• 0:11
  Sunny South Florida, bringing you the latest in politics
• 0:15
  current events and pop culture. This is he's the Whitfield
• 0:20
  Report with Sam Whitfield. And hello there folks.
• 0:31
  Welcome to the MonDay edition of the podcast.
• 0:36
  I am a host sandwich filled and I hope you're having a great
• 0:40
  Monday wherever you're all listening to this during the
• 0:45
  past present. Future, our And yeah I hope you
• 0:51
  all had a good weekend and we don't have too much to cover
• 0:56
  here. Today kind of was a quiet
• 0:59
  weekend and you know we still have a whole, you know slew of
• 1:08
  news to cover this week. That will probably happen, you
• 1:14
  know, soon here, but I didn't write folks.
• 1:20
  There are a few things that I do want to cover on today's show.
• 1:26
  Mainly I want to start off by covering James O'Keefe's, exit
• 1:33
  from Project Veritas if you will, or rather just give my
• 1:39
  thoughts on that. Real quick.
• 1:45
  Because during the whole, you know, during that whole entire
• 1:52
  incident when James O'Keefe, apparently got fired as CEO of
• 1:57
  project. Veritas I was that was, you
• 2:03
  know, during the time when my grandfather passed away, In
• 2:08
  early February and you know, I heard what happened, you know
• 2:15
  with James O'Keefe and you know he was basically fired as CEO
• 2:23
  from you know. Project.
• 2:27
  Veritas sure that he was rather asked to step down and so people
• 2:32
  ask me too. weigh in and give my opinion - since, you know, many
• 2:41
  longtime listeners of the show going back to the days of the
• 2:45
  week old analysis, you know, know that back in the early days
• 2:50
  of my career as a podcaster and you know, back when I used to
• 2:57
  host the Whitfield analysis on BlogTalkRadio, that was during
• 3:04
  the whole tea party are back in 2010, 2011, and that was during
• 3:11
  the time of, you know, project Veritas James O'Keefe had just
• 3:16
  started PV and that was during the infamous a corner, you know?
• 3:28
  Scandal that took down a corn in made, you know, James O'Keefe.
• 3:36
  You know, an Infamous figure overnight and You know, in a
• 3:44
  enemy of the far left overnight as well.
• 3:51
  So, you know, from that perspective, ladies and
• 3:53
  gentlemen, let me just say that as far as proactive as far as
• 3:58
  product of veritas goes, I have. for the most part always been
• 4:07
  behind project Veritas and more specifically I have stood behind
• 4:14
  James O'Keefe. I think that he does a lot of
• 4:17
  good work for the can for the conservative movement.
• 4:21
  Not even the conservative movement but just citizen
• 4:25
  journalism in general. He is I would argue a modern Bob
• 4:34
  Woodward, he's actually going out there and asking the tough
• 4:39
  questions. That very few people want to
• 4:46
  ask. You know, and a lot of all of
• 4:53
  the tapes, you know, of project Veritas a lot of it is all
• 4:56
  independently done, you know, it's not a publicity stunt, the
• 5:05
  media likes to try and spin it as such but know, those hidden
• 5:08
  cameras are all ordinary citizens.
• 5:12
  You know, going out there and You know, doing undercover
• 5:16
  journalism and scooping role stories.
• 5:23
  So, you know, from that perspective product to Veritas
• 5:26
  has always done good work. And in fact, I was actually at
• 5:34
  one point, considering joining project, Veritas I went on their
• 5:38
  website and I applied. But I got an email back
• 5:43
  basically saying that because I was already a, you know, because
• 5:49
  I was already somewhat of a public figure, you know, even
• 5:54
  with my spawn presents that people might recognize me for
• 5:57
  being a, you know, a conservative podcast or not one.
• 6:01
  Alchemy. So, you know, there is that but
• 6:06
  you know, at least they were fair and you know, saying that
• 6:09
  they didn't think I would be a good fit for them in that
• 6:12
  perspective. But, you know, I I've never
• 6:17
  interviewed James himself on the podcast.
• 6:20
  He is a guest. I would love to get in the
• 6:22
  future. Someday, but I do know some
• 6:28
  project Veritas Journal us, rather, former journalist with
• 6:34
  project, Veritas one of them is my friend Dan sandini who used
• 6:40
  to do it, you know, YouTube channel called daylight
• 6:46
  disinfectant, which is which was documenting.
• 6:50
  The Occupy Wall Street stuff out in Portland, Oregon.
• 6:54
  And Dan has since moved to Florida, where I am actually and
• 6:58
  he and I connect every once in a while and, you know, be I would
• 7:03
  be curious to see what he thinks of all this stuff.
• 7:06
  You know project Veritas stuff with James, basically being
• 7:11
  forced to leave, you know, I would like to hear his
• 7:16
  perspective on that, you know. And I also know Leo Stratton who
• 7:22
  unfortunately Certainly Leo is no longer with us, he died in a
• 7:29
  car accident a few years ago and you know tragically is no longer
• 7:35
  with us. Sadly but he was a great citizen
• 7:41
  June journalists as well. And then I have a few other you
• 7:49
  know, people along the way that have been associated with
• 7:51
  project, Veritas that you know, I know them but they have wanted
• 7:58
  to go on camera yet or anything so you know, I haven't really
• 8:04
  reached out to them regarding their thoughts on you know, the
• 8:08
  James O'Keefe firing from Project veritas But you know,
• 8:18
  here's what I can say based on what I know James seems to be a
• 8:26
  you know an honest and upstanding guy.
• 8:33
  He seems to be very, you know, ethical in his reporting.
• 8:42
  Maybe he might have to do some You know, unethical things to
• 8:46
  get the truth. Sometimes, you might have to
• 8:48
  bend the rules to get the scoop but the best journalists usually
• 8:54
  do in actuality. And you know, I do think it's,
• 9:05
  you know, it's a bit weird and You know, what'll bit suspicious
• 9:13
  the way that he was. I guess dismissed, I guess is
• 9:19
  board wanted him to You know, I guess some board members of
• 9:25
  project Veritas accused him of like trying to embezzle money or
• 9:30
  something, and I don't know if I buy that story.
• 9:33
  Floyd there are a lot of there are a particulars within, you
• 9:37
  know, his dismissal that I'm really not sure what happened
• 9:41
  about. I've heard very conflicting,
• 9:44
  things on the reasons for his dismissal.
• 9:49
  And you know, I know that's what people want my opinion on.
• 9:53
  But the the truth is folks I honestly don't know.
• 10:00
  You know, the circumstances of his dismissal like everyone
• 10:05
  else, I can only theorize that this point.
• 10:09
  But that is also why I wanted to have people on who have been
• 10:15
  associated with project Veritas and I will be working on getting
• 10:20
  them on the Wednesday show here soon. but, you know, let me say
• 10:26
  this in regards to You know, James O'Keefe. whatever he does
• 10:33
  in the future whether that, you know, stay with whether that be,
• 10:39
  you know, staying with project Veritas or whether that You know
• 10:43
  be starting his out. You know his next venture I will
• 10:50
  be there with bells on to at least see what he does because I
• 10:59
  do think he is an interesting figure.
• 11:01
  And honestly you know, I've said this before that you know,
• 11:07
  Russian them Bob was the reason why I started podcasting and
• 11:13
  Broadcasting on radio, but it was really Andrew Breitbart.
• 11:18
  And to an extension James O'Keefe himself.
• 11:24
  Who really showed me through their example, just how
• 11:27
  powerful, you know, this New Media.
• 11:32
  Although it's not so new anymore.
• 11:34
  We've had social media, you know, for at least 15 years now.
• 11:39
  Probably but, you know, back in the day, back when I started
• 11:46
  podcasting or not this whole social media landscape,
• 11:49
  Woodstock New and conservatives did not know how to navigate the
• 11:57
  space at all, and a lot of them still don't but the effect ones
• 12:04
  now are getting censored, you know, the bejesus out of yours.
• 12:08
  Truly for example, you know no longer has a YouTube as I've
• 12:13
  discussed at length, you know, over the past couple episodes,
• 12:19
  but You know, James O'Keefe and Andrew Breitbart really back in,
• 12:27
  you know, 2010-2011, really, when I started podcasting Rush
• 12:34
  was the one who laid the ground out for how to be a successful,
• 12:39
  you know, talk show host and one out but it was Andrew Breitbart
• 12:43
  and James O'Keefe that really showed myself and many other
• 12:49
  young conservatives at the time. How to disseminate the
• 12:54
  information, how to be effective in this new, you know, 21st
• 13:00
  century landscape of the internet?
• 13:06
  And, you know, breitbart's been gone since 2012.
• 13:11
  So, what has changed? Obviously since then, but James
• 13:16
  is still here. And one thing I would definitely
• 13:18
  like to ask him, you know, out of curiosity is I would like to
• 13:23
  his opinion on how the landscape of, you know, median citizen
• 13:29
  draws. Enough has changed since he
• 13:32
  started because it has Sure, sure.
• 13:36
  Changed. since I started my, you know podcasting and you know, me
• 13:44
  to a career Almost 15 years ago, coming March G's will be
• 13:54
  celebrating the you know, will be still, but I'll be
• 13:57
  celebrating 15 years of podcasting on March 25th of this
• 14:03
  year. That is wow, that is
• 14:08
  unbelievable to think on but you know, I don't know if James
• 14:18
  O'Keefe did anything wrong, I don't know if you know, he got
• 14:24
  framed or set up. I know that people on Twitter or
• 14:27
  kind of theorizing the oh, project Veritas was subverted by
• 14:32
  the left and that's why James O'Keefe was outed.
• 14:36
  It's the Deep State going after O'Keefe.
• 14:41
  Now the Biden's back in office, I don't know that that's the
• 14:47
  case, I would find it. Highly Let me, let me put it
• 14:54
  this way. On the one hand, I don't think
• 14:57
  that would, I don't think that would happen.
• 14:59
  I think project Veritas probably has a good method for keeping
• 15:04
  you know narrator welds out of there.
• 15:10
  You know, employment lines much, much less out of there, you
• 15:15
  know, Board Room meetings. So, you know, I think they
• 15:22
  probably have precautions against such a thing.
• 15:28
  But then I also think that You know, on the other hand,
• 15:33
  anything is possible these days. Right?
• 15:35
  Folks. So you just never know what
• 15:37
  regards to that type of behavior.
• 15:43
  You know more than like what happened was?
• 15:45
  It was just a business decision, gone South and changes were made
• 15:54
  and now will keep us going to move on and do his next project
• 15:59
  but that's why I want to get people on from Project.
• 16:03
  Veritas to discuss that and see what they have to say for
• 16:12
  themselves. So, I will be working on that in
• 16:15
  the next few weeks. And you know, one final thing on
• 16:21
  the James of Keith subject I did watch his Farewell Address of
• 16:28
  CEO when he, you know, gave his farewell address and obviously
• 16:36
  there were, you know, some sad things but he seemed very
• 16:42
  genuine and very honest about how, you know, he's done some
• 16:47
  great work but you also made some mistakes and people ask me
• 16:54
  if I might be willing to you know, do a breakdown of the
• 16:59
  video and if people really want that ladies and gentlemen like
• 17:05
  they got on like a Friday or some extra day I might do that
• 17:09
  if you guys really want it but by and large I don't think
• 17:14
  there's any reason to I'm trying to keep these Monday podcasts
• 17:18
  under an hour long if possible and that Farewell Address of his
• 17:26
  is like 45 minutes long and total and for me to, you know,
• 17:31
  PODS of ruminants and break it down, would just add a lot more
• 17:37
  length to it. But, you know, if that is
• 17:41
  something that you guys want, maybe we'll do that.
• 17:43
  Once one of the project Veritas people are here on the program,
• 17:49
  we can maybe, you know, do that. If that's something that I
• 17:52
  didn't sort of like, so, you know, reach out to me, let me
• 17:55
  know in the comments on Odyssey. Or Rumble, if that's something
• 18:01
  you want and, you know, or feel standing on the podcast.
• 18:06
  Yeah, you know. So, I mean, send me a note on my
• 18:08
  socials and let me know if that's something you would want.
• 18:12
  But, you know, in essence, I just wish James O'Keefe the best
• 18:17
  of luck in whatever Venture he pursues.
• 18:21
  And, you know, those are my thoughts on that, or for, right
• 18:26
  now, All right, so with that out of the way folks, I do kind of
• 18:33
  want to shift over to something, you know, a bit more
• 18:37
  lighthearted and a bit more entertaining and fun.
• 18:42
  So, I've not watched Saturday Night Live and probably since I
• 18:50
  was a freshman in high school, if I'm being honest, You know,
• 18:59
  both of my, you know, favorite SNL personalities.
• 19:04
  You know, Dennis Miller and nor McDonald there's had already.
• 19:09
  Come and gone from SNL Roy. Before I was even really around,
• 19:16
  right? I'm kind of like a Nostalgia guy
• 19:20
  for that sort of thing as most people know.
• 19:24
  So, you know, as how when I was growing up, I had kind of gone
• 19:28
  downhill, but they have had good bits over the years and
• 19:33
  thankfully because of the internet, there is a way to, you
• 19:38
  know, view some of that stuff that's pretty.
• 19:41
  You know, good. So I guess this past weekend,
• 19:47
  Woody Harrelson who I had, always thought was a, you know,
• 19:51
  Hollywood a lofty by default. Apparently he dropped a few
• 19:57
  bombs shells about vaccines and big Pharma.
• 20:05
  I've seen a little bit in Corpus of this but I have not seen the
• 20:08
  whole monologue. So what you'll be seeing is Is
• 20:11
  my genuine reaction to this. And I am genuinely curious as to
• 20:16
  what the whole hoopla is that. So here is what he Harrelson's,
• 20:24
  SNL Monologue from, you know, the other night, this past
• 20:29
  weekend. And yeah, let's go ahead and
• 20:35
  roll the tape here. Thank you very, very much.
• 21:06
  Hello. You beautiful people.
• 21:12
  And Daniel ugly. People to know, I just this
• 21:17
  country seems so divided, beautiful, ugly, black white,
• 21:21
  blue red. I love everybody, maybe because
• 21:26
  I'm a redneck hippie. You know, the red and me thinks
• 21:30
  you should be allowed to own guns.
• 21:33
  The blue and methinks squirt guns.
• 21:37
  So I'm red and blue, which makes purple.
• 21:42
  I'm perfect. So, this is my fifth time doing
• 21:46
  escena. And you know what that means?
• 22:01
  A jacket. Okay, the last time I did SNL's
• 22:06
  around Thanksgiving, 2019 three years ago and you would not
• 22:11
  believe what happened after this Chuck.
• 22:14
  The next day was a Sunday, as it always is the day after I do
• 22:18
  Saturday Night Live, it's like a pattern I noticed and it was, I
• 22:23
  went walking in the greatest part of this.
• 22:26
  His you know, he does have a little bit of Normie Donald.
• 22:30
  And I'm a you know I guess he's from that generation of comics.
• 22:35
  And for those of you are young Zoomers out there who may be
• 22:41
  watching Woody Harrelson, got his shot on a show called cheers
• 22:50
  which was the prequel to a series called Fraser which I
• 22:55
  have referenced often on this show.
• 22:59
  Oh. So you know go watch both of
• 23:01
  those, you're welcome. It's City Central Park land
• 23:08
  against the tree and started to read the craziest script.
• 23:13
  Okay. Full disclosure, I smoked a
• 23:16
  joint. First, the reason I like her
• 23:19
  more than alcohol is because it makes me feel good.
• 23:23
  No hangover. And I never wake up covered in
• 23:26
  blood. But regardless I have decided to
• 23:30
  quit smoking pot all together. And I'm sticking with it till
• 23:35
  after the show. Yeah.
• 23:39
  Last week in Austin, I was talking with my friend, Nick at,
• 23:42
  we have a lot in common, he wrote True Detective, and I was
• 23:46
  in True Detective, I'm vegan and all the animals he eats or vegan
• 23:53
  anyway. I was complaining about how I
• 23:55
  start smoking around noon and get progressively Dumber, as As
• 23:59
  the day unfolds, forget, basic words, simple objects, ET
• 24:05
  cetera--. And I was hoping that the
• 24:08
  wifey-poo might say, oh no, that's not true.
• 24:11
  But instead she says, at least you're aware of it and I say
• 24:17
  well, that doesn't feel like much consolation.
• 24:20
  And she says, think of all the dumb people who don't know
• 24:23
  they're dumb your head of them. Thanks hon.
• 24:28
  But on top of the herb, wee, bit of a, are we a bit of a drinker?
• 24:34
  I don't know why I, when I receive any way, but in a
• 24:38
  personal triumph last year, I had, that's that's racist
• 24:44
  against Irish people. What are you?
• 24:48
  Bad, you know so far. Nothing really controversially.
• 24:56
  I'm not sure what all the fuss is about.
• 24:59
  But you know what? Let's, let's see here.
• 25:04
  I saw some highlights but yeah, let's, let's keep going here,
• 25:08
  shall we? Seven months with no alcohol.
• 25:18
  Glorious months anyway. Well we talking about.
• 25:23
  Oh yeah, it's challenging you about that script so I blazed
• 25:28
  the fatty which, you know I got in Allah at my dispensary, the
• 25:33
  woods. I mean obviously I didn't
• 25:37
  transport the herb from California.
• 25:40
  It's a New York is that's highly illegal.
• 25:44
  My manager Jeremy, did he newald it from l.a.?
• 25:51
  Yeah he speaking of Jeremy he's here tonight.
• 26:05
  A newly single ladies very handsome.
• 26:10
  Yeah I know We would prefer that I talk about our movie
• 26:14
  Champions. It's coming out in two weeks
• 26:21
  Masterpiece, but I'm not here to sell Champions.
• 26:24
  It sells itself, projections, projections, have it making more
• 26:29
  than Avatar but whatever, I'm no salesman.
• 26:31
  You know, where was that? Yeah, okay, no.
• 26:35
  So three years ago, Central Park, Sunday morning.
• 26:38
  The Lord's Day. Trying to resist the temptation
• 26:42
  to Puff too early in the day. Of course, I succumb.
• 26:48
  Like a lot of people have a devil on one shoulder and on the
• 26:51
  other shoulder I have a larger more frightening devil and
• 26:56
  there's a battle going on in here, you know, I'm just, I'm
• 27:00
  just saying that I am many different things.
• 27:02
  Anarchists Marxist, Marxist. Ethical hedonist
• 27:07
  non-discriminatory empath Is some a logical deconstructionist
• 27:13
  Texan, but back to the tree, in Central Park, in that script, I
• 27:19
  don't put yourselves in my place.
• 27:22
  Lay the curve of your neck, against the roots of the tree.
• 27:25
  What kind of tree was it? I mean, what kind of trees they
• 27:28
  have in Central Park. Okay, I was a palm tree so lay
• 27:34
  your head on the palm fire up. Hooter from Jeremy?
• 27:40
  And start reading. Okay, so the movie goes like
• 27:43
  this, the biggest drug cartels in the world get together and
• 27:49
  buy up all the media and all the politicians and force.
• 27:52
  All the people in the world, stayed locked in their homes and
• 27:56
  people can only come out. If they take the cartels drugs
• 28:00
  and keep taking them over and over, I threw the script away.
• 28:05
  I mean who's gonna believe that crazy idea being forced to dude.
• 28:10
  Drugs. I do that voluntarily all day
• 28:14
  anyway. It's about that time.
• 28:17
  Come on no, no Jack. Holy shit.
• 28:23
  That was Okay, that was a little bit, brought not gonna lie
• 28:33
  there. What?
• 28:33
  Let me go back. It's very subtle what he what he
• 28:38
  does. you know, I threw the script to okay.
• 28:52
  Let's see here. Brightening devil and there's a
• 28:58
  battle going on in here, you know?
• 29:00
  I'm just, I'm just saying that I am many different things.
• 29:04
  Anarchists Mark, six Marxist. Ethical hedonist
• 29:08
  non-discriminatory empath epistemological
• 29:12
  deconstructionist Texan, but back to the tree, in Central
• 29:19
  Park, in that script, I don't put yourselves in my place, lay
• 29:23
  the curve of your neck again. It's the roots of the tree.
• 29:27
  What kind of tree was it? I mean, what kind of trees they
• 29:29
  have in Central Park. Okay, I was a palm tree so lay
• 29:35
  your head on the palm fire up. Hooter from Jeremy and start
• 29:42
  reading, okay? So the movie goes like this, the
• 29:46
  biggest truck All right, this is going to be good.
• 29:51
  Start reading. Okay, so the movie goes like
• 29:54
  this, the biggest drug cartels in the world get together and
• 29:59
  buy up all the media and all the politicians and force.
• 30:03
  All the people in the world, stayed locked in their homes and
• 30:06
  people can only come out. If they take the cartels drugs
• 30:10
  and keep taking them over and over, I threw the script away.
• 30:16
  I mean, who is going to believe that crazy idea being forced to
• 30:20
  dude. Drugs, I can do that voluntarily
• 30:23
  all day long. Wow.
• 30:28
  Okay. So This is a six minute lead up.
• 30:37
  Basically to a 30-second red pill here.
• 30:44
  Look what it is in General on it.
• 30:46
  I mean and the other funny thing is is he's building up along the
• 30:50
  way saying hey I'm a bit, you know red.
• 30:54
  I'm a bit blue to I'm purple. I've got you know, some
• 30:57
  socialism and me. I've got some, you know.
• 31:01
  Right wing and made to I'm a bit, you know, so he is, he's
• 31:06
  setting it up and he's slipping it in there.
• 31:10
  Well done, sister. I yeah, this has been that
• 31:17
  30-second to made people lose their mind, but yeah.
• 31:26
  So well. Well done, mr.
• 31:28
  Harrelson. Well done sir.
• 31:32
  Anyway, it's about that time. Still not Jack.
• 31:40
  Okay, well, we got a great show for you tonight.
• 31:43
  Jack White and his. Okay.
• 31:46
  Yeah, so that's pretty much the end of the monologue there.
• 31:50
  But yeah, I mean, you know, he basically light out what big
• 31:58
  farmers plans have been you know, in the in the scenario for
• 32:04
  the, you know, in the form of like an imaginary movie script
• 32:10
  and that is the thing. Ladies and gentlemen, as we are
• 32:13
  living in a time now where truth is Stranger Than Fiction.
• 32:22
  Ten years ago, if you had told me 10 years ago.
• 32:28
  That. That in 2020, we would all we
• 32:35
  would have all been locked in our houses and, you know, forced
• 32:38
  to wear masks out in public and what not.
• 32:43
  I probably would have said. Wow, that's a really good idea
• 32:46
  for a for science fiction movie. But now, look at what we are
• 32:53
  folks, and I think that's his point overall.
• 32:59
  You know, very, very subtle throughout throw line there.
• 33:04
  So, you know, I'm wondering, you know, I know what he showed is
• 33:10
  manager, you know, in his shot there, but I'm starting to
• 33:16
  wonder if, you know, if he has the same manager or what's going
• 33:20
  to happen to him. But anyway, I like I said, Well
• 33:27
  Done mr. Harold's and well done.
• 33:35
  So yeah, that was just kind of my little fun reaction to that.
• 33:44
  And really, I don't have too much else to cover on the show
• 33:50
  today as far as topics go. Couple quick housekeeping
• 33:57
  things. I do want to mention a lot of
• 34:01
  people have been asking if I'm going to start a another YouTube
• 34:07
  channel for the podcast and you know, I think I've made this
• 34:14
  answer pretty clear light is in genuine.
• 34:19
  But at this point, no. I have no intention of starting
• 34:27
  a starting a new YouTube channel.
• 34:33
  For the show. At least to livestream it.
• 34:40
  The reason being primarily is because, you know, I already
• 34:47
  have a YouTube account that I use to watch videos just
• 34:54
  casually and, you know, tune into other people's streams and
• 35:00
  I do not want to get that account banned, you know, by
• 35:06
  posting TWR content there, and then, You know, starting another
• 35:17
  channel for the windshields of War technology that would be
• 35:20
  band of aging and and although I don't really care about
• 35:23
  YouTube's rules in regards to that.
• 35:26
  Or although I normally one day, The thing of it is building up a
• 35:33
  YouTube, you know, audience. Again, I mean it took me roughly
• 35:41
  10 years to build up the Whitfield report Channel or no
• 35:50
  more like eight years because I started in 2014, but still, you
• 35:57
  know it took me. It took me a decade to get where
• 36:01
  I am now, almost, and I was 202 away.
• 36:08
  I was only 200 Subs way from getting wet, from getting 1000
• 36:16
  subs and they whacked the channel, you know, before I
• 36:21
  could make that happen. And on top of everything else
• 36:26
  they you know, they would constantly, I got to channel
• 36:31
  strikes. And not just that but they would
• 36:36
  constantly, they would constantly hide my streams, you
• 36:41
  know, in the algorithm the algorithm would not show my
• 36:45
  content in people's feeds. People would get unsubbed from
• 36:51
  my channel constantly or have to, you know, re-subscribe
• 36:55
  notifications would never go out on time, you know, for the
• 37:01
  channel. So, so, You know in essence you
• 37:09
  know you to be even if they don't ban me pursue.
• 37:13
  Even if they even if they didn't ban me that they you know they
• 37:17
  made life difficult for the unit for the podcast and then on the
• 37:22
  day I come back from Hiatus that's when they strike my
• 37:27
  channel to down. Ultimately.
• 37:30
  And ladies and you don't at this point and I'm recording this
• 37:34
  episode on Monday February 27th. 2023 YouTube has still not give
• 37:42
  me a reason. As to why my channel was
• 37:49
  terminated, I appealed to get the channel back. and, They have
• 38:00
  not gotten back to me and I'd like to think that's because
• 38:04
  their Mandalore viewing it, but honestly that's from me because
• 38:08
  they just have reviewed it yet and you know what?
• 38:12
  I'm pretty sure they're not going to bring the channel back
• 38:17
  so Look, I know that. I know that YouTube is the
• 38:22
  biggest platform out there as far as videos and streaming.
• 38:26
  Go. I know that it's you know,
• 38:28
  convenient I know that you know, it's it's it's just so easy to
• 38:34
  click on a live stream. Watch you know that's why people
• 38:37
  enjoy it just because we're used to it basically.
• 38:41
  Ladies and gentlemen, were used to YouTube in our lives and I
• 38:46
  get that, okay. I get that.
• 38:51
  But when YouTube makes it nearly impossible for a small
• 38:57
  independent content, creator like me to grow, right?
• 39:05
  To grow my channel. When really, I'm, you know, I'm
• 39:08
  not, Putting any content out there that that's really edgier
• 39:13
  anything and if they've still been, you know, pretty since or
• 39:17
  he's me I would be here over the years.
• 39:21
  So they flock with my, you know, content, they, you know, they
• 39:28
  deranked me majorly on YouTube and then they ultimately shut my
• 39:33
  channel down. In the midst of a broadcast.
• 39:39
  When I was your age eyes, my grandfather, And they never gave
• 39:48
  me any reason as to why that stream was shut down or why my
• 39:52
  channel was terminated. Let me ask you ladies and
• 39:58
  gentlemen, why would I start another YouTube channel?
• 40:05
  We have all of our content over on Odyssey.
• 40:11
  We have well, most of it over on our on honestly.
• 40:16
  We have all of our content on Rumble I have nearly every
• 40:23
  episode of the show. Distributed as a podcast which
• 40:32
  you can either watch Androids into on Spotify and you can
• 40:38
  definitely listen to every episode of the show on pretty
• 40:43
  much any of the audio platforms. So, folks, I mean, I like I
• 40:49
  said, I know YouTube is convenient, but we have other
• 40:53
  alternatives. And quite frankly based on what
• 40:58
  I'm hearing, you know, even have even if I were to get monetized,
• 41:03
  right? Let's say words you get my
• 41:06
  channel back and somehow I were able to make it to 1000.
• 41:11
  Cool. You know, YouTube is taking over
• 41:19
  40% or 35% of super chats last time I checked memberships.
• 41:30
  On YouTube there they did, they're taking a percentage of
• 41:33
  that. So unless you have a so unless
• 41:37
  you have like a major Channel on YouTube, It's really, it's
• 41:43
  getting really difficult to gain traction over there, ladies and
• 41:47
  gentlemen, Odyssey. Is only difficult to grow
• 41:54
  because not too many people know about it.
• 41:59
  And I suspect that's going to change. because, with YouTube's
• 42:05
  new Co coming and You know, wall cover that more when it becomes
• 42:12
  official and we know a bit more about the guy.
• 42:14
  But from what I'm hearing, he's not much better than Susan.
• 42:18
  Wojcicki. And so I think you're going to
• 42:22
  have even more of a massive influx of, you know, creators to
• 42:29
  platforms like Odyssey and Rumble.
• 42:34
  Maybe not Rumble. So much for normies because
• 42:37
  Rumble is kind of seen more as like a conservative platform but
• 42:41
  definitely Odyssey. And that is the key, right?
• 42:45
  We need to get more, you know, non-political you know, non
• 42:53
  culture War. you know content creators on platforms like a lot
• 43:00
  to see and it is starting to happen but we you know we
• 43:03
  definitely need more you know, content creators over on
• 43:09
  Odyssey, this is not me, you know, I'm not sponsored by
• 43:15
  Odyssey either. So you know, this is me just
• 43:19
  independently saying that You know, the more independent
• 43:24
  concentrators go to Odyssey, the better.
• 43:28
  And we're already set up over there to take memberships.
• 43:32
  Ladies and gentlemen, we already accept super chats.
• 43:37
  Honesty. Yes, it has its, you know,
• 43:41
  glitches at times but so does YouTube. it works out more often
• 43:50
  than not better, you know, then YouTube even at sometimes, so in
• 43:58
  essence, ladies and gentlemen, I am trying to say here Is that?
• 44:04
  Yes, I will continue to try and appeal you know, to YouTube and
• 44:12
  see what I can do to get the old Channel back and for all of you
• 44:15
  who are reaching on my behalf, I really do appreciate it.
• 44:20
  However, that is at the bottom list of my goals.
• 44:26
  And my priorities list right now.
• 44:29
  My main goal for right now is to grow The Odyssey Channel and the
• 44:34
  rumble Channel. Although, to be honest like I do
• 44:38
  like Odysseys, you know, platform a little bit better.
• 44:42
  So that's my goal. So that is my goal to basically
• 44:45
  try and migrate all my subscribers over to Odyssey as
• 44:51
  best as we can. and again, I mean, I know money is tight, but
• 44:59
  the more people who can, you know, subscribe and do the
• 45:04
  memberships thing per month, the better Right.
• 45:10
  On a good night. Let's say if I were to get all
• 45:13
  my 800 or so subscribers to basically move to Odyssey,
• 45:19
  right? And then let's say on Wednesday
• 45:22
  night, 60 of you, which is usually what, you know, on a
• 45:28
  good night that's usually what the streams get is around 60.
• 45:33
  If even 10 of you. Were subscribed at the five
• 45:39
  dollar, you know, I'm on the level that would Roy start
• 45:43
  bringing in income for the channel.
• 45:45
  I would be able to upgrade my equipment more, you know, gets
• 45:50
  better, you know, stop owning mics and you know, an audio
• 45:55
  interface and all of that. And we could start to maybe
• 46:01
  throw some members, only events, you know, maybe do like a
• 46:05
  monthly call-in show, maybe even do weekly you know, just for the
• 46:10
  members. You know, these are the types of
• 46:13
  things that I want to be able to give you guys, you know, as host
• 46:19
  of the Whitfield report. And these are the things that
• 46:22
  right now, only Odyssey, you know, and to a certain extent,
• 46:28
  sub stack along me to do, you know, YouTube's not doing it
• 46:34
  YouTube. You know, you have to, you have
• 46:37
  to crack a thousand just to be able to be monitored.
• 46:41
  Sized for pennies on the dollar. So it you know, it's not worth
• 46:47
  it at this point ladies and gentlemen.
• 46:49
  And you know, I hope you understand that but I really
• 46:53
  wanted to just take a moment to really address that for you guys
• 46:57
  as to why I'm not pursuing YouTube ultimately because I
• 47:02
  think in the long run it'll be a waste of time for this show and
• 47:07
  yeah we might be slow to grow right now.
• 47:11
  But as more people go over to audit scenes to check out these
• 47:16
  new platforms, I think we'll be pretty golden in the future.
• 47:22
  And you know what? That in mind folks I think
• 47:25
  that'll about do it for the, you know, for tonight's show.
• 47:32
  Joining us on Wednesday. We will have Craig D mansfeld
• 47:38
  who is a chemical engineer and he will be joining us on
• 47:45
  Wednesday night at 9 p.m. to discuss these train derailments
• 47:54
  that I've been going on over the country of all the chemicals.
• 47:58
  And, you know, the The, the situation in Ohio and all that,
• 48:05
  I'll be asking some of the conspiracy related questions
• 48:09
  and, you know, hopefully he can either, you know, confirm or
• 48:15
  disprove some and as I said, Mr, mansfeld is an actual chemical
• 48:20
  engineer. So he knows what he's talking
• 48:23
  about. I don't know his background too
• 48:26
  much so I'm sure we'll spend the first hour or so of Wednesday
• 48:29
  night show. Getting into into that butt.
• 48:38
  It should be an interesting conversation, all ought to talk
• 48:41
  with them about and I'm sure that either shmuly or Max will
• 48:44
  be joining us for that show. So that'll be Wednesday night
• 48:49
  streaming live on AA, Odyssey, and rumbles.
• 48:53
  I can get it to work and as always the podcast, we will be
• 48:57
  available, you know, next day on Spotify and all the other
• 49:01
  podcast platforms. So, you know, be looking forward
• 49:06
  to that. And ladies and gentlemen, I want
• 49:09
