ICE Deports Milo, California Ballot Showdown & America’s Tomb Raiders | TMI Ep 452 · The TMI Show with Ted Rall and Manila Chan

0:21
Good morning. It is Monday, August 31st, the
0:24
last day of August already. I'm Manila Chan,
0:26
that'd be Ted Raul, and you are tuned in to the
0:29
TMI show, the Ted Manila Information Show, because
0:32
we bring you way too much information on this
0:33
show. We do it live Monday through Friday, 10
0:35
a .m. Eastern time. Please be sure to hit the
0:37
like button, the subscribe, the share, all that
0:39
good stuff, so we can hopefully try to continue
0:44
to do this because Rumble is screwing us and
0:48
YouTube messes with us. We're trying to figure
0:49
some stuff out. So I think Robbie's the one that
0:55
brought us to Rumble and made everything happen.
0:58
And then Rumble decided to shit the bed. Right,
1:02
Robbie? Pretty much. I mean, today is going to
1:06
tell the tale because we get last month's payout
1:09
today. Then we will get the new numbers from
1:13
the creator program, probably around a third
1:15
or the fourth. And so that's really going to
1:18
tell the story. Uh, I had been pivoting more
1:23
to YouTube with the, with the gaming channel.
1:27
You love it. You love it. Yeah. It's, it's crazy.
1:32
So, I mean, really what the hope is, I think
1:34
what's going to end up having to happen is that's
1:36
going to be very rough to use, very soft to use
1:38
both platforms in order in different ways. Yeah.
1:42
I see a way around it. In different ways, but
1:46
we could talk about that another day. But anyway,
1:48
um, a lot of stuff happened Hey, we've got some
1:51
George Santos news. He's your favorite congressman,
1:53
Manila. I do enjoy him. I love that So, you know
1:58
Cal she the betting thing they have issued their
2:02
first ever lifetime ban to a human ever Guess
2:07
who got it? Yeah, that's right the the lion of
2:11
eastern queens northwestern long island george
2:14
santos. Um, he uh Made bets on his own attendance
2:19
at a trump's speech I bet i'll be there Or I
2:26
bet i'll not be there. I mean, yeah, that's that's
2:29
hard to go wrong. You're not gonna You could
2:32
probably accomplish that one I would think if
2:35
they were going to ban someone, they were going
2:36
to ban that, um, the Trump teleprompter guy,
2:39
if it was going to be a lifetime ban, but I didn't
2:41
know Santa's Santa's was doing that. Yeah, it
2:43
should be banned, but I got to admit I Ted you
2:49
as, as much as you and JT love the chicks with
2:52
the crazy eyes where like a woman can look at
2:55
them and immediately assess like that chick is
2:57
bat shit crazy. Don't go near her. Right. You
3:00
and Jamar are like, uh, drooling. So for straight
3:05
women, when we see George Santos, he's like this
3:10
lovable and pudgy, flamboyant, pudgy, like very
3:15
pretty gay man. You can't help yourselves. It's
3:19
to a flame. But not sexually, right? I mean,
3:24
like, you don't want to we just love you don't
3:26
want to get with him. No, no, no, no, we just
3:29
love and want and want all the George Santas
3:32
is in our circle. Why cuz he cuz he's fabulous
3:35
cuz he's hilarious and fabulous and he just doesn't
3:40
give a shit. Oh Well, that's for sure. He definitely
3:42
doesn't give a shit about He just does whatever
3:48
and it's it's kind he's amusing. He's a free
3:51
radical music. Yeah, he's amazing What one thing
3:54
Manila you're less green today than you were
3:56
before now. You don't look like you're you're
3:58
half broken as opposed to being a full blooded
4:00
Vulcan. So if you're going the right way. Yeah,
4:02
you look sickly today. Yeah. Oh, like, you look
4:06
one Joe wrote like Joe Rogan on CNN Ivermectin
4:10
story. I don't know. I don't know. Like that
4:12
sick. No, no, you're kind of like you're kind
4:15
of like a a Vulcan with jaundice. I think it's
4:19
probably the best way to describe it. Always.
4:21
So maybe it's moving their AI is moving me in
4:23
the right direction because I can't control it.
4:27
It's racism. I lost my whole black and white.
4:34
I wanted to like click the black and white button
4:35
and do like a film noir. Oh, you could do that.
4:40
And it but it won't let me. What do you mean?
4:42
Is that like not an option? It was an option
4:46
until I messed with it and put the 4k camera
4:49
in and then took out the 4k camera. So I don't
4:53
know. I don't know what's going on. So I was
4:54
going to contact the help desk over there. So
4:57
We'll see but anyway, it's not a it's not a it's
4:59
not a thing that would happen on stream yard
5:01
No No, it is the camera's software their internal
5:06
software because they have their proprietary
5:08
Whole thing. Yeah, whatever. We'll see. All right,
5:12
let's get to the show. So welcome It's another
5:15
crazy week in the in the year of our Lord Donald
5:18
Trump Oh today's fun All right I had I would
5:28
didn't do this story from from Thursday and Friday.
5:33
Yeah. We have to talk about it because I just
5:37
can't wait to see what happens next. People know
5:41
obviously who Milo Yiannopoulos is, right? Like
5:44
he was hanging out with George Santos on... Maybe
5:47
you should show a picture of him because I mean,
5:49
I think a big part for people who may have forgotten
5:51
him, when you see your picture, his picture,
5:54
you're going to be like, oh, I remember that
5:56
dude. I remember him. Let's see. Let's see. Let's
6:01
go. Images. Oh, gosh. All right, why don't you
6:04
read the story and I'll dig it up. I'll do it.
6:07
I'm just going to I'm just going to put this
6:08
up here. I'm going to share the screen with all
6:11
kinds of pictures. All right, hold on. Let me
6:17
throw that up there. Mm hmm. There you go. All
6:22
right. You guys see Milo? These are like all
6:25
kinds of pictures of. Of Milo, but. Probably
6:30
this one, probably. Sums him up the best. He's
6:35
also a flamboyant. I don't know if he's He was
6:38
gay and now he says he's not gay. He's a reformed
6:41
gay, but I think he's still gay. I Don't know
6:45
what happened to Ted Ted took himself off So
6:51
that's Milo Yiannopoulos British he's a Greek
6:56
British I Don't know commentator I don't know
7:01
right -wing activists. I don't know. I don't
7:03
know what to call. I don't know. He was a bread
7:04
You didn't know he's a moron. We lost that's
7:08
the correct term I didn't know he was a bread.
7:10
So he is like this I'd say he's a very good -looking
7:15
dude a big tall good -looking. I mean you tell
7:18
me Mila I mean, I I mean you'd be a better judge.
7:21
He's not my type, but he's handsome He's kind
7:24
of like he's a little bit like a Like an Alexander
7:27
scars guard kind of like kind of yeah, yeah He's
7:31
a handsome guy, I guess but but I thought he
7:34
was an American. I mean, I thought he was a Greek
7:36
American I didn't know no British national and
7:40
he's been he he was really a big deal ten years
7:44
ago 15. Yeah He's got a thick British accent.
7:48
He's an early online right -wing influencer.
7:51
I think influencer Yeah, okay. I hate the world.
7:55
Yeah, so Ted this was news to Ted Ted was like
7:58
he's deported I didn't know he wasn't American.
8:03
I mean, you know, yeah, I've always he's British.
8:05
He has a thick British So as the article would
8:09
have it they call him a far -right provocateur,
8:12
so I sure that's fair Sure, come on. That is
8:16
true Spent years demanding tougher immigration
8:19
enforcement. I got to get through the story.
8:22
Hold on. He spent years Demanding tougher immigration
8:26
enforcement for the US Forget his his motherland
8:30
of England. By the way, why would he I don't
8:33
understand? Okay, if you're Okay, let's just
8:36
say There's a there's a image well, I mean for
8:40
example Greece has immigration issues, right
8:43
because they get all those ships from Africa.
8:47
So why would I have an opinion about that? Like,
8:51
Greece should control its borders. I mean, I'm
8:53
not a Greek national. Right, because he's neither
8:55
American or he has no ancestry here. He's not
9:01
a Greek national. Yeah, he's not ethnically...
9:03
Well, he's not, yeah. What is his connection
9:06
except that he was here? I don't know. We own
9:11
the social media that made him famous, I guess.
9:13
I don't know. I have no idea. So ICE arrested
9:17
the 41 -year -old British commentator Thursday
9:19
at Louis Armstrong in New Orleans, the International
9:23
Airport there. Allegedly he was there because
9:27
he works with Kanye West. He is Kanye West's
9:31
comms director. Oh boy. That must be an interesting
9:35
job. He's a comms director. for Kanye West. So
9:40
he was there for the concert. So they they nab
9:43
him at the airport. And by Friday, like 24 hours
9:48
lickety split, he is deported boom back to the
9:51
UK. Right? So on what on what grounds? We'll
9:56
get there. So according to the Department of
9:57
Homeland Security, Yiannopoulos legally entered
10:00
the United States back in May of 2019, but has
10:03
since overstayed his visa. An immigration judge
10:06
issued a final removal order on July 22nd after
10:10
he failed to appear for a hearing. In other words,
10:13
Milo was not caught sneaking across the border.
10:16
He just simply stayed, skipped court, and apparently
10:19
assumed the rules for less fabulous people. The
10:23
arrest Carried an extra helping of irony. Yiannopoulos
10:28
once called for ICE checkpoints at supermarkets,
10:32
gas stations, intersections, and government buildings
10:35
with immediate deportation for anyone unable
10:38
to prove legal residency. He also declared in
10:41
2025 that America needed to deport quote millions
10:44
and millions and millions of people. Of course,
10:47
never assuming he'd be one of them. Or just him.
10:51
Turns out millions can include This one former
10:54
Breitbart editor, conservative activist Laura
10:57
Loomer, a longtime Yiannopoulos rival, but they
11:00
were friends. He was her comms director at one
11:03
point when she was like starting to come up.
11:07
She claimed. What a viper's pit. She claimed
11:12
that she alerted ICE. She said he got loomered.
11:16
That's what she calls it. It's a thing. So when
11:19
she. What a gross lady. What a gross woman. She's
11:22
a horrible whatever. Nasty bitch. So she's like,
11:24
you got loomered. You got loomered. I want loomered
11:28
to get loomered. So it could be a regular person.
11:29
You could be a regular person. You could be a
11:31
Milo. You could be whoever, but she's going to
11:34
drop the dime on you. She allegedly was trying
11:38
to loomer Max Blumenthal when he came back from
11:41
Iran covering the war. But he's an American.
11:44
I know, but she tried to get him arrested. For
11:46
what? For aiding a terrorist organization. Okay,
11:53
that what? Yeah, what organization so when Max
11:58
and his wife Came back from Iran. They were there
12:02
for like a few days or whatever to cover the
12:04
war and Apparently he and Max and Laura Loomer
12:11
had this online beef going and Loomer decided
12:16
to I don't know alert Homeland Security and say
12:20
that Max was aiding America's enemies in Iran
12:25
by going over there, whatever. He's a fucking
12:28
journalist. So when he came back through Dulles,
12:30
they see they seized him at the at the check
12:34
at the at customs, seized his his computers,
12:38
cell phones. That's what they always want to
12:39
do. Yeah, he sees everything. And then she went
12:42
all over Twitter saying Max Blumenthal got loomer.
12:46
So she's making her own thing loomer. You got
12:50
loomered. So Milo apparently got loomered. So
12:55
Trump borders are Tom Homan said numerous people
12:57
provided tips, but denied that Yiannopoulos received
13:01
any preferential treatment by being deported
13:05
in roughly 24 hours. He had his due process says
13:08
Homan ice removed him. It's that simple. So look,
13:12
you and I have talked about that's the thing
13:14
is how many months whenever anyone says it's
13:17
that simple. It's not. It's not. No. How many
13:21
people are caught up in the system from lost
13:25
in the system for months and months and months
13:27
when they get nabbed by ICE, right? They get
13:29
hauled away to these fucking ICE black sites
13:31
and we never hear from them. Their families think
13:33
they're missing and they're dead or whatever.
13:35
True. Maybe they reappear six months later, five
13:38
months later. Milo gets held for all of 24 hours
13:43
and then he's on a flight back to London. Right.
13:47
And I have a theory behind this, but let me finish
13:50
the story. So Laura Loomer is over here running
13:56
her mouth and obviously trying to get rid of
13:59
him, trying to get rid of him because their beef
14:02
has really gone to like extra special heights.
14:07
And we'll explain that, including her claiming
14:11
that she, she joined the mile high club with
14:15
POTUS. Mm -hmm. Uh -huh. Yeah No No, I so no,
14:26
I don't yeah, I don't know about that either.
14:28
So, okay So really that's that's pretty much
14:30
the end of the article, but you know, it's the
14:31
irony. We can't I mean, I'm sure she'd liked
14:34
you That part. I that's what I say. So Milo was
14:38
on Tim pools podcast and thank you for Thank
14:42
you to nerd for sending that to me all the clips
14:45
that I saw and I was like, I barfed in my mouth
14:47
a little bit. But Milo says when he was still
14:51
friends with Laura, that she told their little
14:55
gaggle of friends that she allegedly polished
15:01
the president's knob on Air Force One. What a
15:07
gross web we weave. and so Milo Milo was on a
15:12
podcast just airing out her dirty laundry ironically
15:16
on on Tim Poole's podcast with George Santos
15:20
George Santos was on it it's all strange yeah
15:27
mix of people and so I guess you know he and
15:30
Loomer got had a falling out now Loomer's like
15:34
got way too much influence I would say on POTUS
15:37
and I would say they did not keep Milo in the
15:41
holding facility for very long because They know
15:44
that he has a platform with millions and millions
15:46
of people watching That they don't want him to
15:50
witness the atrocities at these ice Holding that's
15:53
what it is. That's what I think that he might
15:55
yeah that he things have to look okay for him,
15:59
right? So they they're like no, we always process
16:02
people very quickly. I mean look how we process
16:05
Abrego Garcia. We sent him back to El Salvador,
16:11
lickety split. But with Milo, obviously, it's
16:16
not necessarily preferential treatment, I would
16:19
say it's because they're scared shitless that
16:22
he's going to see things at the ice facilities.
16:24
And when he gets back to England, that he's going
16:28
to run his mouth on a podcast and say, and I
16:30
saw them molesting this little, you know, 16
16:33
year old girl. And I saw, you know, this guy
16:36
over there having a seizure and wasn't getting
16:38
medical help. That's what they're afraid of.
16:40
That's why they deported him much faster than
16:44
anybody else, because That shit is happening
16:46
at these ICE deportation sites, these holding
16:49
facilities, as they would have it. But if someone
16:53
like Milo Yiannopoulos sees it, he's like turned
16:56
on MAGA. He used to be hardcore MAGA, but he's
16:58
turned. He's like... What's his story now? Is
17:00
he a Democrat now? No, no, no, no, no. He's still
17:04
very, very right wing. He's just... I don't know
17:06
how to characterize. Is he like Tucker Carlson
17:09
-y type? More... Crazy than Tucker obviously
17:15
Tucker has is somewhat measured and populist
17:19
He's still super right -wing. He's just anti
17:22
Trump now Mm -hmm, and he's running his mouth
17:25
all over the place And and he's still I think
17:29
he's still got some tinges of like of like You
17:34
know like white white national I can't even say
17:38
national because he's not, he's not an American
17:40
national, but yeah. Well, he can be a fascist.
17:44
That's the word we're looking for. That's it.
17:46
That's the word. Is it though based on race?
17:51
Well, but he is a, I mean, come on, he's a fascist.
17:56
Would you say? I don't know. He's just, he's
18:01
kind of racist. That's all, but it's weird because
18:04
he's Kanye West's comms guy. Well, oh, come on,
18:07
that's not that weird. But then Kanye is also
18:11
known to praise. Yes. That's exactly my point.
18:15
It's just a very bizarre world that those people
18:18
are in where you can't, I don't know, you can't
18:21
really pinpoint. Hey, by the way, we're not on
18:23
YouTube right now. Yeah, I know. Why not? Because
18:28
you got to read. This is something for after
18:30
the show. You got to read. You got to read the
18:32
stuff I share. We should be doing it through
18:34
StreamYard. No. No, no, you just got to read
18:38
the Read this stuff. We share on week. I read
18:41
it. It's not it doesn't make any sense Why are
18:44
we not on YouTube because the algorithms we're
18:46
actually fucking ourselves by going live on YouTube
18:49
You're gonna post it later Yeah, that little
18:56
thing going live actually is detrimental to us
18:59
on Because of how the So this Milo thing, what
19:06
do you have to say? And then we'll move on because
19:08
I think this is hilarious that the irony obviously,
19:13
right? And I do like, how do you, Milo is not
19:16
poor, right? He has stuff. What happens? I mean,
19:23
what happens if you get shipped out in 24 hours?
19:26
Like what happens to your stuff? How do you tie
19:31
up loose ends? You don't. You have to have your
19:34
but you have to have your friends do it for you,
19:36
right? I mean, well, how else are you gonna do
19:38
it? They don't care I mean just think look The
19:42
thing is Manila it is like it's like the local
19:45
cops the local cops don't care about you So let's
19:48
just say you take any medications that you need
19:52
in for example in your case I'm sure you might
19:54
have some cancer medications that you take after
19:57
you know Okay. Well, okay in my case I need an
20:02
asthma inhaler, right? Yes. Okay. And they won't
20:05
let you get it? If I'm arrested, they're gonna
20:08
confiscate my inhaler and not let me get it.
20:10
And if I have an asthma attack, they will not
20:12
call for a pulmonologist or let me have a nebulizer
20:15
and I will die in prison. Okay, they don't care.
20:18
Wait, how can that, how? They do that every fucking
20:21
day. If you are psychotic and you have SSRIs
20:26
to keep you sane, Same thing they take them away.
20:29
So it's the same thing here. They don't care
20:32
They're like they're not giving you any fucking
20:35
time to go and wrap up your loose ends They're
20:38
just like you're gone. They put you on a fucking
20:40
put on a on a and you might have like businesses
20:44
and houses and Children in the United States.
20:48
They don't care like oh, no, what? No one's gonna
20:50
pick up little Bobby when you little Timmy, you
20:53
know from school, even though he's eight years
20:55
old Oh, well, maybe he gets killed by the Epstein
20:58
class and eaten. I mean, you know, it's just
21:00
no one cares. For all we know, Milo's cat is
21:03
sitting there starving the last three or four
21:04
days. Oh, 100 percent. If you ever watched reality
21:08
winner interviews with her, she had dogs. And
21:12
when they arrested her, basically she had to
21:15
call. She was lucky to find someone to come and
21:17
take care of her dog. The FBI didn't give a shit
21:20
if her dogs died. I mean, so there's just there's
21:24
just assholes, right? I mean law enforcement
21:27
people are assholes And that and they do not
21:31
there's no consideration only way you can get
21:34
around that is if you are lucky enough to get
21:36
in front of a judge and you have a good lawyer
21:38
and the lawyer is able to negotiate and says
21:41
your honor mr. Yabla has a you know, he has a
21:47
delicatessen in downtown Los Angeles he needs
21:49
to Uh, you know make sure it's up. It's okay.
21:52
We need another like three weeks if that's okay
21:55
You know what? I mean like you can negotiate
21:57
for that Well, that's that's horrible, I mean
22:03
well I guess to tom homans point There you go.
22:07
It's proof that milo did not get preferential
22:10
treatment and ray. Thank you for the donation
22:12
ray says He was once married to a black man.
22:15
So he's a bad fascist racist Okay. Was he married?
22:22
Well, he says he's straight now, so I don't know.
22:25
Well, he was probably just a, I mean, you know,
22:27
like, that's the thing, right? Racist people.
22:30
I mean, it's like a lot of, like, homophobes
22:32
are secretly, like, you know, into gay sex. Oh,
22:36
oh, oh. Right. It's like that. Oh, right. So
22:38
when you're, like, overtly racist, it really
22:40
means, like, you're into... Yeah, it's like it's
22:44
it's kiki for you you're like, of course you're
22:46
gonna explore that taboo, right people psychologically
22:50
love to Create a taboo for themselves so that
22:53
they can then violate it Mr. Lee says he's not
22:57
Racist necessarily against everybody just South
23:00
Asians. So I guess he doesn't like Indians. Well,
23:03
I have a question seriously Is it racist not
23:07
to want to become a minority in your own country?
23:10
Because I told me is the question if you have
23:13
plunging birth rates and you import people through
23:16
massive numbers from the rest of the world To
23:19
the point where you're like London right now
23:21
is Majority immigrant the British people are
23:25
a minority in their own capital They're they're
23:28
projected become a minor British. They got one
23:30
more white guy. No, they got one more white guy
23:32
going British to be British is to be a British
23:36
citizen, so You're not by definition. They're
23:39
not a minority in their own capital. You're saying
23:42
ethnically What you're really talking about is
23:45
white people british people the aboriginal people
23:48
of the british isles You are a no obligation
23:51
whatsoever. Well, shall we say england england?
23:53
In other words, you're talking about english
23:55
welsh and scots and so on Yes, tom. Yes i'm talking
23:59
about the british people the british people incorporates
24:03
people who are not who are not welsh You know,
24:07
Scottish, et cetera. Okay. White English people.
24:10
That's why you're here. And that's perfectly.
24:13
So, so, so let me dumb this down. If you're a,
24:15
if you're a white Anglo Saxon, you have zero
24:20
obligation, or if you're a white German or a
24:23
white Frenchman or a white Austrian or Polish.
24:26
You have zero obligation whatsoever to come.
24:29
I know a minority in your own country. Expression
24:32
of your own country brings in people from Pakistan
24:35
who run grooming gangs and to call it that you
24:37
called racist. If you point out the fact that
24:40
dear you're seeing people weren't where they
24:44
were nice whiteys. But they weren't imported.
24:49
That's the difference here. And so the question
24:51
I'm trying to get from from the two of you. Does
24:54
it make you a racist not to want to become a
24:56
minority in your own country? So for example,
24:59
if we inverted this, if we say that the population
25:02
of the Indian subcontinent was going to become
25:06
70 % European by 2080, would that be a bad thing?
25:11
If the East India Company had their way. If the
25:15
Dutch kept hanging out. So I like what you're
25:19
trying to do here, but answer the question. Is
25:22
it wrong? Oh, I will answer it Let me I want
25:25
to let Manila go first on the on the ground.
25:27
You know, I don't feel like that's racist Robbie
25:29
I have nothing to say to that like I think I
25:31
I think when you come if you're Of a different
25:35
ethnicity such as my family was you come and
25:37
you you come you choose the country that you
25:39
come to Because you want to be like them and
25:43
you should assimilate You know to I mean you
25:47
can hang on to your your ethnic roots or whatever
25:49
but it's it would behoove you to assimilate and
25:53
the well -dressed nerd thank you for your donation
25:55
nerd says about about milo that they got pissed
25:59
at him he fell out on the zinus direction oh
26:02
and of course he's team candice and tucker so
26:06
it was downhill from there then larry loomer
26:09
uh the benny johnson stuff that was the big fallout
26:12
oh because allegedly um he outed Benny Johnson
26:18
as a homosexual as a gay. Oh, I've always said
26:22
that Benny Johnson is gay. You did. That's true.
26:25
Look at him He is pretty well, yeah He's married
26:32
with kids. Oh, yeah. Well, okay. I know And Benny
26:39
Johnson is super right -wing like like he shits
26:41
on Cuba all the time. He should anyway You guys
26:44
know who Benny Johnson is. So Milo is outing
26:47
everybody just left and right. And George Santos
26:49
was telling him like, Oh my God, Milo, you can't
26:52
do that. Milo's like, Milo's like, the fuck I
26:55
can't. And he and George goes, OK, correction.
27:00
You probably shouldn't. You're going to get sued
27:02
for libel. Milo Yiannopoulos is the original
27:08
Nick Fuentes. If you're going to say that Nick
27:13
Fuentes doesn't get laid Milo gets laid, right?
27:18
Nick Fuentes doesn't have sex. I thought Nick
27:21
Fuentes isn't Nick Fuentes a he says he's celibate.
27:24
He says he's about isn't he isn't he in cell?
27:28
He's a moron I don't know if he's an in cell.
27:31
He's definitely a moron. But the point I'm trying
27:33
to make is for example, if you're gonna be a
27:36
right winger And you say, okay, then what you
27:39
need to do is get married and have a bunch of
27:41
kids. Then you don't get married and then you
27:45
don't have kids yourself. Or if you do get married,
27:46
you get married to another dude. That kind of
27:48
really wrecks your credibility if your whole
27:51
concern is ethno supremacy or ethno nationalism.
27:57
Like for example, I'm married to a black woman.
27:59
So for me, it's not particularly a ethnic thing,
28:02
but is a cultural issue. So it's probably a good
28:05
idea to close the borders, have mass deportations,
28:08
do it the right way. Don't become a police state.
28:10
Go ahead and deport 50, 60, 70 million people.
28:14
Go ahead, do it the right way. The kind of country
28:16
that's going to have mass deportations is going
28:18
to become a police state just by virtue of carrying
28:21
out a policy like that. Well, you're communist,
28:23
Ted. That'd be right up your alley. You want
28:25
to ban everything? You want to ban football?
28:27
You want to ban anything? You want to ban football?
28:29
Fuck football. I'd be doing everybody a huge...
28:31
Imagine they might turn to books, God forbid.
28:35
Tell you what, Ted is into the nanny state. He
28:37
doesn't want you to have a big gulp either. And
28:40
you know what? And I'm going to quote maybe...
28:42
No, you shouldn't have a big gulp. That's true.
28:44
I'm going to quote maybe... I don't know if she's
28:47
in the chat today, but maybe has talked about
28:50
how we keep... we keep talking about, you know,
28:54
all these different health crises when the number
28:57
one killer in America, you can stay there, Robbie,
29:00
go back. The number one killer in America is
29:03
heart disease by leaps and bounds. Like, just
29:06
huge astronomical numbers is heart disease. And
29:09
if that's the case, then we need to ban red beef,
29:13
red meat. We need to ban beef. Like, so, you
29:17
know, that's right up, that's Ali there. I want
29:22
to answer Robbie's question because I think it's
29:24
important actually and it like the thing is I
29:28
do think it's racist to say that you're concerned
29:32
about If you're white and let's say American
29:36
let's say you're white and you're in the whitest
29:38
of all countries Let's say you're like, I don't
29:40
know you're Danish and you're like, I don't want
29:44
white Danes to become a minority in Denmark Yeah,
29:49
that's racist. Of course it's by in fact, it's
29:51
by definition racist because you are literally
29:54
saying that you have a preference for you the
29:57
people in your of your nationality To have the
30:02
same ethnicity to the fact to the extent that
30:04
race is even real As yourself and that is I mean,
30:09
of course that's racist I don't care if the united
30:13
states becomes a majority black asian latino
30:17
Whatever country I don't care at all. I mean
30:21
now do I want strong border controls? Yes, do
30:24
I want? No, no my concern here is American jobs
30:31
American workers. I don't care who those Americans
30:35
are I mean I want black workers to be protected
30:39
I want in I want people who are already here
30:43
who are therefore American To be protected. I
30:46
don't want anyone else to be protected. So I
30:49
mean, but I don't but like let's just say You
30:52
know, let's just say demographically we have
30:54
closed borders for the sake of argument and let's
30:57
just say that due to Changes due to differences
31:00
in birth rates between uh ethnicities You're
31:03
going to have a minority white nation, which
31:05
is how things are currently projected to go,
31:07
right? Um, we may already be a minority white
31:10
state, uh by like we might be 49 white now So
31:14
fucking what who cares? I don't care. I Mean,
31:17
otherwise you end up with an ethno state like
31:20
israel They're the only one of the main reasons
31:22
that they're such assholes to the palestinians
31:24
is because you know The israeli jews don't fuck
31:28
as much and have as many kids as the pal as the
31:31
arabs And they think oh the jewish state if we
31:34
have a democracy the jewish state will become
31:36
an arab state And so we can't have democracy.
31:40
That's why they're an ethno -state. So yeah,
31:42
it's racist by definition. Well, you're complaining
31:45
two different things here. You're complaining
31:47
race. I'm talking about culture. So if you import,
31:52
so you're supposedly French, right? You're a
31:54
French dual citizen? I am. Okay. So if France
31:57
became a majority, let's just say Moroccan, and
32:02
because the French people like to kill their
32:03
children that they do have, they don't have as
32:05
many as they used to do, If France becomes a
32:09
major, a majority Arab country, is there, is
32:13
there a cultural, is there a cultural component
32:15
with that? Like for example, of course the culture
32:18
of the country will change. So then you have
32:22
no problem, but the France of your ancestors
32:24
dies because of mass immigration, the France
32:27
of the French. So here's the thing, the France
32:29
of my ancestors itself replaced the France of
32:32
their ancestors and so on and so on and so on.
32:37
You replace the government you do not replace
32:39
the culture The culture you're gonna tell me
32:41
the french culture is the same as it was like
32:44
two thousand years ago when it was a roman province
32:46
No, it's not I mean the french that was the gauls
32:49
come on You're smarter than this. I'm talking
32:52
about the the france of the francs charlemagne
32:54
going through Okay, so why do we start the clock
32:57
there? Well, why why do we start the clock there?
32:59
I mean the the francs invaded and replaced the
33:02
gauls, right? so The Gauls ended up being so
33:06
the Gauls are no more. I mean, you know, I mean,
33:09
I'm sure there were people who mourned the departure
33:11
of the Gauls. I'm sure we got to move on, guys.
33:16
But you have my opinion. Everybody's got to pick
33:20
somewhere in their country's timeline. You got
33:23
to start. And I mean, whatever we arbitrarily
33:27
picked 1776. So there it is. So I think that
33:31
China should belong to the Chinese people. France
33:34
should belong to the French people. India should
33:35
belong to the French, to the Indian people who
33:38
don't like to use toilet paper. This is, this
33:40
is okay. Diversity is an awesome thing. It's
33:42
all right. But that doesn't mean that the church
33:44
commits suicide on the altar of feelings, especially
33:48
nationalists. Listen, I have no desire for my
33:50
daughter ever have to go outside wearing a burka.
33:54
Sorry, I don't think she's in any danger and
33:56
because because I believe in this thing called
33:58
freedom of speech if I want to write a if I draw
34:00
a picture of car of of Mohammed I should be able
34:03
to do without getting shot the same way people
34:04
put I agree you should so Laura Loomer's a fake
34:11
a fake Jew. She calls us all the time. He said
34:15
she's not really Jewish. He knows her. Well,
34:18
like he yeah, he does. What does that mean? She's
34:20
not really Jewish. He's not ethnically Jewish
34:22
She just decided one day to claim that she was
34:24
Jewish. She's trans Jewish. Yes, and that she
34:28
just bought a Star of David on Amazon and and
34:31
that one day she was giving a speech to like
34:33
a pack or something and because By the way, I'm
34:37
Jewish because she's a grifter and then she she
34:41
on on her manila folder to go out before the
34:46
speech, she decided to draw what she thought
34:48
was the Star of David, but it was apparently
34:51
a pentagram. So instead of five, five points,
34:54
it was six, right? She's on team devil. I mean,
34:57
six point. Yes. And he's like, Laura, what are
35:00
you doing? And she's like, I'm going to go give
35:03
a speech to a Jewish group. Like I needed, I
35:06
wrote this, I drew the Star of David. And he
35:08
was like, bitch, that's a pentagram. So Wow So
35:17
so I guess she's not that smart either. But anyway,
35:21
she's She's attacking him and she's going after
35:25
individuals and Anyone that speaks ill of her
35:29
or her? I don't know her her dream baby daddy
35:32
Donald Trump. I guess I don't know She's a bizarre
35:36
lady if she's a lady. She's I mean, come on.
35:39
She's a lady. She's she's she's a dangerous lady
35:44
I don't know. We don't know what her true sex
35:47
or gender. She identifies as a she. She identifies
35:51
as a she. I would rather test Brigitte Macron
35:55
than Laura Loomer. And I think they're both dudes.
35:58
I think they're both got smaller chin after their
36:00
knees. Yeah, I'm not sure. Well, yeah, I'm not
36:03
sure. Well, you know, the thing about Macron
36:07
is it's settled. Because, I mean, she threw down.
36:11
She sued Laura Loomer. in court and... Candice
36:16
Owens. Oh, sued Candice Owens and went and had
36:19
her vag verified by a professional vagiologist.
36:24
So... No, I don't think she did. She did, 100%.
36:26
She did? Yeah, and it came out like... Mrs. Macron?
36:30
Yeah, she literally was like so determined to
36:33
say, fuck you, that she got expert testimony
36:36
from a vag expert to say, yep, it's like, it's
36:41
real. It's here. It's it get you know, that's
36:44
the deal get used to it. Fuck off Yeah, but you
36:46
can make those so I would like someone to know
36:49
how old the the vag is It does the old does the
36:53
does the vag you can match? They you can make
36:57
them now So I want to know if she did in fact
37:00
knew that can can they estimate the the light
37:04
has she had this? Uh, it's a lifetime vag It's
37:09
been verified. She had genetic testing. She is
37:13
double X, 100%. She's a real lady, like 100%.
37:18
So since we're on rumble and not on YouTube,
37:22
I can go ahead and say this. So are these the
37:23
same experts who said that the COVID vax was
37:25
safe and effective? No. Are these the same experts?
37:29
These are not vaccination experts. These are
37:33
Vagalogists. Yeah, yeah, whatever. Who study
37:36
vagis. So show me a picture of her and her brother.
37:38
All day long, they're knee deep in badges. Yeah,
37:41
we can't, okay, we can't go down that. Show me
37:43
a picture of her with her brother. That's all
37:45
the weird stuff that Candace Owen, yeah. Wait,
37:48
you want to see a picture of two people in the
37:51
same room? Yes. Her and her brother standing
37:54
there side by side lovingly. I would like to
37:57
see them in the same room. You're saying there's
38:00
no such picture. It does not exist. It does not
38:03
exist, as far as we can tell. And Blake, thank
38:05
you for your donation. Blake, Ted, this is for
38:10
you. Ted, will you whip out the Tiggle Biddy
38:13
mammaries for Man Milking Monday? Let's go. How
38:16
much money? I know it's a $5 ,000 limit. $5.
38:21
We're not going to get there anytime soon. Titty
38:24
titty, five billies. All right, let's go to the
38:30
next story. Okay, hold on, let me pull this up.
38:39
Okay. Of course, now it's like rebooting. Okay,
38:44
here we go. All right. Three Indiana residents
38:47
accused of raiding mausoleums across nine states
38:51
have been arrested after allegedly stealing jewelry
38:55
and family heirlooms left beside cremated remains.
39:00
or cremains as they call it in the business.
39:02
Authorities identified the suspects as 33 -year
39:05
-old Drake Lee Millam, his 32 -year -old girlfriend,
39:09
Portia Bancroft. What a name. And sounds like
39:11
a porn star. It's kind of a good name, though.
39:14
Yeah, kind of. It's a porn star name, though.
39:17
And Bancroft's 52 -year -old mom, Angela Garrett.
39:21
So, yeah, this was a family thing. Some families
39:24
go to national parks. These guys apparently toured
39:27
cemeteries looking for wedding rings. According
39:29
to investigators, the fearsome threesome entered
39:34
mausoleums and broke open glass front niches
39:37
holding urns, photos, and keepsakes. Surveillance
39:41
camera supposedly captured them removing necklaces,
39:45
bracelets, watches, and other valuables before
39:48
sauntering off. Florida authorities have identified
39:51
20 cases involving more than $35 ,000 in stolen
39:55
property. Police think the suspects also went
39:59
to cemeteries in states like Texas, Georgia,
40:02
Virginia, North Carolina, Illinois, Iowa, New
40:05
York and New Jersey. The full number of victims
40:08
remains unknown. The thieves allegedly took deeply
40:11
personal items, including gold wedding bands
40:14
and jewelry. that relatives had placed with deceased
40:16
spouses and parents. The cops haven't accused
40:20
the group of stealing the cremated remains themselves.
40:24
So I guess they didn't care about that. Garrett
40:27
and Millam were arrested in Indiana. Bancroft
40:30
surrendered to Seminole County Jail in Florida.
40:34
All three face charges of disturbing a grave
40:37
or tomb. Damaging or removing a monument and
40:41
grand theft exceeding 20 ,000 bucks. Millerman
40:44
Garrett are expected to be extradited to Florida.
40:47
Bancroft scheduled for arraignment September
40:49
22nd. Trial set for February. Authorities are
40:53
asking their families to inspect their loved
40:55
ones' cemetery niches because other thefts might
40:58
have gone unnoticed. Wow. So you know what they're
41:05
talking about in terms of these mausoleums, right?
41:08
Well, I've never not a neat like a niche like
41:11
the what I I had to look all of this up and watch
41:14
the video Oh, you've never been to one a niche.
41:17
No, it was like glass fronts where you display
41:19
things I've never seen that like all the ones
41:22
I've seen is just like like a Imagine like, you
41:26
know, like bank safe deposit boxes except Like
41:31
stone or whatever at cemeteries like I've never
41:33
seen One that you walk into and it's like lit
41:37
up like a museum and your loved one their urn
41:41
has like Stuff displayed in there like photos
41:44
and like rings like a white I would think but
41:48
I'm from the hood Ted like I'm suspicious of
41:50
everything like I would never ever show Especially
41:53
leaving it with with the cremated remains like
41:57
I would never leave stuff out in the open something
42:01
valuable No, but I'm from the hood. Like what
42:04
people normally, yeah, normally put in there
42:06
are things like photos or like, you know, like
42:10
a cartoonist you might put, I've seen this, you
42:12
put their pen in there or, you know, in one of
42:15
their cartoons. Something sentimental that's
42:17
not necessarily of value. Yeah. So I mean, like
42:23
I was, what? Yeah. So the, yeah. So, I mean,
42:26
it's, it's kind of, I mean, obviously it's gross,
42:30
but it's also kind of brilliant. Right. It's
42:32
like you're stealing from people who You know
42:34
are dead and obviously they can't tell on you.
42:37
They can't they're and they there's and they
42:40
But it's not a lot of money. There's no security
42:42
in these places Um, you know, you just walk in
42:46
anybody can walk in and out. It's there's like
42:48
it's it's public access Um, I mean, of course,
42:52
obviously unless you're wearing a mask Uh, you
42:54
know, you're you're going to you know, I assume
42:56
you drive the arm No, and there's all this shit
43:01
just lying around. I mean, it's basically grave
43:03
robbing, but it's easy because it's just a glass.
43:06
It's just a glass case. Right. You don't have
43:08
to dig up a six foot. Yeah, you know, no, no,
43:12
like 11 o 'clock trips to the graveyard. You
43:15
know, I mean, it's it's I mean, it is, you know,
43:19
it's it's easy peasy. I'm not recommending this
43:22
i'm just saying I can no it is kind of It's kind
43:25
of awesome the shit that people think of I mean
43:27
the problem is you're not going to make a lot
43:28
of money because how much I was going to say
43:30
$35 ,000 worth of stuff like with a gold band
43:33
I mean, what can you how can you you can just
43:35
sell it to a pawn shop, right? That's about it.
43:37
Right, right So like between the three of them
43:40
like let's say it's 35 40 grand worth of stuff
43:43
right over Wow 15 states or whatever it was that
43:47
they hit um 40 grand between the three of you
43:52
over the span of a year. That's not much, dude.
43:55
Like you could make that much like being the
43:58
manager at Taco Bell. Yeah, it's not that impressive.
44:00
For sure. What do we make here? We could do it.
44:04
Good point. Between three people? Yeah. We are
44:07
three people. Get your car. Let's go. I'm serious.
44:09
I mean, that's a TMI windfall right there. That's
44:13
true. That's true, but then but yeah, but now
44:16
they're facing all these years in prison over
44:18
like oh, there's that pennies We will be after
44:21
the after they cancel the election had facing
44:23
years in prison too for having insulted Trump
44:26
multiculturalism comes in what we say is that
44:29
it's part of your it's part of your cultural
44:31
and religious heritage is to go and bring these
44:35
artifacts That have been in tuned with the wealthy
44:39
and we have to offer them up for the gods for
44:41
the next generation Yeah That's actually not
44:45
a bad idea. Listen, if we're going to commit
44:48
national suicide on the altar of multiculturalism,
44:52
we may as well go ahead and play to it. All right.
44:57
Let's move on. This is just a weird -ass story,
45:00
and of course, it's like a Florida story. Yeah.
45:07
Always Florida. Oh, and then we'll go to my home
45:10
state, to the motherland, California. So the
45:13
California Supreme Court is weighing whether
45:15
Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who I think
45:18
is still running for governor, I'm not sure,
45:21
had the authority to seize roughly 650 ,000 ballots
45:24
from the county election office and conduct his
45:27
own investigation into alleged voting irregularities.
45:32
Bianco obtained. search warrants and removed
45:34
approximately a thousand boxes of ballots cast
45:37
during California's November 2025 special election
45:40
on congressional redistricting. The investigation
45:43
began after the Riverside election integrity
45:46
team claimed election records showed nearly 46
45:50
,000 more votes counted than ballots actually
45:54
cast. County registrar Art Tanoko said the group
45:59
misread preliminary intake records according
46:02
to Tanoko the actual Unreconciled difference
46:07
was a hundred and three ballots out of more than
46:10
six hundred fifty seven thousand or That becomes
46:13
point zero one six percent. That's according
46:16
to your favorite Ted the LA Times So, you know,
46:19
it's true, you know, it's good stuff and it's
46:23
been approved by the LAPD The discrepancy, even
46:28
as originally alleged, would not have changed
46:30
the result. Proposition 50 passed Riverside County
46:33
by roughly 80 ,000 votes. Bianco, nevertheless,
46:37
says he was obligated to investigate and acted
46:39
legally because judges approved the warrants.
46:42
He maintains the ballots remain evidence and
46:45
says he would seize them again under the same
46:47
circumstances. California Attorney General Rob
46:50
Bonta ordered Bianco to stop and return those
46:53
materials, arguing state law gives election officials
46:56
sole custody of ballots. The state Supreme Court
47:00
halted the investigation back in April, but Bianco
47:03
continues to hold the ballots. During oral arguments,
47:09
several justices appeared skeptical of his position.
47:13
California election law states that ballots shall,
47:16
quote, in no event be removed from an election
47:19
official custody. Bianco's attorney argues that
47:23
the criminal code and search warrants provide
47:25
separate authority. Justice Kelly Evans summarized
47:29
the conflict rather efficiently. If Kelly with
47:32
an I, by the way, so a girl, right? It's got
47:36
to be a woman. If the law says that's a check.
47:40
Yeah, it's gotta be a check. Right. If the law
47:42
says in no event, how can the sheriff claim this
47:45
is one of those events? Bianco was running for
47:49
governor when he launched the investigation,
47:51
but failed to advance. Oh, that's right. Advanced
47:53
from the June primary. The court has not yet
47:56
ruled its decision could determine whether elected
47:59
sheriffs may independently seize and recount
48:02
ballots outside of California's established election
48:06
challenge process. So I just thought that was
48:09
like interesting as we have the midterms coming
48:12
up because Bianco is super conservative. and
48:18
you would think that this was like an issue about
48:21
mail -in ballots. It's not. It's like an issue
48:24
about all the ballots in the county. He just
48:27
snapped. He just took them all and says, I'm
48:30
conducting an investigation that nobody asked
48:33
for. Yeah. So like, I don't know what the legalities
48:37
are here. I mean, I know there's a lot of very
48:40
suspicious stuff happening in California in the
48:43
way of mail -in ballots. and USPS and there's
48:49
a lot of that. So I don't know what predicated
48:52
his suspicion to go seek a warrant that a crime
48:57
had been committed, but dude is digging his heels
49:01
in and he is not returning the ballots. So I
49:05
think this, at least in the state of California
49:07
could be precedent setting. And I don't know,
49:11
maybe I would hope in some way, shape or form
49:15
someday, lead to, oh, I don't know, election
49:19
reform in California and how we do things. So,
49:23
I don't know. It's just a weird story that this
49:27
sheriff decided to, I don't know, do an FBI and
49:30
decide I'm just going to investigate. Like, what
49:34
prompts you to do that? I mean, it's also, look,
49:38
it's interesting because, look, we know there's
49:40
going to be all sorts of skull -duggery. uh going
49:44
into the midterm elections, I mean Trump knows
49:46
he's going to lose the house of representatives
49:48
and maybe even the senate probably not but maybe
49:50
and so he's deeply The republicans are already
49:55
setting the stage to discredit the results of
49:58
the election They're like saying oh just because
50:00
we didn't get the save america voter id act passed.
50:04
Um, there's all sorts of illegals who are going
50:06
to be voting dead people be voting. There's election
50:10
fraud all over the place. Mail -in ballots are
50:13
getting fucked with. So this is basically like,
50:17
look, none of this would be happening, of course,
50:20
if the Republican Party was favored to have a
50:24
huge win this fall. It would be like, oh, these
50:26
elections are being run A -OK, right? But the
50:30
fact is that they know they're going to lose.
50:33
That's why Jared Met with the keem the other
50:36
day. Um They they know they're they know and
50:40
so they're trying to like think okay. Well I
50:43
don't know if they've here's the thing I don't
50:45
know if which of the following routes the republicans
50:48
have decided to go Are they have they already
50:50
decided we're going to cancel the selection either
50:53
after the fact or before it even happens Or are
50:57
they going to say well let it happen We'll see
51:00
how it goes and what we'll do is we'll discredit
51:02
it and kind of hope to create so much confusion
51:05
that people won't really believe the results
51:08
and then we'll say we need to investigate and
51:10
pending the investigation the results that the
51:14
congressman won't be seated by the way, that's
51:16
legal there is actually a it is it is okay Under
51:21
our system stupidly, but it shouldn't be but
51:24
it is to basically say We're not seeding the
51:29
new Democratic House members. The Republicans
51:32
stay in office until we figure out really whether
51:35
the elections were valid or not. And it might
51:38
take us a very long time, like two years, to
51:41
figure that out. So you can just drag the process
51:43
out? Yeah, it's legal to do that. It shouldn't
51:47
be, but it is. And you don't do it because it's
51:50
not a Democratic norm to do that, small d Democratic.
51:55
I mean, I think clearly, you know, the republicans
51:59
know they're not going to be happy with the results
52:00
and so they're looking to And so this guy he's
52:04
part This is like an this is a canary in the
52:07
coal mine kind of case where it's like I would
52:10
say so the courts are Looking, you know, you're
52:12
you're getting an early indication here of sort
52:15
of the way things might go down But there's no
52:18
doubt. I mean You've got to have some trepidation
52:22
about what's going to go down in two months I
52:25
mean But, you know, the Supreme Court hasn't
52:28
even weighed in yet on whether President Trump
52:31
can effectively nationalize federal election.
52:33
I mean, nationalize, federalize state elections
52:36
by banning mail in ballots and having them compared
52:41
to some list that the federal government is maintaining
52:44
at DHS. Yeah. So they're dragging their feet.
52:48
Yeah, they're trying to run out the clock. I
52:50
mean, the secretaries of state. That that administer
52:53
our elections state by state are They need to
52:58
start mailing out those mail in printing the
53:00
ballots and mailing them out like soon like in
53:03
a week or two Yeah, and so so like because they
53:06
most in most places They need to be received
53:09
by the voters by early october If not sooner
53:14
and they're supposed to sort of sit you're supposed
53:16
to have them available at least 30 days before
53:18
the election Um, virginia has a 45 day window
53:22
for early voting. Okay, so that's that's basically
53:25
into now That's now yeah, because they've got
53:28
to print them. They've got to put you got to
53:29
print You got to like revise print make sure
53:32
you got to lay it out. You got to print it Yeah,
53:34
right because I was a magazine editor. So I know
53:36
like you need to have you can't yeah, okay today's
53:39
Print date, no. Printing doesn't just happen
53:41
like that. Yeah, you got to like look at it.
53:43
And this isn't a daily newspaper where you own
53:45
your own press and it's set up to do it every
53:49
day, right? So it's basically like now for Virginia.
53:53
But I think you're right that this is a canary
53:55
in the coal mine and that other states are now
53:59
watching what's happening now in California because
54:02
that, depending on what the California Supreme
54:05
Court says or does, can then be referenced as
54:10
precedent for other conservative states that
54:15
want to move forward with changing, I guess,
54:19
election integrity rules, I guess. Go ahead,
54:22
Robby. Is there a push in France to limit or
54:25
if not even eliminate mail -in voting for people
54:27
who actually live in France, just let it continue
54:30
to be mail -in for people who live overseas?
54:32
I don't know, but I don't know why you'd have
54:34
to have mail -in ballots because French people
54:36
vote online. What? Oui, je vote. I vote on the
54:43
internet. Pourquoi? Well, I mean, think about
54:47
it. I mean, Americans literally will do a, they
54:52
will close on their home virtually online. You
54:56
literally will be like, I'll buy a million dollar
54:58
house and I will send you $800 ,000 by wire transfer
55:03
from my phone. And so why the fuck, and frankly,
55:07
That's a lot more consequential than who you
55:09
then which corporate democrat is going to be
55:12
which corporate republic So but the point is
55:15
yeah. Yeah. So the way it works is um, french
55:18
people they vote on their laptops or on their
55:20
on their phones They receive the day of the election.
55:23
They receive a one -time code for two for two
55:26
for two factor verification That's it and you
55:30
vote online. It's fucking great. I love it You
55:33
don't have to go see the old ladies down at the
55:37
firehouse you just do it at home I am a big fan
55:40
of the French tax system. I just get a postcard.
55:43
So good. Does this look good? Yes sign done 99
55:47
% of the time it does look good Because they
55:50
know how much you own you owe Of course and here
55:54
you're playing these games. Like what does the
55:55
government know and when did they know it? We're
55:59
so cute. We play cute in the US All right, this
56:06
is you, Ted. Oh, wow. Because you're a music,
56:09
a huge music lover. That is, that is true. You're
56:11
the biggest. I saved the music story for you.
56:14
That's right. I'm a huge music fan. All right.
56:18
Heavy metal may do more than annoy your neighbors
56:21
and permanently damage your concert t -shirts.
56:24
German study suggests several days of live metal
56:27
music could increase a listener's tolerance for
56:30
physical pain. Researchers from the Max Planck
56:33
Institute tested 122 metal heads at the Wacken
56:37
Open Air Festival in 2023. Participants submerged
56:40
their non -dominant hand and forearm in ice cold
56:44
water for as long as they could stand while scientists
56:47
monitored their heart activity. Sixty were tested
56:50
before the concerts began. Sixty -two more were
56:53
tested after spending three or four days surrounded
56:56
by roaring guitars, crowded campsites, and enough
56:59
black clothing to frighten a tide executive.
57:02
The festival veterans kept their arms in the
57:06
freezing water. longer. Curiously, they didn't
57:09
report feeling less pain. They just endured it
57:11
longer. Researchers think the experience made
57:14
participants more accepting of unpleasant sensations
57:17
and better able to control their response. So
57:20
it still hurt, but basically the ice bath seemed
57:25
more manageable to the metalheads. The strongest
57:28
results appeared after researchers excluded people
57:32
who had consumed large amounts of alcohol because
57:35
booze can alter pain tolerance. The study also
57:40
accounted for participants with histories of
57:42
chronic pain. Researchers say that loud, angry
57:45
music could eventually have therapeutic value
57:47
for some chronic pain patients. Traditional music
57:50
therapy often relies on calming sounds, like...
57:56
The but people dealing with anger may benefit
57:59
more from music that expresses it there are limits
58:02
the study did not randomly assign people to musical
58:05
genres and it can't prove that metal itself caused
58:09
the effect the communal festival experience excitement
58:12
or other factors may have contributed researchers
58:14
want to try it again at other festivals involving
58:17
different kinds of music so Manila I gotta say
58:22
I personally am a huge punk rock fan. I love
58:25
loud and I play my music loud. Um, and and I
58:29
feel like, you know It it does help me It calms
58:34
me. It expresses my inner Your range well agita.
58:39
Yeah, and it's like it's exciting You know, it
58:42
gets my heart pumping and i'm like I get it out
58:45
I get it out a little bit passively that way.
58:47
So now that said my orthodontist When I was a
58:53
kid, he used to he was a huge fan of punk and
58:58
metal And so I'd go into the office and there'd
59:01
be like Flipper and Dead Kennedys and like what
59:05
the clash Sex Pistols Ramones all watching. Yeah,
59:10
I was like I remember like turning to him and
59:14
Saying, you know, I love all those bands. I was
59:16
like I was like this is my favorite music It's
59:19
so good, but I have to admit I kind of miss the
59:22
music, you know, because it's like when they
59:26
tighten your braces, it really hurts. And sometimes
59:28
you get like a loose you get like a loose wire,
59:31
like pokes into your gums and stuff. So I don't
59:34
know if that's still true, but it used to be.
59:37
And so, yeah. According to this article, then
59:40
the orthodontist playing that type of like. Well,
59:44
I don't know. Rock is angry. No, it can't be.
59:48
I don't think it can be. But I don't think heavy
59:51
metal is angry either, necessarily. Well, no,
59:54
I don't like the article. Metallica is not angry.
59:59
I love Metallica. Like it's so melodic and they're
1:00:01
fucking great. Twisted Sister is angry. No. Are
1:00:05
they metal though? Yeah, kind of. Yeah. No. When
1:00:09
I think of like metal. Iron Maiden. Horrible.
1:00:12
I think of like death metal. You're thinking
1:00:14
death metal like the troops play. look in their
1:00:17
tanks. Like, I don't like that shit. Like, yeah,
1:00:20
like, aw, that is like the eat your grandma music.
1:00:22
But apparently this is what the Germans like.
1:00:25
Well, the number of beats per second has a huge
1:00:27
impact on how you respond to music. So basically,
1:00:30
if your heart rate is, let's say, 70 beats per
1:00:32
second, and you literally then that if you music
1:00:36
that has faster rate than that will be will basically
1:00:39
be like drinking coffee. And if you drink some
1:00:42
and if you listen to something slower, that's
1:00:44
like drinking wine, right? It's like a so yeah,
1:00:46
it's it's sort of So yeah, we already know that
1:00:50
and death metal probably has like 200 beats for
1:00:52
sacco, right? So it's like totally It's spazzy.
1:00:55
I mean, we use that like at like the military
1:01:02
black sites weren't when we grab like the isis
1:01:04
guys or whatever. That's right. Um, that's it's
1:01:07
that shit because it's Horrible, I find it God
1:01:10
awful. And the German ones? God awful. Can you
1:01:13
imagine a German death metal band with the language
1:01:17
being as harsh as it is just in speaking? Yeah,
1:01:21
Germany, the language where someone expresses
1:01:24
their love to you and you think they're trying
1:01:26
to kill you. Yes, I'm like, oh God, okay. But
1:01:31
for me, I mean, I love punk rock, I love, you
1:01:35
know that. And I love all kinds of music. But
1:01:38
for me, I expose my kids to Metallica, but and
1:01:44
I probably I probably should not expose my older
1:01:47
my son to like, like hip like real hip hop, like
1:01:51
90s hip hop, because there's a lot of bad words
1:01:55
and n words in there. Yes, there are that. Yeah,
1:02:01
but n word that ends in an a not an R. So that's
1:02:05
there's a difference. And also, but I'm mindful
1:02:09
of that now. So with the Baby Girl, also one
1:02:14
of my favorite bands is Sublime. So I exposed
1:02:18
her to Sublime a couple of weekends ago and she
1:02:20
seemed, she was giggling and laughing. And so,
1:02:23
but you know, it's kind of like, Sublime is kind
1:02:25
of like, it's not quite alt rock, it's not quite
1:02:28
ska, it's not quite punk, right? It's a little
1:02:31
mixture of all. True. Like it's its own thing.
1:02:34
It's its own genre, right? Sure. That is, that
1:02:37
is like, that is my kind of music. Like, cause
1:02:40
I'm from there, you know, like that's it's like
1:02:43
kind of chill and kind of, you know, got a little
1:02:45
bit of an upbeat. Um, I guess the beats per minute.
1:02:49
Um, and it's kind of fun. It's kind of, it's
1:02:51
got a scar base to it. And I, and I love that.
1:02:54
And my, my little girl seemed to love it. She
1:02:57
was kicking her legs and she was excited and
1:03:00
We were saying bad words in Spanish in, you know,
1:03:04
sublime. But to me, it depends on what I'm going
1:03:12
to do. I can either chill out to sublime or I
1:03:14
can get amped up and be like, yeah, let's go.
1:03:18
So, I don't know, music really is therapeutic.
1:03:22
And I think it's really fascinating that they're
1:03:24
finally looking at it as like a pain tolerance
1:03:26
thing, because I will tell you, In high school,
1:03:29
this may not come as any surprise to you, Ted.
1:03:32
I was a cheerleader. I was a cheerleader that
1:03:37
was smoking under the bleachers. Yeah, you were
1:03:39
one of those. I was. Admittedly, I was. And then
1:03:43
I realized, like, fuck this shit. I don't like
1:03:45
cheerleading. I want to watch the fucking game.
1:03:47
I want to watch the football game. So I gave
1:03:49
that up and became a stat girl. And at one point
1:03:52
in my life, I thought in high school, I was like,
1:03:54
I fucking love football. I want to become like
1:03:57
the first female defensive coordinator in the
1:03:59
NFL. This is fucking rad. And I was watching
1:04:02
the crunch. I was I was in the locker room with
1:04:05
the boys and everything because the boys want
1:04:07
to know their stats. And but anyway, most of
1:04:10
these boys where I grew up, they listened to
1:04:12
rap and hip hop. Right. But in the football locker
1:04:16
room, they. I don't know if it was the coach
1:04:19
or whoever but somebody decided they would play
1:04:23
like hard like almost death metal and the boys
1:04:27
the boys were going ape shit it would make it
1:04:30
would amp them up to go crash into the other
1:04:33
boys into the other team right like because you're
1:04:35
amped up and like like ready to go smash skulls
1:04:41
um go heads as it were um so i think I'm surprised
1:04:45
that no one had done this study before, but leave
1:04:47
it to the Germans, man, because they're the German
1:04:50
death metal. I like a lot of music, but I got
1:04:54
to say, that is the worst. I agree with you.
1:04:59
It's funny. I mean, I don't I'm the kind of person
1:05:02
who like finds music really grating for the most
1:05:05
part I mean there's music that I'm not that into
1:05:08
and I don't care and I don't care about but it's
1:05:11
very unusual like the kind of music that would
1:05:13
like make me leave a room or if I walked into
1:05:17
a restaurant and I'm like, yeah, can we eat somewhere
1:05:20
else? Yeah, there's not many things like that
1:05:23
and Death metal is one of them. And specifically
1:05:30
German death metal. But the Russian have it too.
1:05:33
That's true. Have you heard the Russian death
1:05:35
metal bands? Yeah, it's it's it's fucking god
1:05:37
-awful. It's really bad. Yeah, it's god -awful.
1:05:40
Remember when we were trying to find the music
1:05:42
for our old show and we had to, it was a Russian
1:05:46
music database and it was like, oh my god, right?
1:05:50
Because they gave, that's what they gave us to
1:05:52
work with and Ted and I were like It was horrible.
1:05:56
And I love Russia. I love Russian people. I like
1:05:59
Russian culture, but man, that music, holy shit.
1:06:02
I was like, dude, when we get like fucking Tchaikovsky
1:06:05
or something, I would rather take that than fucking.
1:06:08
You were something. Seriously, you're giving
1:06:10
us a Russian death metal. Like that's what you're
1:06:12
suggesting. So then there was like, yeah, although
1:06:14
Tchaikovsky would not have worked for our show,
1:06:16
but no, but it was better than Russian death
1:06:19
metal. Anything is better than that. Silence
1:06:21
is better than that. And then there was a yeah.
1:06:25
And then the other music that does that for me
1:06:28
is like the rave music, like house music, like
1:06:31
early, early house music, not so much now, but
1:06:35
back in the day, like, like from the night, like
1:06:38
in the eighties, nineties house music. It was
1:06:41
so. It was now. No, I like that stuff. You like
1:06:44
Robin? I like Robin. It's kind of irritating,
1:06:48
but like sort of the boom, boom, boom, boom,
1:06:52
boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
1:06:54
But you know, the big heavy bass. I hate heavy
1:06:58
bass. I grew up with troubling music. I want
1:07:01
my I don't want speakers that are heavy on the
1:07:04
bass. I don't want like headphones that are heavy
1:07:06
on bass. I want everything up on the high on
1:07:09
the high end. Yeah, I'm from the hood. Every
1:07:11
every car had big base boxes in the car. I hated
1:07:14
that. And they would low riders would roll by
1:07:17
and like vibrating around. That's the only kind
1:07:21
of music I can stand. Yeah. So my son, he likes
1:07:26
Sabaton and Man of War. I don't think. I know
1:07:35
what those are. So Sabaton, they're pretty cool.
1:07:38
So they're a rock group and they make music based
1:07:41
off of historical events and battles. So they
1:07:46
actually use their music to tell historical stories.
1:07:49
Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Oh, very much so. Like
1:07:54
Battle of Shireyama, the last end of the samurai.
1:07:57
They've got that in there. They've got the thing
1:07:59
about the Swiss guards in Rome being wiped out
1:08:02
by the Germans. And when the Lutherans decided
1:08:05
to sack Rome and the Pope ran and hid like a
1:08:07
coward in Hadrian's mausoleum, speaking of mausoleums
1:08:11
earlier, had to pay the Germans, leave them alone.
1:08:15
But no, it's just, it's a lot there. So, Ted,
1:08:20
you're a music connoisseur. I'm surprised you
1:08:22
don't know about Sabaton. No, I mean, you know,
1:08:25
it's impossible to know about all music. Ray
1:08:28
says they're power metal bands. See, I don't
1:08:31
know these sub - classes of metal I kind of I
1:08:35
generally I generally kind of stop more if you're
1:08:38
in the orbit of Metallica because Metallica is
1:08:41
amazing right but there there's also like the
1:08:44
it's melodic Metallica isn't like that kind of
1:08:47
like metal like no it's just Metallica has like
1:08:51
there's there's music to their name is kind of
1:08:54
like a misnomer sort of I think so too I think
1:08:57
so too anyway we'll leave that there I think
1:08:58
that's really cool I think But I hope they do
1:09:02
study more music because if it's if there's a
1:09:04
way you can manage pain or any other condition
1:09:08
Yourself right like without medication without
1:09:13
big pharma. I'm all for it. So Apparently listen
1:09:17
to fucking German death metal. Yeah. Yep. What
1:09:21
are we doing tomorrow? German death metal. I
1:09:24
don't know. No, we're not there yet. Oh my god
1:09:28
What's tomorrow? Polar bear. We have to do the
1:09:30
polar bear. Polar bear? Well, I don't know. Read
1:09:34
the feed. Read the feed. I haven't looked. All
1:09:37
right. Well, I'll do that. OK, guys, that's going
1:09:39
to do it for us. What about Donna Mills? Old
1:09:45
Lady Vag? We might as well talk about... I love
1:09:48
Old Lady Vag. Brigitte Macron. Brigitte Macron.
1:09:53
The homeless custodian? That's good. I don't
1:09:57
know, we'll talk about it. All right. That brings
1:09:59
up serious societal issues. Robbie, did you have
1:10:03
a last comment? Are we ready? No, I just think
1:10:07
really what we should do is just look at, let's
1:10:10
poll the audience. So y 'all hear about polar
1:10:12
bears, you're waking, you're getting woken up
1:10:14
by ships, old lady badge on OnlyFans or something
1:10:18
supernatural, maybe demonic. Homeless custodian.
1:10:27
They can comment they can comment we got a roll
1:10:30
so there's no time yeah, that's it leave leave
1:10:34

1:10:43
question. We never did we never did the lactating
1:10:46
bulls? Well, we'll talk about that out there.
1:10:50
I don't know what that one is. I don't know that
1:10:52
one. It's essentially the stuff on the show chat
1:10:55
last week. Yeah. Yeah. But basically, there's
1:10:58
now bulls be like bulls be bulls be milked. Oh,
1:11:02
that's oh, I saw I saw. OK, I know what you're
1:11:05
talking about. OK. Extra implants in steers.
1:11:07
What could possibly go wrong to a transient cattle
1:11:10
because kids isn't enough. And I'm going to dispel
1:11:16
one last thing since we're on cattle. People
1:11:20
misunderstand what, you know, the longhorns in
1:11:22
Texas, they all think those are males. That is
1:11:25
not true. Longhorns are a breed of cow. They
1:11:30
are a certain breed. They come in boys and girls.
1:11:33
So wait, do the girls have shorter horns than
1:11:35
the boys? Just like with people, some people
1:11:40
have dark hair, some people have, you know, light
1:11:42
hair. So you're saying longhorns are just be
1:11:44
horny cows? It's a breed of type of cow. That's
1:11:48
all um So people don't so because so yeah, if
1:11:52
you meet one in a bar, you won't like you won't
1:11:54
miss you won't know Yeah, you know, you won't
1:11:57
know misgender them. Don't misgender your your
1:11:59
your longhorn Longhorn is a type of cattle. It's
1:12:03
not necessarily it's like only males look like
1:12:07
this. That's not true They all so there you go.
1:12:10
So you can be misgendered if you're a longhorn
1:12:12
All right. That does it. Adios amigos. Happy
1:12:15
Monday. Q &A show coming up. Bye.
