  Testecleese: Hello, and welcome to the 330th episode of this season of The Jeffrey and Brian Show. I am Jeffrey.
• 0:37
  Brian McFadden: I'm Ryan.
• 0:39
  Testecleese: And we're just two guys drinking some beers, talking about what's going on. We got, one of our regulars with us once again, El Guapo, our, token, our token, brown person and illegal immigrant.
• 0:50
  El Guapo: Yep, yep. All of that.
• 0:53
  El Guapo: If you see me in Mexico, you know what happened.
• 0:57
  El Guapo: Wait till…
• 0:58
  Testecleese: I don't know, man, I wouldn't mind. You might even want to contact, Trump yourself and have him send you to…
• 1:03
  Testecleese: El Salvador. You'll pay for the trip. El Salvador's kinda nice right now, isn't it?
• 1:07
  El Guapo: I know, so dude.
• 1:10
  El Guapo: We haven't,
• 1:13
  El Guapo: So, Salvadorians are bitchin' about, like, oh, we got all these people, my immigrants, coming to take our jobs, and shit like that.
• 1:20
  El Guapo: But at the same time, they're, like, they're making their own… like, people from Nicaragua, because I live in a communist country.
• 1:27
  El Guapo: So I moved to El Salvador, and they look the same, so you don't know who's who, you know?
• 1:32
  El Guapo: But they're doing, like, selling ice creams, doing, like, little, like, tidious stuff like that.
• 1:37
  El Guapo: I was like, why are you getting upset? They didn't want to create their own job, you know, you didn't want to do this thing, you know?
• 1:43
  Testecleese: Yeah. It's one thing if you had an ice cream cart set up, and this guy came and took your business away, but if no one was doing it, like, what the.
• 1:50
  El Guapo: Yeah, he just created a job for himself, so what you complaining about, you know? You could do this about… they're like, oh, I'm too good to do that, you know, because everybody want to be an engineer, or fucking, something else, you know?
• 2:01
  Testecleese: Well, we'll definitely get into immigration. We'll definitely get into that, because that's something I wanted to bring up, too.
• 2:07
  Testecleese: the whole, these are jobs that, no one wants to do. And then it's like, no, you don't want to do it. You know?
• 2:15
  Brian McFadden: There's a difference.
• 2:17
  Testecleese: Yeah. Alright, we got a little bit of follow-up to come through here.
• 2:20
  El Guapo: Now there… there's a Senate…
• 2:23
  Testecleese: senator, I guess, a Democrat or whatever, demanding we have to do the shoes-off thing at the, airport again. We've been… we've been talking about this
• 2:31
  Testecleese: Almost every freaking week for, like, 2 months now.
• 2:35
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 2:36
  El Guapo: And I paid for.
• 2:39
  Brian McFadden: Pre-check, just so I wouldn't have to take my shoes off anymore. It is freakin' theater.
• 2:44
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 2:45
  Brian McFadden: Taking shoes off, going through the x-ray machine is not gonna do anything for anything, except be an inconvenience and slow down the whole process.
• 2:53
  Testecleese: And bother people, because you… who wants to see everybody's nasty socks with holes in them, you know what I mean?
• 3:02
  Brian McFadden: Or go barefoot.
• 3:03
  El Guapo: This is a perfect chance for fucking Trump to do, propaganda?
• 3:09
  El Guapo: put his face, senator, like, this is what he wanna do, and put a QR code, like, this is what he said, the bill he wanna propose, you know?
• 3:17
  El Guapo: So I bought him out, you know? Kind of deal.
• 3:21
  El Guapo: Because he wouldn't do this stupid rule, you know?
• 3:23
  El Guapo: And nothing will change.
• 3:30
  El Guapo: Yeah, I didn't hear you.
• 3:31
  Testecleese: Excellent, alright, I was just making sure that mute thing worked.
• 3:34
  El Guapo: No problem.
• 3:36
  Testecleese: Apparently, the wife isn't certain what time the show starts, because sometimes we're a little late.
• 3:40
  El Guapo: Which has not been an issue since Brian is no longer the president of the VFW.
• 3:47
  El Guapo: You…
• 3:48
  Testecleese: What are you?
• 3:48
  El Guapo: Sorry?
• 3:50
  Brian McFadden: I'm in Michigan now.
• 3:52
  El Guapo: resign, or…
• 3:53
  Brian McFadden: No, I'm still… I'm still the Senior Vice Commander until the end of May.
• 3:59
  El Guapo: Oh, okay, so they could just bull you out, something like that?
• 4:01
  Brian McFadden: Oh, they already voted me out.
• 4:03
  El Guapo: Oh, okay.
• 4:03
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, I mean, as soon as you said, I'm leaving the state, like, oh, we need to find someone to do this job, right?
• 4:08
  El Guapo: I.
• 4:08
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, but the elections were… they just had elections this last week, so…
• 4:13
  El Guapo: Oh, okay.
• 4:15
  Testecleese: Alright, so what's,
• 4:19
  Testecleese: Are we gonna be wearing shoes or not?
• 4:22
  El Guapo: No, that's what I was telling Brian, that this is a perfect time to put propaganda, like, hey, this senator wanna bring back shoes, no shoes in the airport to, you know, so put his QR code with the bill he wanna propose, and a video of him, like, him talking about it so he can get voted out, you know?
• 4:39
  Testecleese: You too dumb for me.
• 4:41
  Testecleese: Yeah, there you go.
• 4:42
  El Guapo: You know, like, how many airports there are, just put a…
• 4:46
  El Guapo: a little thing, you know, with his QR code videos, like, hey, you keep it, you wanna keep it in power? Because it's too dumb to realize this shit?
• 4:54
  El Guapo: You know, he just went up… he just…
• 4:56
  El Guapo: Like, tedious shit just to see that he can do it, you know?
• 4:59
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 5:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, exactly. One, it slows everything down. I don't think it made us any safer.
• 5:05
  El Guapo: And… Let's be real, this isn't, like, the 1950s.
• 5:09
  Testecleese: Where everybody dressed up nice to fly?
• 5:12
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 5:13
  Testecleese: Look at dudes in, like, sweatpants with holes in them. You wanna see their nasty feet and socks?
• 5:17
  El Guapo: Yeah, oh, like, they weren't say…
• 5:19
  Testecleese: People in sandals, you walk around… you have to walk around barefoot? That's gross.
• 5:23
  El Guapo: Yeah, like, yeah.
• 5:25
  Testecleese: Airports are nasty, and we all know that. People come from all over the world with all sorts of weird illness.
• 5:30
  El Guapo: And we let them in.
• 5:33
  Testecleese: Well, I mean, shoot, you go somewhere, you might bring back some weird…
• 5:37
  Testecleese: Not even as though you go somewhere, but someone comes to visit, you might bring something that you're immune to.
• 5:42
  El Guapo: You know what I mean?
• 5:44
  Testecleese: I mean, isn't that basically how we brought smallpox to the natives? It was like, we didn't…
• 5:49
  El Guapo: We had immunities to this stuff from having already dealt with it.
• 5:54
  Testecleese: And, you know, everyone's like, oh, they gave them smallpox blankets on purpose. We didn't understand germ theory. Germ theory didn't show up until, like, 1850-something, right?
• 6:02
  El Guapo: Right.
• 6:03
  El Guapo: Yeah, so that… yeah, ignore that shit.
• 6:06
  Testecleese: Yeah, I just… they didn't realize that this virus is all over this stuff.
• 6:10
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 6:12
  Testecleese: Okay, so what happened with the Supreme Court and Bannon?
• 6:16
  El Guapo: It's so…
• 6:17
  Testecleese: Something's heard of as contempt of Congress or something like that?
• 6:19
  El Guapo: No, the, the…
• 6:22
  Brian McFadden: I too.
• 6:22
  El Guapo: They declared he wasn't content to Congress, so they dismissed it. It's just a procedure, popular paperwork, but he already did.
• 6:29
  Testecleese: He still served time in prison, does he have, does he have any…
• 6:31
  El Guapo: Yeah, they're not gonna give him time, it's just paperwork.
• 6:35
  Brian McFadden: Does he get to sue the federal government now for, that's what I was scared.
• 6:39
  Testecleese: to say.
• 6:40
  El Guapo: I don't know.
• 6:40
  Testecleese: Wrongful imprisonment.
• 6:45
  Testecleese: Which I gotta laugh at, they're all saying… right now, they're all coming out and saying, we're, you know, we're taking names, we're gonna put them all in prison.
• 6:51
  El Guapo: And I'm like.
• 6:52
  Testecleese: This is literally what you're accusing Trump of doing right now.
• 6:55
  El Guapo: Yeah, yeah. It's, like, halfway through the term, we haven't done anything. Hitler-esque, you know?
• 7:03
  Testecleese: aren't…
• 7:04
  El Guapo: That's the thing, is I…
• 7:06
  Testecleese: I actually watched a video today about this. The Democrats have no idea what they stand for. The average person who votes Democrat doesn't know what the party stands for. They just know that it's not Trump.
• 7:16
  El Guapo: They just wanna get a… they say whatever they had to say to get elected, or to go with the fucking… whatever the masses want, and that's what they go for.
• 7:24
  El Guapo: They're just powerful.
• 7:25
  Testecleese: The thing is, it's not even the masses, it's just the loudest, most obnoxious people.
• 7:28
  El Guapo: And they don't realize that shit.
• 7:31
  Testecleese: But yeah, so it looks like he may get the whole thing… Dismissed and thrown out.
• 7:37
  El Guapo: It did, I really… I think the crowd just.
• 7:39
  Testecleese: Oh, it did, okay, when this article came out, it was…
• 7:43
  Testecleese: Still in the process. And we haven't mentioned Goo3 lately. Apparently, TMZ has said that they've been informed that she is dead.
• 7:51
  El Guapo: Guttree… Yeah.
• 7:54
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah, Savannah Guthrie's.
• 7:57
  El Guapo: Mother?
• 7:58
  Testecleese: I'm sorry, Guthrie.
• 7:59
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 8:02
  Testecleese: She went to Mexico, or TMZ went.
• 8:05
  Brian McFadden: So, she was kidnapped and taken to Mexico.
• 8:08
  Testecleese: On the other side.
• 8:09
  Brian McFadden: She lived on the Arizona border.
• 8:12
  Testecleese: That's what, they thought they could ransom her back because her daughter was famous?
• 8:15
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 8:16
  El Guapo: I guess so.
• 8:20
  Testecleese: Is Mexico doing anything about this?
• 8:23
  El Guapo: It's a Mexican Mafia, it's not a cartel, I think it's a Mexican Mafia.
• 8:28
  Testecleese: That's what I'm saying, is Mexico, like, the proper government investigating this, trying to find out what happened, or is this your typical ransom case going wrong, and then Mexico just says, if they come in and turn themselves in, we'll arrest them.
• 8:40
  El Guapo: Apparently, there's a guy calling in, like, hey, I can point you out where the body is, I mean, where you can get her, and now it's like, well, if you give me, like, half a Bitcoin, I can tell you where the body is, you know, but…
• 8:52
  Brian McFadden: Right, he wants reward money, he wants the crypto reward money.
• 8:54
  El Guapo: U.S. government is not talking to Mexico. Mexico, they're like, okay, what are you guys, you know, they don't know.
• 9:01
  El Guapo: What's going on?
• 9:02
  Testecleese: That's what I was curious, is Mexico… has the United States contacted Mexico to say, hey.
• 9:07
  Testecleese: Get on this, or… or… at least let us.
• 9:10
  El Guapo: Depends how a fucking ego gets in the way, because apparently there's fucking state and the federal, they're having ish… they were battling this out about this fucking… who's gonna… whose jurisdiction is this, you know?
• 9:22
  Testecleese: Yes, but we could consider that terrorism, kidnapping and ransoming someone and taking them out of the country.
• 9:28
  El Guapo: Yeah, but by the time the FBI got to it, the crime scene was… Not even that, dude. Contaminated.
• 9:35
  Testecleese: Not even that. If we have hostages somewhere, we don't negotiate with these terrorists, we send in frickin' Delta Squad or a SEAL team.
• 9:43
  Testecleese: And extract them like they're Maduro.
• 9:45
  El Guapo: That's the thing where, like, nobody knows where to go.
• 9:51
  Testecleese: Hey, if you can't find these people, you can't find these people, unfortunately. I just…
• 9:55
  Testecleese: This sounds like a situation where we would actually send in an elite team
• 9:59
  Testecleese: to arrest the, terrorists, you know what I mean? Just like…
• 10:02
  El Guapo: Bin Laden or any other.
• 10:05
  Testecleese: Evil man we've gone and arrested, or…
• 10:08
  El Guapo: Or assassinated.
• 10:12
  El Guapo: Me- okay.
• 10:13
  Testecleese: been looking for this case for a while, I saw something come up about it.
• 10:18
  Testecleese: A week ago, Irina Zerutska, remember her?
• 10:24
  El Guapo: Shit.
• 10:25
  Testecleese: It was the…
• 10:26
  El Guapo: Ukraine that got stabbed?
• 10:27
  Testecleese: Yes, in the side of the neck, right through, like, the artery.
• 10:30
  El Guapo: Yeah, right through the artery.
• 10:32
  Testecleese: And the guy who stabbed her said, yeah, I got that white bitch.
• 10:37
  Testecleese: What pissed me off is that people just sat there and watched, and no one even tried to help, even though you weren't gonna be able to save her, but no one even tried to do anything.
• 10:44
  El Guapo: Well, I don't know if you noticed the video, because he stabber?
• 10:49
  El Guapo: twice, I thought.
• 10:50
  El Guapo: Huh? Yeah, she, like, put her hand to her neck, like, I'm not sure what happened.
• 10:53
  El Guapo: At the same time, she wasn't scared? She didn't know she was dying.
• 10:57
  El Guapo: She… so all of a sudden, it's, like, emotion, like, you just don't know what's going on. She just scream on that thing, and when the men, she's dead, so, like, you're just, like, trying to…
• 11:08
  El Guapo: Monday quarterbacking this now, because we can see the video about Delino.
• 11:12
  Testecleese: Correct, but like you said, within a minute or two, she was dead because…
• 11:16
  El Guapo: You know, like…
• 11:17
  Testecleese: through the artery, the blood would have been everywhere.
• 11:20
  El Guapo: Well, you seen the video?
• 11:22
  Testecleese: Yeah, immediately there wasn't, but, I mean, we didn't watch…
• 11:26
  El Guapo: She probably ran down her body and stuff, because she was covering it, and like… so, it wasn't like… like in the movies and shit, you know?
• 11:33
  Testecleese: Actually, arterial spray is a real thing. It depends on how… what the wound is like.
• 11:37
  El Guapo: Yeah, but the video itself, it doesn't show that, like, you're just trying to figure out, like, what is going on, you know, like, if she just passed out, or like…
• 11:45
  Testecleese: Yeah, no one tried to…
• 11:47
  El Guapo: Did you cut the feet? I don't know, after that, so I don't know.
• 11:50
  Testecleese: That was probably when all the blood started spilling out everywhere, and pooling up, you know what I mean?
• 11:54
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 11:55
  Testecleese: But anyway, Connecticut recently…
• 11:58
  Testecleese: made a private company take down a mural to Arena…
• 12:04
  Testecleese: Zarutska, because they said it was too political, while across the street there's a BLM.
• 12:09
  El Guapo: mural.
• 12:11
  El Guapo: Which is not political. I found that very interesting.
• 12:14
  El Guapo: Hey, Dad.
• 12:15
  Testecleese: And…
• 12:16
  El Guapo: He just, made touchdown to Earp.
• 12:18
  El Guapo: Yeah, and since last week, when that happened, now her alleged killer has been deemed not fit to stand trial, and is going to be staying at a mental facility, a psychiatric facility, until…
• 12:34
  El Guapo: Such time he is, deemed ready to stand trial.
• 12:37
  El Guapo: If I were this guy, I would make sure I stayed in that facility the rest of my life, because… Yup.
• 12:43
  El Guapo: It's gonna be much nicer than the jail cell. The prison cell, you know what I mean?
• 12:50
  El Guapo: But this is, this is nuts.
• 12:52
  El Guapo: This just blows my mind, and no one gave a shit.
• 12:55
  El Guapo: Not even on the bus, Oh. Like, at all in the country.
• 13:00
  Testecleese: There was a brief little outrage, but you were immediately racist for saying, what the fuck?
• 13:06
  El Guapo: You know?
• 13:09
  El Guapo: So, yeah, so wonderful, can't, can't, dedicate a mural to her, and, we're not even going to be trying her murderer.
• 13:20
  El Guapo: And remember, folks, she… is a Ukrainian refugee.
• 13:25
  Testecleese: She's not some white woman. She fled the war in Ukraine to come here. The very immigrants you want to come into this country.
• 13:34
  El Guapo: Yeah. Because I'm cool with actual refugees.
• 13:37
  Testecleese: Granted, Ukraine probably had somewhere else they could have gone instead of the United States.
• 13:41
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 13:42
  Testecleese: But actual refugees, like, if you're running away from communism and end up here.
• 13:46
  El Guapo: I'm probably gonna let you stay.
• 13:48
  Testecleese: But if you're coming across the border for economic growth.
• 13:52
  Testecleese: That's what the problem is.
• 13:54
  El Guapo: Well, that's the purpose of being a woman, because you can escape a country, and guys have to stay behind and fight the war. Yeah.
• 14:02
  El Guapo: Oh, jeez… I… we haven't talked much about what's going on in Ukraine in a while, but…
• 14:08
  Testecleese: Apparently, there is some serious… there's a serious death toll over there.
• 14:15
  Testecleese: Like, holy crap, they're running out of people to fight.
• 14:18
  El Guapo: Yeah. Well, they just met our deal with Japan.
• 14:23
  Testecleese: Ukraine did?
• 14:24
  El Guapo: Yeah, they… because they're so good with their, drones technology, they sell a bunch of drones technology to Japan to defend themselves against China.
• 14:36
  Testecleese: the Ukrainians sold…
• 14:39
  Testecleese: Wow, so how did Ukraine get so advanced at drone tech? Was this all of a sudden, or were they doing this for a decade before…
• 14:46
  El Guapo: I don't know, they just… because I see that, like, they were getting better and better, it was crazy. So they're fighting a lot of missiles with, drones.
• 14:55
  Testecleese: So they probably have, like, 2 or 3 brilliant dudes that know how to do all this shit, and they're…
• 15:00
  El Guapo: Adjusting on the fly. They got a contract now with Japan to create drones to defend themselves, because Japan is suffering from, you know, depopulation right now.
• 15:13
  Testecleese: Not just that, Japan only recently was allowed to build a military.
• 15:17
  El Guapo: Yeah, but they have constantly been having… the population's aging fast, and now it's not a replacement now. South Korea's about to be distinguished, too.
• 15:28
  Testecleese: Yeah, I think… the only group
• 15:34
  Testecleese: expanding their population are religious groups at this point, like Catholics…
• 15:38
  Testecleese: Muslims, yeah. The Jews are still declining.
• 15:43
  El Guapo: Joe, it's been a dumb.
• 15:44
  El Guapo: Did not.
• 15:45
  Testecleese: I know, but there's still fewer… there are still fewer Jews on the planet than there were pre-World War II.
• 15:50
  El Guapo: It was messed up, well, not messed up, but it's funny, and…
• 15:55
  El Guapo: Haha, type of funny. The only way you could turn it… be a Jewish is by mother, not by father.
• 16:01
  Testecleese: Yes, it's, matriarchy.
• 16:04
  El Guapo: No, because you can tell who's the mother is, but you cannot tell who the father is.
• 16:13
  Testecleese: Well, like, when my father, he was, some kind of Protestant, I'm not sure which one. He still is.
• 16:17
  El Guapo: No, no, but this is from past, like.
• 16:20
  Testecleese: I know.
• 16:20
  El Guapo: That's a year.
• 16:21
  Testecleese: I know, but… but…
• 16:23
  Testecleese: he was allowed to marry my mother, a Catholic, in a Catholic church, but he just had to agree
• 16:30
  Testecleese: to raise the children Catholic.
• 16:33
  Testecleese: Same idea, was it, you know, came…
• 16:35
  Testecleese: Now, it's not written in stone that works that way, but it's always, yeah, we'll do a Catholic ceremony, but…
• 16:41
  Testecleese: and we'll recognize the marriage, but you have to raise the kids Catholic. Versus the Jews say, if your mother's Jewish, you're Jewish.
• 16:50
  El Guapo: So…
• 16:52
  Testecleese: The rumors of Michael J. Fox's death have been greatly exaggerated, I guess?
• 16:57
  Brian McFadden: Yes, by CNN.
• 16:58
  El Guapo: He's still alive.
• 17:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, I didn't… He made a joke.
• 17:03
  Brian McFadden: about it, too. He's like, so.
• 17:06
  El Guapo: what…
• 17:07
  Brian McFadden: You're hoping that your wife is calling you concerned about you being dead, you know, and things like that, you know?
• 17:15
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, he, he made, he made light of it.
• 17:19
  Testecleese: I mean, accidents happen, but how do you…
• 17:21
  Brian McFadden: Well, this just shows all these… but all these… all these networks have these obituaries already pre-created, these, you know, these, you know, 2-minute video clips of the highlights of the stars' lives and stuff.
• 17:35
  Testecleese: Yeah, of their career.
• 17:36
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, they're all in the can already.
• 17:39
  Testecleese: Yeah, and it's gotta be weird to watch your, highlight reel from CNN, you know what I mean?
• 17:44
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 17:45
  Testecleese: Oh, this is what we are remembered for?
• 17:49
  Testecleese: Which, let's be real, is probably mostly family ties and Back to the Future, right?
• 17:53
  El Guapo: Oh, yeah.
• 17:56
  Testecleese: I mean, he was involved in a lot of stuff.
• 18:01
  Brian McFadden: And with ties is where he's got his main claim to fame, you know?
• 18:04
  Testecleese: That's how he got his…
• 18:05
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, he's how I got a star, yeah.
• 18:07
  El Guapo: You know, Fawlita, the parents were liberals, but the father was conservative.
• 18:12
  El Guapo: Yeah, I watched them. I grew up watching Family Ties. Me too.
• 18:19
  El Guapo: Oh.
• 18:19
  Testecleese: Jeez, that was a long time ago. What the hell are you typing away over there? Are you sending emails out?
• 18:24
  El Guapo: I'm just talking.
• 18:26
  Brian McFadden: He's working on his next date.
• 18:28
  El Guapo: No, no, the integrity touched on, by the way.
• 18:32
  El Guapo: Few minutes.
• 18:33
  Brian McFadden: Oh, I was gonna livestream that, damn it.
• 18:35
  Testecleese: Artemis.
• 18:36
  El Guapo: Yeah, no.
• 18:36
  Brian McFadden: Pardon me.
• 18:37
  El Guapo: The aircraft, the craft, the mission, the spacecraft was an atomist, but the spacecraft, there's integrity.
• 18:44
  El Guapo: the little.
• 18:45
  Testecleese: Yeah, alright.
• 18:45
  Brian McFadden: Oh, okay. Yeah.
• 18:48
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 18:49
  Brian McFadden: So, the Navy divers got them out now?
• 18:51
  El Guapo: No idea, like, that's all the information I got so far, so, like, oh, okay.
• 18:56
  Testecleese: So, basically what we mean to say is we have Splashdown.
• 19:00
  El Guapo: Okay. That's pretty cool to know.
• 19:03
  El Guapo: Apparently, okay.
• 19:06
  Testecleese: Remember what… okay, I was going nuts, not even nuts. I went on a little rant how I think the king is Muslim now, because he's…
• 19:13
  Testecleese: Recognizing Ramadan, but not Easter.
• 19:15
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 19:16
  Testecleese: Well, apparently the Democrat Party put out some kind of Easter post, but kept, Joe Biden out of it, and I found that a little interesting.
• 19:24
  Brian McFadden: trying to pretend like he wasn't President of the United States, because he was that good.
• 19:28
  Testecleese: They told us he was, like, the best president in the history of the world when he was in office, until… until right…
• 19:33
  Testecleese: When, he decided to re- run again.
• 19:37
  Brian McFadden: Then all of a sudden… But, yeah, he made the decision to drop out of the race, you know he did.
• 19:43
  Testecleese: Oh, right, yeah, you were forced out by everyone else.
• 19:46
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 19:48
  El Guapo: By calling.
• 19:48
  Testecleese: to ruin…
• 19:49
  El Guapo: All the other decisions he made throughout his presidency, Mr. Adoppin.
• 19:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, through his term of autopen.
• 19:57
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 19:58
  El Guapo: His eyes… here for him.
• 20:02
  Brian McFadden: There was a lot of things that did it for him.
• 20:05
  Testecleese: This is, yeah…
• 20:07
  Testecleese: And it's hilarious, people are still complaining about gas prices, and don't get me wrong, expensive gasoline sucks.
• 20:13
  El Guapo: But…
• 20:14
  Testecleese: We're… isn't this right about where Joe Biden's peak gas prices were?
• 20:19
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 20:21
  Testecleese: And nobody complained then.
• 20:24
  Testecleese: And I'd just like to say,
• 20:26
  Testecleese: You could… I wish I had it in front of me, but Colbert…
• 20:29
  Testecleese: quoted back, when Biden was in office.
• 20:33
  Testecleese: And the gas prices went up. And he said, I don't care if gas goes up a little, a couple bucks, because, for a clean conscience.
• 20:41
  Testecleese: I drive a Tesla anyway.
• 20:44
  El Guapo: Right.
• 20:44
  Testecleese: I was like, so where are all these electric cars? Oh, wait a minute, they're taxing you for your electric car now, too.
• 20:51
  Testecleese: After they forced you to do that.
• 20:53
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 20:55
  El Guapo: Why not?
• 20:57
  Testecleese: This is very interesting, I think you shared this, Brian, and… the first thing I thought was, I talked about this years ago on this show.
• 21:05
  El Guapo: France has pulled, what.
• 21:08
  Testecleese: $15 billion out of U.S. vaults?
• 21:11
  Brian McFadden: I was shocked they were able to find out, find the goal to give back to them.
• 21:15
  Testecleese: That's exactly what I was thinking. I was like, I am shocked that they had $15 billion in gold, and we hadn't already sold it all.
• 21:22
  El Guapo: Because we've…
• 21:23
  Testecleese: We've been sitting on this since World War II, right?
• 21:26
  El Guapo: Hold on, hold on, no, no, you're talking from Four Knox, or from the Federal Reserve? That's a whole.
• 21:32
  Brian McFadden: Doesn't matter.
• 21:33
  El Guapo: Yes.
• 21:34
  Brian McFadden: You think there's gold in either place?
• 21:36
  El Guapo: for the reserve than the.
• 21:38
  Testecleese: The Federal Reserve is United States gold.
• 21:42
  Testecleese: Yes, and then we have, like.
• 21:44
  El Guapo: Federal Reserve is a private entity.
• 21:46
  Testecleese: Yes, and that's where the United States stores their gold.
• 21:50
  El Guapo: No, we sort of go to Fort Knox.
• 21:53
  Testecleese: No, Fort Knox we're using to, protect the rest of the world's gold, that and a handful of other places like Fort Knox. Yes, we have some there, I'm sure, but there are several branches of, Federal Reserve, too.
• 22:05
  El Guapo: Yeah, it's all branches for the reserve, but they want to keep most of the gold is in New York, and when they transfer gold from one place to another one, it's, like, down there in the other cage.
• 22:13
  Brian McFadden: Alright, the gold reserves in the U.S. are in a few highly secure locations. The main ones are Fort Knox…
• 22:22
  El Guapo: Okay.
• 22:23
  Brian McFadden: and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and the U.S. Mint in Denver, and the U.S.
• 22:29
  Brian McFadden: Bullion Dispository in West Point.
• 22:32
  Testecleese: You say suppository? Do you want to shove a gold bar up your ass?
• 22:36
  Brian McFadden: Why not?
• 22:38
  Testecleese: I would do it.
• 22:40
  Brian McFadden: Right. Be like Willy Wonka.
• 22:43
  Testecleese: Trying to hold.
• 22:44
  Brian McFadden: Oh, dear.
• 22:44
  Testecleese: Butthole shut so you don't drop that heavy gold bar out, though?
• 22:50
  Testecleese: But yeah, what is a break of gold worth these days? Holy crap.
• 22:54
  Brian McFadden: And the gold is actually owned by the U.S. Treasury, not the Federal Reserve.
• 23:00
  Testecleese: Yes, it's United States gold, not the federal.
• 23:02
  Brian McFadden: And then, Chad GBT also says, the U.S. holds about 8,000 tons of gold.
• 23:09
  Testecleese: Tots.
• 23:12
  Testecleese: Is it too late to switch back to gold from oil?
• 23:15
  Testecleese: Or do we have to collect more gold to make that work?
• 23:19
  Brian McFadden: I think we'd have to collect more gold to make it work.
• 23:23
  Testecleese: Yeah, because I remember we… like we said, we're both surprised that there was gold there, because remember, many years ago, the Germans asked to see the gold?
• 23:33
  Testecleese: I went out and got one bar for them to look at.
• 23:36
  Brian McFadden: Huh?
• 23:37
  Testecleese: Oh, no. This is… this is not good.
• 23:42
  Testecleese: And I get… I get you could say it's a secure facility, Well, I mean…
• 23:50
  Testecleese: If they think the gold's not there, They're gonna stop… Pulling it out.
• 23:55
  Brian McFadden: Dope.
• 23:56
  Testecleese: And if everyone starts pulling their gold out.
• 23:59
  Testecleese: Real question, what's gonna happen to the value of gold? Is it gonna go up or down?
• 24:04
  Testecleese: If everyone takes private ownership of the gold, most of the gold in the world.
• 24:09
  Brian McFadden: I think it would go down.
• 24:11
  Testecleese: down, so you're thinking I should wait until a bunch of them do this, then buy?
• 24:15
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 24:17
  Testecleese: I was curious that it might spike up, because they're taking private ownership, and…
• 24:23
  Testecleese: protecting it better, maybe? I don't know.
• 24:26
  Testecleese: But I suppose…
• 24:28
  Testecleese: If we actually have all this gold still, in protection, that means whatever we're doing has worked, and if the French take their gold back, what they are gonna do might not work.
• 24:37
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 24:38
  Testecleese: You're…
• 24:39
  Testecleese: So yeah, that might actually… might actually drive the price down if there's actual thoughts that it could be stolen.
• 24:45
  Testecleese: Because, I mean, how many times do we hear about these?
• 24:48
  Testecleese: crazy friggin'…
• 24:50
  Testecleese: Every now and then, we have one of these crazy stories of the guy who, like, stole the painting in France, you know what I mean?
• 24:56
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 24:56
  Testecleese: Didn't one of these just come up?
• 24:59
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, they broke into the loo and stole a bunch of shit.
• 25:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, like, this is, like, spy movie shit, like.
• 25:05
  Brian McFadden: Which is a.
• 25:05
  Testecleese: 11 kind of stuff.
• 25:07
  Testecleese: It's funny, because every time something like that happens, I go straight to Boondock Saints.
• 25:12
  Testecleese: He goes, this is movie bullshit! This doesn't happen in real life!
• 25:16
  Brian McFadden: loaded.
• 25:19
  Testecleese: You've definitely seen the Boondog Saints, right?
• 25:21
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
• 25:22
  Testecleese: Okay.
• 25:24
  Testecleese: What do you think, Wabo? You think, if all these nations pull their gold out, that's going to spike the price, or plummet the price of gold?
• 25:34
  Testecleese: You're muted, by the way.
• 25:39
  Brian McFadden: You're muted.
• 25:39
  El Guapo: Alright, you got it.
• 25:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, you're good.
• 25:43
  El Guapo: I've got, I wanna say plummet the price, because everybody's gonna have a.
• 25:49
  Testecleese: Because it might… because it's more possible to be stolen and just…
• 25:54
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 25:54
  Testecleese: Spread out more, yeah.
• 25:56
  El Guapo: Oh, or it's gonna just affect us, the prices are like, oh shoot, they took the gold, so now we have to buy gold.
• 26:02
  Testecleese: See, that's what I was worried about, was panic buying.
• 26:05
  Testecleese: People might start panic buying gold, because everyone's pulling their gold back, which would spike the price. So, like, exactly, like, I see an opportunity to invest, I just don't know if I should do it now, or wait until Germany and Great Britain pull their gold out, too.
• 26:20
  El Guapo: You know? Yeah.
• 26:23
  Testecleese: What does ChatGPT say? What does it think the possible… it might… this might do to the price of gold, Brian? Because now I… this sounds like a real chance, even… even if you're not buying an entire ounce of gold.
• 26:34
  El Guapo: Would you like…
• 26:34
  Testecleese: What, like, 5 grand right now?
• 26:36
  Testecleese: Yeah, just a little bit of it.
• 26:38
  Testecleese: If it goes up by 10%, fuckin' dump it, you know what I mean?
• 26:48
  Testecleese: Alright, well, Brian's trying to find some answers here. Apparently.
• 26:51
  Brian McFadden: Short answer, not necessarily. In most realistic scenarios, it would have little direct impact on gold's price.
• 26:57
  El Guapo: Oh, that's good. I'll take that.
• 26:59
  Testecleese: That's what the AI thinks, and that's probably because it's looking at it as…
• 27:02
  El Guapo: It's perfect.
• 27:03
  Brian McFadden: Oh, and this says Germany did take their gold back.
• 27:07
  Brian McFadden: They move it from New York to their own vaults, like Germany did.
• 27:11
  El Guapo: Okay, where's the boat locator, Germany? Probably the one next door.
• 27:14
  El Guapo: It doesn't mix, you know…
• 27:17
  Testecleese: Well, what's crazy is, how are you gonna get this gold from New York?
• 27:20
  Testecleese: or Fort Knox… to France.
• 27:23
  Brian McFadden: How did they get in there in the first place?
• 27:26
  Testecleese: on ships.
• 27:27
  El Guapo: Yeah, ships and airplane.
• 27:29
  Testecleese: It went across the ocean, and there was a real chance, at any time that that ship could have gone down to the ocean floor, and you know that, right?
• 27:36
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 27:37
  Testecleese: Especially in a wartime situation. Dear God, could you imagine if Iran…
• 27:42
  Testecleese: Had the opportunity to sink $15 billion of gold to the ocean floor, you don't think they would… you think they would hesitate to do that?
• 27:50
  El Guapo: Oh, we fuckin'.
• 27:51
  Brian McFadden: Not at all.
• 27:52
  El Guapo: Okay, but we gonna… Fightful, though.
• 27:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm just… if that much gold just disappeared, the value of gold would spike so fast.
• 28:01
  El Guapo: Yay.
• 28:03
  Testecleese: Well, we use gold for actual stuff, not just,
• 28:06
  Testecleese: as a metal, you know what I mean?
• 28:08
  El Guapo: Yes, good conductor, insulator… So then, it got a lot of properties.
• 28:15
  Testecleese: It'll block radiation.
• 28:17
  El Guapo: That's what he used on the,
• 28:19
  Testecleese: The astronaut's helmet is gold.
• 28:20
  El Guapo: Nick, yeah.
• 28:21
  Testecleese: Yeah, instead of, like, a thick lead shield you can't see through.
• 28:26
  Testecleese: Gold is amazing, it really is, and what's crazy is we've been collecting it as a species since we've figured out
• 28:33
  Testecleese: Gold was different.
• 28:34
  El Guapo: Yeah, and what we do…
• 28:35
  Testecleese: value on it, and like, holy crap, that shit does everything!
• 28:38
  El Guapo: To get out a hole to put it back in another hole.
• 28:43
  Testecleese: Alright, so… so this Eric Swalwell shit keeps coming up.
• 28:51
  Testecleese: But now he's been accused of, diddling his staff, or harassing them, or something. Yup. And he's, like, threatening people for even having an investigation into an allization. False allocations.
• 29:05
  El Guapo: Do it.
• 29:07
  Testecleese: Isn't this what Swalwell did, was make shit up about Trump, and…
• 29:12
  El Guapo: and the Supreme Court.
• 29:13
  Testecleese: Eddie banked a Chinese spy.
• 29:15
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 29:17
  Testecleese: Didn't… didn't Maxine Juarez have a Korean driver that was a spy or something?
• 29:21
  El Guapo: Pelosi.
• 29:22
  Brian McFadden: There it is.
• 29:23
  El Guapo: Pelosi.
• 29:24
  Testecleese: Pelosi? Okay.
• 29:27
  Testecleese: For the love of Pete, guys, come on!
• 29:30
  El Guapo: I know.
• 29:32
  Testecleese: I don't understand why he's…
• 29:34
  Testecleese: It's one thing to be upset they're investigating you, because you might get in trouble.
• 29:39
  Testecleese: But to say… he's…
• 29:42
  El Guapo: doing, like.
• 29:42
  Testecleese: Like, cease and desist kind of stuff.
• 29:44
  El Guapo: Well, if the truth comes out, let's see what happens, you know?
• 29:50
  Testecleese: Yeah, you can't just say, no, you're not allowed to investigate a crime.
• 29:55
  El Guapo: Trump need to get fuckin', Trey Gardios the AG, man, that would be a badass.
• 30:00
  El Guapo: Hey, G.
• 30:03
  Testecleese: For it… replacing Bondi?
• 30:06
  Testecleese: It's going to be Lee Zeldin, I bet.
• 30:09
  El Guapo: We'll see. Yeah.
• 30:11
  Testecleese: Just my, just my guess.
• 30:13
  Brian McFadden: Rumor of who…
• 30:14
  El Guapo: I'm saying, like, Trey Gotti would be a perfect executioner, you know?
• 30:20
  Testecleese: Yeah, I mean, realistically, if they just enforce the fucking law, I'm gonna be happy with whoever's in that office.
• 30:26
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 30:27
  Testecleese: We don't just get to decide that we're not gonna enforce this, or we're not gonna… shoot, that… that…
• 30:32
  Testecleese: Poor black man.
• 30:35
  Testecleese: Killed a cop, right?
• 30:38
  Testecleese: He did his gun at another cop.
• 30:40
  Testecleese: Pulled the trigger, but I jammed. He got manslaughter for killing the cop. He got attempted murder for a misfire.
• 30:48
  Testecleese: Like, well, if he tried to kill a bad guy, what, why, what, why didn't he intentionally kill the other guy? Like, how, you know what I mean?
• 30:55
  Testecleese: And, granted, he's gonna spend the rest of his life in prison anyway, this is a New York thing.
• 31:01
  Testecleese: But, like, You convicted him on lesser charges.
• 31:04
  El Guapo: And that just…
• 31:06
  Testecleese: No, enforce it the way it's supposed to be done.
• 31:11
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 31:13
  Testecleese: Alright, so we got a lot of Michigan today.
• 31:16
  Testecleese: I shared a Michigan one, too, because it was a big deal to me.
• 31:21
  Testecleese: I'll bring it up first, actually.
• 31:23
  Testecleese: So remember that,
• 31:25
  Testecleese: Was it one guy or a group of dudes that drove their car through, the synagogue?
• 31:30
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 31:31
  Testecleese: In Michigan.
• 31:35
  Testecleese: NPR.
• 31:36
  Testecleese: Didn't interview a single member of that, synagogue at all.
• 31:42
  Testecleese: But, they did manage to drag down some of the pals of the guy.
• 31:47
  Testecleese: Who lives 6,000 miles away in Lebanon.
• 31:50
  El Guapo: Goddamn.
• 31:51
  Testecleese: to get… To get, a statement.
• 31:55
  Brian McFadden: Nice.
• 31:55
  Testecleese: But they couldn't speak to anyone who was…
• 31:58
  Testecleese: the actual victim. They made this guy come across like he's been oppressed or whatever. He literally came here to kill Jews. Right.
• 32:05
  El Guapo: Can't make this shut up!
• 32:10
  Testecleese: And it's like, oh, no, he was… I was like, he was in Lebanon until right before he did this shit! You know what I mean?
• 32:17
  Testecleese: So if anyone's to blame, it's his fucking friends in Lebanon!
• 32:24
  Testecleese: Oh.
• 32:26
  Testecleese: Criminy! Anyway, what else is going on in Michigan?
• 32:30
  Brian McFadden: The… there was… Michigan played in the, NCAA Basketball National Game… title game this week, and, the NCA double… NCAA decided it'd be a great idea
• 32:45
  Brian McFadden: To put a, a concert in between two basketball games.
• 32:51
  Testecleese: Well, I mean, I could see that, like, halftime.
• 32:54
  Brian McFadden: So that meant that the second game didn't start on the East Coast until, like, 9.30 at night.
• 33:02
  Testecleese: Oh, so they did a concert and not, like, 3 or 4 songs. Yeah. Or maybe, maybe even just 2.
• 33:09
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 33:10
  Testecleese: So, it was a double header, you said?
• 33:12
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 33:13
  Brian McFadden: It was like the semifinals.
• 33:15
  Testecleese: And the name of the band was the Chainsmokers?
• 33:21
  Testecleese: sounds, I don't know, either very prog rock, or…
• 33:28
  Testecleese: Oh my god.
• 33:29
  Testecleese: Punk.
• 33:31
  Testecleese: But let's be real, there has been a real punk band
• 33:34
  Testecleese: Since, like, the Sex Pistols, all this new modern…
• 33:37
  Brian McFadden: They are… it's… the Chainspokers are a popular American DJ-producer duo.
• 33:42
  Brian McFadden: Known for blending EDM, pop, and indie sounds.
• 33:46
  Testecleese: Yeah, prog rock, there we go, some progressive rock.
• 33:51
  Testecleese: Yeah, oh my god, alright.
• 33:54
  El Guapo: Yo.
• 33:58
  Testecleese: But I mean, let's be real, you said it was a AAA game?
• 34:01
  Brian McFadden: NCAA. That college game.
• 34:04
  Testecleese: Oh, college game. Okay, so I can see maybe why people would want to watch that from…
• 34:09
  El Guapo: you know.
• 34:10
  Testecleese: Maine or, you know, Florida.
• 34:13
  Testecleese: But you said the game didn't even start till, like, 9pm?
• 34:16
  Brian McFadden: It started after 9pm because of the concert.
• 34:18
  Testecleese: God.
• 34:20
  Testecleese: Baseball games can be, like, 3 hours long.
• 34:22
  Brian McFadden: It was basketball, and they're still 3 hours long.
• 34:28
  Testecleese: That's the thing about baseball, though, it's open-ended, it takes as long as it takes, doesn't it?
• 34:32
  Brian McFadden: This was a basketball game.
• 34:33
  Testecleese: I'm just… yes, yes, I didn't realize that we did double-headers in basketball.
• 34:37
  Brian McFadden: Only the NCAA on this stupid thing.
• 34:41
  Testecleese: Oh, gaggy.
• 34:41
  Testecleese: Because whenever you hear doubleheader, it's always baseball.
• 34:48
  Testecleese: That or some weird freaky dildo.
• 34:51
  Brian McFadden: And then we got a Michigan woman who was charged for allegedly starving her disabled sister-in-law.
• 34:57
  Brian McFadden: That she locked in the basement.
• 35:00
  El Guapo: Wow.
• 35:02
  Brian McFadden: You know, they did that for a check.
• 35:04
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 35:05
  Brian McFadden: Keep the money flowing.
• 35:08
  Brian McFadden: So they could have control over money.
• 35:10
  El Guapo: Yeah, they do… I don't know, but… it's a lot of… I…
• 35:16
  Testecleese: I just watched a video recently of,
• 35:19
  Testecleese: elderly man who could not take care of himself, by any means. Like, he was lost out in public.
• 35:26
  Testecleese: A soiled diaper on, and a t-shirt.
• 35:29
  El Guapo: Oh, I know which one you're talking about.
• 35:31
  Testecleese: So you saw this, too?
• 35:32
  El Guapo: Like, this dude, like, stops his… This didn't stop.
• 35:35
  Testecleese: his car, gets out to help this old man.
• 35:37
  El Guapo: He already knew him, like, from who he was, where he lives and stuff.
• 35:42
  Testecleese: David was like, I'm gonna take you home, and I guess this guy's sister…
• 35:45
  El Guapo: Who is this?
• 35:46
  Testecleese: caretaker, like, starts cussing him out and stuff, and she's getting paid for this. Like, if you're gonna collect money to do this, you need to actually do it. You can't let him wander around the neighborhood with a shit in his diaper, you know what I mean?
• 35:56
  El Guapo: And the guy, the guy, the disabled one, he's like, I already know you, thank you for helping me in a way, you know. I just see the video, I drive a lot, so I listen to that.
• 36:06
  Testecleese: Yeah, he listened to him. But yeah, exactly. Exactly, the old man knew that he was getting help.
• 36:11
  El Guapo: Yeah. Yeah. See what? See, you don't have to watch the video to hear what's going on, you know? It just kinda, like, kinda helps and stuff, you know?
• 36:20
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, it gives you a little more context, but that was clear what happened in that.
• 36:25
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 36:27
  Testecleese: story about this Michigan woman who kept her sister chained up in a basement, basically, and starved her, or sister-in-law.
• 36:35
  El Guapo: Oh.
• 36:35
  Testecleese: So, okay, did, did her brother die, the, spouse of the sister-in-law?
• 36:43
  Testecleese: How is he not involved in this?
• 36:45
  Testecleese: If they're still married, or still around.
• 36:50
  Testecleese: Yeah, you…
• 36:50
  Brian McFadden: They don't bring that up in the story.
• 36:52
  Testecleese: Yeah, you'd think if they're not married anymore, that he'd be… the sister-in-law wouldn't be taking care of her, you know what I mean?
• 36:58
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 37:00
  El Guapo: Interesting.
• 37:03
  Testecleese: Alright, you guys are building a bridge, I guess.
• 37:07
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, we were always building bridges.
• 37:10
  Testecleese: You guys lost a barge?
• 37:12
  El Guapo: What's true.
• 37:12
  Brian McFadden: Oh, who knows? It's just like a running story. Nobody knows where this barge came from, or what it was for, it's just floating down the Kalamusie River, randomly running into things now.
• 37:24
  Testecleese: The thing is, it's worth a ton of money, but the guy who owns it was like, Oof!
• 37:28
  Brian McFadden: I don't want to be liable for that!
• 37:30
  Testecleese: I don't want to pay for all that damage!
• 37:35
  Testecleese: They just floated down the Kalamazoo River, like, taking out bridges and stuff, right?
• 37:39
  Brian McFadden: Yum! Oh my god!
• 37:43
  El Guapo: I just…
• 37:44
  Testecleese: Oh.
• 37:46
  Testecleese: Michigan. You know, this is probably a stupid accident, like, it wasn't moored properly.
• 37:51
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 37:53
  Testecleese: But, oh…
• 37:54
  Brian McFadden: And then in other exciting news, I… I'm moved to the wrong city in, Michigan. I should have moved to Detroit, because they're offering up $15,000 for people to come and live there.
• 38:06
  Testecleese: Do you know what'll get people to live in Michigan?
• 38:09
  Brian McFadden: Building cars?
• 38:11
  Testecleese: Building cars!
• 38:13
  Testecleese: Open up those factories in Detroit, start making Chevys and Fords again, don't regulate them to the point where they leave and tax them until they leave. Tons of jobs will show up, not just employ everyone who lives within…
• 38:26
  Testecleese: 50 to 100 miles at the point, but people will move there to get these jobs. Yup. And that'll… and that sprawls out, because now these people all need vehicles, they all need food, you know what I mean? They all need a 7-Eleven, they all need a gas station…
• 38:44
  Testecleese: That's the issue. You know, that's the big problem here in West… where I am in West Virginia.
• 38:49
  Testecleese: There's just… there's nothing here except for our coal mining and logging.
• 38:54
  El Guapo: So there's…
• 38:55
  Testecleese: Very little around, except for in, like, the major cities.
• 38:58
  El Guapo: Right.
• 38:59
  Testecleese: Out in the mountains, There's, like, 2 or 3 restaurants, you know what I mean?
• 39:03
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 39:04
  Testecleese: A couple gas stations, and then…
• 39:06
  Brian McFadden: The restaurant…
• 39:06
  Testecleese: Miles!
• 39:07
  Brian McFadden: All those buildings are… all those businesses are struggling to stay open, even though they're the only ones around, you know?
• 39:13
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, the, you saw how many abandoned…
• 39:16
  Testecleese: businesses were in the area, I'm sure, and the bar, the one I've been going to, just closed down for the same reason. There's just nobody
• 39:24
  Testecleese: Here, to go and keep his business aligned.
• 39:27
  Brian McFadden: Well, luckily they got Family Dollar and Dollar General.
• 39:31
  Testecleese: Yes, that's because everyone in the area goes to those places. If another one opened up nearby, they would probably all collapse.
• 39:42
  Testecleese: Which is interesting, I say collapsed.
• 39:46
  Testecleese: We just had a mudslide down in the city, right near us. You took… you came right by where this happened on your way to my place.
• 39:53
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 39:54
  Testecleese: There's a big brick wall to the building because of previous
• 39:58
  Testecleese: Mudslide, but they hadn't finished backfilling behind it, so when the…
• 40:03
  El Guapo: A cliff face came down.
• 40:06
  Testecleese: blew this wall out into the road, and they're still cleaning it up. This was days ago.
• 40:11
  Testecleese: Right. It took him an entire day to get one lane of traffic open. You could not get…
• 40:16
  Testecleese: to certain places. There was just…
• 40:18
  Testecleese: You could, but it was gonna be 4 extra hours, because you have.
• 40:21
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 40:21
  Testecleese: opposite direction and go around like a mountain, you know what I mean?
• 40:24
  Brian McFadden: I drove that… I went around the mountain.
• 40:27
  El Guapo: Yes, and it's…
• 40:29
  Testecleese: Many miles of nothing in some areas, huh?
• 40:32
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 40:33
  Testecleese: The occasional house would pop up, then after 60 miles, there's a gas station that everyone uses.
• 40:40
  Testecleese: Which actually…
• 40:41
  Brian McFadden: That's where I got gas.
• 40:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, you almost ran out of gas, Galt, because I was like, if you turn left outta here, dude, this is nothing.
• 40:47
  Testecleese: For, like, 100 miles!
• 40:49
  El Guapo: Yup. Like, there's nothing.
• 40:50
  Testecleese: until Snowshoe. Then there's a small village there.
• 40:57
  Testecleese: Did you even notice Snowshoe when you went by?
• 41:00
  Brian McFadden: Yeah. I've snowed there, I've skied there before.
• 41:03
  Testecleese: I'm just saying, like, if you don't see the sign, you're not gonna notice that it's the skiing mountain.
• 41:09
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 41:10
  Testecleese: I haven't been there yet myself, but I heard it's some of the better, skiing you can get.
• 41:14
  Testecleese: In the East.
• 41:15
  Brian McFadden: For this far.
• 41:16
  Testecleese: South.
• 41:16
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it is.
• 41:17
  Testecleese: Jay Peake's great, Tuckerman's Ravine is great.
• 41:22
  Testecleese: But, you know, that's way up north, too, and in the mountains.
• 41:26
  Testecleese: I just remember the one we had in Massachusetts, Wachuset Mountain.
• 41:31
  Testecleese: Oh, it was a joke, dude.
• 41:32
  Testecleese: It was a big hill, not a mountain. Right. You know?
• 41:36
  Testecleese: I'm like, yeah, alright.
• 41:37
  Brian McFadden: That's how the sea resorts are in Virginia.
• 41:40
  Testecleese: Yeah, and I was like, alright, well, I mean, it's only, like, 10 bucks for a Lyft ticket.
• 41:43
  Testecleese: You know, it's a good place to go to, like.
• 41:46
  Testecleese: Get a couple, you know, spend a day before you actually go up for the winter to go skiing.
• 41:52
  Testecleese: Cause, I mean, you go, you…
• 41:53
  Testecleese: You know how it… shit, you used to ski, right?
• 41:56
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 41:58
  Testecleese: Yeah, you know as well as I that if you're not ready for what's gonna happen, there's a very good chance you break your fucking leg, right?
• 42:05
  Testecleese: Guapo does not seem like a skier to me. If anything, I imagine he'd be on a snowboard if he was going to do it, but…
• 42:12
  Testecleese: Skiing and snowboarding is a very, very white activity, let's be fair. Let's be real.
• 42:17
  El Guapo: Yeah, I like the donut thing, just slide with the tube.
• 42:22
  Brian McFadden: He's in the tubing.
• 42:24
  Testecleese: Just… just tubing. Yeah, tubing's fun.
• 42:26
  El Guapo: Yeah, I don't… I don't like to be outside the snow. I mean, I don't mind walking, probably hiking through the snow, but…
• 42:35
  El Guapo: Don't know that for a long time.
• 42:37
  Testecleese: Oh, hiking through the snow is…
• 42:39
  Brian McFadden: So you like cross-country, you got cross-country skis?
• 42:42
  El Guapo: No.
• 42:43
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 42:44
  Brian McFadden: news…
• 42:45
  El Guapo: None of shoes.
• 42:48
  Testecleese: If I had more flat land.
• 42:50
  Testecleese: I would probably get some cross-country skis for getting around.
• 42:53
  Testecleese: But, it's so steep, I wouldn't imagine trying to climb up that side.
• 42:59
  Testecleese: just the backyard is too steep to try to go up on skis, you know what I mean?
• 43:07
  Testecleese: One of our, Republican representatives out here,
• 43:13
  El Guapo: a hat.
• 43:14
  Testecleese: Came back to the area and checked out a whole bunch of, like,
• 43:19
  Testecleese: Businesses, et cetera, et cetera, you know, to better represent her constituents.
• 43:23
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 43:27
  Testecleese: Where was it? She went to Envent Manufacturing Facility, they're the ones doing the, power distribution for the data centers that they're building.
• 43:34
  Brian McFadden: Alright.
• 43:35
  Testecleese: And she's like, well, if we're gonna do this, we're gonna need electricians, already trained electricians. We don't want to go have to train a bunch of electricians. We need people that can do this, that, and that, and they're trying to find a way to bring people in to do these jobs.
• 43:51
  Testecleese: Which is it, I found fascinating, because when we came here, there were, like, 15 counties offering tax breaks if you would come here and have a remote job.
• 44:01
  Brian McFadden: Oh, okay.
• 44:02
  Testecleese: Now.
• 44:03
  Brian McFadden: Now I turn it away from remote jobs.
• 44:05
  Testecleese: Oh, not even necessarily get away from it.
• 44:07
  Testecleese: The idea was bring a New York City or a Boston paycheck or Sacramento paycheck to West Virginia.
• 44:16
  Testecleese: West Virginia gets all of the benefits from that, you know what I mean? That idea was to bring money in.
• 44:22
  El Guapo: Now they're saying, if we're actually gonna build this shit, we need people that actually know what the hell they're doing to do this.
• 44:27
  El Guapo: And then she was asked about Trump policy, she's like, I'm not the president, I can't…
• 44:32
  El Guapo: You know what I mean? He's like, I gotta worry about my constituents, not the entire country.
• 44:37
  Testecleese: he's gonna do what he's gonna do, I'm gonna cast my votes, and…
• 44:40
  El Guapo: She didn't talk trash, but didn't exactly come out in full support.
• 44:45
  Testecleese: Right. So, it was either a very political answer, or…
• 44:48
  El Guapo: She was genuinely more worried about taking care of her people.
• 44:52
  El Guapo: You know what I mean?
• 44:54
  El Guapo: So, I don't know if I thought this was good or not, I just…
• 44:58
  El Guapo: It stuck out to me for something to bring up for what happened here in West Virginia.
• 45:02
  El Guapo: And, on the 7th of April.
• 45:05
  El Guapo: Which is, what, January, February, March? Oh, yeah, that was… this is 3 days ago then, right?
• 45:11
  Testecleese: They restocked the, the rivers.
• 45:15
  Testecleese: With trout, because they do a big, rainbow trout tournament every year.
• 45:22
  Testecleese: It's a good time, it's interesting because the wife wants to fish, She's… interested in hunting.
• 45:29
  Testecleese: But there's a dis… you need a license to even catch and release fish here.
• 45:34
  Testecleese: So you can't even just go… yeah. So she's like, alright, well, I need a license. She's like, if I'm gonna get a license and I wanna hunt.
• 45:40
  Testecleese: May as well do them together, you get a discount. So she rushed through the Hunter's education course class, she went through the, NRA.
• 45:48
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 45:50
  Testecleese: Which was free, because she's a… actually, it's free to everyone. No, that's not. To do the NRA one, it's good nationwide.
• 45:55
  Testecleese: I did one local to West Virginia, because I don't give a shit what the hunting laws are in,
• 46:01
  Testecleese: Rochester, New York, you know what I mean?
• 46:04
  Brian McFadden: You should.
• 46:05
  Testecleese: Right? I'm not even gonna try to bring.
• 46:07
  Brian McFadden: Do not hunt. You cannot hunt! Hunting forbidden!
• 46:14
  Testecleese: Well, Massachusetts, you're not allowed to rifle hunt, but you can bow hunt.
• 46:20
  Testecleese: So…
• 46:21
  Brian McFadden: Try to take down a moose with a bow.
• 46:23
  Testecleese: There's not a lot of moose in Massachusetts.
• 46:28
  Testecleese: We allegedly have elk around here, but I've never seen one. No one around here has ever seen one, but we've all seen a frickin' mountain lion, and I swear to God there's no mountain lions here. Like, oh, they pass through sometimes. I was like, pass through? I was like, I'm not on the edge of the state. It's not like they're just cutting through to get somewhere else, you know?
• 46:47
  El Guapo: Mmm.
• 46:48
  Testecleese: They're actually talking about bringing.
• 46:50
  El Guapo: back in.
• 46:50
  Testecleese: to the area, because they're almost gone in the area.
• 46:54
  El Guapo: I don't know if you guys saw the news, but I did find out alligator in a dismal swamp a couple days ago.
• 47:00
  Testecleese: Where's that?
• 47:02
  El Guapo: Hmm.
• 47:02
  Brian McFadden: Virginia.
• 47:03
  El Guapo: Chesapeake, Chesapeake.
• 47:05
  Testecleese: An alligator? That sounds like someone put it there.
• 47:08
  El Guapo: The closest one is, North Carolina, somewhere in North Carolina, there's alligators in there.
• 47:15
  El Guapo: So they probably migrated.
• 47:17
  Testecleese: Possibly, but I mean, can… alligators don't exactly just, like, march across the land to go find another swamp.
• 47:23
  El Guapo: Yeah, but there's a disbel swap right here, so it's kind of like…
• 47:27
  Testecleese: what I'm thinking is someone went to North Carolina and brought an alligator back, because it'd be fun, or funny.
• 47:32
  Testecleese: And then I went, oh shit, and dumped it in the swamp.
• 47:35
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 47:38
  Testecleese: Which, that sucks for that poor alligator, it's gonna die alone.
• 47:41
  El Guapo: Mmm… yeah, whatever, let it be.
• 47:44
  Testecleese: But yeah, anyway, she wants to do the licenses together, so she rushed through her hunter's education course. She's gotta go out tomorrow.
• 47:52
  Testecleese: And it's like a 2-hour drive, like when I did, to take the physical written test in person.
• 47:59
  El Guapo: So she can fish.
• 48:01
  Testecleese: I was like, alright!
• 48:02
  Testecleese: So you don't have any fishing gear.
• 48:05
  Brian McFadden: I'll buy it when she's at Walmart.
• 48:07
  El Guapo: Well, actually, we got.
• 48:09
  Testecleese: The Ace Hardware?
• 48:11
  Testecleese: Has a decent selection, and the, that's where I buy my guns, is Ace Hardware.
• 48:17
  Testecleese: And, there's a Pabst Sports Shop, which is mostly hunting and, bow hunting and fishing.
• 48:24
  Brian McFadden: Did you get a free beer with it when you buy something there?
• 48:27
  El Guapo: Nope.
• 48:27
  Testecleese: Paps as in P-A-P-S.
• 48:30
  Brian McFadden: No, not.
• 48:32
  El Guapo: What?
• 48:34
  Testecleese: And I get she likes to fish.
• 48:36
  Testecleese: And she said she will at least eat one of these trout if she catches one, because she's like, I don't know, you know, your tastes do change, and it is a different fish. She doesn't hate all fish.
• 48:47
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 48:47
  Testecleese: But she knows very little about fishing gear.
• 48:50
  El Guapo: Right. And she just likes the actual, like.
• 48:52
  Testecleese: Let's go fishing, which I get.
• 48:54
  Testecleese: But she's talking about getting a rod with a button… reel.
• 48:59
  Testecleese: You know what I'm talking about, like a little kid used to learn how to fish.
• 49:01
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 49:02
  Testecleese: And I was like, ugh, okay, that's gonna break.
• 49:05
  Testecleese: And she's like, oh, I'm not sure how to use the other one. I was like, oh my god. I was like, alright, well, are you buying rod and reel, like, together, or are you buying them separate? She goes, I don't even know what you're talking about. And her mother was there. I was like, I bet you Tyler buys… she goes, he buys them separate. He buys this rod, that reel, and puts them together, because that's what he wants. I was like, yeah.
• 49:22
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 49:23
  Testecleese: It's like, but that's the difference between someone who's…
• 49:26
  Testecleese: A dedicated fisherman who likes to go out and… Actually catch something to eat?
• 49:31
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 49:32
  Testecleese: Versus, I just want to go out and spend some time on the river and enjoy the nice weather, you know?
• 49:36
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, we're actually going to a VFW, like, it's about a 45-minute drive away from here. They're doing a walleye fish fry tomorrow night.
• 49:44
  Testecleese: Mmm.
• 49:45
  Brian McFadden: So, three of us are gonna go hang out at the VFW for… A little while.
• 49:51
  Testecleese: The town of Pembroke in Massachusetts does a herring fish fry every year.
• 49:58
  Testecleese: There's this offshoot of the river that comes through that's full of herring.
• 50:03
  Testecleese: And, no reels, no nets, no nothing is allowed. You have to catch them with your bare hands.
• 50:09
  Testecleese: Alright. But on Fish… but on Fish Friday.
• 50:11
  El Guapo: They do.
• 50:12
  Testecleese: Like, when they're all running upstream.
• 50:13
  Brian McFadden: Okay. Yeah,
• 50:15
  Testecleese: So they're everywhere, like, you just reach in and grab a fish, and you walk over and you bring it to these grills, you know, that they have built out of stone, and they'll clean it right there and cook it on the spot, and I'm like, this is your tradition!
• 50:30
  Testecleese: I am very happy that Pembroke held on to. Because this is the kind of thing that would freak out a lot of people.
• 50:36
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 50:37
  Testecleese: You know what I mean? Especially in, like, Massachusetts. But it's a small town, and for the most part, people don't move there, they stay there forever.
• 50:44
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 50:45
  Testecleese: They've always had this tradition.
• 50:47
  Testecleese: Well, I mean, you know as well as I, like, could you imagine if you tried to do something like that in, like, Richmond?
• 50:53
  Brian McFadden: Oh, everybody would freak out. PETA would be involved.
• 50:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, you're killing all the fish. He's like, no, we're eating them!
• 51:02
  Testecleese: Fewer and fewer attend every year, but there's still… even when I left, people were still going, and it was exciting, and it was fun. You know, you'd pull up your pants, jump in the river, and just, like a bear, grab a fish.
• 51:13
  Brian McFadden: Excuse me.
• 51:14
  Testecleese: manly, you know what I mean?
• 51:15
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 51:16
  Testecleese: They're like, I got a fish!
• 51:19
  Testecleese: And it was all you could eat.
• 51:21
  Testecleese: If as long as you can go back and get another fish, they would cook it up for you that one day.
• 51:26
  Testecleese: I'm pretty sure you weren't allowed to fish them any other day of the year, that was… it was done as a population control thing to start, and I think that's… now it's necessary because it's been happening so long.
• 51:35
  Testecleese: like, the fish population has adjusted to it, you know what I mean?
• 51:38
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 51:39
  Testecleese: Same thing we were talking about in California, when they, they banned fishing. California waterways.
• 51:45
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 51:45
  Testecleese: And it's like, the fish population's going to explode, because they have adapted
• 51:50
  Testecleese: To fishing, to be able to handle… maintain their population.
• 51:53
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 51:54
  Testecleese: And yeah, they're gonna run out of food, and you're gonna have tons of dead fish floating to the surface and stinkin'.
• 52:03
  Testecleese: Alright, dead fish, dead rats.
• 52:05
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 52:06
  Brian McFadden: Apparently, this Navy… Norfolk Navy sailor says he found a dead rat in his Monster Energy drink.
• 52:15
  El Guapo: Oh my god.
• 52:16
  Testecleese: At first, I was like, how the fuck did a…
• 52:19
  Testecleese: did that happen? And I was like, they had to have built the can around the rat, because they said it wasn't…
• 52:23
  Testecleese: He said it wasn't even a little one. He said it was, like, a full-size big rat.
• 52:27
  El Guapo: You see how cans are made? It's like, how they put the lid on.
• 52:31
  Testecleese: I know, exactly, and they spin them, and it gets hot, and they basically friction weld together.
• 52:35
  El Guapo: No, no, no, no, no. They built a can, and they put the liquids, then they… they put the lid in there, like, there's a machine that could, like, twist them, and I think probably the rat fell in there, and they just can't… Yeah. Yeah.
• 52:49
  Testecleese: Exactly, the can was built around the rat.
• 52:51
  Brian McFadden: He said he's never gonna be able to drink anything he can't see again.
• 52:55
  Testecleese: Well, no, see, that's terrible, because let's be real, Monster Energy Drink was my lifeblood my entire time in the Navy.
• 53:03
  El Guapo: Bring, so the bottles are out of glass containers, you know?
• 53:07
  Brian McFadden: And he actually went to the emergency room with the Monster Energy ring and showed it to him, so it's not like a fake report.
• 53:15
  Testecleese: Yeah, he said as soon… because he said, like, he finished his drink.
• 53:18
  El Guapo: Is it the monster, or the green monsters?
• 53:22
  Brian McFadden: Blue.
• 53:24
  El Guapo: Yeah, I drink it.
• 53:25
  Testecleese: green ones.
• 53:26
  El Guapo: I like the coffee ones.
• 53:28
  Brian McFadden: This was the regular Monster drink, low carb.
• 53:31
  Testecleese: I drank the big green one, the BFC.
• 53:34
  El Guapo: I cannot do that because of the guy, and when I was in the Middle East, this guy is skinny as hell.
• 53:42
  El Guapo: He drink one mustard every day, he end up with a heart attack, and I touched that shit ever since.
• 53:47
  Testecleese: Well, I only drank Monster when I was in the Navy.
• 53:51
  El Guapo: No.
• 53:52
  Testecleese: And that was because I was, you know, working up to 20-hour days sometimes, you know what I mean?
• 53:56
  El Guapo: Yeah, yeah, no, no, but this guy, he's… he was… we're in the desert already. Yeah.
• 54:01
  Testecleese: I get ya.
• 54:01
  El Guapo: He's skinny as hell, instead of drinking, like, water, and a monster, or coffee, no, just a monster.
• 54:08
  El Guapo: And he ended up with a heart attack, like, yeah, I don't want to be in a position, you know?
• 54:13
  Testecleese: You don't want any caffeine in a situation like that, because it's a diuretic, and it pushes the water out of your body.
• 54:19
  El Guapo: Yeah, and he…
• 54:21
  Testecleese: Like, alcohol.
• 54:21
  El Guapo: Yeah, he barely drank… like, now he's a fucking chef. He sent me a first request the other day, about a fact, and I was looking through the pictures, like, doing, like, cooking stuff, like, oh shit, he's a chef now, you know?
• 54:32
  El Guapo: He went for aviation to be a chef. That's crazy.
• 54:37
  Testecleese: It's funny, I actually just made fun of someone in a game I play.
• 54:40
  Testecleese: Because we were all talking about food, and the way we like to prepare certain foods, and she's like, it's crazy listening to a bunch of men talk about food. It's usually women doing the cooking, and I said, well, that's because we let women cook, and she's like, excuse me? I was like, name a famous chef.
• 54:58
  Testecleese: And she's like… and I was like, okay, that still cooks. I was like, Julia Child doesn't count, she's dead. Montha Stewart doesn't cook, except for, like, pot brownies now with Snoop Dogg.
• 55:08
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 55:09
  Testecleese: Rachel Ray doesn't even cook anymore.
• 55:12
  Testecleese: She's not famous for cooking anymore, she's doing, like, a baby line or something, right?
• 55:16
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 55:17
  Testecleese: But, like, Emeril Lagasse, and who's the, Hell's Kitchen guy?
• 55:23
  Brian McFadden: Oh, recording range?
• 55:25
  Testecleese: Gordon Ramsay, yeah, and this…
• 55:27
  Testecleese: And yeah, all these different chefs, and plus, let's be real, any, like, gourmet restaurant, who's cooking?
• 55:34
  El Guapo: The guy.
• 55:37
  Testecleese: Almost always, it's a man in charge, which…
• 55:39
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 55:40
  Testecleese: You can say that's sexist if you want, but…
• 55:42
  El Guapo: But, all the time…
• 55:43
  Testecleese: Women are so much better at cooking, then why aren't they taking over this market?
• 55:49
  El Guapo: I just gotta keep my mouth shut.
• 55:53
  Testecleese: There's also a difference between cooking, you know.
• 55:56
  El Guapo: For love, you know.
• 55:57
  Testecleese: Lam.
• 55:58
  El Guapo: Okay, okay, the thing about men and female, women kick for love?
• 56:03
  El Guapo: Man, cook for perfection and just want to be good at it, just, like, be the best at competition and stuff, you know?
• 56:10
  Testecleese: Oh yeah, oh, every time I cook, it's gonna be better than the last time I made the same dish. You know what I mean?
• 56:17
  Testecleese: Like, even spaghetti, when I do spaghetti, I'm like, there was a little too much oregano and not enough garlic last time, you know?
• 56:24
  Testecleese: Or I need a little more rosemary in there.
• 56:30
  Testecleese: Versus measure this much of this, measure that much of that, dump it in, you know. Recipes versus cooking, you know what I mean?
• 56:36
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 56:37
  Testecleese: I will say the wife's pretty good about…
• 56:40
  Testecleese: cooking instead of following a recipe. She'll follow the recipe most of the part, but they're like, no, no, no, we need more of this, or we don't need this at all.
• 56:47
  El Guapo: I used to make a joke about my ex, like, hey, we should put a grill in my kitchen. No, that's dangerous, that's right. Grilling is dangerous, that's why men do it.
• 56:59
  Brian McFadden: So, I'm kinda glad that I'm leaving the state of Virginia.
• 57:04
  Testecleese: Leaving, you already left.
• 57:06
  Brian McFadden: Yep, yep. I'm still in the process. I don't have a Michigan driver's license yet.
• 57:11
  Testecleese: You can't change your taxes… oh, that means you can't change your taxes yet either, then, huh?
• 57:15
  El Guapo: Mmm.
• 57:15
  Brian McFadden: Well, technically, I mean, by the time, by the time I…
• 57:18
  El Guapo: You govern it right now, this is, the… what's the name of that witch?
• 57:22
  Brian McFadden: Whitmer!
• 57:23
  El Guapo: Whoover.
• 57:24
  Testecleese: Oh, I thought.
• 57:25
  Brian McFadden: That's a better way out.
• 57:25
  Testecleese: And burger.
• 57:26
  El Guapo: No!
• 57:27
  Testecleese: Burger.
• 57:28
  El Guapo: I got a fucking live bit, which…
• 57:31
  Brian McFadden: And shock, shock, people aren't impressed with her.
• 57:34
  El Guapo: I know…
• 57:36
  Brian McFadden: Everybody believe your lies!
• 57:39
  Testecleese: Aren't they.
• 57:39
  El Guapo: One of the states.
• 57:40
  Testecleese: That's now talking about, an exit tax?
• 57:44
  Brian McFadden: Michigan? Or Virginia? No, I don't think so.
• 57:47
  El Guapo: No, that's California.
• 57:49
  Testecleese: There's a… Massachusetts wants to do it, too.
• 57:52
  Testecleese: And New York City, New York wants to do it because all the wealthy people are fleeing because of the taxes. They want to tax you on the way out. California wants to continue to tax you after you move out.
• 58:02
  El Guapo: Not just because you left. That's not gonna fly.
• 58:05
  Testecleese: No, there's no way, I meant.
• 58:06
  Brian McFadden: I feel like the Supreme Court's gonna get involved with that if too many of these states try that.
• 58:11
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 58:12
  Testecleese: Yeah, you can't tax me because I'm moving out of your state because you tax me too much.
• 58:16
  Testecleese: Like, I have freedom of movement, don't I?
• 58:19
  Brian McFadden: You should, yeah, I mean… And then she went to, the, they have a…
• 58:26
  Brian McFadden: I have a AAA… I think it might… I don't even know if it's AAA, it might be AA baseball. Is it AA?
• 58:32
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 58:32
  Brian McFadden: in Richmond, because Norfolk has a AAA team, and she got booed at the… at the baseball game.
• 58:39
  El Guapo: Yes. This is in Richmond. Yeah.
• 58:42
  Testecleese: Enrichment. That's because she swore she was gonna reduce costs, and she increased every single tax, and… But she also said…
• 58:50
  Brian McFadden: She was gonna govern as a moderate.
• 58:52
  El Guapo: No.
• 58:53
  El Guapo: What's going on? What's going on?
• 58:54
  Brian McFadden: She did the exact opposite. She went as left-wing as she possibly could.
• 58:58
  El Guapo: What's going on? It's Luis Lucas that's controlling her hair, and then, the, the, the… I forgot the other guy.
• 59:08
  El Guapo: But they're controlling her, and right now, the fucking… Luis Lucas pissed off with Northern Richmond, that's why she told Spangler to disapprove the fucking casino scene in Alexandria.
• 59:20
  El Guapo: a Roanoke, or whatever it is up.
• 59:21
  Brian McFadden: No, it was no, it was Fairfax County.
• 59:23
  El Guapo: Yeah, Fairfax County.
• 59:26
  Testecleese: That's a big issue they're having, actually. Did you look at this new map they're proposing with the redistricting thing?
• 59:35
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it's a shitshow. I mean, basically…
• 59:38
  Testecleese: Alexandria has 5 districts in it.
• 59:41
  El Guapo: Right. And.
• 59:42
  Brian McFadden: No gerrymandering here.
• 59:44
  Testecleese: groups, and brought them up to a point where it's dense in Democrats, so the Democrats would overwhelm all of the Republicans.
• 59:50
  El Guapo: But at the same time, it's affecting black community. Black communities feel like, oh, what the hell are you doing here? So it's gonna backfire them. I think it's gonna backfire.
• 59:57
  Brian McFadden: And I love, I mean, I still have a DVR in Norfolk, so I watch a lot of shows through the app on my phone, and I'm tired of seeing Obama on the TV telling me I should.
• 1:00:09
  Testecleese: Obama.
• 1:00:10
  Brian McFadden: I should be voting for yes on prop on April 21st.
• 1:00:14
  Testecleese: They're actually… they're flat-out lying, though. They're saying that this will stop…
• 1:00:18
  Brian McFadden: And when I went and voted, it was very confusing on the ballot itself. You know, it was like…
• 1:00:24
  El Guapo: It wasn't clearly said, hey.
• 1:00:26
  Brian McFadden: this or this, you know? It was… it was very…
• 1:00:30
  Brian McFadden: It was poorly worded on purpose, so it would confuse the average voter.
• 1:00:35
  Testecleese: Well, yeah. Not even.
• 1:00:38
  Testecleese: Not even that, like, the commercials are confusing. They're saying that we need to stop the gerrymandering, so we'll vote yes on this, which would allow them to gerrymander.
• 1:00:46
  Brian McFadden: Yes.
• 1:00:47
  El Guapo: Exactly.
• 1:00:48
  Testecleese: And they're making it sound like this is gonna stop it, and I was like, no, this is just going to make it more. And like I said, Alexandria, one city has one greater area of the city, you know.
• 1:00:59
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 1:01:00
  Testecleese: suburbs are still considered that city, you know what I mean?
• 1:01:03
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:01:05
  Testecleese: Just like Quincy is considered Greater Boston.
• 1:01:10
  Testecleese: 5 districts!
• 1:01:13
  Testecleese: That's insane!
• 1:01:15
  Testecleese: Have you seen the map as it is now, when they got together last time and did it, as, like, a…
• 1:01:20
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, with our independent commission, yeah.
• 1:01:24
  Testecleese: Yeah, it actually looks good.
• 1:01:26
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it makes a lot more sense. It's like…
• 1:01:29
  Brian McFadden: there's still more Dems, but it's more evenly divided up. It's like…
• 1:01:34
  Testecleese: You could get a.
• 1:01:35
  Brian McFadden: 5 or something like that, you know.
• 1:01:37
  Testecleese: Yeah, but you could get a Republican governor.
• 1:01:42
  Testecleese: And let's be real, why doesn't…
• 1:01:44
  Testecleese: The left keeps talking about the popular vote every time they don't win the…
• 1:01:49
  Testecleese: Whatever, why don't they just do the cast…
• 1:01:51
  Testecleese: the states can do however they want. Why don't they just collect the popular vote and cast all their votes that way?
• 1:02:02
  Testecleese: Why not? Because there's more Republicans than these people realize, or want to admit.
• 1:02:08
  Testecleese: Because if you're certain everyone agrees with you, just say, alright, we're just taking the popular vote, and we're gonna cast all of our electoral college votes.
• 1:02:15
  Testecleese: That way.
• 1:02:17
  Testecleese: There's several… only a handful of states split their vote, right?
• 1:02:20
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:02:21
  Testecleese: like, Maine, like, New Mexico, or Arizona?
• 1:02:24
  Testecleese: You know, a couple.
• 1:02:26
  Brian McFadden: And Nebraska, I think… Or Iowa…
• 1:02:30
  Testecleese: vote.
• 1:02:31
  Brian McFadden: As, like, the city, the capital city has their own electoral vote.
• 1:02:38
  Testecleese: Okay, well that… if that… that's interesting.
• 1:02:40
  Testecleese: That's very interesting.
• 1:02:42
  Testecleese: But the states can do that.
• 1:02:44
  Testecleese: That's the thing, is they're complaining about this stuff, and it's like, this is a state issue on how to cast their votes.
• 1:02:52
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:02:54
  Brian McFadden: And Ray should be very excited about, his new pay raise that's coming in next year.
• 1:03:00
  Testecleese: No, he's not. No, he should be pissed off because someone else is gonna get paid more money.
• 1:03:04
  Testecleese: Who does less work than them, and his paycheck's gonna stay the same.
• 1:03:08
  El Guapo: No, it's always backfired, they're gonna get cut off, get fired.
• 1:03:14
  El Guapo: So the rest.
• 1:03:14
  Brian McFadden: I mean, I know I put an article in here about California, yeah, it's coming up. We talked about it a little bit last week, but another franchisee is complaining about California's $20 minimum wage.
• 1:03:24
  El Guapo: Yeah, it did fire a lot of people, and it's just… it's not gonna affect the rest of us. What was, the… I'm sorry, it wasn't the…
• 1:03:33
  Testecleese: No, the problem is…
• 1:03:34
  El Guapo: Not for the minimum wage, it was the freaking, food service workers.
• 1:03:39
  Testecleese: California, yes.
• 1:03:40
  El Guapo: Yes.
• 1:03:40
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, the minimum wage for food service workers was $20 an hour.
• 1:03:44
  Testecleese: They're talking about making it 30 in California, but…
• 1:03:47
  El Guapo: Yeah, so… and whenever they… But that's the thing is, why…
• 1:03:50
  Testecleese: You're a welder, you're a plumber, you're a truck driver, like, you do actual work. The motherfucker making your Whopper gets paid more than you?
• 1:04:00
  Testecleese: What the… or as much as you.
• 1:04:03
  El Guapo: What the heck?
• 1:04:03
  Testecleese: Ow!
• 1:04:04
  El Guapo: Is that gonna affect too much, because people are gonna get fired? They're gonna get replaced with rubble?
• 1:04:10
  Testecleese: But here's what you do.
• 1:04:11
  Testecleese: is you, the guy with skills, and can follow orders, says, shit, I can make as much money flipping burgers at McDonald's…
• 1:04:21
  Brian McFadden: I'm gonna go take theirs.
• 1:04:21
  Testecleese: jobs. You're gonna take their job, because it's less dangerous, it's easier to do, less stress, you don't have to get up
• 1:04:28
  Testecleese: stupid early.
• 1:04:31
  Testecleese: You know what I mean? You'll take… the skilled workers will take their jobs because they can actually work, and then you have no skilled labor. So then the cost of skilled labor's gonna go up until the skilled workers go back to work in their skills, and all you did was raise the floor, so now more people are in poverty because they can't get any work.
• 1:04:51
  Testecleese: When you could get the occasional gig job here or there, you could at least pay your bills, but now that you've raised… you've raised the floor.
• 1:04:58
  Testecleese: You know, rising tide, lifts all ships. None of it's fucking anchored to the ocean floor. The ocean just comes up above the ship, right?
• 1:05:10
  Testecleese: And this is something I don't understand why these people don't… don't get. And I… I swear they do, I swear they do know this, but your average person who votes goes, more money sounds great.
• 1:05:21
  Testecleese: And these folks know that it's gonna make shit worse, and they could run on it again next time.
• 1:05:26
  Testecleese: To raise the minimum wage again.
• 1:05:30
  El Guapo: And then it comes to the point where…
• 1:05:32
  Testecleese: Again, it comes to the point where minimum wage makes as much money as your master…
• 1:05:38
  Brian McFadden: Why stop at $15? Why not go $50 an hour?
• 1:05:41
  Testecleese: Why not 75?
• 1:05:45
  Testecleese: You know, and…
• 1:05:48
  Testecleese: It's… it's just ridiculous. But yeah, we'll definitely get into California doing the same, same thing in a minute.
• 1:05:55
  Testecleese: And this is fascinating.
• 1:05:59
  Testecleese: Taxes just went up on literally everything, to include a new tax on electric cars in Virginia.
• 1:06:06
  Testecleese: Now Dominion Power's saying, we're being regulated to the point where we can't afford to do this, we need to raise prices of energy.
• 1:06:14
  Testecleese: So not only did you get an extra tax on your electric bill, but now your electric bill is going to go up.
• 1:06:20
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:06:21
  Testecleese: And, let's be real, you need to charge that electric car, don't ya?
• 1:06:26
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:06:28
  Testecleese: Which is something that bothers me a little bit.
• 1:06:31
  Testecleese: These places that'll put, like, electric
• 1:06:34
  Testecleese: Charges out, like, these condos and stuff that have electric charging ports where it's free to charge your car.
• 1:06:40
  Testecleese: All I can think is, why don't you fill my gas tank?
• 1:06:43
  Testecleese: for free.
• 1:06:45
  Testecleese: Oh, it's electricity. Yes! Everyone in this condo complex is paying for electricity. I am literally paying to fuel your vehicle if I live in a condo, you know what I mean?
• 1:06:55
  Testecleese: Why aren't you putting gas in my tank, too?
• 1:06:58
  Testecleese: Yeah. Because, you know, oh, you should just buy electric. Well…
• 1:07:02
  Testecleese: I actually need a diesel truck, because I haul backhoes, you know what I mean? To and from a job site kind of thing, you know?
• 1:07:11
  Testecleese: And let's be real, an electric… well, they tried electric big rigs, didn't they, Guapo?
• 1:07:18
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, Tesla was making some.
• 1:07:20
  El Guapo: Yeah, but…
• 1:07:22
  Testecleese: They lasted, like, 80 miles or something stupid before they needed to charge for, like, 10 hours.
• 1:07:26
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:07:27
  El Guapo: There's too… the body's too heavy.
• 1:07:30
  El Guapo: For the low capacity… Yeah, we try…
• 1:07:32
  Testecleese: You're trying to pull 20 tons on an electric motor.
• 1:07:35
  El Guapo: Dude, fuck it, Elon Musk needs to get into a vehicle with an alternative fuel system.
• 1:07:42
  El Guapo: Hydrogen, stuff like that. Propane. I'm sure he can pull it off. Propane, something. I'm sure he can pull it off.
• 1:07:49
  Testecleese: No, propane… propane engines exist.
• 1:07:52
  El Guapo: Yeah, but it's a byproduct of petroleum, but hydrogen, you can just get it out of the air.
• 1:07:57
  Testecleese: No, you can't.
• 1:08:00
  El Guapo: Actually, H2O.
• 1:08:03
  Testecleese: You could separate water molecules, yeah, and get hydrogen and oxygen, but then what happens to the water? Now, the idea, the idea is run it on hydrogen, right? By splitting water molecules through electrolysis. So then you have the exact perfect mixture of oxygen and hydrogen.
• 1:08:21
  Testecleese: To come back together, and your exhaust is pure water.
• 1:08:25
  Testecleese: Which you could then split again.
• 1:08:28
  Testecleese: That's the theory that would work.
• 1:08:31
  Testecleese: But… I don't know what, some guy in the 70s allegedly made a car that ran on water.
• 1:08:36
  Testecleese: And, like, he shot himself in the back of the head, like, 7 times or something.
• 1:08:40
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yes, he did, the petroleum industry won't put up with that kind of shit.
• 1:08:45
  Testecleese: I think it's the, the Inner Earth lizard people.
• 1:08:48
  Brian McFadden: I think…
• 1:08:50
  Testecleese: I think they don't want us to get this technology, because if we go too far, too fast, we might catch up to them and discover them, and it won't be their slave labor.
• 1:08:58
  Brian McFadden: Right, right.
• 1:09:00
  Testecleese: That's why they put Nancy Pelosi in the Senate.
• 1:09:04
  Brian McFadden: She's in the House of Representatives.
• 1:09:06
  El Guapo: Whatever. Choose the Speaker of the House for two terms.
• 1:09:11
  Brian McFadden: More than two?
• 1:09:14
  Testecleese: Oh, I was thinking… I was thinking Feinstein. I don't know why I always confuse those two.
• 1:09:18
  El Guapo: Well, they're both, yeah.
• 1:09:19
  Brian McFadden: They're both older from California.
• 1:09:21
  Testecleese: They're both oxygenary and calories.
• 1:09:23
  El Guapo: You know who Pelosi's nephew… nephew is?
• 1:09:27
  Testecleese: Awesome.
• 1:09:28
  El Guapo: Muslim.
• 1:09:29
  Testecleese: a news…
• 1:09:30
  El Guapo: That's why.
• 1:09:32
  Brian McFadden: So, we got this 17-year-old that was killed in a shooting at Deep Creek, was a high school student.
• 1:09:37
  El Guapo: Yeah, I think it's game-related. That's all I wanted to say about that.
• 1:09:40
  Brian McFadden: Alright.
• 1:09:41
  El Guapo: Because… why a 17-year-old get killed can relate, related. And a Hispanic guy…
• 1:09:48
  El Guapo: I think it's a Spanish guy, yeah.
• 1:09:50
  Testecleese: He's actually gonna… yeah, Martinez Rodriguez. Kenny Martinez Rodriguez was shot and killed in Depp Creek. I do want to put this out, though, that, it was… looks like it might have been a drive-by, he was shot in the head.
• 1:10:04
  Testecleese: It… the police are looking for information.
• 1:10:08
  Testecleese: What's it, gray SUV, I think?
• 1:10:12
  Testecleese: Jeez. See, this is… yeah, last seen in a gray SUV leaving the area at the time. Police say the suspects are unknown. Chesapeake police are continuing to investigate the shooting. They're asking for anyone with information.
• 1:10:26
  Testecleese: To please bring it forward?
• 1:10:28
  Testecleese: It looks like this is gonna go nowhere, so… We do have some Virginia listeners, if you know anything about this, it's not okay to friggin'…
• 1:10:35
  Testecleese: Kill 17-year-olds.
• 1:10:38
  Testecleese: Like, that's messed up.
• 1:10:43
  Testecleese: Alright, that being said…
• 1:10:48
  Testecleese: This article you shared, I'm wondering if it's the video I saw.
• 1:10:53
  Brian McFadden: Right, I don't probably… I mean, there's a show, I can't remember what it was on, what it was on, it might have been on Apple TV.
• 1:11:00
  Brian McFadden: Where it was in… it was based in California, and this guy always kicked.
• 1:11:07
  Brian McFadden: The… the delivery robots.
• 1:11:10
  Testecleese: as the video I saw, it wasn't from a TV show, but it was this guy cussing out and kicking the…
• 1:11:16
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:11:16
  Testecleese: Beats Delivery Robot, and he's screaming at the thing, like.
• 1:11:20
  Testecleese: I was screaming at it, because it's like, please push the cross button. He's like, it says you can cross, I'm not pushing the button for you, fuck you!
• 1:11:28
  Brian McFadden: I'm like… Yeah, I mean, these robots just got released in Philadelphia, and they're using the sidewalks, and people walking on the sidewalks are not fans of these things.
• 1:11:43
  Testecleese: Then stop ordering food with them!
• 1:11:47
  Testecleese: That's what it comes down to, stop using them!
• 1:11:50
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 1:11:51
  Testecleese: And I feel bad for the poor guy who's waiting for his food to show up that came cold and terrible, because…
• 1:11:56
  Brian McFadden: Because it got flipped upside down, you know, the food's all messed up.
• 1:12:01
  Testecleese: Man, you already paid for that shit!
• 1:12:05
  Testecleese: Basically, I'm not pushing the button. No, you're gonna sit here, fuck you. And I was like, wow, dude, you're losing your mind over a robot.
• 1:12:12
  Testecleese: I was like, it's not even, like, trying to kill you, it's just delivering food to someone else who ordered it.
• 1:12:18
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:12:19
  Testecleese: And here's the thing, this dude could offer to do it for the same amount of money that the Uber, the robot gets paid. But he doesn't.
• 1:12:26
  Brian McFadden: Everyone's not getting paid anything!
• 1:12:28
  Testecleese: Somebody owns it.
• 1:12:29
  Brian McFadden: Overeats!
• 1:12:31
  El Guapo: Try to get a jet.
• 1:12:34
  Testecleese: A jet?
• 1:12:35
  El Guapo: Not yet. Not yet. The robber's not trying to kill us yet.
• 1:12:40
  Testecleese: Oh, yes, yet, yet. Yet, well, no.
• 1:12:44
  Testecleese: Did you watch Terminator? That date has come and gone.
• 1:12:49
  El Guapo: dash…
• 1:12:53
  Testecleese: Skynet, when the Skynet…
• 1:12:54
  El Guapo: Yeah, because…
• 1:12:55
  Testecleese: self-aware.
• 1:12:56
  El Guapo: Somebody got the date wrong.
• 1:12:59
  Brian McFadden: It happens.
• 1:13:01
  Testecleese: Oh god, I think you shared this, Brian, and this… this disgusts me to no end.
• 1:13:06
  Brian McFadden: I did share this!
• 1:13:09
  Testecleese: No, no, and… and instead of.
• 1:13:11
  Brian McFadden: Go Tim Walls! Go Tim Walls!
• 1:13:13
  El Guapo: Cupid.
• 1:13:14
  Testecleese: That is…
• 1:13:14
  El Guapo: Let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it, then.
• 1:13:19
  El Guapo: Or maybe there.
• 1:13:19
  Testecleese: You have to, because instead of dealing with the fraud and the shit.
• 1:13:24
  Testecleese: Well, they just had, a sixth member of this one family pled guilty to $14 million in, a food fraud case in Minnesota.
• 1:13:33
  Testecleese: Instead of dealing with this shit in a timely manner, they're fucking opening bathhouses where you can have a fucking orgy.
• 1:13:40
  El Guapo: In Minnesota?
• 1:13:42
  El Guapo: God.
• 1:13:43
  Brian McFadden: Exactly. They're gonna legalize adult bathhouses.
• 1:13:47
  El Guapo: And what is adult bathhouses? Like, I've been looking for bathhouses, like, you can just, you know…
• 1:13:52
  El Guapo: It's a steam room with a bunch.
• 1:13:54
  Brian McFadden: Well, it's a, Norwegian tradition, you know, bathhouses.
• 1:14:00
  Brian McFadden: And, so they're gonna open up some, like…
• 1:14:03
  El Guapo: Reset? Oh, just…
• 1:14:05
  Brian McFadden: No, everybody's in there! It's gonna be orgy sex!
• 1:14:08
  El Guapo: Oh, it's a fuckin', he didn't… like a… it's like a…
• 1:14:13
  El Guapo: what's the word I'm looking for? New this colony type of deal, but with.
• 1:14:17
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:14:18
  El Guapo: Awesome.
• 1:14:18
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:14:19
  El Guapo: And usually now the most sexy people go there, usually it's… A bunch of dudes!
• 1:14:26
  El Guapo: Yeah…
• 1:14:31
  Brian McFadden: And then ICE raids have caused an enrollment to drop, now districts are paying the price.
• 1:14:38
  Brian McFadden: In Massachusetts.
• 1:14:40
  El Guapo: Oh, Massachusetts? Yeah.
• 1:14:41
  Testecleese: This is fascinating.
• 1:14:44
  Testecleese: I thought this was great,
• 1:14:48
  Testecleese: These districts are… are paying too much money into the high school education system.
• 1:14:56
  Testecleese: Because ICE is deporting illegal immigrants.
• 1:15:00
  Testecleese: And they're, they're like, oh, we can't, we're paying too many people to do stuff. It's like, oh, so…
• 1:15:05
  Testecleese: I'm just curious, how do these kids get in school?
• 1:15:10
  Brian McFadden: Don't they have that papers to get in school?
• 1:15:12
  Testecleese: I… I… I sw… I thought you had to… I had to anyway, with my daughters, I had to provide paperwork.
• 1:15:21
  Testecleese: It's something to say he's a kid, you know what I mean? That can go in the records.
• 1:15:26
  Testecleese: If you come in here illegally, you don't have…
• 1:15:29
  Testecleese: A birth certificate, or even… or even a driver's license!
• 1:15:33
  Testecleese: To say, I have a child coming in.
• 1:15:38
  Testecleese: But yeah, it turns out Massachusetts has been paying all this money into translators, and teaching people English, and…
• 1:15:44
  Testecleese: All this other stuff.
• 1:15:47
  Testecleese: And now they're upset, like, well, we can't afford to keep covering this because no one's going to the school.
• 1:15:54
  Testecleese: It's like…
• 1:15:56
  Testecleese: And that's what gets me again, is how are these folks… how are they paying taxes to pay into the system to support this?
• 1:16:02
  Brian McFadden: or not.
• 1:16:04
  Testecleese: Then what's the issue? Now you just hired… now you just have a bunch of people who have no work to do.
• 1:16:08
  El Guapo: It's not like…
• 1:16:09
  Testecleese: You still have the same fucking budget, right?
• 1:16:14
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:16:15
  Testecleese: So what, they're just upset these people have nothing to do? Well, then fucking fire them!
• 1:16:19
  Brian McFadden: Lay him off!
• 1:16:22
  Testecleese: Yeah, don't worry, next time we let 20 million, people in here illegally, we'll hire you back immediately, right? Right.
• 1:16:29
  Testecleese: But yeah, oh my god. They're making it sound like ICE is ruining everything by making sure the taxpayers are only paying for,
• 1:16:36
  Testecleese: You know, their own citizens.
• 1:16:40
  El Guapo: Jesus Christ.
• 1:16:42
  Testecleese: I don't understand how the hell your frickin' keyboard is so loud. Is your computer as old as I am?
• 1:16:47
  Brian McFadden: Yes, it is.
• 1:16:48
  El Guapo: No, this is, my little man.
• 1:16:50
  Testecleese: Brian's always typing away doing shit, and I never hear his keyboard.
• 1:16:54
  El Guapo: No, I just… I like to hit the clicking. Anyways…
• 1:16:57
  Brian McFadden: He likes to hear the clicking!
• 1:17:00
  El Guapo: It's a, it's a.
• 1:17:00
  Testecleese: Oh, I see it!
• 1:17:02
  El Guapo: You know what? You're lucky I didn't get a fucking old typewriter keyboard, because I really would love to get one of those.
• 1:17:12
  El Guapo: Anyways… Those teachers, like,
• 1:17:17
  El Guapo: ESL, English Senior Language Teachers, and stuff like that? Yeah.
• 1:17:22
  El Guapo: Damn, I forgot what I was going with there.
• 1:17:27
  Testecleese: Oh, that happens to the best of us, dude.
• 1:17:29
  El Guapo: I don't know. Lose a thought. You, you fucked me up with the keyboard, so I'm about to say something about it.
• 1:17:35
  Testecleese: Well, you keep fucking me up with the keyboard, I'm in the middle of a thought, and all I can hear is you typing away about how big your dick is.
• 1:17:40
  Testecleese: Some friggin'…
• 1:17:43
  El Guapo: I actually did talk about Surviving Friday, like, a bucket Friday in here and stuff, you know?
• 1:17:49
  El Guapo: You guys are in the fu- in the pa- in the… in the fu- I'm in the future, you guys are in the…
• 1:17:54
  El Guapo: Not to be pressing, you know? You steal the same timeline.
• 1:17:58
  Testecleese: I'm in the same time zone as you.
• 1:17:59
  El Guapo: Jeffrey… I mean, Jeffrey. Brian's a different timeline.
• 1:18:03
  Brian McFadden: No, I'm not, I'm in the same time zone.
• 1:18:04
  El Guapo: Are you serious? What the fuck?
• 1:18:05
  Brian McFadden: Yep, I'm still East Coast time here.
• 1:18:07
  El Guapo: Damn, yeah.
• 1:18:08
  Brian McFadden: It's really weird, because the sun don't come up until, like, 7 in the morning.
• 1:18:12
  El Guapo: Mmm…
• 1:18:13
  Testecleese: Yeah, but it probably stays, well, further north, but it probably still stays up to close 8pm.
• 1:18:17
  Brian McFadden: It does, it does, yeah.
• 1:18:19
  El Guapo: Mmm… Oh, yeah. Which is, which is…
• 1:18:23
  Testecleese: Nice getting all that daylight.
• 1:18:24
  El Guapo: Yeah, like, okay, ESL, English chicken language.
• 1:18:28
  El Guapo: Fuck them. You know what?
• 1:18:30
  El Guapo: They want to protect the jobs?
• 1:18:34
  El Guapo: Before they got nothing else to do. I'm sorry, that's… how is that sustainable?
• 1:18:39
  Testecleese: I think it could go mouse.
• 1:18:40
  El Guapo: Yeah, how's that sustainable? You have to realize this is not sustainable.
• 1:18:44
  Testecleese: You're literally hiring people just to pay them.
• 1:18:46
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:18:48
  Testecleese: It was like, all this money could have fixed the potholes. We could have reduced the gasoline tax. We could have reduced homeowners' taxes.
• 1:18:55
  El Guapo: Instead, you went and hired a bunch of fucking people.
• 1:18:58
  Testecleese: That have no job to do.
• 1:19:00
  El Guapo: If fuck… if fuckin' Trump gets superiority, like, you maintain the House and the Senate after this.
• 1:19:06
  Testecleese: He's gonna lose the house.
• 1:19:07
  El Guapo: Anyways, when I say…
• 1:19:10
  El Guapo: He needs to separate fucking, what is the name of those fucking guys? Tsa agents.
• 1:19:19
  El Guapo: to the airport, like, get… the airport paid for the fucking TSA agents.
• 1:19:23
  El Guapo: And again.
• 1:19:24
  Testecleese: Private security that has a federal standard.
• 1:19:26
  El Guapo: Yes. Indigo.
• 1:19:28
  Testecleese: You must have this if you're gonna run an airport.
• 1:19:30
  El Guapo: It's up to you.
• 1:19:31
  Testecleese: to do it, and here are the standards you must meet.
• 1:19:33
  El Guapo: schools.
• 1:19:34
  Testecleese: Just like me getting a plumber's license, right?
• 1:19:37
  El Guapo: Yeah, but you did get, like, at least 10% from the federal, there's not.
• 1:19:41
  Testecleese: Oh, we could help you a little bit, yeah.
• 1:19:42
  El Guapo: Yeah. But I said, like, for a paycheck, you know, and this is gonna happen again. This is fucking bullshit, dude. I knew when the shit hap… when all the fellow, like, TSA came together and stuff like that, like, they came out with their own, like.
• 1:19:57
  El Guapo: It's gonna be a mess.
• 1:19:59
  Testecleese: Yeah, when it got rolled into Homeland Security.
• 1:20:01
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:20:02
  Testecleese: And that was after 9-11, right?
• 1:20:03
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:20:04
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:20:06
  Testecleese: I mean, and no, at the time, we all wanted it at the time.
• 1:20:10
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:20:11
  El Guapo: Nope.
• 1:20:11
  Testecleese: But he saw what was coming, did we?
• 1:20:14
  El Guapo: No.
• 1:20:15
  Testecleese: We learned a lot of lessons from that, didn't we?
• 1:20:18
  El Guapo: Yeah, and it's a guy, I don't know if you heard the video about this 9-11 thing.
• 1:20:23
  El Guapo: I saw the guy with the suit, but the shoes were, like, dirty and stuff, it was a little bit.
• 1:20:28
  Brian McFadden: Were they shoe bomber shoes?
• 1:20:30
  El Guapo: No, no, no, it was, the shoes were dirty, but the suit was clean.
• 1:20:34
  El Guapo: You know, it's like, it didn't count, it didn't, like, okay…
• 1:20:38
  El Guapo: Hey, I'm sorry you had to fucking discriminate. That shit doesn't look accordingly, like, hey, let me talk to you about it, like, why is she just a dirty?
• 1:20:48
  El Guapo: You know, just have a conversation, you know? Doesn't mean you have to, like.
• 1:20:52
  El Guapo: You know, but it would have prevented that shit, you know, one of the planes.
• 1:20:55
  Testecleese: Yes, give discretion instead of universal checks. Problem is, as soon as you give discretion, someone's gonna claim it's racist, if not.
• 1:21:03
  El Guapo: No, no, no, no, okay, okay, he had a clean suit, like a fucking suit.
• 1:21:07
  Testecleese: Nope.
• 1:21:07
  El Guapo: And the shoes were dirty, you know, like…
• 1:21:10
  El Guapo: And you could be like, you could be like, hey, dude, what's going on with the shoes, dude? You need… do you need me to polish your shoes? I gotta polish your stuff. You just have a conversation. See where that take lead you, you know? Right.
• 1:21:20
  Testecleese: I know, I get it.
• 1:21:21
  El Guapo: Top of shirt?
• 1:21:22
  Testecleese: aggression.
• 1:21:22
  El Guapo: Is Tucker's shirts?
• 1:21:24
  El Guapo: In New York City, it was, it's completely, people think, oh, you're gonna stop your searches. No. They have a conversation. They have a conversation.
• 1:21:32
  Testecleese: risk.
• 1:21:33
  El Guapo: No, yeah, stop or freeze. What it is, is like, hey, where you going? Where you coming from? And that shit doesn't add up, like, okay, you're going here, but there, like, no.
• 1:21:41
  Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, and then they said shit like, oh, that's, you know, racist, like, you literally cannot communicate and interact with the community if you're a police officer. Like, don't you want to know your police? Yeah. If you actually know the cop, you're more likely to get a, hey, Johnny, do I need to fucking call your dad that you were out speeding? Yeah.
• 1:22:00
  Testecleese: Because then you're gonna get a warning instead of a ticket every time.
• 1:22:03
  El Guapo: No, no, but I… yeah, but I'm saying, like, if this guy say he goes somewhere, but he's gonna skip, like, it doesn't add up, the story doesn't add up, he's up to something.
• 1:22:12
  El Guapo: Then you first skip, you know?
• 1:22:15
  Testecleese: First King does seem a little excessive, but I understand, because it's like, hey.
• 1:22:18
  El Guapo: You could've just had…
• 1:22:20
  Testecleese: he could have just said, I don't want to talk to you, and walked away. Like, you didn't have to answer any of these questions, so, like, the frisk isn't so bad. Like, you gave them reason to believe that you should be frisked.
• 1:22:31
  El Guapo: But, yeah.
• 1:22:32
  Testecleese: The problem is, New York City, where Giuliani did this.
• 1:22:36
  Testecleese: Guns… you couldn't just carry a gun on your person. It was incredibly difficult to get a license.
• 1:22:41
  Testecleese: You stop and frisk any random person around here, I bet you 50% of them have a gun on them.
• 1:22:49
  Testecleese: Even at the bar.
• 1:22:50
  El Guapo: Yeah, no, but…
• 1:22:53
  El Guapo: Yeah, but still, you know, it's like, you're not supposed to have a gun at the bar, drinking. Nope. You could be at the bar!
• 1:23:00
  Testecleese: Virginia said it was completely okay to have a gun at your bar.
• 1:23:03
  El Guapo: How about you gonna be drinking?
• 1:23:06
  Testecleese: They didn't say that.
• 1:23:07
  Brian McFadden: They're the dude.
• 1:23:08
  Testecleese: They said, no, they said, no, they said if you're drunk, you should not have a gun in your possession.
• 1:23:12
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:23:13
  El Guapo: You know, when you get drunk, you have to drink.
• 1:23:18
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, but you don't necessarily have to drink until you're, to the point of impairment, either. Like, I'm assuming they're going by legal limit, which is, probably .08, because I think that's nationwide now, right?
• 1:23:28
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:23:30
  Testecleese: Like, I… let's be for real, I can have a single beer with lunch.
• 1:23:35
  Testecleese: And be completely safe with my gun on my person, right?
• 1:23:42
  Testecleese: Maybe even 2 or 3.
• 1:23:45
  Brian McFadden: Maybe not.
• 1:23:47
  Testecleese: Well, it depends on how much… how you can hold your liquor, and are you…
• 1:23:51
  Testecleese: Let's be real, your average gun owner is less likely to…
• 1:23:55
  Testecleese: Start a fight, and more likely to try to not get into a fight, because they don't want to shoot someone.
• 1:24:02
  Testecleese: Legal gun owners, because they understand what that means.
• 1:24:07
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 1:24:08
  Testecleese: Where were we anyway? Oh, New York City!
• 1:24:13
  Testecleese: First of all, you hear… Whatever Mom Donnie did for this friggin' soccer World Cup thing?
• 1:24:20
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 1:24:21
  Brian McFadden: Wayfo.
• 1:24:22
  Testecleese: is going to affect the 4th of July, they're not doing a.
• 1:24:26
  El Guapo: Oh, they're doing…
• 1:24:27
  Testecleese: ball drop and everything, but the public is not welcome to come celebrate the 4th of July.
• 1:24:32
  Brian McFadden: 250th anniversary.
• 1:24:34
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 1:24:36
  El Guapo: That's weird. The people are not happy about it, so…
• 1:24:40
  El Guapo: Hey, like, hey, you elect a fuckin', Muslim major, and this is what you're gonna get, you know?
• 1:24:47
  Testecleese: Dude, the Muslim has nothing to do with not loving…
• 1:24:49
  El Guapo: No, but they're not… they're not fucking happy about America, dude.
• 1:24:54
  Testecleese: No, he's… that's because he's a communist.
• 1:24:56
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:24:57
  Brian McFadden: He was a socialist.
• 1:24:58
  El Guapo: Chase.
• 1:24:59
  Testecleese: What's the difference?
• 1:25:00
  El Guapo: Oh, it's one step away from it.
• 1:25:04
  Testecleese: Lenin, who wrote the Socialist Manifesto, literally said the end goal of socialism is communism.
• 1:25:09
  Brian McFadden: Oh, okay.
• 1:25:11
  El Guapo: Like.
• 1:25:12
  Testecleese: In his paper, like, not he said it after the fact, and it, you know, being misquoted, it's in the socialist manifesto.
• 1:25:19
  Testecleese: This is supposed to be a stepping stone between capitalism and communism.
• 1:25:24
  Testecleese: Which I tried to explain to my brother, but he still thinks socialism is social welfare programs.
• 1:25:29
  El Guapo: Yeah, it was on the step.
• 1:25:32
  El Guapo: Huh? This is a step away from social current.
• 1:25:34
  Testecleese: Well, I mean, no, if you genuinely need a little bit of help, and we can help you get back on your feet, I'm cool with that, but if you're gonna live off the system, that's different.
• 1:25:43
  Testecleese: And he's always bringing up the guy who just needs, you know, like, 2 weeks' pay so he can, you know…
• 1:25:48
  Testecleese: fix his truck and get back to work. I'm like, yes, but we're talking…
• 1:25:52
  Testecleese: That's not what the country's talking about. We're talking about the… the woman with 7 kids to 6 different fathers collecting a giant welfare check every month because she…
• 1:26:01
  El Guapo: Yeah. It doesn't.
• 1:26:01
  Testecleese: Live with any of the daddies.
• 1:26:03
  El Guapo: Yeah, she liked to spray her legs.
• 1:26:06
  El Guapo: Shit.
• 1:26:07
  Testecleese: I…
• 1:26:09
  Testecleese: Let's, put it on the table. Brian, isn't that why you guys kept, delaying getting married to, Ty, was because,
• 1:26:18
  Testecleese: Benefits would, be shut off if she got married.
• 1:26:22
  Brian McFadden: It was the size of the wedding.
• 1:26:25
  Testecleese: Oh, alright, I thought it was she was collecting benefits and wouldn't get them anymore if she got married.
• 1:26:29
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 1:26:31
  Testecleese: I could have sworn you said something like that.
• 1:26:36
  El Guapo: Maybe not.
• 1:26:38
  Testecleese: But yeah, now, Mom Donnie's racial equity plan…
• 1:26:42
  El Guapo: It's causing a MASSIVE issue.
• 1:26:45
  Testecleese: First of all, like, what, he said he wanted to tax the white people? He actually said tax the white people.
• 1:26:51
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, he literally said that in there. It was gonna… Tax… Tax Whitey.
• 1:26:56
  Testecleese: Yeah, he didn't even say, like, the wealthy, or, you know, whatever, he said, the white people. It's like, whoa. Yeah. That's crazy.
• 1:27:05
  El Guapo: What the…
• 1:27:09
  Testecleese: I don't even remember… what is this one even about? Momdani unveils new racial equity plan for a more equitable future that prompts quick DOJ pushback.
• 1:27:17
  Testecleese: So I'm guessing that he's making it a point of preliminary citywide racial equity plan.
• 1:27:23
  Testecleese: So yeah, he's looking to,
• 1:27:26
  Testecleese: Make it a point, is this the one that's… People opening businesses.
• 1:27:31
  Testecleese: Get, like, a tax break if they're, women or minority?
• 1:27:37
  Testecleese: It's like, it basically says, if you're a white dude, you don't get this, but everyone else does.
• 1:27:42
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I think so.
• 1:27:44
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm not sure.
• 1:27:45
  Brian McFadden: The true cost of living measure.
• 1:27:48
  Brian McFadden: Offers an honest account of what it actually costs to live in the city.
• 1:27:56
  Testecleese: Sorry about that, I had to bring up that I cut my mother-in-law's grass today, and I'm wondering how long it'll take her to notice, because my mower had trouble getting through it.
• 1:28:05
  Testecleese: It was… it was getting real thick and nasty. What were you saying, right? I'm sorry, I missed it.
• 1:28:10
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it's some kind of new index they're creating to show what it actually costs to live in New York City.
• 1:28:18
  Testecleese: Was it Mom Donnie demanding Albany send them more money?
• 1:28:22
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, and he wanted, because he wanted to do free buses and everything for everybody.
• 1:28:28
  Brian McFadden: And the free buses have not happened, because…
• 1:28:32
  Brian McFadden: He… the mayor of New York only has so much power.
• 1:28:36
  Testecleese: Yes, and that's the thing, is he's saying, well, we put more money into the pot, we should get more out of it. I was like, that is literally capitalism. You're claiming to be a socialist.
• 1:28:45
  Testecleese: I was like, you, you were supposed to say, those who have more put more into the pot, and it goes to other people.
• 1:28:51
  Testecleese: New York City is what… Is it the richest… second richest city in the planet?
• 1:28:56
  Testecleese: Behind, like, Dubai?
• 1:28:58
  Brian McFadden: Let me try.
• 1:29:00
  El Guapo: Oh, shit.
• 1:29:00
  Testecleese: I mean, it's on the list, I'm sure, right?
• 1:29:04
  Testecleese: Except for how many people have left the area because of this.
• 1:29:07
  Testecleese: He's like, we should get more of this, because we put in more. I was like, well, for the love of God, this is the exact opposite of what you claim to be, what's going on.
• 1:29:18
  Testecleese: I've just…
• 1:29:19
  Repeat Offender: I just thought.
• 1:29:19
  Brian McFadden: You are totally correct.
• 1:29:21
  El Guapo: Oh, shit.
• 1:29:23
  Brian McFadden: Number one!
• 1:29:24
  Testecleese: Number 1! They're above Dubai!
• 1:29:26
  Brian McFadden: They're above Tokyo.
• 1:29:28
  El Guapo: Update.
• 1:29:29
  Brian McFadden: It is, New York City, Tokyo, San Francisco, London, Singapore, Zurich, Dubai, Beijing, Paris.
• 1:29:38
  Testecleese: I was higher up on the list.
• 1:29:39
  Brian McFadden: Hong Kong.
• 1:29:42
  Testecleese: Hong Kong's on the list.
• 1:29:44
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 1:29:45
  El Guapo: Wow.
• 1:29:46
  Brian McFadden: I bet it used to be higher before it became part of China.
• 1:29:52
  Brian McFadden: A lot of financial companies left Hong Kong when they went back to China.
• 1:29:58
  Testecleese: Yes, then the CCP took over.
• 1:30:01
  Testecleese: For that exact reason, it's like, why are we gonna let you guys…
• 1:30:05
  Testecleese: either… what's interesting about Chinese communism is they allow you to be capitalist, but once you hit a certain point of success.
• 1:30:13
  Testecleese: The government puts a person, like, on the board who makes decisions and says this and that, you know?
• 1:30:20
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:30:23
  Testecleese: So long as you're not offending the Chinese government, they let you make money.
• 1:30:27
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:30:30
  Testecleese: Oh, and the,
• 1:30:34
  Testecleese: Those two dudes that chucked bombs at the mayor's mansion in New York City, have been indicted. They're officially facing charges.
• 1:30:43
  El Guapo: Who? Albert Bragg?
• 1:30:46
  El Guapo: What?
• 1:30:47
  El Guapo: Albert Bragg, Albert Bragg, that's the name of the GA.
• 1:30:51
  Brian McFadden: AG.
• 1:30:52
  El Guapo: James. Yeah.
• 1:30:54
  El Guapo: Oh.
• 1:30:57
  Testecleese: I mean… They threw… Live bombs into a Now, they didn't go off.
• 1:31:05
  El Guapo: Oh, is it New York at… is it New York,
• 1:31:08
  El Guapo: DA, or the State New York DA, or the federal.
• 1:31:12
  Testecleese: I don't think it matters. I think no matter what.
• 1:31:14
  El Guapo: No, no, it's a federal affairs, because they're terrorists, so…
• 1:31:18
  Testecleese: It could well be federal, because it's terrorism. Who knows?
• 1:31:21
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:31:22
  Testecleese: I remember Bombdani tried to make it sound like it was white supremacists who chucked bombs at Muslims, and it was… no, it was radical extremists.
• 1:31:31
  Testecleese: Bombing a group of people protesting radical extremism.
• 1:31:36
  Repeat Offender: actually caught one of them running away, didn't they? I think the FBI got the other one.
• 1:31:39
  El Guapo: Yeah, beaten.
• 1:31:40
  Testecleese: the shit out of the dude, too.
• 1:31:43
  Repeat Offender: I have New York's finest on him.
• 1:31:46
  Testecleese: Yeah, he ran… he ran straight at it, jumped a fence or something like that. Like, the dude was an actual hero, and I was like, it's good to see this still exists, even in New York City.
• 1:31:55
  Testecleese: You know, but…
• 1:31:56
  Repeat Offender: the guy, did you see that on Facebook? They showed the video?
• 1:31:59
  El Guapo: There was a guy protesting for Palestine.
• 1:32:02
  Repeat Offender: And he actually jumped on the guy's back to throw the bomb.
• 1:32:05
  El Guapo: Yeah, I got a video to us, I can share it to you.
• 1:32:12
  Testecleese: Unbelievable.
• 1:32:12
  El Guapo: It'd be great, I welcome here, next thing you know, like, a guy tossed a bomb over him, like… like, bummer.
• 1:32:19
  Repeat Offender: Big A's your argument, mate.
• 1:32:22
  Testecleese: I just don't understand the logic, but… Behind blowing shit up.
• 1:32:28
  Testecleese: Like, oh, yo, we're making a point. I was like, y-you killed a bunch of people.
• 1:32:34
  Testecleese: You know what I mean? That have no say in anything, it didn't affect shit, except for maybe bring a United States freaking, Navy or Air Force strike upon wherever you came from.
• 1:32:45
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:32:47
  Repeat Offender: mate, it's been basic terrorist, like, game plan, hasn't it? You look like what the IRA did.
• 1:32:52
  Repeat Offender: The IRA used the bomb as their best weapon.
• 1:32:56
  Testecleese: Yeah, they… the IRA… I'm gonna say it's a little bit different, in that at least
• 1:33:03
  Testecleese: They were fighting an ongoing battle.
• 1:33:08
  Testecleese: Versus… For their own land, almost like a revolution.
• 1:33:14
  Testecleese: Versus, I'm gonna fly halfway across the planet.
• 1:33:18
  Testecleese: and then smash a plane into a giant tower, you know what I mean?
• 1:33:24
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, but also got between the war between religions as well, Protestants versus Catholic.
• 1:33:29
  Repeat Offender: I mean, that was a lot.
• 1:33:29
  Testecleese: time ago, though.
• 1:33:30
  Repeat Offender: Ulster versus IRA, you know? Like, Northern Ireland? Yeah. Great group.
• 1:33:34
  Testecleese: No, I know, I know, I'm just saying, it's…
• 1:33:37
  Testecleese: it's a little different than global terrorism, that was very local. They had a specific battle they were trying to fight on their homeland, what they could.
• 1:33:46
  Repeat Offender: I get it, but all I'm saying is the weapon of choice for these terrorists are the bomb.
• 1:33:52
  Testecleese: Oh, it's easy.
• 1:33:54
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, and you don't use numbers.
• 1:33:55
  Testecleese: They're not doing any… they're not doing any real damage, they're just killing civilians.
• 1:33:59
  Repeat Offender: Exactly.
• 1:34:01
  Repeat Offender: at all.
• 1:34:01
  Testecleese: If you want…
• 1:34:02
  Testecleese: If you're gonna… if you're gonna bomb something, at least, like, bomb, like, the government building, you know what I mean?
• 1:34:08
  Repeat Offender: Yeah.
• 1:34:09
  El Guapo: Which…
• 1:34:10
  Testecleese: Which is hilarious, because these bombs got tossed at the friggin' mayor's mansion.
• 1:34:15
  Repeat Offender: And you're not promoting it, neither, but yeah, I know what you mean.
• 1:34:18
  Testecleese: not, I'm just saying, if you're gonna… that's why I don't think this terrorism thing is real.
• 1:34:23
  El Guapo: We did evidence. We want to make sure that's real, like, yep, that looks real.
• 1:34:28
  Testecleese: Not even that doable, like…
• 1:34:30
  Testecleese: I'm not a fucking genius, I haven't studied bomb making, but I can make something that blows up pretty easily, you know what I mean? It's not that difficult.
• 1:34:38
  Brian McFadden: I think you can get StradGBT to tell you how to do it.
• 1:34:41
  El Guapo: Oh my god! No, because they're gonna get ruined.
• 1:34:44
  Testecleese: Are you asking about a carrot, carrot?
• 1:34:46
  Brian McFadden: I am not doing that.
• 1:34:48
  Testecleese: You ask it for, like, how…
• 1:34:50
  Brian McFadden: What?
• 1:34:50
  Testecleese: It might cause a catastrophic fail with, gunpowder storage, for example, you know what I mean? And it'll tell you, and it's like, oh, there we go. But, like, you could… if you wanted to do damage to civilians, there's so many better and easier ways to do it. I could take bleach.
• 1:35:08
  Testecleese: 100 gallons of bleach, right?
• 1:35:10
  Testecleese: go up onto a rooftop in New York City, you know, 100 stories up.
• 1:35:15
  Testecleese: And pump it out, aerosolized, and just poisoned everyone below me.
• 1:35:21
  Testecleese: And it would be so easy.
• 1:35:24
  Testecleese: It'd be so easy. And that's just a simple one, let alone making explosives.
• 1:35:30
  Testecleese: You know, it just… I don't know, man, like…
• 1:35:35
  Testecleese: I think if this terrorism thing was real, there would be more devastating attacks, like 9-11, for example, or what happened October 7th in Israel. That's real terrorism, but it's not very common to see real acts of terrorism. We usually see…
• 1:35:50
  Testecleese: Feudal little, I'm a bitch, I don't know what else to do.
• 1:35:54
  Testecleese: So, they do something stupid, you know what I mean?
• 1:36:00
  Testecleese: I mean, I could rig up something in my garage in…
• 1:36:03
  Testecleese: a matter of hours, that I can set that'll fire out…
• 1:36:07
  Testecleese: 15 shotgun rounds at the same time.
• 1:36:11
  Testecleese: Out of a tiny little short barrel, dragon's breath rounds, and just shoot a giant fireball of mol-
• 1:36:18
  Testecleese: burning magnesium.
• 1:36:20
  Testecleese: If I genuinely wanted to hurt people.
• 1:36:24
  Testecleese: And I can do it in a couple hours with my weld machine and a little bit of steel tubing.
• 1:36:30
  Testecleese: That's, like I said, this is why I think this shit's not real.
• 1:36:33
  Testecleese: Or at least not nearly as wide scale as the…
• 1:36:36
  El Guapo: We've been told…
• 1:36:38
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:36:40
  Testecleese: And they're trying to govern the fuck out of us, still because of terrorism.
• 1:36:44
  Testecleese: Just like they did with COVID.
• 1:36:49
  Testecleese: You know, let your average citizen carry a gun.
• 1:36:52
  Testecleese: Maybe we'll see less terrorism, because, an armed neighbor is a polite neighbor.
• 1:37:00
  Testecleese: Shit, Cal… Australia! You guys just had that crazy fucking shooting at Bondi Beach?
• 1:37:06
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:37:07
  Testecleese: Took some fucking civilian with giant balls and his wheelbarrow to move them around in to friggin' take the gun from the guy.
• 1:37:16
  Testecleese: Why did it come to that?
• 1:37:17
  Repeat Offender: Awesome.
• 1:37:18
  Testecleese: Why didn't come to that? Why couldn't…
• 1:37:20
  Testecleese: Someone there just pull out their handgun and put one in the guy's chest.
• 1:37:26
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 1:37:27
  Testecleese: Why should you have to charge at the man with a fucking semi-automatic rifle and try to take it from him?
• 1:37:36
  Repeat Offender: We've got a bucket system, like…
• 1:37:38
  Testecleese: Yeah, and God bless that man, he's a true hero.
• 1:37:42
  Testecleese: But he shouldn't have had to.
• 1:37:45
  Testecleese: Let's be real.
• 1:37:47
  Repeat Offender: 100%.
• 1:37:49
  Testecleese: And let's be real, in that situation, everyone near that man at that time said, fuck, I wish I had a gun.
• 1:37:58
  Testecleese: They might not have realized they were thinking it, but they definitely were.
• 1:38:03
  El Guapo: Granted.
• 1:38:03
  Repeat Offender: Oh, there's one rush.
• 1:38:05
  El Guapo: Your average.
• 1:38:05
  Testecleese: The person goes straight to crying and hiding, but…
• 1:38:09
  Repeat Offender: Well, there's one guy, they had him video recording, saying, these fuckers are shooting at us now, we haven't got a gun.
• 1:38:15
  Testecleese: Yeah, exactly, I can't shoot back, right?
• 1:38:21
  Testecleese: But yeah, alright, Brian, on to California.
• 1:38:24
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:38:25
  Testecleese: I didn't realize Carl Jr. went bankrupt.
• 1:38:29
  Brian McFadden: This was a franchisee.
• 1:38:31
  Testecleese: Oh…
• 1:38:32
  Brian McFadden: Okay, okay. Owns a bunch of them, and they let… they went to bankruptcy because they couldn't afford the California $20 minimum wage.
• 1:38:41
  Testecleese: I thought Carl's Julian went bankrupt, didn't. What's the other name?
• 1:38:44
  El Guapo: Oh.
• 1:38:45
  Testecleese: Party.
• 1:38:46
  El Guapo: Parties. Parties.
• 1:38:47
  Testecleese: Hardee's. Yeah, that's the first thing I thought, I was like, holy shit, I was like, Carl Jr. Carl's Jr, that means Hardee's is gone, too, on the East Coast.
• 1:38:55
  El Guapo: No, it's a franchise.
• 1:38:57
  Brian McFadden: They're not… no, they're… Carl Jr.'s not gone, it's just, like…
• 1:39:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, this one man lost his… went back.
• 1:39:03
  El Guapo: I see that. Yeah.
• 1:39:05
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, because he had to… what is it they're doing? Is it, 20 or 30 for fasting?
• 1:39:10
  Brian McFadden: Funny.
• 1:39:11
  Testecleese: 20.
• 1:39:12
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:39:14
  Testecleese: Yeah, oh my god.
• 1:39:15
  Brian McFadden: Which led to significant operating expenses, which exasperated with declining sales over the past 2 years.
• 1:39:23
  El Guapo: Well, yeah.
• 1:39:24
  Testecleese: Yeah, you can't afford to pay your employees.
• 1:39:28
  Testecleese: Now your employees can't even afford to eat at your own place, because you had to raise the price.
• 1:39:34
  Brian McFadden: This guy owned 52 Carl's Jr.'s…
• 1:39:37
  Testecleese: Oh!
• 1:39:38
  Brian McFadden: southern.
• 1:39:38
  El Guapo: California. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:39:39
  Brian McFadden: 7 in Northern California.
• 1:39:41
  El Guapo: Okay, that's what happened with your birthday.
• 1:39:43
  Testecleese: I'm so far.
• 1:39:45
  El Guapo: He should have diversified, too.
• 1:39:48
  Testecleese: Yeah, but Carlos Jr. is doing good for him, and he knew how it worked. He could visit all the locations, and they were all supposed to operate the exact same way.
• 1:39:55
  El Guapo: That's good, yeah, but it's.
• 1:39:57
  Testecleese: But what do you mean, diversify? He's good at fast food, so what, he does Burger King? Same problem.
• 1:40:01
  El Guapo: No, no, no, he could have invested somewhere else, another state, or something like that.
• 1:40:06
  El Guapo: You know, just… you just don't put all your eggs in one basket.
• 1:40:11
  Repeat Offender: Or a couple of subway outlets.
• 1:40:13
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:40:14
  Brian McFadden: Well, I'd have the same problem, that's fast food, so it's still $20 minimum wage.
• 1:40:18
  Testecleese: No, and I get what Guapo's saying, he's saying invest.
• 1:40:22
  El Guapo: Diversify.
• 1:40:23
  Testecleese: This guy had all his money in his restaurant chain.
• 1:40:26
  El Guapo: What's today.
• 1:40:26
  Brian McFadden: Because it was easier, too.
• 1:40:29
  Brian McFadden: state income taxes, you only have to know the income laws for California. You start adding other states on there, and it's a whole other ball of wax, you know? You've got to know all the tax laws for every single state.
• 1:40:42
  El Guapo: That's why you hire people.
• 1:40:43
  Testecleese: You wouldn't even try, you wouldn't even try, you would hire an accountant, which is another person you have to pay, and he's gonna get paid way more than your employees are in your restaurants. He's probably gonna make six figures if he's gonna run the taxes for your restaurants.
• 1:40:58
  Repeat Offender: 52 chains, mate, you would. You'd have a real good account, wouldn't you?
• 1:41:01
  Testecleese: Well, I'm certain this guy had one for California. There's no way he was doing all this by himself. No. There's no way he let the individual…
• 1:41:08
  Testecleese: re… Locations do their own taxes either, because, you know what I mean, it's… it's his…
• 1:41:14
  Testecleese: It's his tax being paid. And granted, he may have studied up to do it himself, but exactly, he moves to another state, dude, like Brian said.
• 1:41:23
  Testecleese: Don't even bother trying to learn, hire someone to do it.
• 1:41:26
  Repeat Offender: I wonder if they… if they do what, like, Carl's Jr. and that, like, Wendy's and all that do, what McDonald's do, they buy the land?
• 1:41:33
  Repeat Offender: And lease it out to the proprietor.
• 1:41:36
  Repeat Offender: The what now?
• 1:41:37
  Repeat Offender: Well, McDonald's, what they do, they buy the land.
• 1:41:41
  Brian McFadden: Not always. No, a lot of places, they just rent the land.
• 1:41:45
  El Guapo: Yeah. It's like…
• 1:41:47
  Repeat Offender: In one seat.
• 1:41:48
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, sorry.
• 1:41:50
  El Guapo: That type of outreach, yeah.
• 1:41:52
  Testecleese: Yeah, some of them do that.
• 1:41:54
  Testecleese: But not necessarily… and none of them do it all the time. If you own a plot of land, and you want to put…
• 1:42:00
  Testecleese: A McDonald's on it. McDonald's will…
• 1:42:03
  Testecleese: do the franchise thing with you. Once you pay the application fee and show that.
• 1:42:08
  Brian McFadden: Which is, like, a million dollars.
• 1:42:10
  Testecleese: Yeah, yes, it's like a million bucks or a half a million bucks just to apply for the franchise, but you also have to show a business plan to show that you're gonna bring money in to make McDonald's money.
• 1:42:20
  El Guapo: Yep. You know?
• 1:42:24
  Testecleese: Otherwise, you know, Pizza Hut would only land, and it would just sit there with an abandoned Pizza Hut for 30 years. Oh, wait a minute, I see those every now and then!
• 1:42:33
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:42:37
  Testecleese: There are still Pizza Huts, though, and it's still…
• 1:42:39
  Brian McFadden: There isn't very many, they're very far, few and far between.
• 1:42:42
  Testecleese: I got one near me, and I brought my kids to it.
• 1:42:46
  Brian McFadden: You could eat inside.
• 1:42:48
  Testecleese: or three tables to sit at, but I was like, we're sitting at Pizza Hut, and we're eating, dammit. You know?
• 1:42:53
  Brian McFadden: I mean, I think they screwed themselves when they got rid of the lunch buffet.
• 1:42:57
  Repeat Offender: Yay.
• 1:42:58
  Testecleese: I think the Book It program was the big deal for Pizza Hut, remember that?
• 1:43:02
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 1:43:03
  Testecleese: Kids in elementary school would read books.
• 1:43:05
  Brian McFadden: Mmm.
• 1:43:06
  Testecleese: And you got a star. After so many stars, you got a free single-serving pizza for a child.
• 1:43:13
  El Guapo: That pizza?
• 1:43:14
  Brian McFadden: And that brought the parents in.
• 1:43:15
  Testecleese: That brought the whole family in for the one free pizza. They buy two pizzas for the one free small one. They made money. And it encouraged kids to read more books.
• 1:43:25
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 1:43:26
  Testecleese: Oh, I read one more book this week, and it could be a 10-page book.
• 1:43:31
  El Guapo: You know, a little storybook.
• 1:43:32
  Testecleese: If I read one more book this week, I can grab pizza on Friday, you know?
• 1:43:39
  Brian McFadden: So, in other great California news, there's this…
• 1:43:43
  Brian McFadden: I guess, political entity that's pushing for a $3 minimum wage to go on the ballot for Oakland.
• 1:43:49
  Testecleese: That's where… okay, that's where I came up with $30. That's why I kept thinking 30 bucks.
• 1:43:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, and this has been proven to have failed everywhere else in California, to include Carl's Jr, right?
• 1:44:01
  Brian McFadden: Let's do it again.
• 1:44:03
  Testecleese: And not just min… this… this guy doesn't just want fast food, he wants us across the board in Oakland, right? Yup.
• 1:44:11
  Testecleese: Who, who, what business is gonna open a business or run a business in Oakland at that point?
• 1:44:16
  Brian McFadden: Hold on it.
• 1:44:17
  El Guapo: What if…
• 1:44:18
  Testecleese: Wouldn't you just open your business right across the border to the next city?
• 1:44:21
  El Guapo: Yeah. Yup.
• 1:44:28
  Testecleese: It gets you, man. It's like, oh, we're going to these…
• 1:44:30
  El Guapo: Okay, dude, okay, you put in… too much… Thought into this?
• 1:44:37
  El Guapo: You're not putting emotion into this.
• 1:44:41
  El Guapo: Okay? Emotion's gonna be like, yeah, let's do this, because people are gonna feel great. Yeah. Logically, it's just not gonna work.
• 1:44:50
  Testecleese: Here's the question, is if you raise minimum wage to 30 bucks an hour, what does that do
• 1:44:56
  Testecleese: To your journeyman welder.
• 1:44:59
  Testecleese: Is he now making minimum wage?
• 1:45:03
  Testecleese: Or does his pay increase as well?
• 1:45:08
  Testecleese: If I'm gonna make the same amount of money working at The Gap folding sweaters and putting them away as I would where I could melt my face off or electrocute myself to death.
• 1:45:19
  Testecleese: Why would I take the dangerous job?
• 1:45:21
  Brian McFadden: Exactly, you wouldn't.
• 1:45:24
  Testecleese: And if you increase everyone else's pay accordingly, then all you did was leave everyone in the same place economically, except for the people that don't have jobs, who now can't afford to do anything. Like I said, you just raised the floor.
• 1:45:36
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:45:40
  Testecleese: You guys see the video of this guy in Ontario, California?
• 1:45:45
  El Guapo: No.
• 1:45:46
  Testecleese: Factory worker?
• 1:45:49
  Testecleese: Oh. No? Oh.
• 1:45:52
  Testecleese: It's a giant fire in California, dude.
• 1:45:55
  El Guapo: Whoa, he turned… oh, yeah, I saw that he put… yeah, yeah, there.
• 1:45:59
  Testecleese: The place that makes the toilet paper.
• 1:46:02
  Testecleese: For, like, Charm… Charmin and all these, like, major name brands.
• 1:46:07
  Testecleese: Dude decided he didn't get paid enough money in California, so started, like, 3 or 4 fires in the toilet paper.
• 1:46:15
  Testecleese: Recorded himself doing it and published it.
• 1:46:19
  Brian McFadden: Oh, there you go.
• 1:46:22
  El Guapo: I believe is enough of a cricket.
• 1:46:23
  Brian McFadden: middle pile.
• 1:46:24
  El Guapo: There's no footprints in the cell phone video. There's not. I'm just saying.
• 1:46:31
  Testecleese: Oh, no, they got him in custody.
• 1:46:33
  El Guapo: Yeah, no, but I'm saying there's footprints, and you feel.
• 1:46:35
  Testecleese: It's just, it's just fucking crazy, and he's like, well, maybe you paid me a living wage. Why don't you learn a fucking skill?
• 1:46:42
  El Guapo: Improve yourself.
• 1:46:45
  Testecleese: W-what does he do?
• 1:46:47
  Testecleese: Like, let's be real, like, he was in a giant warehouse, so chances are…
• 1:46:53
  Testecleese: He either worked at a desk upstairs, or operated a forklift.
• 1:46:58
  Testecleese: If he's complaining about how much money he made, he was probably operating a forklift.
• 1:47:02
  Brian McFadden: We did compare himself to Luigi Mangioni.
• 1:47:05
  Testecleese: He did.
• 1:47:06
  Testecleese: And… and… this is something we brought up when people… the Dems started cheering for Luigi.
• 1:47:12
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:47:12
  Testecleese: This is just gonna bring more.
• 1:47:14
  El Guapo: Oh, after that? Yeah, it's gonna be at my life.
• 1:47:17
  Testecleese: He complained about not getting paid enough, so he burned the place to the fucking ground. Giant fire. Enormous.
• 1:47:24
  Testecleese: And now, everyone else who worked with him is out of work until this shit's rebuilt.
• 1:47:29
  Brian McFadden: And then maybe I'll.
• 1:47:30
  Testecleese: And the company that owned it? Insurance is gonna cover this. You didn't hurt the company, you hurt everyone else who's the same boat as you.
• 1:47:39
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:47:41
  Testecleese: These fucking morons never put a goddamn second of thought into a damn thing they do.
• 1:47:46
  El Guapo: I loved it, don't spo.
• 1:47:47
  Repeat Offender: I suppose for you, he's gonna be unemployed, mate, like, go and live in a place where you pay tax… no, don't pay taxes, and you get food free. Go to jail.
• 1:47:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, exactly. He's about to go to prison, and he's gonna get a free… 3 hots and a cot.
• 1:48:01
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, pretty wide, I suppose that's what?
• 1:48:04
  Testecleese: Yeah, we're gonna pay for it instead.
• 1:48:06
  Testecleese: But I was like, dude, like, you could've learned a skill.
• 1:48:09
  Testecleese: I mean, I'm not saying that it doesn't take a little bit of understanding to operate a forklift, but let's be real, for someone who's not a goddamn moron, it's about 20 minutes of training, isn't it?
• 1:48:20
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:48:21
  Repeat Offender: Oh, yeah.
• 1:48:21
  Testecleese: I'm certain you've operated a forklift. A repeat offender, you look like you have. Brian, you might have.
• 1:48:27
  Brian McFadden: I did a Humvee, does that count?
• 1:48:30
  El Guapo: No, why?
• 1:48:31
  Brian McFadden: I drove a Humvee.
• 1:48:33
  Testecleese: Humvee's not a forklift.
• 1:48:36
  Repeat Offender: I worked at… I worked at steel mills at BHP, mate. I made… I made steel. So we… we had to learn how to drive ram trucks and fork trucks.
• 1:48:45
  Testecleese: Yeah, the forklift is seriously, like, 20 minutes of training.
• 1:48:48
  Repeat Offender: trucks, yeah.
• 1:48:49
  Testecleese: This is the throttle, this is back, this is backwards, this one here lifts your forks, this one here tilts them back, right? And there you go, that's all you need to know.
• 1:48:58
  Repeat Offender: You've got no weight bearing and all that, load placements, shit like that, too. Yeah, but that's…
• 1:49:04
  Testecleese: But, toilet paper, dude!
• 1:49:06
  Repeat Offender: Oh, no, I know that, yeah.
• 1:49:08
  Testecleese: You know, it's not even like he has to worry about tipping the thing.
• 1:49:11
  El Guapo: Over!
• 1:49:13
  Repeat Offender: Oh, he knew that.
• 1:49:16
  Testecleese: He didn't have to worry about tipping it over, like, it took minimal skill. Anyone could do his job.
• 1:49:22
  Testecleese: With an hour of training.
• 1:49:25
  Testecleese: And he's upset he didn't make enough money. Meanwhile, California has, what, the highest minimum wage in the country.
• 1:49:31
  Brian McFadden: Yep, more definitely.
• 1:49:33
  Testecleese: We need a livable wage.
• 1:49:35
  Repeat Offender: Well, this…
• 1:49:35
  Testecleese: This clearly didn't work by increasing minimum wage, so let's fucking do it again, right?
• 1:49:41
  Brian McFadden: Keep it up!
• 1:49:41
  Repeat Offender: teleports. Who's got the higher taxes?
• 1:49:44
  Brian McFadden: If it'll work the first time, maybe it'll work the second or third time.
• 1:49:49
  Testecleese: No, they…
• 1:49:50
  Repeat Offender: It seems like… Sorry, who's got the bigger tax rate, California or New York?
• 1:49:57
  Testecleese: Depends on what, are you talking about income, or…
• 1:50:01
  Testecleese: You know what I mean? What are we taxing?
• 1:50:04
  Repeat Offender: Fuel-wise, food-wise, and stuff like that.
• 1:50:07
  Testecleese: Well, New Jersey has the highest tax on tobacco.
• 1:50:13
  Testecleese: But New York City taxes you, and so does New York State and the federal government on your income.
• 1:50:19
  Repeat Offender: Right, okay.
• 1:50:21
  Testecleese: So, I mean, it depends on what tax you're talking about.
• 1:50:24
  El Guapo: Hold on…
• 1:50:25
  Repeat Offender: Jackson, Massachusetts.
• 1:50:26
  Testecleese: Getting out of control.
• 1:50:28
  Repeat Offender: Get out.
• 1:50:30
  Repeat Offender: Is it by exploit?
• 1:50:32
  Repeat Offender: What I was trying to say, like, if you're talking about, like… sorry, you know? If you've got, like, taxes, right? Say, for example, you're talking about California taxes.
• 1:50:40
  El Guapo: Right?
• 1:50:41
  Repeat Offender: And then you're talking about all these other ones where they're trying to increase the minimum wage?
• 1:50:45
  Repeat Offender: It's sort of like your wages have got to offset your tax, haven't they? It's sort of like your.
• 1:50:51
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, as you increase minimum wage, you increase the amount of tax taken in, too.
• 1:50:55
  Repeat Offender: That's right. So there's got to be that shelf.
• 1:50:57
  Testecleese: woman…
• 1:50:58
  Repeat Offender: Wait a minute.
• 1:50:58
  Testecleese: Assuming these jobs get filled, and instead of businesses closing or just moving out of the area, which we're seeing a lot of.
• 1:51:07
  Brian McFadden: Hmm. Yep.
• 1:51:09
  Testecleese: Like I said, our local bar, I… you weren't here for it.
• 1:51:13
  Testecleese: My local bar, the nearest place I can get a beer, just closed their doors.
• 1:51:19
  El Guapo: Mmm…
• 1:51:21
  Brian McFadden: Do you want to open up your own bar now?
• 1:51:24
  Testecleese: Oh, God, no, there's not enough people that want to go out and drink a beer. And I was just talking to the owner, and I was like, this just… you don't get enough traffic.
• 1:51:31
  Brian McFadden: I don't think…
• 1:51:32
  Testecleese: ago.
• 1:51:33
  Brian McFadden: I think the problem was that,
• 1:51:35
  Brian McFadden: He got a lot of good publicity a couple weeks ago.
• 1:51:39
  Brian McFadden: About that guy that, you know, left his kids at home while he went to go get shit-faced.
• 1:51:44
  Testecleese: Yeah… Yeah, that was that same place.
• 1:51:52
  Testecleese: But yeah, I was just talking to him about, like.
• 1:51:55
  Testecleese: How to bring in more people?
• 1:51:57
  Testecleese: How to spend less on this and that, and I was like, dude, I was like, I'll take your aluminum cans for free.
• 1:52:04
  Testecleese: He's like, what do you mean you'll take him? He's like, I'll take him!
• 1:52:07
  Testecleese: Because he serves everything out of a can or a bottle, there's no taps.
• 1:52:11
  Brian McFadden: Well, there's where he's losing all his money.
• 1:52:13
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:52:14
  Testecleese: Yes. But I was like, I'll take them off your hands. He's like, well, I'm paying someone now. I was like, yeah, and I said, I'll take them for free.
• 1:52:19
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:52:20
  Testecleese: He's like, well, what are you gonna do with them? And I showed him, like, my forge setup on my phone.
• 1:52:25
  Testecleese: And I was like, I'm just gonna cast them into bars until I have a truckload full, and then drive it out and sell it for, you know, just… net weight.
• 1:52:35
  Testecleese: And he wanted to… he was talking to me about, like, setting something up where I actually worked for him doing this. Instead of separate.
• 1:52:42
  Testecleese: And then, like, 2 days later, he, like, closed his bar, but I was like, man, you need to get, like, 3 more TVs and play, like.
• 1:52:49
  Testecleese: Monday Night Football in here or something, you know what I mean?
• 1:52:51
  Brian McFadden: Right. Or something.
• 1:52:54
  Testecleese: But the walls are painted black.
• 1:52:57
  Brian McFadden: That was very ginger.
• 1:52:58
  Testecleese: It just… it feels like a dive bar when you log in.
• 1:53:04
  El Guapo: Hmm.
• 1:53:05
  Testecleese: And they claim they're,
• 1:53:06
  Testecleese: family-friendly restaurant, but they, like, have a grill out back, they'll cook hot dogs or burgers on.
• 1:53:15
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 1:53:19
  El Guapo: Anyways, hey guys, let me get out of here, I gotta get up in the morning.
• 1:53:24
  El Guapo: Alright, man.
• 1:53:25
  Repeat Offender: Well, when the site came up?
• 1:53:27
  El Guapo: Oh, good night, guys.
• 1:53:29
  Repeat Offender: See, Mike, take care.
• 1:53:30
  El Guapo: True Drew.
• 1:53:32
  Testecleese: California did their 5% wealth tax they put in place, which I'm still not sure exactly how this works. They're actually… are they taxing on your net worth, or how much cash you have in the bank?
• 1:53:46
  Brian McFadden: Let me look at this article again.
• 1:53:48
  Testecleese: Well, it says wealth tax, and it says worth this much, but isn't that subject to what someone else will pay to buy your stuff?
• 1:53:57
  Testecleese: Because when you have assets, Realistically, net worth is just an estimate, right?
• 1:54:04
  Repeat Offender: Yeah. She's my friend's sleep.
• 1:54:06
  Brian McFadden: Governments levy an annual wealth tax on the total net worth, including stocks, business ownership, real estate, and other assets, regardless of whether someone sells those assets.
• 1:54:18
  Testecleese: Well, okay then, then they… these people all need.
• 1:54:21
  Brian McFadden: Apparently, this is a tax that's already been implemented in parts of Europe, and California's copying it.
• 1:54:27
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, what.
• 1:54:28
  Brian McFadden: Branch does it.
• 1:54:31
  Testecleese: But the thing is, you own a bunch of stock, okay? So you're worth $100 million, right?
• 1:54:36
  Brian McFadden: But no, that's only on paper.
• 1:54:38
  Testecleese: Yeah, okay, you have a nice house, we'll say. You have a million dollar house, really nice place, right where you want, built up, you got the gate in the front, the brick wall, and you're a half, you know, quarter mile from the road.
• 1:54:54
  Testecleese: you don't have $20 million sitting in the bank, necessarily. You might just be enjoying your life. Like, I made my money, I'm done working.
• 1:55:02
  Brian McFadden: That's why so many people are leaving California, and more are going to, because of politics.
• 1:55:07
  Testecleese: Making retirement impossible!
• 1:55:10
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 1:55:11
  Testecleese: You have to constantly sell stuff to be able to pay your tax, because you own stuff!
• 1:55:16
  Testecleese: Does this… does this tax 401K?
• 1:55:20
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah!
• 1:55:21
  Testecleese: So, okay, your retirement fund is being taxed.
• 1:55:24
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 1:55:25
  Testecleese: Because you have it!
• 1:55:27
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:55:28
  Testecleese: Why bother saving money instead of blowing it?
• 1:55:33
  Testecleese: They're just gonna take it anyway. California's talking about taxing you after you leave the state.
• 1:55:38
  Brian McFadden: And that's our next article. Most blue states…
• 1:55:41
  Brian McFadden: You know, especially in the Northeast, where you came from, and California, they're looking for ways to keep their… their welfare states going, you know, because they've got huge welfare programs involved in their states.
• 1:55:55
  Brian McFadden: And.
• 1:55:57
  Testecleese: California, New York, Washington, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Connecticut want to tax you if you want to move out of the state.
• 1:56:07
  Repeat Offender: All blue states.
• 1:56:09
  Testecleese: all blue states, and I got out of Massachusetts before they passed it. Brian!
• 1:56:14
  Testecleese: You moved in as Michigan's starting to pass this. Can you imagine being taxed for leaving? Would you just not pay it and let them come find you?
• 1:56:21
  Brian McFadden: Derr.
• 1:56:22
  Testecleese: Well, let's be real, Michigan's not gonna come get you when you move out, right?
• 1:56:27
  Brian McFadden: No, I don't make that much money.
• 1:56:29
  Testecleese: I was gonna say, especially…
• 1:56:30
  Brian McFadden: I actually make less money.
• 1:56:31
  Testecleese: Now, they might owe you.
• 1:56:33
  Brian McFadden: It's funny now than I did in Virginia, so…
• 1:56:36
  Testecleese: Michigan might actually give you money to leave.
• 1:56:41
  Testecleese: That's what's crazy, is that they want to tax people to leave, but they're offering tax incentives for people to move in.
• 1:56:47
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:56:48
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:56:49
  Testecleese: This sounds like the fucking Berlin Wall, we're gonna entice you to come over here, then you're not allowed to leave.
• 1:56:55
  Brian McFadden: Pretty much.
• 1:56:57
  Brian McFadden: Blue states are so dependent on wealthy people living in their states, you know, that…
• 1:57:03
  Brian McFadden: And they're not… they're not tax-friendly states, you know? It's like, that's why so many people are moving to Texas and Florida, you know, because they…
• 1:57:11
  Testecleese: West Virginia.
• 1:57:12
  Brian McFadden: In West Virginia, yeah. Believe it or not.
• 1:57:13
  Testecleese: A lot of people are moving here. It's the most moved-in-to state right now.
• 1:57:18
  Testecleese: But I swear we just watched, Nan- Hochul.
• 1:57:22
  Testecleese: I swear we just watched Hogel beg the wealthy people to come back to New York.
• 1:57:25
  Brian McFadden: We did. We definitely did.
• 1:57:28
  Repeat Offender: So let me get this right, they want to tax you on asset riches, but not actual financial riches.
• 1:57:34
  Repeat Offender: Correct. Do you know what I mean?
• 1:57:36
  Testecleese: So you inherited a very nice house from your very wealthy father, but you are not wealthy.
• 1:57:42
  Testecleese: You now owe taxes.
• 1:57:44
  Testecleese: Now, not just property tax, which you have to figure out how to pay anyway, but you owe tax for simply…
• 1:57:50
  Testecleese: On top of that, for simply owning it.
• 1:57:53
  Repeat Offender: Shit.
• 1:57:53
  Brian McFadden: I would have had to sell it in order to pay the taxes.
• 1:57:57
  Testecleese: And then… That brings up the question, I may as… or…
• 1:58:02
  Testecleese: Should I just sell it before tax season ends, so I don't get taxed on it?
• 1:58:08
  Repeat Offender: So that basically becomes an inheritance tax as well.
• 1:58:11
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 1:58:11
  Testecleese: Oh, oh, yes!
• 1:58:13
  Testecleese: Yeah, you collected inheritance.
• 1:58:16
  Testecleese: Your father dies, right, and gives you everything he had saved his entire life, which, I'm gonna be 100% fair here, boomers didn't save shit.
• 1:58:27
  Testecleese: They own… they hold a lot of the wealth.
• 1:58:30
  Testecleese: In terms of they own more property, like, your average boomer owns, like.
• 1:58:34
  Testecleese: Two or one and a half homes, or something like that, or two and a half homes?
• 1:58:39
  Repeat Offender: Yep.
• 1:58:41
  Testecleese: But they're selling them slowly as they age. Your average boomer is, quote, living life to the fullest and leaving nothing for their children.
• 1:58:50
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, I've heard that. Everywhere.
• 1:58:53
  Repeat Offender: That's not just happening in America, it's happening out here.
• 1:58:58
  Testecleese: And yeah, they went and completely changed the world work, the way the world works, because they… because everything was safe and fine after World War II, right?
• 1:59:07
  Testecleese: Everyone made a ton of money, and now they're like, oh, it's gonna be like this forever, and they still believe that shit, while their kids are…
• 1:59:16
  Testecleese: Can't come up with a frickin' $200,000 to buy a house.
• 1:59:21
  Testecleese: I mean, let's be real.
• 1:59:23
  Testecleese: Brian, that…
• 1:59:24
  Testecleese: you got in Virginia. It's not enormous, it's a modest home in a modest neighborhood, but it's not garbage.
• 1:59:31
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 1:59:31
  Testecleese: It's gotta be worth at least 200 grand, right?
• 1:59:34
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:59:35
  Testecleese: That's ridiculous, isn't it?
• 1:59:37
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:59:39
  Testecleese: My father bought his place in Massachusetts, in the, 70s, for $68,000.
• 1:59:50
  Testecleese: It sold for over, $600,000.
• 1:59:53
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 1:59:56
  Testecleese: That's just INSANE how much that's gone up!
• 1:59:59
  Testecleese: And wages have not kept pace.
• 2:00:02
  Testecleese: Which I think is gonna be the big issue, because the only real wealth boomers are holding these days
• 2:00:07
  Testecleese: Because, like I said, they're spending everything, is their property.
• 2:00:12
  Testecleese: what's gonna happen when they do die and pass this on to their kids? All of a sudden, there's gonna be a surge, which has already begun, because we've already hit the mortality cliff of the boomers, right?
• 2:00:24
  Testecleese: They've hit the.
• 2:00:25
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:00:27
  Testecleese: Life expectancy.
• 2:00:30
  Testecleese: When all of a sudden, a whole bunch of high-value homes dump into the market.
• 2:00:35
  Testecleese: The bottom's gonna fall out of the market.
• 2:00:39
  Testecleese: Because no one… You inherit a house worth a million dollars, and you go, oh, awesome.
• 2:00:45
  Testecleese: And you try to sell it.
• 2:00:47
  Testecleese: And you can't get a million dollars, because there's 800 other houses in 50 miles.
• 2:00:52
  Testecleese: Just as nice selling for less.
• 2:00:55
  Testecleese: So you drop it down to $800, all the way down to below a half million. You just want to get rid of it.
• 2:01:02
  Testecleese: You know?
• 2:01:03
  Testecleese: I don't… I don't intend to live in Massachusetts.
• 2:01:06
  Testecleese: You know, for example.
• 2:01:10
  Testecleese: And yet, it's… it's gonna be a mess. It's gonna drop the prices of houses nationwide.
• 2:01:18
  Testecleese: And what's worse is people are gonna be paying taxes on these homes and these places that tax your wealth.
• 2:01:26
  Testecleese: For simply owning them, because they can't get rid of them.
• 2:01:30
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:01:31
  Testecleese: Could you imagine inheriting a million dollar house and selling it for 200 grand because you're just tired of paying the tax?
• 2:01:39
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 2:01:42
  Testecleese: Alright. Brian, you… followed this a lot more than I, so…
• 2:01:47
  Testecleese: But I did pay attention when I heard they came around from the dark side of the moon and re-established contact with NASA, but since then, I haven't paid much attention, except for this… except for the, the ship they sent out to recover them.
• 2:02:00
  Brian McFadden: Yep, Navy ship.
• 2:02:02
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I've been following this, the last 10 days, kind of at Christine, the…
• 2:02:09
  Brian McFadden: seen NASA get back into the space business, you know.
• 2:02:13
  Brian McFadden: Everybody made a big deal about us flying around the moon and back, you know, but, I mean, whatever.
• 2:02:20
  Brian McFadden: But we had some issues with the Artemis II toilet.
• 2:02:26
  Brian McFadden: It malfunctioned malfunctioned several times, and they thought they were blaming it on, It being too cold…
• 2:02:35
  Brian McFadden: So they weren't able to make it work?
• 2:02:38
  Brian McFadden: This toilet cost $23 million.
• 2:02:42
  Brian McFadden: To design and replicate input on this spacecraft.
• 2:02:47
  Brian McFadden: So, you would think for $23 million, they would figure out how to make the toilet work.
• 2:02:53
  Brian McFadden: Because it is a very expensive toilet, so…
• 2:02:57
  Testecleese: It's… which is funny, it immediately made me think of the Big Bang Theory, which I immediately brought me to Sean Stafford, because that was always the example he brought up to make fun of stuff.
• 2:03:08
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:03:09
  Testecleese: But they had a thing where the engineer, Wolowitz, I think was his name.
• 2:03:15
  Testecleese: Designed the toilet for the space station.
• 2:03:18
  Testecleese: And he's like, oh, it's gotta be hardy. I'm like, we're dealing with a space toilet. And he goes, with a bunch of Russians that eat, you know, hearty Russians with a potato-based diet.
• 2:03:30
  Testecleese: But then it failed.
• 2:03:33
  Testecleese: And it just… it made me laugh, but… Let's be real, but…
• 2:03:38
  Testecleese: Toilets don't work the same way in space, do they?
• 2:03:41
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 2:03:42
  Brian McFadden: And it was a $23 million toilet, so…
• 2:03:46
  Testecleese: What's crazy, it's only the second most expensive Toyota ever made.
• 2:03:49
  Brian McFadden: Right. Second.
• 2:03:52
  Testecleese: I don't know what… I'm genuinely curious, because I didn't read the whole article.
• 2:03:56
  Brian McFadden: I don't even know if it's golden…
• 2:03:57
  Testecleese: Toilet?
• 2:03:58
  Brian McFadden: Let me look… I don't know, it's gotta be in here. Let me look at this article.
• 2:04:01
  Testecleese: It's got… it mentions in there that it's the second most expensive toilet ever, right?
• 2:04:06
  Repeat Offender: I think it was my main question.
• 2:04:07
  Brian McFadden: It was 3D printed.
• 2:04:11
  Testecleese: I'm just wondering if the number…
• 2:04:12
  Brian McFadden: First model!
• 2:04:13
  Testecleese: Well, it was.
• 2:04:14
  Brian McFadden: It was on the International Space Station in 2020, and that cost $11.5 million.
• 2:04:21
  Brian McFadden: Wasn't the other one $23 million? That's be…
• 2:04:25
  Testecleese: Oh, so maybe that's why it's the second most expensive, then.
• 2:04:29
  Brian McFadden: Okay, but it's not the actual… Ex- most expensive.
• 2:04:34
  Testecleese: No, the first one was, right?
• 2:04:36
  Brian McFadden: No, it was only 11… oh.
• 2:04:38
  Testecleese: Okay, so…
• 2:04:39
  Brian McFadden: Oh, no, no, Space Shuttle Endeavors Waste Collector System.
• 2:04:43
  Brian McFadden: Which it debuted in 1992, cost $30 million to create and install, but adjusted for inflation, had been $70 million.
• 2:04:52
  Brian McFadden: in 2026.
• 2:04:54
  Brian McFadden: That's why they're coming up with this ridiculous number.
• 2:04:56
  Testecleese: You need a proper seal.
• 2:04:59
  Testecleese: And… and vacuum to be able to safely poop in space, right?
• 2:05:06
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:05:07
  Testecleese: Like, urine would be gross enough, but at least you could catch that in a bag if you want.
• 2:05:10
  Brian McFadden: Well, that's what they switched to when the thing froze up. They switched to bags to pee in.
• 2:05:17
  Testecleese: To peeing? Can you imagine taking a dump in that thing?
• 2:05:21
  Testecleese: And then what do you do with it? Throw it out the window?
• 2:05:24
  Brian McFadden: How many dumps do you think they took when they were eating freeze-dried food for 10 days?
• 2:05:30
  Testecleese: They're still poopin'!
• 2:05:31
  Brian McFadden: Not as often… not every day.
• 2:05:33
  Testecleese: No, it might be hard as a rock, but they're still poopin'!
• 2:05:36
  Brian McFadden: Not every day.
• 2:05:37
  Repeat Offender: I bet they're…
• 2:05:38
  Brian McFadden: Once or twice in 10 days on that crappy diet they were on.
• 2:05:44
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, well, I don't reckon it'd be enough to burn them up.
• 2:05:48
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, I mean, they weren't gone long, right?
• 2:05:51
  Brian McFadden: Only 10 days.
• 2:05:52
  Testecleese: tend to, you know.
• 2:05:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, and I kept hearing… everyone kept talking about the moon, the moon, like, we're going to the moon, and I'm like, this is a different thing altogether.
• 2:06:02
  Repeat Offender: Are you?
• 2:06:03
  Brian McFadden: I didn't even land on the moon!
• 2:06:05
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm not even sure why we did this.
• 2:06:08
  Brian McFadden: Just orbiting the moon and came back. More intel about setting up our moon base.
• 2:06:14
  Testecleese: Yeah, the mother-in-law was telling me that they got pictures of the dark side of the moon.
• 2:06:19
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 2:06:20
  Testecleese: And I was like, how?
• 2:06:21
  Brian McFadden: They flew around it.
• 2:06:23
  Testecleese: Yeah, bro.
• 2:06:24
  Repeat Offender: circumnavigated it.
• 2:06:25
  Testecleese: But there's no sunlight.
• 2:06:27
  Brian McFadden: They did it with the iPhone.
• 2:06:29
  Testecleese: It'd be complete blackness.
• 2:06:31
  Brian McFadden: They did it with the iPhone.
• 2:06:33
  Testecleese: No, yeah, okay, cool, your iPhone!
• 2:06:36
  Testecleese: You're getting a picture of a black circle on the dark side of the moon, right?
• 2:06:41
  Repeat Offender: Nope, nope.
• 2:06:41
  Testecleese: No light on it! Huh?
• 2:06:43
  Repeat Offender: Not unless it's… not unless it's a Samsung.
• 2:06:46
  Repeat Offender: Was it… no.
• 2:06:48
  Testecleese: You who need.
• 2:06:49
  Brian McFadden: Sands weren't authorized on the mission.
• 2:06:53
  Testecleese: It's a Korean, right?
• 2:06:55
  Repeat Offender: Send it back.
• 2:06:57
  Repeat Offender: Yes, I miss it.
• 2:06:59
  Brian McFadden: Hit it.
• 2:06:59
  Testecleese: recently that, like, Korea… South Korea's, like, entire economy is Samsung.
• 2:07:04
  Brian McFadden: I'm sure it is.
• 2:07:05
  Testecleese: It's something like 40% of their income, of their, economy, is Samsung bringing in money. I'm like, fuck!
• 2:07:12
  Brian McFadden: And this amphibious transport dock ship, LPD26,
• 2:07:18
  Brian McFadden: John P. Murtha, they were…
• 2:07:22
  Brian McFadden: They were the ones that, took the Navy divers out there, and they were the ones that were picking up the, Orion spacecraft.
• 2:07:34
  Testecleese: Yeah, and this guy, John Murtha, who was he?
• 2:07:38
  Brian McFadden: I don't know.
• 2:07:39
  Testecleese: They made a… I know, they made a big… he's some Pennsylvania guy.
• 2:07:42
  Brian McFadden: Let me look it up.
• 2:07:44
  Testecleese: I know, I just opened it up,
• 2:07:46
  Testecleese: Oh, late and long-serving Pennsylvania Congressman John P. Murthy.
• 2:07:51
  Brian McFadden: He was a Marine Corps veteran.
• 2:07:54
  Testecleese: Okay.
• 2:07:55
  Brian McFadden: He died in 2010, and he lived from 1932 to 1910. He was a Democrat.
• 2:08:04
  Testecleese: But, hey, I got no problem with that. That's… you don't usually.
• 2:08:07
  Brian McFadden: He was a veteran of the Vietnam War, retired as a colonel. Well, this was the older generation of Democrats, so he was probably…
• 2:08:17
  Testecleese: It was different. It was different. He would be conservative by today's standards.
• 2:08:20
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:08:21
  Testecleese: Which is exactly the thing I keep bringing up with the whole ask not what you can do for your country, what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.
• 2:08:30
  Testecleese: No way the Democrats would elect, Kennedy today.
• 2:08:34
  Testecleese: No way.
• 2:08:35
  Brian McFadden: -Oh.
• 2:08:36
  Testecleese: I don't think they would elect a Clinton or Obama today.
• 2:08:40
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, too far left, they're going now.
• 2:08:43
  Testecleese: Yeah, Obama was the deporter…
• 2:08:45
  Testecleese: Still, on this point in Trump's second presidency. He hasn't deported as many people as Obama had.
• 2:08:52
  Brian McFadden: Never will.
• 2:08:54
  Repeat Offender: I think it's more than that, mate. You look at even Obama, just before this last election, 24, Obama went and tried and hit up all those black American guys, remember? And he got a negative report from it.
• 2:09:04
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 2:09:05
  Repeat Offender: Not one of them paid attention to it.
• 2:09:08
  Testecleese: Oh, this is because it wasn't the black population that voted Obama into office, it was liberal white women.
• 2:09:15
  Repeat Offender: Yes.
• 2:09:16
  Brian McFadden: They felt bad.
• 2:09:17
  Testecleese: about themselves.
• 2:09:18
  Brian McFadden: There was a sweeping presidential immunity ruling from SCOTUS.
• 2:09:23
  Testecleese: That was a while ago.
• 2:09:25
  Testecleese: Oh.
• 2:09:25
  Brian McFadden: What are we talking about this week?
• 2:09:27
  Testecleese: Well, they're talking about now how these folks, whichever article this is, ABC, thinks that…
• 2:09:36
  Testecleese: Trump is trying to push the line to seize as much power as possible now, because the Supreme Court confirmed, or affirmed, that the president is immune
• 2:09:47
  Testecleese: from prosecution while undertaking official duties as President of the United States. We talked about this, like, a year ago.
• 2:09:54
  Brian McFadden: Easy, yeah.
• 2:09:56
  Testecleese: That's what this is referring to.
• 2:09:58
  Testecleese: They're saying that he's grabbing as much power as he can. I was like, I don't know what you're talking about, the judicial system?
• 2:10:04
  Testecleese: is… Taking up as much power as possible.
• 2:10:08
  Testecleese: How is it possible that a fucking bench judge, a bench federal judge in, like, Pennsylvania could overrule the President of the United States left and right?
• 2:10:17
  Brian McFadden: That's what they're trying to do.
• 2:10:19
  Testecleese: It's ridiculous.
• 2:10:20
  Brian McFadden: It is.
• 2:10:22
  Testecleese: Let me go.
• 2:10:22
  Repeat Offender: Look what the auto pen… look what the auto pen did.
• 2:10:27
  Testecleese: I know!
• 2:10:28
  Brian McFadden: All depended, good shit.
• 2:10:31
  Testecleese: But, like, for real, what do the Democrats stand for right now? Like, what's their platform that they're running on?
• 2:10:37
  Brian McFadden: PDS.
• 2:10:39
  Brian McFadden: Height drop? Yes.
• 2:10:40
  Testecleese: Yeah, that's the problem, that's why there's no… that's why they're having so much frickin' crazy shit happen. And now, I…
• 2:10:47
  Testecleese: Something I saw recently, it was an interview with folks, none of them could say what they actually stand for. Right. They were just more willing or more likely to vote for a candidate because they could beat the Republican candidate.
• 2:11:00
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 2:11:01
  Testecleese: And I was like, that's ridiculous. They might…
• 2:11:04
  Brian McFadden: That's not a good campaign to run on.
• 2:11:06
  Testecleese: NO!
• 2:11:09
  Repeat Offender: But you look at the amount of shutdowns they've had now, too.
• 2:11:12
  Repeat Offender: And they, like, every time they put on a shutdown in the last, what, year or so, it's always come back on them. They try to blame it on Trump, and it's always come back onto them.
• 2:11:22
  Testecleese: Maybe I… that's what I should do. I should finally go ahead and run for office, but run for, federal Congress as a Democrat in West Virginia.
• 2:11:30
  Testecleese: And when everyone starts to look at me funny in West Virginia, I'll be like, I'm like a 1990s Democrat.
• 2:11:37
  Repeat Offender: Wear your hoodie.
• 2:11:39
  Testecleese: the left wing are out of their mind, but we need someone to say, hey, you guys are going a little too far over there too, you know what I mean?
• 2:11:47
  Repeat Offender: Wear a hoodie.
• 2:11:50
  Testecleese: Betterman style.
• 2:11:52
  Repeat Offender: Yay!
• 2:11:54
  Testecleese: Yeah, a hoodie and shorts.
• 2:11:57
  Testecleese: Exactly! Fuck, did Fetterman beat me to it? Is he actually…
• 2:12:01
  Testecleese: Well, you know, Fetterman is a 1990s Democrat, though, isn't he? Let's be real.
• 2:12:06
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:12:07
  Repeat Offender: He's old.
• 2:12:07
  Testecleese: How did he win in Pennsylvania? Was it because of the stroke?
• 2:12:10
  Brian McFadden: Probably. No, I think he won because he was a Democrat.
• 2:12:14
  Repeat Offender: Yes.
• 2:12:15
  Brian McFadden: With or without a strobe.
• 2:12:16
  Testecleese: Oh, he already had the nomination by then?
• 2:12:18
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:12:21
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, you too.
• 2:12:24
  Testecleese: I mean, that's too bad what happened to that man, for real, but he actually has had an amazing recovery. Good for him.
• 2:12:31
  Testecleese: And he's a Democrat, I'm actually… I got a feeling I could actually sit down with and have a conversation with who won't just call me names.
• 2:12:38
  Repeat Offender: He's the only Democrat I put forth for presidential candidacy.
• 2:12:44
  Testecleese: Ro Khanna.
• 2:12:47
  Repeat Offender: Maybe. I reckon Fetterman outshot him with bloody…
• 2:12:50
  Repeat Offender: few things now. I think Shapiro's gone, or I don't think he'll be up there.
• 2:12:54
  Testecleese: Hey, I'm telling you, Tulsi Gabbard is gonna go back Democrat after this MAGA thing is over, and she's gonna make a run for office.
• 2:13:03
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, she'd be decent. She'd be a decent candidate, too.
• 2:13:07
  Testecleese: Yeah, she actually has a chance to win.
• 2:13:10
  Testecleese: Instead of some fucking far-left nut job, you know what I mean?
• 2:13:15
  Testecleese: And… we brought this up before, Brian. I was like, the Democrats need to run Tulsi Gabbard, who's what I was saying for how long, right?
• 2:13:21
  Brian McFadden: Right,
• 2:13:22
  Testecleese: To the point where she's like, fuck it, I'm a Republican now.
• 2:13:26
  Brian McFadden: European.
• 2:13:27
  Repeat Offender: quite ostracized quite a bit, though, there.
• 2:13:30
  Repeat Offender: They ostracized.
• 2:13:31
  Testecleese: Sure.
• 2:13:32
  Repeat Offender: Of course.
• 2:13:32
  Testecleese: Yeah, and the Dems are not, a big fan of the prodigal son.
• 2:13:37
  Repeat Offender: No, they're not in forgiveness.
• 2:13:40
  Testecleese: Oh, you're supposed to love the prodigal son more for having left and come back.
• 2:13:46
  Testecleese: I'm sure only Christians would get that reference. I hope you did, Brian.
• 2:13:52
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
• 2:13:53
  Testecleese: Alright, I got a feeling you know Scripture as well as I do, you just interpret it differently.
• 2:13:58
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 2:14:00
  Testecleese: Like, check this out, repeat offender.
• 2:14:04
  Testecleese: Brian doesn't believe in evolution.
• 2:14:08
  Repeat Offender: That's a high mark.
• 2:14:09
  Brian McFadden: Catholic, you shouldn't believe it either.
• 2:14:11
  Testecleese: No, I… I have an easy explanation for this. One.
• 2:14:18
  Testecleese: No man can understand God's plan. Two, what is a day to God at the creation of the universe? It's not a day to man, because it was before days existed. A day could have been 100 million years.
• 2:14:32
  Testecleese: I'm just… and then when he said, let there be men, boom, that's when it happened.
• 2:14:37
  Brian McFadden: I bet you agree with telehealth abortion, too.
• 2:14:41
  Testecleese: Fuck you and your couch, okay?
• 2:14:44
  Testecleese: Abortion is wrong, and I don't understand how…
• 2:14:48
  Testecleese: I'm still not even sure what this article says. Apparently, they're still allowed to sell their…
• 2:14:52
  Testecleese: day… morning after pill, nationwide, even in states where it's illegal? Is that what just happened?
• 2:14:58
  Brian McFadden: Yep, and they're doing it via telehealth.
• 2:15:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, but telehealth? You're getting an abortion over the phone? Is that what that is?
• 2:15:06
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 2:15:08
  Brian McFadden: You're meeting with a doctor over the phone, and they're prescribing the pill to your local pharmacy.
• 2:15:13
  Testecleese: Oh, so, like, Colorado's prescribing the medication, and you're getting it filled in Arizona, for example.
• 2:15:21
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:15:23
  Testecleese: Oh, no… No, okay, well, the court can… I guess the court can say they're allowed to write their…
• 2:15:33
  Testecleese: prescriptions, the mail is allowed to carry it, but…
• 2:15:36
  Testecleese: The states can come out and say, the pharmacy is not allowed to have that product on their shelf.
• 2:15:43
  Testecleese: Right. So you'd have to have it shipped directly to your house, which I think is… illegal, right?
• 2:15:50
  Brian McFadden: Across the state lines with it.
• 2:15:53
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, you have to pick up medication at a licensed pharmacy, you can't get.
• 2:15:57
  Brian McFadden: There's mail-order pharmacies. I get my prescriptions mail-ordered to me in Virginia from the military.
• 2:16:05
  Testecleese: See, that seems… that's…
• 2:16:07
  Testecleese: That seems wrong, and I see problems coming about because of this, and oh, look, we're mailing abortion pills to where abortion is illegal.
• 2:16:14
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 2:16:16
  Brian McFadden: What could possibly go wrong?
• 2:16:20
  Testecleese: I don't know, does that mean I can get my… glaucoma prescription?
• 2:16:25
  Testecleese: for marijuana out of California, delivered to a state where marijuana's illegal, 100%?
• 2:16:34
  Brian McFadden: There are companies that do that already.
• 2:16:37
  Testecleese: Really? I mean, I know these guys that sell that… THCA.
• 2:16:41
  Brian McFadden: No, no, no, there's other companies out there that mill-order weed all through the 50 states.
• 2:16:47
  Brian McFadden: You ordered online? That's a really good way.
• 2:16:49
  Testecleese: Sounds like a really good way to get in a lot of trouble, because it's illegal federally, right? Yeah. And to use the postal system to do that sounds like…
• 2:16:58
  Testecleese: Holy shit, that sounds like mail fraud.
• 2:17:02
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, it's a catch-22, isn't it? Like, if you use a private delivery service.
• 2:17:06
  Repeat Offender: That's what they could get done, but if you use federal mail.
• 2:17:09
  Testecleese: Good point. UPS and FedEx are a real thing.
• 2:17:13
  Repeat Offender: Yeah.
• 2:17:15
  Testecleese: And what's the other one? Hertz?
• 2:17:17
  Testecleese: That you never see anymore?
• 2:17:20
  Testecleese: With, like, an orange truck or something.
• 2:17:23
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, they don't do shit.
• 2:17:24
  Testecleese: Yeah, you see M1 every now and then, you're like, shit, they still exist? Like, what do they actually do? You know?
• 2:17:34
  Testecleese: Yeah, interesting. I didn't even… I didn't even think of private delivery companies, parcel companies.
• 2:17:40
  Testecleese: But yeah, exactly, United Parcel Service, UPS, could deliver for… but…
• 2:17:47
  Testecleese: But they can still get nabbed by the state.
• 2:17:50
  Testecleese: For having this product in a state where it's illegal, though, right?
• 2:17:54
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:17:55
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, UPS trucks are gonna get pulled over and searched.
• 2:17:58
  Testecleese: Yeah, but you need a reason to search.
• 2:18:01
  Testecleese: So, like, they'll find ways to look for it.
• 2:18:05
  Testecleese: They will… I'm predicting this. The states will find ways to crack down on this, and it's going to, increase delivery time.
• 2:18:14
  Testecleese: It's going to increase cost for everything else.
• 2:18:18
  Testecleese: Until… These, third-party companies stop doing it to states where it's illegal.
• 2:18:25
  Testecleese: Like, we're not doing it because it's…
• 2:18:28
  Repeat Offender: It's like finding the noodle in the haystack. They're not gonna… they're not… they won't take it on. There's ways around everything.
• 2:18:35
  Testecleese: Yeah, but all you need is, like, one truck to get into an accident. Like, we just had a UPS truck go off the road,
• 2:18:41
  Testecleese: Like, 30 feet down the side of the mountain before a tree stopped it.
• 2:18:45
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 2:18:46
  Testecleese: It's… what's great is my… my brand new phone that I just got.
• 2:18:51
  Testecleese: was in it, and check this out. I got this on purpose. It's a little door that protects your cameras that you have to open, so I don't… my last one, I accidentally scratched the lens. I was like, fuck, I can't!
• 2:19:04
  Testecleese: But, this one had stupid insurance on it, so they had it in a special case to keep it safe.
• 2:19:10
  Testecleese: But at that point, now, the government has the authority to inspect the… the cargo.
• 2:19:17
  Testecleese: Because they're handling the… all you need to do is find one thing that shouldn't be here, and now they have the,
• 2:19:24
  Testecleese: The circumstances to search the entire… Shippings facility.
• 2:19:30
  Testecleese: You know what I mean?
• 2:19:32
  Testecleese: Like, shit'll come up, and then, as soon as all of a sudden, they're like, oh, we found abortion pills on this, this wrecked truck, we're gonna come…
• 2:19:40
  Testecleese: Check out the local distribution plant where you ship it out of.
• 2:19:43
  Testecleese: you know, where it gets shipped into. Well, then we just found 7,000 more. You're either gonna pay a $20 million or $200 million fine.
• 2:19:54
  Testecleese: You're gonna go out of business, or you're gonna agree to stop doing this in this state.
• 2:20:00
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, look, I get that, mate, I fully understand what you're saying, but I can't see him waking up one day and say, oh, let's pull over a UPS truck. Randomly.
• 2:20:07
  Testecleese: pull over! Wait for an accident to happen. Wait for…
• 2:20:10
  Testecleese: Or any reason, ANY reason that you could search this thing.
• 2:20:16
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, but you're still… They'll come up on…
• 2:20:18
  Testecleese: their own.
• 2:20:19
  Repeat Offender: You know, you can't just say, oh, let's just open up every parcel.
• 2:20:26
  Testecleese: Well, if, if, if there's a…
• 2:20:28
  Testecleese: For example, a big rig tried to go under a bridge that was too low, right?
• 2:20:33
  Testecleese: And they're delivering to the distribution center with the, you know, the big 18-wheeler.
• 2:20:37
  Testecleese: They're gonna find out what is in that entire truck before they even try to take care of it, because…
• 2:20:43
  Testecleese: For all they know, it's full… for all they know, it's full of mercury.
• 2:20:46
  Repeat Offender: You'd have to have a log, saying what you're carrying, how much you're carrying, and…
• 2:20:49
  Testecleese: Exactly, and they'll look at that, so they don't even need to search it. And if these companies start hiding that, then they get real fucked, because now you're breaking the law and trying to hide it, that's,
• 2:21:00
  Testecleese: Get nailed twice thing.
• 2:21:03
  Testecleese: But, I'm just saying, if they're shipping this stuff.
• 2:21:07
  Testecleese: The states are gonna find a way to crack down on it.
• 2:21:14
  Testecleese: Some, anyway.
• 2:21:15
  Testecleese: Because, I mean, let's be real, if they outlawed abortion, Except for, you know.
• 2:21:20
  Testecleese: certain circumstances, which I would claim is not an abortion at that point.
• 2:21:25
  Testecleese: You know, the woman will die, it's not an abortion, that's a medical procedure to save a woman's life, and unfortunately, the baby died.
• 2:21:33
  Testecleese: You know?
• 2:21:38
  Testecleese: Yeah, if they went as far as to make it illegal.
• 2:21:41
  Testecleese: And they're gonna do something to make sure that you're not just getting it from California or Colorado.
• 2:21:47
  Brian McFadden: charts.
• 2:21:48
  Repeat Offender: Hey, I've got to head out shortly, guys. Did you just hear about that Ben Roberts Smith from Australia?
• 2:21:53
  Testecleese: No.
• 2:21:54
  Repeat Offender: Special Forces.
• 2:21:56
  Repeat Offender: Dude, I think I'll send you guys some stuff.
• 2:21:58
  Testecleese: Maybe.
• 2:21:59
  Repeat Offender: Special…
• 2:21:59
  Brian McFadden: Sent too much stuff.
• 2:22:02
  Repeat Offender: Oh, mate, I was just getting overboard. I was getting too excited.
• 2:22:05
  Repeat Offender: No, well, what happened was, our special, special forces, dude, this happened back in, Afghanistan.
• 2:22:12
  Repeat Offender: Remember when there was blue and green attacks, where…
• 2:22:15
  Repeat Offender: the Taliban, they were invading as Afghanistani soldiers.
• 2:22:20
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 2:22:21
  Repeat Offender: And they were killing people on base. Like, they killed 5 Australian servicemen before they got gunned down.
• 2:22:27
  Repeat Offender: Yeah. They come on, dressed up as the Afghanistani army, we were training them.
• 2:22:32
  Repeat Offender: And they kill our blokes on base.
• 2:22:35
  Repeat Offender: So a couple of them escaped.
• 2:22:37
  Repeat Offender: and they sent out, like, Ben Roberts, and he's the only people allowed outside the…
• 2:22:41
  Repeat Offender: The camps and that were, Special Forces, so they sent out Ben Robertson, another crew on that, and they got him.
• 2:22:47
  Repeat Offender: And this… Weak-ass piss-week reporter.
• 2:22:52
  Repeat Offender: try to make a story saying that they killed these Taliban, or whoever it were, in cold blood.
• 2:22:58
  Repeat Offender: So now, we've got a… we've got a special armed service force, Officer.
• 2:23:04
  Repeat Offender: He's the highest decorated soldier in the Australian defense Force.
• 2:23:08
  Repeat Offender: Wow. A hoist.
• 2:23:10
  Repeat Offender: like, he's got the Victorian Cross, that's the highest award you could get.
• 2:23:14
  Repeat Offender: Now he's facing life imprisonment for doing what he was told to do.
• 2:23:20
  Testecleese: Yeah, the illegals order thing, but…
• 2:23:23
  Testecleese: These guys came and slaughtered your people.
• 2:23:27
  Testecleese: You cannot capture them all by yourself.
• 2:23:33
  Testecleese: And you gotta be certain, they fired at him as soon as they knew where he was, too.
• 2:23:38
  Testecleese: Like, it's not even, like.
• 2:23:40
  Repeat Offender: Cool.
• 2:23:41
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 2:23:42
  Repeat Offender: Well, basically, what happened was, mate.
• 2:23:45
  Testecleese: When did this happen?
• 2:23:47
  Repeat Offender: About 10 years ago, but they broke…
• 2:23:50
  Testecleese: Now he's being brought… and now they're trying to bring him to justice?
• 2:23:52
  Repeat Offender: $300 million the government spent on trying to get this guy, Ben Robert Smith.
• 2:23:58
  Repeat Offender: The ABC, it's like the BBC and CBC and all that sort of stuff, our TV station, national TV station.
• 2:24:05
  Repeat Offender: They got caught trying to get another Special Armed Forces guy who did the same thing.
• 2:24:10
  Repeat Offender: But they got caught putting gunshots in the actual video.
• 2:24:15
  Repeat Offender: But what the evidence said they had?
• 2:24:17
  Brian McFadden: So they're adding special effects.
• 2:24:19
  Repeat Offender: Yay!
• 2:24:20
  Repeat Offender: They paid some guy $700,000,
• 2:24:24
  Repeat Offender: to go and give up a story, to go against what this Ben Roberts Smith and these other guys are doing. They've been caught on that.
• 2:24:31
  Repeat Offender: Yet, in a civil court case, Ben Roberts Smith got found guilty, And now he's been.
• 2:24:36
  Testecleese: What's what?
• 2:24:36
  Repeat Offender: go to criminal charges.
• 2:24:38
  Repeat Offender: Manslaughter. Cold-blooded. Killing.
• 2:24:42
  Testecleese: Okay, well, okay, that would be a criminal court here, not civil court.
• 2:24:46
  Repeat Offender: It's going now to Criminal Court.
• 2:24:49
  Testecleese: Well, Sybil is usually like, I'm suing you because of something.
• 2:24:54
  Repeat Offender: Now it's going to criminal. The AFP have stepped in, the Australian Federal Police have now stepped in.
• 2:24:59
  Repeat Offender: They charged him, they arrested him. He's in jail now.
• 2:25:03
  Repeat Offender: Waiting a bail court appearance.
• 2:25:04
  Testecleese: Does the government have any authority at all?
• 2:25:07
  Testecleese: like… Can you pardon like the president can?
• 2:25:13
  Repeat Offender: It's not.
• 2:25:15
  Testecleese: So you can't say, no, no, whatever, it doesn't matter, it's gone. There's no way for this to happen?
• 2:25:22
  Repeat Offender: It's the only one who can do that, it's the High Court. It's like your Supreme Court.
• 2:25:26
  Testecleese: Yeah, that's… that's… that's not a pardon, that's a… we're deciding what the law is now because of this.
• 2:25:33
  Repeat Offender: It's the only way it can be done.
• 2:25:34
  Repeat Offender: You cannot even get through GG.
• 2:25:36
  Testecleese: You need the king to literally step in at this point to say, drop it.
• 2:25:40
  Repeat Offender: King… King couldn't even do it.
• 2:25:42
  Testecleese: I don't know, the king can dissolve your parliament.
• 2:25:45
  Repeat Offender: No, the Governor-General can on the King's behalf.
• 2:25:48
  Repeat Offender: Shh, sir.
• 2:25:49
  Testecleese: Yeah, same thing.
• 2:25:51
  Repeat Offender: King can't actually come into Australia and do it. It's got to go through the General… the Governor-General.
• 2:25:56
  Testecleese: Yeah, who's gonna do exactly what the king says, so it's the same thing as the king doing it.
• 2:26:01
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, but they've got to have a reason to do it. There's gotta be, like, some sort of…
• 2:26:05
  Testecleese: Just like, everyone remembers Truman dropped the bombs, but Truman didn't fly either plane. It was pilots that no one remembers their names.
• 2:26:14
  Repeat Offender: Exactly. Exactly.
• 2:26:16
  Testecleese: So, it's still the king doing it, let's be real.
• 2:26:18
  Repeat Offender: This is what it's all about, and, like, this guy, he got told orders to go out with his special forces and either get these guys either alive or dead.
• 2:26:28
  Testecleese: That actually sounds like exactly what we would do, and it would never, ever come up in a courtroom, honestly.
• 2:26:33
  Repeat Offender: You should know.
• 2:26:34
  Testecleese: Even with the shit we're doing, there's no way that would hit a courtroom.
• 2:26:37
  Repeat Offender: Well, this is the biggest uproar about it. These guys went out and did what they had to do.
• 2:26:42
  Repeat Offender: They didn't break any laws. There was no… nothing they did wrong.
• 2:26:45
  Repeat Offender: And now, he's been charged, and it's a flow-on effect. Like, no one's going to want to join our defense forces now.
• 2:26:51
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 2:26:52
  Repeat Offender: Who's going to join up, knowing that you're going to be sent out, and you're going to be criminally convicted?
• 2:26:56
  Repeat Offender: 5 to 10 years later.
• 2:26:58
  Testecleese: You were sent out to possibly die, you survived.
• 2:27:02
  Testecleese: And now you're gonna go to prison for it. It's like, why would I do this at all?
• 2:27:07
  Repeat Offender: Yay.
• 2:27:08
  Testecleese: But I swear to God, the West is doing this on purpose. I swear the entire Western world is demilitarizing.
• 2:27:17
  Brian McFadden: They rely on the United States to take care of them.
• 2:27:22
  Testecleese: Maybe?
• 2:27:23
  Testecleese: Maybe… But even the United States is making the military sound fucking terrible. They have for a long time.
• 2:27:32
  Testecleese: We had a brief period after Vietnam for, like, what, 20, 30 years?
• 2:27:37
  Testecleese: maybe that, people actually, like, looked good upon vets? Now it's a thank you for your service, yeah.
• 2:27:43
  Testecleese: But, like, what kind of just stupid, disgusting shit did you do? You know?
• 2:27:48
  Repeat Offender: I can't wait till you guys play our NATO.
• 2:27:51
  Repeat Offender: No, they don't need to bomb up their arse, mate.
• 2:27:54
  Testecleese: Yeah, we're not leaving NATO.
• 2:27:58
  Repeat Offender: No, I'd be pulling bases out of Europe, mate, left, right, and center.
• 2:28:02
  Repeat Offender: What's good at having them there if you can't use them?
• 2:28:04
  Testecleese: The problem is not enough people have read The Art of the Deal.
• 2:28:08
  Testecleese: This is Trump's thing, the big ask.
• 2:28:12
  Testecleese: You know, this is what's gonna happen if this doesn't happen.
• 2:28:15
  Testecleese: And then they come to the table with a better offer than you wanted in the first place.
• 2:28:20
  Testecleese: But you just never told them what you initially wanted.
• 2:28:23
  Repeat Offender: Well, Nada over there kissing your ass at the moment.
• 2:28:27
  Testecleese: Exactly!
• 2:28:28
  Testecleese: It's exactly the things. We might… I think we're leaving because you guys aren't doing this the right way, and, you know, people are like, oh, NATO doesn't have to get involved, it's a defensive treaty. Yes, but you think your fucking allies would step up and help you in a conflict?
• 2:28:45
  Testecleese: obligated to.
• 2:28:46
  Brian McFadden: But, I mean, this conflict does affect them, because I guarantee oil prices in Europe are a hell of a lot more expensive than they are in the United States right now.
• 2:28:54
  Testecleese: New Zealand is out of fucking fuel!
• 2:28:56
  Repeat Offender: Yeah.
• 2:28:57
  Testecleese: There's no view in New Zealand! They've gone dark!
• 2:29:01
  Repeat Offender: We were close. We just fed about… 20-something days left.
• 2:29:05
  Repeat Offender: Field reserve. We only got 36 days instead of 90 days fuel reserve.
• 2:29:12
  Testecleese: That's, that's the funny thing is, our fuel reserve.
• 2:29:15
  Testecleese: What we publicly publish, It's not what we have put aside for the military.
• 2:29:21
  Testecleese: The military has their own reserve.
• 2:29:24
  Repeat Offender: That stays secret.
• 2:29:25
  Testecleese: That stays secret, yeah.
• 2:29:28
  Repeat Offender: You know what the stupidest thing is? We send crude oil to Singapore to refine it, we send natural gas…
• 2:29:33
  Testecleese: it right back.
• 2:29:35
  Repeat Offender: They ship it back to us. We're paying higher rates.
• 2:29:38
  Repeat Offender: Skateboards, this is the…
• 2:29:40
  Testecleese: This is exactly why Trump did the tariffs, like, skateboards, okay?
• 2:29:44
  Testecleese: They cut down trees.
• 2:29:46
  Testecleese: Excuse me. And, the Pacific Northwest of the United States, like Washington, Oregon, California.
• 2:29:56
  Testecleese: They send it to fucking Canada!
• 2:30:00
  Testecleese: to… to, mill it, you know what I mean? Get it ready? Then they ship it to fucking China.
• 2:30:06
  Testecleese: To tailor it and build the board, then they ship it back to us to buy.
• 2:30:12
  Testecleese: He's like, this is fucking ridiculous. He's like, how many jobs just disappeared?
• 2:30:18
  Testecleese: Because you're hiring Chinese slave labor to do the work.
• 2:30:23
  Repeat Offender: And how much text and bloody…
• 2:30:25
  Repeat Offender: Price increases are going on while you've sent it to 3 different places.
• 2:30:28
  Testecleese: The crazy thing is, I only know this because I follow a particular podcaster who's into skateboarding, and he actually started his own skateboard com- yeah, who started his own skateboard company because of this.
• 2:30:39
  Testecleese: He would actually make $5 more aboard if he shipped him to China.
• 2:30:44
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, I saw that, that show.
• 2:30:46
  Testecleese: Yeah, and he's like, oh, he says it all the time. But he's like, instead, I do it American-made, it creates American jobs, it's a good board, you know? I was like, fuck, I was like, that's just crazy.
• 2:30:56
  Testecleese: And, okay, $5 more. Sounds like a lot on it, but the thing is, the skateboard's, like, 80 bucks, or 40.
• 2:31:02
  Brian McFadden: Five.
• 2:31:02
  Testecleese: or even a.
• 2:31:03
  Brian McFadden: They're not changing.
• 2:31:07
  Testecleese: My skateboard, I got a longboard.
• 2:31:10
  Testecleese: I think I spent, like, paid, like, 140 bucks on it?
• 2:31:14
  Testecleese: Which is great in Virginia and Massachusetts.
• 2:31:18
  Testecleese: Where the biggest hill was, like.
• 2:31:21
  Testecleese: A 30% decline over, like, 50 yards?
• 2:31:27
  Testecleese: I could get around. Like, I actually, like, used to go to and from work on this thing, or go pick up a, you know, a six-pack, put it in my backpack.
• 2:31:34
  Testecleese: Now I'm on a fucking mountaintop, dude, I can't skateboard anywhere.
• 2:31:39
  Repeat Offender: Except Daniel?
• 2:31:42
  Testecleese: No way am I gonna even try it.
• 2:31:44
  Brian McFadden: These are windy, steep.
• 2:31:46
  Testecleese: I bet I would die.
• 2:31:48
  Testecleese: Right.
• 2:31:48
  Repeat Offender: You pussy? Pussy?
• 2:31:50
  Testecleese: Yes, okay, if that's what it means, then yes, alright? Go… come and fuck me. Because, no, dude, these things are serious incline.
• 2:31:59
  Testecleese: And, they're windy-ass roads, and it's sheer rock on one side, and mountainside on the other, covered in trees.
• 2:32:07
  Brian McFadden: It's scary.
• 2:32:08
  Testecleese: It's terrifying to drive in until you get comfortable in the area.
• 2:32:12
  Brian McFadden: When you do it at night.
• 2:32:17
  Repeat Offender: You've got to check out a guy, he did it on Mount Panorama, it's with a V8 series car race, and I've gone around Mount Panorama, it's scary. A guy's gone down it on a skateboard. You have to watch it.
• 2:32:29
  Testecleese: Hmm.
• 2:32:30
  Testecleese: Oh, no, some guys are experts at this, but there's no way I would even attempt this, I would die.
• 2:32:35
  Testecleese: Anyway… So, the…
• 2:32:39
  Testecleese: the Justice Department's looking into the NFL for licensing too many games to, like, cable… Peacock and Peacock and Metz.
• 2:32:48
  Brian McFadden: streaming services, Amazon, Netflix…
• 2:32:51
  Testecleese: services.
• 2:32:52
  Repeat Offender: Disney…
• 2:32:53
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, they're upset about this, and all I can think of is Why?
• 2:32:58
  Testecleese: Why does the Justice Department care where the NFL sells their product?
• 2:33:03
  Brian McFadden: Because the NFL has a special agreement with the federal government Did you pay for it?
• 2:33:09
  Testecleese: Far less tax than a lot of stuff, because they bring in so much money.
• 2:33:12
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:33:14
  Testecleese: So is that what they're worried about? Fewer people are gonna watch it because it costs to watch sometimes?
• 2:33:21
  Testecleese: I think the numbers came out, it was like, 4… only… I say only… 40% of their games, you have to have some kind of paid service to watch.
• 2:33:29
  Brian McFadden: Oh, the NFL just came out and said, I saw this on the news tonight, before the show, that they're saying that 80% of their games are…
• 2:33:38
  Testecleese: 80s.
• 2:33:38
  Brian McFadden: Available on non-paid services.
• 2:33:42
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 2:33:42
  Brian McFadden: All local games are available to local people, but the problem is.
• 2:33:48
  Testecleese: I've always noticed.
• 2:33:49
  Brian McFadden: The world ain't local anymore.
• 2:33:52
  Testecleese: Yeah, nothing's… that's for damn skippy, what, they're playing in Australia, or just did?
• 2:33:58
  Repeat Offender: We've got a game coming up, San Francisco and LA, Rams.
• 2:34:01
  Brian McFadden: But what I'm saying is, like, the NFL fan base is based…
• 2:34:07
  Brian McFadden: I mean, I just moved back to my local area after 30 years, you know? It's like…
• 2:34:14
  Brian McFadden: I had to rely on NFL Sunny Ticket and bars to… and the VFW to see my games that I wanted to see.
• 2:34:23
  Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, that's expensive, let's be real.
• 2:34:27
  Repeat Offender: So you're fighting.
• 2:34:28
  Brian McFadden: It didn't start out expensive.
• 2:34:31
  Testecleese: Sunday ticket's always been expensive.
• 2:34:33
  Brian McFadden: No, I haven't.
• 2:34:33
  Repeat Offender: Australia, we've got laws, government laws, like, we've got to have a lot of our sport on free to air, TV.
• 2:34:40
  Repeat Offender: We've got 3DM.
• 2:34:41
  Testecleese: We do, apparently we do too, but that's because they're getting subsidized.
• 2:34:45
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, but we've got to have so many games, so… we watch your NFL on…
• 2:34:50
  Repeat Offender: Channel 7 here, Monday morning.
• 2:34:52
  Repeat Offender: That's a freed air station, but we also get it on, like, Disney services, EPL Soccer from England, we get it on Paramount.
• 2:35:02
  Repeat Offender: But we also, like, we get it on a channel called SBS, that's a world channel, like… Oh, every now and every now and then…
• 2:35:09
  Testecleese: Every now and then, I'll watch an Australian sport live on one of my streaming services, because it's there. I'm like, like, oh, the World Cricket Championship is in Australia. I'm like, why the fuck not watch? I know how the game works, at least, you know?
• 2:35:23
  Brian McFadden: Rugby's more exciting.
• 2:35:25
  Testecleese: Rugby is more exciting, but… I think rugby gets too much credit over, American football.
• 2:35:32
  Repeat Offender: Not enough.
• 2:35:33
  Testecleese: It's a different… it's a different game altogether.
• 2:35:35
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, it definitely is.
• 2:35:37
  Testecleese: It really is.
• 2:35:38
  Brian McFadden: Definitely a different game.
• 2:35:39
  Repeat Offender: That's why we're.
• 2:35:40
  Testecleese: I'm trying to compare the two, and I'm like, they're not the same… they're not the same game.
• 2:35:44
  Brian McFadden: No, not at all. I never said they were.
• 2:35:46
  Testecleese: I know, but that's like comparing… there's always a comparison. I'm like, yeah, that's comparing cricket to baseball. It's not the same game.
• 2:35:54
  Repeat Offender: Probably the only difference is the revenue.
• 2:35:56
  Testecleese: everything.
• 2:35:57
  Repeat Offender: Well, we've got Rugby League and Rugby Union. They're two different codes of sport.
• 2:36:03
  Repeat Offender: Rugby league's completely different than Rugby union, but they still share the same rugby, or football, you know what I mean? Like…
• 2:36:09
  Testecleese: Oh, like the, AFC and the NFC?
• 2:36:13
  Repeat Offender: Yeah, well, no.
• 2:36:14
  Testecleese: American League and the National League?
• 2:36:16
  Repeat Offender: No, no, it's not conferences, they're just different codes of football, like, there's different.
• 2:36:20
  Brian McFadden: Well, we got the, we got the.
• 2:36:22
  Testecleese: rules.
• 2:36:23
  Brian McFadden: We got the NFL, and we got the… the… not XFL, the USFL.
• 2:36:29
  Testecleese: gone.
• 2:36:29
  Brian McFadden: R.
• 2:36:30
  Testecleese: That's good, that's good.
• 2:36:31
  Brian McFadden: The United States Football League's still around.
• 2:36:34
  Testecleese: Yeah, and Canadians have a football league, too.
• 2:36:38
  Repeat Offender: Yeah. But they play like your American football, don't they?
• 2:36:41
  Testecleese: Yeah, it's American football, but that's the way.
• 2:36:43
  Brian McFadden: Well, they got whole different rules.
• 2:36:45
  Testecleese: No, yeah, and then there's Arena Football, you ever seen that?
• 2:36:49
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 2:36:50
  Repeat Offender: It's crazy!
• 2:36:52
  Testecleese: Crazy, weird rules!
• 2:36:55
  Repeat Offender: The lingerie footie, I like that.
• 2:36:57
  Testecleese: Well, if I'm ever referring to football.
• 2:37:01
  Testecleese: I will call it soccer, okay?
• 2:37:03
  Repeat Offender: That's how we keep them.
• 2:37:05
  Testecleese: different, okay?
• 2:37:06
  Repeat Offender: Whoa!
• 2:37:07
  Testecleese: we already… trust me, we already talked about soccer today, because Mamdani's rules in New York City about the soccer game coming up has made it so that the American public is not welcome to, celebrate the 4th of July for the 250th anniversary.
• 2:37:21
  Brian McFadden: Not at Central Park!
• 2:37:25
  Repeat Offender: Oh, yeah.
• 2:37:28
  Repeat Offender: What?
• 2:37:29
  Testecleese: Yo!
• 2:37:31
  Testecleese: I know!
• 2:37:33
  Repeat Offender: Oh, this'll be over… this has got to be overturned.
• 2:37:37
  Repeat Offender: How many people do you reckon will still turn up?
• 2:37:41
  Repeat Offender: How many law enforcement officers.
• 2:37:43
  Testecleese: Thousands. Thousands are gonna be there anyway. Because, no, your average person has no idea that this… the law he passed…
• 2:37:50
  Testecleese: includes this.
• 2:37:52
  Testecleese: Like, he did an executive thing
• 2:37:55
  Testecleese: To keep it safe for the soccer thing, though, FISA or FIFO or whatever?
• 2:38:00
  Brian McFadden: Favor.
• 2:38:01
  Testecleese: Pfeiffer.
• 2:38:03
  Repeat Offender: National Guardian.
• 2:38:03
  Testecleese: Most popular game on the planet, I respect that, I just personally think the game's stupid. That's… that's just me. I get everyone else loves it, okay? I'm the weirdo, I get it.
• 2:38:15
  Testecleese: It was, what, like, the fourth most popular sport in our country?
• 2:38:19
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 2:38:20
  Repeat Offender: It's the most popular sport in the world.
• 2:38:22
  Testecleese: That's what…
• 2:38:22
  Repeat Offender: So, fishing.
• 2:38:23
  Testecleese: Dad.
• 2:38:28
  Testecleese: I just… I just don't get the game. And then, like, the game ends, but it doesn't really end.
• 2:38:33
  Testecleese: Now we have penalty time. And it's like, what the fuck?
• 2:38:39
  Repeat Offender: I like when they take dives, mate. They show comparison football of bloody soccer versus rugby league, and the hits we put on, and the hits they go down on.
• 2:38:48
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, here's the thing is, you can get hurt really bad playing soccer. You really get. You can break your leg something nasty playing that game.
• 2:38:56
  Repeat Offender: What, break a nail or two?
• 2:38:58
  Testecleese: No, well, I mean, you really could get hurt pretty bad, but…
• 2:39:02
  Testecleese: the dives these guys take is NBA style.
• 2:39:05
  Testecleese: Like, oh, oh, I'm hurt so bad, it's like, dude…
• 2:39:09
  Testecleese: If you got hurt as bad as you were claiming you did, that man would have broken your leg with that leg sweep, or whatever the slide tackle, whatever it is they call.
• 2:39:16
  Brian McFadden: You know?
• 2:39:17
  Repeat Offender: WWE store.
• 2:39:18
  Testecleese: Yeah, I was like… Versus, yeah, you watch rugby or American football, like…
• 2:39:25
  Testecleese: dude completely mashed his finger into garbage in that 30 seconds of action, you know what I mean? And kept… kept playing until the whistle blew, you know?
• 2:39:36
  Repeat Offender: Broken jaw, busted jaw, busted face.
• 2:39:39
  Testecleese: Yeah!
• 2:39:39
  Repeat Offender: Explain for another 80 minutes.
• 2:39:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, I…
• 2:39:44
  Testecleese: That's the thing, is you guys need to wear helmets, but the problem is, if you stop putting on the hard protective helmets, that means you need to start adding a whole bunch of other pads, because the helmet becomes a weapon real fast.
• 2:39:55
  Repeat Offender: You know? You just put on a jumper, mate, pair of shorts and socks.
• 2:39:58
  Repeat Offender: Pair of footy boots, that's it, that's all we wear.
• 2:40:00
  Testecleese: Oh, no, I've seen plenty of guys wearing the leather pads.
• 2:40:05
  Repeat Offender: Gracious.
• 2:40:06
  Testecleese: It's not thick, it's just a little leather thing, so, you know, they're not getting…
• 2:40:09
  Repeat Offender: Oh, no one was.
• 2:40:10
  Testecleese: droids.
• 2:40:11
  Repeat Offender: anymore. No one wears them anymore.
• 2:40:13
  Repeat Offender: I did, yeah.
• 2:40:14
  Testecleese: Actually, I haven't seen them in a while. I remember seeing… they all wear helmet… leather helmets, though, right?
• 2:40:20
  Repeat Offender: No, they're not leather, they're just… no, they're… only a couple of players do if they get a concussion or something. They get one or two concussions, it's just… all it is is a sponge.
• 2:40:29
  Repeat Offender: Just sponge with a bloody white, like, white acrylic sort of, covering? That's all it is.
• 2:40:36
  Testecleese: If you're a concussed, you probably…
• 2:40:38
  Testecleese: a day or two off to, recover. That's how you end up, like, these, NFL guys.
• 2:40:44
  Testecleese: That,
• 2:40:46
  Testecleese: Yeah, they got a couple bucks stored away, but they can't speak anymore, because they got hit in the head so many times, you know?
• 2:40:53
  Repeat Offender: That's it, mate. I've got to go, lads, gonna take the missus out for a little while. She's convinced me.
• 2:40:58
  Testecleese: Alright, man, have fun.
• 2:41:00
  Repeat Offender: Are they patiently waiting the same?
• 2:41:03
  Testecleese: Check this out, Brian. Oh.
• 2:41:05
  Repeat Offender: Hey guys, take care.
• 2:41:07
  Testecleese: Later, man.
• 2:41:09
  Testecleese: Another judge has sentenced someone to castration.
• 2:41:14
  Brian McFadden: You think?
• 2:41:15
  Brian McFadden: Always to decide.
• 2:41:17
  Testecleese: No. No, this person did not get the choice this time.
• 2:41:21
  Testecleese: This is their… umpteenth of France.
• 2:41:26
  Testecleese: And, female judge, by the way.
• 2:41:28
  Testecleese: The only choice this person got was whether it was chemical or surgical.
• 2:41:34
  Brian McFadden: Oh, wow.
• 2:41:36
  Brian McFadden: Hmm.
• 2:41:38
  Brian McFadden: and surgical.
• 2:41:40
  Testecleese: I don't know, what's… I… Is it a pill?
• 2:41:44
  Testecleese: If it's just a bill and it only affects that, I mean…
• 2:41:47
  Testecleese: First of having your test, he's severed, I don't know.
• 2:41:51
  Testecleese: but… We've talked about this before.
• 2:41:57
  Testecleese: And usually you get a choice, prison time or castration.
• 2:42:00
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 2:42:02
  Testecleese: I still haven't seen much about this happening, because it… we brought it up as it sounded.
• 2:42:07
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:42:08
  Testecleese: I haven't heard much about it since, honestly.
• 2:42:11
  Testecleese: There was a spree for a while.
• 2:42:15
  Testecleese: I'm curious, does it work? Do they stop offending?
• 2:42:20
  Testecleese: You know?
• 2:42:21
  Brian McFadden: I doubt it.
• 2:42:22
  Testecleese: Then what good does this do?
• 2:42:24
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:42:25
  Brian McFadden: At that point… I mean, just because you castrate somebody does not take away the urge to, like…
• 2:42:31
  Brian McFadden: violate people.
• 2:42:33
  Testecleese: Yeah, exactly, it's…
• 2:42:34
  Brian McFadden: It's more mental than…
• 2:42:35
  Testecleese: Is it predatory?
• 2:42:37
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 2:42:38
  Testecleese: If it's sexual, this might work, but if it's predatory, then that…
• 2:42:44
  Testecleese: It'll just be some other way to victimize people.
• 2:42:47
  Brian McFadden: Yep,
• 2:42:50
  Testecleese: I'm… I'm curious, like I said, I'm… I haven't found…
• 2:42:54
  Testecleese: I've actually looked this up because of this article, I was like, shit, we haven't talked about this in a while.
• 2:43:00
  Testecleese: So I looked up, I couldn't find enough data.
• 2:43:03
  Testecleese: To find out if this is actually working, because it's just not being done enough in general, you know?
• 2:43:08
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:43:11
  Testecleese: I need a beer.
• 2:43:12
  Brian McFadden: Alright, I'm pausing.
• 2:43:14
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 2:43:16
  Testecleese: Anyway, man, on to immigration.
• 2:43:20
  Testecleese: You see this TikTok lady who, like, threw a shit fit about how much the United States sucks?
• 2:43:27
  Testecleese: And everything's so expensive.
• 2:43:29
  Brian McFadden: No, because I don't do TikTok, so…
• 2:43:32
  Testecleese: Neither do I, but you went viral recently.
• 2:43:34
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 2:43:35
  Testecleese: She moved to Mexico.
• 2:43:37
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah!
• 2:43:38
  Brian McFadden: She loved it there? A lot cheaper to live?
• 2:43:42
  Testecleese: Well, she was all excited about the free healthcare until she found out that she's not a citizen of Mexico.
• 2:43:48
  Brian McFadden: Those who don't get free healthcare, it's like going to Canada. You don't get free healthcare there, either.
• 2:43:53
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 2:43:53
  Brian McFadden: Canadian citizen.
• 2:43:55
  Testecleese: And her kid got sick, and all I could think of… and she's like, oh, it was a bacterial infection in the stomach, caused, bloody vomit, and a bunch of other stuff, like, nasty. And all I thought was immediately.
• 2:44:08
  Testecleese: What everyone who's ever gone to Mexico has been told is, don't drink the tap water.
• 2:44:14
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 2:44:15
  Testecleese: The people that live there have immunities to that shit. You will get violently ill only by bottled water. That's all you're gonna think of is that she just moved there.
• 2:44:24
  Testecleese: Fuck.
• 2:44:25
  Testecleese: She's bathing in it, whatever, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
• 2:44:30
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:44:32
  Testecleese: And, yeah, the kid got violently ill, the hospital was like,
• 2:44:36
  Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, it's gonna be, like, $30,000.
• 2:44:39
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:44:40
  Testecleese: And she's like, I thought it was free elk. It goes, yeah, for Mexican citizens. So, after 3 months, that's why I think it's the water issue. 3 months, they're moving back to the… they moved back to the United States.
• 2:44:56
  Brian McFadden: Hilarious.
• 2:44:57
  Testecleese: Again, again, If all these people are fleeing Mexico to come here.
• 2:45:03
  Testecleese: And it's okay that they come here, because they're running away. What the fuck are they running away from, and why are you moving there?
• 2:45:10
  Brian McFadden: Right. Grass ain't always greener when you want to move away.
• 2:45:15
  Testecleese: No, it's…
• 2:45:16
  Brian McFadden: We got it pretty good here in the United States, you know.
• 2:45:19
  Testecleese: Yeah, and she was all upset about moving back. She's like, I sold my house. She's got a husband, too. She's still married with the kid.
• 2:45:28
  Testecleese: They got a family unit.
• 2:45:30
  Testecleese: It's like, yeah, we both quit our jobs, we sold our car, we sold our house…
• 2:45:35
  Testecleese: And I was like, yeah!
• 2:45:38
  Testecleese: Yeah, like, this is a big decision that you have to take seriously before you just…
• 2:45:42
  Testecleese: flip out because Trump is in office.
• 2:45:46
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I did a lot of that to move to Michigan, you know? Sold all our cars and stuff like that. Didn't sell the house.
• 2:45:54
  Testecleese: Yeah, exactly, and… but you knew exactly where you were going and what was gonna happen, too.
• 2:45:59
  Brian McFadden: Yeah,
• 2:46:01
  Testecleese: This woman had no idea what was gonna happen when she just moved to Mexico.
• 2:46:05
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:46:06
  Testecleese: She just assumed that they were gonna do it the way she wanted it to work in the United States.
• 2:46:11
  Brian McFadden: No. It's a different country. They got their own rules.
• 2:46:14
  Testecleese: That's the thing, is that everyone else in the world does this, like, no, trust me, if you fucking go there, it will not happen! And we keep hearing stories about these people.
• 2:46:23
  Testecleese: usually going to Mexico.
• 2:46:27
  Testecleese: And then coming… or England.
• 2:46:30
  Testecleese: Fucking Ellen, right?
• 2:46:32
  Testecleese: Isn't she in the process of being deported right now?
• 2:46:36
  Brian McFadden: I think even Roseanne Barr doesn't like being in Ireland anymore.
• 2:46:40
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, she's trying to come back, too.
• 2:46:43
  Testecleese: It's like trying to, go ahead, no one's stopping you.
• 2:46:46
  Brian McFadden: No, you're a U.S. citizen.
• 2:46:48
  Testecleese: Date, you're a citizen, you can come and go as you please.
• 2:46:51
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 2:46:53
  Testecleese: And that's what's crazy, and she's like, yeah, well, it sucks…
• 2:46:55
  Brian McFadden: These are just all the celebrities that are like, oh, well, Trump got elected, I'm moving out of the country, you know?
• 2:47:02
  Testecleese: That's it.
• 2:47:02
  Brian McFadden: We can count the number of…
• 2:47:04
  Brian McFadden: People that actually did it, on one hand.
• 2:47:06
  Testecleese: Well, here's the thing, is that these poor people believed this shit and did it too.
• 2:47:12
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:47:13
  Testecleese: Right, and they didn't know.
• 2:47:14
  Brian McFadden: And they can afford to live in another country. Even Mexico, they couldn't afford to live in it.
• 2:47:20
  Brian McFadden: They're not like the rich and famous, Roseanne Barr and.
• 2:47:24
  Testecleese: Well, that's the thing, is this family brought $10,000.
• 2:47:28
  Testecleese: With them. And I was like, you only got $10,000 cash after, like, selling your car and your house?
• 2:47:34
  Brian McFadden: There's some kind of in this picture.
• 2:47:35
  Testecleese: That seems crazy, but I guess they might have bought a residence in Mexico, but they still should have had more left over.
• 2:47:40
  Brian McFadden: No, they definitely should've.
• 2:47:43
  Testecleese: And they… their money was also running out, because they couldn't get jobs in Mexico, because they weren't Mexican citizens and didn't speak Spanish.
• 2:47:51
  Brian McFadden: Maybe they should have got some legal jobs.
• 2:47:54
  Testecleese: Well, that's the thing, it's like, you…
• 2:47:57
  Testecleese: They're enforcing the exact shit that you're telling me is fascist.
• 2:48:01
  Brian McFadden: And depending on what their skill trade was, why couldn't they do remote work?
• 2:48:09
  Testecleese: Because God knows where in Mexico they moved, and I doubt it was Cozumel, you know what I mean? It was funny.
• 2:48:15
  Brian McFadden: So, there's internet everywhere. Starlink provides internet to the most rural areas, I know, because I'm doing it.
• 2:48:23
  Testecleese: That's right, I forgot about Starlink. I forgot about Starlink. I was gonna say, a lot of Mexico is still jungle, you know that, right?
• 2:48:29
  Brian McFadden: Yes, I do know that.
• 2:48:31
  Testecleese: Well, not… a lot of people do.
• 2:48:34
  Testecleese: For some reason, they picture desert, and I'm like, most of Mexico is a jungle. Like, tropical rainforest.
• 2:48:42
  Testecleese: Right. Very little mega.
• 2:48:44
  Brian McFadden: They probably went to Mexico City, or one of the border cities that is so much… shape, you know.
• 2:48:49
  Testecleese: the border cities, where the desert is.
• 2:48:53
  Brian McFadden: The problem is, a lot of the border cities have a lot of, gang issues and stuff like that. That's why you gotta pretty much go further
• 2:49:00
  Brian McFadden: Inland…
• 2:49:01
  Testecleese: Because they're rocked.
• 2:49:02
  Brian McFadden: It's hard to get away from the tourism and the, you know, and be actually…
• 2:49:09
  Testecleese: or you go forest hubs, like Cancun, Cozumel.
• 2:49:14
  Testecleese: Because that's where everyone goes, and it's safe to be there pretty much all the time, because.
• 2:49:20
  Brian McFadden: No, it's not.
• 2:49:21
  Testecleese: Even the… no, even the gangs don't want to mess with it. You have pit pockets like Virginia Beach, but the gangs stay out of it, because it's not worth fucking up the tourism that brings all the money in.
• 2:49:33
  Testecleese: That's when the police actually cracked down. It's like, you're screwing up tourism.
• 2:49:37
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:49:41
  Testecleese: Oh, this is interesting. Where, where was this?
• 2:49:47
  Testecleese: I want to say Massachusetts, but I don't think it was.
• 2:49:50
  Brian McFadden: I'm looking at it now.
• 2:49:52
  Testecleese: Yeah, I know, right? It's… Perfect.
• 2:49:54
  Brian McFadden: County!
• 2:49:56
  Testecleese: There you go, Virginia.
• 2:49:56
  Brian McFadden: I looked… this showed up as a stupid Facebook story that I had to, like, actually do a Google search to find an actual article to put into the group, because I knew how.
• 2:50:08
  Testecleese: I appreciate a Facebook thing, then I had.
• 2:50:10
  Brian McFadden: No, I didn't know, I found this, I found this.
• 2:50:12
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 2:50:15
  Testecleese: But yeah, he's a grown adult who's going to high school in Virginia.
• 2:50:21
  Brian McFadden: and groping, he's been allegedly… Charged with groping dozens of minor kids.
• 2:50:28
  Brian McFadden: Mine are girls.
• 2:50:34
  Testecleese: I'm sorry, I… Okay, I'll accept your argument, not all illegals. I… let's accept that at base value here.
• 2:50:44
  Testecleese: for this argument.
• 2:50:47
  Testecleese: This guy was groping children.
• 2:50:50
  Testecleese: He should go to prison, right? Or, back to where he came from, because he shouldn't be here legally… he's not here legally anyway.
• 2:50:58
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 2:51:00
  Testecleese: I don't understand why they want to keep people like this in the country.
• 2:51:06
  Brian McFadden: The federal government doesn't, but
• 2:51:11
  Brian McFadden: This was an illegal immigrant from El Salvador who was released in the U.S. under the Biden administration in 2024.
• 2:51:19
  Brian McFadden: And we've now filed a detainer against him to… so he could face deten… removal from the country.
• 2:51:28
  Testecleese: What was he doing in high school?
• 2:51:30
  Brian McFadden: He's 18, he's probably, like, in senior.
• 2:51:32
  Testecleese: Oh, okay, when they said growing adult, I… because it says adult, I was thinking, like, a 25-year-old.
• 2:51:38
  Brian McFadden: No, no, 18. He's 18.
• 2:51:43
  Testecleese: They're just… ugh.
• 2:51:47
  Testecleese: Yeah, we could put him in prison.
• 2:51:49
  Testecleese: here. But why should we pay for that? It costs less to fly him back to where he came from.
• 2:51:54
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, he should go home.
• 2:51:56
  Brian McFadden: Even though it might not be his own.
• 2:51:59
  Brian McFadden: I do not care.
• 2:52:00
  Brian McFadden: He's not here legally, so…
• 2:52:02
  Testecleese: No, send him back to El Salvador. El Salvador's taking… is accepting deportees.
• 2:52:08
  Testecleese: You know this as well as I, they were accepting people to be put in prison.
• 2:52:13
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, because the US was paying them to do that.
• 2:52:15
  Testecleese: I know!
• 2:52:17
  Testecleese: But they'll certainly take… they will certainly take back their own citizen. They might even have a trial for him diddling a bunch of frickin' 17-year-olds, 16-year-olds.
• 2:52:31
  Testecleese: We're just…
• 2:52:33
  Testecleese: It's tough, because he's about their age anyway, if he's 18, but you still can't go around just grabbing.
• 2:52:39
  Brian McFadden: -Oh.
• 2:52:40
  Testecleese: tits and ass, you know what I mean?
• 2:52:41
  Brian McFadden: Those were the good old days.
• 2:52:47
  Testecleese: I, I just saw Archie with, Edith singing Those Were the Days at the piano.
• 2:52:55
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 2:52:56
  Testecleese: You don't remember the show?
• 2:52:59
  Testecleese: I think it was called Archie.
• 2:53:02
  Brian McFadden: Archie?
• 2:53:04
  Testecleese: Yeah, to the moon, Alice. No, that was the honeymooners, wasn't it?
• 2:53:10
  Testecleese: Yeah, they had Meathead, that was,
• 2:53:14
  Testecleese: Oh my god, the brilliant actor, then director.
• 2:53:20
  Brian McFadden: Ron Howard?
• 2:53:21
  Testecleese: not Ron Howard, the fat, super liberal guy.
• 2:53:25
  Testecleese: who I hated his opinions on.
• 2:53:27
  Brian McFadden: Oh, from, the bunker?
• 2:53:29
  Testecleese: Rob Reiner.
• 2:53:30
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, right, Ryaner.
• 2:53:31
  Testecleese: Rob Reiner, brilliant at his field, though, at his craft, wasn't he?
• 2:53:36
  Brian McFadden: He got political, and I was done with him.
• 2:53:38
  Testecleese: Yeah, I still liked his work.
• 2:53:40
  Testecleese: But Rob Reiner was actually an actor on,
• 2:53:43
  Testecleese: Not the honeymoon, I think it was called Archie.
• 2:53:46
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, because that was a spin-off of the bunker.
• 2:53:50
  Brian McFadden: It was a spin-off of the Archie Bunker Show.
• 2:53:54
  Testecleese: Who knows? Archie Bunker was the guy in the opening sequence, he sang a song with his wife, Edith.
• 2:54:01
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:54:03
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 2:54:03
  Brian McFadden: And then that show that he was on came after that. It was a spin-off.
• 2:54:10
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 2:54:12
  Testecleese: Night.
• 2:54:14
  Brian McFadden: You want me to look it up for you?
• 2:54:16
  Testecleese: No, I believe you. I believe you, I just…
• 2:54:20
  Testecleese: That was an old show when I was a kid.
• 2:54:27
  Testecleese: Anyway, alright.
• 2:54:31
  Testecleese: Oh, oh, this is interesting. Mullins, he's, what, he's doing DHS now?
• 2:54:35
  Brian McFadden: He is the second… Homeland Secretary. He's been appointed… he got through… through Senate confirmation. He is in charge.
• 2:54:45
  Testecleese: M.
• 2:54:47
  Testecleese: He's talking about, using the federal authority of the DHS with airports.
• 2:54:55
  Testecleese: To basically force states to comply with immigration law.
• 2:55:00
  Brian McFadden: It's a possibility.
• 2:55:02
  Testecleese: Very interesting idea.
• 2:55:05
  Brian McFadden: It is, but we're talking about New York City airports, we're talking about San Francisco airports, we're talking about major international airports.
• 2:55:14
  Testecleese: Yes, and he's saying that we will cut off flights in and out of there if you do not abide by the law.
• 2:55:23
  Testecleese: Did you imagine New York not having flights in and out every day?
• 2:55:28
  Testecleese: Let alone New Jersey and the surrounding areas that can't afford a flight directly into New York.
• 2:55:35
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:55:37
  Brian McFadden: I like the concept, I don't know… Where it's gonna go.
• 2:55:44
  Testecleese: I hope it doesn't happen, because business will grind to a halt, or…
• 2:55:49
  Brian McFadden: We'll get ruined sanctuary cities.
• 2:55:51
  Testecleese: Or, would you… I doubt that.
• 2:55:54
  Testecleese: Or people will finally turn the computer on and do it this way instead.
• 2:56:00
  Testecleese: Which, realistically, how many people need to be in New York City to do business?
• 2:56:05
  Brian McFadden: Nobody. They're all leaving. That's why they're leaving.
• 2:56:08
  Testecleese: Because they can still do their job from somewhere else, anyone who's worth any actual money.
• 2:56:13
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 2:56:17
  Brian McFadden: This was an article I shared. The woman… a woman gave birth on a Caribbean Airlines flight.
• 2:56:24
  Brian McFadden: On her way to the U.S.
• 2:56:26
  Testecleese: Yeah, this is obvious what the answer is, but go ahead.
• 2:56:29
  Brian McFadden: It was at International Waters.
• 2:56:33
  Brian McFadden: So, this baby is a non-citizen of any country.
• 2:56:38
  Testecleese: No.
• 2:56:39
  Testecleese: This is bringing up, birthright citizenship stuff? No. It's,
• 2:56:46
  Testecleese: If you do birthright citizenship, then it would be a citizen of the nation it left, which is Jamaica.
• 2:56:53
  Testecleese: Because you have… it's still the same place it left until it lands. That's why federal agents can arrest someone on a plane until it touches down in a foreign nation, right?
• 2:57:04
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:57:05
  Testecleese: Because it's still American at that point.
• 2:57:08
  Testecleese: And most countries, this child will be a citizen of whatever nation the parents were citizens of.
• 2:57:15
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:57:18
  Testecleese: So this isn't an issue.
• 2:57:23
  Testecleese: just like a Chinese.
• 2:57:24
  Brian McFadden: Except that she was trying to have the baby born in America.
• 2:57:28
  Testecleese: That's exactly what they were trying to do, but she didn't make it in time.
• 2:57:33
  Brian McFadden: And that's the issue.
• 2:57:36
  Testecleese: I don't see the issue. They're all.
• 2:57:37
  Brian McFadden: But I don't think Jamaica's gonna accept it as a citizen either, because it was in the air.
• 2:57:42
  Testecleese: Jamaica will, because Jamaica… you don't have to be born in Jamaica to be Jamaican, like most countries, it's whatever.
• 2:57:49
  Brian McFadden: You know that?
• 2:57:49
  Testecleese: citizenship, most countries say whatever citizenship your parents have is what citizenship you have.
• 2:57:55
  Brian McFadden: Alright.
• 2:57:56
  Testecleese: United States, Canada, and Indonesia, I think, are the only 3 countries that have a, you were born here, you're a citizen thing.
• 2:58:04
  Brian McFadden: There ain't many.
• 2:58:06
  Testecleese: If you… That's why I traveled.
• 2:58:07
  Brian McFadden: Trying to get rid of it.
• 2:58:08
  Testecleese: Yeah, you try… if you go to Australia and pop a kid out, that kid is not Australian.
• 2:58:13
  Brian McFadden: I guarantee, if… The Supreme Court rules against bird-right citizenship. It will cut down on illegal immigration.
• 2:58:20
  Brian McFadden: Yesterday.
• 2:58:24
  Testecleese: I know what you mean.
• 2:58:25
  Brian McFadden: There'd be no incentive to, like…
• 2:58:27
  Testecleese: dear.
• 2:58:28
  Brian McFadden: Exactly. It'll be no incentive for the Chinese to charter planes to fly pregnant women over here.
• 2:58:36
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, that's what's terrifying, is they already did, and now we have these kids that were born here that are… that have citizenship, but they're also Chinese citizens, who got flown back as soon as they were old enough to do it.
• 2:58:47
  Testecleese: They're gonna grow up in the CCP their entire lives and run from.
• 2:58:51
  Brian McFadden: I'll come back.
• 2:58:51
  Testecleese: States when they're 35.
• 2:58:55
  Brian McFadden: They're running for president.
• 2:58:57
  Testecleese: Yeah, and honestly, How long… how long was this happening before Obama pointed it out, right?
• 2:59:04
  Testecleese: Are they at that age now? What would the Democrats do if a man born in the United States, grew up in China, came back to the United States to run for president? What would the Democrats do?
• 2:59:16
  Brian McFadden: Probably elect him.
• 2:59:18
  Testecleese: Yes, they would overwhelmingly vote for it, because it would make them feel good.
• 2:59:23
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 2:59:24
  Brian McFadden: It's all about the feelings.
• 2:59:26
  Testecleese: Yeah, instead of, hey, maybe this guy was sent by the fucking Chinese Communist Party to tank this economy and turn us communists, too.
• 2:59:38
  Testecleese: Alright. Well.
• 2:59:40
  Brian McFadden: I have an update on this. Oh, well.
• 2:59:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, I got… it's right under it.
• 2:59:44
  Brian McFadden: Yep, yep. So, we had this U.S. soldier who married an illegal person in the country, and he took her on base to try to get her… get her ID and get her rolling deers, and all that, you know, and ICE arrested her.
• 3:00:01
  Testecleese: See, I didn't see the whole thing. I thought she was here legally, but not permanently.
• 3:00:07
  Brian McFadden: She applied for the, the,
• 3:00:10
  Brian McFadden: The kid… the… the thing that Obama was all pushing, the… the DREAM Act thing. Dream Act, yep.
• 3:00:18
  Testecleese: But never went through.
• 3:00:19
  Brian McFadden: No, it never got approved.
• 3:00:22
  Testecleese: I was on.
• 3:00:23
  Brian McFadden: And and he, and these two fell in love.
• 3:00:27
  Brian McFadden: And, you know, previously, back in the day, if you were in the military, and you married an illegal.
• 3:00:35
  Brian McFadden: Ice, black…
• 3:00:36
  Testecleese: They let him, they let him stay.
• 3:00:37
  Brian McFadden: Did let them slide, they let him stay, you know, it wasn't a big deal.
• 3:00:40
  Testecleese: How many… how many soldiers came back with Korean wives? Let's be real.
• 3:00:43
  Brian McFadden: Tons. People can do… Filipino wives, you know?
• 3:00:49
  Testecleese: Vietnamese.
• 3:00:50
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, all of them.
• 3:00:52
  Testecleese: It's a real thing.
• 3:00:53
  Brian McFadden: It is.
• 3:00:54
  Testecleese: I remember being disappointed when I found out it wasn't actually sideways.
• 3:00:59
  Brian McFadden: Whatever.
• 3:01:01
  Testecleese: You never heard of the Sideways Pussy?
• 3:01:03
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:01:05
  Brian McFadden: I never believed it, but…
• 3:01:07
  Testecleese: No, but it was…
• 3:01:09
  Brian McFadden: But, so, the ICE did finally, after political pressure, they have agreed to release this, the wife.
• 3:01:19
  Brian McFadden: The newlywed wife, but she's gonna be under… she's gonna have an ankle bracelet.
• 3:01:25
  Testecleese: She's making sure that they didn't do this just so she could stay in the country, basically. Right. Right?
• 3:01:29
  Brian McFadden: Yeah. Yeah.
• 3:01:31
  Testecleese: If this is real, we're gonna let it slide, because you're, you know, active duty, but if this is just so she could be in.
• 3:01:38
  Brian McFadden: Well, but they're also doing their job, you know, under the law, too, you know? It's like, hey, you know, we gotta follow through with all this shit, you know? It's something that the Biden administration…
• 3:01:48
  Brian McFadden: liked immensely on, you know? They were like, hey, you're illegal, come on in, you know, we don't care.
• 3:01:55
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 3:01:57
  Testecleese: But yeah, it's a very real thing for these guys to go overseas and come back with wives.
• 3:02:02
  Brian McFadden: But I don't think he even knew this. This guy is a fairly new U.S. soldier. I think he met her here in the U.S.
• 3:02:08
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, that's why I was… I know, you said she was here illegally. I was on… like I said, I didn't read the whole thing. I assumed she was here legally, got married, and then her, like.
• 3:02:18
  Testecleese: Tourist visa expired.
• 3:02:20
  Brian McFadden: No, no, no, she was… she was not…
• 3:02:23
  Brian McFadden: She wasn't even here on her DACA, you know, she applied for DACA, but never got approved for it.
• 3:02:29
  Testecleese: Mmm.
• 3:02:29
  Brian McFadden: She was… her parents brought it here illegally.
• 3:02:32
  Testecleese: That is a tough one.
• 3:02:34
  Testecleese: And she probably got lucky because she married an enlisted guy, and that's exactly what I'm saying is…
• 3:02:40
  Testecleese: They just have to make sure this is actually a marriage, and now not just so she doesn't get sent to Mexico.
• 3:02:46
  Testecleese: At, what, 30 years old?
• 3:02:48
  Testecleese: Doesn't speak a lick of Spanish.
• 3:02:51
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:02:52
  Testecleese: You know?
• 3:02:53
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 3:02:55
  Testecleese: Okay, where's… where's MacDill Air Force?
• 3:02:59
  Brian McFadden: Florida.
• 3:03:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, okay, I actually…
• 3:03:01
  Brian McFadden: Panhandle of Florida.
• 3:03:03
  Testecleese: I actually knew that because I read this, but I've never heard of this airbase before.
• 3:03:08
  Brian McFadden: Apparently, they've had many bomb threats in the last few weeks.
• 3:03:14
  Brian McFadden: They eventually evacuated all the base housing on Thursday.
• 3:03:21
  Testecleese: I remember talking…
• 3:03:23
  Testecleese: Maybe it was a different place, but I swear we just talked about something similar at a military base.
• 3:03:30
  Testecleese: In, the United States.
• 3:03:32
  Brian McFadden: Probably.
• 3:03:33
  Brian McFadden: This seems to be, like, a common thing these days, you know? Let's call it a bomb threat and see… see what happens, you know? It's like testing the system.
• 3:03:43
  Testecleese: Bomb types were the 90s, though. Now they actually place bombs, you know what I mean?
• 3:03:51
  Testecleese: Because I remember bomb threats. Like, it was a thing.
• 3:03:54
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, I lived through it. I was around in the 90s.
• 3:03:58
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 3:04:00
  Testecleese: Two of them now, I believe, right?
• 3:04:03
  Brian McFadden: 290s?
• 3:04:05
  Testecleese: Yeah, the 18 and the 1990s?
• 3:04:07
  Brian McFadden: Fuck you!
• 3:04:12
  Testecleese: Are you, you're Gen X?
• 3:04:15
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:04:15
  Testecleese: rumor.
• 3:04:17
  Brian McFadden: Gen X.
• 3:04:18
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm not a boomer motherfucker.
• 3:04:21
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 3:04:22
  Testecleese: Yeah, Boomers are, like, 60 to 80 now.
• 3:04:26
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I'm not 60 yet.
• 3:04:29
  Testecleese: Yeah, my father's in the, 70s.
• 3:04:33
  Testecleese: He's, like, right in the middle of the curve.
• 3:04:36
  Testecleese: Which is interesting, he was the firstborn of 11.
• 3:04:41
  Testecleese: 11.
• 3:04:42
  Brian McFadden: That's crazy.
• 3:04:44
  Testecleese: Jeez Louise, he's got 10 brothers and sisters.
• 3:04:49
  Brian McFadden: How many of them are still alive?
• 3:04:53
  Testecleese: All of them.
• 3:04:54
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 3:04:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, I know, right? Well, he's the eldest.
• 3:04:59
  Testecleese: He's in his 70s.
• 3:05:01
  Testecleese: He hasn't spoken to one in probably 15 years, and not by lack of trying, he just…
• 3:05:07
  Testecleese: Apparently, my uncle Chuck is like me.
• 3:05:11
  Testecleese: And doesn't hate his family, in fact, loves his family, but knows that he can't be around his family all the time.
• 3:05:19
  Testecleese: And yeah, he just disappeared and fell off the grid, kind of like I did.
• 3:05:24
  Brian McFadden: It happens.
• 3:05:26
  Testecleese: Well, I mean, like I said, it's…
• 3:05:28
  Testecleese: Not because I hate my family, but I can't… be around.
• 3:05:32
  Brian McFadden: And with your family?
• 3:05:32
  Testecleese: the time. Right. Huh?
• 3:05:35
  Brian McFadden: Can't deal with them?
• 3:05:36
  Testecleese: Oh, I… I can, but it's not…
• 3:05:40
  Testecleese: when I was up in Massachusetts.
• 3:05:43
  Testecleese: any given weekend, there'd be 30 people I'm related to at my fucking house. While I'm out working in the yard.
• 3:05:51
  Testecleese: You know, raising property value making it the way I want to have my property be.
• 3:05:58
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:05:58
  Testecleese: They're having a fucking pool party in my pool, and using my grill, burning my gas.
• 3:06:04
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:06:05
  Testecleese: Pointing at me and laughing while I'm working.
• 3:06:08
  Brian McFadden: I understand.
• 3:06:09
  Testecleese: And it just… it got to the point where I was like, this is why I left the first time. Like, granted, it was because I joined the service, but I didn't go right back, you know?
• 3:06:18
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:06:19
  Brian McFadden: No, no.
• 3:06:20
  Brian McFadden: I got the same issues here in Michigan, so…
• 3:06:25
  Testecleese: Just drove me nuts, and I'm like, you know you're in my pool that I take care of.
• 3:06:30
  Testecleese: You know?
• 3:06:32
  Testecleese: You know you're at my house, you're… you're using my grill.
• 3:06:37
  Testecleese: And you're laughing at me because I'm sweating my ass off.
• 3:06:41
  Testecleese: putting in a fence, you know? Right. Through the forest where there's vines.
• 3:06:49
  Testecleese: It's funny, actually, I spent 3 weeks building a table that I started forging on.
• 3:06:58
  Testecleese: And every weekend, everyone was over at the pool, doing the pool party thing.
• 3:07:04
  Testecleese: My uncle finally asked me a question. He's like, what are you doing over here? I was like, you've been doing this for a while. I was like, I'm building a table.
• 3:07:11
  Testecleese: And he's like, why is it taking this so long?
• 3:07:14
  Testecleese: He said, because I want a very sturdy table that I can slam a hammer on.
• 3:07:19
  Testecleese: They can handle it, knowing how much force they put on it.
• 3:07:22
  Testecleese: Yeah, but… He brought up screws and everything, but…
• 3:07:26
  Testecleese: Anyway, the moral of the story was, he didn't understand what I was trying to build, nor what it was supposed to be able to handle.
• 3:07:34
  Testecleese: I ended up drilling holes in the sides of 2x6s.
• 3:07:38
  Testecleese: Putting glue in them, and then, putting a dowel in between them to hold the boards together, like, 3 different times across the length of the boards.
• 3:07:48
  Testecleese: To make a big ol' table that weighed, like, 200 pounds.
• 3:07:52
  Testecleese: He was thinking I could get, like, a kitchen table that I could just screw together that would do the job.
• 3:07:57
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:07:59
  Testecleese: He just… he had no idea what…
• 3:08:02
  Testecleese: The work was going to put out.
• 3:08:04
  Testecleese: But… He's also a musician and an artist.
• 3:08:10
  Testecleese: And always has been.
• 3:08:13
  Testecleese: Which is cool. Tons of fun at a party. He can hear something played, then play it back on the guitar, you know?
• 3:08:20
  Brian McFadden: Nice.
• 3:08:21
  Testecleese: Yeah, that's a cool party trick, plus he can always play, he's great.
• 3:08:26
  Testecleese: We just had no idea.
• 3:08:29
  Testecleese: how… things get made, or where they come from, you know what I mean? Right.
• 3:08:36
  Testecleese: And that's the issue with communism, dude.
• 3:08:40
  Testecleese: If you're gonna get paid the same amount of money no matter what you do, then everyone's gonna be a fucking artist, aren't they? Who's gonna wanna work hard and build a railroad?
• 3:08:48
  Brian McFadden: Nobody.
• 3:08:49
  Testecleese: Yeah, until you're told you're building the railroad, you know?
• 3:08:56
  Testecleese: Fuck, for real, if we were under something where we got paid, no matter what, same loan as everyone else.
• 3:09:02
  Testecleese: We always had to do something.
• 3:09:04
  Testecleese: This would be our job, wouldn't it?
• 3:09:06
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:09:07
  Testecleese: And we would put more effort into it, sure, but…
• 3:09:10
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
• 3:09:12
  Testecleese: this would be it. It's like, why would either one of us do anything else if I could just fuck off and get drunk with my buddy, you know? And get paid for it?
• 3:09:21
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 3:09:25
  Testecleese: Oh!
• 3:09:29
  Testecleese: The automatic registration for the draft, is about to be put into action.
• 3:09:35
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:09:37
  Testecleese: I'm surprised December and not January 1st.
• 3:09:43
  Brian McFadden: You'd think that'd make more sense, but…
• 3:09:46
  Testecleese: This is what you would expect.
• 3:09:48
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:09:48
  Testecleese: But this is only men, right? Of course.
• 3:09:51
  Brian McFadden: No women.
• 3:09:56
  Testecleese: I'm actually kind of surprised that your true hardcore feminists
• 3:10:01
  Testecleese: Aren't pushing for this, to be required to register for the draft.
• 3:10:08
  Testecleese: The ones that don't actually do any of the work that they want women to do?
• 3:10:12
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:10:13
  Testecleese: And refuse to touch, but demand women do it.
• 3:10:17
  Testecleese: Those are the type I expect to be saying, yes, we should be a part of the draft.
• 3:10:23
  Testecleese: But, like, Let's be real, even your most modern feminist doesn't want to work at a coal mine.
• 3:10:30
  Testecleese: She wants a fucking corner office in an air-conditioned building.
• 3:10:34
  Brian McFadden: Making $100,000 a year.
• 3:10:37
  Testecleese: Oh my god, have you seen… have you ever seen the Whatever podcast?
• 3:10:41
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 3:10:42
  Testecleese: No, not even, like, clips of it? Oh god.
• 3:10:44
  Brian McFadden: -
• 3:10:45
  Testecleese: Basically, they have stupid women on, but he swears that these are just average people that just offer to come on his show.
• 3:10:54
  Testecleese: And, oh my god, the stuff they said… like, these women are like, oh, I expect my man to be, at least 6 feet.
• 3:11:01
  Testecleese: that I'm gonna marry, you gotta make at least $500,000 a year.
• 3:11:07
  Testecleese: And she goes on and on and on, and the guy, the host of the show is just sitting there like, you're talking about less than 1% of the population.
• 3:11:15
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 3:11:17
  Testecleese: Like, you think you deserve less than 1%
• 3:11:21
  Testecleese: of, available males. And she goes, yeah, look at me. And he's like, you weigh 240 pounds.
• 3:11:31
  Testecleese: And I'm like, no, I'm a 10. And he's like, out of who? And she goes, out of me.
• 3:11:35
  Testecleese: And it's always what is these women, they… he actually has these women raid each other physically, which I think is crude, but that's what he does. And they all give each other's, like, 9 and 10s.
• 3:11:47
  Testecleese: He's like, well, I think I'm a 10. It's like, really? Then, like…
• 3:11:52
  Testecleese: Who were the… who were the hot women, then? Like, what… there tends to?
• 3:11:59
  Testecleese: Anyway, it's just… these people distort reality around themselves to be able to believe what they want to believe.
• 3:12:09
  Testecleese: Appreciate it, I'm sure you've heard plenty of this shit.
• 3:12:12
  Testecleese: when they read, like, Obama or Biden quotes to people, and tell them it's Trump, and they tell them how only a Nazi would ever say that, no one else would ever do it. Like, oh, it's Biden. It's like, well, you know, it made perfect sense under Biden, because it's like…
• 3:12:26
  Testecleese: You just said only a Nazi would ever say that.
• 3:12:29
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:12:31
  Brian McFadden: Well, that makes Obama a Nazi.
• 3:12:34
  Testecleese: Yeah, but they find a way to weasel out of it.
• 3:12:37
  Testecleese: I think you shared this next one, Brian. I'm glad you did, maybe I did, I'm not sure. I did. But I'm glad you did, because we've been… okay, we've been talking about this for a while.
• 3:12:47
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, because I did go through Sears School.
• 3:12:49
  Testecleese: Yes, and the whole pilot down is what Sears School is designed for, right?
• 3:12:54
  Brian McFadden: Yep,
• 3:12:57
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it's basically search, evasion, rescue, escape.
• 3:13:02
  Brian McFadden: So they teach you in the school to, evade, capture… As long as possible.
• 3:13:16
  Testecleese: Yeah, I just… I thought it was very neat that,
• 3:13:19
  Brian McFadden: And I know we talked about it on the last show, that we thought that the weapons officer had been recovered, but obviously he hadn't, because he didn't get recovered.
• 3:13:28
  Testecleese: illegal.
• 3:13:29
  Brian McFadden: like, Sunday.
• 3:13:31
  Testecleese: Yeah, the leaker.
• 3:13:33
  Testecleese: I'm sure you heard about that, right?
• 3:13:36
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:13:37
  Testecleese: The person was like, we have one pilot back, there's still another one out there, that that's when Iran put out a bounty.
• 3:13:44
  Testecleese: And it's like, who the fuck told the news that there's still a pilot out there?
• 3:13:50
  Testecleese: Luckily.
• 3:13:51
  Brian McFadden: Hopefully he crash-landed in an area that was not a fan of Iran.
• 3:13:57
  Testecleese: Correct, and what, he… he climbed to, like, 4,000 feet altitude, and then activated his, beacon to be found.
• 3:14:07
  Testecleese: With a wound. He was bleeding.
• 3:14:10
  Brian McFadden: But I hear… I did hear that people, like, locals, helped them survive, too.
• 3:14:16
  Testecleese: Yeah, oh yeah, well, every… that's what's crazy, is the Western world is like, well, what the fuck you doing in Iran? But everyone, every nation around there is like, something needs to be done, and they're all in on the fight.
• 3:14:30
  Testecleese: And it… It's just… it's fucking crazy.
• 3:14:38
  Testecleese: And I will point out, too, that… I'm hearing a lot of… Trump promised no new wars.
• 3:14:47
  Testecleese: Correct.
• 3:14:50
  Testecleese: Is a little disappointing, but…
• 3:14:54
  Testecleese: even before Trump ran for office, when he was criticizing Obama, when he said, I might run instead, he was talking how Iran can never get a nuclear weapon. Right. Wasn't he? Yeah.
• 3:15:05
  Brian McFadden: He's the one that killed.
• 3:15:05
  Testecleese: Why he decided to run for president.
• 3:15:07
  Brian McFadden: the nuclear agreement that Obama put in place.
• 3:15:12
  Testecleese: Because it let them get a bomb!
• 3:15:14
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:15:15
  Testecleese: Do people understand this? The end result of the nuclear agreement with Obama was Iran could eventually have a nuclear weapon.
• 3:15:24
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:15:27
  Testecleese: I don't think people realize that, because I…
• 3:15:29
  Brian McFadden: I don't either.
• 3:15:30
  Testecleese: I've heard a lot of people say, like, that's not true. It's like, it absolutely is.
• 3:15:35
  Testecleese: It was supposed to take, 15 or 20 years? Yup. Which would be about now, wouldn't it?
• 3:15:41
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:15:44
  Testecleese: Oh my god, it would be about now.
• 3:15:46
  Testecleese: And they've already shown us they could fire a missile semi-accurately further than, they had let us believe.
• 3:15:55
  Testecleese: They could have hit Great Britain, couldn't they?
• 3:15:59
  Testecleese: If they can hit Diego Garcia…
• 3:16:01
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:16:02
  Testecleese: So why aren't the British… Getting concerned about this.
• 3:16:08
  Brian McFadden: Because we're involved.
• 3:16:10
  Testecleese: Because we're gonna do it for them, and they can act like they're fucking high and mighty.
• 3:16:14
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:16:19
  Testecleese: Here's the question, if we do leave NATO, Hypothetical.
• 3:16:26
  Testecleese: What would it take to get back in?
• 3:16:30
  Testecleese: Like, if they called you a bluff, kind of thing, and you gotta do it, What would it take?
• 3:16:36
  Testecleese: One, what would we have to do first, in terms of, like, time away from NATO and not helping people?
• 3:16:42
  Testecleese: And then what would NATO demand of the United States to get back in?
• 3:16:46
  Brian McFadden: I don't think… I think if the United States leaves NATO, NATO collapses.
• 3:16:51
  Testecleese: You think it just falls apart immediately?
• 3:16:53
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:16:53
  Testecleese: Within a couple years, anyway.
• 3:16:54
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 3:16:56
  Testecleese: Really?
• 3:16:58
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, because…
• 3:17:00
  Brian McFadden: If you, you know, you look at Trump's initial demands that everybody puts in 2% of their gross GDP towards NATO, and most of the countries did it, except for Spain.
• 3:17:13
  Brian McFadden: That's only 2%.
• 3:17:15
  Brian McFadden: How much do you think we're spending on our gross national production towards NATO?
• 3:17:22
  Testecleese: Gross domestic product.
• 3:17:24
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:17:26
  Brian McFadden: It's more than 2%, I guarantee it.
• 3:17:29
  Testecleese: Oh, oh, it's… oh, it's way, way more.
• 3:17:32
  Testecleese: We spend more money in the military every year than the next 14 countries combined. You know that, right?
• 3:17:39
  Brian McFadden: So I really think it… we pull out NATO, within 2 years, NATO's gone.
• 3:17:46
  Testecleese: You don't think they're gonna have a little…
• 3:17:48
  Testecleese: Maybe… maybe it falls apart and becomes a different, like, European alliance?
• 3:17:53
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 3:17:54
  Testecleese: No, you just think it's…
• 3:17:55
  Brian McFadden: They're all… they're all too… all these European countries are too focused on their… They're social products.
• 3:18:05
  Testecleese: So what you're saying is if we leave, World War III will break out in Europe again.
• 3:18:10
  Testecleese: And the United States will only get involved again once it involves the United States.
• 3:18:15
  Brian McFadden: Yes.
• 3:18:16
  Testecleese: Wow, that's bleak, dude.
• 3:18:21
  Testecleese: But isn't that what's happening?
• 3:18:22
  Brian McFadden: I think it needs to happen, though.
• 3:18:24
  Testecleese: Well, it's happened twice before.
• 3:18:28
  Testecleese: Right?
• 3:18:29
  Testecleese: The United States.
• 3:18:30
  Brian McFadden: And then Europe is taking advantage of the United States right now. They've been doing it for years.
• 3:18:35
  Testecleese: Absolutely. The entire world is.
• 3:18:38
  Testecleese: And I get it, the… the… the…
• 3:18:42
  Testecleese: The entire world has to use the American dollar to buy oil.
• 3:18:46
  Brian McFadden: Not anymore.
• 3:18:48
  Testecleese: Yeah, I know, not legally anymore, but…
• 3:18:51
  Testecleese: for the most part, they're still using it. That's the only reason why our money has… our dollar has ended.
• 3:18:55
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, we're using stablecoin now.
• 3:18:58
  Testecleese: What's stablecoin? I know it's a crypto thing, but…
• 3:19:02
  Brian McFadden: It's also U.S.-backed.
• 3:19:07
  Testecleese: What the fuck?
• 3:19:11
  Testecleese: I don't know, man… Now I'm starting to regret selling my silver.
• 3:19:17
  Testecleese: You know?
• 3:19:18
  Brian McFadden: I haven't saw mine yet.
• 3:19:20
  Testecleese: You got, what, 2 ounces?
• 3:19:22
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:19:23
  Testecleese: Crazy thing is, dude, if you sold it now, you would still make, like, 300% profit on it.
• 3:19:29
  Brian McFadden: Stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency designed to stay at a stable value, usually paid to something like the US dollar.
• 3:19:38
  Testecleese: Yeah, so it's tied to the US dollar.
• 3:19:40
  Brian McFadden: Not volatile like Bitcoin.
• 3:19:44
  Testecleese: No, but it's tied to the US dollar, which is volatile.
• 3:19:48
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:19:49
  Testecleese: It's the same…
• 3:19:51
  Testecleese: That's the… what we need is some kind of cryptocurrency tied directly to the amount of gold that is known about in the world.
• 3:20:01
  Testecleese: And so there's only so much to go around. That's how we're gonna do this. It doesn't have to be gold, it could be iron, it could be aluminum, for all I fucking care. It has to be something that has a finite number.
• 3:20:17
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 3:20:18
  Testecleese: Just my opinion.
• 3:20:20
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:20:21
  Testecleese: Not like I've ever studied hyperinflation or anything, or…
• 3:20:26
  Testecleese: Bought a $100 trillion bill for $5.
• 3:20:30
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, you lost it, though.
• 3:20:31
  Testecleese: I know, like I said, you can still get them for, like, 50 bucks now.
• 3:20:35
  Brian McFadden: That's too much spent, though.
• 3:20:36
  Testecleese: I know, I know. When I bought it, I didn't even buy it, I actually legitimately traded 5 US dollars for a hundred trillion…
• 3:20:44
  Testecleese: Zimbabwe dollars. Like, it was legal tender at that point.
• 3:20:53
  Testecleese: Shit, I really regret losing that. That was really cool, wasn't it?
• 3:20:57
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:20:58
  Testecleese: I remember coming on here, like, I'm a $100 trillion now, check this out!
• 3:21:02
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that was cool.
• 3:21:04
  Testecleese: Yeah, and he's like, oh yeah, what is that good for? I was like, oh, I could buy, like, a Snickers bar.
• 3:21:12
  Testecleese: Oh, yeah, they were gonna overhaul the USS Boise. It's a… What's up?
• 3:21:24
  Testecleese: Sub, I believe it's a nuclear fast attack, it's not a boomer, but I might be wrong.
• 3:21:29
  Brian McFadden: Well, it's super old, so…
• 3:21:31
  Testecleese: Yeah, they're gonna overhaul…
• 3:21:33
  Brian McFadden: They're gonna spend $3 billion on it to overhaul it.
• 3:21:36
  Testecleese: 3… 3 billion?
• 3:21:40
  Testecleese: Jeez, what does a new one cost?
• 3:21:42
  Brian McFadden: Less than that.
• 3:21:45
  Testecleese: Seriously?
• 3:21:46
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:21:48
  Testecleese: How long does it take to build a new, this sub? You know what I mean?
• 3:21:52
  Testecleese: Is it gonna be 3 years?
• 3:21:55
  Brian McFadden: Probably.
• 3:21:56
  Testecleese: 5 years?
• 3:21:58
  Brian McFadden: Is it worth it?
• 3:21:59
  Testecleese: But yeah, they canceled it because of, what's costing to, like, basically replenish the arsenal.
• 3:22:08
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:22:08
  Testecleese: Which is something that I was concerned about with all the shit we were giving and selling to Ukraine.
• 3:22:16
  Testecleese: Look, how come no one else has brought this up?
• 3:22:20
  Testecleese: They're making it sound like, oh, he needs all this money to replenish the, our weaponry.
• 3:22:25
  Testecleese: It wasn't all dropped in Iran, most of it was dropped in eastern Ukraine and western Russia.
• 3:22:34
  Testecleese: Do people on the… do people know this?
• 3:22:36
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 3:22:41
  Brian McFadden: They do not.
• 3:22:43
  Testecleese: Oh my god, dude, like, okay, no, not everyone should vote.
• 3:22:49
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:22:50
  Testecleese: If you have no idea what's going on, then you shouldn't vote. And you know what? I've known plenty of people that actually do not give a shit about any of this.
• 3:22:57
  Testecleese: And they intentionally don't vote because of that.
• 3:23:00
  Brian McFadden: Hallelujah.
• 3:23:01
  Testecleese: And I was like, no, I respect the fuck out of that!
• 3:23:04
  Testecleese: I was like, that's awesome that you could just… Pretend it's not happening.
• 3:23:09
  Testecleese: And not get… but… and you're smart enough to not get involved, thinking you're gonna make things better with your uninformed view.
• 3:23:19
  Testecleese: And let's be real, like, everyone's basically born Democrat.
• 3:23:24
  Testecleese: Everyone wants everyone to have everything, until you realize that that's not how the world works.
• 3:23:33
  Testecleese: Was it Churchill?
• 3:23:36
  Testecleese: if you… if you vote… if you don't vote Democrat, you don't have a heart, and if you don't vote Republican or conservative, you don't have, a brain.
• 3:23:45
  Testecleese: And…
• 3:23:46
  Brian McFadden: I was scared, bro.
• 3:23:48
  Testecleese: Huh?
• 3:23:49
  Brian McFadden: Sounds like Wizard of Oz.
• 3:23:51
  Testecleese: Mmm.
• 3:23:52
  Testecleese: I know those weren't the words he used, because they don't have the same parties over there, but…
• 3:23:58
  Testecleese: Oh, yeah. And now the Dems are all butthurt about this blockade of oil into Cuba.
• 3:24:07
  Testecleese: I don't care.
• 3:24:11
  Testecleese: I don't… no, I… I don't care.
• 3:24:16
  Testecleese: Cuba has had plenty of opportunities to join the fucking modern world.
• 3:24:21
  Brian McFadden: Well, and, I mean, Trump has led a couple of tinkers in recently.
• 3:24:26
  Testecleese: Yes, to make sure that… Fewer people die.
• 3:24:31
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:24:34
  Testecleese: But… Man, they were Russian too, weren't they?
• 3:24:40
  Brian McFadden: Venezuelan.
• 3:24:41
  Testecleese: Venezuelan one. Oh, oh, like I had said before!
• 3:24:46
  Testecleese: We secured the oil in Venezuela before we dealt with Iran.
• 3:24:54
  Testecleese: But no, Cuba's had plenty of opportunities to join the modern world. They're right there.
• 3:25:02
  Brian McFadden: They don't wanna.
• 3:25:04
  Testecleese: Why?
• 3:25:05
  Testecleese: You guys could be prosperous. Dude, do you know how much money they can make on tourism?
• 3:25:12
  Brian McFadden: They already do.
• 3:25:14
  Testecleese: Yeah, kinda.
• 3:25:15
  Brian McFadden: Only U.S. citizens don't… aren't allowed to go there. Everybody else… every other country in the world goes there.
• 3:25:21
  Testecleese: Yes, and U.S. citizens are the tourists that people want, because they spend a ton of money.
• 3:25:27
  Testecleese: And you know this as well as I, no matter how much someone hated you in a foreign country that you visited, they loved your American dollar, didn't they?
• 3:25:40
  Testecleese: Cuba could be wealthy, they could have cars, you know…
• 3:25:44
  Testecleese: Why are they still driving fucking 1950s cars instead of Toyotas? How's that?
• 3:25:50
  Brian McFadden: You like them.
• 3:25:51
  Testecleese: They like them. They're rebuilding these things out of fucking soda cans, you know that, right?
• 3:25:57
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:26:02
  Testecleese: That's what I'm saying, is I got a feeling that, like, even Japan's not selling them cars, or else they'd all be driving… either, everyone's so poor, they can't afford shit, which means they're not doing it right.
• 3:26:17
  Testecleese: Oh, Jesus Christ, did you read this shit? Guapos shit?
• 3:26:23
  Brian McFadden: Which one?
• 3:26:25
  Testecleese: The next one.
• 3:26:28
  Testecleese: It was a fuck.
• 3:26:29
  Brian McFadden: Oh, I started reading, I got bored with it.
• 3:26:32
  Testecleese: It was a fucking story, not an article, right?
• 3:26:37
  Testecleese: And it pissed me off, but, moral of the story, Keir Starmer has no balls,
• 3:26:44
  Testecleese: They were supposed to do something about a Russian oil tanker they had sanctioned.
• 3:26:50
  Testecleese: Yeah. And he sent the Navy to go check it out, and then they found, a Russian frigate.
• 3:26:57
  Testecleese: Next to it, and they backed off like bitches.
• 3:27:01
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:27:02
  Testecleese: And, yeah… This story is about a guy from… from a guy on the ship, And it just…
• 3:27:11
  Testecleese: UK completely bitched out?
• 3:27:13
  Testecleese: You made promises, and you just said, nope, I'm not gonna stop you.
• 3:27:20
  Testecleese: That just means they're gonna do it again, doesn't it?
• 3:27:22
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:27:26
  Testecleese: Well, this is interesting. Hong Kong is forcing… it says U.S. tourists.
• 3:27:32
  Testecleese: They're forcing U.S. tourists to reveal, like, their…
• 3:27:36
  Brian McFadden: Their iPhone back?
• 3:27:37
  Testecleese: inspires your boba.
• 3:27:39
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:27:40
  Testecleese: But it's not just U.S. to us, it's literally everyone.
• 3:27:44
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:27:45
  Testecleese: So if Hong Kong wants to do this, they… I…
• 3:27:49
  Brian McFadden: Coming from China.
• 3:27:51
  Testecleese: Huh?
• 3:27:53
  Brian McFadden: Hong Kong's part of China, so…
• 3:27:55
  Brian McFadden: Hong Kong's not forcing this, this is China doing this.
• 3:28:02
  Testecleese: Well, they just don't fucking go there if you don't want to get… let people enter your phone. You know what I mean?
• 3:28:08
  Testecleese: Like, oh, wha- let me play the Democrat card here. What are you trying to hide?
• 3:28:17
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 3:28:18
  Testecleese: If you have an issue with people looking through your shit, and you didn't do anything wrong, Or…
• 3:28:24
  Brian McFadden: Remember, China's got a social score…
• 3:28:28
  Brian McFadden: Where they decide whether you can move about the country or not, you know, based on your social media…
• 3:28:34
  Testecleese: Social credit score.
• 3:28:35
  Brian McFadden: Yes, exactly.
• 3:28:37
  Testecleese: Yes, and it's how many likes you get, basically, right?
• 3:28:43
  Testecleese: And then it decides how much liberty you get.
• 3:28:46
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:28:48
  Testecleese: What the fuck, dude?
• 3:28:53
  Testecleese: He's like, yeah, you could be a fucking angry old man, but you have to stay where you are, you're not even… you're not even allowed to go visit the Capitol, you know?
• 3:29:01
  Brian McFadden: Not at all. You're not allowed to leave the country.
• 3:29:04
  Testecleese: They can't even move about in their own country.
• 3:29:07
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:29:12
  Testecleese: Jeez.
• 3:29:14
  Testecleese: And you know what? I haven't heard of any of these people that are leaving the United States.
• 3:29:18
  Testecleese: I haven't heard about a single one of them going to fucking China, have you?
• 3:29:22
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:29:25
  Testecleese: No, it's usually, white countries or Mexico.
• 3:29:31
  Testecleese: And then they find out Mexico is even worse than fuckin'… Great Britain.
• 3:29:37
  Brian McFadden: shades.
• 3:29:38
  Testecleese: in the United States.
• 3:29:43
  Testecleese: Alright, so… this… China… the new carrier, is that the… their only… that's their only flat top, right?
• 3:29:53
  Brian McFadden: I think so.
• 3:29:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, it was a big deal when they put it out.
• 3:30:00
  Testecleese: They've got some kind of new, like, weapons tech on it or something, but I was…
• 3:30:07
  Testecleese: What got me was… it had something to do with… orbit.
• 3:30:14
  Testecleese: And I was like, well, the United States Navy can do… orbital weapons.
• 3:30:18
  Brian McFadden: They got a new hybrid air and space-based event system.
• 3:30:23
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 3:30:24
  Testecleese: Ronald Reagan Star Wars.
• 3:30:27
  Testecleese: Right? I thought we agreed as a planet not to do this.
• 3:30:32
  Brian McFadden: Well, Russia… China don't care.
• 3:30:35
  Testecleese: Does that mean we have to now?
• 3:30:37
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:30:38
  Testecleese: What about rides from God?
• 3:30:41
  Testecleese: You ever heard of this weapon?
• 3:30:43
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 3:30:44
  Testecleese: Oh, shit, this'll blow your mind, dude.
• 3:30:48
  Testecleese: They haul up a, several telephone pole-sized hunks of tungsten.
• 3:30:56
  Testecleese: Very heavy, very dense metal.
• 3:30:59
  Brian McFadden: Otherwise, some Superman would do.
• 3:31:01
  Testecleese: Well, no, they haul it up into space in a satellite that just orbits the planet, and they do this with several of them, and they just drop it from orbit
• 3:31:12
  Testecleese: And at terminal velocity.
• 3:31:14
  Testecleese: The sheer weight and mass of this thing hitting the ground has the explosive force of a nuclear weapon.
• 3:31:24
  Testecleese: Fucking terrifying, isn't it?
• 3:31:27
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:31:28
  Testecleese: And it's the size of a telephone pole, so it might even be hard to find on, radar.
• 3:31:33
  Brian McFadden: radar.
• 3:31:35
  Testecleese: Just falls out of the sky, and his city is gone.
• 3:31:40
  Testecleese: This is something that we had looked into, but then the world said, hey, we're not gonna put plant… Weapons in orbit.
• 3:31:48
  Testecleese: And apparently.
• 3:31:49
  Brian McFadden: I think China's.
• 3:31:49
  Testecleese: I'm gonna never… well…
• 3:31:52
  Testecleese: If China's… is that what we're watching fall out of the fucking sky? It's not a hunk of that giant space rock? Are we having fucking fights with China in space?
• 3:32:02
  Testecleese: over weaponry?
• 3:32:06
  Testecleese: We shoot down their new weapons system in, in orbit, and it falls through the earth and burns up. Is that what we're seeing instead of, space rock?
• 3:32:17
  Brian McFadden: Maybe.
• 3:32:18
  Testecleese: You know what I'm talking about, we've been talking about the fireballs a lot lately, haven't we?
• 3:32:23
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, and the solar flares, and all the…
• 3:32:26
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, but I'm talking specifically about the stuff falling out of the sky.
• 3:32:30
  Brian McFadden: I'm still waiting to see the Northern Lights in Michigan.
• 3:32:34
  Testecleese: Use your cell phone if you're told you're supposed to be able to see them.
• 3:32:41
  Testecleese: Your camera will pick up stuff that your eye might not be able to see, but it'll show up on your picture.
• 3:32:49
  Testecleese: I did the same thing in Massachusetts. I was like, I see some purple, some green. I took a picture, and I was like, oh, fuck! That's a crazy picture.
• 3:32:57
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:32:57
  Testecleese: And that was in Massachusetts, I got to see the Northern Lights. And by the way, that supports my theory that the freaking polls are getting ready to flip.
• 3:33:06
  Brian McFadden: Oh, boy.
• 3:33:10
  Testecleese: Why are we seeing the northern lights as far south as Virginia, dude?
• 3:33:14
  Brian McFadden: I'm not in Virginia.
• 3:33:16
  Testecleese: I know, but we've had reports of it.
• 3:33:21
  Testecleese: Tell me, man, if these poles flip, there's…
• 3:33:23
  Testecleese: There's a chance the Earth flips on its axis 90 degrees.
• 3:33:29
  Testecleese: Which would explain a lot of stuff. To include, the great flood that we hear about in every religion, right?
• 3:33:39
  Testecleese: and… It'll explain why we find mammoths.
• 3:33:43
  Testecleese: Frozen in ice with wet vegetation in their stomachs.
• 3:33:49
  Testecleese: And… the glaciers in Indonesia. Do you know Indonesia has glaciers?
• 3:33:56
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:33:58
  Testecleese: Yeah, it's a tropical climate, isn't it?
• 3:34:01
  Testecleese: The mountaintops have ice, like, glacier ice. Not just ice ice, like, glacier.
• 3:34:07
  Brian McFadden: Are you sights, baby?
• 3:34:09
  Testecleese: Well, and if the Earth shifted 90 degrees when the magnetic pole flip happened, that'll explain why the glaciers are there, because it was covered in ice, and the mountains, it's gonna melt.
• 3:34:21
  Testecleese: Much slower.
• 3:34:25
  Testecleese: I'm just… everyone's talking global warming this… I think this shit is all leading up to a… magnetic slip.
• 3:34:35
  Testecleese: And I think a lot of the world is gonna drown.
• 3:34:41
  Brian McFadden: More than likely.
• 3:34:43
  Testecleese: Oh, yeah, I actually checked out a cool
• 3:34:47
  Testecleese: Design someone did with altitude and everything.
• 3:34:52
  Testecleese: Parts of West Virginia are actually safe from the flood because of the Appalachian Mountains.
• 3:34:58
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 3:34:59
  Testecleese: Like, won't be touched at all, but most of the world will be, underwater.
• 3:35:05
  Testecleese: for days.
• 3:35:08
  Testecleese: And I was like, holy fuck.
• 3:35:12
  Testecleese: And that's assuming that… then you also have the… not just the Earth spinning around, you have to account for the immediate melting of…
• 3:35:20
  Testecleese: ICE.
• 3:35:22
  Testecleese: Is… what… what… what was the,
• 3:35:25
  Testecleese: the axis, or what was the northern South Pole, is now the equator, you know?
• 3:35:33
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 3:35:34
  Testecleese: So… Back on topic, the Supreme Leader… we've…
• 3:35:40
  Brian McFadden: The new Supreme Leader…
• 3:35:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, and… I could've… it's saying, like, how many sons does this… did this guy have?
• 3:35:48
  Brian McFadden: I don't know.
• 3:35:50
  Brian McFadden: But they're saying this is the gay son.
• 3:35:53
  Testecleese: Yeah, the one that was allegedly flown to Russia, and lost his leg.
• 3:35:57
  Brian McFadden: Now, what this article says, he's still in Iran.
• 3:36:01
  Brian McFadden: doing medical treatment, so I don't know.
• 3:36:04
  Testecleese: Conscious the whole time.
• 3:36:05
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:36:07
  Testecleese: Who cares?
• 3:36:09
  Brian McFadden: He's obviously not in charge.
• 3:36:12
  Brian McFadden: If he's unconscious…
• 3:36:14
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 3:36:15
  Brian McFadden: Somebody else is making the decisions.
• 3:36:18
  Testecleese: Oh, they, they signed the Pete… Ceasefire, didn't they?
• 3:36:22
  Brian McFadden: And then they broke it almost immediately.
• 3:36:25
  Testecleese: Well, with Israel, there was… there was no…
• 3:36:28
  Testecleese: Israel was bombing them too, to be fair.
• 3:36:32
  Brian McFadden: Well, it's all about Lebanon.
• 3:36:38
  Testecleese: I'm just saying that, they were talking about a,
• 3:36:45
  Testecleese: basically a toll system, where the United States and Iran both get a take a cut.
• 3:36:50
  Testecleese: of anything moving through the Strait of Hormuz.
• 3:36:55
  Brian McFadden: I don't even care about that. Just open up the straights.
• 3:37:00
  Testecleese: Well, but this… not only would this help Iran a lot.
• 3:37:05
  Testecleese: In general, with a legitimate business.
• 3:37:08
  Testecleese: But the United States would bring in billions of dollars a year, too.
• 3:37:15
  Brian McFadden: I mean, even though we don't get our oil through the Straits of Hormuz, our oil prices and gas prices have went up dramatically.
• 3:37:23
  Testecleese: That's just because it's less available to the world, so…
• 3:37:26
  Brian McFadden: Well, we are… we're not dependent on anybody else in the world to do it. We got our own shit.
• 3:37:32
  Testecleese: Correct. But… but you know as well as I, Brian, that we are saving that for the end of the world. Or the end of oil.
• 3:37:41
  Brian McFadden: I, I hope so.
• 3:37:43
  Testecleese: Well, we let all this affect us when we could… we won't… we haven't drilled Alaska once, have we?
• 3:37:51
  Brian McFadden: Not recently.
• 3:37:52
  Testecleese: Not recently, I don't think ever.
• 3:37:54
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, we have.
• 3:37:56
  Brian McFadden: Why do you think Alaska has its own, like.
• 3:38:01
  Brian McFadden: A fund that pays all the Alaskans up there.
• 3:38:04
  Testecleese: That's right.
• 3:38:05
  Brian McFadden: Spoil everything.
• 3:38:05
  Testecleese: There's a couple of Derricks up there, you're right.
• 3:38:08
  Brian McFadden: trouble.
• 3:38:09
  Testecleese: Yeah, you're right, but we said we're not… we're not gonna tap… Alaska like we could.
• 3:38:14
  Brian McFadden: because Biden shut it off to the world.
• 3:38:17
  Testecleese: Well, no, it was because we agreed many, many years ago that we're gonna save Alaska, and
• 3:38:23
  Testecleese: There's another state full of oil, too, I can't remember.
• 3:38:26
  Brian McFadden: Taxes?
• 3:38:26
  Testecleese: until… Yeah, Texas, we're mining hard, though, aren't we?
• 3:38:33
  Testecleese: There's another state like Montana or something, that's sitting on a ton of oil.
• 3:38:37
  Testecleese: And we said, we're gonna wait till the world runs out of oil, and then we're gonna have oil.
• 3:38:42
  Testecleese: And… At least we'll be two steps ahead of everyone else when it comes to, figuring out…
• 3:38:50
  Brian McFadden: And if it comes right down to it, we can go back to fracking, and we got millions of states that have oil we can get from fracking, you know, once the oil prices go way back up.
• 3:39:01
  Brian McFadden: And it becomes profitable again.
• 3:39:05
  Testecleese: Yes, we have tons of oil, that's the point.
• 3:39:08
  Testecleese: We're trying not to use it. We're trying to buy from other people in general.
• 3:39:13
  Testecleese: So, we still have oil.
• 3:39:17
  Testecleese: And fr-king's usually natural gas that you're getting out of that.
• 3:39:22
  Brian McFadden: You get oil, too.
• 3:39:23
  Testecleese: Yes, but that's because the natural gas is a byproduct of the oil.
• 3:39:31
  Testecleese: So, the idea is you pull the gas out when you break the earth up,
• 3:39:41
  Testecleese: And not necessarily touch the oil, but maybe get the gas out before you get the oil, you know?
• 3:39:47
  Testecleese: I could've sworn we had more there, no?
• 3:39:50
  Brian McFadden: We talked about it already.
• 3:39:51
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 3:39:53
  Testecleese: We're big.
• 3:39:54
  Brian McFadden: Oh, for, like, 3 hours.
• 3:39:56
  Testecleese: I know, I know. Fetterman! We've been talking about this guy a lot lately, yeah, he's, like, the only sound-minded Democrat.
• 3:40:03
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 3:40:05
  Testecleese: Apparently pissed everyone off his view on Israel, which I'm not even sure what that was, but apparently it caused some kind of fracture with the Dems. Maybe it's that, hey, don't kill all the Jews?
• 3:40:14
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:40:15
  Testecleese: because you don't like Netanyahu?
• 3:40:17
  Testecleese: But now there's rumors that he might, run reports.
• 3:40:21
  Brian McFadden: Go independent.
• 3:40:23
  Testecleese: Oh, I saw you…
• 3:40:24
  Brian McFadden: I'm a Republican.
• 3:40:27
  Testecleese: I saw Republican, maybe Independent.
• 3:40:31
  Brian McFadden: I think, I think if he runs, either way, he's gonna win again, you know?
• 3:40:35
  Testecleese: You think so?
• 3:40:36
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:40:38
  Brian McFadden: Because he is only… His whole…
• 3:40:42
  Brian McFadden: philosophy is old-school political philosophy. He's only doing what he thinks is best for the citizens of Pennsylvania.
• 3:40:51
  Testecleese: Yes, and he ran on… the working man. Yeah. Because he was a working man, right?
• 3:40:59
  Brian McFadden: No, he wasn't. But his parents were.
• 3:41:02
  Testecleese: Oh, okay, okay.
• 3:41:04
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that's what he ran on. He ran on the working man ticket.
• 3:41:07
  Brian McFadden: And the Democrats, I hate to say it, are not the working man anymore.
• 3:41:14
  Testecleese: No, no, and… Not for a long time, actually.
• 3:41:22
  Brian McFadden: That's why I don't talk about politics with my dad anymore, you know? Because he was in the union, and he thought Dems were the way to go all around, you know?
• 3:41:30
  Testecleese: But it's changed so much.
• 3:41:32
  Brian McFadden: He has, but he don't know that.
• 3:41:35
  Testecleese: Yeah, I tried to tell my father the same thing. He's probably younger than yours.
• 3:41:39
  Brian McFadden: There he is.
• 3:41:40
  Testecleese: But I was like, I was like, your average Democrat these days doesn't have to scrape the grime under their fingernails after a day of work.
• 3:41:47
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:41:49
  Testecleese: And he's like, oh, yeah, right. And I was like, yes!
• 3:41:52
  Testecleese: I'm not kidding you, they all… and it's like…
• 3:41:55
  Testecleese: plenty of Republicans who work from home. I was like, your average Democrat either works from home or sits in an office, and…
• 3:42:01
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:42:02
  Testecleese: does that. They're… they're not…
• 3:42:05
  Testecleese: They're not in the coal mine, they're not drilling for oil, they're not fishing, they're not…
• 3:42:10
  Brian McFadden: Oh.
• 3:42:11
  Testecleese: Slaughtering cattle for… To feed the people, you know?
• 3:42:16
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:42:18
  Testecleese: Haven't been in a long time.
• 3:42:20
  Testecleese: The thing is, they can… they think they can vote this… this kind of life away.
• 3:42:25
  Testecleese: Yeah, but this is where your food comes from.
• 3:42:27
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:42:31
  Testecleese: Fuck, dude, should there actually be a civil war?
• 3:42:35
  Testecleese: God forbid, in the United States again, these heartland states.
• 3:42:41
  Testecleese: are just gonna stop shipping food to the blue states, you know that, right?
• 3:42:46
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, I'm not in a blue state anymore. Well, technically I am, but…
• 3:42:50
  Brian McFadden: We got a lot of farms and a lot of produce here, so I think I'll survive.
• 3:42:54
  Testecleese: No, it shouldn't come down to it. Michigan's gonna pick the side of the, people that can survive without the wealthy, coastal people.
• 3:43:03
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:43:05
  Testecleese: A lot of people will be pissed off about it, but they're gonna say, hey, we can feed ourselves.
• 3:43:10
  Brian McFadden: Not gonna hunt, I can fish here.
• 3:43:13
  Testecleese: Yeah, not even that, you… we have farms, you can still go to the grocery store, and it's gonna be far… it… it's not gonna have to go to fucking Chicago or New York to get processed, they get shipped back to you, it's gonna be fresh.
• 3:43:25
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:43:27
  Testecleese: Your food quality will actually go up if we cut the rest of the country off at this point.
• 3:43:34
  Brian McFadden: I actually have people in the family that raise cows and raise pigs.
• 3:43:38
  Brian McFadden: And we're in the process of purchasing some pig when it's ready for harvest here in a few months.
• 3:43:44
  Brian McFadden: For ourselves.
• 3:43:46
  Testecleese: Oh, you're gonna… you're gonna dig a pit?
• 3:43:49
  Brian McFadden: No. We're gonna, like, slot… we're gonna take it to the processor and get bacon made out of it, pork chops…
• 3:43:57
  Testecleese: Completely butchered, okay.
• 3:43:58
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, whatever we want out of it, we're gonna make it, and put it in the freezer, and eat it as we go.
• 3:44:04
  Testecleese: I know what you're talking about,
• 3:44:05
  Testecleese: My sister bought a half-cow once, which I thought was weird, but… No.
• 3:44:10
  Brian McFadden: Oh, weird.
• 3:44:11
  Testecleese: I thought you meant you were gonna have a pig roast.
• 3:44:15
  Brian McFadden: I could do that too, but I'm not planning on that. I'm planning on, like…
• 3:44:23
  Testecleese: You ever done a pig roast?
• 3:44:28
  Testecleese: There's a couple ways to deal with,
• 3:44:31
  Testecleese: Personally, I think the best way is you dig a pit, like, 6 feet deep.
• 3:44:35
  Brian McFadden: Hell yeah.
• 3:44:36
  Brian McFadden: You gotta have an educator with that.
• 3:44:40
  Testecleese: Actually, mine can actually do 6 feet deep.
• 3:44:42
  Brian McFadden: I know it can.
• 3:44:44
  Testecleese: But yeah, then you light a fire and get hot, hot coals, and you cover that in palm leaves.
• 3:44:50
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:44:51
  Testecleese: Yeah, you know exactly what I'm talking about, right?
• 3:44:53
  Brian McFadden: I've seen it on many Hawaiian shows.
• 3:44:56
  Testecleese: Wouldn't you love to do a proper pig roast in Michigan? Problem is, you gotta friggin' cook the entire pig then.
• 3:45:02
  Testecleese: And anything left over, you have to figure out what to do with.
• 3:45:06
  Brian McFadden: Freeze it.
• 3:45:06
  Testecleese: You know?
• 3:45:07
  Testecleese: Freezy, yes, but… Ideally, you would have enough people to eat most of the pig.
• 3:45:12
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 3:45:15
  Testecleese: Or just get a smaller pig.
• 3:45:17
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:45:20
  Testecleese: Man, that sounds like a good time, doesn't it?
• 3:45:23
  Brian McFadden: Does? Definitely does.
• 3:45:25
  Testecleese: Well, you clearly eat pork if you're getting a pig.
• 3:45:28
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah? The wife won't touch it.
• 3:45:31
  Testecleese: stuff. The wife won't touch it. I'm like, oh my god, the tenderloin.
• 3:45:36
  Testecleese: Is the best cut of meat possibly out there.
• 3:45:39
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:45:40
  Testecleese: Especially the ones at Smithfield, out there in Virginia, has already cut down into, like, a dinner portion for an entire family.
• 3:45:50
  Testecleese: And it's pre-seasoned for me.
• 3:45:55
  Testecleese: Oh, it's… oh, it's great. So, and they give me instructions on how to cook it.
• 3:46:01
  Brian McFadden: Nice.
• 3:46:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, I don't give a shit.
• 3:46:05
  Testecleese: about… JP Morgan might be joining the predictions market.
• 3:46:13
  Brian McFadden: I know what that means.
• 3:46:16
  Testecleese: like, polymarket and all that stuff, it's kind of like…
• 3:46:20
  Brian McFadden: I know what a bully market is, I've heard enough about it. You can basically bet on anything.
• 3:46:25
  Testecleese: No, but it's not betting.
• 3:46:28
  Testecleese: You're buying steaks and an opinion.
• 3:46:31
  Testecleese: Right? That's how they get around the gambling.
• 3:46:34
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 3:46:37
  Testecleese: Crazy thing is, the… what polymarket says is usually what happens.
• 3:46:48
  Testecleese: So, we'll see, I don't know what I think of this, but…
• 3:46:53
  Brian McFadden: Do you care about anything else in this?
• 3:46:56
  Testecleese: I don't know, your boy a hooker.
• 3:46:59
  Testecleese: lost.
• 3:47:00
  Brian McFadden: Only because it's a sailing thing.
• 3:47:05
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, this guy and his… this married couple, they bought a sailboat, they started sailing around the world, they made it to Bahamas.
• 3:47:15
  Brian McFadden: And then… They were leaving? Huh?
• 3:47:19
  Testecleese: Then she went missing.
• 3:47:21
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, she fell off the dinghy on the way back to their sailboat after a night at the restaurant slash bar.
• 3:47:29
  Brian McFadden: Apparently, the waves were really bad that day, and they probably shouldn't have even left the shore because of how bad the waves were. They only had an 8-foot dinghy and a small R-board motor.
• 3:47:42
  Brian McFadden: She had the… the motor key hooked to her arm, so they say.
• 3:47:49
  Brian McFadden: So, when she fell off the dinghy, the motor stopped working.
• 3:47:53
  Testecleese: Yeah, he was SOL, too, stuck in the dinghy.
• 3:47:56
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, he had to paddle his way back to shore. Apparently, this is… this is crazy… there's a lot of things that don't add up to this story.
• 3:48:05
  Testecleese: Well, he didn't go…
• 3:48:05
  Brian McFadden: Because they… apparently, they left the shore at, like, 7.30 at night, but he didn't make it back to shore until, like, 4 o'clock in the morning the next day to report her missing to…
• 3:48:18
  Brian McFadden: the… the Bahama Police, or the Jamaica Police, wherever the hell they were, I don't know.
• 3:48:25
  Testecleese: Bahamas, I believe.
• 3:48:26
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:48:28
  Brian McFadden: That's a long time to, like…
• 3:48:31
  Brian McFadden: Make it back to shore, even with paddles.
• 3:48:34
  Brian McFadden: You know…
• 3:48:36
  Testecleese: I don't know, if the waves are bad enough to wash her away that he couldn't even look for her, it might have taken him that long.
• 3:48:42
  Brian McFadden: Said he threw her a life raft.
• 3:48:46
  Brian McFadden: And that he… and then he called her daughter up later on and said, they found her life… the rifle raft I threw over, but they haven't found her yet, you know, type deal. Apparently…
• 3:48:57
  Brian McFadden: He… there have been domestic abuse charges applied against the couple in the past, too, so…
• 3:49:05
  Testecleese: So you're thinking there's a cinder block tied to her anchor, or…
• 3:49:08
  Brian McFadden: I definitely think that.
• 3:49:09
  Testecleese: At the bottom of the ocean.
• 3:49:10
  Brian McFadden: Yep, definitely.
• 3:49:13
  Testecleese: Because otherwise her body would have washed up by now, right?
• 3:49:15
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, hell yeah. Yep.
• 3:49:17
  Testecleese: Which means it will in a couple weeks.
• 3:49:20
  Brian McFadden: Probably.
• 3:49:21
  Testecleese: And the… the water…
• 3:49:22
  Brian McFadden: He's already been arrested, but not charged with anything. I don't know how long they can charge him.
• 3:49:27
  Brian McFadden: Not hold them for arrest without charging, but, you know, we'll see.
• 3:49:33
  Testecleese: And his name is Hooker?
• 3:49:35
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:49:38
  Testecleese: Interesting.
• 3:49:40
  Testecleese: I mean, I get it.
• 3:49:42
  Brian McFadden: I'm into sailing, so those articles always pique my interest, you know.
• 3:49:46
  Testecleese: Drowning is a real… real, threat with sailing, let's be real. Especially if you're sailboat sailing.
• 3:49:55
  Testecleese: Yeah. Right?
• 3:49:56
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 3:49:57
  Testecleese: main… Brian, let's be… let's be 100% honest about… Your sailing habits.
• 3:50:06
  Testecleese: You go out into pretty decently deep waters, out into the, like, the river, right?
• 3:50:13
  Brian McFadden: Chesapeake Bay.
• 3:50:15
  Testecleese: I was gonna say, into the intimus.
• 3:50:18
  Testecleese: strong currents, you use the wind to get through it. As you drink beer, right?
• 3:50:23
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 3:50:25
  Testecleese: A sudden storm could easily capsize your vessel.
• 3:50:30
  Testecleese: In the intimus, and you… you could be washed 80 miles in an hour.
• 3:50:37
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 3:50:38
  Testecleese: Depending on how the tides are moving, and etc, etc, you have no idea.
• 3:50:45
  Brian McFadden: I got a 4-foot keel on my sailboat. It's gonna take… it's gonna take a hell of a lot to capsize the boat.
• 3:50:52
  Testecleese: Okay, not capsize, then. You got tossed off, because the wind shifted, the boom came around, hit you in the rib cage, and you got thrown off the side of the boat.
• 3:51:02
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 3:51:04
  Testecleese: Same idea. Now you have a nasty rib injury, because you got nailed by the boom.
• 3:51:08
  Brian McFadden: Nuh.
• 3:51:09
  Testecleese: Which, by the way, Tina still brings up to this day.
• 3:51:12
  Brian McFadden: I'm sure she does.
• 3:51:15
  Testecleese: Right in the face, dude, right in the fore.
• 3:51:17
  Brian McFadden: We warned her! We warned her!
• 3:51:21
  Testecleese: No, that's the crazy thing, she's like, I'm not mad at you, I… because I didn't understand the terminology, I just wish you had used different words so I understood.
• 3:51:30
  Brian McFadden: Hell down!
• 3:51:31
  Testecleese: Like, all I did was turn around and look and get nailed in the face by the boom. I was like, we yelled coming about!
• 3:51:38
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, she didn't understand, I understand.
• 3:51:42
  Testecleese: And that's the crazy thing is.
• 3:51:45
  Testecleese: I was not even a sailboat sailor, but I still knew the term, and it might have just been because of Navy training, I'm not sure.
• 3:51:52
  Brian McFadden: Sure.
• 3:51:53
  Testecleese: But I heard coming about, and I… bent right over. You know, I was like, get out of the way of that thing!
• 3:52:02
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 3:52:02
  Testecleese: Do people understand this?
• 3:52:05
  Testecleese: Do people understand how sailboats work?
• 3:52:08
  Brian McFadden: Most people don't.
• 3:52:11
  Testecleese: Yeah, it catches the wind.
• 3:52:14
  Brian McFadden: That's how we sail through the… that's how we roll around.
• 3:52:17
  Brian McFadden: Sailor.
• 3:52:18
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 3:52:20
  Brian McFadden: I think that's our shit.
• 3:52:21
  Testecleese: I think it is, I'm just curious,
• 3:52:24
  Testecleese: How many, sales you got?
• 3:52:30
  Brian McFadden: What the hell?
• 3:52:31
  Testecleese: No, how many sales you got on your boat?
• 3:52:33
  Audio shared by Testecleese: Just…
• 3:52:33
  Testecleese: 1?
• 3:52:34
  Audio shared by Testecleese: 2.
• 3:52:36
  Testecleese: Jib?
• 3:52:38
  Brian McFadden: We got a jib and a main sale.
• 3:52:40
  Testecleese: Alright.
