Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. Thank
- 0:03Speaker 1: you all for coming out to my show at the
- 0:07Speaker 1: Netflix is a Joke Festival in Los Angeles at the
- 0:11Speaker 1: Wiltern Theater where I interviewed the cast of Selling Sunset
- 0:16Speaker 1: dressed as John Wayne Gacy and it was a great
- 0:20Speaker 1: moment for everyone. It was fun. It was a fun show.
- 0:25Speaker 1: The women from the show didn't speak that much. And
- 0:36Speaker 1: Jason Oppenheim, who owns the brokerage, to his credit, tried
- 0:39Speaker 1: to answer some of the questions. And I like him.
- 0:43Speaker 1: At one point I said, are your clients worried about security?
- 0:47Speaker 1: And he said, yes. He goes, in fact, the other
- 0:52Speaker 1: day I went to go to a house and they
- 0:56Speaker 1: wouldn't even let me in because that's how secure it was.
- 0:59Speaker 1: And I went, They wouldn't let you in? And he goes, no, well,
- 1:03Speaker 1: they let me in. I was like, oh, so you just,
- 1:05Speaker 1: you lied. You just, you made that up. And he laughed.
- 1:07Speaker 1: He goes, yeah. And that's what, that's what a good
- 1:11Speaker 1: real estate agent does. A good real estate agent is
- 1:14Speaker 1: a liar. Sorry. You want them lying for you, but
- 1:20Speaker 1: that's what they do. And I respect that. I respect
- 1:23Speaker 1: the profession always have. Um, and they came on the show.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Now we did a show where it was like a
- 1:30Speaker 1: theatrical kind of Broadway show. If you were on math,
- 1:35Speaker 1: you know, we interviewed a food delivery robot. We had
- 1:39Speaker 1: a choir of people that came out dressed as unhoused
- 1:42Speaker 1: people and sang landslide. We had You know, we had
- 1:48Speaker 1: like a woman come out who pretended to lose her
- 1:50Speaker 1: house in the Palisades fire. We had fun. And we
- 1:55Speaker 1: might do more things like that because they're fun. And
- 1:59Speaker 1: my costume designer in L.A., she's one of the most
- 2:01Speaker 1: talented people. You know, there is a lot of talent here.
- 2:06Speaker 1: Not so much on the screen. But behind the scenes,
- 2:11Speaker 1: there's a lot of talent. There's still really creative people
- 2:14Speaker 1: who love what they do. And this woman is one
- 2:17Speaker 1: of them. And she did this photo shoot. I didn't
- 2:21Speaker 1: even know it was happening. They did these professional photos
- 2:24Speaker 1: of me dressed up in this John Wayne Gacy kind
- 2:27Speaker 1: of drag Joker costume that she made. And it was unbelievable. Unbelievable.
- 2:35Speaker 1: And she brought in all these really high-level gay makeup
- 2:39Speaker 1: artists and photographers. Were they on meth? Who cares? It
- 2:42Speaker 1: doesn't matter. They're working. It's a work drug. And they
- 2:46Speaker 1: were blasting music, and I felt very cool. We did
- 2:48Speaker 1: a whole photo shoot. It was very fun, and they
- 2:51Speaker 1: do very high-level people. I didn't even know it was happening,
- 2:54Speaker 1: but it was exciting and fun. And they're the funnest
- 2:58Speaker 1: people I met were the makeup meth people. They're, like, fun.
- 3:03Speaker 1: And then everyone else, you know, the Netflix festival, you
- 3:06Speaker 1: see a lot of comics you haven't seen in a while,
- 3:08Speaker 1: which is fun, but then you're just inundated with, you know,
- 3:11Speaker 1: the business, the industry. It's gross. It's gross. It's desperate.
- 3:15Speaker 1: It's sad. It's gross. It's grotesque. Truly.
- 3:19Speaker 2: And.
- 3:21Speaker 1: It's a lot of this, it's a lot of, hey, hey, hey,
- 3:27Speaker 1: it's a lot of that. But it was a fun
- 3:30Speaker 1: thing to do. It was a fun thing to do.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Was Netflix thrilled with everything I said on the stage?
- 3:40Speaker 1: We don't know, we don't know. I'm sure everyone takes it,
- 3:48Speaker 1: everyone takes criticism in stride. Even Netflix. I've had a
- 3:54Speaker 1: relationship with Netflix. But Netflix, like everyone, like myself, has
- 3:59Speaker 1: good and bad in them, right? It's complex. It's not
- 4:05Speaker 1: just amazing and great and that's it. We must be
- 4:10Speaker 1: introspective and look inside. So I imagine that was the
- 4:14Speaker 1: message delivered. I delivered it in a fun kind of
- 4:18Speaker 1: theatrical way. I don't think there's any problem there. But
- 4:22Speaker 1: it was a fun thing. We'll do more things like that,
- 4:25Speaker 1: I think, because it was fun to do something strange
- 4:30Speaker 1: and weird. And it had a lot of moving parts
- 4:35Speaker 1: and different components. And, you know, the Selling Sunset cast,
- 4:41Speaker 1: I don't think they knew what was going on. And
- 4:44Speaker 1: one of them I asked, you grew up in the UK?
- 4:46Speaker 1: And she said, yes, I did. I grew up in Paris.
- 4:49Speaker 1: They don't know. I don't know what. they really know
- 4:51Speaker 1: what's happening. Brie, I liked a lot. And she's one
- 4:54Speaker 1: of the OGs and she's still on the show. And
- 4:56Speaker 1: she laughed at every joke and she's Nick Cannon's ex
- 4:58Speaker 1: or current. I don't know, whatever. It's not my business,
- 5:00Speaker 1: but she was great. And, but there's a lot of
- 5:03Speaker 1: the women there. You would try to just, you know,
- 5:05Speaker 1: they wouldn't really answer a lot of the questions. I
- 5:07Speaker 1: asked one woman, I said, do you know any poor people?
- 5:09Speaker 1: And she said, no. And I said, that's okay. That's okay.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Because everyone judges her for that in society that she
- 5:18Speaker 1: doesn't know any poor people. But she probably doesn't like them.
- 5:23Speaker 1: And that's her choice. It's hard to meet poor people
- 5:27Speaker 1: if you're rich. And no one talks about that, by
- 5:30Speaker 1: the way. It's true. It's hard to meet poor people
- 5:35Speaker 1: if you're rich. You got to go out of your
- 5:37Speaker 1: way to meet a really poor person if you're rich. Like,
- 5:41Speaker 1: I mean, if you're rich, rich. Not if you, like,
- 5:44Speaker 1: made money in comedy after being a bum forever like
- 5:48Speaker 1: I did. Then a lot of people you know don't
- 5:51Speaker 1: have any money. It doesn't matter. But if you're someone that,
- 5:54Speaker 1: you know, works in real estate and you're hot and
- 5:57Speaker 1: you're whatever, you can't just meet a poor person. That's
- 6:01Speaker 1: not the way it works. And then if you meet
- 6:04Speaker 1: a poor person, it's weird to bring the poor person
- 6:07Speaker 1: around as a rich, hot real estate agent. who sells
- 6:12Speaker 1: houses or whatever. I don't know if they actually sell
- 6:14Speaker 1: houses either. But it doesn't matter. Does anything matter? I
- 6:20Speaker 1: think I said to them, I'm like, you guys don't
- 6:22Speaker 1: really sell houses. I mean, they didn't even defend. They
- 6:25Speaker 1: didn't even go, no, we sell houses. I don't think
- 6:30Speaker 1: it matters. I don't think it matters if the audience
- 6:33Speaker 1: knows they don't sell the houses. I don't think people
- 6:37Speaker 1: watch the show because they sell houses. And the audience
- 6:42Speaker 1: was so vicious to these people, when they would talk,
- 6:44Speaker 1: the audience would go, shut the fuck up! People from
- 6:48Speaker 1: the mezzanine, the balcony, would scream at them, shut the
- 6:52Speaker 1: fuck up! Because people now, you know, that show got
- 6:59Speaker 1: debuted in 2019, it was just pre-pandemic. That show was
- 7:03Speaker 1: from a time when people believed that they could own
- 7:06Speaker 1: a house. They never believed that they could own some
- 7:10Speaker 1: crazy modern mansion in the Hollywood Hills, but they said,
- 7:13Speaker 1: I could get a little house, a cabin somewhere. I'm
- 7:16Speaker 1: in the game. And when you're in the game, you can,
- 7:20Speaker 1: you know, there's the escapism of watching a real estate
- 7:23Speaker 1: show where these women pretend to sell these high-end properties
- 7:27Speaker 1: because you can enjoy it. It's silly and there's drama.
- 7:31Speaker 1: They fight with each other, whatever. But you go... well,
- 7:36Speaker 1: I own a house and I'm watching other people sell
- 7:38Speaker 1: nicer houses, but I'm, or I could dream of owning
- 7:42Speaker 1: a house. It's realistic that I own a house. But
- 7:44Speaker 1: now that owning a house has become incredibly tough, I
- 7:51Speaker 1: think that era of entertainment, that era of voyeurism is
- 7:57Speaker 1: actually going to decline. I don't think people are going
- 8:02Speaker 1: to have an appetite anymore to watch shows where like attractive.
- 8:06Speaker 1: And by the way, I could be wrong. It's my prediction.
- 8:09Speaker 1: I don't think people are going to have an appetite
- 8:11Speaker 1: to watch shows where hot women walk around mansions and
- 8:17Speaker 1: pretend to sell them. I think eventually people are going
- 8:21Speaker 1: to go, we've had enough of this shit. This is
- 8:25Speaker 1: a relic from another era of, We can't even imagine
- 8:34Speaker 1: owning something and we're pissed about it and rightfully so.
- 8:38Speaker 1: And we're not gonna watch these bitches walk around in
- 8:43Speaker 1: the six inch heels on a marble floor. It takes
- 8:47Speaker 1: on a new meaning when people are fucked. But I
- 8:53Speaker 1: do appreciate them coming on and they were lovely people backstage.
- 8:58Speaker 1: They were very nice. They didn't answer the questions. That's fine.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Doesn't matter. They tried. At one point I said, just
- 9:05Speaker 1: name an area of Los Angeles that you like. Can
- 9:08Speaker 1: you do that? Just name, you don't even have to
- 9:11Speaker 1: like it. Just name an area of Los Angeles and
- 9:14Speaker 1: let's discuss that. And we'll release clips of this, but
- 9:18Speaker 1: it was difficult for them. And, and, but it was
- 9:22Speaker 1: still nice that they came. And, You know, a lot
- 9:26Speaker 1: of things are changing. I read this article in the
- 9:28Speaker 1: New York Times, you can grab this, that Meta, which
- 9:30Speaker 1: is this mega company owned by Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook, Instagram,
- 9:35Speaker 1: you know, they dumped $ 80 billion, I think, into this
- 9:38Speaker 1: Metaverse idea. I think it was billion. That sounds high.
- 9:44Speaker 1: It might have been million, but it's on Drudge, it's
- 9:47Speaker 1: in the Times. It might have been $ 80 billion. There
- 9:51Speaker 1: was a time during the NFT craze where people would
- 9:57Speaker 1: come up to me and say, you have to be
- 9:59Speaker 1: the first comedian in the metaverse. And I said, what
- 10:02Speaker 1: do you mean by that? They said, well, pretty soon
- 10:07Speaker 1: we're just going to live in a virtual world completely.
- 10:11Speaker 1: And instead of performing for 300 people or 3,000 people
- 10:15Speaker 1: or whatever, you're going to perform for 50,000 people or 100,000 people.
- 10:21Speaker 1: or a million people in the metaverse, because the metaverse
- 10:27Speaker 1: is going to be the digital world we all inhabit.
- 10:29Speaker 1: You'll have these glasses, and you're not gonna go meet
- 10:33Speaker 1: your friends at a restaurant, you're gonna meet them in
- 10:35Speaker 1: the metaverse. And people are gonna watch comedy in this
- 10:39Speaker 1: digital world. And now, of course, it sucked. Everything we
- 10:45Speaker 1: saw that came out of the metaverse, you'd have an avatar.
- 10:50Speaker 1: And you'd be this avatar. Get something up about the
- 10:54Speaker 1: metaverse where we can kind of look at it. Like
- 10:57Speaker 1: the concept, the proof of concept for it. It was like,
- 11:01Speaker 1: you know, it was this strange thing where you'd have
- 11:04Speaker 1: an avatar and you'd live in this completely digitized digital world.
- 11:12Speaker 1: And people really believed that that was like going to happen.
- 11:15Speaker 1: It was like on the cusp of happening. But again,
- 11:17Speaker 1: this was the height of the NFT craze, the mania.
- 11:21Speaker 1: This is when people in Miami are showing you their
- 11:23Speaker 1: phone and going, look, I just paid $ 10, 000 for this.
- 11:25Speaker 1: It was a squiggly line. I just paid $ 10, 000 for
- 11:30Speaker 1: this squiggly line. I knew people who flipped NFTs, meaning
- 11:35Speaker 1: they bought them and then sold them for more money
- 11:37Speaker 1: and they made like $ 2 million. And these were inherently
- 11:42Speaker 1: worthless pieces of shit. Many of them, you know, there's
- 11:47Speaker 1: non-fungible tokens on the blockchain and da-da-da-da-da. It's a way
- 11:52Speaker 1: to show ownership. I own this. It's mine. I can
- 11:55Speaker 1: prove that I own it. And a lot of these
- 11:57Speaker 1: things were, some of them were artistic, some of them
- 12:00Speaker 1: were cool, a lot of them weren't. So the metaverse
- 12:04Speaker 1: was an outgrowth of this idea is that well, you know,
- 12:10Speaker 1: we're all eventually just going to inhabit this reality. And
- 12:13Speaker 1: we're going to inhabit this reality because there's a pandemic
- 12:17Speaker 1: and the world is gross and it's dangerous and there's
- 12:22Speaker 1: riots and there's crime, but not in the metaverse. In
- 12:24Speaker 1: the metaverse, it's all good. So let's watch a little
- 12:28Speaker 1: bit of this thing here. But again, the metaverse was doomed.
- 12:33Speaker 1: And maybe in 10 years or sooner, we're all living
- 12:35Speaker 1: in the metaverse. But it never caught on. It just
- 12:38Speaker 1: never happened. But here's a little something on that.
- 12:43Speaker 2: Imagine you put on your glasses or headset and you're
- 12:47Speaker 2: instantly in your home space. It has parts of your
- 12:50Speaker 2: physical home recreated virtually. It has things that are only
- 12:53Speaker 2: possible virtually. And it has an incredibly inspiring.
- 12:56Speaker 1: By the way, just stop it for a minute. This freak...
- 13:02Speaker 1: This freak is so, he disturbs me on such a
- 13:07Speaker 1: guttural level and he makes my skin crawl. And no offense,
- 13:13Speaker 1: you know me, I don't try to be offensive on
- 13:15Speaker 1: the show. There's something about him. Bezos, at least I
- 13:19Speaker 1: kind of get, because he's a real psychopath. He's on
- 13:23Speaker 1: a big yacht. Him and his wife bought the Met Gala,
- 13:26Speaker 1: which a bunch of my comedian friends that tweet all
- 13:29Speaker 1: day about how White men suck, seem to throw those
- 13:32Speaker 1: morals away when it's time to go to the Met
- 13:34Speaker 1: Gala that's now owned by a true lunatic, Jeff Bezos,
- 13:38Speaker 1: who's on a super yacht. He's a genuine Bond supervillain.
- 13:44Speaker 1: But there's something about Bezos, I kind of, I don't
- 13:48Speaker 1: know if I would say I like it, but there's
- 13:50Speaker 1: something honest about Bezos. He's like, I'm on a super yacht.
- 13:54Speaker 1: I got this, my wife, we have a big wedding
- 13:56Speaker 1: in Italy. We invite every famous person we know. We are...
- 14:01Speaker 1: You know, Bezos seems like a guy... There's maybe some
- 14:03Speaker 1: insecurity there. Whatever it is, he desperately wants to prove
- 14:07Speaker 1: to you that he's the coolest person that's ever lived. And,
- 14:13Speaker 1: you know, is that... Is that disgusting? Sure. But you
- 14:18Speaker 1: know what it is. And I think now, truly in life,
- 14:24Speaker 1: it's not about whether you agree or disagree with someone.
- 14:27Speaker 1: I was thinking about this the other day. And it's
- 14:28Speaker 1: not about whether you... Think they're good or bad. Do
- 14:32Speaker 1: you know what they are? I think this is becoming
- 14:36Speaker 1: the real question and the real concern and the real
- 14:41Speaker 1: way to evaluate people. Forget good or bad. Forget the morality.
- 14:47Speaker 1: Forget just for a minute. And just do you know
- 14:50Speaker 1: what they are? Do you get where they're coming from?
- 14:52Speaker 1: Are they reliably consistent? Whatever. And a guy like Jeff Bezos,
- 14:56Speaker 1: I think you kind of understand that. This guy... feels
- 15:02Speaker 1: like someone who's really trying to be a human being
- 15:07Speaker 1: he's doing his best he's occasionally succeeding but it just
- 15:13Speaker 1: something is deeply unsettling but let's continue here mark zuckerberg
- 15:17Speaker 1: friend of the.
- 15:17Speaker 2: Show incredibly inspiring view of whatever you find.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Most beautiful hey are you coming yeah just got.
- 15:26Speaker 2: To find something to wear.
- 15:33Speaker 1: All right, perfect. Oh, hey, Mark. Hey, what's going on?
- 15:41Speaker 1: What's up, Mark?
- 15:42Speaker 2: Whoa, we're floating in space? Who made this place? It's awesome.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Okay, so, all right, kill this. Just to give you
- 15:49Speaker 1: a refresher course of what the metaverse was. Now, find
- 15:51Speaker 1: this article here where it is, his New York Times
- 15:55Speaker 1: article about Facebook dying. Meta dying, which owns Facebook. It's
- 16:02Speaker 1: on Drudge. And, you know, I read this article today,
- 16:06Speaker 1: and they make the point that nothing on the internet
- 16:08Speaker 1: dies overnight, even Yahoo and AOL and things like that.
- 16:12Speaker 1: They still function. They still have people that use them.
- 16:16Speaker 1: You know, Facebook... I don't know anyone on Facebook. We
- 16:19Speaker 1: can sell a lot of tickets on Facebook. We post
- 16:21Speaker 1: probably content from this show on Facebook. Facebook's now settling
- 16:26Speaker 1: lawsuits with people... because it's now proven that Meta's algorithm has,
- 16:32Speaker 1: you know, driven people, I think, to kill themselves and stuff.
- 16:39Speaker 1: I think that's what's going on. Like, that the algorithm
- 16:42Speaker 1: has focused on negativity and it has incentivized and encouraged
- 16:53Speaker 1: people the type of behavior that has led people to
- 16:58Speaker 1: have serious psychological conditions. They're settling somewhat. We all know
- 17:04Speaker 1: someone who's gone insane on social media. We all know that.
- 17:07Speaker 1: You all have an aunt. We've all existed in this
- 17:10Speaker 1: world long enough to know someone who has genuinely become
- 17:15Speaker 1: a schizophrenic on social media. We know that person. We
- 17:21Speaker 1: know someone who at one time was fun and who
- 17:26Speaker 1: is now a schizophrenic. And that's sad. And I don't
- 17:30Speaker 1: know what can be done about it, but we know
- 17:33Speaker 1: that that exists. So what I was talking about before...
- 17:39Speaker 1: In March, the company, Meta, alongside YouTube, lost a bellwether
- 17:43Speaker 1: lawsuit alleging that its addictive design choices triggered anxiety, depression,
- 17:49Speaker 1: and body image issues in a teenager. Waiting in the
- 17:53Speaker 1: wings are over 100,000 similar cases seeking claims in the
- 17:57Speaker 1: tens of billions of dollars. Also, you know, people have
- 18:06Speaker 1: talked about foreign influence campaigns using Meta, misinformation campaigns using
- 18:13Speaker 1: these sites or whatever. So this article in the Times
- 18:17Speaker 1: is basically saying that although Meta is still doing very
- 18:20Speaker 1: well in the sense that they've made a lot of money,
- 18:22Speaker 1: there's a few key markers that show that the company
- 18:27Speaker 1: itself is beginning to decline. And that could be irreversible.
- 18:34Speaker 1: And that that era of the internet... might be ending,
- 18:38Speaker 1: and it will take a while. And one wonders what
- 18:41Speaker 1: comes next, but there's a quote here, there's a grim
- 18:45Speaker 1: satisfaction in watching this organization hoist with its own petard.
- 18:49Speaker 1: This is the company that profited from trafficking and lies,
- 18:52Speaker 1: attunes its algorithms to boost hatred and division that stole
- 18:56Speaker 1: our data and used it against us that created the
- 18:58Speaker 1: culture of toxic memes, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, whatever.
- 19:01Speaker 1: So this is in the New York Times, And what
- 19:05Speaker 1: they're saying here is they go, well, if Facebook dies,
- 19:08Speaker 1: maybe things get better. And the New York Times is like,
- 19:12Speaker 1: it could be a heartening turn in our national conversation.
- 19:17Speaker 1: And they said TikTok traffics more in inspirational content. I
- 19:21Speaker 1: don't know what algorithm on TikTok they're on, by the way.
- 19:24Speaker 1: They go, TikTok traffics in more inspirational content? I don't
- 19:28Speaker 1: know where they're at. They go, prom videos are currently trending. Uh, okay. Um,
- 19:37Speaker 1: but what's interesting about this to me, like kind of
- 19:41Speaker 1: reading this article is imagining what comes next because there, there,
- 19:50Speaker 1: is there was that and it seems to be like
- 19:55Speaker 1: are young people fighting about politics on the internet it
- 20:00Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be that they are in the way
- 20:04Speaker 1: that older people are That feels to me like something that,
- 20:09Speaker 1: as a younger friend of mine who helped out with
- 20:11Speaker 1: the show recently said, old heads do. It doesn't feel
- 20:16Speaker 1: like that's a, like, the people I know who have
- 20:21Speaker 1: the most active social media presence are older. And that
- 20:29Speaker 1: seems odd. It seems like it should be the other
- 20:31Speaker 1: way around. That younger people should be the ones on
- 20:35Speaker 1: social media using it for whatever reasons to make change
- 20:39Speaker 1: or whatever. But it seems to be like older people
- 20:41Speaker 1: that are bored and all they care about is this
- 20:46Speaker 1: and this is now where they live. Like that is
- 20:51Speaker 1: their metaverse. Like he has created that. They don't need
- 20:54Speaker 1: the goggles. They're already there. They're already there, Mark. You
- 20:59Speaker 1: did it. You kind of did it. My aunt's already there.
- 21:03Speaker 1: She's locked in. I don't know that she needs to
- 21:06Speaker 1: be in a digital world. You've already created this space
- 21:11Speaker 1: where people are able to basically just fight about things
- 21:17Speaker 1: that don't really affect them for the rest of their
- 21:20Speaker 1: lives until their bodies are riddled with cancer and they die.
- 21:24Speaker 1: That's how old people live now. Old people, however you
- 21:30Speaker 1: want to talk about our country, a lot of people
- 21:34Speaker 1: that aren't from America are like, they visit here and
- 21:37Speaker 1: they go, it's an abomination what you do to your
- 21:40Speaker 1: old people. You stick them in homes. You kicked them
- 21:42Speaker 1: out of the house. They would never do that in Japan.
- 21:45Speaker 1: They go, we all live together. We respect our elders.
- 21:48Speaker 1: They die in their beds. We ship them to nursing homes.
- 21:53Speaker 1: There's fight clubs. People pee on them or whatnot. It's bad.
- 21:58Speaker 1: But whatever you think about that, old people now, the
- 22:04Speaker 1: last years of their life, meaning where they still have
- 22:07Speaker 1: before they're completely bedridden and they're going out. Mark Zuckerberg
- 22:13Speaker 1: has stolen the last 10 years of your mother's life
- 22:19Speaker 1: before she got to mention Alzheimer's. Mark Zuckerberg has stolen that.
- 22:26Speaker 1: The last 10 years of grandma's life, where's grandma? She's
- 22:32Speaker 1: on Facebook. She's drunk and she's fighting with someone she's
- 22:38Speaker 1: never met. And that's how people get old now. They
- 22:43Speaker 1: get old on the internet and they spend their golden years,
- 22:49Speaker 1: the last years on this planet where they still have
- 22:52Speaker 1: moving legs and they can still walk. They spend it
- 22:56Speaker 1: shut in their home on Facebook talking about Iran. That's
- 23:05Speaker 1: what Mark Zuckerberg's created. He's driven your parents insane, and
- 23:13Speaker 1: he's given them a place where they're incentivized to actually
- 23:18Speaker 1: get crazier. And that's the way people get old now.
- 23:24Speaker 1: That's part of life. I've always talked about Mint Mobile,

- 25:45Speaker 1: I used to go on it. I'd rate statuses, get likes.
- 25:48Speaker 1: I'd try to be funny about shit. I haven't been
- 25:52Speaker 1: on it in years. Can you get up the average
- 25:55Speaker 1: age of a Facebook user? It might be younger than
- 25:59Speaker 1: I think. I don't know. And I don't know how
- 26:01Speaker 1: they calculate these averages either. That's not true. This is
- 26:08Speaker 1: such a lie. They go, as of early 2026, the
- 26:11Speaker 1: largest demographics of Facebook users globally is 25 to 34
- 26:14Speaker 1: years old. Growing engagement for users 45 to 65. Do
- 26:22Speaker 1: you go on Facebook? No. Do you know anyone really
- 26:26Speaker 1: engaged on Facebook? My parents. That's right. No, it's true.
- 26:30Speaker 1: I don't know where they're getting to, but maybe they're
- 26:32Speaker 1: talking about people in India who just got it. I
- 26:34Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, globally. Yeah, whatever.
- 26:35Speaker 3: Whatever.
- 26:37Speaker 1: Old people are on Facebook the last years of their life.
- 26:42Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg has stolen and he's radicalizing them and they
- 26:48Speaker 1: can't do anything about it. Their bodies are failing. Their
- 26:51Speaker 1: minds are failing. They're trapped in this prison, this hell.
- 26:55Speaker 1: They should be seeing their grandchildren. They should be drinking wine.
- 26:59Speaker 1: They should be on a boat. But what they're really
- 27:03Speaker 1: doing is spending their life, the last bits of it,
- 27:07Speaker 1: the last things that really matter, they're spending it in
- 27:11Speaker 1: this hell created by this humanoid freak. That's how their
- 27:18Speaker 1: truth has been. So this company, Meta, starting to decline.
- 27:22Speaker 1: I don't shed a tear for this. I don't shed
- 27:25Speaker 1: a tear for this. Now, I'm on Instagram. I like Instagram.
- 27:29Speaker 1: I'm on social media. It's part of my job. I
- 27:31Speaker 1: get it. I'm not, you know, one of these people
- 27:34Speaker 1: who claims moral superiority to any of this, but I
- 27:36Speaker 1: just look around and notice things. And I look at
- 27:38Speaker 1: the people on Facebook. I go, these people are unwell.
- 27:41Speaker 1: They're older, they don't know what AI is. They don't
- 27:44Speaker 1: know if something's real or fake. They don't know what
- 27:47Speaker 1: they're arguing about. There's clearly an AI video of a
- 27:50Speaker 1: crocodile eating someone and they're like, that's why you never,
- 27:54Speaker 1: you gotta respect animals, the power of an animal. And
- 27:58Speaker 1: it's just, they don't know their lives have been stolen
- 28:01Speaker 1: from them. It's sad, it's actually sad. They don't understand
- 28:04Speaker 1: what happened. They don't get it. Nothing like this has
- 28:08Speaker 1: ever happened before. By the way, they didn't watch their
- 28:10Speaker 1: parents do this. This has never happened before where at
- 28:14Speaker 1: the end of your life, there was a technology invented
- 28:18Speaker 1: that made you insane. This has never happened. Large swaths
- 28:21Speaker 1: of the public have gone, functionally, they're insane. They're lost,
- 28:25Speaker 1: they're gone. On every political spectrum all over the place,
- 28:29Speaker 1: doesn't matter. But this has never really happened before where
- 28:33Speaker 1: a playground for your worst ideas and impulses was given
- 28:39Speaker 1: to you at the end of your life. when the
- 28:42Speaker 1: sharpness of your mind is starting to really wear thin
- 28:46Speaker 1: and you don't know what's going on. And they give
- 28:49Speaker 1: you this playground and go fuck around, have fun, see
- 28:53Speaker 1: what happens, learn things. You shouldn't learn things. The learning
- 28:58Speaker 1: should stop at a certain age. Now they're all learning
- 29:03Speaker 1: about aliens on Facebook? I heard the government was going
- 29:07Speaker 1: to come out and tell everybody there was no God.
- 29:09Speaker 1: We were created by aliens. How are they going to
- 29:11Speaker 1: take that? You know what I mean? That's what I
- 29:14Speaker 1: heard was going to happen. I heard from multiple people.
- 29:17Speaker 1: I called a couple of people. They go, yeah, I
- 29:19Speaker 1: think the government is going to come out and tell
- 29:20Speaker 1: everyone there's no God. We were created by aliens. All
- 29:23Speaker 1: the world religions are fake. And deal with that. Do
- 29:25Speaker 1: with that what you will. Who knows? Now, that didn't happen.
- 29:29Speaker 1: I think the government's kind of backed off on that.
- 29:31Speaker 1: They're like, well, make your own conclusion. Choose your own adventure.
- 29:36Speaker 1: But supposedly that's what they were going to tell everybody. Like,
- 29:39Speaker 1: by the way. it's all fake. There's no God. You
- 29:43Speaker 1: were created by aliens. I really believe that's what they
- 29:46Speaker 1: were going to say. And they were just going to
- 29:48Speaker 1: tell everyone to deal with it. Deal with it And
- 29:53Speaker 1: they called a bunch of pastors and they were like, hey,
- 29:56Speaker 1: by the way, you're going to have to, your congregation's
- 29:58Speaker 1: going to get upset because during the morning press briefing,
- 30:02Speaker 1: we're going to announce that there's no God and we're
- 30:03Speaker 1: all a creation of aliens. I mean, it's like, I mean...
- 30:10Speaker 1: What are we doing to these people at the end
- 30:12Speaker 1: of their lives? Could you think of a worse way
- 30:15Speaker 1: to get old than the way you get old now?
- 30:18Speaker 1: Is there a worse generation? Is there a worse time? Now, yes,
- 30:21Speaker 1: the boomers have all the fucking money. They own these
- 30:23Speaker 1: big houses. That's all nice. But they don't have minds anymore.
- 30:27Speaker 1: Their minds have disintegrated. They've melted in their heads. I mean,
- 30:32Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. And now at the end of their life,
- 30:35Speaker 1: while they're frothing in a Facebook rage, wandering around their house,
- 30:40Speaker 1: we tell them, by the way, we don't think there's
- 30:42Speaker 1: a God or anything. We were created by aliens. That's
- 30:45Speaker 1: the last thing they hear before they collapse on their
- 30:48Speaker 1: keyboard as they're responding to their sister that they barely
- 30:52Speaker 1: speak to. Well, actually, the trans issue is more of
- 30:55Speaker 1: an issue than you.
- 30:56Speaker 4: Think it is.
- 30:58Speaker 1: It's insane. We are destroyed. Now, you might think it's
- 31:02Speaker 1: undignified to go to a nursing home and die there.
- 31:08Speaker 1: And it is. But my mother was in one of
- 31:10Speaker 1: them and died in one of them. Whatever. This is worse.
- 31:13Speaker 1: What we're doing to them now is worse. They're all
- 31:16Speaker 1: in big mansions on Facebook and they're insane. Their kids
- 31:22Speaker 1: hate them? This is worse. Yes, nobody wants to go
- 31:26Speaker 1: to fucking Shady Acres or whatever the name of that
- 31:28Speaker 1: fucking thing. I think maybe that was from The Sopranos.
- 31:32Speaker 1: Nobody wants that. Everybody goes, I don't want to go
- 31:34Speaker 1: into a home. I'm completely fine. I want to live
- 31:37Speaker 1: on my own. And that was the big discussion. The
- 31:41Speaker 1: big discussion was like, well, where do you put old people?
- 31:43Speaker 1: You put them in these homes? And everybody was like,
- 31:46Speaker 1: nobody wanted to go in those homes. And Louie's got
- 31:48Speaker 1: a great new bit on his special about this, about
- 31:50Speaker 1: putting his dad in a place. But the way people
- 31:55Speaker 1: are getting old now where they're just on the internet,
- 31:58Speaker 1: they're just on the internet at whatever age trying to
- 32:03Speaker 1: figure it out and being taken advantage of and bamboozled
- 32:09Speaker 1: and it's coming from all sides and all directions and
- 32:13Speaker 1: they're becoming truly... Like, psychotic? We're inducing psychosis. That's what
- 32:22Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg's done. He's inducing psychosis into large swaths of
- 32:29Speaker 1: the population, but very noticeably in older people that have
- 32:36Speaker 1: now all gone insane. And I actually think, by the way, like,
- 32:41Speaker 1: so there's a new study That shows more than two
- 32:44Speaker 1: thirds of children under the age of two use screens,
- 32:47Speaker 1: some for eight hours a day. So many one year
- 32:49Speaker 1: olds are now on a screen for eight hours a day.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Here's why that's good. Are you ready? Here's why it's good.
- 32:57Speaker 1: If we're gonna live like this, we gotta start them young.
- 33:01Speaker 1: They gotta be, listen. The people I know who got
- 33:06Speaker 1: introduced to Facebook later in their lives no longer speak
- 33:09Speaker 1: to their children. They no longer speak to their families.
- 33:14Speaker 1: They've had Facebook for 10 years. Their children won't bring
- 33:20Speaker 1: the grandkids to the house anymore. That's what happens when
- 33:25Speaker 1: you introduce technology late in life. I'm for, if we're
- 33:31Speaker 1: going to live like this, and it seems like we are,
- 33:34Speaker 1: I'm not commenting on on if it's a good thing.
- 33:38Speaker 1: I don't think it is, but it doesn't seem like
- 33:39Speaker 1: anybody has any investment in changing it. But more than
- 33:44Speaker 1: two-thirds of children under two use screens, some for up
- 33:47Speaker 1: to eight hours a day. One-year-old, and by the way,
- 33:51Speaker 1: and I'm going to say it again, and it's not
- 33:53Speaker 1: a joke, they're watching this show in very big numbers.
- 33:57Speaker 1: Two two-year-olds... Under five toddlers are watching this show in
- 34:06Speaker 1: big numbers now. It is a huge demographic. Almost a
- 34:09Speaker 1: third of newborns watch screens for more than three hours
- 34:12Speaker 1: a day, while nearly 20% of infants aged four to
- 34:16Speaker 1: 11 months watch screens for over an hour a day.
- 34:19Speaker 1: So your 11-month-old is going to get an hour just
- 34:23Speaker 1: to get them going. And by the way, I'm for
- 34:27Speaker 1: this because we need, they need, if we're gonna have this,
- 34:32Speaker 1: they need to understand it. By the time they're four,
- 34:35Speaker 1: they need to go, that's AI. Look at the watermark,
- 34:38Speaker 1: it's AI. Scientists say the basis of future health and
- 34:42Speaker 1: brain development is laid down in the first time from
- 34:45Speaker 1: pregnancy to the age of two. So scientists are now
- 34:49Speaker 1: saying that it might not be good that they're doing this. Yeah,
- 34:56Speaker 1: higher screen use in babies supposedly links to poorer development. Well,
- 35:00Speaker 1: there's not jobs for them when they grow up, so
- 35:02Speaker 1: who cares? They only need to be literate online. Listen
- 35:07Speaker 1: to me now. There are no jobs for your children.
- 35:10Speaker 1: They only need to be literate online. They only need
- 35:13Speaker 1: to understand the way the internet works. So I don't
- 35:16Speaker 1: have a problem with a one-year-old spending five to eight
- 35:19Speaker 1: hours a day on his screen. These include increased risk
- 35:23Speaker 1: of obesity and short-sightedness, sleep problems, behavioral difficulties, language delay. Folks,
- 35:30Speaker 1: they're going to have it anyway. They're going to have
- 35:34Speaker 1: it all anyway. Most likely, your children are going to
- 35:38Speaker 1: be obese, short-sighted, and have language delay. It's just what
- 35:43Speaker 1: it is. We're going to get Ozempic form when they're kids.
- 35:47Speaker 1: GLP-1s for kids are coming, and I'm for it. They're
- 35:51Speaker 1: coming for the fatties for the kids. We're going to
- 35:54Speaker 1: have them all. Your kids are on peptides, they're on GLP-1s,
- 35:57Speaker 1: and they're on the screen. And there's nothing you can
- 35:59Speaker 1: do about it. I'm sorry. It's what it is. Don't
- 36:03Speaker 1: shoot the messenger here. I'm telling you, yes, they're going
- 36:06Speaker 1: to be fat because they're on the screens. Hit them
- 36:08Speaker 1: with the needle. Oh, my kid's fat because he's on
- 36:11Speaker 1: the screen. Well, it's necessary for him to be on
- 36:13Speaker 1: the screen because he needs to be literate and he
- 36:16Speaker 1: needs to understand the way the internet works. He needs
- 36:18Speaker 1: to understand different cultures that arise on the internet. He's
- 36:21Speaker 1: got to choose. She's got to choose. They have to
- 36:24Speaker 1: choose what culture they want to take part in on
- 36:27Speaker 1: the internet. So they're going to be obese, probably. You
- 36:31Speaker 1: hit them with the GLP-1. The GLP-1 will slim them down.
- 36:35Speaker 1: The GLP-1 will hold the food in your infant's stomach
- 36:39Speaker 1: longer so that your infant is less hungry because soon
- 36:44Speaker 1: they will approve GLP-1s for toddlers. So usually here's the
- 36:47Speaker 1: way it works. Your two-year-old eats a chicken nugget and
- 36:51Speaker 1: shits it out and wants another chicken nugget. But the
- 36:54Speaker 1: GLP-1 will hold the nugget in your two-year-old's stomach longer,
- 36:59Speaker 1: and it won't shit. So now we have two things
- 37:03Speaker 1: happening that are good. Shitting no longer is a thing
- 37:06Speaker 1: with babies. They're not going to be shitting all the
- 37:09Speaker 1: time because they're on GLP-1s. They're going to be very constipated.
- 37:13Speaker 1: The food is held in their stomach longer so they're
- 37:15Speaker 1: less hungry. Problem number one, shitting babies, solved. Problem number two,
- 37:20Speaker 1: obese children, solved. This and they're going to be sitting
- 37:24Speaker 1: there and they're going to be on a screen. Listen,
- 37:28Speaker 1: I'm pro family. I'm pro children. But here's what's going
- 37:32Speaker 1: to happen. You're going to have a fat child and
- 37:34Speaker 1: it's going to sit in a chair like this. It's
- 37:36Speaker 1: going to be on a little cushion and you're going
- 37:38Speaker 1: to put a screen in front of it. And then
- 37:41Speaker 1: you are going to shoot it up with a needle
- 37:43Speaker 1: of GLP-1. Parents said they're offering screens to their babies
- 37:49Speaker 1: and toddlers to help manage the stress of daily life
- 37:52Speaker 1: and coping with exhaustion. They mean their stress, right? Not
- 37:54Speaker 1: the baby's stress. Let me read. Let me read that again.
- 37:58Speaker 1: Parents said they're offering screens to their babies and toddlers
- 38:01Speaker 1: to help manage the stress of daily life. Well, here's
- 38:04Speaker 1: the thing. I'm pro family. I'm pro child. I'm pro civilization.
- 38:09Speaker 1: I believe the happiest people truly. are the ones that,
- 38:15Speaker 1: you know, the happiest people I've ever met are the
- 38:16Speaker 1: ones with children. That doesn't mean that there are, I'm
- 38:18Speaker 1: happy I don't have children. So I'm not saying everyone's, whatever.
- 38:21Speaker 1: I'm not telling you how to live. That's not the deal.
- 38:24Speaker 1: But I'm saying I believe people should have children. I
- 38:26Speaker 1: think it's good. You know, most people are not going
- 38:28Speaker 1: to get what they want out of their career. Truly.
- 38:30Speaker 1: Some of them will. Most don't. And even the ones
- 38:34Speaker 1: that do, there's a certain emptiness to that. Whatever. So
- 38:37Speaker 1: I am pro this. But here's the other thing. It's hard.
- 38:42Speaker 1: It's hard. It's hard to be a parent. It's hard
- 38:44Speaker 1: to be a good parent. So I think what people
- 38:48Speaker 1: are doing now is they're giving their children the screens
- 38:52Speaker 1: because they don't have the energy, the time. One parent
- 39:01Speaker 1: described their baby screen time as, quote, a survival skill
- 39:04Speaker 1: in my house. A government spokesman told Sky News, parents
- 39:10Speaker 1: told us they want clear, practical, and nonjudgmental advice on
- 39:14Speaker 1: screen use for under fives. And we work hand in
- 39:17Speaker 1: hand with them. Because the parents don't want to be
- 39:19Speaker 1: judged for it. And I get it. They go, I
- 39:22Speaker 1: got my kids on a screen. I give my kid
- 39:25Speaker 1: an iPad. And I say, leave me alone. alone for
- 39:30Speaker 1: a little while and they don't want to be judged
- 39:34Speaker 1: for that and I understand parents don't want to be
- 39:37Speaker 1: judged for giving their one year old an iPad for
- 39:41Speaker 1: eight hours okay they don't want to be judged for
- 39:44Speaker 1: this and I think we should stop judging them for
- 39:46Speaker 1: it because here's the deal We're heading into this digital world.
- 39:51Speaker 1: By the time those kids grow up, we probably will
- 39:53Speaker 1: be in a fucking metaverse.
- 39:55Speaker 3: So....
- 39:58Speaker 1: You can fight all these. People fight this. They fight that.
- 40:01Speaker 1: They're mad that everybody's on drugs and on the different pharmaceuticals.
- 40:06Speaker 1: They don't like this. They don't like that. I'm not
- 40:08Speaker 1: saying that. I don't know anything about the GLP-1s. I
- 40:10Speaker 1: tried them. I didn't like them. They made me feel weird.
- 40:13Speaker 1: I lost passion for life, truly. But that doesn't mean
- 40:17Speaker 1: that other people, and now I have a meal plan
- 40:19Speaker 1: of a trainer. I'll do peptides. I'll do other things.
- 40:22Speaker 1: The GLP-1s for me, personally, I felt that there was a,
- 40:27Speaker 1: I don't know, I started to lose interest in more
- 40:28Speaker 1: than eating. It was weird. And just for me, and
- 40:30Speaker 1: that's not everyone's experience. So by the way, go take them,
- 40:33Speaker 1: enjoy them. I don't really care. It doesn't matter to me.
- 40:35Speaker 1: I am forgiving them to children.
- 40:36Speaker 3: I am.
- 40:38Speaker 1: I am forgiving JLP1s to toddlers, and I am forgiving
- 40:41Speaker 1: them iPads for them to watch this show and many
- 40:45Speaker 1: others for hours on end every day. That's the reality.
- 40:52Speaker 1: Your kid's not going to play soccer. Cut it out.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Have a realistic expectation for your child. Having a nonverbal
- 41:03Speaker 1: child who just is on an iPad all day that
- 41:07Speaker 1: you shoot up once a week with a needle so
- 41:10Speaker 1: it doesn't eat is the best you're going to do.
- 41:14Speaker 1: Just a quiet child who's constipated from the GLP-1 they're on. Also,
- 41:21Speaker 1: here's the thing with people giving GLP-1s to their toddlers.
- 41:24Speaker 1: You have to remember fiber. You have to remember fiber
- 41:29Speaker 1: because you don't want their stomachs to explode with food.
- 41:36Speaker 1: So you have to make sure the food is moving
- 41:38Speaker 1: through your two-year-old or three-year-old system while they're on the
- 41:41Speaker 1: iPad for eight hours a day. so you have to
- 41:44Speaker 1: make sure they eat fiber so that they shit eventually
- 41:47Speaker 1: so that they don't explode on the couch. Because you
- 41:50Speaker 1: don't want to say, my toddler got gastroparesis, we forgot
- 41:53Speaker 1: the fiber, and my toddler's stomach exploded. My stomach exploded.
- 42:22Speaker 1: It was full of chicken nuggets.
- 42:26Speaker 5: It was full of chicken nuggets and we forgot the fiber.
- 42:29Speaker 5: So my toddler didn't shit out the chicken nuggets. So
- 42:33Speaker 5: his stomach exploded while I was watching the iPad.
- 42:38Speaker 1: So these are the ways to be a parent now.
- 42:40Speaker 1: I'm not an expert. I'm not a parent. But that's
- 42:43Speaker 1: what it's going to be. And we should feel bad
- 42:47Speaker 1: for parents. I like this article that says parents shouldn't
- 42:49Speaker 1: really have to raise their kids. They should be able
- 42:51Speaker 1: to just give them iPads for the entire day. Quote,
- 42:55Speaker 1: this research is a reminder of the pressure so many
- 42:58Speaker 1: parents face. And can I make another comment? If your
- 43:02Speaker 1: toddler on shot day doesn't want to eat anything, you
- 43:07Speaker 1: make sure they eat protein. You have to give them
- 43:09Speaker 1: protein on the day they take their shot. This research
- 43:12Speaker 1: is a reminder of the pressures so many parents face,
- 43:15Speaker 1: and our guidance is designed to offer realistic, evidence-informed advice
- 43:19Speaker 1: that reflects the demands of family life. Not be a
- 43:22Speaker 1: rule book that adds to the pressure. I like Sky News,
- 43:25Speaker 1: because here's what Sky News is saying. Hey, listen. Let's
- 43:28Speaker 1: get realistic. You're not going to raise your children. You're
- 43:32Speaker 1: going to give them the pad, the iPad.
- 43:35Speaker 3: And....
- 43:37Speaker 1: So a lot of parents don't know what to do.
- 43:39Speaker 1: They don't know what to do. The kids are getting
- 43:40Speaker 1: hooked on the screens. But here's the question. What is that?
- 43:45Speaker 1: Is this a baby losing his mind over a screen? Yeah.
- 43:50Speaker 1: What is he wants to watch my program? What does
- 43:53Speaker 1: he mean? Oh, this is just a collection of children
- 43:54Speaker 1: that get mad they can't watch YouTube? Yeah. All right,
- 43:57Speaker 1: let's see a little bit of it. I want to
- 44:02Speaker 1: have the iPad. What's he trying to watch? He wants
- 44:12Speaker 1: to see Tucker? I want Tucker! I want Tucker! All right,
- 44:19Speaker 1: we get it, we get it. They're mad, they're mad.
- 44:21Speaker 1: They're addicted. My godson's addicted to it. What are you
- 44:23Speaker 1: going to do? They're addicted to it. What are you
- 44:25Speaker 1: going to do? They're little junkies in your house that
- 44:27Speaker 1: want their screens. What are you going to deal with them?
- 44:30Speaker 1: You got a bunch of sticky-fingered junkies in the house
- 44:33Speaker 1: that want their goddamn screens. What are you going to do?
- 44:36Speaker 1: Fight that battle? You give them the screen and you
- 44:40Speaker 1: let them watch it. Folks, I'm telling you, I know
- 44:43Speaker 1: it sounds wrong. Otherwise, it gets really difficult, especially if
- 44:50Speaker 1: you have multiple kids. It's very difficult. They don't want
- 44:53Speaker 1: to play outside anymore. They don't want to play outside.
- 44:56Speaker 1: None of their friends are outside. All of their friends
- 44:57Speaker 1: are playing video games. They want to play video games.
- 45:00Speaker 1: So they're going to sit around and play video games.
- 45:01Speaker 1: That's what they want to do. They don't want to
- 45:03Speaker 1: go out. You know, remember when you were a kid,
- 45:04Speaker 1: I was a kid. Maybe not you. You're younger than me. But, like,
- 45:06Speaker 1: we would play Manhunt. You know what I mean? You
- 45:09Speaker 1: would go out and play things, hide and go seek,
- 45:11Speaker 1: stuff like that. They don't do that anymore. They don't
- 45:13Speaker 1: do that anymore. Children do not do that. They're not
- 45:16Speaker 1: interested in that. They want to be on the screens.
- 45:20Speaker 1: That's where they live now. And it's hard to imagine
- 45:23Speaker 1: a world where that changes. So in a world like this,
- 45:28Speaker 1: you have to, I think, give your child the screen.
- 45:33Speaker 1: It's like eating. In AA, which I've been a member of,
- 45:37Speaker 1: or NA or things like that, it's abstinence. It's drugs
- 45:44Speaker 1: or alcohol. You can't do it. go to God, you
- 45:47Speaker 1: do other things, you know. But in OA, Overeaters Anonymous,
- 45:52Speaker 1: which I haven't been in, LOL, they tell you, you
- 45:58Speaker 1: got to eat. So it's not, there's a moderation's not a,
- 46:03Speaker 1: I mean, moderation's essential in that. It's like SA, sexual anonymous.
- 46:08Speaker 1: So you got to have sex, but you can't like
- 46:11Speaker 1: do whatever things you were doing that are bad. Whereas
- 46:14Speaker 1: it's different, like AA, it's like, you can't, you can't.
- 46:18Speaker 1: It's the phenomenon of, but here's the deal, these kids
- 46:20Speaker 1: aren't getting away from the screens. So they're little junkies,
- 46:24Speaker 1: screen junkies, but you need to teach them a responsible
- 46:28Speaker 1: way to use the internet because it's gonna be their
- 46:32Speaker 1: entire life. Otherwise, Mark Zuckerberg's gonna get them later on
- 46:36Speaker 1: and they're gonna go fucking insane. We gave the internet
- 46:40Speaker 1: to a generation of people. They are in the process
- 46:43Speaker 1: of destroying everything in the world. Everything in the world,
- 46:47Speaker 1: by the way. They haven't even had it for that long.
- 46:51Speaker 1: It's not like they've had it for that long. But
- 46:54Speaker 1: they got it late in life and it scrambled their
- 46:57Speaker 1: fucking brain. So what you have to do, do you
- 47:03Speaker 1: know how many people I know who've blocked their own mother?
- 47:07Speaker 1: Do you know how many people I know on Facebook
- 47:11Speaker 1: or whatever and did have told me I've blocked my mother?
- 47:17Speaker 1: She cannot reach me on the internet. If she wants,
- 47:21Speaker 1: she can call me. I have blocked her. I do
- 47:24Speaker 1: not want to see what she posts. I don't want
- 47:26Speaker 1: to see what she shares. I go, your mother? You go, yeah.
- 47:31Speaker 3: So.
- 47:33Speaker 1: I know that the knee jerk reaction is to say,
- 47:35Speaker 1: get the screens out of the hands of kids. Well, sure,
- 47:40Speaker 1: but I think realistically, they're not gonna be able to
- 47:46Speaker 1: exist without having some kind of relationship to a screen.
- 47:52Speaker 1: So I would say if you're one, it's not nine hours,
- 47:55Speaker 1: eight hours a day is too much. How long is
- 47:59Speaker 1: this show usually about an hour? An hour a day
- 48:02Speaker 1: is fine for them. But again, this program, give us
- 48:09Speaker 1: the view. No, I don't know. I mean, what's appropriate
- 48:12Speaker 1: for a one year old? How many hours should a
- 48:15Speaker 1: one year old be spending on the screen? They're not
- 48:20Speaker 1: on social media, but how many hours should a one
- 48:22Speaker 1: year old be on the screen? I mean, I think none.
- 48:25Speaker 1: You think none? Do you have any children? Well, no.
- 48:30Speaker 1: I say no more than five. Here's the way I feel.
- 48:37Speaker 1: If you put your one-year-old somewhere in a house and
- 48:40Speaker 1: give it a screen, you have to set a timer.
- 48:43Speaker 1: And then five hours later, you have to go back
- 48:45Speaker 1: and check on it. On the day your two-year-old takes
- 48:54Speaker 1: a GLP-1 shot, give it a protein shake because it
- 49:00Speaker 1: needs the protein. Otherwise it'll eat its bones. And explain
- 49:07Speaker 1: that to the kid. Say this could eat your bones.
- 49:10Speaker 1: So you have to eat protein. Morgan & Morgan is

- 52:26Speaker 1: What is this? My mother used to talk about Hantavirus
- 52:29Speaker 1: because we had a mouse in our house. And she
- 52:31Speaker 1: was right. It spreads because of rodent shit. And by
- 52:35Speaker 1: the way, everyone on a cruise, let me stop this
- 52:37Speaker 1: right now. Anyone that goes on a cruise anymore, you
- 52:39Speaker 1: deserve exactly what you get. There are so many examples
- 52:43Speaker 1: of why you should not get on this floating toilet.
- 52:46Speaker 1: I mean, anybody, there's documentaries, there's a documentary called Poop Cruise. Anybody,
- 52:53Speaker 1: now I know that you want to go on this
- 52:54Speaker 1: all-inclusive thing. I know that folks, you know when I
- 52:58Speaker 1: grew up, people used to go to a little inn.
- 53:00Speaker 1: They'd go to a little bed and breakfast somewhere. And yes,
- 53:04Speaker 1: cruises are for like old people. I know gay cruises
- 53:07Speaker 1: are fun and you could do molly and stuff on
- 53:09Speaker 1: the ocean. But there's just too much of a chance
- 53:14Speaker 1: for a nightmare to happen on a cruise. It's happened
- 53:17Speaker 1: so many times. How do you even just walk? You
- 53:20Speaker 1: just walk on a cruise down and go, well, we
- 53:23Speaker 1: hope we're not stranded with hantavirus on the sea. So
- 53:29Speaker 1: you can go to a shitty made up town in
- 53:31Speaker 1: Mexico and buy some fake fucking crap you can buy
- 53:35Speaker 1: cocapelli the guy who plays the flute or a dream
- 53:37Speaker 1: catcher some bullshit and now you're you got hantavirus now
- 53:41Speaker 1: after this we're going to watch david muir but after
- 53:44Speaker 1: this i want you to pull up there's a doctor
- 53:45Speaker 1: on the boat who's giving updates about hantavirus but let's
- 53:48Speaker 1: watch david muir hantavirus.
- 53:52Speaker 6: The race to track a deadly virus outbreak that started
- 53:55Speaker 6: on that cruise ship in the atlantic after authorities have
- 53:57Speaker 6: now revealed tonight that many passengers got off that cruise
- 54:01Speaker 6: ship weeks ago. The hantavirus outbreak linked to that cruise
- 54:04Speaker 6: ship and the Atlantic health officials tracking at least 30
- 54:06Speaker 6: people now who got off the ship two weeks ago,
- 54:08Speaker 6: traveling to their home countries all over the world, including
- 54:12Speaker 6: seven Americans now back in the U.S. Three people taken
- 54:15Speaker 6: off that ship in just the last 24 hours, two
- 54:17Speaker 6: of them in serious condition.
- 54:18Speaker 1: Look at this. That's how you're leaving the cruise now.
- 54:21Speaker 1: Freeze on a thing. That is the photo of how
- 54:24Speaker 1: you're going to leave the cruise. Is that what you want?
- 54:29Speaker 1: I'm telling you, stop fucking around with this. That photo
- 54:36Speaker 1: right there is how you're going to exit the cruise.
- 54:40Speaker 1: You walk in, you're excited about the buffet, you leave
- 54:43Speaker 1: like that. Let's continue. Hanta, Hanta, Hanta. Try to find
- 55:03Speaker 1: the doctor. He's on the cruise. He's on the ship
- 55:06Speaker 1: and he's giving updates about Hanta virus, which my mother
- 55:11Speaker 1: was so concerned about. We're going to get to tell
- 55:14Speaker 1: that to my father. She would go, there's a mouse
- 55:17Speaker 1: and he's shitting this house. We're going to get Hanta virus.
- 55:21Speaker 1: And my dad would, you know, do his usual, yeah,
- 55:24Speaker 1: you're overreacting. We're going to get hantavirus because there was
- 55:30Speaker 1: a mouse. We had a mouse. Okay, so a Swedish
- 55:34Speaker 1: doctor who previously worked aboard the luxury cruise ship affected
- 55:37Speaker 1: by a deadly hantavirus outbreak said the ship's medical staff
- 55:41Speaker 1: were likely operating under, quote, tremendous pressure with limited resources.
- 55:46Speaker 1: Let's listen to this man. Now, by the way, I'm
- 55:48Speaker 1: talking to experts. I'm not, but I'm just calling people
- 55:53Speaker 1: that I know, that I think know things, and they're
- 55:55Speaker 1: saying the human-to-human hantavirus spread might be overstated, and it's
- 56:01Speaker 1: probably not such a big deal, but who knows? Anyway,
- 56:04Speaker 1: let's see what this guy says. He's from Sweden.
- 56:07Speaker 7: If they are allowed to disembark, then the passengers will
- 56:10Speaker 7: somehow get home. But, of course, I mean, no country
- 56:15Speaker 7: wants to have the hantavirus spread. in the general population.
- 56:20Speaker 1: Bomb the ship. Bomb that ship. Bomb that ship. That's it.
- 56:27Speaker 1: You went on a cruise. This is the way we
- 56:29Speaker 1: should handle cruises now. If you go out on a
- 56:32Speaker 1: cruise and there's a disease outbreak, you're not coming back.
- 56:38Speaker 1: We've got too many fucking problems in this country for
- 56:41Speaker 1: you to come back with hantavirus. You're dead. Say it.
- 56:46Speaker 1: By the way, don't release the information to the public.
- 56:50Speaker 1: I'm telling the Trump administration, some of them are not
- 56:52Speaker 1: too thrilled with me, but the ones that still listen,
- 56:56Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, and I know they'll have
- 56:58Speaker 1: no moral problem with this, just bomb the ship. Bomb it.
- 57:01Speaker 1: And by the way, this is the new standard. You're
- 57:03Speaker 1: allowed to go on a cruise. If there's any outbreak
- 57:08Speaker 1: of any significance, I'm not talking about like norovirus. I
- 57:11Speaker 1: mean like a hantavirus. If something happens... Just like we
- 57:16Speaker 1: shot down that plane that was going into, that we
- 57:20Speaker 1: thought was going to go into the White House, and
- 57:21Speaker 1: then we made up that story. Let's roll. That's fake.
- 57:23Speaker 1: We shot it down. Just like that happened. Let's roll. Fake,
- 57:29Speaker 1: I think, and I believe. But anyway, we need to
- 57:34Speaker 1: do this with cruise ships of sick people. We need
- 57:38Speaker 1: to get rid of them and then make up a
- 57:40Speaker 1: story that the boat was attacked by terrorists or something
- 57:43Speaker 1: like that. This is, okay, let's get this guy up.
- 57:48Speaker 1: What is this? Passenger on board the cruise ship that
- 57:50Speaker 1: has suspected hantavirus outbreak where three people have died and
- 57:53Speaker 1: five to six people are sick cries out as a
- 57:56Speaker 1: ship remains near Cape Verde. Hantavirus is rare. Go up. Sorry.
- 58:01Speaker 1: Hantavirus is rare, but serious illness usually spread through contact
- 58:04Speaker 1: with rodents or their waste. Let's listen to this guy.
- 58:07Speaker 1: He's making his hantavirus statement. Here he is.
- 58:11Speaker 3: I normally wouldn't make a video like this. but I
- 58:13Speaker 3: feel like I need to say something, so I wrote
- 58:15Speaker 3: a few things down. I am currently on board the
- 58:19Speaker 3: MV Hondias, and what's happening right now is very real
- 58:23Speaker 3: for all of us here. We're not just a story.
- 58:27Speaker 1: All right.
- 58:28Speaker 3: Hold on.
- 58:28Speaker 1: Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Who told you to
- 58:33Speaker 1: get on a boat? No, I'm dead serious. I went
- 58:43Speaker 1: on the Impractical Jokers cruise once to do stand-up comedy.
- 58:46Speaker 1: I walked off that boat. I said, I'll kill myself.
- 58:49Speaker 1: There's no amount of money you could offer me to
- 58:50Speaker 1: do a cruise gig ever again in my life. I said,
- 58:52Speaker 1: I'll kill myself if I have to get on another cruise.
- 58:55Speaker 1: I will take my own life. I will gladly take
- 58:57Speaker 1: my own life. When this guy goes, we're not just
- 59:00Speaker 1: a story, we know you're not just a story. If
- 59:01Speaker 1: we thought it was just a story, we'd let you dock.
- 59:05Speaker 1: We know it's not just a story. That's why you're
- 59:07Speaker 1: not docking with Hantavirus. We got too many fucking problems.
- 59:12Speaker 1: We got AI. We got Iran. We got all this
- 59:16Speaker 1: shit going on. We got aliens. We got the price
- 59:20Speaker 1: of oil. And then you think you're going to bring Hantavirus? No.
- 59:25Speaker 1: We're not just a story. No, you're not. And I
- 59:28Speaker 1: feel bad for this person. And I'm not saying that
- 59:30Speaker 1: this person doesn't deserve empathy or sympathy. I'm simply saying
- 59:33Speaker 1: that the boat he's on should be struck with a missile.
- 59:38Speaker 1: And they should burn alive with their choices. And I'm
- 59:42Speaker 1: not saying they don't deserve sympathy or empathy. I'm saying
- 59:44Speaker 1: you got on the boat, you should be killed. I'm serious.
- 59:47Speaker 1: I'm serious tonight. I've had enough. These people, they bring
- 59:52Speaker 1: these rare outbreaks from the buffet of a cruise ship
- 59:55Speaker 1: with rodent shit. and then they're mad that they can't
- 59:59Speaker 1: go waltz around fucking Macy's. You live with your choice.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: Sit in your bunk on the cruise and get ready
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: to get struck with a missile. You're dead. We're going
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: to kill you. You're dead. Hantavirus will not kill you.
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: The U.S. government will. I'm telling you, I'm sour. You know, Trump,
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: his decisions I don't like. I've soured on him. I
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: thought he had some real good points early on. But
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. If he blows up this ship,
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: if he blows up this hantavirus ship, I'm back. Let's
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: listen to the rest of his statement. Because, by the way,
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: I am serious when I say that you can't take
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: a cruise and then bring, like, a plague back. That's
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: not the way it works. But again, let's start him
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: from the beginning, please, here. This guy is on the
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: Hantavirus cruise ship. Hantavirus, friend of the show. Let's listen
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: to this gentleman.
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: I normally wouldn't make a video like this, but I
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: feel like I need to say something, so I wrote
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: a few things down.
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: Can you stop this for a minute? Why does everyone
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: feel they need to say something? He feels like he's...
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: I know he feels like he's dying and it's sad
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: and it's horrible, and I get it. But here's the deal.
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: You're sitting there in a green shirt and you go,
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: I feel like I need to say something. And then
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: I guarantee you, somehow I get, like, watch. I don't
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: know if he's going to do this, but I feel
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: like this is going to be very, like, it's not
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: going to take a, here's what he should say. Are
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: you ready? Hey, we're pretty fucked. And there's haunt the
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: virus here. It's a real thing. It's not just a story.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: And we realize that it is a very dangerous outbreak. And,
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: you know, even with the best tracking of people and everything,
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: it's going to pose an unnecessary risk to human civilization.
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: We don't need another pandemic. We haven't even recovered from
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: the last one. So I've made this video to ask
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: the government to strike our boat with a missile and
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: blow us up instantaneously and kill us instantly so that
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: the rest of the world can live. Love you, mom.
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: Love you, dad. But let's see what he actually says.
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: That's the selfless thing. The selfless thing for all these
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: people to do on this Hantavirus chip is to take
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: their own life. Selflessly. Selflessly, they should all walk the
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: fucking plank.
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: No!
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: They should walk the plank. I've had enough of this now.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: An old school pirate plank. The Trump administration, with my
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: full support, I'll be back.
- 1:02:52Speaker 3: J.D.
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: Vance, stop telling people you don't like me because I
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: got a big mouth, by the way. We'll get Joe
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: Kenton there. How about that? I'm kidding. But he does
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: have that jaw. They walk the plank. Is it my
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: fault this guy goes to the Iran war? I'm the problem?
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: They make them walk the plank. Now he's freaking out
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: about AI. You see this, J.D. Vance? He's freaking out
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: about AI. He's all upset about the AI. Who's doing
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: the AI? Who's doing that? They have a plank and
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: they make them walk the plank. And God, I loved
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: pirate stuff as a kid. And you make them walk
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: the plank. And at the end of the plank, they
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: get to say something. They get to say something like, hi,
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: this sucks. I feel really scared. I don't know what
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: comes after this. The government just said there was no
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: God and aliens created all of us. That's the last
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: thing I read in my bunk before I was made
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: to walk the plank. because this boat has a hantavirus outbreak.
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: That was kind of disturbing that that's the last thing
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: I read, but I shouldn't have gone on Facebook. That
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: was my fault. I went on Meta. I went on Facebook.
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: There was an article that there was no God. We're
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: all created by aliens. So I guess this is literally
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: the last thing I'll ever do. But I completely understand
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: and agree with our government's decision to make everyone on
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: this ship walk the plank instead of posing an unnecessary
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: risk before the summer months where we hope we see
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: a little spike in spending and the economy repair itself
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: by people buying Martin's potato rolls, burgers, dogs, etc. You
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: know how it is. A couple of vacations. Anyway, let's
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: watch his statement. By the way, this seems insensitive. It's
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: actually not. And your child, if you think it is, continue.
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: I am currently on board the MV Hondias. Yes. And
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: what's happening right now is very real for all of
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: us here.
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: I get it.
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: We're not just a story. Totally. We're not just headlines.
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: Okay. We're people. Yes. People with families. Okay. With lives. Okay.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: With people waiting for us at home. I know.
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: There's a lot of uncertainty, and that's the hardest part.
- 1:05:05Speaker 3: All we want right now is to feel safe, to
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: have clarity, and to get home. So if you're seeing
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: coverage about this, just remember that there are real people
- 1:05:16Speaker 3: behind it and that this isn't something happening somewhere far away.
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: It's happening to us right now. I'll share more when
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: I can.
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: What does the statement even mean? I know it's a
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: real boat with real people with hantavirus. I don't think
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: it's AI. What's he saying? Does he want, does he
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: think I'm going to, and I feel bad for him
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: and his trembling voice. He's sad. But does he think
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: I'm going to say come back with the hantavirus? I
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: just did a photo shoot and I look good in
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: some of these. I just interviewed the cast of Selling Sunset.
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: I don't want hantavirus. That's a non-statement statement. We're real people.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: We exist. We're on a boat. We have hantavirus. We
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: get it. We know you're real people. We know you
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: have families and people that love you. That's the problem.
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: We don't want you infecting them with fucking hantavirus. Here's
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: what I say if I'm him. Hi, I'm on this boat.
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: I don't have hantavirus. I'll kill everyone on the boat.
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: Then test me and let me come home. I'm willing
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: to kill everyone on this boat. Are you reading anything
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: about this Honda virus? Are there any more statements from
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: people on the boat with the Honda? Is he the
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: only one who's live streaming here from the boat? People
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: just can't stop with the screens no matter what, huh?
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: I know it's a boat. I know it's real. I
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: know you're actual people. I know it's horrible. I feel
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: bad for you. My heart goes out to you. I
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: don't want hantavirus. There's a lot of things in my
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: life I want. I don't want hantavirus. I might want
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: to live in Rhode Island at some point, in the
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: Newport area. I like that. I like seafood. I think
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: it's beautiful. But I don't want hantavirus. So, like, I understand.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: It's such a weird non-statement statement. We're people. We exist.
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: We have hantavirus. It's like, bro... You chose to get
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: on this boat, and now you have hantavirus. I feel
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: bad about this. What are you reading so intently over there?
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: Just an article from another... Is there any other statement
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: from anyone on the boat, or is this the only
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: guy that's chosen to update us on the boat here?
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: I'm pulling up one right now. Pull it up. Just
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: because I want to give everyone a fair shake, and
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: I want to hear from people on this boat, because I.
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: You know, is this another person? This is another person
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: who's decided... Listen, man, I feel bad for people with hantavirus.
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: We just can't let... He said they're not being well-informed,
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: the people on the hantavirus. This is going to be
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: like Flight 93 here. I'm telling you this right now.
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: We got to make up something. Let's roll. Okay, this
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: is somebody on the... Is he on the boat? I
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: think so, yeah. All right, he seems, he looks pale.
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: Don't let him off. He looks real pale.
- 1:08:26Speaker 8: Of Northwest Africa.
- 1:08:28Speaker 4: It's very scary because it was nothing.
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: That we were ready for.
- 1:08:34Speaker 6: On 12th of April, we had the first casualty.
- 1:08:39Speaker 8: Ruhi Kennett was on the ship's first leg for most
- 1:08:42Speaker 8: of April and recorded the moments the captain announced the
- 1:08:45Speaker 8: first death.
- 1:08:46Speaker 4: This is my sad duty to inform you that one
- 1:08:51Speaker 4: of our passengers suddenly passed away last night.
- 1:08:56Speaker 8: Why did you decide to record the captain's announcement?
- 1:09:00Speaker 5: I felt something odd.
- 1:09:01Speaker 8: It turns out we were not well informed. The cruise
- 1:09:05Speaker 8: operator says at the time of this announcement, there was
- 1:09:08Speaker 8: no evidence of a virus or contagion on the ship.
- 1:09:11Speaker 8: Three people died following this outbreak, now confirmed by the
- 1:09:14Speaker 8: World Health Organization to be the anti-strain of hantavirus. In
- 1:09:18Speaker 8: rare instances, it can spread from person to person. Health
- 1:09:22Speaker 8: officials are now tasked with contact tracing, with one passenger
- 1:09:26Speaker 8: in intensive care in South Africa, another hospitalized after returning
- 1:09:30Speaker 8: to Switzerland.
- 1:09:31Speaker 3: Dr.
- 1:09:32Speaker 8: Jason Zucker is an infectious disease physician.
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: This is not as easy to spread as things like COVID,
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: but I wouldn't be overly concerned right now if you
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: have travel planned.
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: Not easy to spread, but still a big fear out there.
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: Camila joins us now.
- 1:09:45Speaker 6: Camila, what happens to the people still on board this
- 1:09:48Speaker 6: cruise ship once.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: They dock at the Canary Islands?
- 1:09:51Speaker 8: Yeah, Tom, so the ship is still days away. Spain's
- 1:09:54Speaker 8: health ministry says they will get medical screenings and then
- 1:09:57Speaker 8: go to their home countries.
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: What? No, stop. No, no, no, no. Camila, no, no, no, no, no,
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: they won't. No, no, no, no, no, they won't. They
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: were on that boat. They are to be killed. Camilla, listen,
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: I am anti-killing. We know this. I've had a strong
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: record of that. The people on that boat need to
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: be hunted down by special operations teams and killed in
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: a Jason Bourne-style fashion. Where it looks like an accident,
- 1:10:38Speaker 1: make it look like an accident. Everyone on that boat
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: has to be followed and gotten rid of immediately. And
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: it's got to be quick. And it's got to look
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: like an accident. Who would get on a cruise again,
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: by the way? The captain's like, last night, a passenger
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: sadly passed away. Cruises become nightmares so quickly. Let's play that.
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: Let's play that again. The captain's announcement.
- 1:11:08Speaker 8: The moments the captain announced the first death.
- 1:11:11Speaker 4: This is my sad beauty to inform you that one
- 1:11:16Speaker 4: of our passengers suddenly passed away last night.
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, folks, if you have cruise tickets and
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: you're going on a cruise, I don't know what to
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: tell you. I'm telling you right. I know it's a
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: part of the economy and people will always do it,
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: by the way. And I have no power. I'm not
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: affecting anything. I'm just saying this to my listeners, to my,
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: you know, people that, you know, care about anything I say,
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: stop it, stop it. How many more, how much, how
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: many more incidents, how much more evidence do you people need?
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: Do you really want to be standing there in the
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: middle off the coast of the key, the Cape of
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: good hope, wherever the fuck these people are in Africa
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: or whatever. And the guy comes out and goes, by
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: the way, everybody's going down with Hanta virus on this.
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: And by the way, I don't know if this shows
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: up immediately. So I'm just saying, and I'm not, I'm not,
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: it sounds like I'm being insensitive. I'm trying to save humanity.
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: The entire boat has to be blown to smithereens. It
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: has to be blown to smithereens in the middle of
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: the sea. Sorry. I, I don't want, I don't want it.
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: I don't want it to be the case, but I'm
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: not comfortable with, This is what scares me. People, Iran.
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: What if Iran gets a nuke? What the fuck is it?
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: Bomb them. We don't bomb the things we should bomb.
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: Attack this shit. Attack this shit. I mean, does it set,
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: do I, literally, and be honest with me, do I
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: sound heartless? Maybe a little bit. It's for the good
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: of all. It's for the good of all. It's for
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: the good of all. Bomb the ship. Bomb the ship.
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: We're not just, we're people. We're real. We have families.
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: And you're not allowed to see them. You've been exposed.
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: We know you're real people. You're not allowed to see
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: your families. You've been exposed. And we have fighter jets
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: on the way. We have drones on the way. We
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: don't even need jets. Drone it. Drone it now. Or
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: if the aliens, if the aliens want to get involved
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: here and help, and supposedly they have bases under the water,
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: says Tim Burchett, come up and help us here. If
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: these aliens can do anything for us, come up from
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: your underwater bases and sink this hantavirus ship now.
- 1:13:45Speaker 3: Um.
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: Well, there it is. You know, I... Of course, my
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: heart goes out to everyone on that ship, and I'm
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: incredibly saddened by these events, and I completely am horrified,
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: like many fellow citizens. And I do believe that the compassionate, immediate, legitimate...
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: responsible course of action is to blow that ship up
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: in the middle of the sea with everyone on it.
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: And we should tell them five minutes before we do that.
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: We say, we're going to have to blow the ship up,
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: let them make their videos, give them 10 minutes to
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: make their videos and put them out. Let everybody be
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: able to take their phone out during the last 10
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: minutes of their life and make a video that they
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: can upload to the social media platform of their choice
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: in a deep rage. I can't believe the government's doing
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: this to us. They're abandoning us. This is inhumane. Get
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: it all out. Get it all out. Get it all out.
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: Upload it. Good Wi-Fi. Let them do it. Let them
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: do it. And then blow them off the face of
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: the earth. Good night.
