
  the Dick. So it's like where we can kind
• 46:49
  of get into some. Things that are a bit like
• 46:51
  bizarre, a bit fishy. I have to say.
• 46:54
  It was not on my bingo card that you guys were actually seeing
• 46:57
  this conversation. Seriously.
• 46:59
  Oh my gosh. Yeah, it's.
• 47:00
  Still like. Oh, you thought we were gonna.
• 47:01
  Joke. Yeah, well, here's the thing.
• 47:04
  I'm. Bracing myself up, you know?
• 47:06
  Do you know why? Do you know why we took this
• 47:08
  conversation seriously? Because I'm proud.
• 47:11
  To be an American. Where at least I know I'm free,
• 47:16
  but are you being? Serious, I'm very proud to be.
• 47:20
  An American. Hey, man, I just have a good
• 47:21
  singing voice. So yeah, get out the straight.
• 47:23
  Razor and cut that guy's hair off.
• 47:25
  But but no man. Yeah, like there are some also
• 47:28
  at the same time very weird things, but I think it was.
• 47:32
  Like I, I can't tell if it was just people who somehow had an
• 47:37
  inside track or like they hear something or somebody that tells
• 47:40
  them something. But for example, there was, I
• 47:44
  forget where the professor was located, but people basically
• 47:46
  tracked down and found very unusual stock trading activity
• 47:51
  on like all the airlines. Yep, in the days leading up.
• 47:54
  Yep. I don't think that's a
• 47:55
  coincidence. Now, to that point, someone in
• 47:58
  al Qaeda could have just been like, hey, you know, we know
• 48:01
  what we're about to do. Let's make some those.
• 48:03
  Organizations get funding in some way, 100%.
• 48:06
  Well, another very bizarre thing about insider trading, that's
• 48:10
  what when I used to play. GTA, which GTA?
• 48:13
  The new GTA is coming out. I'm kind of stoked about that.
• 48:15
  Yeah. When I used to play GTA, shout
• 48:17
  out John Rush GTA Church. Anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 48:21
  I would invest in the GTA stock market and shorts, the airline
• 48:27
  stocks, and then I would go and just to the airport and blow up
• 48:29
  all the airplanes. And do you remember the money?
• 48:31
  Hack in GTA in GTA5, what was the money hack?
• 48:34
  There was like a very famous one that I could never I never did
• 48:36
  it or I never did it right. But there's at one point in the
• 48:39
  game where you go basically, like, I don't know exactly what
• 48:42
  words we can say on YouTube where you go take out a certain
• 48:45
  number of people. Yeah.
• 48:46
  It's in connection to something. And you're meant to.
• 48:49
  You potentially can go buy a lot of certain shares and then you
• 48:52
  sell them as soon as you take out those people.
• 48:53
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I probably should have done
• 48:55
  that. I'll do.
• 48:55
  This too quickly. Have you ever seen the movie
• 48:57
  Jarhead? It's been forever, but you're
• 49:00
  reminding me of Jarhead. Because there's just a whole
• 49:02
  point. Sorry, sorry.
• 49:04
  I just remember in that movie, I don't know if I've seen it since
• 49:06
  I was an adult. I just remember at one point
• 49:09
  some, like his instructor or Sergeant or whatever, just
• 49:11
  bashes his head against the wall.
• 49:13
  Yeah, like, hard. Because he's like, not standing
• 49:15
  in line. Is he about like basic?
• 49:17
  Training in the Marines, like having friends that have gone
• 49:20
  through it. Yeah.
• 49:21
  It sounds like the movies just really.
• 49:23
  Or maybe it was worse back in the day.
• 49:25
  Maybe. But like all my friends that
• 49:26
  went through the Marines were like, yeah, it was kind of, I
• 49:30
  understand the idea of like a. Lot of those movies being
• 49:31
  propaganda. So many of them scared the
• 49:34
  absolute poop out of me. Yes.
• 49:35
  And I was like, I don't ever want to do this ever.
• 49:38
  Now, to be fair, I was always kind of a fat kid, so it wasn't
• 49:39
  likely I was going to do it. And I was flat footed and I wore
• 49:42
  glasses, but I was like, this doesn't look like fun.
• 49:45
  This doesn't look. It wasn't like a lot of the the
• 49:47
  propaganda whenever we were in high school and it was like, you
• 49:49
  want a Hummer and $50,000? And I was like, hey.
• 49:52
  That sounds kind of sick. Yeah.
• 49:54
  And then like, you travel the world.
• 49:55
  Did. Did.
• 49:57
  Recruitment people come to your high school and do like the pull
• 49:59
  up our thing, yes, they're like. Who wants a shirt?
• 50:01
  They want the. 1. Where you see it's because they.
• 50:03
  Know nice you. Know it's like.
• 50:06
  You're I don't know. I feel like some bugs.
• 50:08
  Know when they're stepping on a Venus flying trap and they're
• 50:10
  like oh, I still got to get some goodies out of this.
• 50:12
  Sure, it's like you go up to the pull up bar and you're like, I
• 50:14
  know what they're here for, but I still want to just I want that
• 50:17
  shirt. I don't want.
• 50:18
  To get I. Also kind of just want to like
• 50:19
  show. Off yeah definitely knew those
• 50:21
  kids definitely knew those kids but yeah man there was like one
• 50:24
  of the really bizarre things I don't know if you saw this in in
• 50:26
  your research. I didn't know that for the first
• 50:29
  like I think it was like 2 weeks or like a month after 911 Osama
• 50:32
  bin Laden came out and he was like, we didn't, I didn't do
• 50:35
  this really. Yeah, he completely, he was
• 50:37
  like, no, had no part in this. And then it wasn't until I
• 50:40
  really, it was like 2 weeks or a month later he was like, yeah,
• 50:42
  did that. And it's like, OK, like that's
• 50:45
  a, that's a bizarre thing. Like because you would think,
• 50:48
  it's not like like we were going to or we were potentially, we
• 50:52
  were trying to find him anyway to take him out.
• 50:55
  So it's not like that would change 2 weeks later.
• 50:57
  So you'll think it like ended. Up being worse than they like
• 51:00
  even intended for it to be. What ended up being?
• 51:03
  Worse, kind of like the. Like for al Qaeda, like it
• 51:07
  exceeded their expectations, you're saying?
• 51:09
  Yeah, like. There was a moment.
• 51:13
  Of like, oh, shoot. Oopsie.
• 51:15
  Maybe, but I would have to imagine.
• 51:18
  They were probably just intent on destroying as much as
• 51:20
  possible. Well, yeah, especially because
• 51:22
  give. Them a chance to get.
• 51:24
  Away. I don't know, because I don't
• 51:26
  know at any point if we really had a good well, I don't know.
• 51:31
  I don't know if at any point we had a really good track on Osama
• 51:33
  bin Laden until we did, and then we took him out.
• 51:36
  Yeah. You know, because.
• 51:37
  I think other. Countries hit him, so maybe he
• 51:40
  said it wasn't him he'd be more willing to like well, and I
• 51:43
  forgot. There was 1 country in
• 51:44
  particular that like very clearly was like in working with
• 51:49
  him and they blatantly hit him. Do you know, do you know what
• 51:52
  I'm talking about? It was like I.
• 51:53
  Don't know, I don't understand. It was somebody, one of the
• 51:56
  stands. Yeah, it was somebody who like.
• 51:58
  Eventually came out and they're like we kind of fumble the ball
• 52:01
  with this and it's like this. This was clearly like a high
• 52:04
  level thing that you guys knew you had Osama, the number one
• 52:08
  guy in the world, and you just didn't let anybody know.
• 52:10
  Israel. Yeah, Israel thing is weird.
• 52:14
  Did you see some stuff about that?
• 52:15
  No. What's the Israel thing?
• 52:16
  OK, so. There's.
• 52:17
  A couple of things and I know a lot about this.
• 52:18
  I think this is another situation.
• 52:20
  Well, I love them just kidding just kidding, just kidding.
• 52:22
  I don't anyway by the I love the land, not the people, but Oh my
• 52:27
  goodness gracious, I know. Can I like?
• 52:29
  That is beautiful. That's incredible.
• 52:31
  You look so handsome. So yeah, sorry you.
• 52:34
  Do look like? You're dude, I'll just push that
• 52:37
  at the end of the. Episode you just learned your
• 52:39
  high school. Sweetheart is pregnant and
• 52:40
  you're like, I gotta get, that's actually a part of Black Snake
• 52:42
  Mountain. Is it really?
• 52:43
  You should. Watch that movie.
• 52:44
  That's a really. Good movie, it's brutal.
• 52:46
  Look how much hair is behind. You like, it's like shaving a
• 52:50
  dog, dude, there's a. Lot of hair.
• 52:53
  Why do you keep comparing me? To a dog.
• 52:55
  Because you're a good boy. I mean, I can tell you why.
• 52:57
  But you know, bleeps and such. Yeah, the Israel stuff is weird.
• 53:02
  So like, it's a very famous story now that on the day of
• 53:05
  911, there was, well, First off, there was a van, there was a
• 53:08
  white van that the FBI was trying to find, I forget the the
• 53:12
  name that was on the side, but they were trying to find it.
• 53:14
  And it was driven by, I believe, 4 Israeli gentlemen who were
• 53:19
  seen like proudly celebrating in the streets, like in New York,
• 53:24
  that whenever 911 bless you had happened and whenever the cops
• 53:29
  eventually found them, because they found them, I think like
• 53:31
  that day, they very bluntly to the cops, they were like, we're
• 53:34
  not your issue. We're not your enemy.
• 53:37
  And from some of the other things that I saw, Netanyahu
• 53:40
  also had some very weird comments around the same time.
• 53:42
  Of course, he did. Where?
• 53:43
  He was like. And it was a it was a hidden
• 53:46
  camera thing that was recorded whenever he was like hanging out
• 53:49
  amongst friends. But he talks very oddly about
• 53:53
  how America can be easily controlled.
• 53:57
  America can be very easily. I, I forget the exact
• 54:01
  terminology he uses, but like, they can be swayed very easily.
• 54:04
  And like what it means to do that, I, I don't know.
• 54:09
  And I think part of it also, and I think either the four Israeli
• 54:13
  men or Netanyahu or somebody in in Israel was trying to connect
• 54:19
  it to Palestine, trying to say that it was Palestinians who had
• 54:23
  who had like, taken part in the attacks.
• 54:26
  And that's part of the reason why they were so happy.
• 54:27
  But was because they thought that they had done this and then
• 54:31
  America would step into their conflict with Palestine.
• 54:34
  Yeah. And then.
• 54:35
  Yeah. And we had nothing to do with
• 54:38
  that. So thankfully, that never
• 54:39
  happened. Yeah.
• 54:40
  Right. What?
• 54:41
  What? Yeah.
• 54:42
  So, yeah. Like, I think 911 is a very good
• 54:45
  example of there can be two things true at the same time.
• 54:50
  There can be a genuine thing that can seem like a conspiracy,
• 54:54
  but it isn't really. I mean, it's a conspiracy
• 54:56
  amongst the terrorists, but it's not a conspiracy necessarily
• 54:59
  within the federal government. But there can also be people who
• 55:02
  take advantage of situations, people who don't do things
• 55:06
  properly as they should, who don't vet things properly, who
• 55:10
  don't do proper background checks and all of that, and then
• 55:13
  take advantage of the horrific events takes.
• 55:16
  Me off what grinds? My gear, Go ahead, hold up,
• 55:19
  said. Why go ahead?
• 55:19
  We know the response of. The US, like, what was that
• 55:23
  like? Even the movie, I know it's I'm
• 55:24
  quoting a movie, but the report or whatever, with all of the
• 55:28
  things that we did after 9/11 and trying to like interrogate
• 55:33
  people and how we like, it's really illegal.
• 55:37
  You ever seen those photos? Some of the photos from like the
• 55:39
  black sites no like. Dude.
• 55:41
  Men in like black bags over their head standing up on like a
• 55:46
  standing up on like a, a, a bucket with like dogs
• 55:49
  surrounding them, barking at them.
• 55:51
  And like all the bizarre ways that we tried to like elicit
• 55:54
  information out of people. Again, the guy who I can't name
• 55:57
  or think of, but the guy who we still have in custody, like it
• 56:01
  is documented he has been waterboarded like 140 times.
• 56:04
  We had him for years before he even admitted to being like the
• 56:08
  Co conspirator of 911 but I think that big.
• 56:11
  Cover up, because it was a big cover up for the US It's like
• 56:14
  one of the biggest ones that come out, I think makes people
• 56:18
  more like question 911. Well, again, yeah.
• 56:21
  It's like because the government does do sketchy stuff and we
• 56:24
  know they do sketchy stuff all the time, and that's what makes
• 56:27
  it so crummy whenever it's like, I just don't think this was one
• 56:30
  of them. I think there were certain
• 56:32
  things that they should have taken more seriously.
• 56:34
  I think the, I think the the people who created the Dang twin
• 56:38
  towers, which funnily enough, Donald Trump, like years later,
• 56:43
  essentially wanted to rebuild the twin towers exactly how they
• 56:47
  had been made, feels like a bad idea.
• 56:48
  Yeah. And that's that's a big part of
• 56:50
  the reason. Why it got it didn't?
• 56:52
  Get passed no but what I was saying.
• 56:54
  Earlier You know what pisses me off?
• 56:55
  Tell me what grandson Warriors doesn't do their job?
• 56:58
  Yes. There were a lot of people.
• 57:01
  In the events leading up to 911, that had a job to do.
• 57:03
  And you know what? They didn't do their job.
• 57:06
  Yeah, yeah. Very true.
• 57:08
  Insure Hindsight 20. 20 and you can look back like it was so
• 57:10
  obvious, you know, but it is kind of like one of those things
• 57:13
  and maybe it's this is just where I guess it's just the
• 57:16
  government being the government. It's like, man, this is your job
• 57:19
  and this would have never happened.
• 57:21
  Yeah, but you know, that's just a humble soldiers opinion.
• 57:24
  So yeah, a real Marine. Of the Lord is it stolen valor
• 57:27
  for? Me to look like this, like I
• 57:29
  won't say anything bad but like I think you should start
• 57:30
  wearing. Like army fatigues.
• 57:32
  I feel like that's. Definitely stolen valor.
• 57:34
  You just like the way you look the worst.
• 57:36
  Job in the world, I have to say no, no, like not.
• 57:38
  Terrible. It's not great.
• 57:40
  Well, also. Are you doing a different number
• 57:43
  on the top? Than the sides.
• 57:44
  Yeah, OK. I was going to say, if you're
• 57:45
  not then you're just giving it a buzz cut, but yes.
• 57:48
  I look like Sid off a Toy Story, yes.
• 57:52
  Yeah, you do actually. Don't I?
• 57:56
  Dang it now she's not. You got AV, you got a, you got
• 57:58
  a, you got a wide V going on. He's got AI got.
• 58:02
  A conehead? Oh, you got a conehead?
• 58:04
  I got a conehead. And then I I got a big knot
• 58:08
  right here when I was trying to ramp a bicycle off of like a 56
• 58:13
  foot ledge and I just went face first into concrete.
• 58:16
  Oh my. Gosh, And then I got hit with a.
• 58:18
  Baseball bat right here. I'm proud because I'm somehow
• 58:23
  he's a guy still. Kicking and he's like, yeah,
• 58:25
  I've been through some things. It's it's it's a tiny.
• 58:28
  Noggin. All right, well, I didn't know
• 58:32
  it was a. Competition, I thought, we wish
• 58:34
  but. It's not even that bad because
• 58:35
  women can take pain better racing.
• 58:37
  Oh, that's true. So whatever.
• 58:38
  Like that's like one guy concussion.
• 58:40
  Yeah, that's very true actually. That's why I can do the math.
• 58:43
  That's boy math right there. That's boy math, brother.
• 58:47
  Yeah, love that anyways. Thoughts on 9/11?
• 58:52
  Horrific tragedy that a lot of people took advantage of and
• 58:56
  could have been avoided if other people did their jobs properly.
• 59:00
  Yeah, at the same time, I don't I can't imagine how much
• 59:05
  information, not to play devil's advocate for the government.
• 59:09
  I can't imagine how much information, how many threats,
• 59:12
  how how many things come through, whether it be the CIA
• 59:15
  or the FBI's desk or one big desk every day.
• 59:19
  Well, there was also people like a lot of the conspiracy theories
• 59:22
  are like, well, listen to what this guy said in 1990.
• 59:25
  And it's like it's all also very vague and general clock is.
• 59:29
  Right. The guys of America will be
• 59:31
  attacked. It's like.
• 59:33
  OK, now whenever it's. Like when people like, are like,
• 59:36
  oh, the stock market's going to crash and they just say it every
• 59:38
  month. And then finally it happens and
• 59:40
  it's like, Congrats, let's get there.
• 59:43
  Oh. My gosh.
• 59:44
  Oh no. Wrap it up.
• 59:44
  Wrap. It up, wrap it up shopper
• 59:46
  circling our position right now. That's actually a little.
• 59:49
  It's a little eerie. They're coming to get you, John.
• 59:53
  No, it's John Cena. He's going to come say hi.
• 59:55
  Yeah, if we beat the hell out of.
• 59:56
  US. Honestly, this one, he's just
• 59:58
  beating it up. I don't have a.
• 1:00:01
  I mean, I can like try to build you up, but yeah.
• 1:00:04
  Getting a summer? Cut right is perfect.
• 1:00:07
  Man, like a newbie in the local Reich.
• 1:00:12
  Yes, Sergeant. No.
• 1:00:20
  That's no in German, no. Shout out to our German
• 1:00:24
  listeners and viewers if. You're a German listening right
• 1:00:27
  now or maybe just in Germany. Apologize.
• 1:00:30
  No, I was going to say let us know.
• 1:00:31
  That's kind of sick. That is kind of sick.
• 1:00:33
  Yeah, Yeah. But yeah, I mean, final thoughts
• 1:00:36
  is just I don't see, I haven't seen enough.
• 1:00:38
  And maybe I just haven't been on enough, you know, backwater
• 1:00:43
  Internet websites are not in the the dark net enough to see
• 1:00:47
  anything that actually is substantive.
• 1:00:50
  Anything. Yeah, canaling anything that is
• 1:00:53
  that like, makes sense. That stands to muster.
• 1:00:56
  I think 911 just happened because again, a lot of people
• 1:00:59
  weren't doing their jobs and a lot of, and an actual cabal plan
• 1:01:04
  to do a terrorist act and it came to fruition and thankfully
• 1:01:07
  they didn't going back to kind of what city was saying.
• 1:01:10
  I think part of the reason they probably weren't surprised at
• 1:01:13
  the damage is because they wanted a lot more to be done.
• 1:01:16
  And one of the very quickly, one of the kind of scary things was
• 1:01:21
  one of the flights, the, the, the pilots for the flight like
• 1:01:24
  barely passed his like flight test And like it's known.
• 1:01:28
  And the, his, his flight instructor said, yeah, he would
• 1:01:32
  get it, you know, get it pretty well up in the air.
• 1:01:34
  And then once he had it up in the air, he just didn't really
• 1:01:36
  care to land it. And it's like, jeez, dude.
• 1:01:40
  Like that's yeah, that's that's very scary.
• 1:01:43
  I went to fly instructor. Because they all went to the
• 1:01:45
  same flight school, surely that flight instructor has.
• 1:01:48
  I think only one of them went to.
• 1:01:49
  Flight school well maybe, maybe there was one from each group
• 1:01:53
  maybe, but I from what I was like watching and listening to
• 1:01:56
  there was like 1 main guy who was like in.
• 1:01:58
  Florida. Well, if there was more than one
• 1:02:00
  of them, I want that flight instructor to write a book.
• 1:02:02
  I bet he has. Like, that's another thing.
• 1:02:04
  A lot of it was like cash then, huh?
• 1:02:06
  Why'd you think it was a he? Do you think that women can be
• 1:02:08
  pilots? Well, no, probably technically.
• 1:02:12
  Getting laid again? What?
• 1:02:14
  Go ahead. What?
• 1:02:16
  Did you say I was talking about? Women, women's rights.
• 1:02:19
  Shout out to baby number. Three.
• 1:02:21
  Yeah, well. Oh.
• 1:02:22
  Snap. Are we doing 2?
• 1:02:23
  I wanted that one with like 5 in it.
• 1:02:25
  It was just looking at 3 funny. Yeah, so do you.
• 1:02:28
  Want to explain to them what we're doing now?
• 1:02:29
  Oh wait, hold up. What are your final thoughts on
• 1:02:31
  9/11? Sorry, tragedy.
• 1:02:33
  Yeah, I think the research that we did just even more cemented
• 1:02:37
  like, yeah, not a conspiracy stuff in there that's like,
• 1:02:43
  definitely sketchy at best. But like, I feel like it all has
• 1:02:46
  explanation. Weird art exhibits.
• 1:02:48
  That happened in the the towers. Like did you see the thing about
• 1:02:53
  there were some some students who got permission from the twin
• 1:02:57
  towers to go up to I believe one of the towers and only light up
• 1:03:00
  certain windows. And this is another thing that
• 1:03:03
  people point to and they do the ominous music, but to only light
• 1:03:06
  up certain windows. And it said some like vague
• 1:03:08
  thing and then that area was very close to where one of the
• 1:03:12
  planes hit, as if you can't. Tell which towers are the twin
• 1:03:16
  towers though. And also it's like.
• 1:03:18
  They were kind of up towards the top.
• 1:03:20
  So the whole thing was supposed to be like an art exhibit to
• 1:03:22
  kind of like it, like whatever. And it's like, well, they would
• 1:03:25
  probably put that up there anyway because also, you know,
• 1:03:27
  who's just. Artistic is Frick, New York.
• 1:03:30
  True, everyone in the New York things are.
• 1:03:33
  Oh my gosh. Yeah.
• 1:03:33
  What'd you say again? What?
• 1:03:36
  New Yorkers. Yeah, it's like, wow, that's
• 1:03:38
  another thing is like. Weird things happen, weird
• 1:03:41
  coincidences happen in life, genuinely, and then also just
• 1:03:45
  terrible things happen. But yeah, man, So what we're.
• 1:03:47
  Going to do now, gang is we're going to RIP a pack, a couple of
• 1:03:51
  packs, but I'm going to have Ben RIP them and I'm just going to
• 1:03:55
  tell a funny story. So there's kind of like mental
• 1:03:57
  stimulation. I think that's what the kids
• 1:04:00
  call it. Like you can visually watch.
• 1:04:03
  Yeah, you can like. You can watch.
• 1:04:07
  Ben, open up, you know, cards and such, and I'll tell you a
• 1:04:09
  fun little story. And it's kind of like the best
• 1:04:12
  of both worlds, right? So this is the story of the time
• 1:04:15
  that I pretended to be blind in Las Vegas for my buddy Mickey's
• 1:04:20
  22nd birthday. Okay.
• 1:04:22
  Flew down to LA because his college was in LA.
• 1:04:25
  It's spring break. We're Spring Breakers.
• 1:04:27
  I'm 22. Just to set the record straight,
• 1:04:30
  he's 22. Who would you get?
• 1:04:34
  See, I need you to pay attention, Josh.
• 1:04:35
  I'm sorry I got whatever this full art was.
• 1:04:37
  I cannot read. That.
• 1:04:39
  Language. It is in Japanese.
• 1:04:42
  So this was our kind of cheapest pack whenever we went to the
• 1:04:44
  card shop the other day. Part of the reason I think
• 1:04:46
  because it's in Japanese. Also because it's only like 5
• 1:04:49
  cards. But we pulled a full art, full
• 1:04:50
  art out of that. That's pretty soon, so I'm gonna
• 1:04:52
  pick this. Up real quick, sorry to
• 1:04:53
  interrupt your story. The number of packs we've ripped
• 1:04:57
  that were full price and whatever, and then we get one,
• 1:04:59
  five cars, whatever, and it's a freaking full art.
• 1:05:02
  All right, continue with your physical story.
• 1:05:04
  The plan was. The plan was we're going to go
• 1:05:07
  out to Vegas to celebrate Mickey's 22nd birthday, drive
• 1:05:11
  out there and just have a good night, OK?
• 1:05:13
  And I want everyone to keep in mind this is when I was in
• 1:05:15
  college, so I wasn't making very good decisions.
• 1:05:17
  I think in general he was gay so.
• 1:05:19
  No, that's not. True.
• 1:05:20
  I'm sorry, that's not true. Oh, for you guys that don't
• 1:05:22
  know, like Mickey, the guy that I'm talking about, he's the dude
• 1:05:24
  that was in the jump shot in music video, the one that Ben
• 1:05:27
  calls my handler. So I guess you can connect those
• 1:05:30
  dots. So we go out to Vegas.
• 1:05:34
  We get settled to call it a Chinese finger trap.
• 1:05:36
  Right. I'm like, gosh, it's called.
• 1:05:38
  They call it docking. I'm just.
• 1:05:42
  Going to do this. Josh has excessive foreskin and
• 1:05:45
  that's what he used. What are we talking about?
• 1:05:54
  Vegas? We're talking about Vegas.
• 1:05:56
  It's normal. So we are.
• 1:05:58
  To Vegas, we get settled in because we were broke college
• 1:06:00
  students, we're staying at a motel AIDS that's like right off
• 1:06:03
  the strip and we were broke. We were in college.
• 1:06:08
  I flew spirit to get there and I tell Mickey, hey, it's your
• 1:06:13
  birthday let me go get some brews for the boys.
• 1:06:15
  Let me go get some brewskies. OK, let me get some brewskies.
• 1:06:19
  So I, I go to the liquor stove to get some brewskies for the
• 1:06:22
  boys to have a good night responsibly.
• 1:06:24
  And I realized I don't have my ID now as a lot of you guys see,
• 1:06:30
  I still get carded. You just, you know, I'm, I'm
• 1:06:33
  aging super well right now, especially with my recent
• 1:06:35
  haircut. At this time I could not pass
• 1:06:37
  for a 21 year old, right? So go in no.
• 1:06:40
  ID the guy's like I can't sell you these course lights and I
• 1:06:43
  was like, well this is depressing.
• 1:06:45
  I realized I left my ID in LA right so.
• 1:06:48
  I go back to the. Room, it's night.
• 1:06:50
  Nightfall is upon us, and Mickey's looking at me like
• 1:06:53
  you're ruining my birthday. Actually, he told me that
• 1:06:55
  because we couldn't get into any casino, we couldn't go anywhere
• 1:06:59
  in Vegas because I couldn't prove to anyone I was 21 years
• 1:07:01
  old. Yeah, OK.
• 1:07:03
  So you had to make sure you had a good birthday?
• 1:07:06
  Yeah, I'm. Yeah.
• 1:07:08
  I'm sorry you're such. Wait.
• 1:07:11
  You're such a sensitive dude. I thought with your little
• 1:07:14
  jarhead haircut you'd be a lot tougher.
• 1:07:16
  No. And be like, no, dude, no.
• 1:07:18
  That means that I wear my. Heart on my sleeve, yeah, is.
• 1:07:22
  That what you call the excess is that.
• 1:07:26
  A. Is that a bottom or ceiling?
• 1:07:27
  Is that a what? Yeah.
• 1:07:29
  The bug. Oh well.
• 1:07:31
  So anyways, in the most non. Oh my gosh.
• 1:07:33
  Dude, yeah, please tell your story.
• 1:07:39
  Whatever work babe. And a girl.
• 1:07:41
  I make one. Joke about your husband's
• 1:07:43
  snakes. Oh my God, please.
• 1:07:52
  Tell me how you made his birthday.
• 1:07:53
  Good, good. So we're back at.
• 1:07:56
  The hotel room, which had two beds by the way, just want to be
• 1:08:00
  super clear there. And then?
• 1:08:03
  Mickey's pissed at me because he's like, you're running my
• 1:08:04
  birthday. We can't go gamble.
• 1:08:05
  We can't do anything. Please.
• 1:08:07
  Yeah. And so I realize.
• 1:08:09
  Man, what is one way? I'm just trying to think how can
• 1:08:12
  I get into a casino? Oh, OK, you know, yes, that's
• 1:08:15
  what I'm thinking. I'm thinking about how can.
• 1:08:17
  We get into a casino so that we can gamble and lose all our
• 1:08:19
  money and have fun, and then it hits me.
• 1:08:23
  You know who doesn't have driver's licenses?
• 1:08:27
  Blind people. How do blind people get carded?
• 1:08:33
  OK, right? Is that true it?
• 1:08:36
  Certainly rang true for me at the ripe age of 22 in Las Vegas.
• 1:08:39
  Makes sense so far it's more. Uncomfortable carding.
• 1:08:43
  I think it's also kind of like. The wheelchair index, like, hey,
• 1:08:45
  I want to be nice to this person.
• 1:08:46
  They're blind. So you know what I did?
• 1:08:47
  Blind index. I threw on my sunglasses.
• 1:08:49
  Yeah, from the beach. And we walk into, I think it was
• 1:08:52
  The MGM, the same, like, area where we had been turned away
• 1:08:56
  hours earlier. Yeah, new, new security guard or
• 1:08:59
  whatever. And I've got my hand on Mickey's
• 1:09:01
  shoulder and I'm acting like I'm blind.
• 1:09:03
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so I, like, bump in like a
• 1:09:05
  bump into people, like all this stuff.
• 1:09:07
  And the guy literally just lets us through.
• 1:09:10
  So then, yeah. So then, tricky part, right?
• 1:09:13
  We wanted to play blind. Valor.
• 1:09:15
  Yeah, that is kind of crazy. All right.
• 1:09:18
  My my friend Andy at the time, her mom was blind and her mom
• 1:09:22
  found out about the story and she said hell yeah, blinded up.
• 1:09:25
  So I think I have the blind actually.
• 1:09:27
  Yeah, blinded up. So that that was step one.
• 1:09:30
  But Step 2 was OK, now we have to sit down at a table, which as
• 1:09:34
  you know, when you go to a casino, when you sit down, they
• 1:09:35
  say IDs, right? Got to show up another variable
• 1:09:40
  here. So I'm keeping the blind act up.
• 1:09:42
  We sit down at a blackjack table and.
• 1:09:45
  Colour Jack. Sure, you can call it what you
• 1:09:49
  want. I call it yeah.
• 1:09:52
  Head of 1/2 black household. Yes.
• 1:09:54
  Yeah, I will. You have to continue the story.
• 1:09:58
  I know, but I'm like, yeah. So we sit down at the table and
• 1:10:02
  I just keep the blind act going. The lady doesn't question it.
• 1:10:05
  Again the dealer, She looks at Mickey's Idi.
• 1:10:09
  I've been very blatant, like in my convincing, like I'm a blind
• 1:10:12
  person. And for the rest of the night,
• 1:10:14
  we played blackjack for Polly. Six hours, I kid you not, every
• 1:10:18
  time she would throw me cards, I would turn to Mickey and be
• 1:10:20
  like, what am I showing? What is she showing?
• 1:10:23
  OK, OK, what did I get? And then there the night went.
• 1:10:28
  Now this is where again, we had to ask for forgiveness.
• 1:10:32
  Drinks are free when you sit down at a table in Las Vegas.
• 1:10:36
  And I may have over served myself.
• 1:10:37
  And there were certainly points later in the night where I'm
• 1:10:40
  like pulling my glasses down like, oh, I think the lady knew
• 1:10:45
  which I lost like $500.00. So that's kind of what I get.
• 1:10:48
  Nice. We planned meticulously for this
• 1:10:50
  for like a year. Like we're going to go to Vegas
• 1:10:53
  first time all for you to just forget your.
• 1:10:54
  ID and lose all my money. Yeah, trippy.
• 1:10:57
  Wow, that's. Vegas for you.
• 1:10:58
  Man, so yeah, lost all my money and I didn't, I think.
• 1:11:02
  I thought you did. Yeah.
• 1:11:03
  You know, monster's like ADHD. You're like lost all my.
• 1:11:08
  Money. We got into a fight with a
• 1:11:11
  ginger that was just running his mouth and then we went home and
• 1:11:15
  that was how I I. I just remember him.
• 1:11:18
  Being so bright red real spell, did you guys just.
• 1:11:21
  Beat the hell out of him. Or like, it was kind of like a
• 1:11:22
  scuffle. And then someone like separated
• 1:11:25
  it pretty quick. Did he beat your guys?
• 1:11:27
  211 he was holding you guys like this.
• 1:11:29
  If we're like, I left out, he became a muppet again.
• 1:11:34
  Like he's like, no, he wasn't a very.
• 1:11:38
  Intimidating ginger. Some gingers are like offensive
• 1:11:40
  lineman ginger. And you're like, oh, you're for
• 1:11:42
  sure like Midwestern scary tough.
• 1:11:44
  Not him. OK, not him.
• 1:11:45
  Well, so yeah, don't pretend to be blind.
• 1:11:49
  It's not going to go well. It'll be a fun story.
• 1:11:51
  You're going to lose all your money and you're going to get in
• 1:11:53
  a fight with a ginger. We should.
• 1:11:55
  At a certain point in the future, we should talk about if
• 1:11:58
  we believe that Helen Keller really had those things that she
• 1:12:01
  claimed she had. Because I had thoughts.
• 1:12:04
  That's what your. Conspiracy theory in 100%.
• 1:12:08
  Interesting I. Mean I wouldn't die on.
• 1:12:10
  The Hill. But I mean, I kind of.
• 1:12:11
  Did you ever watch the Helen Keller movie?
• 1:12:14
  I think they don't. Watch and she's like.
• 1:12:16
  Yeah, which doesn't make any sense because she's deaf and a
• 1:12:18
  blind, she said. That's how she sounded like
• 1:12:21
  that. I'll pull up the clip right now.
• 1:12:22
  She can like, feel people's. Lip like you can feel how
• 1:12:24
  someone says it, but how would she?
• 1:12:26
  Know that if you if you, but it's based on your real life.
• 1:12:33
  Wait, Helen Keller wasn't? Fictional.
• 1:12:35
  Totally accurate. Helen Keller was a.
• 1:12:37
  Real person. Yes, I'm kidding.
• 1:12:39
  OK, Josh, No, you can't do that. Anyway, for another time, let us
• 1:12:44
  know if you want to help the one with the Helen Keller debate.
• 1:12:48
  Sydney, I don't know. What if we wait?
• 1:12:51
  What if we I? Have an idea?
• 1:12:54
  Hey guys, let us know if this would actually be funny.
• 1:12:55
  I'm just literally off the RIP right here.
• 1:12:57
  What if we had a Helen Keller episode where we were both
• 1:13:00
  blind? Where we were both Helen Keller.
• 1:13:02
  Yes, and we literally just have to.
• 1:13:03
  Talk and hope that it's going, Really.
• 1:13:05
  Like we just. Like you can.
• 1:13:09
  What? So I'm gonna tell a story.
• 1:13:12
  Yeah, that would be I would. Actually genuinely wonder to do
• 1:13:15
  it too. Do you ever have you ever this
• 1:13:18
  whatever, it's a long one. Who cares?
• 1:13:19
  Have you ever like kept your eyes closed or like covered one
• 1:13:22
  eye for a long time and then gone into a dark room?
• 1:13:24
  Yes, and you see differently right, For sure.
• 1:13:26
  I wonder, and this is such a stupid comparison, but if we
• 1:13:29
  like you couldn't hear yourself because that's part of the
• 1:13:32
  reason why and it's not being rude for somebody.
• 1:13:35
  Your wife looks at me in a certain way.
• 1:13:37
  Why deaf people sound like that, right?
• 1:13:39
  Because they can't hear themselves and they so then they
• 1:13:42
  talk like that, right? I.
• 1:13:44
  Wonder if at a? Certain amount of time if you
• 1:13:46
  did that for long enough, obviously not over the course of
• 1:13:48
  a podcast, but if we would talk differently does that make sense
• 1:13:52
  yes, for sure you would I. Think so?
• 1:13:53
  I don't think. It's fully possible because they
• 1:13:58
  can't even hear their inner ear. Like if you cover your ears.
• 1:13:59
  Yeah, you can still hear yourself vibration.
• 1:14:02
  Oh, I'll see the screen real quick.
• 1:14:03
  OK, I didn't hear anything. Wow, that was a loud.
• 1:14:07
  Screen that was actually crazy it.
• 1:14:08
  Actually peaked all the mics you just woke up all. 17 children,
• 1:14:13
  yeah. You what I thought you said I I
• 1:14:15
  peaked and I was like, Oh my gosh.
• 1:14:18
  Anyway, doesn't matter. We can talk about it off.
• 1:14:21
  Doesn't matter. Yeah, but hey, guys, thank you
