• 0:20
  with Sam Whitfield. Howdy.
• 0:31
  Howdy, everyone. Another rotation around the sun.
• 0:41
  That's right. You're alive.
• 0:44
  You made it. You won.
• 0:47
  Good job. We.
• 0:49
  Hey, how about that? How about the Iowa caucus, huh?
• 0:55
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 0:57
  Unlike. Unlike us.
• 0:58
  Who made it? Desantis's career didn't.
• 1:04
  Ned and I also learned that they could count either.
• 1:10
  If you're having polling problems, DeSantis feels bad for
• 1:13
  you, son. They got 99 counties and he
• 1:16
  ain't got a lead in one. Yeah, I've been saving.
• 1:25
  Anyway, happy birthday to me. Yes.
• 1:29
  Wow. Yes.
• 1:30
  Happy birthday, Sam. Then 70.
• 1:35
  Now I'm I I know I give more these shit for being the old
• 1:43
  man, but like, I'm not quite that old.
• 1:46
  But I'm old enough to remember when you sought to use Internet
• 1:51
  cables. So that's something.
• 1:54
  Back in my day, I still use cables.
• 1:57
  What are you talking about? If you're a gamer, you're not
• 2:00
  using Wi-Fi. I mean, let's be real.
• 2:03
  That's true. Absolutely.
• 2:10
  My, my sisters who are who are significantly younger than I am,
• 2:17
  like their actual children that they called me right before the
• 2:21
  show and 2:00 and 11:00 and seven-year old.
• 2:24
  The fact I'm 29, that makes me ancient.
• 2:28
  So, yes, if you're ancient, what are Max and I?
• 2:35
  Oh, God, probably. Well, I would say that you were.
• 2:42
  I would say that you guys are dust.
• 2:44
  Except for the fact that my father, our father, the the
• 2:50
  father of license. I'm sorry.
• 2:53
  Well, Jesus, Jesus is only 33, so But no, I mean my my
• 3:06
  biological dad is 62. My step dad is 70.
• 3:12
  He doesn't look look it. And my mom is she's ageless.
• 3:18
  So I believe my parents are 60 now.
• 3:23
  Damn. What was that?
• 3:26
  Yeah, 663. Yeah.
• 3:28
  Sixty. Yeah.
• 3:30
  Mom is 60 and stepfather is 65 or 66.
• 3:36
  You got to remember, Sam, I'm. I'm the oldest of my half
• 3:40
  siblings, and also I am the product of an unwed teenage
• 3:44
  mother. So.
• 3:46
  Oh yeah, I yeah, I think you've told me that before.
• 3:52
  When you say that you're a teenage drip bag, Max, I was
• 3:55
  definitely a teenage dirtbag. Although I thought the song was
• 3:58
  pretty gay, 'cause I was into heavier music, you know?
• 4:03
  And it was. Yeah.
• 4:04
  But I had to get the joke out. Yeah, you did.
• 4:06
  You did, did you? To paraphrase my favorite band,
• 4:10
  did you Did you grow up in a teenage wasteland?
• 4:15
  No. No, I I was too edgy for that.
• 4:19
  To paraphrase one of my favorite artists, I was a devil without a
• 4:23
  cause. Yeah, so.
• 4:29
  And you ain't never met a motherfucker quite like me.
• 4:34
  And only God knows I'm going to Kid Rock until you shut me up.
• 4:37
  Sam, What's it? I actually, I unironically
• 4:43
  listen to Kid Rock. So, like, yeah, I'm.
• 4:47
  I'm down for that. But man, it's it's been a great
• 4:53
  birthday week, I have to say. You know Monday we had we had
• 4:58
  Steve Stratton on who unlike unlike secret agent man is like
• 5:05
  an actual, like I well, I said, I said he's an American hero and
• 5:11
  I stand by that anybody disagrees with me.
• 5:15
  You know, you can fight me I guess.
• 5:18
  No disagreement here. Yeah, 'cause, 'cause we respect
• 5:23
  people who have served other their country here.
• 5:26
  You know, I I get so sick and tired of a lot of the vet hate
• 5:30
  that I see from people. But it gets real easy to get
• 5:34
  tired out by people like secret Agent man, right, who are just
• 5:37
  so full of shit And everybody knows it, but everybody's like
• 5:40
  that. That's the thing with him, is
• 5:41
  everybody was just kind of afraid to call him on it because
• 5:45
  it it, it just doesn't seem worth it.
• 5:47
  But for me, it's worth it, 'cause I'm an asshole.
• 5:50
  Yeah, but no, Steve, yeah, that was a great interview and a lot
• 5:57
  of interesting topics. It seems like people are only
• 5:59
  interested in one topic that you talked about, though.
• 6:04
  So yeah, Which is now the head fucking drug warrior,
• 6:07
  apparently. I was unaware of this.
• 6:10
  I was. I was unaware of this too.
• 6:15
  Essentially all I said is, yeah, like, I agree hired ladies and
• 6:23
  gentlemen, Sam. Sam is like the drug warrior and
• 6:27
  I'm screwed. Well, I mean, you and I both
• 6:31
  agree though that like, the cartels need to need to go.
• 6:35
  I mean, I don't. Yeah, I I mean I I think that's
• 6:39
  why like primary reasons that I've advocated for legalizing
• 6:43
  pot specifically is because it over it it, it has an oversized
• 6:49
  impact on the cartel's income, right.
• 6:53
  And so if we took off the table Mexican weed that would dent
• 6:59
  them that would be like 30% of most of the cartel's income.
• 7:03
  But you know, spoiler Max, what's what's funny about that
• 7:07
  is you actually, the people who are flipping out, Steve actually
• 7:15
  actually must have turned off the podcast before he said that
• 7:19
  taking away the cartel's weed revenue would cripple them,
• 7:25
  which would mean, you know, legalize, legalize.
• 7:30
  And we were just talking about this off air.
• 7:33
  The problem is the new cartel that's taking over that in the
• 7:39
  states that legalize it is the government and their management
• 7:44
  of it is, let's just say it runs the gamut depending on what
• 7:48
  state you're in. So you and I were just talking
• 7:51
  about this and I had not had it put as concrete as this before.
• 7:57
  So you said and and and correct me if I'm wrong that an eighth
• 8:03
  of marijuana in Colorado legally at a shop, you know your average
• 8:08
  price you you cited would probably be around $80.60 to
• 8:16
  $80.00 from what I've heard from Varys.
• 8:19
  So for for 3.5g now and here in New York it's 80 to 180 to 100
• 8:25
  for then that's an eighth right? Not an ounce or correct.
• 8:30
  Yeah. So, yeah.
• 8:31
  So here in Massachusetts, it's after tax $13.
• 8:39
  I I don't. So is the tax in Colorado like
• 8:45
  like cigarettes? Cigarette tax is like 800%.
• 8:48
  Is it like that? Because that's insane to me.
• 8:51
  And it's no wonder. It's no wonder Colorado's having
• 8:53
  a problem with the black market, right?
• 8:56
  Yeah. Well, for what?
• 8:59
  They've been out competing that for fucking 70 years.
• 9:02
  Yeah. Well, dime bag's called the dime
• 9:05
  bag. It's 'cause it costs 10 bucks.
• 9:07
  Yeah. Well, so Steve lives in the
• 9:12
  area. He actually lives in the area
• 9:14
  where I grew up around there. And what he was telling me was,
• 9:20
  and I knew this, but so when when wheat was first proposed in
• 9:25
  Colorado, the big thing is all the tax revenue would go towards
• 9:31
  education and fixing Denver Public Schools and and of course
• 9:36
  then it just goes into the general fund of the state and
• 9:39
  they use it for whatever they want, right.
• 9:42
  That's true here. Yeah.
• 9:44
  I mean, and a well, a lot of it has gone right back into the
• 9:48
  weed industry too. Instead of and Paulus who I'm
• 9:55
  sorry folks, but he is not a moderate DEM.
• 9:58
  He is just like Gavin Newsom, you know?
• 10:03
  And yeah, that that's, I mean, I haven't lived in Colorado for
• 10:07
  like a decade at this point. But like that's what my friends
• 10:11
  and family tell me is that he's pretty much like Gavin Newsom.
• 10:16
  I mean, what I'm saying is Colorado could like drop the
• 10:22
  price of weed if they want, but they're not going to because
• 10:25
  they enjoy all of the tax revenue from it and that's why
• 10:30
  it's so expensive. So, yeah, yeah, I so like the
• 10:41
  part of part of what makes weed unique from other drugs, OK is
• 10:45
  that it is so easy to produce in large amounts.
• 10:50
  And that's why it's always been, you know, on the cheaper side,
• 10:53
  like I said, the idea of a dime bag or a nickel bag, even, like
• 10:58
  people my age don't really know. But like, if you go, if you talk
• 11:01
  to like boomers and shit who, you know, boomer hippies, a
• 11:04
  nickel bag was a common occurrence.
• 11:06
  That's a $5 bag. Do you know what a nickel bag in
• 11:10
  like, he's in 70s and 80s would have been an eighth like?
• 11:17
  And that's the black market. So if they produce it for that,
• 11:20
  you know, because they're not paying all these stuff, like
• 11:23
  because The thing is, is the weed industries get subsidized
• 11:27
  by the state too. That's kind of what you're
• 11:29
  saying. It goes back in and it just ends
• 11:32
  up being this cluster fuck over here.
• 11:34
  I mean, the tax on pot I've mentioned this before for for
• 11:38
  Massachusetts is the same as the sales tax.
• 11:41
  So basically you pay sales tax twice, OK.
• 11:45
  And then the local jurisdiction can put a tax on it as well.
• 11:49
  So my city has like AI think it's like a 3% tax that's
• 11:56
  through the city. So it's like 7% sales tax, 7%
• 12:01
  pot tax, 3% local POC tax. So in total, yeah, it's
• 12:06
  something like 17%, which I would consider very high, but
• 12:10
  the only way Colorado if it if it really is $80.00 an eighth,
• 12:15
  then that means they're doing some something like a fucking
• 12:18
  800% tax, which is insane. Just like cigarettes, right?
• 12:25
  And the reason they take cigarettes that highly is to is
• 12:28
  to try and socially engineer people to stop smoking.
• 12:32
  You would think that the new industry that they've just built
• 12:36
  up, they wouldn't want to drive people away from it.
• 12:38
  But that's insane to me. I've.
• 12:41
  I've not. I knew it was more expensive
• 12:43
  than it is here, but good Lord, I said $13.
• 12:50
  I will. I will confess that that is not
• 12:52
  the average price through the area.
• 12:55
  That's what my local shop charges.
• 12:57
  They have a sale every day and each each day it'll be a
• 13:00
  different kind of pot and it's always an eighth for $13.
• 13:05
  And they even the fun thing about a lot of the pot places
• 13:09
  here is they price it so that after tax it comes out to an
• 13:13
  even amount, right. So when I say $13 when I walk in
• 13:18
  there, I hand them exactly $13 and no change.
• 13:22
  And that's what it costs. Now if I take that sale part out
• 13:27
  of it, if I go to any shop in my area or in this state, the
• 13:32
  average price for an eighth is going to be just around $20,
• 13:36
  which is that's on point to what the black market charges.
• 13:40
  Actually in a lot of cases that $13 is cheaper than what the
• 13:44
  black market can offer. Guess what, we don't have much
• 13:47
  of A black market anymore. Let's go figure, I'd be good
• 13:49
  with 20. Yeah, 20's that's what you would
• 13:53
  expect, right. That means so, so 80 between 60
• 14:00
  and 80 average. You know, we'll average it at
• 14:02
  70. At 3.5g, which is what an eighth
• 14:05
  of an ounce is. It's, It's $10 a gram late or
• 14:12
  or. No, no, no, it's $20 a gram,
• 14:15
  Basically $20 a gram. Yeah, that's what I understand.
• 14:23
  That's cocaine prices. That's cocaine prices.
• 14:29
  That's that's not pot prices at all.
• 14:32
  It's and it's no wonder that the black market, or technically
• 14:35
  it's a Gray market, right, because it's not illegal to
• 14:37
  possess whatever whatever you want to call it.
• 14:40
  The Gray slash black market in Colorado is crushing the legal
• 14:44
  shops here. It's the other way around.
• 14:48
  And like the it's so much more expensive that way that you
• 14:53
  can't even get to the point where you're looking at the
• 14:55
  benefits. And one of the benefits I talk
• 14:57
  about here, I didn't used to buy weed for like 10 years.
• 15:01
  I never bought weed, right, 'cause I don't want to deal with
• 15:03
  criminals, right? No.
• 15:06
  And and that's the other thing is like, Steve was not actually
• 15:10
  bashing like, you know, weed weed smokers, like inadvertently
• 15:17
  he was bashing the the cartels and whatnot.
• 15:20
  And and for and for a very good reason because I mean, his
• 15:24
  mother was killed by the cartels while on vacation.
• 15:31
  So I mean. And that's.
• 15:33
  Yeah. Looking horrible, right.
• 15:36
  And and but but in the in the cartels are killing thousands of
• 15:39
  Americans every day just through fentanyl, right.
• 15:43
  This is like, yeah, yeah, it is a problem.
• 15:47
  And when when he said, you know, he said that he would basically
• 15:52
  ramp up the drug war, he meant literal war on the cartels.
• 15:56
  That's what he said. I don't know.
• 15:59
  Yeah, there's kind of got triggered.
• 16:02
  I don't know. I listened to it and and, yeah,
• 16:06
  and and granted, I mean, don't misunderstand, a lot of the
• 16:10
  listeners overall loved, you know, a lot of the inner, a lot
• 16:14
  of the listeners did listen to the whole thing.
• 16:19
  Yeah, I don't really seem positive feedback.
• 16:21
  The what you were saying is new to me.
• 16:23
  That's why I wanted to kind of hash it out.
• 16:26
  No, I mean, right before we went on air, did I not just say,
• 16:30
  well, I'm probably going to surprise some people then
• 16:31
  because I'm going to defend him because he was right.
• 16:35
  Yeah. I mean, absolutely right.
• 16:37
  Yeah, he he is right. I mean that also just goes to
• 16:42
  show though that like and I you know we all do this to a some
• 16:46
  extent I guess but you know people who you know people do
• 16:51
  like to cherry pick and I guess in this case the people who
• 16:56
  don't necessarily like this show or maybe don't like him for
• 17:00
  whatever reason chose to Cher pick this you know one thing so
• 17:10
  but I I could you know it might be a little bit like our our
• 17:14
  fault my fault maybe in particular is that I've been so
• 17:19
  so anti drug war right. But what he's talking about
• 17:23
  isn't what I mean. He's talking about a war on
• 17:27
  cartels, smuggling drugs into the country.
• 17:29
  I my problem with the drug war is the targeting.
• 17:33
  And yeah, this is one of those things that a lot of fucking
• 17:37
  conservatives will get mad at me about, but it's fucking true.
• 17:39
  The targeting of black communities with fucking
• 17:41
  policing drugs specifically to target the black community.
• 17:45
  I I we can do better than that, OK?
• 17:49
  The reason that drugs are so random in these inner city black
• 17:52
  communities is because the government wants it that way,
• 17:55
  and that's fucked. The drug war should be at the
• 17:58
  border. Well, and and what we're doing
• 18:02
  for the fucking addicts who are a fucking victim of this cartel
• 18:06
  drug war is offering, you know, rehab and you know, I'm sorry,
• 18:13
  but putting them in jail for indefinite periods of time, all
• 18:16
  it has done is broken that community and the poor white
• 18:19
  community is, well, right now you have fathers in jail for
• 18:23
  what? For having a fucking joint on
• 18:25
  them. Now the child grows up without a
• 18:27
  dad. Fuck that shit.
• 18:31
  And and you know, like I, honestly, I side very heavily
• 18:36
  with libertarians on this particular issue, obviously.
• 18:38
  No, no. Yeah.
• 18:39
  And as do I I want to point out, as you said, though, like our
• 18:45
  whole entire conversation that Steve and I had was related to
• 18:49
  the pretty much the border and hit, you know, how we need to
• 18:52
  take the drug war to the border, which by the way, who else, Who
• 18:58
  else has said that we need to? If you have a problem with that,
• 19:01
  you must have a problem with Donald Trump, right?
• 19:06
  Yeah, Yeah. Not only is that something he
• 19:10
  said, he actually did it as president.
• 19:13
  He was actually going after them.
• 19:15
  He was having bank accounts closed and and all kinds of
• 19:20
  things at the border. We do need to stop him from
• 19:24
  smuggling ungodly amounts of fentanyl in it.
• 19:28
  El El Chapo who Steve actually went after when he was in the
• 19:33
  when he was in the Green Berets. El El Chapo actually I believe
• 19:38
  put out a hit on Trump right in in 2017 he declared or whatever
• 19:48
  you want to fucking call it. He said that they should kill
• 19:50
  Trump. Yeah.
• 19:51
  Yeah. And that's because he was going
• 19:54
  after them and and they they were really, actually scared of
• 19:58
  it. Because that's the like the
• 20:00
  Federals in Mexico can't do much, but Trump was helping
• 20:04
  empower them. Yeah, yeah, guys go down there
• 20:08
  and train them and shit. The problem too is half the
• 20:11
  Federals are corrupt. They're on the cartel's payroll.
• 20:15
  Yeah, it it's, it's amazing. Probably more like all, yeah.
• 20:21
  It's it's amazing how many people took watched that show
• 20:25
  narcos and took like the wrong thing away from that.
• 20:32
  So I've not, I've not seen that one.
• 20:35
  But that's me with everything, isn't it?
• 20:37
  I've not seen no, well, Facebook fucking everything, that shows
• 20:40
  pretty good. Actually it it is.
• 20:42
  But like if you're one of these, if you're one of these zoomer
• 20:46
  types is like, oh oh fuck, what's what's the Colombian
• 20:57
  guys? I'm blanking.
• 21:00
  Damn it. This is.
• 21:01
  I guess this is what happens when you when you get old,
• 21:04
  right? Horror.
• 21:06
  Oh, Pablo Escobar, The first thing that goes with your mind,
• 21:10
  all the all these would have had a habit.
• 21:15
  Oh, yeah. I mean, look like the thing with
• 21:25
  the drug Lords, right? You talk about like Pablo
• 21:27
  Escobar. You talk about Noriega, you talk
• 21:30
  about Chapo, right? These guys, these big cartel
• 21:37
  drug Lords, it's easy to make them cool rock stars, right?
• 21:43
  Because the drug war is so awful that it seems like they might be
• 21:49
  the underdog rebel. But the problem is, is they're
• 21:51
  making the drug war worse on both ends.
• 21:56
  You know, they don't care how many people end up ODD and in
• 22:00
  prison because of the product they're importing.
• 22:02
  They know that there's a market for it.
• 22:04
  They know that it's worth way more than it should be.
• 22:08
  And by the way, the reason that drugs are expensive, you know,
• 22:10
  we're talking about the Colorado thing being expensive.
• 22:13
  But the reason the drugs are expensive is not anything to do
• 22:16
  with production. They're very cheap.
• 22:18
  Cocaine is really, really cheap to produce.
• 22:22
  Ungodly cheap. But the risk is what you're
• 22:25
  paying for. The risk of all the people along
• 22:29
  the chain, The risk of the guy that grew the coca leaf.
• 22:32
  The risk of the fucking guys that produced the cocaine
• 22:35
  through the fucking labs. Org labs in the jungle.
• 22:39
  The risk. Because if they get busted, even
• 22:41
  in Columbia, that shit ain't legal.
• 22:43
  They'll be fucked, right? Then they get to move it through
• 22:47
  at least three or four South American country borders where
• 22:51
  it is illegal. And yeah, there may be not the
• 22:53
  the greatest borders in the world, but if they get caught,
• 22:57
  they're really, really, you think they'd be fucked here?
• 23:00
  Imagine getting fucked in a Mexican prison.
• 23:03
  You know what I'm saying? And so all that risk, that's
• 23:07
  what you're paying for, You're paying for all the risk of all
• 23:10
  the middle men that got the the, the fucking product from
• 23:13
  beginning to your consumption of it.
• 23:16
  And that's it's very, very expensive.
• 23:18
  Because yes, the risk they're putting on it is literally their
• 23:22
  life or the rest of their life in prison.
• 23:26
  That's why it's so expensive. If we and that's why the drug
• 23:29
  war is fucking bad, you know, it's it's taking a product that
• 23:34
  would otherwise probably not even have the same appeal.
• 23:37
  Like like think about because I use cocaine as an example for a
• 23:40
  reason. Think about the public
• 23:42
  perception in America of cocaine, not crack cocaine.
• 23:47
  Rich people party. Rockstar.
• 23:51
  Hollywood business tycoon. Well, that's what it's related
• 23:55
  to, isn't it? Yeah, it's associated with
• 23:58
  affluence. Absolutely right.
• 24:01
  It's a it's a cheap plant that grows in the jungle and gets cut
• 24:05
  with fucking gasoline by like if you ever watch how the shit is
• 24:09
  made, you wouldn't think it's so fucking high class.
• 24:13
  It's right. It's not what you're what.
• 24:16
  Why? It's expensive.
• 24:18
  Which meant was what makes it associated with affluence is
• 24:21
  that all these guys faced life in prison or whatever to fucking
• 24:25
  get it to the States. Yeah, and we could cut that
• 24:29
  fucking problem off at the fucking balls by not allowing
• 24:34
  people to smuggle it into the States and make a heat living
• 24:37
  off of it. Because if I'm telling you right
• 24:39
  now, if we ended the drug war as such, they would, they would die
• 24:45
  overnight. They'd die overnight.
• 24:48
  They couldn't afford it anymore because then suddenly it's just
• 24:51
  a cheap. Like they don't smuggle fucking
• 24:53
  tobacco. You know what I mean?
• 24:55
  Because it's cheap. It's not worth shit.
• 24:58
  No, there's no black market for tobacco.
• 25:02
  Not yet. They keep raising the taxes on
• 25:04
  tobacco products, and you might see it when we're almost to that
• 25:09
  point where cigarettes are like $25 a pack.
• 25:12
  You might see a black market eventually.
• 25:15
  But because it's so cheap and easy to produce, there's no
• 25:17
  fucking black market. Yeah, and there.
• 25:21
  And there won't be a black market in pot if we legalize it
• 25:23
  in most states, at least not a black market.
• 25:28
  See, The thing is the black, the I'll, I kind of ripped on the
• 25:31
  black market in Colorado. But here's the thing.
• 25:34
  I bet you almost all of it's being grown there.
• 25:37
  Yeah, Not smuggled in from Mexico.
• 25:40
  Probably, because I'll tell you this, if you've ever smoked
• 25:43
  cheap Mexican brick weed, it ain't worth fucking 80 bucks an
• 25:48
  eighth, I'll tell you that. That shit ain't worth fucking.
• 25:53
  That shit ain't worth $5.00 an eighth.
• 25:54
  That shit is fucking good Bunk at, dude.
• 25:56
  Mexican brick weed is like the bottom of the barrel, but
• 26:00
  they're making fucking. They're making billions off of
• 26:03
  smuggling it in because we just have a law against it.
• 26:07
  Fucking yeah. It seems like an easy fix.
• 26:10
  I mean, I'm it gets tougher when you get to harder drugs, OK, but
• 26:16
  like can we can we just start with stop arresting.
• 26:23
  Here's a good example. A 40 year old dad who smokes a
• 26:27
  joint on the weekend. What?
• 26:30
  What is the point of arresting him?
• 26:32
  What does that do? Why is it such a big thing that
• 26:34
  he needs to be in prison for? Who is it hurting?
• 26:37
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Kamala Harris.
• 26:40
  Can we can we Mickey Haley. Yeah.
• 26:44
  Come on DeSantis. Yeah, let's.
• 26:53
  Yeah, let's, let's. Fucker said all the names.
• 26:56
  Damn it. Let's ask about that.
• 26:58
  So yeah, why does why does a 40 year old father who works really
• 27:04
  hard, has no criminal history deserve to be in jail because he
• 27:09
  likes to smoke a joint on a Friday night?
• 27:12
  If you can't answer that question, then you then you need
• 27:16
  to realize to let that at least that part of the drug war go
• 27:21
  right. Yeah.
• 27:23
  But I think the whole thing's a failure.
• 27:25
  I think it's going to waste of tax money and and it's like I
• 27:28
  said, it's ruined the communities it was supposed to
• 27:31
  protect. Yeah, literally ruined
• 27:36
  generations of families. And of course I said to
• 27:39
  excluding crack when I was talking about cocaine because of
• 27:42
  course crack came from the CIA in the 80s and to the black
• 27:45
  community specifically on purpose.
• 27:48
  Well, I mean, it's it's cool though when when you know Hunter
• 27:53
  leaves it in the White House, Yeah, that's cool.
• 27:57
  But freeway Ricky Ross is the devil, right?
• 28:00
  Give me a fucking break If you don't know.
• 28:02
  Look it up anyway though. He's the guy that exposed that
• 28:07
  the CIA actually was importing crack into inner cities because
• 28:11
  he was the one actually doing it for them.
• 28:13
  And he's been trying to speak out about this for about 25
• 28:16
  years. And mainstream media, if you've
• 28:19
  never heard of him, it's because the mainstream media don't want
• 28:22
  anything to do with him. Funny how that works.
• 28:26
  Freeway Ricky Ross. There's a rapper named Rick Ross
• 28:29
  who picked his name. There's a rapper called Noriega,
• 28:33
  too. I'm sure there's a rapper called
• 28:34
  Pablo Escobar as well, but you know what I mean?
• 28:38
  Because, like I said, there is a cool factor to them.
• 28:41
  You know, in a way, you can make it like it does seem like they
• 28:45
  rebels against the system, but they're not.
• 28:47
  They're predators. They're exploiting.
• 28:49
  They're exploiting people who are, you know, shouldn't be
• 28:54
  exploited because they don't have much.
• 28:57
  Yeah, they're cutting or in in the mentally ill and just the
• 29:06
  suffering. They're exploiting the people
• 29:08
  who are suffering. I mean, look, we people
• 29:11
  glorified Barack Obama and he droned people in in, in Groves,
• 29:17
  right. So by the way, including
• 29:21
  American Citizen. And he also prosecuted people
• 29:24
  for marijuana. When he wrote in his book about
• 29:26
  all the marijuana he smoked and all the cocaine he did.
• 29:29
  Yeah. Which, by the way, I love the
• 29:33
  fact it's OK for him to experiment, guys.
• 29:36
  It's OK, you know? And then he can just put
• 29:38
  everybody else in jail for the same thing that he fucking did.
• 29:41
  Just like Kamala. And listening to Tupac.
• 29:45
  First of all, Tupac hadn't put out an album yet.
• 29:47
  You stupid fucking cunt. So you're a liar, second of all.
• 29:52
  Oh, oh, you're just it's so funny that I was smoking pot.
• 29:54
  What about all those thousands of men you put in prison for
• 29:57
  smoking men and women that you put in prison in California for
• 30:00
  smoking pot and then check them after their fucking sentences to
• 30:03
  get free labor like slaves? But it's OK for you to smoke a
• 30:07
  joint and listen to Tupac, isn't it?
• 30:09
  You fucking whore? Joe and I gotta go like slaves.
• 30:16
  There I said it. Yeah by the way I love the fact
• 30:22
  that they've that like they've now rotted out Obama in Joe
• 30:28
  Biden's re election. I I love.
• 30:33
  I love the I would too because he's the second most popular
• 30:37
  living president. But no the years was even
• 30:42
  better. They're saying we must resist
• 30:44
  tyranny. Who's the first thing?
• 30:46
  So, but, so. But that is the $1,000,000
• 30:51
  question isn't who is the most popular living president?
• 30:58
  Well, we're not on YouTube, so I can say it.
• 31:01
  Donald J Trump. Yeah.
• 31:06
  You know, honestly, like if we were being honest with
• 31:09
  ourselves, a much fairer fight than Biden, Trump would have
• 31:13
  been Obama. Trump.
• 31:15
  I think that's actually the battle that that one, that one
• 31:19
  would. That one would have been cool to
• 31:21
  see. I think he did it were.
• 31:24
  It certainly would have been a bit more competitive I think
• 31:28
  even than Hillary and certainly more competitive than the race
• 31:32
  with Joe Biden. Whatever you think about the
• 31:34
  outcome. Oh, even Trump versus Bill
• 31:37
  Clinton would have been more riveting to to watch because say
• 31:41
  what you will about Slick Willie, but he was or as I call
• 31:45
  him, pussy smoke. Well, yeah, he brought he he he
• 31:49
  he want the smoke. You know what I mean?
• 31:55
  Hashtag cookies. I I cannot think of.
• 31:59
  I cannot think of Bill. You ruined Bill Clinton for me,
• 32:03
  Max, because now because now I can think of what I think of
• 32:11
  Bill Clinton is hashtag pussy, smoke, smoke.
• 32:18
  I was, I was actually thinking of Bill Clinton the entire time
• 32:21
  that that our Craig was doing calculations.
• 32:26
  So yeah, well, I mean, you set the scene, right?
• 32:29
  It's the same scene that was going on in the White House,
• 32:32
  except Craig's now there with a whiteboard writing fucking
• 32:35
  equations. Yeah, big, big.
• 32:42
  Shout out to the fake Untitled podcast for like, debating the
• 32:45
  math of it after he was on this show.
• 32:48
  That was great. Yeah.
• 32:51
  Yeah, I I listen to those guys that now too.
• 32:57
  Like their their whole people asked me what my take on on the
• 33:03
  whole Harvard thing was with that, with the Harvard
• 33:07
  president. And I've told people like just
• 33:09
  girlfriends that they can title podcast because they they they
• 33:15
  sent up the Harvard same thing. Better than either of us, better
• 33:21
  than any of any of us could. And I don't know about Morpheus,
• 33:26
  but I never went to any of the Ivy Leagues and I despise, I
• 33:32
  despise the Ivy Leagues. Honestly.
• 33:36
  Nope. I I went to state colleges.
• 33:40
  It it it it seems that these days it it fucking weirds people
• 33:44
  out to know that I have no higher education whatsoever.
• 33:49
  It it doesn't, it doesn't weird me out.
• 33:52
  But I mean, Oh no, not weird people out, but people don't
• 33:55
  expect me to actually say that because I'm well spoken and well
• 33:59
  read like well, I'm self-taught though.
• 34:02
  Yeah, yeah, you know you know how you know how to think as
• 34:06
  most, a lot of these college educated you know people who
• 34:13
  they have gender studies degrees but they can't.
• 34:16
  I have, I got it my second go around.
• 34:20
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 34:22
  I I think I've always kind of despised academia even then,
• 34:29
  even as a kid. Like honestly, I say what I said
• 34:32
  then today, fuck school. I'm a dad now it's and I
• 34:35
  shouldn't have this opinion. But I do fuck school.
• 34:39
  Fuck school. School isn't for everybody, you
• 34:42
  know. And and I understand everybody's
• 34:44
  got to go through it to some degree.
• 34:46
  But like, I was like to be to sit down and have a teacher
• 34:51
  order me to do all the same things as 29 other people.
• 34:57
  Like inevitably somebody like me is not going to feel comfortable
• 35:01
  with that. I don't take, I don't, I don't
• 35:05
  take orders very well. I am a naturally rebellious
• 35:07
  person and that caused me nothing but problems in school
• 35:11
  and everybody I know who is like that.
• 35:13
  Look, some people are just naturally like, no, fuck you and
• 35:17
  don't take orders well. And if you listen to the fucking
• 35:21
  the pro school people, they'll be like, oh, well, that just
• 35:24
  means that, you know, you're not going to fit in in society and
• 35:27
  you're going to need a job and you're never going to do this
• 35:28
  and you're never going to do that.
• 35:30
  And it's like, no, I know, like what do you use from 6th grade?
• 35:41
  The fact that I like nothing, Nothing other than the fact that
• 35:45
  that's like, I was going to make a joke, but my well, my answer
• 35:49
  was going to be I, I. The thing I learned in 6th grade
• 35:52
  that I still use today is the rules of Dungeons and Dragons.
• 35:57
  Yeah. And I learned that by sitting in
• 36:00
  the back of the class. OK, we had a teacher, you know,
• 36:05
  the teachers, the male teacher, specifically, an older guy who
• 36:08
  will just go off on a tangent if you get him started on a topic.
• 36:13
  Our guy. The topic was either the Titanic
• 36:15
  or World War 2. So we would always look up and
• 36:19
  go out of our way, go into encyclopedias or or whatever.
• 36:23
  And the three of us that that did this would always find a
• 36:26
  question to ask the teacher during first period so that we
• 36:30
  could sit in the back of the class playing Dungeons and
• 36:33
  Dragons and he would be off on his rant and not even notice.
• 36:36
  I had AI had a choir teacher in in middle school.
• 36:41
  Yes I I was in the men. Yes, I was in the men's choir
• 36:45
  and junior high, and I had AI had a choir teacher who loved
• 36:50
  The Beatles and it was so easy just to get him off on a tangent
• 36:55
  about the about The Beatles. It was, yeah, it was.
• 37:02
  He was actually a cool dude. We had to get pretty creative
• 37:06
  after a while, 'cause you run out of easy questions.
• 37:10
  So that's why. I mean, we're looking up, we're
• 37:11
  like looking up very specific Titanic facts.
• 37:14
  So that because it's like, oh God, we got to play tomorrow,
• 37:17
  you know, we're halfway through the fucking dungeon, What are we
• 37:20
  going to ask the teacher? And I swear to God, the whole
• 37:23
  year he never figured out what we were doing.
• 37:25
  He just fell for it every fucking time.
• 37:28
  And so all I learned through the entirety of 6th grade is the
• 37:31
  rules of Dungeons and Dragons, Second edition.
• 37:36
  All right, there. There is one thing that I that I
• 37:39
  learned in in 6th grade, 6th grade science teacher Mr. Brown
• 37:43
  shout out to Mr. Brown. He got us got a bunch of newly
• 37:46
  hatched snapping turtles that year.
• 37:49
  I took one home. So I learned how to take care of
• 37:50
  a snapping turtle. Yeah, I mean, there are things,
• 37:56
  right? There are things you'll pick up
• 37:58
  through school. But largely a lot of what is
• 38:00
  being forced on kids is stuff that, ironically, they will
• 38:03
  never need for the rest of their life.
• 38:05
  Algebra, for one. If you're not, if you're not
• 38:07
  going into higher education, I do not understand why algebra
• 38:11
  and geometry are mandatory. You'll never use that.
• 38:16
  But you know what they don't teach in school?
• 38:18
  Economics. You know what they don't teach
• 38:20
  in common sense? How to do your fucking taxes.
• 38:23
  Did anybody ever tell you how to do your fucking taxes in school?
• 38:27
  Why should? Why is that not a class?
• 38:29
  This is the thing every fucking American has to do.
• 38:34
  Do they teach you how to fucking balance a checkbook?
• 38:37
  No. Nope.
• 38:39
  It's like, well then what the fuck are you teaching these kids
• 38:43
  gender now? It's I one of these kids will be
• 38:49
  able to do their fucking taxes, but they'll be able to tell you
• 38:52
  all about Critical race theory or or how many different made-up
• 38:56
  genders there are. But it's OK when they go on
• 38:59
  welfare, they won't have to pay taxes.
• 39:01
  So probably true. Oh, it's not.
• 39:05
  Probably. Like, literally, welfare
• 39:07
  recipients don't pay taxes, so they don't pay.
• 39:12
  That's what they want you to be, apparently.
• 39:14
  The Democrats at least. And the fucking elite.
• 39:20
  Why would you have nothing in three?
• 39:21
  What? Well, that that's another good
• 39:25
  question. What happens when?
• 39:26
  When they run out of rich guys to pay taxes, they're hoping
• 39:33
  that their communist revolution happens before that.
• 39:37
  But what if it doesn't? It won't.
• 39:40
  It's never going to happen. Even Marx knew that.
• 39:44
  It's not going to happen in America.
• 39:45
  It's like the idea that the working class in America is
• 39:49
  going to have a communist revolution.
• 39:51
  Marx would laugh at that. He did.
• 39:55
  He did actively say that. That's a stupid idea and that's
• 39:58
  why they came around with the Frankfurt School and like
• 40:01
  Cultural Marxist and and that's where you get victim culture
• 40:05
  from and aggrieved minority groups, if you really look into
• 40:09
  it. Maybe I'm getting a little too
• 40:10
  deep off in the weeds but they needed look, the white working
• 40:14
  class of America was never going to rise up because they were
• 40:16
  pretty pretty well happy. So they had to.
• 40:19
  They had to find other groups to replace them.
• 40:22
  And they started doing it in the 20s with the flapper movement
• 40:25
  and the feminists and the first sexual revolution.
• 40:28
  But what they realized, interestingly enough, that was
• 40:31
  their first attempt was the roaring 20s and that women
• 40:35
  should be more sexually liberated and stuff.
• 40:38
  Here was the problem. They went out and got pregnant
• 40:43
  and there wasn't as much like you couldn't be a single mom in
• 40:47
  1925. That was a death sentence.
• 40:51
  So what did they do? They got knocked up, they got
• 40:55
  married and they became moms and grandmas and more conservative
• 41:00
  as well. And so the progressives and the
• 41:02
  in the cultural Marxists were like, well, we can't do them.
• 41:04
  So then it was, let's focus on the getting the, the pill,
• 41:10
  essentially the, the they, they'd always called it the pill
• 41:13
  long before it was created. And you know, Margaret Sanger
• 41:17
  was involved in that. There was a woman, I can't
• 41:20
  remember her name from, like she was like a Harvard alumni who
• 41:23
  put a lot of money towards it. And the idea was if they get the
• 41:27
  pill, they can do sexual revolution Part 2, which they
• 41:30
  did in the 60s, Right. But meanwhile they were like,
• 41:36
  well, we also should find other aggrieved groups.
• 41:38
  And that's where the civil rights movement came from.
• 41:40
  Yes, the civil rights movement stems from communist agitators.
• 41:44
  Now, you could argue about the fruits of their labor, but the
• 41:48
  initial push was a push for destabilization of American
• 41:52
  culture. And I would argue that once the
• 41:56
  civil rights movement was kind of done and dusted in like the
• 41:59
  70s and 80s, they failed right? Until now.
• 42:07
  Race was a lot less of an issue until they made it 1 again with
• 42:11
  wokeness. And I want to say it started in
• 42:13
  basically 2014. Yeah, and now they're adding
• 42:18
  their new favorite outsider group because again, the
• 42:23
  straight white males of American working class aren't going to
• 42:26
  rise up. Turns out the feminists weren't
• 42:29
  actually going to rise up either.
• 42:30
  Turns out the black guys weren't actually rising up either.
• 42:34
  Now we need a new group, Gays and trannies, right?
• 42:38
  I I would even argue like the gays and trannies are rising up.
• 42:43
  Well, I mean, and I would even say that like for most of I'm
• 42:48
  not taking out the trannies, but just excluding, excluding trans.
• 42:52
  I would even say that like even a lot of the gay people are like
• 42:57
  are kind of like, yeah, this is a little SUS even for us.
• 43:01
  So I've talked to gay people who have told me that a lot of gay
• 43:06
  people are kind of going back in the closet now.
• 43:08
  Yeah, no, a lot. A lot of which I just want to be
• 43:12
  very clear. I don't actually think that's a
• 43:15
  good thing. I don't think that's a good
• 43:18
  thing at all. But I understand.
• 43:19
  Why did you want to do one of those?
• 43:23
  Fucking circus. It's a circus.
• 43:27
  Yeah. Well, I mean, one of my, one of
• 43:30
  my serious people, one of the gay, one of the gay guys that I
• 43:34
  went to college with said it perfectly.
• 43:36
  Like, I want to be treated as an equal.
• 43:41
  Not like, not like profiled and like, like specifically
• 43:49
  celebrated for being, you know, gay.
• 43:52
  Like there, there's more. Yeah.
• 43:54
  I want to be treated like an equal.
• 43:55
  Not better. Not like a freak show.
• 44:00
  Well, I mean, like, yeah, so that this guy, this guy and I,
• 44:04
  we were part of like a gaming group of alum, you know, of
• 44:08
  alumni's that we went to college with.
• 44:11
  And he was pissed off when like when over the summer Call of
• 44:14
  Call of Duty decided to like dive head first into gay pride
• 44:21
  and like do rainbow, you know, colored machine guns and rainbow
• 44:27
  colored skin packs. And, you know, it's interesting
• 44:32
  that they have pushed the LGBT movement to be very pro war is
• 44:38
  that. I mean that's really weird to
• 44:41
  me, but they are, they're very pro war now, you know, like I
• 44:47
  know I give Charlie Cook a hard time at times, but he actually
• 44:51
  pointed that out the other day on on his show.
• 44:54
  And yeah, it is. It is weird.
• 44:58
  I don't necessarily now I don't necessarily believe that there's
• 45:01
  a weird conspiracy. I've heard out there that like
• 45:03
  the whole reason why the left is pushing the Ukraine Russian, the
• 45:08
  Russian narrative is because of is because Putin hates gay
• 45:15
  people. I've heard that theory, but I
• 45:17
  don't think it holds up so well. He he's the reason for that
• 45:21
  theory, though. Putin has nobody to blame but
• 45:23
  himself because that's what he said in his speech.
• 45:26
  Yeah, I mean, no. And I get that invasion speech.
• 45:30
  He cited that and he cited Nazis in in Ukraine.
• 45:34
  That's what he said was his justification.
• 45:36
  It was it was for de Nazification and also because
• 45:40
  they were pushing trans ideology into.
• 45:42
  That's what he said. If you watch his speech, you
• 45:45
  obviously I don't speak Russian, so I watched a translated
• 45:48
  version. So maybe what I'm getting out of
• 45:50
  it isn't exactly perfect, but he basically said that the two
• 45:54
  major reasons for his invasion of Ukraine, number one was
• 45:57
  denazification. Well, actually the three,
• 46:00
  because the third major reason is that it's like Russian
• 46:03
  territory or whatever, historically, which is fucking,
• 46:09
  oh oh wow, you took, you took it into the Soviet Union by force.
• 46:13
  So yeah, that makes it yours. Fuck you.
• 46:15
  But regardless, that's that's the justification and that that
• 46:19
  is why a lot of like edgy conservatives are pro Putin.
• 46:23
  It's because they think he's this big anti-gay guy.
• 46:26
  But I got a news flash for you. That's not the case.
• 46:32
  No, I mean, listen, the the guy, the guy like I can't get sued
• 46:37
  for this. Now hold on.
• 46:38
  Yeah, no, the reason it's not the case is that Putin is a
• 46:42
  flaming homosexual. Guys, did you know this?
• 46:46
  Have you heard about this? Listen, wouldn't what?
• 46:50
  Listen, Melanie. Melanie Mac says the slur.
• 46:53
  So she says it. Well, you didn't.
• 46:56
  She said it wrong and I called her on it.
• 46:58
  You saw it. I called her out.
• 47:01
  I was like, you said fatty. And she's like, no, I didn't.
• 47:03
  I was like, you didn't enunciate it.
• 47:05
  Well, you know why she didn't. And I'm not trying to.
• 47:07
  Shit. I actually, I don't have a
• 47:09
  problem with Melanie. I know a lot of people don't
• 47:11
  like her. I don't have a problem with
• 47:12
  Melanie Mac. I think sometimes she's funny.
• 47:15
  Blessed you. The reason I point that out is
• 47:18
  because that word is not natural coming out of her mouth like it
• 47:21
  is for me. Well, listen, I have to force
• 47:26
  herself to say that. And you can tell.
• 47:29
  Listen, I appreciate her making a statement by saying it.
• 47:33
  I do, because I think we do need to push back on that.
• 47:36
  I don't think words should be fucking universally banned.
• 47:39
  And yes, that includes the N word.
• 47:41
  And I'm sorry, not sorry. I think that I think that if we
• 47:45
  just fucking it, we take the power away from those words.
• 47:50
  Whatever. No, I I like saying it.
• 47:53
  OK? I'm in my college.
• 47:55
  Each other cripple. Well, Morpheus, since we're
• 48:00
  here. I mean, you didn't want you were
• 48:03
  here when, when, when Max was giving me, you know, deservedly
• 48:10
  so, crap about my sending for, you know, Sky Blue.
• 48:15
  But I have to ask you more of this.
• 48:17
  What is your opinion on Miss Melanie Mac.
• 48:20
  Oh, no. Here we go.
• 48:23
  I had some four. What?
• 48:28
  I I'm sorry. Am a Melanie Maxim?
• 48:35
  Yes. Yes, you are.
• 48:39
  Yeah. But see the difference between
• 48:41
  that and you and Sky blue is he immediately admitted to it and
• 48:45
  you were like, no, no, it's not like it's like that though.
• 48:49
  No, no. Yeah, I listen, I but but y'all
• 48:53
  have y'all have already abandoned that blue sky chick,
• 48:56
  huh? It's all about that Mariah May
• 48:58
  now, ain't it You fucking what? Sam.
• 49:01
  Sam. Sam loves it.
• 49:02
  And some Sky Blue still I I I used to like listen.
• 49:07
  I like. I like Trish Stratus though the
• 49:10
  the OG and I I've never thoughts on what's your thoughts on Wendy
• 49:15
  Richter. Yeah.
• 49:20
  Isn't isn't she too cookie for me.
• 49:23
  Isn't she the one who went to went to jail recently.
• 49:29
  I don't. I don't know.
• 49:30
  If she did. What would that have to do with
• 49:32
  the price of tea in China, though?
• 49:34
  No, that would be Sunny. Yeah, that was Sunny.
• 49:36
  OK. No.
• 49:37
  Wendy Richter. Wendy Richter was from the Hulk
• 49:40
  Hogan era. She was the one.
• 49:42
  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. She had a whole.
• 49:44
  She was the one that was working with.
• 49:47
  What's her face? The singer there.
• 49:48
  Girls just want to have fun. Cyndi Lauper?
• 49:52
  Yeah. Cindy, What's an I got?
• 49:54
  I probably got banned from a Discord because I said that
• 50:00
  Jenny McCarthy had a right to say what she says about
• 50:05
  vaccines. All right, how about this?
• 50:09
  How about this? I'll get I'll give you guys a
• 50:11
  chance to redeem yourself top five women wrestlers and then
• 50:16
  compare to mine all time all time.
• 50:22
  Number one misses Elizabeth. She was a she was never a
• 50:26
  wrestler I know she but manager as far as I'm concerned I said
• 50:29
  wrestler. They're in the they're in the
• 50:30
  same category for me right. Well we could talk about valets
• 50:34
  later but I'm talking about wrestlers.
• 50:39
  Honey doesn't count. Honey who doesn't count.
• 50:42
  Sunny because she was a manager. OK.
• 50:46
  China Alexa. Alexa Bliss at #2.
• 50:54
  Really. OK, go ahead.
• 51:00
  Tris Stratus. Tori was more of a diva.
• 51:08
  OK, Is this just five ones you can think of?
• 51:11
  I mean, you can include your sky Blues and all your modern
• 51:14
  chicks. I don't care.
• 51:16
  Yeah, let's be honest. She even I could admit that she
• 51:19
  can't wrestle. But if you I was going to say
• 51:22
  like, and I have, I I actually, I love Alexa Bliss.
• 51:25
  She's great. The fact that she's #2 suggests
• 51:30
  that you're not judging based on wrestling skills.
• 51:33
  No, I'm. I'm literally kind of doing the
• 51:38
  off the top of my head thing. Yeah.
• 51:42
  Yeah, so. So am I.
• 51:43
  So am I I I didn't plan this ahead of time.
• 51:47
  AJAJ Lee, who I know Morpheus likes, That's five.
• 52:03
  OK, That is five. OK So Morpheus you can you can
• 52:08
  do better right. If we're going to go in order
• 52:11
  China. AJ Lee is number 2 for me.
• 52:14
  Yes that's yeah. You're you got a better start
• 52:20
  that's for sure. I'm going to I'm going to go
• 52:24
  with Lita for number it's #3. OK.
• 52:30
  I just just like her style over Overtrush.
• 52:32
  Both are great but personally I'm I'm I'm a leader guy a lot
• 52:36
  of guys were a lot of guys were. Yep.
• 52:44
  Then I'm going to go with go go with Bunny.
• 52:47
  As far as wrestling system #4. Who?
• 52:51
  Bunny Alley. OK, I don't know who that is.
• 52:54
  Oh, she's a she's a newer. AW, gotcha.
• 53:01
  All right, so #5, you know, I'd probably give Trish #5.
• 53:10
  OK? I mean, that's a problem.
• 53:13
  OK, Fabulous Moolah. That's not even a contest.
• 53:17
  She was champion Women's champion for 30 years.
• 53:19
  She trained almost every woman's wrestler up until the fucking
• 53:23
  late 90s, early 2000s. You can say what you want about
• 53:28
  her. WWE can bury her.
• 53:29
  The woke people can cancel her. Fabulous Moolah was the toughest
• 53:33
  woman on the planet for about 30 years.
• 53:35
  I have no, no issue with Moolah #1.
• 53:38
  Moolah #1 #2 Wendy Richter #3 would be Medusa, #4 #4 Bull
• 53:51
  Nakano and #5 Luna Vachon. And you'll notice I didn't pick
• 53:59
  a single one based on their looks.
• 54:02
  Yeah, I can also tell you that, like, at least everyone on my
• 54:06
  list, I just want to be real clear.
• 54:08
  Everyone on my list would wrestle circles around everyone
• 54:11
  on both of Y'all's lists. I can also probably tell you
• 54:14
  that like you and Morpheus, you guys like modern wrestling.
• 54:20
  You don't like wrestling. You like what they call
• 54:22
  wrestling. It's 'cause what you grew up on.
• 54:25
  I get it. I like.
• 54:27
  I like a little bit of wrestling but but.
• 54:28
  But I do like like modern more. More.
• 54:31
  Yes. Yeah.
• 54:34
  And actually no. I'm.
• 54:35
  I'm. I'm going to kick Trish off and
• 54:37
  go and go with Oscar. Really.
• 54:41
  Oscar over Trish? Yes.
• 54:44
  OK Well, I I wouldn't pick a Joshi at all.
• 54:49
  But specifically because of her work in Japan.
• 54:55
  That's exactly why I wouldn't put her on the list.
• 54:57
  But yeah, I got you. You like that style.
• 54:59
  That's why you guys watch AEW. You like now it goes a little
• 55:05
  further, but it goes a little further than that.
• 55:13
  You like, you know? Yeah.
• 55:14
  I mean, you guys love the TNA that they show.
• 55:17
  That's that's true too. Especially.
• 55:19
  Well, it's not. Y'all watch their B shows.
• 55:21
  Y'all don't watch their B shows, 'cause you love AW, 'cause you
• 55:24
  know, you're going to get like creep shots from the camera,
• 55:26
  Man, I'm not stupid for for me it's not.
• 55:29
  It's not even about that. What?
• 55:34
  No, it's totally the wrestling. It's so good.
• 55:38
  I will give you my reason not off.
• 55:40
  Fair. Fair enough.
• 55:43
  OK. No.
• 55:44
  If. No.
• 55:46
  If. We really need to.
• 55:47
  If we if, if anyone needs the Jesus that's watching the
• 55:51
  speech, it's our Craig. Not Craig the engineer or Craig
• 55:55
  Blisbett. Yeah, yeah, but you know what?
• 55:58
  Like he's unapologetic about it and I respect it more than y'all
• 56:02
  trying to play both sides. No.
• 56:06
  Well, I've given passes to passes to basically everybody
• 56:09
  from your little group except for you 2.
• 56:11
  You two are the only ones because you try and play the
• 56:14
  other side like I'm not the horny poster.
• 56:18
  Everybody else gets a pass for that reason.
• 56:20
  I I don't. I am the high police captain.
• 56:22
  God damn it. I I ironic.
• 56:26
  I ironically do it, though. Yeah, yeah, that's what it is.
• 56:33
  No, it's it's cool. That's cool.
• 56:35
  I just find it fun. It's like, 'cause, I mean, I'm
• 56:39
  willing to bet if we did a list of like top five, like wrestler
• 56:42
  wrestlers, like men, you know, 'cause like I've mentioned
• 56:45
  before on the show that I actually would prefer women
• 56:48
  didn't wrestle at all. I'm OK with women.
• 56:53
  I'm OK with women walking around the ring.
• 56:58
  OK, Looking good. They just shouldn't be in the
• 57:02
  ring. You know why that is?
• 57:05
  Undermines wrestling? Because everybody's looking at
• 57:09
  220 LB. Girls pretending to hurt each
• 57:13
  other and saying that shit's fake.
• 57:17
  Yeah, no, no, fair enough. At least Moolah made it look
• 57:23
  like a shoot fight. No, I'm going to get get a lot
• 57:27
  of shit for from a lot of us, a lot of our guys on on Twitter,
• 57:31
  but I really don't like inner gender.
• 57:34
  Yeah, well, inner gender is even stupider.
• 57:36
  But I think, like, women's wrestling itself is a blight on
• 57:39
  the industry, and it was why the industry will never be as
• 57:42
  successful as it was in the 90s or 80s.
• 57:45
  Never. It's never going to happen.
• 57:47
  They pulled the curtain too far back.
• 57:49
  Yeah, yeah, you blew up kayfabe and now everything looks fake.
• 57:52
  You can't watch wrestling without saying something in a
• 57:54
  match that looks fake as fuck. That's it.
• 57:56
  And I'm telling you that's not the case in like 1986 in the
• 58:00
  terror. I I kind of have to ask this
• 58:06
  though. And I'm like, so I'm a, I'm a
• 58:10
  big fan of the of like 80s B movies that are like over the
• 58:15
  top fake because there's like a, there's a certain charm to like
• 58:20
  watching Kurt Russell. You like parodies and so you
• 58:24
  like parody wrestling. Yes.
• 58:26
  I understand that. That's what I've been saying.
• 58:28
  Yeah. And so you don't like wrestling.
• 58:30
  You like parody of this is AAW fans.
• 58:33
  This is why wrestling fans hate AAW fans because like that's not
• 58:39
  wrestling that's making fun of wrestling.
• 58:41
  Weston. A lot of, a lot of.
• 58:44
  AW fans. I I will say this a lot of AW
• 58:47
  fans give me crap because I like UFC.
• 58:49
  Actually from what I've been able to see I yeah, no, I I I
• 58:56
  like UFC. My only.
• 58:58
  My only problem with UFC as you and I have talking to Max is the
• 59:03
  price tag of of UFCI think that's going to be changing with
• 59:08
  the merger. I think that they've seen the
• 59:11
  value in the the network model, but that's that's besides the
• 59:15
  point. I did have a wrestling related
• 59:18
  story. Somebody in modern wrestling a
• 59:22
  new new guy has impressed me to a large degree today.
• 59:28
  Oh hear about this. We we we need we need a breaking
• 59:32
  news sound effect for for this. Let me let me see if I if I can
• 59:37
  find one. I'm going to in the internal
• 59:42
  chat here. I'm going to drop you a link in
• 59:45
  the private chat and you're going to want to bring that
• 59:49
  video up so that we can watch it so that I can.
• 59:54
  You know why? This guy has extremely impressed
• 59:57
  me and I'm reminded of a of a a young doctor, Dave Schultz.
• 1:00:03
  I'm reminded of a Vader in Kuwait by this Grayson Waller
• 1:00:07
  guy, and he has won me over. What he does from here is
• 1:00:11
  anybody's guess. Obviously he's a heel, but
• 1:00:14
  that's. I don't fucking care about that.
• 1:00:18
  Let me pull that up. I'm sorry that it's from Reddit,
• 1:00:26
  but that's the only copy of the video that I could find.
• 1:00:29
  No, no, I I I get it. I just have to.
• 1:00:33
  I just have to do a few things. Yeah.
• 1:00:36
  Yeah, I I I wish I had it on Twitter, but I couldn't find it
• 1:00:40
  there. No, no, it's fine.
• 1:00:45
  And I I just want you to watch it and react to what you see and
• 1:00:48
  and and maybe figure out why. I think that this was great
• 1:00:54
  because the set up for this, by the way, ladies and gentlemen,
• 1:00:59
  well Sam brings it up, is WWE is doing a big event in Australia.
• 1:01:07
  This guy Grayson Waller is from Australia and so he went on Good
• 1:01:14
  Morning Australia. Their version of Good Morning
• 1:01:16
  America, I think it's called Sunrise or something.
• 1:01:19
  And so him and I believe LA Knight are on the show and I
• 1:01:25
  just that's all the set up for the clip that I'm going to give.
• 1:01:30
  OK, let's see what this is. Let me see if if I OK.
• 1:01:41
  Can you guys see this any better?
• 1:01:44
  Yeah, it's it's mostly full screen, so it should be fine.
• 1:01:47
  Yeah, it's full screen for me. OK.
• 1:01:49
  OK. Just wanted to make sure if
• 1:01:53
  it'll OK. Good old Reddit being garbage.
• 1:02:03
  Yeah, tell me about it. Come on.
• 1:02:15
  OK. Ella, can you give us one of
• 1:02:18
  your signature finishing moves? Can I give you?
• 1:02:21
  Yeah. Can you like, not me, but can
• 1:02:24
  you show us one of the move? No, I I think it actually just
• 1:02:28
  showed on the screen there. If I do that, it's not going to
• 1:02:30
  be a good. Maybe someone in like our our
• 1:02:32
  floor manager maybe He seems about actually our floor
• 1:02:35
  manager's leaving this week. Yeah.
• 1:02:37
  And he's sort of. Yeah.
• 1:02:38
  I don't know if that's that's not for me.
• 1:02:40
  You want to go ahead and take this one?
• 1:02:42
  Look, you, I don't think you understand.
• 1:02:47
  Like if I come over there right now, we're going to have the
• 1:02:49
  police here, 'cause I'm not going to give you some fake
• 1:02:50
  punch. Like I'm going to punch you
• 1:02:51
  straight in the jaw, the actual the disrespect that you have
• 1:02:54
  even talking to me. No, You want to talk to me like
• 1:02:56
  this? Is this Is saying real?
• 1:02:58
  I don't know. Don't act or talk.
• 1:02:59
  Like don't act or talk. Don't get in the middle of this.
• 1:03:01
  You keep getting out of there. Get out of here.
• 1:03:04
  You get it? I'm so sorry.
• 1:03:05
  You guys come here, try and disrespect that.
• 1:03:08
  Are you kidding me? I'm not disrespecting.
• 1:03:11
  You're alright, mate? No, we love you.
• 1:03:13
  Yeah. Hey, you take that trash talk
• 1:03:15
  and you get out of here. You get out of here.
• 1:03:17
  You take that trash or you get out.
• 1:03:19
  I won't have these guests disrespected like that.
• 1:03:20
  Mitch, you get out. Can you wrap this up Cold your
• 1:03:25
  pants tight? OK.
• 1:03:26
  Thank you very much, gentlemen, for coming in.
• 1:03:29
  So, LA, can you get? First off, Australians are a bit
• 1:03:33
  weird, but I like that. Yeah, well, I, as an old school
• 1:03:40
  wrestling fan, am sick and tired of the Yeah, it's fake.
• 1:03:43
  Isn't it great that that would be what what they would call
• 1:03:47
  back in the day exposing the business?
• 1:03:49
  Yeah. And the reason that they said
• 1:03:51
  that you didn't want to expose the business is exactly what the
• 1:03:54
  state of the business is in now because it killed it.
• 1:03:58
  Agreed. You know, people are like, oh,
• 1:04:01
  look, AW, get good ratings. Like 700,000 people a week in
• 1:04:06
  1998. ECW.
• 1:04:09
  I meant, sorry, WCW was getting 10 million a week.
• 1:04:12
  WWE was getting 9 million a week at the same time.
• 1:04:17
  Where did all those people go? Oh right, you told him it was
• 1:04:21
  fake. You told him it was stupid.
• 1:04:23
  You the wrestling companies, you the wrestlers.
• 1:04:27
  Not not just like the media, right, wrestling.
• 1:04:31
  Vince McMahon came out and said, yeah, it's scripted
• 1:04:33
  entertainment. Well, why should I fucking care?
• 1:04:39
  You don't even want to pretend it's real.
• 1:04:40
  Why should I pretend it's real? That's, you know, that's why.
• 1:04:47
  That's why Vince's Football League, the the American
• 1:04:53
  Football League failed is because even when he said it
• 1:04:57
  wasn't going to be scripted, nobody believed him that it
• 1:05:02
  wasn't going to be scripted. So that's not why it failed, but
• 1:05:07
  well, well, certainly didn't help.
• 1:05:12
  Didn't. It was kind of irrelevant to the
• 1:05:15
  to the discussion. It failed for a bunch of other
• 1:05:17
  reasons. But no, it's why wrestling has
• 1:05:20
  failed. It's why AEW gets everybody's
• 1:05:25
  like AEW is this huge company. They get less weekly viewers
• 1:05:29
  than TNA in 2008. Was TNAA big deal?
• 1:05:33
  No, no, nobody was watching it. Nobody's watching AW either.
• 1:05:38
  But the problem is, is it gets a outsized response on social
• 1:05:43
  media and also people are watching less TV, so you're
• 1:05:47
  going to get lower ratings. WWEWWE is happy with like the
• 1:05:52
  2.6. I think they got 2.6 on RAW last
• 1:05:56
  week, 2.6 million, but again, that's 1/4 of the audience that
• 1:06:01
  they had 20 years ago and in the 80s too.
• 1:06:05
  Like, people sleep on it because they think of the Monday night
• 1:06:07
  wars or whatever. But in the 80s, you know,
• 1:06:11
  WrestleMania did gangbusters. WrestleMania 3 had like 1000
• 1:06:15
  people. They say 93,000.
• 1:06:18
  It was closer to 80,000 'cause that's how many of the Skydome
• 1:06:21
  fits. But the motherfucker was sold
• 1:06:22
  out. There's a lot of fucking people.
• 1:06:25
  Also, Tony Khan can kiss my ass with saying the biggest
• 1:06:27
  wrestling event ever, the Toronto Skydome, was bigger than
• 1:06:30
  his stupid fucking London show. Yeah, yeah, he's that's just a
• 1:06:38
  lie. That's just not true.
• 1:06:41
  So, Max, Speaking of professional wrestling, how
• 1:06:46
  about Trump versus, you know, Trump Body slammed DeSantis in
• 1:06:53
  Iowa. That's, you know what we should
• 1:06:56
  do, Max? We should do like, like,
• 1:06:59
  wrestling style commentary during the presidential debates.
• 1:07:05
  Yeah, here's here's an interesting thing.
• 1:07:07
  Trump for this primary season, you guys will like this has been
• 1:07:13
  Roman Reigns. He's the man everybody knows.
• 1:07:19
  He's the man. Everybody wants to take his spot
• 1:07:23
  and he only shows up when he sees fit.
• 1:07:28
  Trump. Trump is tribal chief.
• 1:07:30
  Trump is the head of the table. Tell me I'm wrong.
• 1:07:38
  No, you're not wrong. What, So you would have, You
• 1:07:43
  know what that makes DeSantis? The Miz.
• 1:07:49
  Yeah, DeSantis is the Miz. All the.
• 1:07:52
  Yeah. DeSantis is the Miz.
• 1:07:54
  Mickey. Ailey.
• 1:07:56
  Vicky Guerrero. I love it.
• 1:07:58
  Yeah. Yeah I I was going to say that
• 1:08:06
  like I was going to say that Desant.
• 1:08:10
  Well, I mean Desant is his wife. I I can't bash her at all.
• 1:08:15
  I can what what's her name What's like I I don't know much
• 1:08:19
  about her but I'll bash her. Well I I was going to make AI
• 1:08:22
  was going to make a joke that she's not even as that she's not
• 1:08:26
  even a that she's not even attractive as as the as Marie's
• 1:08:34
  or whatever her name is. So I suppose that's fair though.
• 1:08:42
  Yeah. I you know we expected the Iowa
• 1:08:46
  outcome right? Like, I I'm what I'm surprised
• 1:08:49
  by is like Bill Mitchell, actually, literally, I I thought
• 1:08:54
  he was just playing a bit. But it seems like he actually
• 1:08:58
  thought Trump wouldn't win Iowa, which makes him really, really
• 1:09:03
  dumb and you should never listen to anything he says.
• 1:09:05
  Again, Bill Mitchell. Bill Mitchell was like picking
• 1:09:09
  fights with people back in 2016 to be like the top, like he went
• 1:09:14
  after Wayne Dupree and like and like other people who were like
• 1:09:20
  day one Trump guys, just so he could be like the top.
• 1:09:24
  I'm not saying he was great before this.
• 1:09:27
  I'm just saying that his predictive power has been proven
• 1:09:32
  to be completely retarded. No, no.
• 1:09:35
  And I'm just saying I'm not surprised by that at all,
• 1:09:37
  because he's always been that way as as long as I've been
• 1:09:41
  aware of them. In fact, you know what?
• 1:09:43
  You know what he's like. He's like, you know, Jim Cramer,
• 1:09:47
  Mad Money. Oh, yeah, of course he's exactly
• 1:09:51
  like that. Because whatever Bill Mitchell
• 1:09:54
  says, you can bank, the opposite being true.
• 1:09:57
  Same with Jim Cramer. If Jim Cramer says buy Apple
• 1:10:00
  stock and you have Apple stock, you bet.
• 1:10:02
  Sell that bitch. Yeah, if Jim Cramer says the sky
• 1:10:06
  is blue, you better double check that motherfucker, 'cause it's
• 1:10:09
  probably not. That's built up well, depending
• 1:10:15
  on where you are in certain parts of your New York.
• 1:10:18
  It was brown this summer from all those fires.
• 1:10:23
  So yeah, thankfully not here. We've predicted this since the
• 1:10:29
  beginning, right? Trump's going to fucking win
• 1:10:31
  this in a landslide. And I'll, I'll say this, Trump
• 1:10:36
  made some comments about Vivek this week, and I don't disagree.
• 1:10:41
  Now it's moot point now that the Vivek is dropped out.
• 1:10:46
  But he was like, what Trump accused him of doing.
• 1:10:49
  He was doing. He was saying don't vote for
• 1:10:52
  Trump because they're going to screw him over.
• 1:10:54
  Vote for me instead. Yeah, And Trump called him on
• 1:10:57
  that. Yeah, that's kind of a shady
• 1:10:59
  tactic. Yeah.
• 1:11:00
  You know what's? You know what's interesting,
• 1:11:02
  though? And he said a vote for Trump is
• 1:11:04
  a vote for Nikki Haley, which I find to be very fucking stupid.
• 1:11:08
  Yeah. But I get it that, like, he was
• 1:11:12
  the the home stretch. He said some things.
• 1:11:15
  I'm not going to hold it against him.
• 1:11:16
  And he did the right thing and dropping out and endorsing
• 1:11:19
  Trump. So, well, I did want to point
• 1:11:21
  out Trump was right about him. No, he no, he was.
• 1:11:25
  But like, listen, he was as he was, as underhanded as, say, Ron
• 1:11:31
  DeSantis was with Trump. I mean Roy, he wasn't making
• 1:11:36
  fake AI videos and shit for sure.
• 1:11:39
  Well, I mean heck, during the during up until this point, it
• 1:11:43
  didn't roll in. Seem like Vivek had anything bad
• 1:11:46
  to say on Trump at all. In fact, like my my friend Luke,
• 1:11:52
  fair to be fair what he was saying wasn't really bad about
• 1:11:55
  Trump. Right.
• 1:11:56
  But it. But when Trump said it's a sly
• 1:11:59
  campaign tactic it it is a vote for Trump is a vote for Nikki
• 1:12:03
  Haley because they're gonna screw him anyway.
• 1:12:06
  And and and I'm going to be honest, Vivek, you know again
• 1:12:11
  I've met the guy personally. He's a really nice guy.
• 1:12:13
  That's more reason for me to vote for Trump.
• 1:12:16
  Don't you understand? My vote for Trump isn't a oh
• 1:12:21
  this is the path forward. My vote for Trump is a middle
• 1:12:24
  finger. That's what it and it's going to
• 1:12:28
  stay up. And I'm and I I said this before
• 1:12:31
  on the show. If they take it from him, I'm
• 1:12:33
  going to write his name in. I am voting for Trump.
• 1:12:38
  That's it. There is nobody.
• 1:12:41
  If he's not on the ballot, it's right in end of story.
• 1:12:43
  Yeah. If he's not on the ballot then
• 1:12:46
  I'll hope for the election process as far as I'm concerned
• 1:12:49
  is lost. I wanted to say that after 2020.
• 1:12:54
  Yeah dude no I got listen Max you can ask Apex about this.
• 1:13:00
  I got super. I'm not proud of this but like I
• 1:13:03
  had a black pill like super depressive moment after the
• 1:13:09
  after the election. So like I was I was legit
• 1:13:14
  depressed. I now I wasn't like I was like
• 1:13:20
  pulling a merge saying I'm going to commit suicide and jump off a
• 1:13:23
  building but I was pretty damn depressed after 2020.
• 1:13:30
  I was a little down. But I but I will say this
• 1:13:33
  interesting conversation between me and Schmooly that happened
• 1:13:37
  actually on January 6th. And you know, we sat down and we
• 1:13:43
  were talking and and you know how me and him are.
• 1:13:45
  We. We think really deep thoughts
• 1:13:47
  and shit. And what the conclusion that we
• 1:13:50
  came to was that Joe Biden getting in this way was the best
• 1:13:56
  thing that could happen for us. Like for our message, Yeah, that
• 1:14:01
  has proven to be more true than I ever thought it would.
• 1:14:05
  And so that is what got me, and Schmooly out of the funk of all
• 1:14:10
  that bullshit was like, OK, they're going to bring this
• 1:14:14
  fucking guy in and people are going to see what they fucking
• 1:14:17
  voted for. And wouldn't you know, it seems
• 1:14:21
  to be, I mean, you got Michael Rappaport out there saying
• 1:14:24
  you're going to vote for fucking Trump.
• 1:14:25
  I I know that. That's that.
• 1:14:27
  That's what? That's wild.
• 1:14:29
  That was fucking amazing. And listen, what what else you
• 1:14:34
  got? You got fucking people
• 1:14:35
  protesting outside his show just because he's fucking Jewish.
• 1:14:40
  What else is he supposed to fucking think, you know?
• 1:14:42
  You know what? You know what's funny too is
• 1:14:45
  like Wrap Apart was like, I'm still going to call him him Pig
• 1:14:50
  McDonald, but like, fuck it, I'll vote for him.
• 1:14:54
  I actually, I I actually respect that some somewhat.
• 1:14:59
  Right? Like, but he.
• 1:15:00
  But he admitted to the most important thing, which is like
• 1:15:04
  the economy is so fucking bad, right?
• 1:15:07
  Like, yeah, I'll vote for Pig McDonald and call him Pig Nick,
• 1:15:11
  but he got it right. Yeah, and a lot of people have
• 1:15:14
  got it, and a lot of people who don't really get it at least
• 1:15:18
  know to shut up more. The only people now pushing the
• 1:15:23
  far left shit is the actual far left, and we need to start
• 1:15:27
  treating them like the fringe minority that they are.
• 1:15:32
  Yeah, get off social media. Talk to people in real life.
• 1:15:36
  I'm telling you, there are not all of these crazy far leftists
• 1:15:40
  running around your town, I promise you.
• 1:15:44
  And if they, and if they are, it's because you live in an area
• 1:15:47
  like that. But if you get outside of that
• 1:15:48
  fucking bubble, I promise you people are not like that all
• 1:15:52
  over this country. If, if, if the people around you
• 1:15:55
  are, you likely live in a very densely populated leftist city.
• 1:15:59
  And I would recommend getting the fuck out of there.
• 1:16:02
  Yeah, actually. And thank you for saying that
• 1:16:05
  because like I've I've been talking to a lot of Republican
• 1:16:08
  friends who are very black pilled about like Colorado.
• 1:16:13
  But a a lot of them live in Denver.
• 1:16:15
  And again like, I hate to say this, but Denver has turned into
• 1:16:20
  a little mini of Los Angeles and not in a good way.
• 1:16:24
  Boulder, as I understand it. Yeah.
• 1:16:27
  Like what? Listen, if if you're, if you're,
• 1:16:30
  I'm speaking to my Colorado and Aspen's always been for the like
• 1:16:34
  the liberal elites. So yeah, you got a couple of big
• 1:16:36
  liberal cities there. Yeah, it's a lot of mountains
• 1:16:39
  too though, guys. Yeah, listen, if you're
• 1:16:43
  concerned of living in Colorado and you feel and you feel super
• 1:16:47
  black pilled, chances are you're only in Denver or Boulder or
• 1:16:51
  like Vail. You know a lot of the woke
• 1:16:54
  areas, but go up to Telluride where my uncle was fire.
• 1:17:00
  You know comma chief there for several years, still pretty
• 1:17:06
  considerable. Just go to the suburbs.
• 1:17:08
  Anywhere. Anywhere in the suburbs.
• 1:17:10
  You're not going to be this woke shit.
• 1:17:12
  Normal people aren't into it. They might talk like they are,
• 1:17:16
  but it's not like I'm telling you, man.
• 1:17:18
  Talk to people. Talk to people.
• 1:17:20
  I've been talking to people. It's like you heat the fucking
• 1:17:24
  snow up here in up upstate New York.
• 1:17:26
  The fucking the fucking hills and and mountains are fucking
• 1:17:28
  great. Yeah, yeah, yeah and and hey,
• 1:17:33
  upstate New York. I bet you it is not as much
• 1:17:35
  wokeness as New York City. What a fucking shock.
• 1:17:39
  Nope. You literally only see it in the
• 1:17:41
  major fucking cities. Fucking Buffalo, Albany,
• 1:17:46
  Syracuse, and that's it. Like you might have Trump
• 1:17:50
  country, you might have like 1 like town tranny, right.
• 1:17:54
  But like you really like. That's it.
• 1:17:57
  Great. You might have one that
• 1:17:58
  everybody knew. I'm actually friends with the
• 1:18:00
  with the town tranny and he's red.
• 1:18:07
  Yeah, yeah, that's fair. But you're you're just not going
• 1:18:12
  to see this in the real world. Like people aren't.
• 1:18:15
  People aren't into that shit People hate.
• 1:18:18
  I'll tell you the the average person I talk to here, they
• 1:18:21
  fucking hate the racist shit from both sides.
• 1:18:24
  And I'm not talking white people, OK?
• 1:18:27
  I like, I live in an area that's that's pretty well mixed.
• 1:18:31
  And I'm telling you, nobody likes that racist shit here.
• 1:18:35
  Nobody like the black people here aren't like, oh fuck,
• 1:18:38
  Whitey, They're like that's my neighbor.
• 1:18:42
  We have the same culture. We grew up.
• 1:18:45
  Yeah, each other. We're from the same socio
• 1:18:47
  economic bracket. We shared the same memes.
• 1:18:50
  We shared the same culture. How you know, and nobody likes
• 1:18:54
  go to the same concerts it was same concerts exactly.
• 1:18:58
  Listen to the same music, watch the same sports teams, right?
• 1:19:03
  You know, what's interesting is when I was going to college, I
• 1:19:08
  went to college with a lot of Hispanics, not just Cubans, but
• 1:19:13
  like a lot of actual like other Hispanic groups that are like
• 1:19:18
  from South America. And surprisingly a lot of them
• 1:19:25
  who were 20 somethings, even then, they were very, a lot of
• 1:19:28
  them were very a political. But like during the 2016
• 1:19:31
  election, I asked him out of curiosity who they liked and
• 1:19:36
  they all said Donald Trump. And I asked him why and they
• 1:19:41
  said, A, because he's a businessman and B, because he's
• 1:19:46
  right about illegal immigrants. And yeah, the the illegals that
• 1:19:51
  come in, they give us a, they give us hard working Hispanic
• 1:19:57
  immigrants who came here illegally, a bad name.
• 1:20:01
  And so we don't really want the illegal, you know, cartel
• 1:20:07
  members and drug dealers here. So that's, you know, but the
• 1:20:15
  media is never going to talk about that.
• 1:20:18
  No. So.
• 1:20:20
  And, and and that's The thing is, like the average black
• 1:20:23
  person here, if you sit there and say, yeah, white people are
• 1:20:26
  holding you down, they're just going to be like, what's wrong
• 1:20:32
  with you? Racist.
• 1:20:34
  Yeah. You know, and that's not to say
• 1:20:36
  there's no racism too. There's another thing that I
• 1:20:39
  get. I get on the right for.
• 1:20:42
  Yes, there are racist police. Yes.
• 1:20:44
  They abuse black people. I'm sorry, not sorry, but it's
• 1:20:48
  true. Yeah, and and and you.
• 1:20:51
  To say anything else, you're never going to win Those black
• 1:20:55
  voters or young black men aren't as stupid as you fucking think.
• 1:21:00
  They know they've been the target of it or somebody they
• 1:21:04
  know has. Now, I don't think it's as
• 1:21:08
  widespread as particularly the racist aspect of it, but what I
• 1:21:11
  do think is widespread is that cops by and large, have a
• 1:21:15
  disdain for the people they're policing.
• 1:21:19
  Yeah. And that includes black police
• 1:21:21
  officers. As apex.
• 1:21:25
  As apex. As apex.
• 1:21:27
  And I pointed out last year, so black police officers, it it
• 1:21:34
  doesn't matter. I, I mean, I've, I'm white.
• 1:21:37
  The officer that punched me from behind while I was in handcuffs
• 1:21:40
  was white, right. What?
• 1:21:42
  What was reasoning for it? Because I pissed him off because
• 1:21:47
  he's a petty little shit, a petty little tyrant that thinks
• 1:21:52
  if anything goes wrong or it doesn't turn out the way he
• 1:21:55
  wants, he's allowed to abuse you.
• 1:21:58
  And that's he's one of many cops that think that way and but
• 1:22:04
  there are some cops that they're they they are.
• 1:22:06
  They have racist views and then they abuse black people and that
• 1:22:10
  happens and it shouldn't. It should never happen.
• 1:22:13
  And if you don't understand why that's why so many people,
• 1:22:18
  black, black people, were out for black Lives Matter, that
• 1:22:21
  that's what they were talking about.
• 1:22:23
  They didn't care about the communist shit.
• 1:22:24
  They didn't care about the woke shit.
• 1:22:26
  They they were there because I don't want the police to
• 1:22:29
  continue to beat my ass for the and black.
• 1:22:34
  And I don't know if this is necessarily true, but like from
• 1:22:37
  what I from this is just from what I've heard.
• 1:22:41
  I could be wrong, but from what some black people have told me,
• 1:22:45
  Black Lives Matter started out with good intentions but then
• 1:22:49
  got hijacked with the communists.
• 1:22:53
  Now I've heard other people say like the my, my fight back for
• 1:22:58
  that is that's the line Literal founders are Marxists.
• 1:23:02
  Yeah. That's the line that people tell
• 1:23:03
  themselves right to to to to kind of say, oh, well, I didn't
• 1:23:09
  get fooled, right, I didn't get fooled.
• 1:23:11
  They changed. No, you got fooled because from
• 1:23:14
  the go it was a Marxist organization and a scam both of
• 1:23:18
  those things. No, no, I and and I get that.
• 1:23:21
  I'm just telling you what other people were were telling me so
• 1:23:26
  but that part's irrelevant to what I'm talking about.
• 1:23:28
  Honestly dismiss what you're saying but like what you need to
• 1:23:32
  understand on the right. You know if you want to be
• 1:23:35
  empathetic to people like if you want to win over fucking black
• 1:23:38
  votes, you need to understand the motivation for.
• 1:23:42
  I'm going to just throw out a number that's completely out of
• 1:23:45
  my ass. 90% of the people that were out there, they weren't.
• 1:23:50
  They weren't Pro Biden. They weren't fucking leftists.
• 1:23:54
  They they were. Most of them were not really
• 1:23:56
  political, but they are sick and tired of cops beating on black
• 1:24:02
  people. And I would just say that it
• 1:24:04
  should be beyond that. It should be.
• 1:24:06
  I'm sick and tired of cops beating on everybody, but I
• 1:24:09
  completely understand why they feel the way they do.
• 1:24:12
  And if you don't understand why most of those people were out
• 1:24:14
  there, they weren't out there to loot, they were not there to
• 1:24:16
  riot, they weren't out there to burn things.
• 1:24:18
  Obviously there's bad fucking actors in everything, but if you
• 1:24:21
  talk to some average black dude who is never political before
• 1:24:24
  that, never politically active, probably doesn't even fucking
• 1:24:27
  vote why he was out there, he'll tell you, hey, you know, in
• 1:24:32
  fucking 2009 they beat my brother to death.
• 1:24:37
  I've heard so many of those horror stories as a police
• 1:24:40
  accountability activist for the last fucking 25 years.
• 1:24:44
  If you had any idea how many horrible fucking stories I've
• 1:24:48
  heard gut wrenching talk to people, looked in, looked in
• 1:24:51
  parents eyes as they told me about the time the police
• 1:24:53
  murdered their child. Their child might have been 25
• 1:24:58
  years old. It's still their fucking child.
• 1:25:00
  Yeah. No, I I I hear you.
• 1:25:03
  I I am not Hear those people were out in the fucking streets.
• 1:25:06
  And if you think that they they were part of some fucking
• 1:25:08
  movement to overthrow the country or put in communism,
• 1:25:12
  yes, some of them were. But the vast majority of them
• 1:25:15
  were just like the police beating our ass.
• 1:25:18
  Enough is enough and we finally seen enough.
• 1:25:20
  Now, was George Floyd the martyr that they needed?
• 1:25:24
  Not really, obviously. We we all know that now but it
• 1:25:29
  got the attention. It got the issue because like if
• 1:25:33
  if this isn't a fucking real thing then what was Ice Ice Cube
• 1:25:37
  talking about in 1988 on Fuck the Police.
• 1:25:40
  What was Ice T talking about on his body count record he did cop
• 1:25:44
  killer I right? No.
• 1:25:48
  I I do have AI do have a question though which is like do
• 1:25:53
  any cops in the in the Police Department this is going to kind
• 1:26:01
  of sound loaded but but do any cops that you know of like agree
• 1:26:06
  with you that like yeah there there needs to be because OK
• 1:26:11
  because like I I I've because like I've been trying to look
• 1:26:17
  for cops to talk about like police reform that want to come
• 1:26:22
  on that could come on the show. And so far I haven't found any
• 1:26:27
  that would be willing to. I think I have somebody
• 1:26:29
  specifically in mind I'll try to reach out Yeah I'd love to talk
• 1:26:33
  to a cop about it because I also like as much as I wanted to get
• 1:26:38
  out the the empathy for the for the black people in this there
• 1:26:42
  is an empathy for cops too. Not every cop is abusive, and
• 1:26:47
  there's reasons for why the abuse has gotten so much worse
• 1:26:50
  over the last 25 years, one of which, no, no, even worse test
• 1:26:57
  scores. OK, they ruled in, I believe it
• 1:27:00
  was 2008, right? That scoring too high on the
• 1:27:05
  aptitude test being, you know, so they were picking the people
• 1:27:10
  who scored the best. It'd stop me if you've heard
• 1:27:12
  this one before. The people that were doing the
• 1:27:15
  best on the test used to be the ones that would get hired from
• 1:27:18
  the Academy first, right? Yep.
• 1:27:20
  They know that. That's racist.
• 1:27:23
  What? That's ridiculous.
• 1:27:26
  That's so They're not allowed. Hold on.
• 1:27:29
  If you score above a certain point now, they cannot hire you.
• 1:27:37
  It's, it's ridiculous. But I also believe it completely
• 1:27:40
  they cannot hire you. And so I guess quotas is kind of
• 1:27:43
  true in that regard, right? There's a there's a racial
• 1:27:46
  quota. And I just don't think that that
• 1:27:50
  makes for great policing. You know, it does make sense to
• 1:27:52
  have black cops in a black neighborhood.
• 1:27:54
  OK, I I I think there should be more of that.
• 1:27:58
  There's a reason that there's not, though.
• 1:28:01
  Think about the black community's opinion of police.
• 1:28:03
  By and large, do you, how many of them do you think want to be
• 1:28:06
  cops? Do you want to put up with the
• 1:28:08
  shit from your community for doing that?
• 1:28:11
  Is it? No Or your own family?
• 1:28:13
  Yeah, your own family. No, they don't want to be
• 1:28:16
  fucking cops. Listen listen, even here in
• 1:28:19
  Florida, I I have a black friend who wants to be a cop, but he's
• 1:28:23
  afraid to tell his, he's afraid to tell his parents.
• 1:28:29
  Because most of the guys, most of the black guys who would be
• 1:28:36
  best suited to be police actually end up joining the
• 1:28:40
  military instead. Yeah, because that doesn't get
• 1:28:44
  looked down on the way policing does.
• 1:28:46
  Yeah. No, I I I I know that for a fact
• 1:28:51
  based on some of the black guys I I went to high school with and
• 1:28:54
  they wanted to be cop. But instead of becoming cops,
• 1:28:59
  they went into the military. And now I'm and I'm saying that
• 1:29:03
  that y'all better vote for Trump because Nikki Haley wants to
• 1:29:07
  send them off to another desert war.
• 1:29:13
  But that's another topic. And why doesn't she fight the
• 1:29:17
  war? Why do we always send the poor?
• 1:29:22
  Why do we always send the poor? Because they're expendable.
• 1:29:28
  I think it's it's if it's a rhetorical question, wasn't it?
• 1:29:32
  You all know votes to send people to war should be going
• 1:29:34
  themselves. Yeah, yeah, we know.
• 1:29:37
  We know why they only send the poor.
• 1:29:42
  Everybody knows it. That's why.
• 1:29:43
  That's why it's a rhetorical question, you know?
• 1:29:46
  Yeah. Why is it the poor?
• 1:29:48
  Why is it, you know John McCain never sent any of his kids to
• 1:29:52
  die? Well, but Max, John McCain was a
• 1:30:00
  POW and and a genocidal maniac. Yes.
• 1:30:06
  But PO him rotten. Yes.
• 1:30:08
  But PO but PO No. I I agree with you, but but
• 1:30:12
  whenever. But whenever I but whenever I
• 1:30:14
  say any of that about treasonous traitor who worked for the
• 1:30:17
  fucking Vietcong. If we want to talk about it, can
• 1:30:20
  we talk about Tokyo Rose? That was that was Jane.
• 1:30:28
  No, that was John McCain. Dude, you don't know.
• 1:30:31
  You haven't heard the John McCain tape?
• 1:30:33
  No, I no, I've. I've heard the John McCain
• 1:30:35
  tapes. But to be fair, Jane, what's her
• 1:30:39
  face? The the the chick that was
• 1:30:41
  married to Ted Turner. Yeah.
• 1:30:43
  Jane Fonda. Yeah.
• 1:30:46
  No, I I I hold contempt against John McCain.
• 1:30:49
  And Jane Fonda equal John McCain's worse.
• 1:30:55
  John John McCain did active propaganda for the enemy while a
• 1:30:59
  POW. That's treason.
• 1:31:01
  He should have been put to death 100%, but instead we made him a
• 1:31:06
  senator and act like he's the bastion of fucking conservatism
• 1:31:10
  as he gets us into war after war after war.
• 1:31:13
  What? What?
• 1:31:15
  Listen, I I taught her too, by the way.
• 1:31:18
  She probably could use a good fuck being that she's a pretend
• 1:31:20
  lesbian. Listen, I listen.
• 1:31:25
  I knew he was going to lose to Obama.
• 1:31:28
  I think I need a beer. Hold on, I'll be right back.
• 1:31:33
  Yeah. First time I ever drank on this
• 1:31:35
  show. But I think after that
• 1:31:36
  statement, I should probably step away and go get a beer.
• 1:31:41
  Yeah. So, Morpheus, how is your
• 1:31:44
  evening going? Pretty good.
• 1:31:49
  Also drinking Nice. What?
• 1:31:53
  I'm having a yingling. What are what are you having?
• 1:31:58
  Do you still don't know on the rocks?
• 1:32:01
  Nice. Let's see.
• 1:32:06
  So far in chat we have resisted one saying happy birthday and
• 1:32:13
  then another one says and then he also says true.
• 1:32:20
  I think that's in regards to what I was saying about Vivek
• 1:32:26
  earlier. But anyway, live in the old high
• 1:32:35
  life. Hey high, hey, high life is OK
• 1:32:43
  in my book. As far as cheap domestics, it's
• 1:32:46
  like the only one I really get. I mean, Yuengling is like,
• 1:32:53
  Yuengling is the cheap beer here that isn't like Budweiser, and
• 1:32:57
  that actually it's cheap. Actually, it's like the same
• 1:33:00
  price as Budweiser, honestly. And it's a little bit better
• 1:33:04
  here. So yeah, be completely honest.
• 1:33:10
  My fucking granddad drank this. My, my, my merchandise.
• 1:33:16
  I think that had an effect. My my Step dad drinks Miller
• 1:33:20
  High Life. He had, he had a really cool,
• 1:33:23
  like, neon bar sign. It was a Miller High Life and it
• 1:33:26
  had a guy fishing and like it the the, the neon would light up
• 1:33:31
  with him like casting the fishing pole.
• 1:33:35
  I'll actually be right back. I'm going to go grab a beer.
• 1:33:41
  Oh God, this is going to get out of control.
• 1:33:44
  Run, Sam. Run.
• 1:33:47
  I I would. I would if I could.
• 1:33:49
  But you know, shit that now is now.
• 1:33:54
  Smalley is going to catch me walking to get up here.
• 1:33:58
  So damn it, you did it again. Held on yourself.
• 1:34:03
  Son of a bitch. Smalley.
• 1:34:06
  I I know. So I'll be right back.
• 1:34:13
  Try not to say anything too mean about me.
• 1:34:18
  Yeah. No, no.
• 1:34:19
  If we won't say anything about you, but, you know, you'll come
• 1:34:22
  back and then the channel will be banned.
• 1:34:25
  Oh, he turned himself off. We're we're we're on Rumble.
• 1:34:29
  So, you know, and X. Yeah, there we go.
• 1:34:39
  We're on Twitter's. It's still Twitter.
• 1:34:42
  It's Twitter.com. I use it on desktop, so it's
• 1:34:46
  Twitter.com. So you can't.
• 1:34:48
  I don't care that you say it's X, it's not x.com.
• 1:34:52
  I also use Twitter.com on desktop.
• 1:34:54
  That's right. Yeah, me.
• 1:34:56
  And more than it's like, you know, Sam was, you know, a
• 1:34:58
  little late tonight and we were just sitting there fucking
• 1:35:01
  jamming out to some fucking music instead of being on the
• 1:35:09
  show. OK, because Sam's on cripple
• 1:35:12
  time. That's right.
• 1:35:15
  Well, crippled crippled people time is like colored people time
• 1:35:18
  only like you have an excuse. Oh no, I don't know, after my
• 1:35:25
  anti racism rant and then I made a racist joke, Oh God, I'm going
• 1:35:29
  to get cancelled by both sides at once.
• 1:35:32
  Well, crippled, crippled people. Time kind of makes sense because
• 1:35:38
  we're fucking slow. Yeah.
• 1:35:42
  You know what was an interesting caucus?
• 1:35:46
  What did you think? You didn't really have that
• 1:35:48
  much. What do you think about the Iowa
• 1:35:50
  caucus results? Were you shocked?
• 1:35:52
  What wasn't really shocked? What I what I found funny is
• 1:35:55
  some DeSantis guy was ranting and raving.
• 1:35:59
  Raving that trouble only got 50% of the Republican vote when
• 1:36:05
  again, he was a DeSantis guy. So I'm like, OK, if our guy got
• 1:36:08
  50% of the vote and he he was saying half of the Republicans
• 1:36:15
  don't want Trump, then how about 80% of your 80% of Republicans
• 1:36:20
  don't want your guy. So who's better off?
• 1:36:25
  Well, and and also they act like that means anything.
• 1:36:29
  As if most DeSantis and Nikki Haley voters and then Negateley
• 1:36:34
  might be a little different and we could get into why after, but
• 1:36:36
  like just theoretically, right, that they're not going to vote
• 1:36:39
  for Trump if he wins, right. Give me a break.
• 1:36:43
  Especially the DeSantis people. They're going to vote for Trump.
• 1:36:46
  They're not going to like it. And I'll tell you that the
• 1:36:49
  fucking tantrums they've been having, man.
• 1:36:53
  DeSantis. Dumors, bro.
• 1:36:55
  Guys, you sound like Bernie Bros OK, chill out.
• 1:37:03
  Relax. You knew Trump was winning.
• 1:37:09
  You know, I know you wanted to pretend it wasn't going to
• 1:37:11
  happen and that you were just going to come and take those
• 1:37:14
  caucuses over baby and Nikki Haley.
• 1:37:17
  And no, like, Trump's winning this primary and he's going to
• 1:37:21
  do it handily. And you need to fucking accept
• 1:37:23
  that. And if you want to continue to
• 1:37:25
  spend hundreds of millions of dollars between these multiple
• 1:37:28
  candidates to fucking do it. All you're doing is bilking GOP
• 1:37:34
  donors because you're wasting their fucking money.
• 1:37:39
  I I would argue that the DeSantis campaign at this point
• 1:37:42
  is a scam because he hasn't dropped out and he has no chance
• 1:37:47
  of winning New Hampshire. I I would agree.
• 1:37:50
  And I I would say the same thing about Nikki Haley.
• 1:37:53
  But we all know why she's there. She's she's not in it as a scam,
• 1:37:58
  right? She's not even bilking
• 1:37:59
  Republican donors. She's bilking Democrats.
• 1:38:02
  Exactly. And actually, the thing that I
• 1:38:05
  heard a little bit before and then after the caucus is
• 1:38:10
  literally Democrats were registering as fucking
• 1:38:14
  Republicans just so they could fucking vote for her.
• 1:38:19
  Yeah. And and in new in New Hampshire,
• 1:38:21
  she'll probably even do better because it's in open primary,
• 1:38:26
  and since there's no Democrat primary, all the Democrats are
• 1:38:30
  just going to vote in the Republican primary.
• 1:38:31
  That's how it works there. It's like that here too.
• 1:38:35
  But Massachusetts doesn't really matter in a primary.
• 1:38:38
  The only reason New Hampshire doesn't technically either,
• 1:38:41
  because the amount of delegates is useless.
• 1:38:44
  It's just 'cause they're the first actual primary is why
• 1:38:47
  anybody cares. It's a momentum thing, but it
• 1:38:50
  actually like winning New Hampshire is not going to win
• 1:38:53
  you the primary. Yeah.
• 1:38:57
  And and and New York will never matter unless somehow we ever go
• 1:39:00
  fucking red, which will never happen because it matters in a
• 1:39:03
  primary. Yeah, but right.
• 1:39:06
  Lake City. Yeah, but whoever, you know.
• 1:39:08
  But you guys vote so far last, right?
• 1:39:12
  Yeah, our Republican primary. It could theoretically be swung
• 1:39:16
  by New York, but by that point it's all going to be wrapped up
• 1:39:19
  anyway. And again, and it's the same in
• 1:39:23
  Massachusetts. We're one of the later states.
• 1:39:26
  So it is what it is. You can, you know, you can get
• 1:39:31
  mad and and think, oh, you know, it should be done in a better
• 1:39:35
  fashion. Like, maybe we should do some
• 1:39:38
  because Iowa actually doesn't really matter in terms of
• 1:39:40
  delegate count either. Again, it's just an early
• 1:39:43
  momentum thing. And I guess that's probably why
• 1:39:47
  DeSantis DeSantis thinks he's going to stay until Super
• 1:39:50
  Tuesday. But here's the thing.
• 1:39:52
  Here's the thing. I hate to clue you in, DeSantis
• 1:39:54
  Dumors, but he's going to lose Florida.
• 1:39:56
  Oh yeah, absolutely. And if you, if you lose your
• 1:39:59
  home state, that's the end of your fucking career.
• 1:40:05
  Mitt Romney lost his home state in the general election, you
• 1:40:10
  know, And OK, yeah, he has a career, but he's also a joke,
• 1:40:14
  right? And that's what you'll be,
• 1:40:16
  DeSantis. You'll be a you'll be Mitt
• 1:40:17
  Romney. He's going to joke since that
• 1:40:19
  fucking scream. Oh, God, he's been a joke since
• 1:40:24
  binders full of women. Yeah.
• 1:40:29
  Yeah. It's it's interesting watching
• 1:40:31
  it play out. I mean, obviously they're all
• 1:40:34
  banking on Trump getting arrested.
• 1:40:36
  Like, that's why they're actually staying in.
• 1:40:39
  And that makes them scum. Absolutely.
• 1:40:43
  Because. Because here's the thing, you
• 1:40:44
  don't need them to stay in. If something happens and we have
• 1:40:50
  a brokered convention where they have to pick at the convention
• 1:40:53
  the candidate. I'm not, I'm not saying I think
• 1:40:57
  that's even going to happen, but if that were because I think
• 1:40:59
  Trump's going all the way. But if that were to happen, a
• 1:41:02
  brokered convention, they just pick somebody.
• 1:41:06
  So it doesn't matter if you drop out now or stay in, but they're
• 1:41:11
  staying in on the hopes that he's out and they'll be like,
• 1:41:15
  ah, well, you should pick the number two guy.
• 1:41:19
  But the other thing is that the difference between DeSantis and
• 1:41:23
  Nikki Haley was less than 1%. So.
• 1:41:24
  But they're both the number two guy.
• 1:41:26
  And in in Nikki Haley's case, I emphasize guy, she's she's she's
• 1:41:35
  a handsome woman, isn't she? It's it's her turn, God damn it.
• 1:41:44
  And I will maintain that until she drops out, because that's
• 1:41:48
  the attitude I get from her campaign.
• 1:41:50
  It's her turn. Yeah.
• 1:41:52
  Yeah, it's it's Hillary. Two point.
• 1:41:54
  I I saw a meme earlier. I put it in my gilded server.
• 1:41:58
  Cheap pop for that, where they kind of photoshopped Haley into
• 1:42:02
  It was Trump that actually boasted it.
• 1:42:04
  They Photoshopped Haley to look like Hillary, and they made a
• 1:42:07
  Haley logo that looks exactly like Hillary's old logo.
• 1:42:11
  I I was fucking laughing hard. Trump is a meme master.
• 1:42:15
  Oh absolutely. It's like the only boomer that
• 1:42:18
  I'll say that about too. We we we need 2016 me Magic
• 1:42:22
  back. Yeah.
• 1:42:24
  It's been. I'm feeling the magic, man.
• 1:42:26
  Oh that's absolutely. But they they did everything
• 1:42:28
  they fucking could back in 2020 to fucking kill that shit.
• 1:42:31
  Like I I I was already feeling it.
• 1:42:33
  That's why I've had this up for years.
• 1:42:35
  But I I tell you after Iowa, I'm like, let's fucking go, baby.
• 1:42:39
  Ain't no brakes baby. Trump Train and and and they can
• 1:42:45
  get mad about it, but they ain't going to fucking.
• 1:42:49
  Look. The train's got no brakes, so
• 1:42:52
  we're either getting to our destination or fucking crashing
• 1:42:55
  in a fiery fucking inferno. But the Trump Train is not
• 1:42:59
  stopping. Hell no.
• 1:43:02
  Even even my friend Luke, who was on the DeSantis wagon, is
• 1:43:09
  now on the Trump Train. Nice.
• 1:43:12
  That's what I mean. A lot of reason we have picked
• 1:43:16
  on the DeSantis Dumors a lot just now.
• 1:43:20
  But the reasonable DeSantis people they know he should have
• 1:43:23
  dropped out the other night. They know it.
• 1:43:26
  You you actually made a you actually made a good impression
• 1:43:30
  on on him Max because like and and look I I kind of like I
• 1:43:38
  understand why he didn't why he didn't like Trump because he had
• 1:43:41
  to deal with like some of the really obnoxious like maga like
• 1:43:46
  I hate I hate to use this term but it's true Maga tards maga
• 1:43:51
  boomers can be really tiresome and and yeah because he's in the
• 1:43:57
  trenches he deals with a lot of them.
• 1:43:59
  I guarantee it. Oh yeah annoying ones.
• 1:44:02
  Yeah. I know because he's he's told me
• 1:44:05
  but like, but but even but even like, but even when I was
• 1:44:09
  talking to him tonight when he called me for my birthday and I
• 1:44:12
  was like, so like I was still expecting to be on the DeSantis
• 1:44:17
  train And he's like, he's like, yeah.
• 1:44:19
  DeSantis came in second. Is that really good.
• 1:44:23
  Good though Like he was kind of dogging on DeSantis bit.
• 1:44:27
  So no, no. He's a he's a smart guy.
• 1:44:32
  I was glad you brought him on. He made some arguments that I
• 1:44:35
  hadn't heard before particularly about term limits.
• 1:44:38
  And I tend to agree with him on. Yeah.
• 1:44:42
  Yeah. It we've.
• 1:44:43
  You know what I've met a lot of really interesting people.
• 1:44:46
  And it's funny because every time it ends up being like, oh,
• 1:44:51
  you're probably going to disagree with this guy and we
• 1:44:55
  get along great. It's yeah, like I say, I try to
• 1:44:59
  meet people where they're at. I can be an antagonistic
• 1:45:02
  asshole, you know, Obviously I'm good at it.
• 1:45:06
  But the but the thing I think a lot of the people I fuck with
• 1:45:09
  don't understand about me is that I'm always the babyface,
• 1:45:13
  whatever I'm doing. And that's not me saying, oh you
• 1:45:18
  know, it's like pre scripted or whatever.
• 1:45:20
  If you ask the audience at the time, I'm not the bad guy.
• 1:45:29
  No, listen, I mean, I had that. I had that this week.
• 1:45:33
  I mean, I was, for those who don't know, I was honestly
• 1:45:36
  surprised that Steve Stratton kind of agreed to come on on my
• 1:45:41
  show because before he went Indy, he was like kind of a big
• 1:45:45
  name with with Delta Force Publishing, which was I've read
• 1:45:50
  his books before any of that. I was actually like, that's why
• 1:45:54
  I said he's an American. And here's a here's a
• 1:45:56
  difference, just for anybody. If you don't know who Steve is
• 1:46:00
  and you don't know who our Boomer friend is, secret agent
• 1:46:03
  man, the reason that I'll show respect to one and not the other
• 1:46:07
  is that it's obvious, OK, Steve is a known person.
• 1:46:11
  You can look up his history. Yeah.
• 1:46:16
  You don't. He doesn't have to tell me.
• 1:46:18
  I can't tell you that in fact he said a lot of shit that if you
• 1:46:23
  were the the the fake boomer you would pretend you can't say that
• 1:46:27
  right. No.
• 1:46:29
  And there's very little he's NDA D about I'm sure.
• 1:46:32
  And and and by the way that includes working at the fucking
• 1:46:34
  White House. I guarantee you he's not NDA D
• 1:46:36
  about most of it and and look just so people know beforehand I
• 1:46:42
  asked him you know hey I said hey if there's anything that we
• 1:46:47
  can't talk about let me know And he said he said everything is
• 1:46:51
  pretty much everything. I think you're going to ask me
• 1:46:53
  is is on the table what was what was funny is I is it wasn't Eric
• 1:47:01
  but Eric it wasn't Eric Bishop although Eric's a good friend of
• 1:47:05
  Steve but it was one of the mutuals that Eric and I know
• 1:47:08
  that was like hey you should get Steve on your podcast.
• 1:47:11
  And I often knew of Steve but I I was kind of like why would a
• 1:47:16
  big why would a big named guy like Steve want to come on my
• 1:47:20
  little old podcast. But and outside of being an
• 1:47:24
  author like a person of interest is him He's like a yeah he's had
• 1:47:28
  a very interesting life if you've read anything about him
• 1:47:31
  but but I'm actually like man I I hope he comes back so I have
• 1:47:35
  the chance to ask him a few questions.
• 1:47:37
  No. I mean I I.
• 1:47:39
  You did perfect. That was a wonderful interview
• 1:47:42
  he actually, he actually said that he wants to come back at
• 1:47:46
  some point so and then and then after when I followed him on
• 1:47:51
  Twitter and he followed me back I had like six other somewhat
• 1:47:55
  big name authors follow me too. So like yeah it's pretty cool.
• 1:48:01
  Our reach is extending by just being ourselves which is
• 1:48:04
  awesome. Best way to yeah, but but you
• 1:48:09
  know, Merch said I would never amount into the stutter beyond
• 1:48:13
  the stuttering. How many best selling authors
• 1:48:17
  has he fucking interviewed? Well he's he's interviewed Teddy
• 1:48:23
  Hart and Ben in a Peacock dog. Yeah.
• 1:48:27
  Oh, he interviewed A notorious criminal drug addict,
• 1:48:31
  potentially murderer. Great.
• 1:48:33
  Good job. Also, female cop, female cop,
• 1:48:41
  female cop. Fence was shot the dog.
• 1:48:48
  So Oh my God. Mersh.
• 1:48:54
  You see Mersh got his head shaved finally after everybody's
• 1:48:59
  been telling him to. I I haven't.
• 1:49:03
  He still wearing a hat. I I haven't seen it but people
• 1:49:11
  were. But people were like do you like
• 1:49:12
  me? And I'm like, it's my birthday
• 1:49:15
  do I really want to look at Merchants fat face on my on my
• 1:49:18
  birthday. So, yeah, no, but maybe just the
• 1:49:24
  top of his bald head. Oh, right.
• 1:49:31
  Well, I'm balding. I'm balding.
• 1:49:33
  Oh, everybody says I'm balding. I love it.
• 1:49:35
  But one of our fans was like, you got a giant forehead.
• 1:49:38
  That's the right answer. Yeah.
• 1:49:41
  I'm just a Neanderthal mother like this.
• 1:49:43
  I have. I don't.
• 1:49:46
  I'm 40. I don't have a single Gray.
• 1:49:48
  At least I got them in. No, I've never lost any hair.
• 1:49:53
  I've had the same hairline since I was 18.
• 1:49:55
  I'm just a big ass dude. Yeah, look like a fucking
• 1:49:59
  caveman. It is what it is.
• 1:50:04
  Like I'm just that guy. I look, I'm not a respectable
• 1:50:08
  guy. I like I'm not a grub smash.
• 1:50:11
  I'm not that buttoned up fucking, you know, suited guy.
• 1:50:15
  And then in fact I think that's why the dynamic with me and Sam
• 1:50:18
  works, because he is a buttoned up guy.
• 1:50:20
  You know to some degree. Yeah.
• 1:50:22
  I mean I I am what I come from. I come from the fucking ghetto.
• 1:50:26
  I come from rock'n'roll. I come from like you know I'm.
• 1:50:31
  I'm a dirtbag. Sure.
• 1:50:33
  You know I'm. I mean I I mean I'm but I may be
• 1:50:37
  buttoned up but my but my grandfather also you know he I
• 1:50:43
  know it sounds cliche but like I was raised to treat the janitor
• 1:50:48
  the same way you would treat the CEO I I know that phrase kind of
• 1:50:52
  seems cliche now but it it's really not and look that's the
• 1:50:58
  truth. I I'm like, look I was similar
• 1:51:04
  to you like Max like IA whole bunch of follows like after my
• 1:51:09
  interview with Steve. What?
• 1:51:10
  And I was just like wow. Like who would have thought
• 1:51:15
  that, you know like I don't want to get too emotional here but
• 1:51:19
  like when I was born, I was expected to be a vegetable.
• 1:51:26
  My probably not make it to 29. Right.
• 1:51:31
  Yeah. And so like the fact that I've
• 1:51:33
  not only like made it, but like, yeah, not but like finding
• 1:51:40
  respect from from your peers and I say your peers because you're
• 1:51:43
  an author too. Yeah, like and and and in like
• 1:51:50
  and in podcasting too, like kind of being like one of the OG
• 1:51:53
  guys. Like that's like like it's it's
• 1:51:58
  very, it's kind of surreal almost.
• 1:52:01
  Sometimes it's crazy, like adding Morpheus makes it even
• 1:52:05
  crazier. But just between us, we have
• 1:52:07
  like close to 40 years of podcasting experience or or
• 1:52:12
  Radio One or the other. Yeah, we're probably closer to
• 1:52:17
  50. Yeah.
• 1:52:20
  It's it's weird how it all how it all came about.
• 1:52:27
  So which I'm which I'm glad he's here because you know it makes a
• 1:52:33
  great little dynamic like I always say three people's a good
• 1:52:36
  size for this kind of show. Obviously you always get one
• 1:52:40
  dominant person and and unfortunately that's me.
• 1:52:42
  I'm sorry. No, no, it's I I kind of, I kind
• 1:52:48
  of enjoy it, honestly, even though it's my show, that
• 1:52:55
  probably makes it a lot easier. Well, listen at at this point
• 1:53:00
  too, like, I feel like I've, I've been doing it for so many
• 1:53:03
  years. Like people have already heard
• 1:53:05
  my voice, right. So I mean, not that people.
• 1:53:11
  I like to think I brought a different perspective.
• 1:53:13
  Yeah, no. And you've no disrespect to Apex
• 1:53:17
  because I love the perspective he brought to the show.
• 1:53:19
  Now that I've see 'cause I didn't, I wasn't familiar.
• 1:53:22
  But now that I've gone back and listened to some and I've been
• 1:53:25
  doing, you know I've been going through a lot of my old content,
• 1:53:29
  your old content trying to trying to get together archives
• 1:53:35
  for right to offend media which is you know the kind of the the
• 1:53:40
  name of like the you know group I'm representing I suppose in
• 1:53:45
  terms of yeah, it's it's a you know podcasting consulting
• 1:53:49
  company. I guess it's not it's not
• 1:53:52
  official but at one at some point folks for people who are
• 1:53:57
  asking I'm I'm going to retire the next Gen. conserved media
• 1:54:01
  brand because let's face it, I'm almost 30.
• 1:54:05
  I'm no longer the next Gen. right?
• 1:54:09
  I am know. You know what you have to do.
• 1:54:11
  You have to pass it on. You have to pass.
• 1:54:15
  You have to find a young guy. The next Gen.
• 1:54:18
  I well, I can't pass it to Shmuley because he's kind as
• 1:54:22
  much as I I mean I love Shmuley but he I consider more of a peer
• 1:54:26
  than I do like yeah, Shmuley is you know as as me and Shmuley is
• 1:54:34
  right to offend me. Now you it's me you and Shmuley.
• 1:54:37
  Now we did, we did used to have another third partner.
• 1:54:40
  Unfortunately we've parted ways, but you know everything you've
• 1:54:45
  worked out because the time we parted ways literally I met Sam
• 1:54:50
  like right before that. And then shortly after that he
• 1:54:55
  he got into the situation where he needed a Co host and a little
• 1:55:00
  inside baseball for everybody. The initial pitch that I gave
• 1:55:03
  him wasn't me, it was the guys right?
• 1:55:08
  Right. To offend media like we'll have
• 1:55:10
  people sit in so that there's always somebody there.
• 1:55:13
  It just so happened that I have a lot of fun doing it and then
• 1:55:17
  get along great but shout out to shout outs to Johnny Fox too by
• 1:55:23
  the way. Seriously, never would I have
• 1:55:27
  thought that that a rant about some guy that you that you know,
• 1:55:34
  like you were, to be clear back, I don't mean this as an insult,
• 1:55:38
  but when I had Johnny Fox on my show and he started ranting at
• 1:55:43
  you, it was so weird to me that he was that he went on this
• 1:55:47
  whole big rant at how evil you are because you were like a no,
• 1:55:52
  you were like a nobody. But he ran to just enough that I
• 1:55:55
  was curious as to who you were. And I was like, oh, I actually
• 1:56:02
  like, yeah, this guy kind of has the same dark sense of humor
• 1:56:05
  that I do. And like, I heard this.
• 1:56:10
  I thought I was too much, right? I hadn't heard the the APEC
• 1:56:15
  shit. And I realized that I'm
• 1:56:17
  actually, I'm actually more moderate than him at his worst.
• 1:56:22
  And I I really don't want to pick on him.
• 1:56:24
  But like he he was in a dark place at that time.
• 1:56:28
  But showing the comparison with me, I'm like, oh, I'm actually
• 1:56:32
  kind of toned down, you know what I mean?
• 1:56:35
  Because I'm not, you know, in that kind of headspace.
• 1:56:39
  And he's not anymore by the way, I I shout out to Apex.
• 1:56:43
  He's the greatest. We'd love to have him.
• 1:56:46
  Apex, if you're hearing my voice right now, live, please get in
• 1:56:51
  touch. We'll we'll we'll have you on.
• 1:56:52
  It's Sam's birthplate. Yeah.
• 1:56:55
  Apex, if you're on, please like tag me in something and I'll
• 1:56:59
  send you the DM. So to and the reason I just want
• 1:57:04
  to also say for Apex, the reason that he's not doing any content
• 1:57:09
  consistently is because he doesn't want to.
• 1:57:12
  You know, it's he's not he's not in a place where it's, you know,
• 1:57:16
  a primary concern of his and he's feeling good.
• 1:57:20
  And so like, I, you know. Yeah.
• 1:57:23
  And and he's also told me that he and I don't think he would
• 1:57:27
  mind me sharing this if if he spends too much time online it
• 1:57:34
  kind of he gets back into some bad habits.
• 1:57:38
  So yeah you know I don't I don't fault him for that.
• 1:57:45
  So no mental. Mental you know health is
• 1:57:49
  really, really important. And anything that as a detriment
• 1:57:53
  to his, he doesn't need to to to bring into his life.
• 1:57:56
  That's what I say for him. Like arguing about politics is
• 1:58:00
  so far down in importance and I think people have it backwards.
• 1:58:05
  They think it's the most important thing.
• 1:58:07
  But like, let me let me put it like this.
• 1:58:10
  If you live under the Mao regime in China, you can still have a
• 1:58:14
  good life. Yeah.
• 1:58:18
  You know what I mean? It's it's it's all relative
• 1:58:21
  right. And and it comes from a from
• 1:58:24
  from a personal place. So you know I have a fairly good
• 1:58:29
  life here. I guess that's maybe why I'm in
• 1:58:31
  a better headspace than some other people.
• 1:58:34
  But, you know, it's obviously it's tougher when the economy
• 1:58:38
  sucks. And I got, you know, it's really
• 1:58:41
  depressing is how many people are are falling into mental
• 1:58:44
  health crises and getting onto drugs and dying of overdoses and
• 1:58:50
  suicides and it's fucking God. Those are things I can't even
• 1:58:53
  say on YouTube anymore. It's good we're off of there
• 1:58:57
  because there's so many things you can't say now that are like,
• 1:59:02
  like they do you ever watch modern YouTube true crime.
• 1:59:08
  Yeah. And they can't say kill so many
• 1:59:11
  euphemisms. Yeah.
• 1:59:14
  It's terrible. UN alive.
• 1:59:17
  Yeah, they they dispatched of this person and it's like, jeez,
• 1:59:21
  come on dude. Or SASA is my favorite one.
• 1:59:25
  Look, here's the thing about that particular thing, to make a
• 1:59:30
  euphemism for it. Softer language defeats the
• 1:59:34
  purpose of the word. Rape is supposed to be a word
• 1:59:38
  that's not fun. I didn't.
• 1:59:41
  I I actually had to look up what essay was because it was just
• 1:59:47
  like, and then I was like, what? They're they're censoring.
• 1:59:53
  And that's another thing. I I know that you wanted to
• 1:59:56
  dream about this, but when you told me about this, I was a
• 1:59:58
  little kind of like, I rolled my eyes.
• 2:00:02
  I guess people are getting upset about like some, I don't know
• 2:00:06
  who the guy was, basically. Some rock'n'roll guy who I guess
• 2:00:14
  made like a song on cutting and now people are no, no, no.
• 2:00:18
  OK, OK, hold on. It's not even a song about
• 2:00:20
  cutting. OK, so it's Machine Gun Kelly.
• 2:00:22
  You might have heard of him because you're a wrestling fan.
• 2:00:25
  He's been involved with their shit times.
• 2:00:27
  I think you walked John Cena to the ring at one point.
• 2:00:31
  Machine Gun Kelly is like an emo guy, right?
• 2:00:34
  Emo music. And he made a guitar and the
• 2:00:39
  guitars is with Schechter, who's a really great guitar man.
• 2:00:43
  One of the best guitar man, yeah, yeah.
• 2:00:46
  It's not his first or even second or third signature
• 2:00:49
  guitar. He's had quite a few and he's
• 2:00:52
  worked with them for years. And the the guitar design, it is
• 2:00:56
  a razor blade. It looks it's not I'm a it's
• 2:01:00
  tough because I'm I'm defending his art.
• 2:01:03
  But also, it's ugly. It's ugly.
• 2:01:06
  It's a bad guitar. It's a bad shape for a guitar.
• 2:01:09
  I would never be caught dead using it.
• 2:01:12
  It looks stupid. But what people are upset about
• 2:01:16
  is that it looks it's shaped like a razor blade.
• 2:01:19
  And I guess the well the emo scene is known for like cutting
• 2:01:23
  in suicide. And so it's bad that he used
• 2:01:26
  that imagery. Fuck you fuck.
• 2:01:29
  I hate you motherfuckers are going to make me defend Machine
• 2:01:34
  Gun Kelly. Really.
• 2:01:38
  That's what didn't defend NPR Kelly.
• 2:01:40
  But I have to here. I hate that doctor.
• 2:01:43
  Yeah, like you're going to make him spend one of the worst
• 2:01:47
  artists I can think of, but I'm going to defend him.
• 2:01:52
  Yeah, it's it's his art. And here's The funny thing, Sam,
• 2:01:58
  I when I told you about this, I was missing a piece of context
• 2:02:02
  that I now have. Would you like to hear why he
• 2:02:06
  has a razor blade guitar. I would because like I I I can
• 2:02:12
  maybe guess. I want you to take a guess and
• 2:02:15
  then I'm going to tell you the reason and you're going to be
• 2:02:17
  like really I well, if he's like from the emo, if if I had to
• 2:02:25
  guess, I would assume that because he's part of the emo
• 2:02:28
  seem it's he's like doing something that like cutting for
• 2:02:32
  the emo scene or something like that.
• 2:02:34
  And that's what people seem to think.
• 2:02:35
  Yep. Morpheus, you had something to
• 2:02:37
  say. Yeah.
• 2:02:40
  My guess is he he probably attempted at some point and it's
• 2:02:43
  his reminder to be like dude, don't fucking go back there,
• 2:02:47
  man. You guys are going to laugh at
• 2:02:49
  how far off the mark you are. So Machine Gun Kelly did an
• 2:02:52
  interview and he said the reason for the razor, the reason he
• 2:02:56
  uses that imagery so often, is because one of his ways to cope
• 2:03:02
  with mental stress and and and mental health problems is
• 2:03:08
  shaving his face when he's really down.
• 2:03:13
  He shaves his face to get control over his life because
• 2:03:17
  it's something he can control. That's why he uses the razor
• 2:03:22
  blade imagery. Wow.
• 2:03:27
  So all these people, all these people saying that he has these,
• 2:03:30
  oh, he's got bad intentions, he's he's promoting tools of
• 2:03:35
  suicide to minors. Da da da da da da da da.
• 2:03:38
  Never took the fucking time to ask the guy or listen to his
• 2:03:43
  music. Because here's the interesting
• 2:03:45
  part, he says it in his music too.
• 2:03:49
  He's done songs where he's mentioned the fact that shaving
• 2:03:52
  his face is, is it's his moment of peace, right.
• 2:03:56
  It's a moment of control. I mean, I mean shaving is like
• 2:04:03
  men's hygiene that, I mean that's what they were originally
• 2:04:06
  made for. So yeah, I mean it makes sense,
• 2:04:10
  right? And and it's a it's a way for
• 2:04:12
  him to take control over something when he feels that
• 2:04:16
  he's not in control. And I I hate to break it to you
• 2:04:21
  all I I get you could say, well he's a super rich fucking
• 2:04:24
  celebrity. It's real easy for them to feel
• 2:04:27
  like they're not in control of anything because if somebody
• 2:04:30
  like Machine Gun Kelly is going to be under such specific
• 2:04:33
  contract restrictions and rules that it might, he might as well
• 2:04:38
  not be in control of his own life celebrity.
• 2:04:42
  I and I hate to say this too. I I feel like I am qualified to
• 2:04:48
  say this because like I have met a few celebrities, even if
• 2:04:53
  they're like more minor celebrities.
• 2:04:54
  But celebrities are people too. And I think people forget about
• 2:05:00
  that sometimes. Max.
• 2:05:02
  I'm sure, I'm sure you and I have talked about that because
• 2:05:05
  we we both have met some famous people and people forget that
• 2:05:10
  they're people. Forget that they're people too,
• 2:05:13
  sometimes. A lot of the time actually.
• 2:05:17
  Well, you know, I mentioned it and I and I can't tell you how
• 2:05:20
  many but I that I've met that have appreciated not being
• 2:05:25
  treated like they're famous. They want to be treated as like
• 2:05:27
  everybody else. Give them respect.
• 2:05:29
  You get respect back and obviously be genuine with it.
• 2:05:34
  But there's there's exceptions. There are asshole celebrities.
• 2:05:37
  But here's my thing. Oh sure. 9099 times out of 100
• 2:05:43
  when you say so and so is an asshole.
• 2:05:46
  When you hear that, what you're actually hearing is when I met
• 2:05:51
  them they weren't the nicest that they could have been.
• 2:05:55
  And so let me let me paint the other side of the picture.
• 2:05:58
  If you've ever heard the oh I met so and so and he's a fucking
• 2:06:01
  Dick. They're working.
• 2:06:06
  You got to understand they're working now you meet a, you meet
• 2:06:11
  a celebrity and and again I speak from the music industry so
• 2:06:14
  I'm going to use all that because I don't that's the one
• 2:06:18
  I'm familiar with. OK, when you meet a musician at
• 2:06:23
  a a fan event then they're in fan mode.
• 2:06:27
  We all. Kurt Doolittle was talking about
• 2:06:29
  this the other day. We have different modes,
• 2:06:32
  different kind of masks that we wear and one of them is work
• 2:06:36
  mask right. Like serious work at fan event.
• 2:06:41
  It's friend mask, right? I am here to meet the fans.
• 2:06:47
  That's the job. That's what I'm doing and I'm
• 2:06:49
  going to be mostly nice to people.
• 2:06:51
  Obviously you're going to have instances of somebody's an
• 2:06:54
  asshole to you and you know they don't like your response or
• 2:06:57
  whatever. And those people who run around
• 2:06:59
  and say you're an asshole. But generally speaking at man at
• 2:07:02
  fan meet and greets where that's the point.
• 2:07:05
  Autograph signings and things like that.
• 2:07:07
  You're not going to get any of the celebrities being mean when
• 2:07:10
  you might get them. Be a little fucking mean to you
• 2:07:14
  is backstage at a concert and that's the night mode or or out
• 2:07:18
  in public, right? They're just going to the store.
• 2:07:22
  Reason being, they're not in fan friendly mode.
• 2:07:26
  They're in either work mode or I'm shopping for my groceries
• 2:07:30
  mode, OK? But work mode is the more
• 2:07:33
  important one I want to talk about.
• 2:07:34
  Because if you go backstage at a concert, you guys might know I'm
• 2:07:39
  like a huge Prince mark, right? And everybody, whoever
• 2:07:43
  approached Prince backstage would tell you he's an asshole.
• 2:07:48
  But that's not the case. I I know someone who has said
• 2:07:51
  the opposite, actually. Well, and that's The thing is,
• 2:07:55
  is that they didn't meet him in this context.
• 2:08:00
  If he was working. He was a perfectionist.
• 2:08:05
  OK, yeah, he's thinking about 30,000 different things.
• 2:08:09
  You have to also understand the Prince performs with a live band
• 2:08:13
  with at least, I think a dozen members.
• 2:08:16
  OK, he he plays multiple instruments.
• 2:08:21
  A show for just one concert for Prince is a million different
• 2:08:26
  little details. And he's a perfectionist.
• 2:08:29
  So while he's sitting backstage, and if you've I did have the
• 2:08:34
  pleasure of working a Prince show one time and meeting him.
• 2:08:37
  And it was one of the best experiences I've ever had in my
• 2:08:40
  life because I approached him after the show when he was done
• 2:08:45
  with the stress for the day. But I saw four or five people
• 2:08:48
  approach him before the show and he cussed people out because
• 2:08:52
  you're all told, please do not do not approach him.
• 2:08:57
  And they're like, Oh yeah, he's too good.
• 2:08:59
  No, he's fucking working. It's a job.
• 2:09:04
  It's a this is, this is the important part.
• 2:09:07
  You got to understand it's a fun job, but it is a job just like
• 2:09:11
  you're not. And he's work.
• 2:09:15
  No, it is. And it's the same in the studio.
• 2:09:17
  Let me tell you, a lot of musicians in the studio, they're
• 2:09:21
  there for fucking business. They're not there to socialize.
• 2:09:24
  Now some of them are there to party and have a blast and
• 2:09:26
  that's fine. And then some of them are super
• 2:09:28
  serious. I I've, I've always heard that
• 2:09:30
  Eric Clapton was super, super serious in the studio.
• 2:09:33
  I've also heard he's a party animal and and he could have a
• 2:09:36
  fucking wonderful time. Maybe not so much with him being
• 2:09:39
  older, but in his day he's a party animal, right?
• 2:09:43
  But he gets in the studio. It's time to lay down a track.
• 2:09:46
  There's 50 fucking thousand things I have to check.
• 2:09:49
  Then I got to play my part, listen to it back and I forgot
• 2:09:52
  three things. Now I got to play it again.
• 2:09:56
  If they're working and you're approaching them, you're the
• 2:09:58
  asshole, Not them. Yeah, I the, the.
• 2:10:01
  You might approach them very nicely, but you're still the
• 2:10:04
  asshole. I just like if you, if you're
• 2:10:07
  understand that they're working, treat them like they're working.
• 2:10:10
  Yeah, the whole thing with the music world, same thing, Yeah.
• 2:10:15
  And if they're in the outside world, treat them like they're a
• 2:10:17
  fucking normal person. Yeah, the whole thing with what
• 2:10:21
  Kurt was saying out, like different modes, really spoke to
• 2:10:24
  me too. Because like, I have, I have a
• 2:10:27
  couple different modes even within the work mode, which is
• 2:10:31
  another thing that Kurt talked about too.
• 2:10:33
  Like for me, like when I'm doing, when I'm podcasting and
• 2:10:38
  when I when I mean podcasting, I don't.
• 2:10:41
  I don't just mean what we're doing now.
• 2:10:43
  I mean, like, behind the scenes stuff like this is the easy
• 2:10:46
  part, like booking guests, doing promotion, like that's one mode.
• 2:10:51
  Like another mode is author mode when I'm writing my books, like
• 2:10:56
  working, you know, on my manuscripts, all of that.
• 2:11:00
  And then I and then like, I have my actual day job too of like
• 2:11:03
  doing marketing and whatnot for people.
• 2:11:05
  Like that's another work mode. So you know and like one of the
• 2:11:11
  and I I talked at this like one of the reasons why when I was
• 2:11:15
  why when I was in college, the reason why I never wrote any of
• 2:11:19
  my fiction books when I was in college was because I was
• 2:11:22
  writing papers and I just, I did not have the mental bandwidth to
• 2:11:27
  do any. You know you only have so much
• 2:11:30
  mental bandwidth within a day and you got to prioritize shit.
• 2:11:37
  So, you know, that's back to the fucking razor blade guitar.
• 2:11:43
  Yeah. A couple other comments on it.
• 2:11:46
  One, are you familiar with Judas Priest?
• 2:11:50
  Of course. And so you're familiar with the
• 2:11:53
  album British Steel? Yeah.
• 2:11:55
  What's the cover of British Steel?
• 2:11:59
  Razor Blade. Razor Blade.
• 2:12:00
  Yeah. What it What did it mean then?
• 2:12:04
  Did it mean? I didn't?
• 2:12:05
  No. It meant color.
• 2:12:07
  Yeah, right. And so then there's a whole
• 2:12:09
  Another side of it is a lot of people, when they see a razor
• 2:12:13
  blade, just think cocaine, right?
• 2:12:16
  Yeah. But in the case of Machine Gun
• 2:12:18
  Kelly, which I find interesting, he wasn't talking about either
• 2:12:20
  of those things. He was talking about shaving his
• 2:12:23
  face, being the one way. And maybe he was being
• 2:12:26
  facetious, maybe he was full of shit, I don't know.
• 2:12:28
  But that's what he said. And I'm going to take him at his
• 2:12:30
  word, right. You know, he could just be
• 2:12:34
  making that up. I don't know.
• 2:12:37
  Well, but it sounds like me as a guy that's hung around a lot of
• 2:12:40
  creative artists. That sounds, yeah, they have
• 2:12:44
  quirks like that. And it does sound like, you
• 2:12:47
  know, again, he's a multinational platinum recording
• 2:12:51
  artist. He's got to be under 30,000
• 2:12:53
  different contracts, stipulations, moral clauses.
• 2:12:58
  If you guys aren't familiar with moral clauses, yes, even in
• 2:13:01
  music there are moral causes that can get you fired from your
• 2:13:05
  record deal if you do or say certain things.
• 2:13:08
  So, like, they're so tightly controlled that it makes perfect
• 2:13:12
  sense to me that they would find some, you know, almost
• 2:13:16
  ritualistic activity that gives them control.
• 2:13:20
  Their their images are so freaking tightly controlled.
• 2:13:24
  It's insane. Yeah.
• 2:13:25
  And and so they have a little more free reign now than they
• 2:13:29
  did 20 years ago or 30 years ago.
• 2:13:32
  And then they had more free reign before that than they do
• 2:13:36
  now. But it's it's somewhere in
• 2:13:39
  between. Now they're very tightly
• 2:13:40
  controlled. Certainly they can swear or have
• 2:13:43
  like some offbeat opinions. You'll notice most of the the
• 2:13:48
  the biggest, the biggest artists who aren't Taylor Swift but are
• 2:13:54
  somewhere in between, you know, big bands and stuff.
• 2:13:58
  You won't find them making a lot of, like, specific political
• 2:14:01
  statements in regards to modern American politics.
• 2:14:06
  Unless they go left. Unless they go left, exactly.
• 2:14:10
  But even a lot of the ones that are left won't do that right.
• 2:14:15
  There's a reason for that, right?
• 2:14:16
  And and and and they might use a lot of metaphor, or they might
• 2:14:20
  use a lot of things in their music.
• 2:14:22
  You might hear in their music. There, I'll tell you one
• 2:14:25
  Metallica like you can know their politics only basically
• 2:14:28
  through their music. And if if you listen to enough
• 2:14:32
  of it, you'll realize that they are like avid libertarians.
• 2:14:37
  Yeah, and they're not leftists. Metallica, they are kind of
• 2:14:43
  center right Libertarian I would say.
• 2:14:47
  But yeah, like, for the most part, you wouldn't know that
• 2:14:51
  aside from the fact like they have songs like Don't Tread On
• 2:14:54
  Me and Atlas Shrugged and and stuff, but it also appeals to
• 2:15:01
  like, you know, their whole bit was appealing to like, working
• 2:15:04
  class. That's like Metallica's whole
• 2:15:07
  shtick. Yeah, that.
• 2:15:09
  Yeah. Metallica, I mean Ted.
• 2:15:15
  I mean Ted Nugent too, you know, say what you will.
• 2:15:20
  I know, I know. Ted Nugent has kind become like
• 2:15:25
  quote UN quote the right wing poster boy.
• 2:15:27
  But like Ted is more of like a libertarian in the interviews I
• 2:15:32
  I've seen. Same with Kid Rock, right?
• 2:15:36
  They're like, oh, Kid Rock is this like, I mean, dude, he
• 2:15:41
  can't be like a fucking holy roller Christian.
• 2:15:44
  He's Kid Rock. No, right.
• 2:15:47
  This is like go listen to his first, you know, big radio song
• 2:15:50
  Bah. With the Bah.
• 2:15:51
  It's literally about talking to the to the poor in the
• 2:15:55
  underclass. This is for the fucking.
• 2:15:58
  This is for all my homies in Cellblock 6.
• 2:16:01
  Right. Like he was the the, the, the,
• 2:16:03
  the drug addicts and the freaks and the and the the sinners.
• 2:16:07
  That's what he he his song was for them.
• 2:16:10
  Yeah. And I would say that's.
• 2:16:13
  And then this is something you won't hear in reference to Kid
• 2:16:17
  Rock very often. That's very Christ.
• 2:16:19
  Like no, I mean I I've like I've I've seen multiple interviews
• 2:16:28
  with him now where he he seems generally genuinely humble and
• 2:16:36
  whatnot Or or here's one for for you, all of a good number of the
• 2:16:41
  emo bands that are around these days.
• 2:16:44
  Christians. Yeah, I know.
• 2:16:48
  Yeah. Well the thing about Kid Rock
• 2:16:51
  and I, without saying too much, you know I've I've met Bob a few
• 2:16:56
  times and I mean it's not the the humility is not fake.
• 2:17:01
  No. He really is humbled at how many
• 2:17:03
  people appreciate his art. Absolutely.
• 2:17:07
  Yeah. What I've I mean I don't want to
• 2:17:12
  be on my high horse but like I I've been and made it long
• 2:17:15
  enough to where I kind of like ABS detector even from when I
• 2:17:19
  watch people and he he definitely I don't he seems
• 2:17:23
  completely genuine to me at least.
• 2:17:27
  So yeah I mean there's been some things said about him some
• 2:17:31
  people have made claim in fact I've see the problem is is I
• 2:17:36
  have friends on multiple sides of things cause I've worked with
• 2:17:39
  so many people and I tried to get along with so many people
• 2:17:43
  and so other people that I'm friends with have made claims
• 2:17:45
  that Kid Rock is racist and has said racist things to them.
• 2:17:49
  I've never heard Kid Rock say anything racist.
• 2:17:51
  And as a matter of fact, every time I met him he was with this
• 2:17:55
  one black girl. So, like it's hard for me to
• 2:17:59
  believe that he was racist while dating a black girl.
• 2:18:03
  Kid Rock was like, had that guy Josie who may he rest in peace.
• 2:18:11
  By the way, he was a good man. I just I just read.
• 2:18:16
  I just read a foot man with the 10 foot Dick.
• 2:18:20
  I mean I was I I I thought. I thought he was like when I
• 2:18:25
  first heard Devil without a 'cause.
• 2:18:27
  I thought I was like is that a kid.
• 2:18:29
  And then I I I looked him up and I'm and I read his store and I'm
• 2:18:33
  like whoa that's Joe to the sea hoe got more game than Coleco.
• 2:18:39
  I'm a freak hoe call me sick 3 foot nine with the 10 foot Dick.
• 2:18:44
  Oh my God. Josie, man.
• 2:18:46
  And fucking great and and what a, what a awesome person.
• 2:18:50
  I'm so glad I had the pleasure to meet him on the occasions I
• 2:18:53
  did before he passed. Really.
• 2:18:58
  There was a guy that loved fucking life.
• 2:19:02
  He had some weird, like he had some weird like the disease or
• 2:19:09
  something or like it's a celiac or something.
• 2:19:11
  He had a lot of problems. Yeah, he was.
• 2:19:16
  He was not doing well. And that's why I say there's a
• 2:19:19
  man who loved life despite all of his suffering.
• 2:19:23
  He didn't just let it ruin him. Yeah, listen, I mean, I don't, I
• 2:19:29
  don't want to speak for Morpheus, but like when people
• 2:19:31
  say that they feel sorry for me or whatever, I'm kind of like,
• 2:19:35
  no, there there's no reason to feel like, yeah, I've, I've had
• 2:19:39
  my struggles. I'm not going to deny that, but
• 2:19:41
  like, I'm out here living, living life that like this is
• 2:19:47
  another thing. Like the thing you were told
• 2:19:50
  wouldn't happen. Yeah.
• 2:19:55
  Then same with Joe C man. They told him he would be dead
• 2:19:58
  long before he was also EE Sam. I shouldn't be where I where
• 2:20:05
  where I am today. I point blank.
• 2:20:08
  I have spent a different with a bunch of other issues.
• 2:20:11
  I should be severely fucked in a bunch of different ways.
• 2:20:17
  And please do not feel sorry for me.
• 2:20:20
  I do the best that I can in my situation.
• 2:20:25
  And the way I see it is there are people that are far worse
• 2:20:30
  off than me and I can and I can do for myself.
• 2:20:34
  I wouldn't be on a podcast with these two two gentlemen if I
• 2:20:37
  couldn't do for myself. With with that being said, and
• 2:20:42
  this is probably my most controversial opinion, I mean, I
• 2:20:47
  really do not. This may be the most
• 2:20:50
  controversial opinion I have, but oh boy, here we go.
• 2:20:54
  I really, I really have a problem with people who I don't
• 2:20:58
  empathize with. People who commit suicide.
• 2:21:01
  Agree. Agreed.
• 2:21:03
  Yeah, Max, I'm harsh. But agree.
• 2:21:06
  Yeah. And that's why I'm saying this
• 2:21:08
  is my most controversial opinion, because in this day and
• 2:21:11
  age, that's not a popular thing to say.
• 2:21:15
  But as someone I'd like. I'd like to put a little nuance
• 2:21:18
  on it though. I have immense sympathy for
• 2:21:21
  those that are left behind by suicide.
• 2:21:24
  Oh, me, Me too. I I was the real victims.
• 2:21:26
  Exactly. The real victims are the ones
• 2:21:29
  that are left. Left.
• 2:21:30
  Yes. My MY22.
• 2:21:37
  My, my, my first girlfriend, her dad committed suicide.
• 2:21:45
  Actually, it brought in, these were girls that I actually, you
• 2:21:51
  know, I went to elementary school with and I've basically
• 2:21:55
  known them my entire life. I knew their dad.
• 2:21:58
  He committed suicide a few years ago.
• 2:22:01
  They were full grown adults. But even with that, it it
• 2:22:07
  changed them. And I've known other people who
• 2:22:14
  have committed suicide and their families have.
• 2:22:19
  You know, it's my Uncle Eric. It's not worth it.
• 2:22:25
  My Uncle Eric who you know helped raise me committed
• 2:22:30
  suicide when I was a teenager and and it was tragic and and
• 2:22:35
  here's a here's a thing is it's a perfect example of nobody knew
• 2:22:40
  anything was wrong and he never told anybody And not to be too
• 2:22:44
  fucking graphic about it until they found the pieces of him
• 2:22:47
  after he got hit by a train and they could only identify him by
• 2:22:51
  a tattoo and nobody nobody had any idea that that's how he felt
• 2:22:58
  man. I when I think of him I think of
• 2:23:01
  a man who was full of life and happy and it's such a shame that
• 2:23:05
  he didn't feel that he could communicate his inner feelings
• 2:23:08
  to anybody. But you know you you pick up and
• 2:23:11
  you move on. And again I I just felt for his
• 2:23:16
  kids and and his his ex-wife and it it's just it's just awful.
• 2:23:22
  But with with that being said if you, I mean with that being said
• 2:23:31
  if you are having suicidal thoughts but you have the
• 2:23:36
  courage to get somebody confront it and seriously hit me up on
• 2:23:43
  Twitter. No, I'm kidding.
• 2:23:45
  Hit me up personally, PM me. If you're in our audience and
• 2:23:49
  you feel that way I really want you to fucking talk to me.
• 2:23:52
  One of one of the most touching things that I have experienced
• 2:23:59
  as a host was during the this during the pandemic.
• 2:24:08
  I was doing lots of live streams by Apex and at some point one of
• 2:24:15
  the I connected with some guy on Twitter who told me that my
• 2:24:23
  podcast with just Apex and I bullshitting helped him laugh
• 2:24:27
  and helped him get through the pandemic and helped them through
• 2:24:31
  some depression that made my fuck all this fuck.
• 2:24:37
  All the Super chats that I could have gotten and you know all
• 2:24:41
  about that made my day to hear. To hear that that's more reward
• 2:24:52
  than I could. You know, That in of itself is
• 2:24:57
  why I'm grateful to be here and why I'm grateful for this
• 2:25:01
  audience. I I really understand now why
• 2:25:05
  Rush loved doing radio so much and why you're connecting with
• 2:25:14
  people like that sometimes that, you know it's like hard to even
• 2:25:17
  it's like, oh I'm sitting here bullshitting, but it actually
• 2:25:21
  made a difference in your life. That's it's still that's how I
• 2:25:25
  felt in music too, right. I, you know, stuff that we had
• 2:25:29
  produced. So it wasn't commercially
• 2:25:31
  successful. That's why I'm not a music
• 2:25:34
  producer. You know what I mean by trade?
• 2:25:37
  But but we had some fans and you'd get these, you'd get
• 2:25:40
  these, these emails, you know, like, hey, you know, you're
• 2:25:45
  fucking your guys's record, Saved my life.
• 2:25:48
  And I'm like, that seems a bit much.
• 2:25:50
  But then they'll tell you their whole story and you're like,
• 2:25:54
  this can't be real because this was just a piece of music we
• 2:25:59
  made for fun, right? It can't possibly be that
• 2:26:02
  important to anybody because who am I?
• 2:26:04
  I'm just a nobody. But you know what?
• 2:26:06
  They don't You don't have to be somebody to to reach somebody
• 2:26:10
  you know? Yeah.
• 2:26:11
  A lot of the reason why I'm on the show now is because Sam and
• 2:26:15
  I were talking on on on Twitter and I happen to mention that I
• 2:26:18
  used to do a the wrestling podcast and you're like hey dude
• 2:26:21
  come on I'm here as long as you 2 gentlemen don't have me.
• 2:26:27
  Yeah I like I like the stuff. Now we we love we love having
• 2:26:32
  you aboard And you know thank thanks to both of you gentlemen
• 2:26:36
  for kind of getting on to the on to the Witcher to you know
• 2:26:42
  that's a little side tangent but you know I've I've enjoyed
• 2:26:47
  getting into that whole universe especially after Game of Thrones
• 2:26:51
  was such a a disappointment. So yeah.
• 2:27:00
  Yeah. Witcher 3 is a fantastic game
• 2:27:03
  and I was surprised you missed it but I'm glad that you've
• 2:27:06
  enjoyed it. Listen, I listen I missed a
• 2:27:09
  whole like decade of you know part part of that too was
• 2:27:15
  because I was in college and I had my nose to to the
• 2:27:18
  grindstone. So just like you've missed a lot
• 2:27:22
  of TV Mac. I mean I I get it.
• 2:27:24
  I missed a lot of gaming. So you know, like I I played
• 2:27:31
  Batman Arkham Knight for the first time last year.
• 2:27:35
  And yeah, I I agree that Batmobile mechanics are shit.
• 2:27:40
  And it's disappointing because that's kind of what I wanted in
• 2:27:45
  a Batman game was a cool Batmobile experience.
• 2:27:49
  But man, when? Somewhere The Witcher The
• 2:27:56
  Witcher 3 was the game that brought me back to video game as
• 2:27:59
  an adult. Yeah, I was playing Diablo with
• 2:28:09
  my boy today. Diablo two specifically on Xbox.
• 2:28:13
  The remaster And it's pretty cool to play a game from my
• 2:28:18
  teenagehood with my 8 year old son was oh God, oh God.
• 2:28:24
  Max is playing a, you know a super scary game with his
• 2:28:28
  eight-year old. It's Diablo bro.
• 2:28:29
  It's like, Speaking of Speaking of Max, was that you that, like
• 2:28:34
  tweeted that if you ever ran for office you would change your ass
• 2:28:37
  name to Max Payne? Yeah, yeah, because OK, there's
• 2:28:41
  transgenders saying that there. It's unfair that they have to
• 2:28:48
  register to run for office under their legal name.
• 2:28:53
  They say that's dead naming, OK? And I'm saying I'm saying, hey,
• 2:28:58
  you can change your name, right, Legally and then run under that
• 2:29:02
  name. They're neglecting to do that,
• 2:29:05
  so they don't want to legally change their name, OK, Then you
• 2:29:08
  have to run under your real name.
• 2:29:10
  If they're going to change that rule, however, then I'm going to
• 2:29:13
  run as Max Payne. What?
• 2:29:15
  What said you May I I I think I made it abundantly clear by now
• 2:29:21
  that Max Payne is my favorite character in all of video games.
• 2:29:25
  Rest rest in peace. James McCaffrey.
• 2:29:28
  By the way if you did that, I would I would vote for you
• 2:29:33
  simply because Max Payne is my favorite character And yeah
• 2:29:37
  that's kind of that's kind of the point of a lot of people
• 2:29:40
  would be like Max Payne. Check.
• 2:29:44
  Yeah, it's either Max Payne or the old Homer Simpson, Max
• 2:29:49
  Power. Although some people, some
• 2:29:53
  people have told me Max Sand is like in that.
• 2:29:57
  But I honestly think it's like Max plus simple last name just
• 2:30:02
  works. Yeah, well listen, like Max Sand
• 2:30:07
  even works kind of like in that in that like I I could see you
• 2:30:13
  being like in that like gritty film noir like type universe
• 2:30:18
  that Max Payne is at, Payne is into.
• 2:30:22
  So although I I did like 3, I know, I know some people hated
• 2:30:28
  3, but three was actually a good game I think.
• 2:30:34
  I think it was a good Max Payne game.
• 2:30:36
  Yeah, I think the tone was different, but I think it needed
• 2:30:39
  that. Well, the tone.
• 2:30:42
  Here's the thing, the tone was the same.
• 2:30:44
  It's the setting was different. Yeah, I get it.
• 2:30:49
  Some people like the grittier New York, but I feel like
• 2:30:53
  putting Gritty Max in that environment was a good call.
• 2:30:58
  But the only thing I didn't like about it was the multiplayer.
• 2:31:02
  But like, that was a fucking afterthought.
• 2:31:04
  Yeah. Because bullet time just don't
• 2:31:07
  work right in fucking multiplayer.
• 2:31:11
  No. And it's never gonna you know
• 2:31:14
  stop. I'm I'm I'm hoping.
• 2:31:17
  I'm hoping that that they actually do the remakes now.
• 2:31:22
  I know they've been working on it but like we've heard we've
• 2:31:26
  heard that the remakes have been in progress for like I don't
• 2:31:32
  know four years now have you have you come across this game?
• 2:31:39
  I'm you know, I I follow on Twitter the guy that made it El
• 2:31:43
  Paso elsewhere. It's like a psychedelic Max
• 2:31:49
  Payne meets. It's hard to describe, but I
• 2:31:53
  highly recommend the indie game El Paso elsewhere.
• 2:31:57
  No, I I I did have, hilariously enough, though.
• 2:32:01
  I had the guy who made, like the jihadist version version of of
• 2:32:07
  Max Payne, like, and I like follow me and try and get me to
• 2:32:10
  buy his. Like, yeah, I had the guy who
• 2:32:15
  was making a game called Hamas Heroes and he put me in as a
• 2:32:18
  Yeah, yeah, that's funny. No, no.
• 2:32:22
  Hey, ladies and gentlemen, if you want to kill me in a video
• 2:32:26
  game, go pick up Hamas Heroes on Steam.
• 2:32:29
  I'm sure it's banned, but they were trying to put it on Steam.
• 2:32:34
  Yeah, I think, I think I'm, I think I'm on.
• 2:32:38
  I think I might be in there too. Well, like he followed me and
• 2:32:41
  then he saw all of like the veteran people that I follow and
• 2:32:44
  he was like, oh fuck you. So I don't know, he just did.
• 2:32:50
  He just did it, 'cause I had AIA fucking Israeli flag in my
• 2:32:55
  Twitter name and I was. It's just so funny how much I've
• 2:33:00
  gotten anti-Semitism because of that.
• 2:33:02
  And I'm like I'm not Jewish. No you you know you know what's
• 2:33:06
  funny is I got no you're you're you're sucking up to the what do
• 2:33:10
  they call it? They have a word for it and it's
• 2:33:14
  a Yiddish word which I find funny.
• 2:33:16
  Shabbos. I believe it's Shabbos.
• 2:33:19
  They call me a Shabbos. Yeah, I you'll look, man, at the
• 2:33:28
  end of the day, a Jewish man delivered my son and a Jewish
• 2:33:34
  woman performed heart surgery, saving my life.
• 2:33:36
  It's really hard to hate them. So you could say whatever you
• 2:33:41
  want, but it's really hard for me to hate those two people.
• 2:33:44
  Yeah, definitely not. I'm not.
• 2:33:46
  I'm not even going anywhere. Anywhere near feet with those.
• 2:33:49
  Yeah, it's like, OK, so they're bad people that save my life and
• 2:33:56
  bring my son into the world, huh?
• 2:33:58
  Give me a fucking break, dude. I get off the Internet while you
• 2:34:04
  guys are here. I have to.
• 2:34:08
  Let's see. Oh yeah, and a Jewish guy
• 2:34:10
  manages my money. I forgot that that's important
• 2:34:12
  too. He's really good at it.
• 2:34:17
  I while you two are here, I have to bring up my favorite meme.
• 2:34:22
  I would count. Oh my God.
• 2:34:24
  Recently, Morpheus, I think saw this.
• 2:34:28
  But yeah, I just thought that this was Sam.
• 2:34:36
  I don't think that's a Subway sandwich.
• 2:34:41
  No. Whoa.
• 2:34:42
  Well, you know, it it could be in some, you know, I mean, it
• 2:34:50
  might be a foot long, but it's not a Subway sandwich.
• 2:34:55
  Oh, oh, it's a foot long. But, you know, there's not
• 2:34:59
  enough meat in it. There's it's too much bread.
• 2:35:02
  Well they're they're yeah, there's too much bread and too
• 2:35:05
  much lettuce. So.
• 2:35:11
  But yeah, for those listening on audio, it's me and Mark says
• 2:35:18
  Israeli Israel's biggest movies movie actress.
• 2:35:23
  And it's Gal Gadot who plays one to one and then then just goes
• 2:35:28
  Hamas biggest movie actress. And it's me, Khalifa who who's
• 2:35:36
  about to eat a foot long Subway sandwich that I'm pretty sure is
• 2:35:40
  actually just concealing a penis just for the audio listeners.
• 2:35:49
  Yeah, well more theas since you're the, you know, since
• 2:35:54
  you're in the box, please. What do you have to say on this
• 2:35:58
  math? On this matter?
• 2:36:02
  Mia's nasty. Yeah.
• 2:36:05
  Yeah. But here's my thing is which one
• 2:36:07
  had the higher domestic gross? Well, pretty sure it was Gayle.
• 2:36:13
  Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was the porn actress.
• 2:36:16
  Oh well, it's just that she didn't get.
• 2:36:24
  The difference is, is that she didn't get most of the money
• 2:36:27
  because it's a different industry.
• 2:36:30
  But more people have probably seen it than fucking Wonder
• 2:36:33
  Woman. That's actually as much as much
• 2:36:40
  as they hate to admit it. I didn't even know who.
• 2:36:44
  I didn't even know who Mia Khalifa was until just like a
• 2:36:47
  few years ago, actually. So I I discerned that she was a
• 2:36:58
  porn actress and saw her making bad takes on Twitter.
• 2:37:02
  She yeah, she, I don't watch porn, so I wouldn't know who the
• 2:37:05
  fuck she is. No.
• 2:37:07
  And I well, yeah. And I like, don't watch, you
• 2:37:14
  know? Yeah.
• 2:37:16
  You're not you're you. You're not going to say you
• 2:37:18
  don't watch porn, Right. So I mean I don't consider
• 2:37:23
  Playboy to be porn, but I mean, I I don't watch that type.
• 2:37:29
  Let me just, I don't, I don't watch the type, the type that
• 2:37:32
  she's in. Let me put it.
• 2:37:33
  Let me put it that way. She likes the gay porn.
• 2:37:39
  I've seen more Mia porn on Twitter than I ever did.
• 2:37:41
  Going to see Kit that that's, you know, that's actually,
• 2:37:48
  that's a good point apparently. Apparently she also eats dog
• 2:37:54
  shit according to Ian Miles Chong, but I don't know if
• 2:37:58
  that's true or not. Yeah, but he kills dogs, so fuck
• 2:38:02
  him. Yeah, fuck Ian.
• 2:38:07
  Yeah, that guy is a fucking God. E celebrities are all cancer.
• 2:38:15
  I've mentioned that on the show a few times, but I just think
• 2:38:18
  it's worth pointing out she's one of them.
• 2:38:20
  You know a porn star is an E celeb nowadays.
• 2:38:24
  Not like in the old days where you actually had to go to a porn
• 2:38:28
  shop. You bortheus is probably fucking
• 2:38:33
  knows more than anything than than you.
• 2:38:36
  But, like, back in the day, you actually had to, like, people
• 2:38:39
  had to know your shame because you had to walk up to the
• 2:38:42
  counter with your porn and have somebody else ring it up for
• 2:38:45
  you. And at one point, you had to go
• 2:38:47
  into a movie, a movie theater. You had to go to, like,
• 2:38:50
  Blockbuster and go, go. No, like, like, the biggest
• 2:38:57
  revelation from Brain was that people used to go to a movie
• 2:39:00
  theater. Yeah, Everything.
• 2:39:04
  Taxi Driver. Oh, yeah, Girl to the porn, The
• 2:39:08
  porn theater as a fucking date. Yeah.
• 2:39:11
  Yeah. Based.
• 2:39:15
  Well, American Werewolf in London, like there's a whole
• 2:39:20
  scene that's in a porn theater. So yeah, yeah, it used to be
• 2:39:28
  theaters. I'm not that old.
• 2:39:30
  We had VHS. Obviously.
• 2:39:32
  VHS market was like almost entirely driven by porn.
• 2:39:36
  You see, the reason that VHS defeated Betamax, which was a
• 2:39:40
  superior platform, was because the porn studios chose VHS
• 2:39:45
  because they were cheaper and so because all the people consuming
• 2:39:50
  porn had switched over to VHS, Betamax could not get enough
• 2:39:54
  market share to compete and thus we got the VHS era.
• 2:39:59
  It's also similar with DVDs. The porn companies selected that
• 2:40:03
  as the winner, as opposed to other formats that were
• 2:40:05
  competing at the time. And HDDVD versus Blu-ray,
• 2:40:10
  Blu-ray was adopted by the porn. That's why it's the one that won
• 2:40:15
  whichever technology the porn industry adopts is going to be
• 2:40:20
  the one. And so like like a lot of the
• 2:40:23
  porn VR is now geared towards Oculus or now now it's called
• 2:40:27
  meta. The the, the VR porn is all
• 2:40:30
  geared towards the meta quest. So that's going to be the one
• 2:40:34
  that wins the battle. Yeah.
• 2:40:36
  So in other words, Apple is fucked because they don't allow
• 2:40:40
  any pornographic, like, content on their thing then.
• 2:40:47
  Yeah, yeah, well, but but they they're they're also fucked
• 2:40:51
  because of the expensive price tag.
• 2:40:53
  But you know, you can just go to a fucking website.
• 2:40:57
  You don't need it to be on like the Apple Store, That that's
• 2:41:02
  true, right? And I'm sure there will be
• 2:41:05
  plenty of it. Like the porn industry likes you
• 2:41:08
  to fucking get their shit. So but yeah, you're right.
• 2:41:13
  It's a it's a more expensive product.
• 2:41:15
  It's not as mass market and because the porn industry is
• 2:41:18
  focused on creating I I keep calling it Oculus, the Meta
• 2:41:23
  Quest content and the meta Quest is outsold all the other VR
• 2:41:27
  machines by a lot. It's not even works.
• 2:41:31
  It's like Apple. Like realistically, Apple is
• 2:41:34
  already lost. They cannot sell enough VR
• 2:41:38
  headsets to ever compete. Even if it was $300.00 like the
• 2:41:41
  meta. I mean it if.
• 2:41:47
  I mean if it were around. OK, you might be right.
• 2:41:50
  I I would. They're coming.
• 2:41:51
  They're coming close to Nintendo Switch numbers, Sam.
• 2:41:58
  OK, yeah, that. Well my one, my one argument
• 2:42:03
  would be if it were cheaper than like it would be I I'm not
• 2:42:06
  disagreeing that they would lose.
• 2:42:08
  What I am saying is if it were cheaper, there would be more
• 2:42:12
  competition. If it was cheaper, they could
• 2:42:15
  have their second place monopoly like they do with phones.
• 2:42:19
  I agree, but they're not. But what I'm somebody else is
• 2:42:23
  going to take the 2nd place spot simply because of the price and
• 2:42:27
  and you're right they're making it harder to get porn on the
• 2:42:30
  thing. It's not like you can't get porn
• 2:42:33
  on the Oculus through like their store right.
• 2:42:39
  So it's the same with as with Apple but they're making content
• 2:42:42
  specifically with that device in mind.
• 2:42:46
  Yeah, I'm sure you can port it over, but it you know they're
• 2:42:51
  they're going after the one that's popular because that's
• 2:42:54
  their market and they know that any any thing that is that well
• 2:42:59
  established, you know is the right call.
• 2:43:02
  But also the porn industry has picked winners and losers for a
• 2:43:05
  long time in the tech community. I'll tell you this, when VR porn
• 2:43:11
  was first becoming like a a kind of entity, if you would go to
• 2:43:16
  like the CES or any of these consumer electronic shows like I
• 2:43:19
  do, the lines for the like, the VR porn booths would be the
• 2:43:24
  longest line in the place by a mile.
• 2:43:28
  Which is weird. Which is weird if you think
• 2:43:30
  about it, because you're waiting in line to use the same Oculus
• 2:43:35
  VR after 400 other guys have sat in that chair using it to look
• 2:43:40
  at porn. I I can assure you that I did
• 2:43:44
  not go through those lines because I thought that that was
• 2:43:47
  fucking gross. But I did take note of nothing
• 2:43:51
  was even close to as popular as the VR porn display.
• 2:43:55
  Not even. No.
• 2:43:55
  I, I and this was before the new Xbox and PlayStation.
• 2:43:59
  Nobody was in line for that. Everybody was in line for the
• 2:44:02
  Oculus VR porn. I believe it.
• 2:44:08
  Journalists, fucking fucking tech journalists, all waiting to
• 2:44:11
  get their chance to look at some porn.
• 2:44:13
  Oh, oh, oh, oh, of course it's the tech journalist.
• 2:44:17
  The. I mean, if you're at those
• 2:44:20
  shows, you're either a journalist or you work in the
• 2:44:22
  industry, right? It's not like a.
• 2:44:25
  It's not like everybody can go to these shows.
• 2:44:28
  Yeah. So it's almost all journalists.
• 2:44:31
  That's why I thought it was funny.
• 2:44:32
  There's so many journalists and in line to go watch porn
• 2:44:36
  together and fucking weirdos. Yeah, well they there are some
• 2:44:42
  weird there are just some general weirdos or Asmorthy as
• 2:44:46
  likes to say SUS people in journalism.
• 2:44:54
  So yeah, I love did you see my thing today?
• 2:44:57
  Somebody was talking about Coach Redpo and they were like Ukraine
• 2:45:02
  killed an American journalist and both parties want to give
• 2:45:05
  the money. And I was like hold on, hold on,
• 2:45:06
  hold on. Calling Coach Red Pill a
• 2:45:10
  journalist makes him less sympathetic because journalism
• 2:45:16
  well, and also also is kind of a stretch because he was like a
• 2:45:23
  sector Blogger, right, A manosphere.
• 2:45:25
  It's also, it's also not just that like, but like the people
• 2:45:32
  are sympathetic, like they've gone out of their way, at least
• 2:45:36
  in the interactions. The I because like they'll call
• 2:45:39
  by his, but they'll call by like his real name, like Gonzalo or
• 2:45:43
  what it was. But I'm like, but I'm like the
• 2:45:47
  reason they're doing that is they don't want to call him
• 2:45:50
  Coach Redbank because then you have to address the picture of
• 2:45:55
  him with the cast that says to gas the Jews and you have to
• 2:45:59
  like all kinds of like problematic fucking stuff they
• 2:46:03
  don't want. No, no, no, I know that.
• 2:46:05
  But but like, so my whole bit has been for the past week.
• 2:46:08
  When they say Gonzalo Lyra, I say, oh, you mean Coach Coach
• 2:46:13
  Redpell And their their order response is no, I mean Gonzalo
• 2:46:18
  Lyra. And I'm like and I mean Coach
• 2:46:22
  Redpell like, I I mean he wouldn't deny that that's who he
• 2:46:25
  is. He never say that.
• 2:46:29
  No. So no.
• 2:46:30
  So why should so? Why should so?
• 2:46:32
  Why should we? That that's my question.
• 2:46:35
  We we shouldn't. Like, I'm not.
• 2:46:39
  I'm not saying that they should have killed them necessarily.
• 2:46:44
  Well, I am. Oh, I will defend Ukraine on
• 2:46:52
  this one. The problem isn't Ukraine.
• 2:46:55
  The problem was our government. They should not have allowed
• 2:46:59
  that to happen. I agree.
• 2:47:01
  Ukraine was in the right. This man was a guest in their
• 2:47:05
  country. He wasn't even a legal resident
• 2:47:07
  because he refused. I mean, Kurt put it this whole
• 2:47:09
  thing out. And Kurt said he's not a good
• 2:47:11
  man. And I agree.
• 2:47:13
  And Kurt knew him personally and knew him in Ukraine.
• 2:47:16
  Right. A lot of people don't know that
• 2:47:18
  Kurt lived in Karvieve. I think it's he lived in Ukraine
• 2:47:22
  for quite a while. At the same time, they knew each
• 2:47:24
  other. And the first thing Kurt said is
• 2:47:26
  he's not a good man. No, I I agree with him on that.
• 2:47:31
  But more importantly, he was too lazy to fill out his paperwork
• 2:47:36
  to get his residential thing. Kurt said it's the easiest
• 2:47:38
  fucking thing in the world. So he's not even he's basically
• 2:47:41
  an illegal immigrant in their country.
• 2:47:43
  And then he yeah, to run propaganda for an invading army.
• 2:47:48
  I do not blame them. And and look, I love, I love
• 2:47:53
  Tucker Carlson. You know how much I love Tucker.
• 2:47:56
  But shame on Tucker for glossing over that fact.
• 2:48:02
  But but the State Department should never have allowed him to
• 2:48:06
  die. That is that he's an American
• 2:48:12
  citizen and it was our country's responsibility to bring him home
• 2:48:16
  safely as it should from any American who is taken as a
• 2:48:20
  political prisoner overseas. And and I look I said he was
• 2:48:25
  kind of running propaganda for the enemy but that does make him
• 2:48:28
  a political prisoner in America. That would just be called
• 2:48:30
  freedom of speech. This is a thing Americans forget
• 2:48:33
  you don't have freedom of speech in other fucking countries
• 2:48:36
  right. No.
• 2:48:38
  So that that's and he people were invading and killing
• 2:48:43
  Ukrainians and this fucking asshole had the fucking
• 2:48:46
  audacity, right? He got kicked out of his fucking
• 2:48:49
  hotel immediately. Not because the guy was like,
• 2:48:52
  oh, you're such a 'cause. I saw the video of the hotel
• 2:48:54
  manager comes up to him and he's like, you can't stay here
• 2:48:56
  anymore. I'm being threatened.
• 2:48:59
  So like Max, I I'm curious why did he go to Ukraine?
• 2:49:07
  And and I don't know. I'm I'm not that familiar with
• 2:49:12
  like his story to me starts there at the part that I've
• 2:49:17
  explained. I didn't know who he was before
• 2:49:19
  that because I wasn't into the whole Ethan Ralph.
• 2:49:22
  Right. Right.
• 2:49:23
  So I like I I didn't know Dick Masterson was either.
• 2:49:27
  No no I from what from what I heard was my my limited
• 2:49:31
  knowledge is I think it was for a woman.
• 2:49:35
  OK that sounds as possible as anything.
• 2:49:38
  He he he was like a right wing doomer.
• 2:49:40
  So maybe there was some. I have to get out of America in
• 2:49:43
  it and Ukraine. Here's the thing about Ukraine
• 2:49:46
  pre war and why Kurt went there. It's a great place for tech
• 2:49:51
  startups. Or it was.
• 2:49:52
  It's not now. Yeah.
• 2:49:54
  Yeah, maybe that had. So I don't know why he got
• 2:49:57
  there. But I do know that you're
• 2:49:59
  essentially an illegal immigrant in their country.
• 2:50:02
  What now see what what I've heard and this is the thing with
• 2:50:05
  the whole sector that like you can never or I guess with the
• 2:50:09
  whole E drama spirit that you can never tell.
• 2:50:12
  What I heard is that he went there because basically like
• 2:50:16
  because Dick Masterson dared him to.
• 2:50:19
  I don't know if that's true. Leave that for one second.
• 2:50:22
  I I don't. I don't buy that.
• 2:50:25
  I but like that's just what I heard.
• 2:50:28
  I don't buy it but that's what I've heard.
• 2:50:32
  No, that sounds like that sounds like some Internet rumor
• 2:50:35
  bullshit. Yeah, that that's just a girl.
• 2:50:38
  You know maybe maybe he had some kind of idea of a tech startup
• 2:50:43
  company, but I don't believe that it was a dare from some
• 2:50:47
  sector guy. I think that the the problem
• 2:50:49
  with the Ethan Ralph sector people is that they want to
• 2:50:53
  praise their importance to something actually important.
• 2:50:57
  Yeah, And so they've all jumped on this with all of their
• 2:51:01
  bullshit about the guy. All I know is that he has had a
• 2:51:06
  lot of things he said that I disagree with, but I'll support
• 2:51:10
  his right to free speech. Except that you're in a foreign
• 2:51:14
  country, bro, and you got to understand that the risk and he
• 2:51:19
  and he to some degree he did after after he did the videos,
• 2:51:24
  he realized how serious it was. I don't think he realized it
• 2:51:28
  would be that serious. And certainly he couldn't have
• 2:51:31
  predicted that Russian television would put his videos
• 2:51:34
  on the air, which is really what caused him the most problems.
• 2:51:38
  But here's the other thing. We do know that he was
• 2:51:41
  originally captured by Azoff battalion, the supposedly worst
• 2:51:45
  of the worst, and they didn't kill him.
• 2:51:48
  They took him into custody and put him in jail.
• 2:51:51
  Now we we also don't necessarily know how he died, and if I'm
• 2:51:56
  going to speculate, I'm going to put everything on suicide but
• 2:52:01
  he. But again, the State Department
• 2:52:03
  shouldn't have let him rot any Ukrainian prison, no matter
• 2:52:05
  what. We're supposedly their allies.
• 2:52:10
  They should have fucking given him to us.
• 2:52:14
  But they didn't. Yeah, well, he was asking for
• 2:52:17
  it. So in that way, yeah, we should
• 2:52:20
  hold them to the fire about it. But but let's have the real
• 2:52:23
  conversation that what he did. Like, imagine.
• 2:52:28
  Imagine, Sam. Imagine if you suddenly your
• 2:52:33
  town, your, you know, your state, was literally invaded by
• 2:52:37
  another country and there was some asshole streaming, laughing
• 2:52:41
  about it and saying how they were going to kill you all.
• 2:52:44
  Would you be happy, or would you want to string the guy up?
• 2:52:48
  He's lucky they didn't just fucking lynch him.
• 2:52:51
  Yeah, I'm so I That's why I say I don't blame the Ukrainians for
• 2:52:57
  their reaction to him. What I do blame is the Biden
• 2:53:01
  State Department for allowing this to happen to an American
• 2:53:06
  citizen, not a fucking journalist.
• 2:53:07
  Stop calling him a fucking journalist.
• 2:53:09
  I'm so sick of that. Yeah, well, he's a fucking
• 2:53:13
  Blogger and he's a he's a manosphere Blogger at that.
• 2:53:18
  Yeah well the the other thing too like to your point about the
• 2:53:22
  Biden administration is we allegedly have special forces
• 2:53:31
  like teams in Ukraine. From what I've heard, we might
• 2:53:38
  not like if we do like special forces they do hostage like
• 2:53:44
  rescue. So when he like I would but but
• 2:53:48
  but that would be the hostages of our enemies.
• 2:53:50
  This is our ally. Right.
• 2:53:54
  But like all the money we've gave them and they couldn't hand
• 2:53:59
  this one guy over to us you know why but but let let's be real.
• 2:54:03
  Do you know why they didn't hand him over to us?
• 2:54:06
  No one asked them to. No.
• 2:54:13
  Well, he's he was like, he was a nobody, basically.
• 2:54:18
  Yeah, he was a nobody. He was just a fucking.
• 2:54:22
  I mean, he did manosphere blogs for like 30 people and then just
• 2:54:26
  started recording The invasion and laughing about it.
• 2:54:30
  And I love that people call that, oh, he's a journalist.
• 2:54:33
  Like, first of all, that's actually disrespectful to him,
• 2:54:39
  to call him a journalist because he hated fucking journalists.
• 2:54:43
  Second of all, he's just not, he's not a journalist.
• 2:54:48
  He's in a he. Then.
• 2:54:49
  That's why I think it's important he was just AUS
• 2:54:52
  citizen who expressed his opinion and it was the State
• 2:54:56
  Department's fucking prerogative to just let him rot.
• 2:55:01
  And they knew eventually he'd fucking die.
• 2:55:03
  I mean, there's no way they didn't know that.
• 2:55:06
  Well, my my question, I'm just, I'm just like playing devil's
• 2:55:11
  advocate here. My my question would be, if I
• 2:55:14
  were like a normie, did the State Department even know who
• 2:55:18
  he was? Because like, I look, I'm like,
• 2:55:23
  I'm Internet savvy and I barely and I barely knew who the guy
• 2:55:29
  was. They knew, right?
• 2:55:31
  They knew. No, they knew.
• 2:55:35
  They were very aware. I'm just, I'm just asking.
• 2:55:39
  Well, I mean, look, they got that fucking basketball playing
• 2:55:42
  bitch right? They got her no problem.
• 2:55:45
  And and Russia is not Russia's not our ally.
• 2:55:48
  But they made that fucking trade, didn't they?
• 2:55:51
  Ukraine is our ally. And if we had asked them to hand
• 2:55:55
  him over for all the billions of fucking dollars we've given
• 2:55:59
  them, they would have fucking done it if we said, look, you
• 2:56:02
  give us our guy back or we're not giving you any for more
• 2:56:05
  fucking money. But Biden's not about to do
• 2:56:07
  that. And by the way, the Republicans
• 2:56:09
  who want to give them more money are just as fucking bad.
• 2:56:13
  No more money. No more money.
• 2:56:15
  No more money for fucking Ukraine.
• 2:56:17
  None. Period.
• 2:56:18
  Done. Yeah, if an American citizen
• 2:56:21
  can't be safe there, then why should we fucking safe from the
• 2:56:25
  Ukrainians, not the Russians. I mean, why should we keep
• 2:56:32
  giving them money? I don't know.
• 2:56:33
  We've already given them too much money, even.
• 2:56:36
  Like even some people from Zelensky's, like even some
• 2:56:42
  people from Zelensky's can have admitted now like it's a lost
• 2:56:48
  that the war's a lost cause. Did you see that?
• 2:56:52
  Like that came out back in. I know they're trying to seek
• 2:56:59
  peace talks through Switzerland which usually that ends these
• 2:57:03
  kind of conflicts. Yeah well like not just the
• 2:57:08
  strain by the way like Russia is also seeking mediation.
• 2:57:11
  So the odds are that there will be some kind of ceasefire when
• 2:57:17
  is hard to say. But and I'd like that to happen.
• 2:57:21
  I look, I'm anti war period, right.
• 2:57:26
  I just oppose all of it. So I would prefer them to figure
• 2:57:31
  this out and stop killing each other.
• 2:57:33
  But we cannot. We can't.
• 2:57:35
  Just at the one hand I don't like the narrative surrounding
• 2:57:39
  this guy. OK.
• 2:57:41
  And on the other hand, like, you should never have allowed an
• 2:57:45
  American citizen to be killed as a prisoner of war in a country
• 2:57:49
  that we're allies with ever, ever happen.
• 2:57:53
  Yeah. And, you know, I had to consider
• 2:57:55
  that. And I I had to consider what you
• 2:57:57
  said about Brittany Griner until you until you mentioned it.
• 2:58:00
  But yeah, you're you're absolutely right.
• 2:58:02
  It is weird. It is weird that that, like we
• 2:58:07
  went into more effort to get Brittany Griner from an enemy.
• 2:58:11
  He traded the most notorious arms dealer ever for a fucking
• 2:58:15
  basketball player. For a dumb basketball player who
• 2:58:19
  had smoked pot in a country where you definitely shouldn't
• 2:58:22
  smoke pot. Yeah, a pro tip to anybody if
• 2:58:26
  you travel internationally. Don't bring fucking drugs.
• 2:58:30
  That's not smart. Yeah, now we should have gotten
• 2:58:38
  her back. That's where I'm going to differ
• 2:58:40
  from a lot of fucking Republicans.
• 2:58:42
  We should have gotten her back. We should also get back the
• 2:58:45
  Marines who are in Russian custody, who got left behind
• 2:58:49
  instead of her, and should also have gotten Gonzalo Lira back.
• 2:58:53
  If you're going to get Brittany Grinder back, you get everybody
• 2:58:56
  back. Yeah, these are Americans, you
• 2:59:01
  know, And Biden doesn't give a fuck.
• 2:59:02
  Biden doesn't give a fuck about any Americans.
• 2:59:05
  He cared because she fit into his into their identity
• 2:59:08
  politics. Bullshit.
• 2:59:10
  That's the only reason he cared. Who gives a fuck about a woman's
• 2:59:14
  basketball player? Who gives a fuck about women's
• 2:59:16
  basketball? Who watches that shit?
• 2:59:19
  Nobody. I was shitting on AEW for
• 2:59:21
  700,000 fans, but I guarantee you and then, AW, NBA game gets
• 2:59:26
  like 10 fans. Well, I, I, I would all say the
• 2:59:32
  the difference between between the WNBA and AW is that the
• 2:59:38
  women are actually attractive in AW.
• 2:59:45
  Yeah, that's why they can't wrestle when the women
• 2:59:48
  basketball players are less attractive, but they are
• 2:59:50
  physically fit and can do the fucking sport that they're in.
• 2:59:58
  That's a good point too, when you ripped your baby.
• 3:00:07
  Whatever happened. My favorite is that one clip
• 3:00:10
  where I was ranting about women wrestling with you, Sam and I.
• 3:00:13
  You cut it at the perfect point. Because my last question was
• 3:00:16
  whatever happened to handsome Jimmy Valiant?
• 3:00:21
  I and and again I was like I was Editing clips on one's phone is
• 3:00:29
  not easy. But damn it.
• 3:00:33
  I got a couple of I got a couple of comments that are actually
• 3:00:37
  from the gilded server as opposed to the live chat.
• 3:00:42
  The big Malden guy is really dominating that crippled man.
• 3:00:46
  Thank you. I actually corrected that I said
• 3:00:49
  two crippled men and cat lovers also says now they are saying
• 3:00:55
  that man in Ukraine was not a journalist.
• 3:00:58
  Reddit said he was. That's pretty funny actually.
• 3:01:01
  And and Dip says the most sickening thing to me is when
• 3:01:05
  the president left our military men in prison in Russia forever
• 3:01:08
  instead traded for some dumb bitch agreed those those men
• 3:01:13
  deserve to go first, 100%. She went there.
• 3:01:18
  She went there as a business thing.
• 3:01:21
  They didn't go there. They went there because they
• 3:01:23
  were soldiers. It's different.
• 3:01:26
  They went there because they were fucking ordered to.
• 3:01:28
  Yeah, we should never leave. We should never leave one of our
• 3:01:33
  boys behind. Or what about men and women?
• 3:01:37
  Because women serve. I don't want to completely be
• 3:01:40
  shit on them. If we have a man or a woman in
• 3:01:44
  the Armed Services that is being held in another country, we
• 3:01:47
  should not just leave them there.
• 3:01:51
  And no, we shouldn't have left. We shouldn't have left the
• 3:01:54
  basketball playing woman there either.
• 3:01:55
  But they all should be home. We and we all, we all.
• 3:02:00
  I'll go one further. All of our fucking men and women
• 3:02:03
  in uniform should be home. All of them.
• 3:02:07
  Yeah. Well well yeah, I was.
• 3:02:10
  I was just going to say that we should not have left.
• 3:02:14
  We should not have left. We should not have left behind
• 3:02:17
  our soldiers in Afghanistan after the cluster fuck.
• 3:02:22
  Because there are still some there.
• 3:02:25
  And and furthermore, we also should not have left behind the
• 3:02:32
  Iraqis who we promised we would give asylum to for helping us
• 3:02:39
  basically in that war. I'll go you one further, Sam,
• 3:02:42
  because I have the flag up upstairs.
• 3:02:44
  It's not among my flags here. But we shouldn't have left
• 3:02:47
  behind those PO WS and MIAs in Vietnam either.
• 3:02:51
  Especially them, because there's more of them than there are of
• 3:02:56
  anybody else we're talking about.
• 3:02:57
  So I don't want to like, leave that out of the conversation
• 3:03:01
  because the fucking the, the the Johnson administration left
• 3:03:06
  hundreds and hundreds of men behind.
• 3:03:11
  Yep, I'm glad to bring that up now.
• 3:03:15
  And their families never to even be told what happened to them.
• 3:03:18
  And some of them were alive as prisoners for long after that
• 3:03:22
  war ended. Yeah, no, it's it's brought the
• 3:03:28
  trader John McCain home. Why couldn't we bring the good
• 3:03:30
  guys home? Why?
• 3:03:35
  Why'd we get him and John Kerry? Do you do you want do you want
• 3:03:38
  to know the Are you asking rhetorically or do you want the
• 3:03:42
  do you ask? Go ahead.
• 3:03:44
  OK. No, I mean, yeah, it's a
• 3:03:47
  rhetorical question, but. And this is the sad truth too,
• 3:03:52
  is McCain had the juice to get home because his father was part
• 3:03:59
  of the militant, was part of the military industrial complex.
• 3:04:04
  So, and doesn't it doesn't matter that he worked with the
• 3:04:11
  enemy to create propaganda against our country, right?
• 3:04:14
  He's so much more important than all those guys, right?
• 3:04:19
  And you see the flag, you. I mean, everybody's seen the
• 3:04:22
  POWMIA flag. There's a reason people are
• 3:04:24
  fucking waving that. And I just feel like the younger
• 3:04:27
  people don't fully grasp why. Because a portion of their
• 3:04:32
  generation was left in another fucking country to just be
• 3:04:36
  fucked. Whatever.
• 3:04:37
  Whatever happens to you, go fuck yourself.
• 3:04:42
  Despicable. Those men, those men went there
• 3:04:46
  and they fought in one of the fucking toughest wars in the
• 3:04:50
  modern era. And you couldn't even have the
• 3:04:52
  decency to a war which, by the way, Nixon, President Nixon was
• 3:05:00
  trying to get us out of. And then like fucking Watergate.
• 3:05:08
  Yeah, happen. I I, you know surprisingly
• 3:05:17
  YouTube actually did something right this week which was they
• 3:05:21
  pointed me at the they pointed me to the channel of the Nick of
• 3:05:26
  the Richard Nixon Foundation and they've got some good content
• 3:05:33
  over there. Shout out to the rich and day.
• 3:05:36
  I'm actually like I know Max. I was like he's a contrarian.
• 3:05:42
  Rick Nixon being one of my top presidents.
• 3:05:45
  That's like my big country and opinion because I've always been
• 3:05:51
  a Nix a pro Nixon guy. But yeah, well let me ask you
• 3:05:56
  this, Nixon was Trump before Trump.
• 3:06:03
  Yeah. No he was.
• 3:06:05
  But like when I when I was when I was growing up, like in school
• 3:06:09
  and I went to a pretty good school actually.
• 3:06:11
  But when I was growing up, all I heard about Nixon was that he
• 3:06:14
  was a bad dude because Watergate, that's literally all
• 3:06:18
  they that that's literally all they taught us about Rick Nixon.
• 3:06:23
  And well, and the reason that that didn't take with me in
• 3:06:25
  particular is because I I was listening to, Oh my God, I can't
• 3:06:33
  believe I based on his name. G Gordon.
• 3:06:37
  Lidd. Yeah, Yep, Yep.
• 3:06:39
  I was a big listener with G Gordon Liddy when I was a
• 3:06:42
  teenager and and and a preteen teenager and so like, you know,
• 3:06:48
  you get a lot more context. If you've listened to him.
• 3:06:51
  I highly recommend just go listen to some of his old shows.
• 3:06:56
  If only thing just for some of his old stories about being Acia
• 3:07:01
  Spook, you would talk about like assassinations and stuff.
• 3:07:03
  It was fucking great. Like, you know, whatever you
• 3:07:07
  feel about the legalities of it or whatever, it's really cool.
• 3:07:11
  It's, you know, he was like a real life spy, you know, real
• 3:07:15
  life, interesting cat. I had the pleasure of talking to
• 3:07:20
  him. I did.
• 3:07:21
  He was going to give me an interview before he died.
• 3:07:24
  Unfortunately. He said it was when his health
• 3:07:26
  improved and it didn't. I was very thankful that he gave
• 3:07:32
  me as much of his time as he did 'cause he did agree to do an
• 3:07:34
  interview with me because I was. He told me I was the first
• 3:07:37
  person to ask in a very long time.
• 3:07:42
  I may or may. I may or may not have based why.
• 3:07:47
  I mean I based my characters off a couple of different people but
• 3:07:51
  I may or may not have based the character of Thomas Roberts off
• 3:07:55
  of G Gordon Lettie in part I could tell.
• 3:08:03
  And I also and yes I also did base him partially off Steve
• 3:08:08
  too. But, but no, there's actually
• 3:08:14
  there's actually a video from the Rich Nixon Foundation I that
• 3:08:18
  I want to play because if this doesn't sound like Trump I don't
• 3:08:22
  know what, I don't know what else to say.
• 3:08:26
  Then I can tell you the awful thing YouTube did this week.
• 3:08:28
  Since you gave them credit for something.
• 3:08:30
  I need to shit on them. Yeah, what?
• 3:08:33
  Let me bring this up though. Let the man speak, by the way
• 3:08:38
  for for some people that aren't familiar, while you bring it up
• 3:08:42
  I'll give a little a little a little Nixon history here.
• 3:08:46
  A lot of Trump's biggest supporters and speech writers
• 3:08:53
  and stuff, we're mixing guys. They have much more power than
• 3:08:57
  most people would like to think. Roger Stone being one.
• 3:09:01
  Pat McCain and being another. And so, like, the the lineage is
• 3:09:05
  there. So, you know, before you just
• 3:09:08
  dismiss, oh, he was a crook. He was a crook.
• 3:09:11
  You know, maybe look into it. Watergate wasn't what you think.
• 3:09:15
  And he was set up as much as Trump is being set up now.
• 3:09:19
  Yep. And I don't know, I don't know
• 3:09:21
  the date of when this interview was I I looked it up last night
• 3:09:26
  because this is when I found it and I think, I think this was
• 3:09:28
  like in the light seven. I think this might have been in
• 3:09:31
  in the early 80s if I'm not mistaken, but it looks to be
• 3:09:36
  early 80s or late 70s just by the video.
• 3:09:41
  So this video is from the rich Nixon.
• 3:09:45
  I honestly I'm surprised this is even on YouTube that they that
• 3:09:50
  YouTube would allow this. But Nixon media is driven by
• 3:09:55
  self righteousness and doubled standards.
• 3:09:58
  What? What have I heard that before?
• 3:10:02
  Yeah, let's see. Let's play this.
• 3:10:04
  This is kind of eerie how somewhat rings true to today.
• 3:10:08
  And this was in 1980 or something, but they have much
• 3:10:13
  more power than most people would like to think when we
• 3:10:17
  think of the media in this country.
• 3:10:19
  The problem is that they have a sense of self righteousness, a
• 3:10:24
  double standard on issue after issue after issue.
• 3:10:28
  They can find everything wrong with somebody else, but they
• 3:10:30
  will not look inside and ever admit that they could be wrong
• 3:10:34
  themselves. And what was involved here in
• 3:10:37
  the Watergate thing was the unfairness of it.
• 3:10:39
  Oh, there was a legitimate thing to investigate, but they refused
• 3:10:42
  to balance it. They allowed their advocacy to
• 3:10:46
  get ahead of their reporting, which is their job to do.
• 3:10:52
  You know, President Eisenhower and his farewell address wrote
• 3:10:56
  about and warned against the power of the military industrial
• 3:11:01
  complex. I didn't get a chance to make a
• 3:11:04
  farewell address. But when I get old enough and
• 3:11:07
  decide to retire, and I'm not planning it at the moment, but
• 3:11:10
  when I get that old, if I make a farewell address, I think I
• 3:11:14
  would warn against the media elitist complex.
• 3:11:19
  You know, the media is always talking about the the imperial
• 3:11:22
  presidency, the power of the imperial presidency.
• 3:11:26
  I think we ought to hear a little bit of discussion of the
• 3:11:29
  imperial media and its power. You see, presidential power is
• 3:11:34
  limited. Limited by the courts, limited
• 3:11:37
  by the Congress. The media's power is unlimited,
• 3:11:41
  and some would say, but what about libel suits?
• 3:11:43
  Forget it. After the Supreme Court's
• 3:11:46
  decision in Sullivan versus New York Times a few years ago, a
• 3:11:50
  public figure cannot collect in a libel suit against newspaper
• 3:11:53
  or television unless he can prove malice.
• 3:11:57
  And there's no way that that's going to be possible as far as
• 3:12:00
  the media is concerned. All we can hope from them if
• 3:12:04
  they're going to be responsible is self analysis, self criticism
• 3:12:08
  and and some of them are trying with their ombudsman and the
• 3:12:11
  rest. The other thing is competition.
• 3:12:14
  But what we see in terms of newspapers across the country is
• 3:12:17
  more and more places where there's only one paper.
• 3:12:20
  Take Washington, DC Since the Star left the scene, the
• 3:12:24
  Washington Post is the only major newspaper being printed in
• 3:12:27
  the most important capital in the world.
• 3:12:29
  I wouldn't like to leave the fate of this country to the
• 3:12:31
  editors of the Washington Post. Do you think that the has been
• 3:12:36
  misused or abused by reporters? Oh, no question about it.
• 3:12:41
  It's used basically as a license.
• 3:12:43
  He's not wrong. Let's face it, Sullivan versus
• 3:12:46
  New York Times is in effect a license to lie because they can
• 3:12:52
  tell an untruth, print and untruth, which some of them
• 3:12:54
  consciously do if it's going to sell newspapers or what have you
• 3:12:58
  or win a prize. And then they can always get
• 3:13:01
  behind the barrier under that case of saying, well, I didn't
• 3:13:04
  intend any malice, I had no malice.
• 3:13:07
  So that's a terribly cynical approach though to people who
• 3:13:10
  were doing their best, who are going to work, who are trying to
• 3:13:13
  maybe trying to sell paper certainly, but are trying to
• 3:13:15
  tell the truth. Let me say, right at the outset
• 3:13:19
  of this conversation, I made it clear that I was not speaking
• 3:13:22
  personally. I was not speaking generally.
• 3:13:25
  Yeah, stop getting. But Speaking of what I have
• 3:13:28
  found to be an unfortunate majority at the present time, I
• 3:13:32
  think it could change. There are a lot of very good,
• 3:13:35
  responsible reporters, particularly in the writing
• 3:13:37
  press. Not yet that much in television
• 3:13:40
  because television is So unfortunately that's no longer
• 3:13:43
  true. But yeah, consumed with ratings
• 3:13:47
  of the rest, they'll do almost anything to get a story.
• 3:13:49
  Is there any way to to get some kind of a handle on this
• 3:13:54
  situation? Should the media be
• 3:13:55
  investigated? It?
• 3:13:56
  Should it be controlled? No.
• 3:13:58
  I may disagree, for example, with what some president does
• 3:14:01
  with his power, but I don't want to abolish the presidency or I
• 3:14:04
  don't want to control it. The same is true with the press.
• 3:14:07
  I believe in a Free Press. I do not want government control
• 3:14:10
  under any circumstances or government censorship of either
• 3:14:13
  radio, television or newspapers. But I'm simply suggesting here
• 3:14:18
  that all of the media should look within themselves, look
• 3:14:22
  through that microscope at themselves, look in the Mirror
• 3:14:25
  Now and then rather than looking out there to others.
• 3:14:29
  Yeah, that was what do you fucking do it?
• 3:14:33
  They'll never. They never have.
• 3:14:35
  Yeah, that that was 40, some odd years ago.
• 3:14:38
  Now that he gave that interview and not a damn thing has
• 3:14:42
  changed. If anything, it's gotten worse.
• 3:14:45
  Well, look at look at the publications he named.
• 3:14:48
  New York Times, Washington Post. Those are still the biggest
• 3:14:53
  offenders. They're still the biggest.
• 3:14:55
  But he mentioned that TV was a little different.
• 3:14:59
  Yeah, this was before 24 hour news channels, wasn't it?
• 3:15:02
  Yeah, this was about 15 years before CNN and and and the the
• 3:15:08
  Internet forget that. That wasn't even the the
• 3:15:11
  Internet wasn't even on the horizon, you know, at that
• 3:15:16
  point. But, you know, aside from all
• 3:15:22
  that it could, what he's saying there could just as easily apply
• 3:15:28
  to today. And that's what Trump has.
• 3:15:31
  Trump has basically been saying what he's been.
• 3:15:34
  Trump basically said in 2016 and in 2024 what Nixon was saying
• 3:15:40
  back in 1980. Because time is a flat circle.
• 3:15:46
  Yeah, you know, no, it really is.
• 3:15:50
  And these, The funny thing is, is these issues kind of faded.
• 3:15:54
  You know, the younger people might not get this, but these
• 3:15:57
  issues kind of faded from popular discussion over the 90s
• 3:16:04
  and early 2000s. And there were less people
• 3:16:06
  talking about the biases in journalism and such.
• 3:16:10
  You know, obviously you got guys like Rush that were like
• 3:16:13
  obviously pointing it out. But for the most part, you know,
• 3:16:19
  it was like, Oh yeah, the media is neutral.
• 3:16:22
  A lot of people thought specifically CNN when it came
• 3:16:25
  out, a lot of people thought it was neutral.
• 3:16:27
  Yeah, a lot of people for a long time thought that it was
• 3:16:34
  neutral. So, yeah, but you can see, you
• 3:16:38
  can see that was the early versions of Woke in CNN right
• 3:16:42
  from the get go. They were talking about
• 3:16:44
  environmentalism. They were talking about climate
• 3:16:46
  change, like right from the outset of the company.
• 3:16:49
  Because that's what Ted Turner was into.
• 3:16:51
  He was a far lefty. Yeah.
• 3:16:53
  Well, well, I mentioned and also insane.
• 3:16:58
  Yeah. Well, I mentioned Jane Fonda.
• 3:17:00
  Ted Turner was married to Jane Fonda for a long time.
• 3:17:04
  And, you know, she's been on the environmental bandwagon for, you
• 3:17:10
  know, forever. He also is is very likely the
• 3:17:13
  one that put up those Georgia guidestones that people freak
• 3:17:16
  out about. Yeah, The one.
• 3:17:19
  Oh, yeah, that. Oh, yeah, that's right.
• 3:17:22
  Yeah. I mean, there's very few other
• 3:17:25
  people no longer exist. Yeah, there's very few other
• 3:17:28
  people based in Georgia who would have had the resources and
• 3:17:33
  the mindset to do that. It was definitely a Ted Turner
• 3:17:38
  thing. He can deny it.
• 3:17:40
  Yeah, and he did. He denied it till he was.
• 3:17:43
  Dude, come on. And just just for those that
• 3:17:46
  aren't aware of the Georgia guide stones, these were these
• 3:17:49
  stones put up mysteriously that gave basically rules on how to
• 3:17:54
  fix the planet. And the biggest one was to keep
• 3:17:57
  the entire human population under 500,000.
• 3:18:01
  So essentially, these stones were calling for the death of,
• 3:18:04
  what, 7 billion people? Yeah.
• 3:18:12
  And yeah, Ted Turner put him up. He's been, you know, they talk
• 3:18:14
  about D growth, right? Ted Turner was the original D
• 3:18:18
  growth guy. Yeah, I fuck.
• 3:18:24
  I I can't. Let me just put it this way.
• 3:18:28
  There's a medium mogul character in my books who I based off.
• 3:18:36
  Ted. Ted Turner.
• 3:18:41
  The fact, the fact that like that no one else, that no one to
• 3:18:46
  my knowledge, well, has actually made like a villain out of him
• 3:18:50
  yet, and media is kind of astounding because he has the
• 3:18:55
  makings of like, a great diabolical villain.
• 3:19:01
  To be fair, Vince McMahon did in 1996 with the billionaire Ted
• 3:19:05
  Sketches based. Let me tell you something, the
• 3:19:12
  Nacho man, that shit was hilarious.
• 3:19:15
  I don't give a fuck. People are I I see a lot of
• 3:19:17
  wrestling fans that think that shit's like lame now, but man, I
• 3:19:21
  that shit cracked me up. Well look, poco getting a
• 3:19:24
  Walker, people people like to shit on Tomorrow Never Dies,
• 3:19:31
  which is one of the Pierce Brosnan James Bond movies.
• 3:19:35
  But I mean they basically did the same thing where like Ted
• 3:19:38
  Turner was, they made like a Ted Turner character who was like a
• 3:19:45
  terrorist, but he would. So what he would do in the movie
• 3:19:51
  was he would do like a terrorist attack, but then right about the
• 3:19:55
  terrorist attack like the day before it.
• 3:20:01
  It happened so like his newspaper and websites could
• 3:20:06
  like report on it before anyone else did, right?
• 3:20:09
  So he so in the movie, he basically like created false
• 3:20:13
  flag tear and everyone back then was like, oh, this is super
• 3:20:20
  unrealistic and whatnot. And that's why it got Meanwhile,
• 3:20:25
  meanwhile, literally at the time Bill Clinton is wagging the dog
• 3:20:28
  doing exactly, yeah, well well, well.
• 3:20:32
  There's also a movie called Wet Wag the Dog Two around that
• 3:20:38
  time. So totally unrealistic, though
• 3:20:43
  also peg pussy smoke. Also, people are mad at Pierce
• 3:20:48
  Brosnan because Pierce Brosnan endorsed Robert Kennedy instead
• 3:20:53
  of Biden. Sure.
• 3:20:59
  I mean, yeah, look, if you endorse, I mean you endorse the
• 3:21:04
  guy that's gonna lose anyway. I don't understand why people
• 3:21:06
  get so mad about that. I I'm not even going to get mad
• 3:21:12
  at anybody that endorsed DeSantis, for example.
• 3:21:14
  Like, whatever. They seem to be enough enough
• 3:21:21
  damage to themselves at this point, and they seem very mad,
• 3:21:24
  but that's them, you know? Hey DeSantis.
• 3:21:28
  Thermers have been shitting on you a long time but once he
• 3:21:31
  drops out you know you're welcome.
• 3:21:34
  Look look even even the even the RFK people the fact that that
• 3:21:39
  even the RFK junior people the fact that you're splitting away
• 3:21:42
  from people away from Joe Biden. Good, good.
• 3:21:47
  And then when he's taken out you're welcome to look the the
• 3:21:50
  IT really is the people versus Joe Biden now.
• 3:21:55
  Yeah it is if you're you're either on that team you can be
• 3:21:59
  on Joe Biden's team too I guess. But, like, that seems pretty,
• 3:22:03
  unless you're part of the elite. That seems stupid and seems
• 3:22:08
  against your best interest. But yeah, I'll I'll turn around
• 3:22:14
  and accept the people that voted for Joe Biden twice later on
• 3:22:17
  when they figure out they're wrong.
• 3:22:19
  Well, no. What's what's in?
• 3:22:20
  What's interesting is that like, both Eric Clapton, Eric
• 3:22:24
  Clapton's another one that like, you know, endorsed RFK Junior.
• 3:22:28
  And like, I don't know, but like, I would certainly consider
• 3:22:34
  Eric Clapton to maybe be, like considered one of the elite,
• 3:22:38
  quote UN quote. Well, I mean, they wouldn't.
• 3:22:47
  Not well, Not Not anymore. Not after what he Not after what
• 3:22:51
  he said about the Vax. No, they wouldn't.
• 3:22:53
  Before he said stuff about the vaccines, before COVID he was
• 3:22:58
  because this is Sun dying. Yeah, he's been very anti
• 3:23:02
  vaccine and I mean childhood vaccines.
• 3:23:04
  He's been anti childhood vaccine since the 90s.
• 3:23:09
  So he's not really part of their thing.
• 3:23:11
  It's just that you were allowed to be anti vaccine and a
• 3:23:14
  Democrat until very recently. Now you're not right.
• 3:23:19
  Which is funny 'cause they're conflating the COVID vaccine
• 3:23:22
  with the other vaccines. And it's also funny 'cause the
• 3:23:25
  anti Vaxxers on the right do the same thing now.
• 3:23:28
  Yeah they're not the same thing like you got no I individually
• 3:23:32
  but yeah well look I was never considered an anti I I'm not an
• 3:23:37
  anti Vaxxer generally but like because I anti COVID VAX.
• 3:23:43
  Yeah but and like look Max and I have talked about this and I'm
• 3:23:50
  sure I don't want to speak. I'm I'm anti mandatory vaccines
• 3:23:56
  pretty much across the board I think Look if you want to be the
• 3:23:59
  parent that doesn't get your kid childhood vaccines and I have a
• 3:24:02
  friend like this or a former friend and that's why we're not
• 3:24:06
  friends. It's because they can't respect
• 3:24:09
  my decision. Not the other way around.
• 3:24:12
  Right. No.
• 3:24:14
  But like but like I don't I don't want my son to die of
• 3:24:18
  measles, mumps or rubella like happened to so many children 100
• 3:24:21
  years ago when they didn't have vaccines for that.
• 3:24:23
  You know, if you had five children in 1922, of them would
• 3:24:27
  die before they reached 18 years old.
• 3:24:33
  And that's because of child preventable childhood diseases
• 3:24:35
  that we can prevent now. Now I get it, People are like,
• 3:24:38
  oh, but it causes autism. I'd actually, here's the thing,
• 3:24:42
  Sam. If they said, here's your
• 3:24:44
  choice, your your child, you know you're about to have a son.
• 3:24:49
  Your child can have either autism, which vaccines don't
• 3:24:54
  cause autism, but let's just pretend they do.
• 3:24:58
  Or. Or scarlet fever and go deaf,
• 3:25:03
  blind and dumb like Helen Keller, Which would you prefer?
• 3:25:11
  Autism? See, Yeah, yeah, autism's a lot
• 3:25:15
  more minor in comparison, isn't it?
• 3:25:18
  Now that's if you assume that that question is easy to answer
• 3:25:23
  for almost anybody and that's if you assume that vaccines do
• 3:25:26
  'cause them. I well, evidence suggested that
• 3:25:30
  we don't but and the study that they did was completely
• 3:25:34
  fabricated. And the I want to point this out
• 3:25:36
  because it's important the doctor that put out that study
• 3:25:39
  retracted it and then lost his medical license because he
• 3:25:42
  didn't actually even do a study. He made it up.
• 3:25:46
  So vaccine. Well, my whole thing was like,
• 3:25:49
  I, I and I've talked to this before, I never took a flu
• 3:25:53
  vaccine when I was when I was like a kid, just because like,
• 3:26:00
  and I have no scientific evidence to back this up.
• 3:26:04
  But just from my experiences, every single time I got the got
• 3:26:10
  the flu vaccine, I got the flu and then the years I didn't, I
• 3:26:14
  never got the flu right. I know it could just be
• 3:26:17
  coincidental, I'll admit that. But after a while, I just never
• 3:26:22
  took the flu vaccine. Here's the difference.
• 3:26:25
  Nobody had a problem with me not taking the flu vaccine, right?
• 3:26:30
  But the thing you would, you would refuse the flu vaccine.
• 3:26:33
  And even doctors and she'd be all right.
• 3:26:35
  Cool. Yeah.
• 3:26:36
  But they like, say, hey, you should get it because blah,
• 3:26:39
  blah, blah, blah, blah. But they're not going to, you
• 3:26:41
  know, they're just like, OK, totally understand.
• 3:26:43
  Well, not anymore. Now they want to.
• 3:26:46
  I I'm telling you from experience, they want to push
• 3:26:48
  the flu vaccine. Like, it's this big deal.
• 3:26:51
  All of a sudden, I'm like, you look at my records.
• 3:26:53
  You know I've never taken one, right?
• 3:26:55
  Right. Yeah.
• 3:26:57
  But why is it different now? You know, it's not COVID.
• 3:27:01
  I've had the flu. It's not that big a fucking
• 3:27:06
  deal. That's that's the way I look.
• 3:27:08
  And COVID is the same for me. I'm not an old, sick person.
• 3:27:12
  And it's very tragic that so many old sick people died of
• 3:27:15
  COVID. But I'm not one of them.
• 3:27:18
  Look I got COVID and I actually look, you know, I I actually got
• 3:27:23
  COVID somewhat. I wouldn't say horribly, but
• 3:27:27
  like yeah, it wasn't fun and Shmuley, but I I took, I took
• 3:27:35
  the dreaded ivermectin, which by the way is not, is not horse
• 3:27:39
  paced. I mean it can be but not.
• 3:27:44
  But there are different varieties.
• 3:27:45
  And the The thing is, is that's dishonest too, because it's like
• 3:27:52
  you could say the same thing about any antibiotic, right?
• 3:27:58
  Or any antiviral. Oh, they give that to dogs?
• 3:28:02
  Yeah, because it's an antibiotic, you fucking moron.
• 3:28:07
  Point is is I is like I took ivermectin and literally the the
• 3:28:12
  1st so laying and having a craving for hay and wanting to
• 3:28:17
  run through a field right. Well no what So what happened
• 3:28:20
  was the first day I had COVID this how it felt.
• 3:28:24
  It felt like I I could not breathe because it felt like I
• 3:28:29
  had a boot on my back where my where my lung where my lungs
• 3:28:36
  are. I I I mean, I felt like I was
• 3:28:39
  being crushed. It was it was extremely painful.
• 3:28:45
  My mom gave me ivermectin. Literally an hour later.
• 3:28:51
  I felt like I I could breathe again.
• 3:28:52
  I was still in bad shape, but I could, I could at least breathe
• 3:28:57
  comfortably. Got another comment real quick
• 3:29:01
  here from Dip. He says he was in the hospital
• 3:29:04
  and overheard a doctor and a patient talk about how they had
• 3:29:07
  had six boosters for COVID. Yeah, I I don't get it.
• 3:29:17
  I don't get it. You know that there's not even
• 3:29:20
  science behind one booster. No, No, there's not.
• 3:29:25
  Not even. It's technically not a booster.
• 3:29:27
  That's the same shot. They're just giving you more of
• 3:29:29
  it. Yeah.
• 3:29:32
  Well, and like, I don't know the conspiracy, there's like, at
• 3:29:35
  what point, like when did the boosters make you sick?
• 3:29:39
  Like eventually if you fill your body up with like, most of the
• 3:29:43
  people, most of the people, 'cause you've heard a lot of
• 3:29:47
  people pointing out died suddenly was is a thing, right?
• 3:29:50
  And And yeah, people that had myocardiitis and stuff, and
• 3:29:55
  people were like, it's the vax. It's the Vax, actually.
• 3:29:57
  It's the correlation. Is the booster specifically.
• 3:30:01
  Yeah, because I got the VAX. I didn't get a single fucking
• 3:30:05
  booster. I'm fine, right?
• 3:30:08
  But I know people who got the booster and are now experiencing
• 3:30:12
  heart problems and other things, and I know people that got
• 3:30:15
  multiple boosters who have had fainting spells and all kinds of
• 3:30:20
  fucking shit. I went to I went to school with
• 3:30:24
  with like student athletes who are in better shape than I am
• 3:30:28
  and they got the boosters. And like, I I hate to make this
• 3:30:32
  joke, but some of them are like more are crippled.
• 3:30:35
  Maybe not in the same way I am like one of them like temporal
• 3:30:39
  lost function of his arm. Yeah, literally life changing
• 3:30:44
  shit. Yeah, it's it's awful, you know?
• 3:30:49
  I know. I just think that I mean I've
• 3:30:52
  been saying this since the the Ice Cube episode, right.
• 3:30:57
  It's your personal health information and it's nobody
• 3:31:00
  else's fucking business unless you want to fucking share it.
• 3:31:03
  And especially that goes for the government.
• 3:31:07
  That goes triple for the it's not the government's business of
• 3:31:09
  my health decisions. Yeah.
• 3:31:12
  And it and and yeah, it's not the government's place to force
• 3:31:16
  them on me. It it's it's not the
• 3:31:18
  government's position. It's also not the fucking Mobs,
• 3:31:22
  you know? And when I mean the mob, I mean
• 3:31:27
  like, I don't mean like the mafia.
• 3:31:29
  I mean like a mob of people. I'm going to make you right.
• 3:31:32
  You can't refuse. You're going to take the vax.
• 3:31:34
  So you're going to wake up with a fucking horse head.
• 3:31:36
  You know what I mean? Well, I mean, I'm just picturing
• 3:31:40
  a bunch of Sicilians. Like, have you taken your
• 3:31:42
  fucking vax yet, buddy? Well, well, no.
• 3:31:45
  The the. I'm going to have to break your
• 3:31:47
  fucking legs, Sir. I I feel, I feel like bad.
• 3:31:51
  Break them, bitch. Yeah, they're all they're
• 3:31:55
  already. They're all I've already
• 3:31:57
  crippled. What else can you do?
• 3:32:02
  No, but the but the the most irritating thing was if you
• 3:32:08
  don't. And this was in Florida, even if
• 3:32:11
  you don't wear a mask you want, you must want grandma to to die.
• 3:32:19
  That was like the weakest. I just started saying, yeah,
• 3:32:22
  fuck her, my my grandmother don't have a response.
• 3:32:28
  When you say that they don't have a response because they
• 3:32:32
  because because you're admitting the thing that they're saying
• 3:32:36
  and it's like, yeah, fuck her, I don't care.
• 3:32:38
  Not my problem. No, I I I no, I fucked with, I
• 3:32:41
  whoa, I didn't go that far. I fucked with by saying no my my
• 3:32:47
  grandmother doesn't want the vaccine either and she's in her
• 3:32:51
  80s. They don't have another quick
• 3:32:54
  one here. It's 'cause it's relevant.
• 3:32:57
  Humongous, a member of our gilded's been blowing up with
• 3:33:01
  chat tonight, which is cool. Hey, if you're a normal chatter,
• 3:33:06
  maybe come join our gilded. I will put the link in chat, you
• 3:33:10
  know, as soon as I stop running my fucking mouth.
• 3:33:14
  So Tay says I had the one vax, no boosters.
• 3:33:18
  How many boosters even are there?
• 3:33:20
  Probably in the triple digits by now?
• 3:33:22
  He's not wrong, but the problem is, is that the booster is just
• 3:33:26
  that first shot again and again and again and again and again.
• 3:33:30
  And I think that these injuries are essentially from an overdose
• 3:33:36
  in, in the most simple terms possible.
• 3:33:38
  I'm not a science guy. I'm not a doctor, but what I'm
• 3:33:43
  seeing is a lot of people who get vaccine injured by the COVID
• 3:33:47
  Vax are the ones taking boosters and potentially multiple
• 3:33:50
  boosters. So yeah, I I steer clear of it,
• 3:33:55
  but but but also I'm not telling anybody what to do with their
• 3:33:59
  health. You make your own decisions
• 3:34:01
  because I have faith that you are a smart individual and can
• 3:34:05
  make the best decision for yourself.
• 3:34:07
  Yeah, that well. And that is one thing I want to
• 3:34:11
  bring up kind of kind of related, but also just in
• 3:34:15
  general, Jimmy, Jimmy brought this up last night and you saw
• 3:34:20
  this comment, but but Jimmy actually acknowledged the fact
• 3:34:24
  that like I and I think he included you in this too.
• 3:34:29
  We respect the audience's intelligence and you know trot
• 3:34:35
  and we don't try and like talk down to people.
• 3:34:39
  And I mean yeah, I appreciate that.
• 3:34:41
  I've I've always tried to do that.
• 3:34:43
  I'm not perfect. But yeah I try and meet people
• 3:34:48
  where there. I mean I speak for myself here
• 3:34:51
  but if if I wanted to I could do the things that people who don't
• 3:34:56
  respect their audience do. I can talk like this guys.
• 3:35:01
  Hi guys. Today we're going to anybody can
• 3:35:05
  fucking do that. But I'm when I'm doing that, I'm
• 3:35:09
  assuming that you're fucking five years old.
• 3:35:12
  You know what I mean, right? Or or also screening up.
• 3:35:17
  Don't know. Like there there are streamers,
• 3:35:22
  embers who call their, who call their audience literal, literal
• 3:35:27
  pay pigs, which like if it works I guess it's just silly but if
• 3:35:35
  it works but like that's kind of demeaning.
• 3:35:39
  So I was like what what what do we say by by Sam's book, right.
• 3:35:44
  Don't, don't. I mean look we're not going to
• 3:35:47
  tell anybody don't super chat. Don't, don't it And super
• 3:35:50
  chatting by the way on rumble just to be clear the split is
• 3:35:54
  100% for Sam. Yes, like YouTube where they
• 3:35:58
  take a whole big cut the splits 100%.
• 3:36:02
  So if you want, if you want to donate through that way, that's
• 3:36:07
  absolutely fine. But you notice we're not going
• 3:36:09
  to sit here and show it. What are we going to show Sam?
• 3:36:13
  Well, First off, I I'm going to change things up a little bit.
• 3:36:18
  I'm going to say before I show my book, I want to announce that
• 3:36:23
  my friend Eric Bishop, friend of the show, he re released his
• 3:36:30
  first book under his own in print.
• 3:36:33
  Now The Body Man, I don't know. The layman means he's going to
• 3:36:38
  get a much nicer cut. If you buy this version it it's
• 3:36:42
  cheaper too. It's only like $5 under his new
• 3:36:47
  thing, so you know, go and buy this.
• 3:36:53
  Also, as I mentioned on Twitter yesterday, if you're going to
• 3:36:56
  buy a Kindle, buy them refurbished because they're only
• 3:37:01
  $60.00 refurbished. But if you want to buy my book,
• 3:37:08
  and you do, you know it's great. And you can buy Shadows of
• 3:37:15
  Deception on Amazon 999 for the paperback, 799 for the Kindle
• 3:37:27
  edition, and please leave a review.
• 3:37:33
  Very much so. Also, I believe if you do the
• 3:37:36
  Kindle subscription, you can get that version with the
• 3:37:42
  subscription, correct? Yeah, right.
• 3:37:45
  Oh yeah. And you can get Eric and you can
• 3:37:47
  get Eric's book on Kindle Unlimited too.
• 3:37:52
  So there you go. And then and then leave reviews
• 3:37:54
  because they really, really do help.
• 3:37:56
  But here's what I what I would say about that.
• 3:37:59
  Johnny Fox does a lot of fake reviews.
• 3:38:02
  He does review groups, OK? And what they do in their
• 3:38:05
  reviews is they don't actually read the book.
• 3:38:07
  They're all cross promoting each other like a bunch of fucking
• 3:38:11
  grifters. And so they'll they'll say, oh,
• 3:38:14
  it's a great book, best I've ever read.
• 3:38:16
  If you write a review for Sam's book, mention what you liked
• 3:38:19
  about it, specifically story, characters, name the characters,
• 3:38:24
  show us that you've read the book.
• 3:38:27
  That helps so much, because then people know it's not fake.
• 3:38:31
  They know that you've actually read the book and you actually
• 3:38:33
  like it. Well, also also pro tip, don't
• 3:38:40
  review, don't review the book the same day you bought it
• 3:38:45
  because that's like another. Yeah.
• 3:38:49
  And once you're like an alter with like with a shorter book,
• 3:38:53
  like a novella. OK, yeah, maybe I can see that
• 3:38:57
  like with one of mine. But like, yeah, just give it a
• 3:39:00
  day or two at least. Yeah, give it.
• 3:39:02
  Give it a day or two. And I we would, we would love
• 3:39:07
  you to give it five stars, but give it your honest review.
• 3:39:12
  So I mean, so far it's gotten 55 out of five.
• 3:39:16
  So yeah, I'm not, I'm not going to sit here and say you have to
• 3:39:19
  give them five stars, give them, give them what you feel it's
• 3:39:22
  worth. We would appreciate five stars
• 3:39:25
  and given a review at all. And also, well, we're talking
• 3:39:32
  reviews. If, if you do like the if you
• 3:39:35
  like the podcast on Spotify, Wave stars there too.
• 3:39:41
  I don't think. I don't think there's a way to
• 3:39:42
  write reviews on Spotify yet there there should be.
• 3:39:50
  And then if you're on Rumble, unlike YouTube you can actually
• 3:39:56
  download videos on Rumble. So if you want to I would
• 3:40:03
  appreciate you're up though. But if for some reason you don't
• 3:40:06
  like this episode. Get us your down boat, too.
• 3:40:10
  And I totally would understand that 'cause I'm a little buzzed
• 3:40:16
  right now. I I'm always sober on the show.
• 3:40:20
  So well, I guess, unless you count smoking pot well.
• 3:40:24
  And what? And listen, I know.
• 3:40:26
  I know that the. I know that.
• 3:40:28
  Like someone on Twitter just just tagged me and this is a
• 3:40:33
  fair criticism. I'm.
• 3:40:34
  I'm drinking Guinness from a from a can was like was like a
• 3:40:38
  no, no. So if you want to download
• 3:40:41
  because of that, I understand that too.
• 3:40:44
  But you know my my glasses are in the dishwasher and I ran out
• 3:40:53
  of Yuengling, so this is all I have.
• 3:40:59
  And I guess Mort had a quote full browser crash just in case.
• 3:41:04
  Anybody wondered. Yeah, but yeah.
• 3:41:09
  And the other thing is I am working on the Pussy Smoked
• 3:41:13
  T-shirts. We're also.
• 3:41:14
  So I asked a question and I asked if people would prefer the
• 3:41:18
  cheaper shirts or the higher quality shirts.
• 3:41:21
  And universally the answer from people who did answer was that
• 3:41:26
  they would prefer the higher quality shirts.
• 3:41:29
  I do think the price is still going to be in the $50 range
• 3:41:33
  before tax and shipping. Yeah, that's gonna be the pussy
• 3:41:37
  smoke shirt. We're gonna put a lot of effort
• 3:41:38
  into it. We're gonna make sure it's like,
• 3:41:40
  cool, But we're gonna do both. So there's gonna be a more
• 3:41:46
  simple, maybe a little more tasteful in public than Pussy
• 3:41:51
  Smoke shirt that is mainly just a, you know, Whitfield Report
• 3:41:56
  logo shirt. And we're gonna do that through
• 3:41:59
  the cheaper one and try to get them out there for as as cheap
• 3:42:03
  as possible. So we're going to do both.
• 3:42:07
  And if you if you just want to get the shirt to support the
• 3:42:11
  show, cool. You might want to go with the
• 3:42:14
  with the the regular design. But if you really want something
• 3:42:19
  nice and a little better design the pussy smoke T-shirts.
• 3:42:22
  I can. I can guarantee we'll have it
• 3:42:26
  hashed out by March at the latest.
• 3:42:28
  But we're really putting a lot of effort into we don't want to
• 3:42:32
  sell you crap, No. And we don't want to beg you to
• 3:42:36
  just throw money because that's what, like mersh does, right?
• 3:42:40
  And it's fucking tasteless. And we don't like.
• 3:42:44
  I'm not saying that the money wouldn't help, OK?
• 3:42:48
  But we don't need your money. We're not going to kill
• 3:42:51
  ourselves like Mersh if you don't donate money.
• 3:42:55
  We both have income. We're we're going to be OK.
• 3:43:00
  We just enjoy doing the show. So if you appreciate us, that's
• 3:43:03
  great, right? But we would rather provide you
• 3:43:07
  with high quality. Yeah.
• 3:43:09
  Well and I would also go a step further, like if you want to
• 3:43:12
  give me money, like, yeah, if, if, if you want to super chat
• 3:43:17
  me, like by all means I'm not going to stop you.
• 3:43:21
  But it would mean a lot also if you were to buy the book and
• 3:43:28
  give me a royalty that way. Yeah, I I the book is a bigger
• 3:43:31
  deal because the more sales it gets in the book, the more sales
• 3:43:34
  he's going to get. So everyone he sells is not.
• 3:43:37
  And This is why we pushed the book because it's a much better
• 3:43:42
  strategy. And no matter if you buy it in
• 3:43:46
  you know in paperback or e-book format, you get something in in
• 3:43:50
  return. And you know that's, I mean I'm,
• 3:43:56
  I'm a capitalist, so I definitely, I I like that I'm
• 3:44:02
  looking at marketing opportunities for something to
• 3:44:05
  give. Again I want, I want you to have
• 3:44:09
  something in return. And again and the book is the
• 3:44:13
  best way right now and it probably will even after the
• 3:44:17
  T-shirts probably be the best thing to do.
• 3:44:20
  But the Pussy smoke T-shirts just going to be too funny.
• 3:44:23
  Yeah, I'll tell you right now, the rough idea is a cartoon cat
• 3:44:28
  and its tail is on fire and then the smoke from the fire comes up
• 3:44:35
  and it forms the hashtag pussy smoke text and then all over the
• 3:44:40
  rest of the shirt is going to be like equations in things I made
• 3:44:44
  out of smoke as well to represent the great math work.
• 3:44:50
  I want to call him Doctor Craig, but he's not a doctor yet.
• 3:44:54
  He will be very soon. You know what?
• 3:44:57
  Like I realize that people don't have to wear that in public, but
• 3:45:01
  like I I can't speak of him for for the rest of the country.
• 3:45:05
  But like in, in Florida at least, you can definitely wear
• 3:45:09
  that T-shirt out in Papua. I think with the cat.
• 3:45:13
  I think with the cat makes it. That's kind of why I'm doing
• 3:45:16
  that design makes it so you could wear it in public a little
• 3:45:21
  bit. And again.
• 3:45:22
  Also This is why I want to offer another alternative, less edgy
• 3:45:26
  T-shirt if you want AT shirt you don't want to wear pussy smoke.
• 3:45:34
  Makes sense to me. I'll probably get one of each
• 3:45:38
  myself. Well, and people have also asked
• 3:45:42
  me if I'm going to do like a mug or something at that at some
• 3:45:46
  point, maybe. What about Beerstein?
• 3:45:53
  Wouldn't that be better than a mug because everybody does mugs.
• 3:45:56
  You know what? You know what, Max, Actually,
• 3:46:00
  that's a good point because I am a beer.
• 3:46:02
  I am. People know I'm a beer drinker.
• 3:46:05
  So it would kind of, it would be more, it would be more
• 3:46:09
  appropriate. Yeah, I get you.
• 3:46:11
  You guys all want to like make fun of Steven Crowder for doing
• 3:46:15
  you know it's kind of me at this point right with with Crowder
• 3:46:20
  and the we'll do the beer Club Fuck Your Mug Club.
• 3:46:24
  We'll do the Beer Club, Beer club.
• 3:46:29
  You know what I actually it it's no longer around anymore but
• 3:46:33
  like a couple friends of mine in college actually they they did a
• 3:46:37
  week a weekly podcast. I can't remember the name.
• 3:46:42
  It was like it was really short, like vlog, but they did a weekly
• 3:46:46
  beer review and it was actually pretty good.
• 3:46:49
  So yeah, join the beer club. That sounds good.
• 3:46:57
  It sounds better than the mug club.
• 3:46:59
  Honestly, I'd be way more likely to join a beer club than a mug
• 3:47:04
  club. My my Crowd mug has not held up
• 3:47:08
  great either and I I've only I've only hand washed it.
• 3:47:12
  But for the people that bought my cringing over coffee mugs,
• 3:47:17
  they say they held up all right, but well, apparently I didn't
• 3:47:22
  pie one well well, apparently your mugs.
• 3:47:27
  Apparently your mug held it better than Steven Crowder's
• 3:47:30
  like $70.00. A hand edged Yeah, mine was
• 3:47:34
  like, mine was like $13. Like, I'm not going to deny all
• 3:47:42
  the cringing over coffee merchandise we ever did.
• 3:47:45
  I sold at cost. I never made a dime.
• 3:47:50
  Which shows you how much I care about grifting off of you lovely
• 3:47:54
  people. Not at all.
• 3:47:57
  Oh, I I love the fact that me selling the book makes me no.
• 3:48:01
  Makes me grifter, supposedly. No, it it doesn't.
• 3:48:08
  I wrote There's no grip. You're paying money for a book.
• 3:48:12
  Yeah, right. That's not a grift.
• 3:48:14
  There's no scam involved. There's no sleight of hand.
• 3:48:18
  He wrote a book. It's good.
• 3:48:20
  I've read it. I'm not in.
• 3:48:23
  The other thing is too like, I'm not saying that the book will
• 3:48:26
  save a man. This is the like.
• 3:48:28
  I will admit that like a lot of the right wing grifters will
• 3:48:32
  save. No.
• 3:48:32
  But if you sell enough, it might get you the fucking wheelchair
• 3:48:34
  that we've been bitching about all fucking year.
• 3:48:38
  Right. Let's let, like let's be real
• 3:48:39
  like it could improve his life. He's it's not going to save the
• 3:48:43
  fucking world. I mean with with Amazon's
• 3:48:48
  royalty way, right. I would have to sell a lot of
• 3:48:52
  fucking books. I mean at the at that point we
• 3:48:57
  might as well do a GoFundMe or something and probably get like
• 3:49:01
  little. But I've I've considered that.
• 3:49:04
  But it's just like even though it's legitimate, it just feels
• 3:49:08
  bad, doesn't it? You know what?
• 3:49:10
  You know what though? Like this.
• 3:49:12
  This is another like not to get back on to Trump too much, but
• 3:49:16
  like this, this is another case for like for Trump.
• 3:49:20
  Like Trump actually wanted to re wanted to repeal Obamacare and
• 3:49:26
  replace it with something like I actually read his healthcare
• 3:49:31
  policy and it actually seemed pretty decent.
• 3:49:40
  And for whatever reason the the Republicans, they just never
• 3:49:43
  came up with a good proposal because they were in opposition
• 3:49:51
  to Trump for the first two years of his presidency.
• 3:49:53
  Which everybody forgets. Yeah, they passed 0 legislation
• 3:49:58
  through the first two years where they had control of both
• 3:50:01
  the House and the Senate that tells you everything you need to
• 3:50:04
  know. They didn't pass anything.
• 3:50:06
  They never sent anything to his desk when they had control.
• 3:50:10
  And the biggest one he was saying was the healthcare one.
• 3:50:12
  And then when they finally said we're never going to fucking get
• 3:50:15
  a healthcare one, he said, all right, well I'm going to get rid
• 3:50:17
  of the mandate Biden has reinstated by the way.
• 3:50:21
  And yeah, alone. I'm going to tell you this.
• 3:50:24
  That alone Trump coming in, if he gets rid of the mandate
• 3:50:29
  again, which he absolutely will, will change people's lives for
• 3:50:33
  the better. The the, the, the $1000 a year
• 3:50:39
  really fucks some people over the well, the the the the ACA.
• 3:50:45
  Everybody can afford a fucking insurance plan and then it's
• 3:50:49
  like, oh you can't afford an insurance plan.
• 3:50:51
  Hey, pay us $2000. Like.
• 3:50:54
  Well, the the fact that, like, Even so, when I applaud, when I
• 3:51:01
  went through the whole paperwork to do, to get my wheelchair the
• 3:51:07
  first time, I was on my mother's private insurance that she had
• 3:51:11
  through their company, right? But it was under the Biden
• 3:51:15
  presidency. Under the Biden presidency, even
• 3:51:20
  private insurers had to go under the Medicaid rules for durable
• 3:51:29
  medical equipment, which essentially without boring
• 3:51:32
  people, with all the technical jargon, I had to learn and
• 3:51:37
  study. Basically, I wasn't eligible to
• 3:51:40
  get a new wheelchair because the government said so, right?
• 3:51:47
  And and we also discovered at the when we were talking about
• 3:51:51
  this, they'll they'll pay 50 grand for one single trans
• 3:51:57
  transition and that doesn't necessarily include surgery. 50
• 3:52:01
  grand for that, 50 grand for that.
• 3:52:03
  You could get Sam. 5 wheelchairs for that.
• 3:52:07
  Yeah. And 55 nice ones to at at that
• 3:52:16
  and and how many how many veterans could use a nice
• 3:52:18
  wheelchair you know but no we got to have this 18 year old
• 3:52:22
  autistic liberal get her trans surgery to be pretend she's a
• 3:52:27
  little boy. Yeah, Trump, I I kind of, I kind
• 3:52:38
  of want to fly. I kind of want to fly now if I,
• 3:52:40
  if I'm, if I'm being honest to to match yours.
• 3:52:47
  I I think. I think, I think Max's banner
• 3:52:52
  basically says my I mean, I I I got it specifically because of
• 3:52:58
  the slogan take America back, right.
• 3:53:01
  Yeah, 'cause that's where we're at.
• 3:53:03
  I know he's still doing Maga, and that's great.
• 3:53:07
  It's it's a good message. But take America.
• 3:53:10
  The problem is, if he actually used that as his slogan, the
• 3:53:13
  media would fucking never let him forget it.
• 3:53:17
  Well, they're all they're already like marching out the
• 3:53:20
  dictator like that. That was the funniest thing.
• 3:53:24
  Such a tyrant that we need to, like falsely in prison, lie
• 3:53:28
  about him, fucking investigate his whole family like he's such
• 3:53:32
  a dictator. We got to do all the dictator
• 3:53:35
  stuff against him. Yeah, and and even and even
• 3:53:40
  Harry. Like and that was the thing that
• 3:53:44
  Harry Sussen what? Or whatever his name Harry
• 3:53:46
  Sisson. And oh oh he's only he's only 20
• 3:53:51
  years old. How can you criticize him?
• 3:53:53
  Sam, fuck off. I was doing this shit when when
• 3:53:58
  I was younger than him and I received criticism.
• 3:54:01
  Listen, he's only he's only 20 years old.
• 3:54:05
  He shouldn't be talking politics because he's retarded.
• 3:54:08
  Because guess what? When you're in 20 year old man,
• 3:54:10
  you're retarded. Well, OK, audience, if you're
• 3:54:14
  joining, yeah, OK, but it's true.
• 3:54:17
  No, it is true. But also if you're going to get
• 3:54:21
  into the sandbox like I did at you know, at like at 14, I admit
• 3:54:27
  maybe I was a little young to get into this when I did, I
• 3:54:30
  admit that. But Even so, if you're going to
• 3:54:34
  end with sandbox at the early age and play with the adults,
• 3:54:38
  you you got to take some some adult licks.
• 3:54:42
  That's just how it is. I mean, I don't, I don't think
• 3:54:47
  that's unfair. If anything it if anything it
• 3:54:50
  toughened me up a bit. So.
• 3:54:55
  But Harry's obviously protected by, you know, by his his, well,
• 3:55:06
  you know, just like Brooke on Dad Defiant.
• 3:55:09
  He's a paid DNC shill shill. So they'll shield him from
• 3:55:15
  criticism. So oh, I wasn't supposed to say
• 3:55:19
  that was I? Oops, oops.
• 3:55:27
  Well, I made a post the other day on Twitter that I'd like I'd
• 3:55:30
  like to read because I feel like it's important and kind of
• 3:55:33
  relevant here. I said there's nothing requiring
• 3:55:38
  me to accept anyone for whatever they do or or identify as there
• 3:55:44
  is nothing banning me from judging people either.
• 3:55:47
  It is perfectly acceptable for me to not associate with anyone
• 3:55:51
  for any or no reason at all. Did you all forget this?
• 3:55:58
  Yeah. This idea that you have to be
• 3:56:01
  nice is what I'm at, what I'm getting at here.
• 3:56:03
  Oh yeah, You don't have to be nice.
• 3:56:06
  I don't have to accept people. And of course a lot of people
• 3:56:10
  immediately think oh he's talking transgender.
• 3:56:12
  I anything. I don't have to accept you for
• 3:56:16
  who you are. I can judge you it honestly like
• 3:56:22
  as a disabled I and I and yes I am going to say as a disabled
• 3:56:26
  person because this has honestly been like my experience hold on
• 3:56:31
  you're disabled I never knew right right.
• 3:56:38
  No. I mean, I I I never, you know,
• 3:56:42
  really bring it up. But honestly like there is
• 3:56:45
  there's a separate. I'm sorry that's the.
• 3:56:49
  I love this. I think you said that with.
• 3:56:52
  Because I can no what what's what's the thing that was like
• 3:56:58
  the the I've been in situations where like I can tell that
• 3:57:01
  people are being nut. There's a difference between
• 3:57:04
  being nice and being air in air quotes nice in balloon quotes.
• 3:57:13
  Nice. And you saw the balloons.
• 3:57:16
  Right. When you did the air quotes you
• 3:57:19
  had balloons. That's perfect.
• 3:57:22
  That's actually Per. I didn't see that because I'm
• 3:57:25
  looking at Twitter. But that's perfect.
• 3:57:28
  That's pretty good. Yeah.
• 3:57:31
  No. Like they're fake nice to you
• 3:57:32
  'cause they're afraid that they might say the wrong thing and
• 3:57:36
  often times it's actually worse. Yeah.
• 3:57:39
  And it and it's and they they undermine my intelligence by by
• 3:57:47
  doing that. So but it's you'd be amazed how
• 3:57:52
  people like, equate any kind of, like physical thing that they
• 3:57:58
  can see directly to IQ as if that's a thing, right.
• 3:58:03
  And so they just, oh, a wheelchair guy, He must be
• 3:58:06
  retarded. Well, well, they do the same
• 3:58:09
  thing with white, with white people, especially white
• 3:58:14
  liberals. Yeah, they fucking do.
• 3:58:17
  I I was like, they're toddlers and shit.
• 3:58:21
  I was actually talking about this with with our buddy
• 3:58:25
  Nashville. I was like, you know, black
• 3:58:29
  people and and cripples actually have a lot uncommon in the sense
• 3:58:33
  that the, the left both talks down to us.
• 3:58:37
  Yeah. They talk to both of you like
• 3:58:39
  you're a toddler. Yeah.
• 3:58:42
  And. And it's especially funny when
• 3:58:44
  you have like an intelligent black friend and they do that
• 3:58:47
  and they just get roasted. Yeah, because that happens in my
• 3:58:53
  circle of friends every now and again.
• 3:58:54
  Some old white cat ladies can be like, yeah.
• 3:58:58
  Oh, it's so great that you're doing great for yourself.
• 3:59:03
  Oh, it's so nice. And then like, bitch, what am I,
• 3:59:06
  five? Fuck off.
• 3:59:11
  The same kind of people, same kind of people.
• 3:59:14
  Don't have a Black Lives Matter sign on their front fucking
• 3:59:17
  porch. Never had a black person in
• 3:59:20
  their house in their life, you know what I mean?
• 3:59:24
  Like yeah. Matter over there.
• 3:59:28
  Yeah, they they they matter over there.
• 3:59:31
  They don't matter so much here or or you know or they don't
• 3:59:35
  look like the prune proper. You know they don't look like
• 3:59:40
  they don't look like what they think a black person should look
• 3:59:42
  like. So you know so they're afraid
• 3:59:48
  that one I get a lot. Like I have some ghetto ass
• 3:59:51
  friends, right? I dress like they're from the
• 3:59:54
  fucking hood now sometimes. That's pretty.
• 3:59:57
  I was talking with Nashi about this the other day.
• 3:59:59
  He showed a.
