  Now broadcasting from the next-gen conservative studio in
• 0:12
  Sunny South Florida, bringing you the latest in politics
• 0:16
  current events and pop culture. This is he's the Whitfield
• 0:20
  Report with Sam Whitfield. Alrighty, as always Rumble was a
• 0:38
  bit slow and it's delay. But we are here So welcome to
• 0:45
  the show everyone how are nothing but high energy takes
• 0:51
  tonight baby. I am exhausted.
• 0:55
  No, I I, you know, it's been a it's been a rainy day so it's
• 1:03
  kind of in like it's been a Jeb Bush type day here, kind of low
• 1:08
  energy but just sit back with the bowl of guacamole and chill,
• 1:13
  man. Hopefully, we have less
• 1:17
  technical difficulties than remote connection problem wrong.
• 1:23
  Well, we're not using Twitter spaces, so thank God.
• 1:28
  Yeah, yeah. We were just off are talking
• 1:30
  about that and I was pointing out the stupidity of Twitter
• 1:33
  spaces because I would use them, but you have to use your phone
• 1:38
  you if you can listen on desktop but you can't speak you can't
• 1:43
  even ask for permission to speak.
• 1:45
  Well Max Max. Its new technology to have a
• 1:47
  service that you can use on your phone and a computer, you know.
• 1:50
  Yeah Google Hangout. It never existed, right?
• 1:55
  I love because they never call Twitter website.
• 1:57
  Either they call it a nap even Elan does that?
• 1:59
  And it's like yeah. Okay if you want if he wants to
• 2:04
  do media and broadcasts on Twitter, which he stated his
• 2:09
  intent, let me use a Lon you want motherfucker.
• 2:13
  These cords, he's chords right here.
• 2:17
  Indicate that this is an analog audio microphone.
• 2:22
  Okay. Let me use this on a Twitter
• 2:25
  space so it sounds like it doesn't sound like I'm talking
• 2:29
  through a layer of static and it doesn't unmute on accident when
• 2:34
  I accidentally fucking ass press my phone and it doesn't Echo
• 2:40
  when I do unmute because I'm listening because you're
• 2:43
  listening on the phone as well as speaking on it herder audio
• 2:48
  101. Hey Ilan, why don't you ask some
• 2:50
  fucking audio? People some radio people.
• 2:53
  Um, podcast people, some live streaming people how to set it
• 2:58
  up, but I don't expect that because he likes to use it on
• 3:01
  his fellow. You see like Facebook live, I'm
• 3:05
  going live, right? You'll see some crazy shit
• 3:08
  because normies will just stream, like insane nonsense,
• 3:11
  right? The single mom puts the camera
• 3:14
  on. You know what I mean?
• 3:15
  You see the baby in the background like playing with
• 3:19
  live, electrical wires or whatever?
• 3:21
  Right. You're just like, but won't
• 3:22
  crack. Yes, he's tour.
• 3:23
  King, right. Hera thing is that you can't,
• 3:26
  you don't get that on Twitter live.
• 3:28
  It's just not the vibe. So I don't see the point in
• 3:31
  making it such a phone oriented thing to the point where you
• 3:36
  can't fucking stream on a desktop computer, especially
• 3:40
  when the point of it has largely become a place where people who
• 3:45
  have some notoriety or importance, go to speak, like,
• 3:50
  you know, a presidential fucking announcement.
• 3:53
  Right now and I'm all, I'm okay with them.
• 3:56
  Keeping it Audio Only which prevents that kind of trashy
• 4:00
  stream that you're talking about for the most part because
• 4:03
  they'll just stream their phone and take the video camera off of
• 4:06
  it. It's great for it to be an audio
• 4:09
  open. Kind of form.
• 4:10
  Anybody can join you and I that's that's our bread and
• 4:13
  butter. That's what we came from in this
• 4:15
  internet, shit is open Panel type stuff.
• 4:18
  Yeah. Shmuly, I mean, but all right.
• 4:22
  I need to be able to use audio equipment that isn't my phone.
• 4:27
  Hmm, that's all I ask. Well, the other thing too is
• 4:31
  like, even as a listener like okay the Twitter the Twitter
• 4:36
  files is is a perfect example of this, right?
• 4:40
  Because The Twitter files, the initial Hangouts for those would
• 4:47
  go for like two or three hours at a time and I swear to God at
• 4:53
  some point, like someone on the panel was there was saying oops,
• 4:56
  I'll be right back guys, got to go plug in my phone you know
• 5:02
  because I because I'm doing a long form of audio thing that's
• 5:05
  taking up juice on my phone. Well it's like that's not going
• 5:10
  to change. If you open it up to People Like
• 5:13
  Us, right, there's still going to be people doing that and then
• 5:16
  it's not going to harm them at all.
• 5:18
  But like, I should be able to select an audio input
• 5:21
  whatsoever. But like my point is to is like
• 5:25
  see having having it on desktop or like or like my laptop.
• 5:30
  For example, like I've got my object when I podcast like, I
• 5:34
  know I'm gonna be here for a while, so I just plug my
• 5:38
  computer. And that way, I don't have to
• 5:40
  like interrupt. This show by like finding a, you
• 5:44
  know, a power outlet to plug my iPhone in, sorry.
• 5:47
  I mean, in my opinion, I think that making it Audio Only but
• 5:51
  allowing like OBS to stream directly to it.
• 5:54
  From desktop would be like a huge Improvement, right?
• 5:58
  Yeah. I don't even need OBS.
• 6:01
  I need to be able to select my audio input.
• 6:05
  Yes. Yeah, it's not rocket science.
• 6:08
  I'm sure Yvonne could probably do The coating on this himself
• 6:13
  personally, but whatever the thing is, is that we're sitting
• 6:19
  on it and we're, and we're pointing this out because we
• 6:21
  actually like Twitter spaces, I want them to be good.
• 6:26
  Yeah. And right now, they are not, you
• 6:30
  know, luckily it seems that Rumble is buying they bought a
• 6:34
  streaming companies. My understanding.
• 6:36
  They yeah. Well well.
• 6:38
  Okay. So they basically, they bought
• 6:42
  An app called Colin. Which basically now in the
• 6:47
  beginning it was like mobile-only.
• 6:49
  But they eventually did add like the feature to do web and so
• 6:54
  essentially like you basically can on their website do what Max
• 7:00
  you want, right? Yeah.
• 7:03
  Basically, you know, use your own rig on your computer to do
• 7:11
  like pod Cast now, because I'm going to tell you right now, why
• 7:16
  it does. This bug me so much is because I
• 7:18
  have this handheld Linux PC right here.
• 7:21
  The steam deck, it runs will be S out of the box.
• 7:26
  Right? It's a gaming device but I could
• 7:30
  stream from it. Give me a break.
• 7:33
  The technology is here. Let us fucking use it.
• 7:36
  People who know what they're doing.
• 7:37
  And the thing is, is I actually think a lot of the popular twin
• 7:41
  in this might be why he doesn't go in that direction.
• 7:44
  A lot of the popular fucking space, people would be left in
• 7:46
  the dust because their content is bad.
• 7:50
  It's full of, You Know, audio problems in.
• 7:53
  Oh, are you talking about? I try.
• 7:55
  These are people that don't know what they're doing.
• 7:57
  We could put on a much more professional fucking production
• 8:00
  than them very easily and a lot of people could put on a way
• 8:03
  better production than us. Yeah.
• 8:05
  I mean yeah. I listen to Jesse's Twitter
• 8:08
  spaces all the time. Yeah.
• 8:10
  He's all the time in Twitter spaces and like he does a better
• 8:14
  job than the vast majority of people, but you can definitely
• 8:17
  tell that he's still on a fucking cell phone.
• 8:19
  Yeah. Well, Land.
• 8:21
  And he's like me, he's a guy. That's got a really expensive
• 8:23
  studio with fucking professional audio equipment.
• 8:27
  He shouldn't have to use his phone, but he does.
• 8:30
  Yeah. And so, that is kind my
• 8:32
  question, too, because like, because, you know, a few weeks,
• 8:37
  a few weeks ago, we talked to a like, you know, I guess Tucker
• 8:41
  is going to be streaming to Twitter exclusively, and we
• 8:46
  talked at that and someone actually RL Ali, you know talk
• 8:52
  to me and was like, so, Tucker's gonna go from like his
• 8:58
  million-dollar students. Using his iPhone to do Twitter
• 9:02
  space and now kind of seems like a major down that and that's
• 9:07
  down section, isn't it, right. The perception of Twitter
• 9:10
  spaces, is it their phone GARP and the more you listen to it,
• 9:13
  the worse it gets You listen to ones by like like pot awful.
• 9:18
  I mean, this is a he's like an old-school radio guy and all
• 9:21
  that, that's one thing. But you listen to a lot of these
• 9:25
  guys and they get popular because somebody famous comes in
• 9:29
  their stream and they think they're really good at this, but
• 9:32
  their audios bad. They have, no, they have no
• 9:35
  radio etiquette, they're all talking over each other.
• 9:38
  They're chewing, you know, they got a bag of Doritos and their
• 9:41
  how no, I'm not. Right in your ear.
• 9:45
  It's Fucking and and while somebody's talking to so
• 9:48
  somebody's talking, this guy's got his mic open and he's eating
• 9:52
  and fucking a bag of chitlins or something.
• 9:56
  Who the fuck goes? Well, and I mean, the thing that
• 10:00
  is the other peel of, like, Twitter spaces, free Elon, was
• 10:06
  that like, hopefully you would get someone with a blue
• 10:10
  checkmark, you know, in your space and that would attract
• 10:13
  listeners. However, the funny thing is, is
• 10:18
  like, now the anyway now that any of us can basically buy a
• 10:21
  blue checkmark like it's not that much audience.
• 10:26
  Tractor anymore, which believe me.
• 10:28
  I'm actually glad about look at me.
• 10:32
  I am the checkmark now. That.
• 10:36
  That that's a, that's another funny thing is like, obviously,
• 10:40
  all these celebrities being like sell it.
• 10:44
  So is impersonating me. It hurts me.
• 10:47
  Because because now I parody concept, I'm sure quarks and
• 10:55
  they shouldnít. It's like it's like go sit down
• 11:01
  arrows to and by the way, like she has a great chef Marco Or
• 11:05
  whatever they're doing for like government officials now.
• 11:08
  So like, yeah, she she is still distinguishable I guess.
• 11:18
  I am, you know, before we get we were talking at AI before.
• 11:23
  There is one, I don't know if you guys have seen this since I
• 11:27
  do like the board gaming in roleplay gaming scene and I've
• 11:30
  been shitting on Wizards of the Coast.
• 11:34
  Did you see the new Lord of the Rings Magic?
• 11:38
  The Gathering card controversy? A little bit because my because
• 11:44
  my man more he is sent me something about that, but I'm
• 11:49
  not like, it was only one thing and I am not like that familiar
• 11:53
  with it. So what happened?
• 11:55
  Okay, so what happened is, is they released a series of Lord
• 11:59
  of the Rings themed Magic, the Gathering cards.
• 12:02
  That's what they've been doing to try and remain relevant and
• 12:05
  get people to buy new card packs as they've done crossovers with
• 12:08
  other brands, they did Warhammer, Dungeons & Dragons.
• 12:11
  Ins you name it. And they've now done Lord of the
• 12:14
  Rings, which is obviously a perfect fit for a fantasy card
• 12:18
  game, right? However the artwork has upset
• 12:23
  some people, for example, the card featuring Aragorn, they
• 12:29
  have portrayed Aragorn who is described as j.r.r.
• 12:32
  Tolkien is having like the fairest of skins and all of this
• 12:37
  is black. And when people pointed out that
• 12:42
  that's not the character in JRR tolkien's books, nor is it
• 12:48
  similar to the movie? They're just racists.
• 12:51
  Obviously, like, people couldn't be and, and the people that I'm
• 12:55
  seeing complaining about it are just saying I'm not going to buy
• 12:59
  this because it's empty virtue signal.
• 13:03
  Now that turns into from a guy who actually follows me
• 13:07
  strangely enough on Twitter which is Dave Levi, who's really
• 13:11
  popular within the board Gaming Community and that's probably
• 13:14
  why he followed me, because he saw me posting aboard game
• 13:17
  stuff, but David Leavitt has decided that if you don't buy
• 13:24
  this card, that means you hate black people.
• 13:28
  Or if you think this isn't like an art style that I'm cool with
• 13:31
  and it's too far from The Source material that just means you
• 13:34
  hate black people. So so it's kind of like if you
• 13:38
  don't buy our merchandise mmm that's what they're claiming
• 13:42
  because you know if you don't by saying Whitfield report
• 13:45
  merchandise, you hate, black people.
• 13:47
  Well that's true though. That's a different thing.
• 13:50
  It's not the same. Well you not idea.
• 13:53
  Hate black people. You hate disabled people
• 13:55
  obviously obviously. Now it's it.
• 13:59
  I don't know man. I don't see race.
• 14:02
  What race are you? I don't know what I just see the
• 14:06
  wheelchair. I do have another one.
• 14:08
  That's somewhat interesting is I posted it in our gilded earlier
• 14:14
  to is I'm not sure if it's real but I'm going to I'm going to
• 14:20
  try and bring it up on screen. They also did a version of
• 14:24
  Gandalf and let me see again this Might be an internet fake.
• 14:29
  I can't 100% confirm its legit because I'm not going to buy.
• 14:36
  Magic, the Gathering cards? I decided that that was a scam
• 14:39
  fucking when I was in fifth grade.
• 14:41
  But this right here, I hope it's big enough for the audience to
• 14:47
  see is Gandalf, friend of the Shire.
• 14:52
  Or is it Gandalf song? If you didn't notice, they made
• 14:57
  Gandalf Asian for no reason, That looks.
• 15:03
  Alright, the wizard from Big Trouble in Little Giant town
• 15:07
  then it does. Yeah.
• 15:08
  And off Yeah, so as yards of the coast, once again, going full
• 15:17
  woke and it's not doing well for them.
• 15:21
  I would recommend anybody if you're into Dungeons and
• 15:24
  Dragons, if you're into Magic the Gathering I don't think
• 15:29
  Wizards really has any other major properties.
• 15:32
  But if they do, just give them the Bud Light treatment.
• 15:35
  I'm serious on this. Give them the Bud Light
• 15:37
  treatment because not only are they woke, not Are they pushing
• 15:41
  this political agenda down your throat?
• 15:43
  But on top of that, they are greedy that we just talked about
• 15:47
  this, a few weeks ago, Magic, the Gathering Wizards of the
• 15:50
  Coast sick Pinkerton agents on people They're the worst
• 15:54
  Corporation. I can actually think of right
• 15:56
  now and so if you're into that shit, find an alternative ad&d.
• 16:01
  Hit me up on Twitter. I will help you find plenty of
• 16:05
  wonderful Alternatives and guys writing really cutting-edge cool
• 16:10
  shit like Vengeance. The tennis RPG.
• 16:13
  Pundit mid-tier stuff like red room.
• 16:17
  They have a bunch of interesting games.
• 16:18
  There's so many Alternatives out there.
• 16:20
  Don't give these people your money.
• 16:22
  They hate you. And And also want to preach at
• 16:24
  you. And also want to extract every
• 16:26
  last cent in your bank account, fuck Wizards of the Coast and
• 16:29
  fuck Hasbro to their parent company.
• 16:34
  And that's my red eye. You know, this does bring up
• 16:39
  like an actual. So someone someone DM me on
• 16:46
  Twitter and was like, Hey I wasn't your show on the doorknob
• 16:49
  anything. Really good.
• 16:53
  Why do all these companies? Keep going.
• 16:56
  Whoa, even after the dawn Mulvaney thing and my theory is
• 17:02
  it's because they think that like even though bottle but why
• 17:08
  is your was bad at it or? No.
• 17:10
  Sorry, the Anheuser-Busch was bad.
• 17:12
  They think that they can make woke up some more actually for
• 17:18
  ties. All it's actually simpler than
• 17:21
  Than that most of this shit like in terms of movies, music,
• 17:27
  advertisements advertising, campaigns, things like that.
• 17:32
  This shit is, this is what people don't understand.
• 17:35
  And you need to understand it several years, in the making in
• 17:39
  each regard. So they probably came up with
• 17:43
  the Dylan. I mean, they printed a can with
• 17:45
  the fucking dudes, face on it, right?
• 17:47
  This wasn't something. They put together in a week.
• 17:50
  This is I think they've been working at probably for like,
• 17:53
  two years or something or year at least.
• 17:56
  And this was something they had in the can and but it's worst
• 18:00
  like that's an ad campaign, right?
• 18:02
  That takes probably a year to get off the ground when you're
• 18:05
  talking major Motion Pictures. When you're talking video games,
• 18:09
  when you're talking music and all of this stuff that shit
• 18:13
  gets, you know, made and then edited and then all of that
• 18:18
  stuff over the course of five years or something.
• 18:21
  Like that. Yeah, yeah.
• 18:22
  Five to ten years in some cases. Yeah.
• 18:25
  So you're talking about this shit was conceived of when they
• 18:29
  had us by the balls, you know what I mean?
• 18:32
  And they had an audience for it. And so these corporations were
• 18:35
  looking for that audience. And once you have a particularly
• 18:38
  in the case, look at The Little Mermaid controversy, right?
• 18:41
  Obviously, Disney knew this was a bad film.
• 18:45
  Regardless of The Black Mermaid Scandal.
• 18:48
  I've seen enough of it at this point to determine that.
• 18:52
  It doesn't fall out. Like, it doesn't have a lot of
• 18:54
  things that would attract kids. One of the things about Disney
• 18:58
  characters is, they're very striking Design, This was a
• 19:01
  thing, Walt Disney was very big on and this is the thing that
• 19:04
  Bob Iger, who is now, again, the current CEO also was big on
• 19:08
  because he was in charge of Disney.
• 19:10
  When they came out with blue mermaid Lion, King Aladdin, the
• 19:14
  sort of Millennial Golden Era of Disney.
• 19:18
  So he understands striking characters better than probably
• 19:21
  very, you know, few other CEOs are as Adept at.
• 19:25
  This is him. But when he took over as CEO,
• 19:30
  they had already spent 800 million dollars on this fucking
• 19:32
  film. Was he not going to release it?
• 19:35
  Of course, he's gonna release it.
• 19:36
  He was not there through the entire creation of that movie.
• 19:39
  And he did say that he might be wanting to take Disney in a
• 19:42
  different direction, but he knows like, I know, and like now
• 19:46
  are are enlightened listeners. Now is that that's not going to
• 19:50
  happen for like five years. And so, in the meantime, the
• 19:53
  battles that they've already started like withdraw, On
• 19:56
  DeSantis in Florida and all this other stuff, they kind of have
• 20:00
  to go in on it because now they understand the Bud Light
• 20:04
  treatment a little better because the Bud Light treatment
• 20:07
  has now gone both ways back and forth where where the other side
• 20:12
  is saying, I don't want Bud Light because they essentially
• 20:15
  cooked out on Pride, right? They gave up and they're trying
• 20:19
  to appeal to these evil hateful bigots.
• 20:21
  I'm not going to buy their beer and so now nobody buys it.
• 20:24
  So Disney knows if they try and Immediately and a lot of these
• 20:28
  big corporations to if they try and take that immediate hard,
• 20:31
  turn back to the center, not even the right.
• 20:33
  Just the center just towards a political you know, Baseline
• 20:38
  content that one. They're going to get the Bud
• 20:42
  Light treatment and the left is immediately going to fucking
• 20:45
  start bashing them, cancel culture, all that shit, and two,
• 20:49
  they don't have the content in the oven yet to back it up.
• 20:54
  Yeah. And I'm glad that you mentioned
• 20:59
  the budweis thing because like, I used to drink, I mean I used
• 21:03
  to drink Budweiser, one of my friends at well, people will
• 21:07
  start buying Budweiser starting in July because in July that's a
• 21:14
  that's when they always do it. Like the Fourth of July super
• 21:18
  patriotic, you know, canned and usually, Usually they be right,
• 21:27
  but I think this year was, I think they fucked up so bad on
• 21:32
  the dawn, my main anything that people aren't going to buy the
• 21:37
  American flag cans, even though that campaign has worked in the
• 21:44
  past, because it's real easy, not to, that's the thing of
• 21:49
  inorganic boycott like this. And I've we've talked about this
• 21:53
  before. Or this isn't nobody's directing
• 21:56
  this, you know, this is what people are just saying.
• 21:59
  Like they're fed up and I put out a tweet the other day.
• 22:03
  I said, free advice to leftist. You're not fighting the
• 22:06
  far-right extremists anymore. You're fighting the normies that
• 22:10
  that's yeah, yeah, no. I saw that.
• 22:13
  Yeah, well, yeah, it's like well the other thing too is it's like
• 22:18
  okay, does Budweiser, does Anheuser-Busch believe in
• 22:23
  anything? Thing.
• 22:24
  Because now they just seem disingenuous no matter what.
• 22:28
  Because right, like they did the Dome of anything, it didn't
• 22:33
  work. So they meet a flip to the Holly
• 22:35
  Davidson, you know, special edition for Pro 10.
• 22:40
  The pro tip Mega corpse, don't care about politics at all.
• 22:44
  And they they're all fake woke their, why they're pushing their
• 22:48
  their shit. There's people in there that
• 22:50
  believe in the cause, but the corporation itself answers To
• 22:54
  shareholders. And when you start losing them,
• 22:57
  something like 12 or 15 billion dollars, They don't care so much
• 23:03
  about the politics at that point.
• 23:04
  Yeah, now there are activist shareholders out there.
• 23:07
  There are left-wing communist the by you know, venture
• 23:11
  capitalist types that believe in communism and they'll buy up a
• 23:15
  bunch of stock so that they can be essentially an activist
• 23:18
  stockholder to try and drive the company's politics left but
• 23:23
  they're actually the minority the majority of investors in all
• 23:26
  of these corporations. The only time they're going to
• 23:30
  demand a change in direction from that kind of thing, is when
• 23:33
  they start losing money, another great example of somebody that's
• 23:37
  turning the corner. In my opinion is Warner,
• 23:39
  Brothers, they put out a statement, an actual official
• 23:42
  statement from Warner Brothers about three months ago saying
• 23:46
  that they want to get away from what they considered, quote
• 23:49
  politically charged content, and get to what they want to
• 23:52
  consider what they call quote Middle America values.
• 23:57
  And I don't think what they I mean by that is Hardcore
• 24:00
  conservatism, I think what they mean by that is we should just
• 24:04
  get the fuck out of politics and in they had already made that
• 24:08
  decision in the board and then the Harry Potter game happened
• 24:12
  in completely validated that decision.
• 24:16
  It wasn't just the Harry Potter game though.
• 24:19
  I have not been sighted it. I have some insight but that but
• 24:22
  that was that was an example of it.
• 24:24
  Working is all I'm saying. So you could go from after that.
• 24:28
  You go to the board and say, see, No.
• 24:32
  No, yeah, no. I'm actually glad that you
• 24:35
  brought up that example. That was specifically because I
• 24:37
  do have something to add on to that.
• 24:39
  So the thing with Warner Brothers in particular is
• 24:44
  interesting because Warner Brothers, is the parent company
• 24:48
  of HBO, right? I'm not sure if you, if you knew
• 24:53
  that a lot of people do, but so HBO for a long time for really,
• 25:00
  the past 40 years, Has been like, was really the go-to for
• 25:08
  like, you know, premium cable content when they did, if you
• 25:17
  wanted to see Hollywood pictures, uncensored, it was
• 25:22
  only HBO, that's the only place and then Showtime cropped up
• 25:25
  later. But HBO was first and that they
• 25:28
  would have R-rated films uncut without commercials and that's
• 25:32
  why it was a paid premium channel.
• 25:34
  And I think they got him to original content creation,
• 25:38
  right? Really early on like some of the
• 25:41
  old HBO Originals. Like a lot of people don't know.
• 25:44
  A Fraggle Rock is an HBO original.
• 25:47
  Yep. Yeah.
• 25:48
  Oh yeah. Telling Liz but you know that
• 25:53
  that original content and whatnot, like HP item had a
• 25:58
  monopoly on that and then Netflix came in like you know,
• 26:04
  All a decade ago would early this year and, you know, change
• 26:09
  that with house cards so fast forward to now.
• 26:12
  Right, I promise I'm going somewhere with this fast forward
• 26:16
  to just a year or so ago. Paramount plus, which is
• 26:21
  Paramount Studios app propped up a few years ago and, and HBO,
• 26:32
  and everyone else like scoffed at them because they're like,
• 26:36
  oh, it's it's Paramount Studios who's going.
• 26:39
  Who's going to supposed to subscribe to them and Paramount?
• 26:45
  They were the ones who released Yellowstone, which some people I
• 26:49
  tried to call, you know, Uber right-wing nationalist but no
• 26:54
  it's honestly it's a modern-day West Rand that is non woke,
• 27:00
  doesn't preach. I didn't Eve politics right?
• 27:03
  Like it it's more inspired by probably as I've seen a little,
• 27:08
  I have I'm not a big follower, I don't watch a lot of anything,
• 27:11
  but I had seen the first couple of, right?
• 27:14
  It seems to me, it's based more off of like 60, 70 s Westerns,
• 27:17
  not the Spaghetti Westerns. More like John Wayne kind of
• 27:21
  stuff. Yeah, no, it's more based off of
• 27:24
  like the 60 and 70 but like anything.
• 27:26
  What is it doesn't preach at you, right?
• 27:29
  So Yellowstone, took off You know, it's taken off in the last
• 27:36
  few years and it's made Paramount of shit ton of money.
• 27:43
  And meanwhile HBO and Amazon and all, well, not so much Amazon
• 27:48
  because they've been pretty balanced.
• 27:50
  But all these other stuff is little which is like HBO and
• 27:53
  Netflix are now panicking because The kid that they made
• 27:59
  fun of so to speak, which is peridot, is now kicking over to
• 28:03
  a buddy's asses in the streaming game and they weren't and they
• 28:09
  weren't expecting that. So now they're trying to ditch
• 28:12
  all the woke content and be more like Paramount plus if that
• 28:20
  makes sense. All right.
• 28:23
  Well, and then then there's the whole Warner Brothers And
• 28:27
  Paramount kind of debacle over South Park right where South
• 28:32
  Park made a streaming deal with. I believe it was Warner Brothers
• 28:38
  first before Paramount plus existed.
• 28:42
  And so now what they're doing is offering what they're calling a
• 28:45
  special which is usually just a longer episode to Paramount and
• 28:50
  they're also Streaming new episodes of the show on Warner
• 28:54
  Brothers and there's a lawsuit developing Over this, the thing
• 28:58
  is there's very little content nowadays, that is a subscription
• 29:02
  seller, there, like most people will subscribe to Netflix or
• 29:06
  Paramount Plus or whatever. One thing to watch one thing.
• 29:12
  Most people are not subscribing to these Services anymore
• 29:16
  because it's like Netflix used to be where it was, a One, Stop
• 29:20
  Shop for all kinds of things. Now, everything is Niche,
• 29:25
  everything and they want you to have five different
• 29:27
  subscriptions and very few people do except soy, boys.
• 29:31
  I guess, I don't know who like, who has more than like one
• 29:37
  subscription to like, I don't even think I have any Tights
• 29:42
  video service. I have, I have to know.
• 29:46
  I technically have subscriptions to like multiple of the services
• 29:52
  but I also have a relative who works in cable so I get a lot of
• 29:59
  those for free anyway, but like I think the only one actually
• 30:04
  pay for is Amazon and that's because I subscribe to Amazon
• 30:09
  Prime. I gotta go, I got an uncle that
• 30:13
  works at Nintendo. Yeah Sam's hoist in the Black
• 30:16
  Flag. Ladies and gentlemen.
• 30:19
  No, no, I'm just busting this ball but not like, you don't
• 30:24
  subscribe to a lot of this fucking shit unless you have a
• 30:27
  lot of time to sit there and watch content and guess what?
• 30:30
  A lot more people are watching. Shit, especially younger people,
• 30:33
  YouTube even Rumble. Now, twitch, what's the
• 30:37
  difference is they're providing content, that's free and then
• 30:40
  people will have one or two subs to stuff that they like, but I'm
• 30:44
  weird because I don't watch a lot of movies anymore.
• 30:47
  I don't watch TV. Yeah, I'm a gamer, I like games.
• 30:52
  So if I have time to spare, I'm probably going to be playing a
• 30:56
  video game. Instead, my wife has
• 30:58
  subscriptions to shit, I could probably watch all this shit.
• 31:01
  I don't I don't watch any of it in the funny part is she doesn't
• 31:05
  watch most of it either. I don't I don't watch it.
• 31:09
  I don't want too much. I mean II do like I it is funny
• 31:14
  because ever since getting my PS5 like yeah I do gain a lot
• 31:18
  more than My then I watch TV now and then when I do watch TV, but
• 31:24
  unquote, it's actually it's actual movies and whatnot, like,
• 31:29
  and it's mostly something I already seen before.
• 31:32
  It's funny. Because people say, like that,
• 31:34
  like you said, I don't watch a lot, but, like, I bet you in
• 31:37
  relate in comparison to me, you do because people ask me.
• 31:41
  Have you seen this show? No.
• 31:42
  Have you seen this movie? No?
• 31:44
  Like, yeah. Unless you go fucking 15 years
• 31:47
  ago. The answer is probably no, I
• 31:50
  don't. I don't find the writing
• 31:53
  compelling. I don't find a lot of this shit
• 31:54
  compelling. And the reason I like video
• 31:56
  games is because I don't like just aimlessly sitting at a
• 32:01
  screen. Consume content and a video
• 32:04
  game. I feel like my brain is involved
• 32:07
  but that's yeah, that's yeah. I read a lot of books.
• 32:12
  Oh, I was he the thing I do is like I read like fictional books
• 32:18
  and then I'll see you. I how the movie about that at a
• 32:22
  patient's Stacks, I gave up on that a long time ago because
• 32:26
  I've always been disappointed, always me.
• 32:29
  Yeah. Yeah, very, very rarely the
• 32:34
  first couple seasons of the show.
• 32:35
  Dexter, was pretty good in comparison to the book.
• 32:38
  It was based off of there's a handful that I can point.
• 32:41
  Point two. Yeah, Jeff Lindsay bugs.
• 32:44
  Yeah, but a lot of it that gets translated from novels.
• 32:49
  I end up really really disliking and so I stopped doing that.
• 32:54
  Yeah. The terminate the journalist is
• 32:56
  the only book series that like got success successfully made
• 33:03
  into a show and that's actually good and that's because they
• 33:07
  actually told the author we want you as a Right on this thing
• 33:13
  which was, which is smart of them to do and I mean it's a
• 33:16
  good show but basically that's all I am.
• 33:19
  That's all Amazon has right now and that's because they have
• 33:23
  Chris Pratt starring. So you'd be surprised how much
• 33:29
  of that went over my head? Like that's another one people
• 33:32
  will point out famous actors and I know that Chris Pratt is a
• 33:35
  famous actor and I think I've seen him in something or other
• 33:39
  but like to place him is who he actually Ali is I actually can't
• 33:43
  do that. So who's oh yeah.
• 33:44
  What's his most famous role? So was he in Marvel or
• 33:49
  something? He was, yeah, he was Star-Lord
• 33:53
  and okay, one of the Avengers movies and then I know Star-Lord
• 33:58
  is he was on Parks and Recreation.
• 34:01
  Yeah, I never watch that. Okay, that that that that's like
• 34:06
  a sister show to the office, right?
• 34:08
  Yeah. Yeah, the office is trashed.
• 34:11
  So I don't so you. So you're the way I am with what
• 34:16
  your the way with celebrities, the way I am with like internet
• 34:20
  people where I'm where I'm just like I know mr.
• 34:25
  Maddock her is but who is PBP what hold on?
• 34:33
  That's that's fair be right? Because who is PVP is a good
• 34:37
  question. I still don't know the answers.
• 34:42
  No. It's just I grew up.
• 34:45
  I grew up idolizing like Hitchcock and like old 50s and
• 34:51
  60s stuff. I watched a lot of it with my
• 34:53
  granddad and if you watch that stuff a lot and then you watch
• 34:59
  Modern anything, you can very quickly notice that they talk to
• 35:03
  you now, like you're a child and I don't owe that.
• 35:06
  Oh fuck. Yeah.
• 35:07
  I know. I'm not I'm not disagreeing like
• 35:10
  look my Someone gave me crap the day, because, and by the way,
• 35:16
  happy 93rd fucking birthday to the living legend.
• 35:20
  Clint Eastwood my favorite director and actor of all time
• 35:26
  Bar, None. Yeah, like you Max, I watch a
• 35:30
  lot of old stuff. I mean, including I'll tell you
• 35:33
  this, if Clint Eastwood makes a movie, I go out of my way.
• 35:36
  But yeah. Well yeah like as far as like As
• 35:41
  far as I want a thing. Like who's your who's your
• 35:45
  favorite? Like action star, right?
• 35:48
  And like everyone in my family friend group was like, oh the
• 35:51
  raw, you know, or if they're a little older, they'll say
• 35:56
  Stallone or Schwartz and I said quickly knees would and they
• 36:03
  were like My grandpa. My grandpa says.
• 36:08
  And it's like, well, yeah. Because like, you know, like
• 36:12
  frantically. I don't expect people to be
• 36:16
  weird like me either. I know why people veg out and
• 36:19
  watch stuff. I just don't, but my only thing
• 36:23
  is don't don't give them your money if they're hating you.
• 36:26
  You know? That's, that's my only thing.
• 36:28
  If they're, if they're whole thing is pushing this agenda
• 36:30
  down. Your throat that your bad your
• 36:32
  beliefs are bad. Trump bad if you like him you're
• 36:36
  bad. DeSantis bad too.
• 36:39
  Few like him, you're bad. Like why do you give people that
• 36:42
  feel like you're evil money? And a lot of normies said that
• 36:47
  exact thing about Bud Light? This wasn't like, oh we're all
• 36:50
  going to get together and organize, a boycott, those don't
• 36:53
  work. What this was, is Bud Light.
• 36:57
  That's cringe. That's, that's what's happened
• 37:00
  to know. Everybody's like, when the topic
• 37:04
  of Beer came up, I think I mentioned this last week, but
• 37:07
  it's happened again. Since then in my chat in World
• 37:12
  of Warcraft, somebody mentioned beer and the The Guild Master
• 37:18
  was like, hey no political discussions, please Just the
• 37:22
  word beer and nobody wanted to touch it with a ten-foot pole.
• 37:27
  Because you're why not, you might be in mixed company
• 37:30
  because these are all random people playing a game, right?
• 37:33
  And so some people are going to be on one side, some people are
• 37:35
  going to be on the other and then you just turn Guild chat
• 37:38
  into World War 3 and 2. Both sides have reason to say
• 37:43
  the Bud. Light is cringe.
• 37:46
  No, I actually had a similar experience when I was playing.
• 37:52
  Call of Duty online, the other night.
• 37:53
  Because some were saying, well, June's cut June's coming up and
• 38:01
  in the same thing it's like you know, and and you know the
• 38:06
  person who is leading our party was like what I don't want to
• 38:11
  you know, I don't want to get into any controversial topics
• 38:16
  here. Let's just play this next right
• 38:19
  by the way, ladies and gentlemen of the audience, That is a good
• 38:23
  strategy on how to handle those kind of situations.
• 38:28
  Is you come off like, they don't necessarily know what you're
• 38:31
  about because you're like, yeah, man, we're just doing this thing
• 38:34
  here. You know, it's harder to do with
• 38:37
  like, your family and stuff. But if you're interacting with
• 38:39
  people online in potentially mixed company, just saying, hey
• 38:43
  man, we shouldn't be doing politics.
• 38:45
  Let's just do the game or let's just do.
• 38:47
  This thing is a much easier way than arguing with ideological
• 38:52
  Little People unless you like that anything and sometimes I
• 38:56
  do. So I don't always follow my own
• 38:59
  advice but it is an easier way to get past it because you know
• 39:03
  like like thinking about my guild, right?
• 39:07
  I know some of the people in my guild that I really, really like
• 39:11
  I'm going to disagree with so fucking strongly that it's not
• 39:14
  worth talking about You know. Yeah well mild mild thing too is
• 39:22
  like the thing that right where's do is like and they have
• 39:27
  done this with the Budweiser. Why is thing, right?
• 39:30
  But like they've done it with like plenty of other thing like
• 39:34
  the Gillette when Joy I did there an time, you know man
• 39:38
  campaign a few years ago, the daily.
• 39:41
  Why was his response was? Oh yeah well we're going to make
• 39:46
  our own rose smell. Or something like that.
• 39:50
  And and they did the same thing with like Hershey's and thank
• 39:56
  God. None of these right-wing
• 39:58
  grifters actually decided to like make a beer.
• 40:01
  I've almost just like yeah go like go support your local
• 40:06
  Brewery or something right? I've said before you know my
• 40:11
  beer of choice is always been Sam Adams.
• 40:13
  Yes they have a pride beer. Aside from that are they pushing
• 40:17
  shit down my throat? No is the pride flag on the main
• 40:20
  beer know the pride, beer is the pride beer and they sell it, and
• 40:25
  you can go by the pride beer if you want to, if you want to
• 40:28
  Boston Lager, it's the same as it's always been.
• 40:32
  They don't talk about this shit in their advertising.
• 40:35
  They talk about beer, they talk about what it takes to make a
• 40:39
  good beer, that's in. And that this is again.
• 40:42
  The Budweiser thing, They think that camo cans and fucking
• 40:48
  Harley Davidson is the answer. No, the answer is make a good
• 40:52
  product and what got you to the game in the first place was
• 40:56
  talking about, you know, it's an American Beer, that is for the
• 41:00
  Working Man, and they weren't talking about the political
• 41:03
  aspect of it. They were talking about The
• 41:05
  Echoes and Echoes Luciano, whatever.
• 41:09
  They were talking about your status in terms of economics,
• 41:13
  you know. But but also Did you see the?
• 41:17
  I'm overtired. I'm apologizing.
• 41:19
  No I mean it's fine but what but did you see the ad that they did
• 41:24
  like three days after the dawn of anything where they literally
• 41:28
  tried to do? Just that and it like came off
• 41:34
  Horribly. The Clydesdales.
• 41:39
  Yeah. They like yeah.
• 41:42
  Well. Okay.
• 41:43
  Well they did an ad where it was like someone in marketing like
• 41:52
  Basically tightened into our chat shootie, like make the most
• 41:59
  American Budweiser like ad campaign.
• 42:02
  You can think of and they literally just just like, took
• 42:06
  like, wow, what a I think. So, but it thinks of Americana
• 42:11
  and just did that, it was like the most well, ever, quite well.
• 42:16
  And then, conversely, when I compare it to a Sam Adams
• 42:19
  commercial, it's usually like What's the founders need Jim
• 42:24
  Koch. I think it's Jim Koch and he's
• 42:25
  like I'm Jim Koch and I really love beer and here's a tour of
• 42:29
  our Brewery. And here's some of the values.
• 42:31
  We hold as a company and they're not diversity, equity and
• 42:35
  inclusion, you know what I mean? It's like make a good product
• 42:38
  and treat your customers fairly and stuff like that.
• 42:42
  And that's all he says, I have no idea what his politics are.
• 42:45
  He's probably a flaming Lefty if I were to guess, because he's
• 42:49
  from Boston. But I Don't, I can't discern
• 42:53
  that from him. The way he runs his company at
• 42:55
  all. You know, I wouldn't say this
• 42:59
  like Like the brute, the the people who grew Fat Tire New
• 43:08
  Belgium, and Colorado, New Belgium is like, the owners are
• 43:14
  proud, like Democratic supporters.
• 43:17
  They, they donated to Obama in 2008, you know, I like the
• 43:23
  owners are like publicly, a liberal.
• 43:26
  But, you know, the one thing that they don't do, they don't
• 43:29
  advertise. They don't like stick their
• 43:34
  Politics on their branding. In New Belgium.
• 43:40
  I do not that they that they had a pride beer but again it was
• 43:43
  like it was like a special edition for apply for Pride at
• 43:48
  wasn't the main thing. so, Hmm. Yeah, yeah.
• 43:59
  Budweiser just the funniest part about the whole thing is they
• 44:02
  don't have any idea how to fix it at all and everything they
• 44:07
  try makes it worse and I don't expect that to change soon.
• 44:12
  In terms of you mentioned a friend that had said July that
• 44:15
  their sales will crop back up. I don't know Labor Day weekend
• 44:19
  was their worst weekend ever. Labor Day weekend is usually a
• 44:24
  Big Bud Light fucking weekend, you know?
• 44:27
  I, yeah, I can say I've been to a lot of cookouts where they
• 44:31
  have Kegs and 30 packs and it's all Bud Light.
• 44:34
  Because generally speaking before, all this people have to
• 44:37
  remember Bud Light was considered the most ubiquitous
• 44:40
  beer even though most people who like beer don't like it, but
• 44:44
  most people who don't like beer do and so if you're in mixed
• 44:48
  company and you're not sure the the safe one to get was Bud
• 44:52
  Light. Because even some chicks will
• 44:53
  drink, Bud, Light and dudes will drink, Bud Light and it's it was
• 44:57
  always that. So I went to some party, you
• 45:00
  know, Labor Day, cookouts and stuff.
• 45:02
  And there was not a Bud Light anywhere to be seen this year.
• 45:05
  I've never seen that before. Not once.
• 45:09
  Yeah. No.
• 45:10
  I mean Budweiser my why did encounter Bud Light?
• 45:15
  But it was Vietnamese people at the beach.
• 45:19
  Oh yeah. And he was just like you drink
• 45:22
  beer. I was like yeah.
• 45:24
  You know I was trying to be polite.
• 45:26
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 45:26
  Headed us two Bud Lights. I looked at my buddy and we kind
• 45:30
  of, you know, laughed. It's like I don't know, like
• 45:34
  we're just like do we tell this guy to not hand people?
• 45:37
  People Bud Light in America right now.
• 45:40
  Well, like my first reaction would be like no, sir.
• 45:43
  I'm not gay. Thank you.
• 45:44
  Well, that's, that's what I was thinking.
• 45:46
  Like, does this guy know? Because I just was thinking, he
• 45:49
  probably went to the store and they were like, oh yeah, this
• 45:53
  this this whole thing is like a dollar, you know, I love America
• 45:59
  USA. Yeah, they're like, well, that's
• 46:06
  thing, like, you know, like Budweiser used to, like,
• 46:12
  Budweiser along with Coca-Cola and apple pie.
• 46:14
  And, you know, the Ford Motor Company that basically was like,
• 46:20
  hard like American, you know, iconic branding the old
• 46:25
  Budweiser logo with like the kind of bow tie shape was at one
• 46:29
  time the most recognized symbol On earth.
• 46:32
  Oh yeah. But more than even the Coca-Cola
• 46:36
  logo, which is saying something. Well, well, it's like, the old
• 46:40
  saying goes like, there's no need to break a, you know, why
• 46:46
  breaks me when it already works and for communism?
• 46:50
  Yeah, that's and that's what this this is right.
• 46:54
  These are activists that they have to do everything
• 46:57
  politically they have to push, you know, they want to put the
• 47:01
  same kind. Kind of shit on us.
• 47:02
  Like the same label because conservatives react to things or
• 47:06
  talk about politics, but like if not for their bullshit, most
• 47:12
  normal people didn't even engage with politics to this degree and
• 47:16
  now you've stepped into their domain with the Dylan Mulvaney
• 47:19
  thing in the Target thing as well.
• 47:21
  Now, shout out to forgot. Joe Blow getting number.
• 47:25
  I think, number one on iTunes with his boycott Target song.
• 47:31
  This is, these are not us, right?
• 47:35
  Even, and we're more political than most people, these are no
• 47:38
  armies and they walk into Target and they're appalled.
• 47:43
  They see the Dylan Mulvaney thing and they're appalled,
• 47:45
  they're normal. People who are like, this is way
• 47:48
  too far, they don't hate trans people for one that's, that's
• 47:53
  important to remember. They don't actually care most
• 47:56
  normies about trans people, unless you're pushing it on
• 47:59
  their kids or, you know, getting in there flow with it.
• 48:03
  Yeah, well, I would go step further Max.
• 48:06
  It's not even that they, it's not in that, they You know,
• 48:11
  don't hey, transgenders, it's normies.
• 48:14
  Still don't understand transgender.
• 48:18
  I would say so like, oh, they understand enough to know like
• 48:23
  like the Normie response to it is like yeah, everybody can live
• 48:27
  the way they want to live. And but but then they it's it's
• 48:31
  literally, it's with no step on snack.
• 48:33
  They're like, yeah, everybody can live the way they want to
• 48:35
  live and then they got stepped on and they fucking struck.
• 48:40
  Yeah. That's it.
• 48:41
  That and this is simple as that. And it didn't start with Bud
• 48:44
  Light. I'll tell you that.
• 48:45
  I I've seen it a PTO meetings in person.
• 48:49
  It started with the school shit. Everybody went to my kids
• 48:52
  school, a bunch of parents concerned parents at a PTO
• 48:55
  meeting asking about this shit and it turns out that they're
• 48:58
  actually not pushing anything like that at that school.
• 49:01
  But you got to be involved. I think it said that last week,
• 49:03
  you got to be involved. That's the big thing, if your
• 49:06
  kids in a public school or even a private school.
• 49:08
  Now, you got To be involved. And then I know there's do Mirza
• 49:12
  be like, oh, you should homeschool you should homeschool
• 49:14
  well, you fucking homeschool. All right?
• 49:17
  Like I have, it's not for everybody.
• 49:21
  Okay, that's all I'm saying. Not everybody's in a position
• 49:24
  that they can spend eight hours a day homeschooling.
• 49:28
  Okay. Especially for little little
• 49:30
  ones and also I like my kid going to squeeze the most
• 49:33
  popular kid in school. But I can't take my eye off the
• 49:37
  ball, so I still have to dedicate a Good amount of my
• 49:40
  time to school. Maybe not as much as
• 49:41
  homeschooling. But I know all his teachers, I
• 49:45
  talk to them. I know what he does in school.
• 49:47
  I know videos that they watch. She just an email, we know the
• 49:50
  lesson plans, we know what they're doing, but you have to
• 49:55
  do that, right? You can't just let it ride
• 49:58
  because then next thing, you know your kids secretly
• 50:01
  transgender. But that was what riled up
• 50:06
  normies long before Bud Light. I promise you.
• 50:11
  And I mean, you can include like minority groups in this because
• 50:15
  I there were Black and Hispanic parents at the same meeting and
• 50:19
  they were some of the loudest ones on the topic, by the way.
• 50:23
  Oh oh yeah. Well and well that's that's the
• 50:27
  that's a thing. Is this whole this whole
• 50:29
  transgender thing as my Cuban, as my Cuban neighbor said, man,
• 50:37
  this whole transgenders stuff is a bunch of why There's a bunch
• 50:42
  of white. Shit is a bunch of white is a
• 50:46
  bunch of white peep-peep oash. I can do a Cuban accent.
• 50:51
  Eyeball goes they were his exam. Yeah this transgender stuff is
• 50:56
  white people shit basically I would venture to guess the in
• 51:00
  the Cuban population. Specifically, the number of
• 51:03
  transgenders is probably the lowest of almost any ethnic
• 51:09
  group in America. It particularly Cuban Cubans,
• 51:14
  not big on the gay shit. Just calling it out there.
• 51:17
  Not by and large. Yeah, there's obviously gay and
• 51:20
  proud Cubans out there, I'm sure, right.
• 51:24
  But but as a population group, especially in Florida, yeah,
• 51:30
  i-i've known a few Cubans down there in my day and then they
• 51:33
  don't really like the gay shit. Many of it, you know, but
• 51:38
  they're not hateful either. They're just like, yeah, we
• 51:40
  don't. That's not part of our culture.
• 51:43
  Yeah, they'll get lectured that they're being racist or
• 51:46
  whatever, and it's like, fuck you.
• 51:47
  It's not there. Make the Cuban culture is very
• 51:51
  masculine. Actually.
• 51:53
  That's just what it is. Yeah, yeah, no one.
• 51:57
  Am I One of my. 1981. A, my neighbor's got accused of
• 52:04
  being a racist by someone will check and he's and he's and he's
• 52:09
  an immigrant, right? So, my neighbor just goes.
• 52:14
  I am how you say in English, a brown person.
• 52:20
  So, therefore, I can't be racist racist, it turns out you can,
• 52:27
  but but only a white supremacist.
• 52:29
  That's what we've learned the last couple of weeks.
• 52:32
  You can be a brown, or black, or whatever kind of Asian, whatever
• 52:37
  kind of person, I don't even know.
• 52:39
  Here's the thing, when I was a kid saying, Brown was like super
• 52:44
  fucking offensive, calling calling somebody a brown person,
• 52:48
  or a colored person was super offensive.
• 52:52
  When I was a kid. Now, that's what they want to be
• 52:54
  called. I have trouble keeping up.
• 52:58
  Yeah, well yeah, but the black people I know black and brown.
• 53:01
  Or whatever people, I know in real life, don't get hung up on
• 53:04
  that shit. Only only only like middle-aged
• 53:08
  white soccer moms, get hung up on that shit in real life, but
• 53:11
  whatever. Yeah, now I got, I got told by
• 53:16
  someone, is used the word disabled.
• 53:19
  I should use the word differently.
• 53:22
  I should use the word different way of all the time.
• 53:24
  Like what the fuck does do does, give away all this.
• 53:30
  That's all I want to know. We all have different.
• 53:33
  We all have different abilities. Oh, that's right.
• 53:37
  So the question is, then to this person obviously,
• 53:40
  hypothetically, If his abilities are different than mine.
• 53:45
  What ones does he have physically?
• 53:48
  That I don't. You know, I mean, it's not
• 53:53
  differently-abled, it's disabled.
• 53:55
  Certain things are just cut off because of your physical
• 53:58
  condition. George Carlin went into this, in
• 54:01
  one of his most famous the if you want to listen to the stand
• 54:05
  up of it, it's called parental advisory.
• 54:07
  Explicit lyrics, was the name of the record, but he talks about
• 54:11
  the euphemisms and it's interesting to see because I
• 54:15
  actually once got suspended from school and middle school for
• 54:18
  doing that bit and the English teacher chick her.
• 54:22
  Add me and she was like super offended but the idea is using
• 54:25
  flowery language for things like differently-abled I believe in
• 54:29
  the example he used it wasn't differently-abled.
• 54:31
  It was handi-capable. Yeah, you're not disabled your
• 54:37
  you're not handicapped, your handi-capable.
• 54:39
  Oh, that makes it so much better because now that you called it
• 54:42
  that you know, I, you know, it's fine that I can't walk, right?
• 54:46
  Fuck you man. It's like yeah it's a set of
• 54:50
  challenges that you have and you're aware of and you deal
• 54:54
  with every fucking day and however you want to fucking
• 54:56
  Define. It is fine by me.
• 54:59
  I'm not going to like it seems that you're a fucking child and
• 55:03
  you need told to you with, with fucking a spoonful of sugar,
• 55:06
  right? It's like, yeah, not this
• 55:08
  motherfucker knows. He's been this way a long time
• 55:11
  at this point. He doesn't need you to pussyfoot
• 55:14
  around the goddamn issue. Yeah, in fact, it's actually,
• 55:18
  it's actually an insult when people when people do it's like,
• 55:21
  it's like, I've been living with this shit for basically, my
• 55:24
  entire fucking life. I'm pretty sure that.
• 55:27
  Um, after almost 30 years of this shit, I can handle.
• 55:31
  I can handle the truth. That yes, I am.
• 55:34
  In fact, disabled shocker, I know and it's in, it's not even
• 55:40
  that big a deal in terms of, you know, you still have a life.
• 55:44
  It's different than other people's.
• 55:46
  In a lot of ways but you you rock it, you do your thing and,
• 55:50
  and nobody fucking cares. You don't need to be treated
• 55:53
  like, oh well, you have special abilities, like no actually not.
• 55:58
  And, you know, we were talking about this before the, the
• 56:02
  cybernetics you mentioned it, the great segue into a, I, by
• 56:06
  the way you mentioned using AI or text to speech, applications
• 56:11
  helped, you greatly in your education.
• 56:13
  And as and I said, yeah, like that.
• 56:16
  Technology. They always don't want to talk
• 56:19
  about the benefits like cybernetics people really?
• 56:21
  Go cyberpunk cyberpunk. Yeah.
• 56:23
  But if I could get Sam a set, a robot legs and he could cruise
• 56:27
  around town. I'm sure he'd fucking love it.
• 56:29
  I'm sure it would make things a lot easier for him, right?
• 56:33
  Oh yeah, well here's the thing, if I could and they and again
• 56:37
  this goes back to kind of a job. I've had this conversation off
• 56:42
  air and with people and Max and I just Talk about look II, get
• 56:48
  the fear behind Ai and it's not completely Justified but I am
• 56:55
  sorry just because just because Chad GPT is all to respond to.
• 57:02
  Now that does not mean that the Terminator is going to happen
• 57:07
  overnight. Could we get to a point where it
• 57:09
  gets to Terminator levels of, you know AI.
• 57:14
  Yeah. But that's Like way off.
• 57:18
  In fact, because tragedy BT isn't going to be Skynet.
• 57:22
  And I can tell you why, because it's not that advanced actually.
• 57:26
  It's and Kurt said this, when he was on the show, a couple months
• 57:30
  back, right, Kurt Doolittle. It's literally, it's a really,
• 57:35
  really Advanced Markov chain bought, which is the simplest
• 57:39
  kind of chat bot that exists. All it does is it has a database
• 57:44
  of stuff and it uses all of that to model.
• 57:48
  A human speech back to us. That's all it really is at its
• 57:53
  core. It's looking through database,
• 57:56
  and it's learning how to, to talk to us.
• 57:59
  And that's why when it's great that you can have the
• 58:02
  conversations back and forth with chat GPT that's built-in on
• 58:05
  purpose, because if it says stuff, that doesn't make any
• 58:09
  sense, you'll say something right and learns from that it
• 58:13
  learns the best ways to word things, but it's still you.
• 58:16
  It's using a Bible of Set number of potential combinations of
• 58:21
  words how they be used in. It was all written by human,
• 58:25
  it's not actually thinking like you or I it's checking the
• 58:30
  database and giving a response to emulate human speech.
• 58:35
  That's it. And and this is why you can get
• 58:39
  the. We were talking about this off
• 58:40
  are you can get it to say that's against the rules and then it
• 58:43
  will immediately break those rules.
• 58:45
  Because it doesn't think like us, it doesn't have that That
• 58:48
  kind of chain of logic, it doesn't have a sense of time as
• 58:53
  well. It's as far as its concerned
• 58:57
  it's at a stagnant point in time because it's not capable of
• 59:01
  these kind of abstractions. It seems like it might be
• 59:07
  because to the untrained eye. It emulates human speech so
• 59:11
  well. That you think that that's what
• 59:14
  it's doing, but it's not, it's literally a chatbot, that's all
• 59:19
  it is. So, the way I think of like, AI
• 59:23
  technology specifically, we'll chat GPT, right because as
• 59:28
  someone who writes both professionally and as like a
• 59:31
  hobbyist, I basically use chat GPT as like a glorified virtual
• 59:37
  assistant / editor for one. I write stuff like, like the
• 59:44
  like, the next step of grammarly or something.
• 59:47
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
• 59:49
  What do I use as well? Not just grammarly, but also
• 59:53
  story. It's, which is like which
• 59:55
  stories is like a is like a story plot software?
• 1:00:01
  Like, okay. So what are you like?
• 1:00:05
  I wrote the I wrote this article on my experience of using AI as
• 1:00:11
  a disabled person, right? I wrote, I wrote a rough draft,
• 1:00:16
  And then I paste it into jagdeep Shaggy Beauty.
• 1:00:21
  And I'm like, restructure this as a as like a blog post and it
• 1:00:28
  got rid of a bunch of jargon and whirring this, I've been using
• 1:00:32
  it cranked, my, you know, punctuation and whatnot, which
• 1:00:36
  is pretty good. But still, I mean, it just
• 1:00:39
  proof. Read everything and made a lot
• 1:00:41
  tighter than was And one of those blog posts is what I was
• 1:00:46
  referencing, right? You made the blog post about
• 1:00:49
  using AI or some type of Technology.
• 1:00:53
  Yeah. Like like people got on their
• 1:00:54
  sand. I'm sure holding a pencil.
• 1:00:57
  Wasn't the easiest thing in the world for you?
• 1:00:59
  But text-to-speech probably opened up a lot of fucking
• 1:01:01
  doors. I like and I can tell you that
• 1:01:05
  it that it did and I mean I think And again, going back to
• 1:01:12
  my blog post. I don't think people like people
• 1:01:15
  think that the AI thing because of Chad GPT is brand-new but no
• 1:01:21
  in reality like I'll get a really you know he's example for
• 1:01:27
  some of the older you know what's nerves are in by older
• 1:01:29
  people. I mean people my age and you
• 1:01:32
  know Max adage but like if you grew up with if you ever use
• 1:01:38
  like an iPod or ever had to plug in like you know your mp3 player
• 1:01:43
  to a computer there was a database at one point that would
• 1:01:49
  like that would guests like songs that you should buy off
• 1:01:54
  the iTunes Store or off Amazon based on was already you know on
• 1:02:00
  your device. Now that was very limited you
• 1:02:05
  know verse Of AI. But that was still a, i
• 1:02:08
  nonetheless it was using an algorithm to like customizer to
• 1:02:13
  you. And that's still II.
• 1:02:17
  It might seem simple but it still fits the case.
• 1:02:21
  Hmm. You know, and in terms of like,
• 1:02:26
  text-to-speech, like the old software, like, like I had to
• 1:02:32
  train like the like Dragon speaks like, recognize my voice,
• 1:02:39
  like, our into, like recognize my, my new he wants.
• 1:02:44
  And it had like build a database Dragon.
• 1:02:48
  Yeah, Dragon speak. Back in the day, did all this
• 1:02:50
  stuff for those. That don't know.
• 1:02:52
  It was a software like that but it was A lot bigger learning
• 1:02:56
  curve. I utilized it in a middle
• 1:02:59
  school. The big thing was that you had
• 1:03:01
  to con, you had to teach it. Hmm, your voice.
• 1:03:05
  Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah.
• 1:03:08
  And oh, yeah, well, let me tell you like, how it was.
• 1:03:11
  It was, it was really useful tool, but I will tell you how at
• 1:03:17
  certain points when I was in Middle School and the height one
• 1:03:20
  more in middle school, but like, even in high school a little
• 1:03:22
  bit, it got to be a real pain. Yeah, that's because because
• 1:03:27
  because your voice to changed a little and you had to retrain
• 1:03:31
  it. Yes it yes, exactly.
• 1:03:35
  And not and not just once not just on a monthly basis, it was
• 1:03:40
  like a weekly. Yes.
• 1:03:42
  That one point although stand. So it was it was like when it
• 1:03:46
  can be the most useful to somebody like you, right middle
• 1:03:49
  and high school, you know, that's when your voice is
• 1:03:52
  changing and it creates a whole new set of okay.
• 1:03:55
  Hey, I got to use the dragon speak.
• 1:03:57
  Today, I'm gonna have to retrain it.
• 1:04:00
  Yeah. Although to be fair like Despite
• 1:04:06
  all of the glitches, it all scream would like some hilarious
• 1:04:10
  going to strip one at one point like because I can't even I
• 1:04:15
  can't even remember what the word.
• 1:04:18
  I can remember what the initial word I was trying to say was,
• 1:04:21
  but with something like really innocuousness in innocent right?
• 1:04:26
  But because my voice had changed, I think it like
• 1:04:29
  translated whatever I was saying into like poison into like holy
• 1:04:35
  fuck. Curse only law like that.
• 1:04:38
  It was like some extra. So yeah.
• 1:04:43
  Yeah. And so the modern stuff is
• 1:04:45
  obviously leagues better in that.
• 1:04:47
  Like if you if you pick up, you know, most people got a phone
• 1:04:51
  and they can say a thing. You know, I'm not going to say
• 1:04:53
  the word this time. I know, I triggered people on
• 1:04:56
  previous episodes by saying Alexa, but um, Alexa play
• 1:05:02
  pornography, no. Sorry sorry you pick up your
• 1:05:09
  phone, you say the keyword to it and most of the time and gives
• 1:05:13
  you a close approximation of what you've said without too
• 1:05:17
  much fuckery. Where is it?
• 1:05:19
  The dragon speak. It was constantly tinkering
• 1:05:22
  constantly messing with it. By the way, joy that pouring
• 1:05:27
  guys, I'm sure Alexis helping you out.
• 1:05:31
  Well, and also not to mention, not to mention, you know, not to
• 1:05:35
  mention that. There was a lot of content
• 1:05:37
  changing also like the Dragon, Naturally Speaking, like, like
• 1:05:43
  when I first started using at least why, like, it was a
• 1:05:47
  thousand dollars just for the software itself.
• 1:05:51
  Now, eventually got cheaper with like each version and, you know,
• 1:05:56
  eventually basically like became obsolete once all the, you know,
• 1:06:01
  once all the devices, just had it built in.
• 1:06:06
  And it was pretty good but still.
• 1:06:10
  Hey Siri what is best score.com? I'm so sorry, I'm I apologize.
• 1:06:19
  Now see now? See this is why you use
• 1:06:22
  headphones when you podcast because that's right.
• 1:06:27
  Or when you're listening to us, I know, two guys that were
• 1:06:31
  roommates and they were talking about how the Alexa could listen
• 1:06:34
  to him. And says, Just started selling
• 1:06:36
  like making up fucked up, things about the other guy and tell him
• 1:06:40
  Alexa amazing. You know, and then they got done
• 1:06:46
  in there like, you know, that was probably not the best thing
• 1:06:49
  to do, you know? Yeah, you're probably was not
• 1:06:52
  the best thing to tell Alexa that your roommate is a kiddy
• 1:06:55
  diddler. Right?
• 1:07:01
  Well, I well, I well, again, this goes back to the whole
• 1:07:06
  thing of like of like, well, the government is spying on you and
• 1:07:12
  it's like, well, maybe they are but like, I would like I would
• 1:07:16
  almost feel sorry for the guy was like, watch.
• 1:07:21
  Like just like, oh our fed is is probably at his wits end because
• 1:07:27
  one we don't offer anything of value for him because, you know,
• 1:07:32
  strongly disavow violence and stuff like that.
• 1:07:36
  But to he has to like imagine reading our gilded server for
• 1:07:40
  one. By the way, if anybody wants to
• 1:07:42
  join the guild that server, right?
• 1:07:44
  Hey, come, come, come join. We have a good time, but imagine
• 1:07:47
  being that guy reading, just the memes and stupid.
• 1:07:50
  Inane bullshit conversations we have or me just given dad advice
• 1:07:55
  to people like like you're the fed and you're like this guy
• 1:07:59
  talking about joining boxing gym again, fuck's sake.
• 1:08:06
  Yeah, I feel from I actually like, I have some solidarity are
• 1:08:10
  fed. You know, I feel your pain,
• 1:08:14
  maybe you should get a real job. Yeah.
• 1:08:21
  Yeah. Well you know you know you know
• 1:08:29
  Like no, this is in turn shit right here.
• 1:08:35
  We don't even get an agent. Maybe not even an intern.
• 1:08:38
  We get like a druggie that they're trying.
• 1:08:40
  You know what I mean is like, watch this and tell us if
• 1:08:42
  anything bad happens. That's what we get.
• 1:08:45
  Well I like I'm assuming that my fed at this point is like it's
• 1:08:50
  like Sam I would donate to your show but I make less than you do
• 1:08:56
  and doing this. This doing this show, true.
• 1:09:03
  Yeah man, you go out and go out and don't don't do that for the
• 1:09:06
  government anymore. They don't appreciate you, we
• 1:09:08
  appreciate you. Yeah, you know what you really
• 1:09:12
  look, you lovingly read through everything.
• 1:09:14
  We're put, it were writing your listening to everything.
• 1:09:17
  You're our biggest fan. And as our biggest fan, I just
• 1:09:21
  want to say, you deserve better than what the government is
• 1:09:24
  treating you like. Yes, go get it.
• 1:09:28
  Job in the Private Industry. You'll feel better.
• 1:09:30
  I promise you paid not to Hey, at least at least with my always
• 1:09:37
  with the FED watching. Me, you've actually get into the
• 1:09:40
  like, see some attractive ladies at times instead of like,
• 1:09:44
  whatever, like, you know, non-binary propaganda, they're
• 1:09:52
  forcing you. Cui like on the government side
• 1:09:57
  so that's good. Always well I mean if they spy
• 1:09:59
  on you you know like at the old Playboys, they spy on me, they
• 1:10:03
  get the they get the thick Goblin chicks.
• 1:10:07
  So That sounds well yeah, probably not.
• 1:10:16
  In a fucking lecture lecture and talking about like 2009, like
• 1:10:28
  it, like it was recent that it was never-ending.
• 1:10:35
  No, it really was right because like we got the new Call Of Duty
• 1:10:39
  Modern Warfare and classic Wrath of the Lich King launched and
• 1:10:46
  New metal was on the charts. Yeah it was 2009 just like six
• 1:10:50
  months ago. What are you talking about?
• 1:10:54
  So sometimes it really does feel like that though.
• 1:10:58
  Well it should because 2009 really 2014 is where I think it
• 1:11:02
  really went off the rails but like 2009 is a great time
• 1:11:07
  capsule of what things used to be like like, we used to have.
• 1:11:12
  Yeah, we used to have stuff. It was good.
• 1:11:15
  Life was good. You know, you didn't have to be
• 1:11:18
  a political F slur all the time. Well, I mean, you know, like I
• 1:11:25
  had to say this like, as far as like, it's interesting that you
• 1:11:30
  say that because like as much as I did, as much as I dislike him,
• 1:11:36
  if I had to I would take Obama over by then in a heartbeat.
• 1:11:45
  Yeah, but that's not actually a choice.
• 1:11:47
  Like Biden is just Obama's third term.
• 1:11:51
  But what they had to accelerate it because they had four years
• 1:11:54
  of trump in between, but yeah, I know, Biden Biden or Hillary in
• 1:12:00
  2016 would be pretty much identical.
• 1:12:02
  Just a continuation of those policies stacking federal
• 1:12:06
  agencies. Now, they want to Stack the IRS
• 1:12:08
  but they already stacked the FBI and the CIA under Obama.
• 1:12:11
  So it's not that much of a fucking stretch not and the IRS
• 1:12:15
  was already stacked with left-wingers to begin with.
• 1:12:18
  We know this because they literally just Went after
• 1:12:21
  right-wingers in 2012 when after the Tea Party and shit.
• 1:12:25
  So we kind of know that there are already stacked.
• 1:12:29
  Yeah, Biden's dream was to stack the court but, you know, he
• 1:12:35
  played it too close to the Sun and that's not going to happen.
• 1:12:38
  Unless on the off chance that Biden gets 80.
• 1:12:43
  He got what 81 million? They say, right?
• 1:12:45
  81 million illegal votes or whatever if he got 150 million
• 1:12:52
  next time he could totally stack the court and that's possible
• 1:12:56
  with the way they steal votes, you know, they they get do it.
• 1:13:01
  Oh, yeah, totally. We could get 70 million dead
• 1:13:04
  people. Voting next year.
• 1:13:05
  That's possible. It's I mean, all right, that's
• 1:13:12
  the big lie, right? We're not supposed to talk about
• 1:13:14
  that. Well, that would thank God for
• 1:13:18
  rumble where we can talk about true.
• 1:13:22
  That well, I mean, so going back to AI, this does tie it back in.
• 1:13:28
  I wasn't aware of this control this week, but but apparently
• 1:13:33
  Kamala Harris of all people is the new Tsar for a is like,
• 1:13:38
  Biden's new AR. Or let AI Tsar.
• 1:13:44
  It makes a lot of sense because she's an NPC.
• 1:13:47
  So she understands the inner workings of robots.
• 1:13:51
  Very well. I like it but no seriously.
• 1:14:00
  None of these people on like She's the Boomers and Technology
• 1:14:07
  go together like fucking oil and water dude and any Boomer and
• 1:14:11
  and like I know it's again when I talk about the Boomers stuff
• 1:14:15
  you know there's always going to be that one guy but like what my
• 1:14:17
  dad worked in the tech field I get it right you had the Boomer
• 1:14:20
  the understands Tech but then think about all the other
• 1:14:22
  Boomers you know, especially if your Tech guy like me, We you
• 1:14:26
  think this is, they're all like, hey you know how to fix
• 1:14:29
  computers, can you fix this? And they hand it to me and it's
• 1:14:31
  like covered in a fucking pain. A'ight.
• 1:14:34
  Cream, you open it up and there's a dead rat inside and
• 1:14:37
  they're like, oh, I don't know why it didn't work.
• 1:14:41
  Oh, and it's running and it's running Windows me for some
• 1:14:44
  reason. Boomers and technology in.
• 1:14:49
  This is why them legislating technology has been such a dmca
• 1:14:54
  is one of the worst ways that they could have dealt with
• 1:14:58
  copyright in the digital era. Yeah, but it was written in the
• 1:15:02
  early 2000s when we didn't really know, Oh, how the
• 1:15:04
  internet was going to grow by Boomers.
• 1:15:08
  It was written by Boomers, that think about that Boomers
• 1:15:11
  nowadays, have experienced like smartphones and like social
• 1:15:15
  media sites. Think about in the early 2000s,
• 1:15:19
  we didn't even have those things.
• 1:15:20
  And what was there? What was their exposure to the
• 1:15:23
  internet? Somebody would come in front of
• 1:15:24
  Congress and say my kid talked to a bad person on the internet
• 1:15:29
  like, oh, this is bad. We gonna like, don't let Boomers
• 1:15:34
  Legislate technology. We don't know if there's one
• 1:15:37
  thing I could suggest to the audience is for the most part on
• 1:15:43
  a local and and Congressional level, especially vote out
• 1:15:48
  Boomers and older, just vote him out, get him out of there, get
• 1:15:52
  him out of there, they don't understand the shit.
• 1:15:55
  They're legislating us into Corners that we can't get out of
• 1:16:02
  Like the band Tick Tock thing. It's like, yeah, we got a band
• 1:16:05
  Tick-Tock. Also, we got to have
• 1:16:06
  unprecedented spying power on you.
• 1:16:09
  That's Boomer shit right there. That's what they do.
• 1:16:12
  Yep. Well, because, well, yeah,
• 1:16:15
  because they filled the bill could could have been, you know,
• 1:16:18
  hey Chinese corporations, can't sell the shit.
• 1:16:23
  On a they can't sell their Digital Services.
• 1:16:28
  All right. It's like a literal like a
• 1:16:30
  one-page bill. Instead it's like no, the head
• 1:16:33
  of the Trade Commission needs to be the one to unanimously
• 1:16:37
  fucking decide. Well, yeah, well it meanwhile to
• 1:16:44
  show that you're not violating this.
• 1:16:46
  Yeah we need to look at everything.
• 1:16:49
  You ever Post online and also they even tried an amendment for
• 1:16:54
  it for real ID for the internet. So no more anonymity which is
• 1:16:58
  the most by the way. Most unconstitutional thing.
• 1:17:00
  You can think of Common Sense by Thomas Paine.
• 1:17:05
  Now we know it's Thomas Paine. Now, originally published by
• 1:17:08
  Anonymous sparked the revolution.
• 1:17:11
  That founded, this country was an anonymous treat see on the
• 1:17:18
  monarchy, right? And the reason it was Anonymous
• 1:17:20
  it's is because saying that out loud, the king could have you
• 1:17:24
  beheaded, so it you had to be anonymous.
• 1:17:28
  If you have, you know, this goes back to hold the whole right to
• 1:17:31
  offend thing. I'm glad that people have been
• 1:17:32
  sharing around my old video of that, because the speech is so
• 1:17:35
  good. We have to have this kind of
• 1:17:39
  speech that offends and up. Ends the Orthodoxy because
• 1:17:43
  that's how we move forward. Yeah, if you censor unpopular
• 1:17:48
  speech, that's just tyranny. That's what it is.
• 1:17:52
  If you censor your people that speak out against you because
• 1:17:55
  though their offensive to the tradition in the status quo,
• 1:17:58
  this is why I don't want to kill commies, you know?
• 1:18:00
  Just for being commies. I'd rather argue against commies
• 1:18:04
  right. The problem is is that commies
• 1:18:06
  take it to the streets. Commies take it to a physical
• 1:18:08
  level is so unfortunately. A lot of times you only way to
• 1:18:12
  deal with communist, you know, regimes or like, you know,
• 1:18:16
  extremist groups is through violence, unfortunately, because
• 1:18:19
  they're violent, but ideally, I don't give a fuck if you want to
• 1:18:23
  talk about the Communist Manifesto, right?
• 1:18:26
  Because you know I don't think that's going to move us forward
• 1:18:30
  but cutting you off. I'm probably going to cut off
• 1:18:33
  ten other people that might move us forward, right?
• 1:18:36
  It's just You have to be able to talk about this shit and that's
• 1:18:40
  why the first amendment is so goddamn important.
• 1:18:42
  It wasn't there to protect popular speech.
• 1:18:44
  You don't have to protect popular speech, people do that
• 1:18:47
  organically, you have to protect unpopular speech.
• 1:18:51
  And yes, that includes hate speech.
• 1:18:53
  Unfortunately, whether you like it or not, well, one has like
• 1:18:59
  this goes back to the whole thing with like, with AI and
• 1:19:02
  why, you know, like You know, and I was thinking at this Max
• 1:19:08
  because like originally I was on like Elon Musk side of
• 1:19:12
  Regulation. But then I went back to like our
• 1:19:15
  podcast, what you said about, why it should, why shouldn't it
• 1:19:19
  be regulated? The argument for them basically
• 1:19:23
  for congress, why Congress wants to regulate it is basically for
• 1:19:28
  the well, it might potentially say bad words and offend someone
• 1:19:34
  which is which is Is the were again Boomers.
• 1:19:38
  Don't understand how is how this works.
• 1:19:42
  So and what the potential to Ilan was talking about there is
• 1:19:48
  real the potential for it to be used misused for propaganda.
• 1:19:52
  Which is why it should just be neutral if it is neutral and we
• 1:19:56
  can use it for propaganda. They can use it for propaganda.
• 1:19:59
  Everybody can use it for propaganda, then it sits on
• 1:20:02
  equal footing. Unfortunately, the other thing
• 1:20:04
  is Is the problem you face with regulation just period, right?
• 1:20:09
  Any regulation, the people who are lobbying for it, have a
• 1:20:13
  vested interest in it. Elon Musk doesn't need to break
• 1:20:17
  into the AI business. So it's real easy for him to
• 1:20:21
  say, oh, we should put up all these regulations.
• 1:20:23
  But what have you had a really? Really great day.
• 1:20:26
  I start up thing and now all these regulations have put, such
• 1:20:30
  an undue financial burden, on the things that you need to do,
• 1:20:35
  You're cut out of the market. That's why they fucking do it.
• 1:20:38
  Yeah, that. Yeah.
• 1:20:39
  And that and that, that was literally the yarn I heard from
• 1:20:43
  David Sachs yesterday, as to why regulating AI is a bad idea.
• 1:20:48
  Because, right, open a, I open a.i. the Konya.
• 1:20:54
  The owns Chad DP G PT. They're saying regulate us, but
• 1:20:59
  the reason why they're saying regulate us is, so they said
• 1:21:02
  that they in Microsoft and Google and a Apple can all build
• 1:21:06
  this. Like, what ammo around?
• 1:21:09
  I took they can have all the licenses.
• 1:21:14
  None of these other startups can, well, and we've seen this
• 1:21:18
  in the tech field before. That's how I know it's not a
• 1:21:21
  theory. It's a fact, it's called
• 1:21:23
  Comcast. Everybody heard a Comcast as the
• 1:21:26
  good man, Trump says con cast. What do they do?
• 1:21:31
  What did they do? They regulated the cable
• 1:21:34
  industry over years and years. They lobbied for all these
• 1:21:36
  regulations surrounding wires. Ownership of the wires, laying
• 1:21:41
  the wires, things that you Couldn't use their wires without
• 1:21:45
  a deal that with them and the FTC.
• 1:21:48
  So that's why. And then some municipalities
• 1:21:52
  basically just said, fuck that. And they took the fucking wires
• 1:21:56
  for the town or whatever. And so that's why you have like
• 1:21:58
  local IPS and isps and shit. But generally speaking Comcast,
• 1:22:05
  the only people who can create an alternative to Comcast in
• 1:22:09
  most places is the local municipality, because it's a
• 1:22:12
  government. But if you're a small company
• 1:22:14
  and you wanted to start up a cable or Internet, providing
• 1:22:18
  company. Comcast is regulated.
• 1:22:21
  You out of the market. You need you needed like a 500
• 1:22:23
  million market cap to get in there boy.
• 1:22:25
  And you need to have all their regulations met for your service
• 1:22:30
  and the frequency it travels on and blah blah blah blah blah to
• 1:22:34
  send it over there wires and they own the wires and they can
• 1:22:37
  just say no. And they lobbied for this
• 1:22:40
  situation, the gives them a pseudo Monopoly.
• 1:22:42
  This wasn't something. Thing that organically happened.
• 1:22:45
  This was something. They, they lobbied out all of
• 1:22:48
  the competition and all the smaller cable companies, do and
• 1:22:51
  even some of the larger ones like AT&T, at one point, once
• 1:22:55
  they hit a rough patch, Comcast is like, a-ha, we can buy them
• 1:23:00
  out and then use their lobbyists to do even more.
• 1:23:04
  This is what's going to happen with AI.
• 1:23:06
  If you got, if you push for regulation in AI, what you're
• 1:23:09
  going to get is companies like open a.i., Microsoft Google.
• 1:23:13
  Are going to push the regulations that benefit them
• 1:23:16
  and keep everybody out out of the market because and it's in
• 1:23:20
  their best interest to do so. Why would they want other
• 1:23:24
  competition in the market? It doesn't, it doesn't help them
• 1:23:29
  in the least right now. I mean, I mean, you know, people
• 1:23:34
  of its kind of a meme now, but it's also true that Sam Altman.
• 1:23:40
  Should rename open AI to closed AI because that's exactly I mean
• 1:23:47
  it's not open at all. It used to be but it's not
• 1:23:53
  right. And what you're seeing is the
• 1:23:55
  formation of not a monopoly on AI but a cartel Microsoft and
• 1:24:01
  Google and you know all of these companies don't step on each
• 1:24:07
  other's toes. They step on the little guys
• 1:24:10
  toes, they're all cool with saying.
• 1:24:13
  Okay, you can have your Google barred and will have chat.
• 1:24:16
  GPT, and with, you know, all of these things.
• 1:24:19
  But they they're working together.
• 1:24:21
  They're cooperating to close the market off forever.
• 1:24:23
  It's called a cartel, it's like the oldest economic principle
• 1:24:27
  next, to a monopoly. And yeah, and they express this
• 1:24:31
  cartel in multiple other ways. Of course, Twitter is not kind
• 1:24:34
  of a part of the cartel now person right now, but but, but
• 1:24:38
  they were, but it was for a long time like, you know, and even if
• 1:24:45
  it was I would say it was like the Beating Heart of the cartel
• 1:24:48
  actually, well, so you know as much as people Dislike them and
• 1:24:57
  not like I I wasn't to Mark Zuckerberg last interview on
• 1:25:03
  Rogan because like the creepy robot robot man or not.
• 1:25:10
  II still think it's worthwhile hearing what he has to say and
• 1:25:14
  basically you know before you on body was like yeah I'm not
• 1:25:19
  really I don't even really even see Twitter as like Facebook's
• 1:25:25
  Competitor. Really?
• 1:25:28
  I mean that that was what Zuckerberg said like a year ago.
• 1:25:35
  So yeah. Yeah.
• 1:25:38
  But you know the people pushing for regulation, there's actually
• 1:25:43
  I hate, I hate PC Gamer. They're there they're awful but
• 1:25:49
  there is an interesting title to an article that they put out
• 1:25:52
  today and it kind of speaks to what I'm talking about and it's
• 1:25:56
  one of those points where we can actually find some common ground
• 1:25:59
  with lefties because they kind of see that it's a scam to when
• 1:26:04
  they put out an article like this, AI industry beg someone to
• 1:26:08
  Stop the AI industry before. All human life is extinguished
• 1:26:12
  by the AI industry. Now, They understand that if
• 1:26:17
  it's the AI industry asking for regulations, but maybe it's not
• 1:26:21
  a great thing and the humorous way they phrase it there is two
• 1:26:27
  kind of point to they want regulation but they don't trust
• 1:26:30
  the AI people to do the regulating.
• 1:26:32
  But guess what? PC Gamer, who the fuck do you
• 1:26:35
  think is gonna do the regulating?
• 1:26:38
  Oh the FTC the ftc's going to do it?
• 1:26:41
  Yeah they of course they're gonna do it and they're going to
• 1:26:43
  have a meeting about it. They're going to have one of
• 1:26:46
  those hearings. And on this side they're going
• 1:26:48
  to have all the people from Google.
• 1:26:49
  And on this side they're going to have all the people from
• 1:26:51
  Microsoft and then they maybe they going to have the open a I
• 1:26:54
  fucking CEO come in and testify and they're all going to agree
• 1:26:58
  on what the regulations should be.
• 1:27:00
  And then the Boomers TC are going to say yeah, I will do all
• 1:27:02
  that. They're not going to come in
• 1:27:04
  with people that oppose regulation, they're not going to
• 1:27:07
  come in with A small start-up guy that has this great AI thing
• 1:27:11
  that he's not broken into the market with yet.
• 1:27:14
  They're going to ask Microsoft and Google and that's it.
• 1:27:19
  Well, and it's funny because that is exactly what happened.
• 1:27:23
  I guess. Sam Altman was, you know, in
• 1:27:27
  Congress? I guess like, two weeks ago,
• 1:27:30
  talking Ai and basically, like from what I heard on the island
• 1:27:35
  podcast, Sam Altman. Basically did just that he was
• 1:27:41
  like, Hey, I don't trust AI. But hey, why don't you like, why
• 1:27:47
  don't you fund a commission? You know, our panel a government
• 1:27:52
  panel and oh, by the way, I'll be like the head, the head
• 1:27:58
  liaison from Saucon Valley, so If you have like you've been
• 1:28:05
  understood economics in regulation over a longer time
• 1:28:09
  scale and I think this is a problem I come across a lot of
• 1:28:12
  younger guys is they don't have the time scale to know this
• 1:28:15
  stuff like in there and they a lot of their experience has been
• 1:28:19
  in this kind of bubble of misinformation that we live in
• 1:28:23
  now. But like, you could see over
• 1:28:26
  time, they did this with the internet, originally in the 90s,
• 1:28:29
  they did this with Telecommunications and the 80s,
• 1:28:34
  right? Breaking up Ma Bell and all that
• 1:28:35
  stuff. They did it with or the 70s or
• 1:28:38
  whatever, they did it with the the railroad industry, the
• 1:28:42
  railroad industry and the Rockefellers got to regulate
• 1:28:44
  themselves and wouldn't you know it only Rockefellers owned
• 1:28:47
  railroads wow you know things like that.
• 1:28:53
  You know, and we could say a lot about the quote-unquote robber
• 1:28:57
  barons, I would defend them in a lot of ways to, but in terms of
• 1:29:00
  Regulation, look, if you're a business owner like if I if I
• 1:29:04
  run Comcast, it is in my shareholders best interest for
• 1:29:09
  me to do this cartel bit and get the government to regulate the
• 1:29:12
  little guys out of the market. Because that's going to drive up
• 1:29:15
  my share prices. And so, you can't have these
• 1:29:18
  companies doing it. You have to have politicians
• 1:29:21
  doing it. The problem is when we say,
• 1:29:23
  Being well. What is lobbying?
• 1:29:26
  Really mean? It's not just going and asking
• 1:29:29
  Congress, okay? Lobbying also means sending them
• 1:29:33
  on vacation, taking them out to dinner, buying champagne, having
• 1:29:39
  a party. Where you invite all the
• 1:29:40
  Senators to bribery is what we're talking about legal
• 1:29:46
  bribery. Yeah, well and well and I was
• 1:29:50
  like I was saying like stem Altman might not ever like run
• 1:29:54
  for political office, but like I said earlier, like he he wants
• 1:29:59
  to be on this, you know, commission, so to speak, which
• 1:30:03
  means that he does have a point of Interest, even if it's just
• 1:30:06
  basically like all business interest.
• 1:30:09
  Well, basically like all these tech people that they do want to
• 1:30:14
  be bureaucrats government, bureaucrats to Without the
• 1:30:18
  election process and having to campaign and whatnot.
• 1:30:23
  So, like in a weird way, they're asking for government jobs even
• 1:30:28
  though they don't, they don't need it.
• 1:30:31
  So, government jobs come in handy but they they don't need
• 1:30:34
  it. But get piles onto the pile of
• 1:30:36
  fucking Coke gold that they got going on, right?
• 1:30:40
  Because and then they use these kind of positions and references
• 1:30:43
  to move up the ladder. I mean, this is how soft power
• 1:30:45
  works. But all I'm saying, is you with
• 1:30:50
  your letting Boomers regulated especially this is what I would
• 1:30:54
  say, if we're going to regulate AI at all, it needs to not be
• 1:30:58
  done by a bunch of Boomers, don't even understand how to use
• 1:31:01
  Facebook. Right.
• 1:31:03
  Right now. And that that was that was
• 1:31:06
  again, that was sacked as other point was like, and this is kind
• 1:31:12
  of the point that I've taken to. Like, I don't, I don't I want AI
• 1:31:17
  to be regulated. Next is I agree with you, why
• 1:31:20
  it's bad, but my feeling is, well, it's going to get it's
• 1:31:24
  probably going to go regulate and anyway, so can we at least
• 1:31:28
  get regulated by someone who understands what AI is and who
• 1:31:32
  isn't still asking, what is a sub stack?
• 1:31:38
  Does it stack upon Fangs and, you know, I was just a
• 1:31:45
  newsletter. Like if you're going to regulate
• 1:31:50
  something at least understand it.
• 1:31:53
  Well, I mean most of these people you see them on Twitter
• 1:31:56
  and it's not that many way right there Boomers and they just have
• 1:31:59
  an assistant, who's a social media person, right?
• 1:32:02
  It does all the I mean the B Administration does this Joe
• 1:32:05
  Biden's? Twitter is not Joe Biden.
• 1:32:09
  Like I think I don't think anybody would dispute that it is
• 1:32:12
  right? Chumps was Trump's.
• 1:32:14
  You could tell yeah, yeah, you could.
• 1:32:18
  Tell what was Trump and then you could tell when it was, you
• 1:32:22
  know, the unofficial or know the the official like the card by
• 1:32:28
  The Encore fo sound and stuff. That was more low-key was
• 1:32:31
  definitely somebody in his is circle but Trump was, you know,
• 1:32:35
  you can tell is he, he did Miss Cafe, you know?
• 1:32:42
  And which could happen to anybody, you know.
• 1:32:46
  All I'm saying is they don't understand, even basic shit,
• 1:32:49
  like Twitter and Facebook, and even YouTube to a large degree.
• 1:32:53
  Like you remember a few years ago, the whole Elsa gate thing
• 1:32:57
  and they had hearings on that, right?
• 1:33:00
  Yeah. Yeah, I do remember that and the
• 1:33:03
  solution that they came up to it was like to basically, you know,
• 1:33:08
  tyrannical, Iron Fist the whole internet because Think of the
• 1:33:14
  children, right? And it was like, well, no, like
• 1:33:17
  here was the real issue with the Elsa gate, like at a very basic
• 1:33:22
  level, is that it was listed under the YouTube kids, which is
• 1:33:26
  a separate app on phones and tablets.
• 1:33:30
  That is specifically supposed to be curated for children and they
• 1:33:36
  were having explicit sexual content, explicit, violent,
• 1:33:39
  content, content of focused on. They'd have hooks to get the
• 1:33:45
  kids in like Spider-Man impregnates, Elsa.
• 1:33:48
  Well, kids are curious about where babies come from, right?
• 1:33:51
  And that's what gets them in the door shots.
• 1:33:55
  They have a lot of videos about shots or toilets or farting,
• 1:33:59
  right? But and then and because they
• 1:34:01
  get clicks that way because little kids little kids and ah
• 1:34:05
  the Joker farted on Spider-Man. Ha ha ha, right?
• 1:34:09
  And they'll watch it five thousand fucking times.
• 1:34:12
  But in in Video 2 is some way more questionable shit than
• 1:34:16
  that. This is all on the fucking
• 1:34:18
  YouTube kids at including graphic violence and sex and
• 1:34:22
  pedophilia. All of this is on the YouTube
• 1:34:25
  kids app. Actually, I would argue that it
• 1:34:28
  was more the wild west than regular YouTube.
• 1:34:31
  Because if we said a cuss word, we're getting demonetized in
• 1:34:34
  these people have billions of years on this disgusting videos
• 1:34:39
  and so the problem was you should not advertise your as
• 1:34:43
  being curated for children. If it's not and it was not
• 1:34:48
  curated, they can argue till they're blue in the face.
• 1:34:52
  That it's too hard to curate that much content.
• 1:34:54
  Then don't do the kids at because I'll tell you right now,
• 1:34:59
  I got one of them in Amazon Fire kids tabs because it has the
• 1:35:03
  exact opposite type of parental control of like most tablets,
• 1:35:08
  right? And Amazon people say a lot of
• 1:35:10
  bad things about Amazon day actually.
• 1:35:13
  Curate their kids content one so far.
• 1:35:16
  I found very little objectionable content
• 1:35:19
  politically, but more than that, there's a whole nother set of
• 1:35:23
  content. That's inappropriate for
• 1:35:25
  children that has nothing to do with politics, that people seem
• 1:35:27
  to forget about also not on the Amazon app, not in any of the
• 1:35:31
  games that it has. Curated, not in any of the TV
• 1:35:35
  shows and cartoons, not in any of the movies, not in any of the
• 1:35:38
  websites that it allows kids to go to everything is curated and
• 1:35:43
  you can set the age range of the kid using the device.
• 1:35:46
  You can set how long the kids going to be able to allow screen
• 1:35:50
  time II. Have it strictly limited same
• 1:35:53
  thing with my Xbox, right? So these this is possible like I
• 1:35:58
  have he's got a kid's account on the Xbox series X.
• 1:36:02
  I have complete control of it. I can open up my phone and in go
• 1:36:06
  to the Xbox Family app. See what he's playing right now.
• 1:36:10
  He's not playing. He's in bed, but what he's
• 1:36:12
  playing. And what he what apps he's
• 1:36:16
  looked at if he's gone to an advertisement, if he tries to
• 1:36:20
  buy anything, it immediately sends an alert to my phone and
• 1:36:23
  ask say, do you want to give him some money to buy this?
• 1:36:26
  And usually, that answer is fucking know, the kids got more
• 1:36:29
  games than God, it's got the game pass and then grandma keeps
• 1:36:33
  buying them. Fucking disc games which I don't
• 1:36:35
  even It drives me nuts because he had he wants to change games
• 1:36:41
  so often it's like, hey Dad, I need your help.
• 1:36:44
  You know, you guys have been in voice with me when he says he
• 1:36:47
  comes down, he's like, Dad. I need your help and I gotta go
• 1:36:49
  run half the time. I'm changing his fucking game
• 1:36:51
  disc regardless. Even if he puts a disc in of a
• 1:36:56
  game that he's not allowed to watch or play, it's just going
• 1:37:00
  to tell him no, and he's going to send an alert to my phone,
• 1:37:04
  right? It's not hard to curate this
• 1:37:06
  content. So looked you know to Circle
• 1:37:09
  back to what the point of this all was YouTube.
• 1:37:11
  Absolutely, could put out a kids app with curated content
• 1:37:15
  instead, they put out a kid zap, full of disgusting to almost
• 1:37:20
  anybody sensibilities. Not just like, oh, left Winger.
• 1:37:24
  Would everybody found it fucking weird and disgusting right?
• 1:37:27
  There was Universal like this is horrific and then the answer to
• 1:37:32
  the fucking was was to create an app, an act of Congress that
• 1:37:37
  would essentially sensor the whole goddamn internet and it's
• 1:37:40
  like but that's not the fucking problem.
• 1:37:42
  Bro. The problem is if you branded
• 1:37:45
  this as a curated children's app it needs ya generated.
• 1:37:52
  And if you're not going to curate it don't fucking do it.
• 1:37:56
  No well yeah right well and then you know trust doesn't have a
• 1:38:00
  dildo shelf, you know what I mean?
• 1:38:03
  You know, walking to Toys R Us and be like, hey where's the
• 1:38:05
  fucking Fleshlight section? Goddamn it shit gets me so mad.
• 1:38:13
  It's so easy. It's so easy for these
• 1:38:15
  companies. Will he create pop parental
• 1:38:18
  controls that work in our effective and the parents happy
• 1:38:22
  with. Now you have to get the parents
• 1:38:24
  to use them for them to be happy with them.
• 1:38:26
  A lot of parents, don't carry any other kids content?
• 1:38:28
  That's fine for them but for anybody who doesn't want their
• 1:38:32
  kid watching Spider-Man impregnate Elsa in the butt.
• 1:38:37
  You don't need to fucking shut. The whole internet down to do
• 1:38:40
  that. You just need to say oh, YouTube
• 1:38:41
  kids, huh? You either need to fucking make
• 1:38:44
  it actually for kids or not have it.
• 1:38:46
  And if you have it and it's not fucking well, it's not for
• 1:38:49
  children, then we can find you easy simple and them.
• 1:38:54
  Well. And then the other problem to
• 1:38:55
  though, was Okay, so that whole thing with YouTube kids was used
• 1:39:02
  to justify a bunch of other hand.
• 1:39:07
  Had nothing to do with it. Literally nothing to do with
• 1:39:12
  Elsa gate at all in all of their like, you know, we also need
• 1:39:15
  real ID for the internet. And we also need fucking let's
• 1:39:20
  bring back fucking sopa and pipa and all this fucking shit.
• 1:39:24
  No, you just need to say, hey if you make a kid zap, it better be
• 1:39:29
  for fucking kids. If it's not for kids, we're
• 1:39:31
  going to drag you in front of the FTC and ask you why that
• 1:39:35
  you're lying to Children. Also don't collect children's
• 1:39:39
  data as such that was real simple.
• 1:39:42
  That's all they had to fucking do to deal with this fucking
• 1:39:45
  problem. Don't collect children stated
• 1:39:46
  like that. That because that was another
• 1:39:48
  part of the problem. They were collecting children's
• 1:39:50
  birth dates. Collecting their names.
• 1:39:53
  Locations, IP addresses things like that.
• 1:39:55
  Of course. Tick Tock still does all that,
• 1:39:58
  by the way. Yeah, so nothing has really
• 1:40:01
  changed, but then also, if you make a kid zap, It should be for
• 1:40:06
  kids and if it's not we're going to find you like 80 million
• 1:40:10
  dollars. Every time we find a violation
• 1:40:12
  that shit ends. Like that, that's a regulation.
• 1:40:15
  That would make sense. Of course that wasn't even in
• 1:40:18
  the any of the proposals. It wasn't even suggested no none
• 1:40:23
  of it. And that's why we need to vote
• 1:40:27
  out Boomers. Yeah, that's you know that.
• 1:40:35
  Well, I can have said it any better myself.
• 1:40:38
  Yeah, I mean in all in all seriousness, like that whole
• 1:40:42
  YouTube kids thing, What specifically to YouTube, right?
• 1:40:48
  It went to a bunch of different stuff on the internet was bad
• 1:40:51
  too, but that whole over action went to channels like mine.
• 1:41:02
  Being justified from for banishment because we, we were
• 1:41:06
  posting questionable content regarding vaccines or January 6,
• 1:41:12
  like II know it's like that's when all that stuff really
• 1:41:15
  started was because of Elsa gay. So yeah.
• 1:41:19
  Well then they really speed. They transferred over to fucking
• 1:41:23
  are misinformation. It's like okay, one, if you
• 1:41:28
  consider misinformation a problem and again, I'm almost
• 1:41:33
  free speech absolutist in most cases but if you want that kind
• 1:41:39
  of stuff to be dealt with, that's a separate issue from
• 1:41:43
  from the YouTube kids app, right?
• 1:41:46
  But they everything together. Oh, misinformation and we need a
• 1:41:51
  Ministry of Truth and which like most 1984 shit you ever heard,
• 1:41:57
  but the Biden Administration decided the 1984 Was a handbook.
• 1:42:02
  And here we are and nothing got a job for real.
• 1:42:06
  Those Elsa videos are still there, by the way, what
• 1:42:10
  happened? Yeah, yeah I know what happened
• 1:42:12
  was is parents stop using the YouTube kids app.
• 1:42:16
  Unfortunately, a lot of parents just let their kids watch
• 1:42:18
  regular YouTube. On their phones and shit.
• 1:42:23
  Well, I mean completely unknown supervised, right?
• 1:42:28
  Yeah. And that's the real problem.
• 1:42:30
  You know we don't allow my son. YouTube at all like he doesn't
• 1:42:34
  do YouTube. He's seven like no way.
• 1:42:38
  I know people that have three year olds and they sit them in
• 1:42:40
  front of a tablet all day. Watching goddamn, Coco melon and
• 1:42:43
  shit. Yeah, yeah yeah.
• 1:42:45
  Come on Mase the problem is is the recommended, right?
• 1:42:48
  The next video, the autoplays that's recommended.
• 1:42:51
  Leads you to the next thing. And the next thing and the next
• 1:42:54
  thing. And next thing, you know, your
• 1:42:56
  kid is watching actual like horrific violence.
• 1:43:03
  I mean it laughs but it's just like, it's so like, it's
• 1:43:09
  pathetic. It's pathetic like contrast that
• 1:43:12
  to my mom who, like, I would watch videos when I was a kid
• 1:43:18
  that were, like, actual video tapes on like, you know, unlike
• 1:43:23
  fire like I'm like fire trucks and like you know, in like even
• 1:43:30
  even that like like she would watch those videos with me to
• 1:43:35
  make sure that they were like, okay and what not like and that
• 1:43:39
  that was back in the 90s when you had to like actually put
• 1:43:42
  like you know, tapes into the actual Well, you had to go, you
• 1:43:48
  had to go to the video store, to get them.
• 1:43:51
  And now look at the video store, there was a section for kids
• 1:43:54
  tapes. In the back room was a section
• 1:43:56
  for fucking pornography. They didn't put the photography
• 1:43:59
  with the fucking kids tapes. That's all this is right.
• 1:44:06
  That's why I use the example of walking in a Toys R Us looking
• 1:44:09
  for the flashlights, right? Because that's what they're
• 1:44:11
  doing. Well, but what I'm saying there
• 1:44:13
  to is like Part of is on YouTube.
• 1:44:17
  Yes. But part of his also on the
• 1:44:19
  parents, you know, because, well, like I said, like my mom
• 1:44:26
  and my dad, like, at least put like effort into, you know, like
• 1:44:34
  what I, you know, watch and I played, I mean, like, now
• 1:44:38
  granted. I mean, like my dad didn't want
• 1:44:40
  me playing Grand Theft Auto and I, you know, I got around that
• 1:44:45
  played anyway. Hey look, kids are gonna get
• 1:44:47
  into stuff that you would not like them.
• 1:44:49
  To the problem is is is how easy it is to do if you're not paying
• 1:44:55
  attention. I am.
• 1:44:57
  Oh yeah, years and years ago, I did a podcast with a good good
• 1:45:01
  longtime friend of mine, Augustus Invictus and he's got
• 1:45:05
  like 11 kids or something like that.
• 1:45:07
  And one of the things we talked about which made that interview
• 1:45:11
  really special, to me, it's one of my favorites of all time that
• 1:45:15
  I've done. We talked about this, there is
• 1:45:18
  nobody to teach us just like we talking about Boomers regulating
• 1:45:22
  things. We are the first generations of
• 1:45:24
  parents in the digital age and there is no guide book.
• 1:45:29
  There's no guide post on how you deal with it and a lot of people
• 1:45:33
  just don't and they don't think about it and they give their
• 1:45:36
  kids a tablet or a phone with unfettered access to the
• 1:45:39
  internet that is their fault. However, when it's well, when
• 1:45:43
  it's the YouTube kids app, You know?
• 1:45:46
  Yeah, the future that's YouTube's fault.
• 1:45:48
  They need to curate that. Because what they're saying to
• 1:45:50
  parents is you don't got to worry, we got this.
• 1:45:54
  We curated this already for you and they didn't, they're lying.
• 1:46:00
  well, it's that but also like Like how like what I've noticed
• 1:46:08
  is this new this new generation of parents.
• 1:46:14
  They seem to and again, not every parent, but I've noticed
• 1:46:19
  that like, they have this weird like cognitive dissonance where
• 1:46:24
  it's like. Okay, Mom.
• 1:46:27
  I know how to use a smartphone effectively, and I know how to
• 1:46:31
  use a tablet effectively there. For my kids will know how to use
• 1:46:37
  it, responsibly coming out of the womb.
• 1:46:43
  That's not a process though. You got the thought process, you
• 1:46:47
  got you've identified the problem.
• 1:46:49
  But here's the thought process, the thought process is if I put
• 1:46:53
  them in front of the goddamn tablet, they shut the fuck up.
• 1:46:58
  That's the thought process. It's a digital babysitter for a
• 1:47:02
  lot of people. And the problem is, is tablets
• 1:47:07
  are actually like more addictive to Children than television.
• 1:47:12
  Oh yeah, we by the nature of it being involved in stuff and and
• 1:47:17
  some kids obviously won't use it.
• 1:47:19
  That's why I say we have a limit on screen time here, right?
• 1:47:23
  For the boy, and we go out and play.
• 1:47:25
  And we do normal stuff, but he's allowed some screen time.
• 1:47:30
  A lot of parents chart, its thoughtful about this as I am.
• 1:47:33
  And I understand that but often tell the problem that you're
• 1:47:37
  identifying is just them being lazy parents and they're like,
• 1:47:41
  well, Right? If I didn't give him the tablet
• 1:47:44
  with the Sonic, the Hedgehog movie, what would he be doing?
• 1:47:47
  Running around throwing things being being rambunctious little
• 1:47:52
  kid because little kids are rambunctious, all of them across
• 1:47:55
  the board, some are more calm than others, some are not calm
• 1:47:59
  but little kids will run around get into shit.
• 1:48:02
  Yell scream cry you know shit they're fucking pants, all of
• 1:48:08
  that stuff happens. That's real life.
• 1:48:10
  Kids R kids man. It's both like a pain in the ass
• 1:48:13
  in an absolute. The greatest joy I've ever had.
• 1:48:16
  In my life, it is a lot easier to sit the kid in front of a
• 1:48:20
  fucking tablet. It's, I do have to go the extra
• 1:48:24
  steps to not just do that eight you know eight to 12 hours a day
• 1:48:29
  when he's at home from school. He's just playing with the
• 1:48:31
  fucking tablet. Well one if he does that, he's
• 1:48:34
  going to get fat too. He's actually not that
• 1:48:36
  interested like he plays his tablet, he loves his tablet, he
• 1:48:40
  plays some games on it. He watches like Marvel, fucking
• 1:48:43
  Lego stuff, or whatever, and then he wants to go down to the
• 1:48:46
  park and play with the other kids.
• 1:48:48
  You know what? I need a balla.
• 1:48:50
  I like I don't want to ask too much like personal information
• 1:48:55
  but if if I were to bet you anything I bet your son has a
• 1:49:00
  pretty fantastic imagination. Yeah, very much so and CI he
• 1:49:06
  loves telling stories his new game.
• 1:49:09
  When he meets other kids like at the park is that there's a snake
• 1:49:13
  flying snake, chasing them and at first, they'll be like, what
• 1:49:16
  are you talking about? And he's just so insistent that
• 1:49:19
  within five minutes, they're all running away from the Can snake.
• 1:49:23
  Yeah, I mean I I mean I was I was the same way with my
• 1:49:28
  friends. We would all play like you know
• 1:49:30
  super sometimes we would like play Call of Duty or something.
• 1:49:35
  Right on the, you know, on the Xbox or Playstation or what have
• 1:49:39
  you and then we would like go and play like you know, Call of
• 1:49:45
  Duty and real. You know, I side with like, you
• 1:49:50
  know, water guns or hell even sticks when I, when I, when I
• 1:49:55
  refer to my childhood in the games that we play, NES is more.
• 1:50:00
  What comes to mind? But yeah, right, we play some of
• 1:50:03
  those games on NES and but also like, we all were outside all
• 1:50:08
  the fucking time. The only time, we touched our
• 1:50:10
  any yeses was after Sundown. And after dinner, when we had to
• 1:50:15
  go inside. Anyway, like Like I lived
• 1:50:18
  outside. It's a kid.
• 1:50:19
  Basically, our parents never knew where we were until we
• 1:50:22
  fucking came in at night and you can't really do that nowadays,
• 1:50:27
  if you let your kid run free like that, somebody will call
• 1:50:29
  Child Services on you because people are Karen's and
• 1:50:32
  busybodies and yeah, whatever. But I take him to the park, you
• 1:50:37
  know? And and when I'm at the part,
• 1:50:40
  you know, the wife's a little more Hands-On, but when I'm at
• 1:50:42
  the park, I'm just going to sit there and watch.
• 1:50:45
  Well, I'm not sure. I mean that that's how Was, you
• 1:50:48
  know, dads. But I mean like, but the other
• 1:50:52
  thing too is in my city that Aaron is not as much as you
• 1:50:56
  think. Like, I am, I do stand out from
• 1:51:00
  a lot of that. That's because they involved a
• 1:51:06
  lot of times, or they're not there at all.
• 1:51:09
  Well, 9i, I know that but also like You don't see a lot of dads
• 1:51:17
  at the park these days. I'm the one.
• 1:51:19
  Yeah. Now, that's or school events,
• 1:51:23
  right? I'm like the one dad at all, the
• 1:51:25
  school events, but to be fair on that respect there during the
• 1:51:30
  day and I work from home. So, I can swing it.
• 1:51:34
  I work for myself, I work from home, I make my own hours.
• 1:51:37
  I can go down. He had like a I think I
• 1:51:39
  mentioned it last week a fundraiser where they run to
• 1:51:42
  raise money for the school or whatever and I went down there
• 1:51:44
  cheering him on not every dad can go at 1 p.m. in the
• 1:51:48
  afternoon to the school. Totally understand that.
• 1:51:50
  But they don't go to the PTO meetings.
• 1:51:52
  They don't go to the nighttime events.
• 1:51:55
  You don't see a lot of dads and and again that's anecdotal from
• 1:51:59
  my experience, but it does it is right?
• 1:52:03
  Thing that I see. No, yeah.
• 1:52:05
  And I don't, I don't think you're on my point.
• 1:52:08
  Overall, those is in general, it seems like both you and your
• 1:52:13
  wife are very involved in your son's life and, and all these
• 1:52:19
  parents who are just letting the tablet and then the school
• 1:52:24
  system raised our kids, they're not developed.
• 1:52:28
  Now, I could be looking at this from a really cynical like
• 1:52:31
  viewpoint But they're just their wedding, the technology raise
• 1:52:36
  their kids and they're not developing memories of their
• 1:52:40
  it's not even cynical. It's, I did a video, you know,
• 1:52:44
  the thing is whenever I do important videos, nobody watches
• 1:52:48
  them but I did a video on the effect of specifically.
• 1:52:52
  It was about Tick-Tock but social media in General, on the
• 1:52:57
  memory in children and it objectively scrolling tick-tock.
• 1:53:02
  Reduces thirteen-year-olds, attention spans.
• 1:53:08
  So these things are causing harm.
• 1:53:12
  Yeah, that doesn't surprise me at all. yeah, I mean You know, I
• 1:53:22
  get like, it's really it really does Boggle.
• 1:53:29
  My mind to think, how far we've come technologically in such a
• 1:53:34
  short time because I just graduated high school, like, 10
• 1:53:39
  years ago, I just got a notification on Facebook for my
• 1:53:44
  high school classes, 10-year reunions like the other day or
• 1:53:48
  something. Right?
• 1:53:49
  When that when I Was in high school.
• 1:53:53
  All, we have all we had at the time was Facebook and Twitter
• 1:54:00
  and Instagram had just come out, but wasn't we had we had
• 1:54:06
  geocities and Napster when I was in high school.
• 1:54:11
  Yeah, and notice, those aren't really social media, right?
• 1:54:15
  Social media is a very New Concept and this is what I was
• 1:54:18
  getting at with the Augustus Invictus thing.
• 1:54:20
  There's no older generation to teach us how to handle this, and
• 1:54:23
  that's why a lot of these parents.
• 1:54:25
  Don't they UND a found out that it's basically a cheat code to
• 1:54:30
  stick a tablet in your kid's hand and they'll sit down and
• 1:54:33
  shut up and be good. And they don't think about the
• 1:54:36
  long-term ramifications of this. Yeah.
• 1:54:40
  Well like there's a reason that screen time is constantly talked
• 1:54:45
  about word is because they've done studies on this and too
• 1:54:47
  much screen time. Is bad for children.
• 1:54:50
  P, Period. Yeah, well I like the fact
• 1:54:53
  they're doing studies on like Tick-Tock specifically like in
• 1:54:57
  general is amazing to me because like Tick-Tock is like new like
• 1:55:03
  but Randy was right. But this it's Unique in that
• 1:55:07
  it's the short form video content and you can just flick
• 1:55:10
  it up. Flick it up, flick it like
• 1:55:11
  Twitter. But instead of words it's just
• 1:55:14
  video and that's does if it doesn't grab my attention in
• 1:55:18
  three seconds, I'm skipping it that act over time.
• 1:55:22
  Reduces their fucking attention span.
• 1:55:24
  It's literally causing add That's what it is.
• 1:55:30
  It's causing add and children that don't otherwise have it.
• 1:55:33
  Now, you could argue that maybe some of the fucking television
• 1:55:36
  programming and video games in our upbringing had the same
• 1:55:39
  effect but much less pronounced than this and that would vote
• 1:55:44
  for an uptick in a TD cases in the 90s and 2000's.
• 1:55:47
  Sure. But this is like the the graph
• 1:55:51
  goes like this up up up. Through the roof.
• 1:55:56
  Yeah, well, I mean, so it's funny that you mention that with
• 1:56:00
  TV and whatnot because like, I have two younger siblings who
• 1:56:06
  are way younger than that. I am.
• 1:56:10
  And I would, I remember a few years ago when I went back to
• 1:56:13
  card I was watching like I was watching you know,
• 1:56:19
  saturday-morning cartoons with them and I mean I was playing
• 1:56:23
  with life with my phone mostly but you know I would like I
• 1:56:27
  could hear what was on the cartoon and a lot and a lot of
• 1:56:32
  the vegetables or the cartoons didn't even have like a coherent
• 1:56:37
  plot Point like the cartoons that were on when even I was a
• 1:56:41
  kid like Bad plot that you like at least like had to kind of
• 1:56:47
  fall in, like, pay attention to but like now, cartoons just
• 1:56:54
  don't even do that. It's just well, we found a, they
• 1:56:59
  found a link with the the attention span in channel.
• 1:57:03
  Surfing in the 90s, there's a lot of studies about that and
• 1:57:06
  then think about Tick-Tock is just an accelerated version of
• 1:57:09
  that. The even if you find the show,
• 1:57:12
  you're looking for, as you would when you're channel surfing,
• 1:57:15
  right? You're going to channels are
• 1:57:15
  channel surfing and you find something.
• 1:57:17
  You're going to stay there for a while.
• 1:57:20
  Tick-Tock I think is like 2 minutes maximum.
• 1:57:23
  So you're going to be back on the channel surf, almost
• 1:57:26
  immediately there, there's a lot of reasons why Tick Tock is
• 1:57:29
  worse. But the, the graph goes from
• 1:57:32
  like a slightly inclined, Flatline to straight up in terms
• 1:57:38
  of the amount of children with ADHD, add and autistic, Spectrum
• 1:57:43
  disorders, and they're having a relationship with all of this
• 1:57:47
  and Technology. And I mean societally, there's a
• 1:57:53
  lot of suggestions I could make but practically and the only
• 1:57:57
  real thing, you know, I can say or do is what I do is just be
• 1:58:03
  really, really involved. That's what you as a parent can
• 1:58:06
  do but asking for this shit to change, I don't know how you
• 1:58:10
  can't make people be better parents, you know what I mean?
• 1:58:15
  I guess education. But like everything about That
• 1:58:19
  is, is all this like, you know, Health in Corporal education,
• 1:58:23
  that they do people. It's always like, it's corpo
• 1:58:26
  right? So you're going to have some
• 1:58:27
  nurse saying, okay, parents well, no screen time at 9 p.m.
• 1:58:31
  and be. These people aren't going to
• 1:58:32
  fucking listen, you know it's like the lady tells lecture and
• 1:58:37
  you not to smoke when you're in high school, right?
• 1:58:40
  Like of course yeah. Everything they're saying is
• 1:58:42
  true. You know what I mean?
• 1:58:45
  But you're still going to light up afterwards like, well, what
• 1:58:50
  it's like it seems to be that like a lot of the the, I mean,
• 1:58:57
  the other thing I can can't stand is Is like, and I'm not
• 1:59:05
  even a parent, but the one thing that like drives, you crazy is
• 1:59:09
  like, when I'll be like out in public and I'll see you like a,
• 1:59:13
  I'll see you like a parent, right?
• 1:59:15
  But they're trying to be like they're trying to be BFFs with
• 1:59:19
  their kids. Instead of trying to be like
• 1:59:23
  parents, Well, I guess to some degree, you know, I'm free.
• 1:59:29
  I'm friends with my son, but I see what you mean.
• 1:59:32
  Well, sometimes they give them whatever they want, and yeah,
• 1:59:36
  you're not talking about that. You're talking about spoiled
• 1:59:38
  brats, really? Yeah, I'm not.
• 1:59:42
  I'm a but you're not a parent so you don't want to say it like
• 1:59:45
  that, but I'll say it for you. You're talking about parents
• 1:59:48
  that raised their kids to be annoying spoiled brats.
• 1:59:51
  And when they instead when they're supposed to say, no they
• 1:59:55
  say, would you please just consider me baby?
• 1:59:59
  Call me as yes. That is.
• 2:00:01
  That is exactly. That is exactly what I That is
• 2:00:07
  that, that is exactly what I mean.
• 2:00:10
  And like, I'm not old school. We don't believe in hitting our
• 2:00:12
  kid right from under any scenario.
• 2:00:15
  However, however, if he hears me, do the dad voice, he cries
• 2:00:19
  like I hit him but I do the dad voice.
• 2:00:24
  He knows he's fucked, but you're awesome.
• 2:00:27
  Not like, you're honest and not going up to your son and saying
• 2:00:32
  and my God, I can't blame them out.
• 2:00:35
  I'm about To repeat this. But I overheard a guy say to his
• 2:00:41
  son, I just want to be your friend, bro.
• 2:00:45
  And it's like, It's like fuck off with.
• 2:00:49
  Like I get it, you want to be friendly with your kid but like
• 2:00:52
  that's not the parenting books, tell you to do dr.
• 2:00:55
  Spock ruin, parenting for many generations to come.
• 2:01:02
  No, there's a mentality of like, you should and it's not dr.
• 2:01:07
  Spock like from Star Trek. It's dr.
• 2:01:09
  Spock the guy that wrote the parenting guide or Road?
• 2:01:12
  Oh, I know, I know exactly who you are.
• 2:01:16
  Yeah. So, he his thing was that you
• 2:01:20
  should just let your child creatively Express themself in
• 2:01:23
  whatever manner that they see fit and never ever intervene.
• 2:01:27
  Yeah, fuck you motherfucker. Fuck you.
• 2:01:30
  If I if my kid was like, hitting a girl, that ain't creative
• 2:01:33
  expressing himself, he's about to get himself in some deep
• 2:01:36
  shit. You know, there are things
• 2:01:39
  there. There is lat.
• 2:01:40
  Look. On the other hand, sometimes my
• 2:01:44
  wife is like, oh my God, stop that.
• 2:01:46
  And I'm like, nah, let him. You know what actually my wife
• 2:01:51
  gets pissed at me because a lot of times when we're out with the
• 2:01:54
  kid. I do like a bit in my bit, is
• 2:01:59
  the fun police. And so she'll be like, hey,
• 2:02:03
  stop, and I'll be like, yeah, we got our 182 out here, child
• 2:02:07
  having fun. Yeah, she gets super mad at me
• 2:02:11
  about that but I know, I'm not even sure that's a bit.
• 2:02:16
  I'm not even sure that to bed anymore.
• 2:02:18
  See, To me, that just seems like your why you should be saying.
• 2:02:24
  Well, son. Here's what life will be like in
• 2:02:26
  the future. If you know, if the woke people
• 2:02:32
  that that dad, you know, is on the internet.
• 2:02:36
  With this is what I have. Well, yeah, it's just that.
• 2:02:41
  She's like, he's climbing to thing, right?
• 2:02:45
  And she's worried, he's gonna fall off and hurt himself and
• 2:02:47
  I'm like, yeah. Yeah, maybe I don't know.
• 2:02:50
  It'll probably be fine if he does though.
• 2:02:52
  He's a kid. He's a little boy.
• 2:02:54
  You got to let him be a little bit from this fucking legs and
• 2:02:58
  have some fun. That's also her maternal
• 2:03:02
  Instinct, I guess. Yes, Mom should be like that.
• 2:03:10
  she really wanted to say something I think, oh, she's
• 2:03:14
  just saying that this has been a great episode because we haven't
• 2:03:18
  really talked about politics very much True.
• 2:03:22
  Yeah, no. That's that's I mean, so that's
• 2:03:25
  the other thing is, you know, we'll talk we'll talk politics
• 2:03:31
  when we need, you know, when there's something relevant.
• 2:03:34
  But since we're getting it in Mike Pence is gonna announce for
• 2:03:40
  2024 Good luck. Mike, you'll need it.
• 2:03:47
  None of these people have any sort of like, Charisma or
• 2:03:51
  political sense. It's actually a astonishing.
• 2:03:53
  I mean, these people talk like oh we'll get rid of trump and
• 2:03:57
  then and then and then what, and then, what we're going to run
• 2:04:00
  another McCain, we're going to run another Mit, Romney kind of
• 2:04:05
  candidate. I mean, I mean, this, this idea
• 2:04:09
  that you can moderate on like, I'm sure is my five other
• 2:04:15
  bushes. We could have run.
• 2:04:17
  Yeah. Like this idea that you can
• 2:04:18
  moderate on Charisma and policy and everything you fucking
• 2:04:24
  believe in other than, like war and this is somehow a cohesive
• 2:04:29
  winning strategy, seems absurd, and it's, and it's outer party,
• 2:04:35
  loser nonsense. And that's, that's really what
• 2:04:38
  we're up against in the GOP, is a bunch of people who are
• 2:04:42
  literally come trouble with being a member of the outer
• 2:04:45
  party. If they had any political
• 2:04:47
  Instinct, if they had any Charisma, they'd be a Democrat.
• 2:04:52
  True. White like why would you be a
• 2:04:56
  Liz Cheney? Why would you be a Mitt Romney
• 2:04:59
  was like at that point YB YB a fucking libel if you had
• 2:05:04
  conservative, if you had Charisma and sense right now and
• 2:05:08
  and didn't care about the politics at all which a lot of
• 2:05:11
  them seem that's what you're describing right?
• 2:05:13
  You would be the outsider Dem. Yes you would be what's-her-face
• 2:05:18
  in Arizona there that they also gabbard the Tulsi.
• 2:05:22
  Yeah, yeah, exactly. Or you could Carrie likes, not
• 2:05:29
  Democrat. Oh no, I meant Cinema kyrsten
• 2:05:34
  Sinema, right? Kristen, so yeah, she portrays
• 2:05:37
  herself as The Outsider, damn, now nobody believes that, but
• 2:05:40
  like, the point being is she got it.
• 2:05:44
  She's got political Savvy, she's got some Charisma, and she's an
• 2:05:48
  outsider candidate at RFK Juniors.
• 2:05:51
  Another good example, Outsider candidate.
• 2:05:53
  Yeah, if you If you wear that, that that's the spot to be where
• 2:05:57
  you're going to get the most like clout I guess.
• 2:06:02
  Why would you want to be a member of the outer party?
• 2:06:04
  Like a why, why would you want to do that?
• 2:06:07
  Why would you want to be the absolute has the Libertarians.
• 2:06:12
  I mean the Libertarians at least like egg least, they can like
• 2:06:17
  put on a leather jacket and pretend to be like the, the
• 2:06:21
  noble losers, right? Yeah.
• 2:06:24
  Like at least they can. Well, can you make virtue
• 2:06:27
  signal? They want to be big fish in the
• 2:06:29
  small pond. You, you're talking about people
• 2:06:32
  that want to be big fishes in a big pond.
• 2:06:34
  But it's, yeah, it's it's the polluted one.
• 2:06:38
  Yeah. Why?
• 2:06:40
  Why be the Republican that like goes to the BLM rally and loses
• 2:06:46
  the to Obama? And does the things like, why be
• 2:06:49
  part of the establishment and not be really part of the
• 2:06:53
  Element to its full extent. It just it's cringe, it's lame.
• 2:06:57
  It doesn't make any sense and I fear people trying to bring us
• 2:07:03
  back to that and I'm just holy uninterested in it.
• 2:07:07
  I mean no I just created an ad for Mike Pence and it's just
• 2:07:13
  going to quote shmuly and it's going to be like it's cringe and
• 2:07:16
  it's lame. 20:24 it's cringing, it's lame.
• 2:07:23
  And and so slowly to your point earlier, like about, we didn't
• 2:07:27
  bring it politics. Like so here's the thing with
• 2:07:31
  what that right is like, I've done the type of show before
• 2:07:37
  where I cover every my new thing in politics like that.
• 2:07:42
  No one cares about, like, I've done that before.
• 2:07:45
  But like, my whole thing is, like, the day-to-day, like,
• 2:07:51
  political nerd stuff like, yeah, it's entertaining for us to talk
• 2:07:55
  about, like, in the line or no one cares that like obviously,
• 2:07:59
  like, there were things like, you know, like Rhino rod. or can
• 2:08:05
  connection issues Ron like getting up like that was a relic
• 2:08:10
  that was a real I guess what I'm saying is like Politics, like, I
• 2:08:16
  guess I if I'm not interested in it, if it's not relevant to me,
• 2:08:20
  then why would it be wrong relevant to those to the
• 2:08:24
  audience? Whereas, like a, I like, is so
• 2:08:28
  groundbreaking right now. No, I agree with the the course
• 2:08:33
  of the show. I, I guess my point was
• 2:08:36
  basically a deposit that question, why?
• 2:08:39
  If you're a Machiavelli and grifter, you want to be part of
• 2:08:43
  the establishment, all obvious. That's why you oppose the Trump
• 2:08:46
  people, right? Like these people.
• 2:08:48
  Why do they exist? What's in it for them?
• 2:08:52
  Why, why are they so pathetic and lame and stupid?
• 2:08:57
  I can, I can tell I can here's my theory.
• 2:09:01
  At least my theory is, is that they is that they weren't power
• 2:09:06
  for so long. And when Trump got into office,
• 2:09:12
  they got kicked out of, you know, the party change.
• 2:09:17
  But now they were, but they were the loser party then to.
• 2:09:20
  Yeah, that's my point. We sense Bush, right?
• 2:09:25
  They were they were, but they were, you're not wrong and
• 2:09:30
  either you are wrong. But from my perspective, they
• 2:09:34
  didn't care because they were in charge of the party and they
• 2:09:36
  could do, they could do it. Ever the fuck they wanted and
• 2:09:40
  they were Matt, they were mad when trumped on top is because
• 2:09:44
  it was no longer there party. It was our, I guess that sort of
• 2:09:51
  answers it. I mean, a lot of these people
• 2:09:52
  probably got in there when there was more of a like, it wasn't.
• 2:10:01
  So we weren't basically like a one-party state, right?
• 2:10:04
  And. And now, the way I have an
• 2:10:06
  analogy as to why the Why would you want to be the Perpetual
• 2:10:11
  loser right? The same reason that there's
• 2:10:13
  guys that made me not so much now but Sam will get this
• 2:10:17
  because it's because wrestling right there are guys that their
• 2:10:20
  whole career was built upon being a jobber and losing two
• 2:10:25
  other guys, right? And it's because it's consistent
• 2:10:29
  work, it's mostly safe. You got your Niche, you're here,
• 2:10:33
  you can come out and even those guys would have gimmicks, right?
• 2:10:37
  Like the Brooklyn Brawler. Laura and Barry Horowitz to Pat
• 2:10:40
  himself on the back and shit like that gilberg, if everybody
• 2:10:44
  remembers that one like the these guys existed to put the
• 2:10:48
  other guys over, that's what Republican establishment was
• 2:10:51
  doing. They exist yet fucking Democrats
• 2:10:54
  over. Yeah, they're well they're
• 2:10:56
  they're just so used to losing like that's what they're most
• 2:10:59
  comfortable with I guess. Well, and it pays well, like
• 2:11:03
  those jobbers could pay their health insurance, they put food
• 2:11:06
  on the table for the kids. They weren't making Hulk.
• 2:11:08
  And money, right? But they were fucking providing
• 2:11:11
  for their family. That's why they're going to stay
• 2:11:13
  there. And in this case, it's more than
• 2:11:15
  that because they're getting like stock options and free
• 2:11:18
  fucking trips to Aruba and all this other fucking shit it
• 2:11:22
  there. There's fringe benefits to being
• 2:11:24
  a jobber and let's just face it. Like the neocon establishment
• 2:11:28
  had become jobbers and their job Erza.
• 2:11:30
  And DeSantis wants to be the head job or he wants to be the
• 2:11:33
  head of the Jo B Squad and go over there and take the L for
• 2:11:37
  Trump. Actually what I think he's
• 2:11:39
  doing, I think he's banking on the doj taking Trump out which I
• 2:11:45
  wouldn't look if there's one guy not to bet against it's the guy
• 2:11:51
  that wrote The Art of the comeback.
• 2:11:54
  Just saying well, well, holy uninterested in having some cope
• 2:12:01
  politics where I like I try to justify how like well Jeb Bush
• 2:12:06
  would be much better than Joe Biden because you know, Jeb will
• 2:12:11
  reduce taxes by 1% and Joe wants to increase the IRS funding by
• 2:12:19
  80 billion dollars but Jeb, you know, he's so easy.
• 2:12:23
  Sensible 72 bits. Well boys well done you know
• 2:12:30
  Obama wants all the kids sorry. Biden wants all the kids to be
• 2:12:35
  trans and Jeb would put a cap on that, you know.
• 2:12:39
  Yeah, only 40% sensible cab, you know, it's just holy
• 2:12:46
  uninterested and interesting and it makes me consider that when
• 2:12:51
  you're in that position, Why, why even bother?
• 2:12:57
  And that's, I guess that's a concept that I think a lot in
• 2:13:02
  politics. There's certain situations,
• 2:13:07
  where in no action is better than action actually.
• 2:13:11
  Yeah. Yeah, I know I but then again it
• 2:13:16
  goes what it goes. Like both.
• 2:13:19
  It does, the wine bottle, the wine bother approach is very
• 2:13:23
  interesting there, which mode because again like you've got
• 2:13:27
  you've got the GOP, you know like politicians who are so
• 2:13:30
  boring and uninteresting that they don't motivate their base
• 2:13:34
  to do anything. Yeah.
• 2:13:36
  And the Jo be politicians. Or or the J EB X exclamation
• 2:13:45
  mark ha ha ha. But there are certain situations
• 2:13:53
  where in like the position that the left takes only makes sense.
• 2:14:00
  With a in context of the Republican position and so I
• 2:14:07
  could foresee their being certain examples.
• 2:14:09
  Wherein, it's literally just better to not.
• 2:14:15
  Oh yeah, for sure because they develop I mean, it's funny like
• 2:14:20
  leftists like to call us reactionaries but like, what
• 2:14:25
  seems to drive a lot of especially the radical left, is
• 2:14:29
  this like reaction to not just reality but like the 1950s view
• 2:14:36
  of society that they've already killed.
• 2:14:41
  Yeah that yeah they they need you to like come along and
• 2:14:46
  oppose them in order to like give context to their nonsense.
• 2:14:52
  Yeah. Well see a lot of that buttons
• 2:14:55
  is delusion that the 1950s still exists.
• 2:15:01
  And like I think this is kind of the same thing.
• 2:15:05
  You're saying, they want you to believe that I can, I think I
• 2:15:09
  can illustrate it better like the French Revolution is going
• 2:15:13
  right. When the French Revolution was
• 2:15:15
  going, they're like well we're going to get rid of the.
• 2:15:17
  We're going to remake the days of the week.
• 2:15:20
  It's now going to be an even amount of days of the week.
• 2:15:24
  And we're going to get rid of all these old men eventually it
• 2:15:27
  just the stuff makes no sense and it just fails and then
• 2:15:33
  eventually they sort of move on. I think you've seen this in
• 2:15:37
  Communist States right there. Certain things like oh yeah,
• 2:15:40
  definitely. Like we're gonna get rid of the
• 2:15:42
  distinction between men and women or whatever.
• 2:15:45
  But like once the totalizing regime comes they're just like
• 2:15:49
  oh well that doesn't work and then you get some level of like
• 2:15:52
  reform Well and and in fact that push back can I can I can I read
• 2:15:59
  you a little bit of the pushback if you guys like this target has
• 2:16:03
  lost 12 billion dollars in the last week Bud.
• 2:16:06
  Light has lost twenty six billion dollars in the past two
• 2:16:10
  months and coal stock. Dropped six point five percent,
• 2:16:14
  in two days, this is what winning looks like.
• 2:16:19
  I've always said you got to speak with your wallet to these
• 2:16:22
  people and but Problem is is you can't say okay guys let's we're
• 2:16:27
  gonna is the boycott because that doesn't work but what does
• 2:16:32
  work well? People get fed the fuck up.
• 2:16:34
  Yeah. And they do it on their own and
• 2:16:37
  but there and we can't even talk them out of it.
• 2:16:39
  Now, you can't talk the normies into going out and buying Bud
• 2:16:42
  Light. Now, that's not going to happen.
• 2:16:44
  Will you when you combat them? Remember that they're rebelling
• 2:16:48
  against reality, they're rebelling against you, they're
• 2:16:53
  hateful. It's like they're rebelling
• 2:16:54
  against God in many ways. Yeah.
• 2:16:57
  Yeah. And so like their shit's going
• 2:16:59
  to fail and it just brings up an interesting question.
• 2:17:03
  It's like, well, you know what to what role did conservatism
• 2:17:09
  really play in people being fed up with these, like woke
• 2:17:13
  companies, shoving it down, everybody's throat, not not
• 2:17:18
  inaudible, not a whole lot, but the only the only thing I will
• 2:17:24
  say, is that, in CERN kit, is that in some cases?
• 2:17:31
  I've had people go. I've had people say to me.
• 2:17:34
  Oh, wow. This is what Rush Limbaugh was
• 2:17:37
  talking about. All, you know, all all those
• 2:17:41
  years ago, but it's like, but it's like, that's not really a
• 2:17:45
  that's not like a change, right? As much as it is, admitting that
• 2:17:50
  we were right, all along and I'm not and I'm not one of those
• 2:17:53
  types. Of people that has to glow and
• 2:17:55
  so, yeah, I was right. I don't think this is some great
• 2:17:59
  victory of the attentional. Like, Auntie woke media people
• 2:18:05
  which are which I guess I'm one of them if we did play a role in
• 2:18:09
  it it was simply that we basically baited them into
• 2:18:12
  Hazzard. But yeah, two things baited them
• 2:18:16
  into Hazzard. Correct?
• 2:18:17
  But the second one is is our ability to share it.
• 2:18:22
  Finally reached Normie. Wise.
• 2:18:24
  They they saw it but the thing is when you're sharing this
• 2:18:28
  stuff to normies you have to strip up the political fucking
• 2:18:32
  bias on your end or they're not going to watch it in the bud,
• 2:18:35
  light thing. It kind of was that because all
• 2:18:37
  they had to do was watch Dylan. Yet leftist craziness in front
• 2:18:48
  of them. Yeah.
• 2:18:50
  Yeah. And and this, this is, you know,
• 2:18:54
  this is like I'm saying, you know what?
• 2:18:55
  Dow shank down shaping, you know, the guy who came in after
• 2:19:00
  Mao. Yeah, right and he's like hey
• 2:19:05
  actually a lot of that crazy shit.
• 2:19:08
  We're not going to do it anymore, you know?
• 2:19:10
  I mean I'm not going to execute the farmers for Producing excess
• 2:19:15
  to sell down at the river, you know, me like that.
• 2:19:19
  Which is why you get the modern Chinese like capitalist,
• 2:19:22
  communist hybrid state that they've created with the full
• 2:19:25
  authoritarianism. Yeah.
• 2:19:27
  Like at a at a certain point with these kind of things you
• 2:19:31
  end up with a situation like that, right?
• 2:19:34
  You end up with a situation where like the totalizing
• 2:19:37
  ideology Fucking fails. I mean solid with Khrushchev in
• 2:19:43
  the Soviet Union right there? Like hey Stalin went a little
• 2:19:48
  far. We can be cynical because the
• 2:19:54
  reason why Stalin went too far as because he was chopping off
• 2:19:58
  their heads, right? You know what I mean?
• 2:20:02
  But but there's the outcomes. The same.
• 2:20:04
  Yeah. Eventually this stuff just
• 2:20:07
  fucking fails. Well, and the thing is they're
• 2:20:09
  trying to chop off your kids penises, right?
• 2:20:12
  And that's very similar. Like this is why I'll tell you
• 2:20:15
  Norm he's waking up. It's for me it's actually the
• 2:20:20
  first just like big Normie Awakening thing.
• 2:20:22
  I saw among like, parents, the actually talking about having
• 2:20:26
  these conversations, non-politically was the wet ass
• 2:20:31
  pussy song. Yeah, it because because they
• 2:20:37
  were, like, when we were growing up, because most of them are
• 2:20:39
  millennials, right? Well, any oils are like the main
• 2:20:41
  group with children under 10 years old now.
• 2:20:44
  And when we grew up, yeah, there was Dirty music, but they didn't
• 2:20:47
  play it on the radio all the time.
• 2:20:50
  Yeah. Right.
• 2:20:51
  And that to them is like way over the line and made them very
• 2:20:54
  uncomfortable when they had their like three, four, five
• 2:20:57
  year old child twerking to fucking wet ass pussy.
• 2:21:02
  That's so It's true though. It's that was the thing that was
• 2:21:07
  going on. And you know, I talked to quite
• 2:21:09
  a few parents. And the thing is I don't bring
• 2:21:12
  up like all these times I'm saying I talk to normal people
• 2:21:15
  and parents. I don't bring up any of this
• 2:21:17
  shit. Yeah, I'm very quiet actually.
• 2:21:23
  Mia it's it's weird because like when I was when I was younger.
• 2:21:32
  Like, you know 18 to 20, right 1821.
• 2:21:37
  Let's say II was I was the I will admit I was the annoying
• 2:21:42
  political like nerd guy would bring it up in every
• 2:21:45
  conversation. But after 2016, I became more
• 2:21:51
  like you Max. I just kind of became the quiet
• 2:21:53
  guy who didn't really, you know, bring it up and then some wood
• 2:22:00
  wood. I'd say you know it got to the
• 2:22:04
  point where people I would say like well, I'm a liberal but
• 2:22:08
  this this trance thing is a bit much don't you think I would go
• 2:22:12
  like yeah, you know, it is a bit much all I warm it.
• 2:22:19
  So, you know some or something like that, right?
• 2:22:24
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:22:24
  It's like oh, yeah. It didn't used to be that crazy,
• 2:22:27
  huh, you know and again a lot of these Normie.
• 2:22:31
  Is will say, like they don't have a problem with trans people
• 2:22:34
  existing what they have, a problem with is what the trans
• 2:22:38
  people call validation and they're like no I don't have to
• 2:22:42
  like you can pretend you're a dinosaur I'm not going to lie
• 2:22:48
  because it's not true. Some of them will they will
• 2:22:50
  humor you if you're polite and they'll call you miss or
• 2:22:54
  whatever. But they don't mean it.
• 2:22:57
  Well will he marry? I think I think people here
• 2:23:00
  Where each other to a serving step.
• 2:23:03
  Yeah. Why, you know, if you're if
• 2:23:06
  you're being nice about it, but if you're being belligerent
• 2:23:08
  about it, that's when people get really upset.
• 2:23:11
  That's when people get belligerent back, you know, you
• 2:23:15
  know, it's ma'am, right? And everybody normies, even
• 2:23:18
  people on the left knew that, that was stupid.
• 2:23:22
  Like you getting that mad. You look like a dude, right?
• 2:23:28
  And you're walking in a GameStop or whatever.
• 2:23:30
  Starting to Fuck. I think it was GameStop starting
• 2:23:33
  to fucking big problem over it because they said sir.
• 2:23:37
  Well, they teach you that in the service industry and at a
• 2:23:40
  glance, you're a sir. Sorry, not sorry.
• 2:23:42
  Like and and I understand you want validation, you want to
• 2:23:46
  here's the thing. Most normies, believe it like
• 2:23:48
  this. You can live your life and
• 2:23:51
  believe you are and dress. However the fuck you want, I
• 2:23:55
  don't have to do it back. You're trying to get you can
• 2:23:59
  control your life, you can't control mine.
• 2:24:04
  But the thing is why is it language that they use?
• 2:24:07
  Because language you thinking language, controlling,
• 2:24:11
  controlling your language is a backdoor way to controlling your
• 2:24:15
  thoughts. My favorite, one of my favorite
• 2:24:20
  characters that I found was the oil change guy, who's this?
• 2:24:24
  Like, you know, overweight overalls, you know, greased up
• 2:24:30
  big beard looking redneck. and I said sir to him, he's like he's
• 2:24:38
  like, you know, My name is Jeff and you know you want to be
• 2:24:44
  careful doing that because you don't want to miss gender
• 2:24:48
  faithful by accident, right? Like a tad of like it's just
• 2:24:53
  it's like, I understand I'm Southern to but you know, just
• 2:24:58
  you want to, we want to be inclusive type deal.
• 2:25:02
  It was just funny to find like the woke Millennial, you know,
• 2:25:06
  fucking oil change guy. Yeah, yeah, and that's what I
• 2:25:11
  mean by. Like, they get, they get you
• 2:25:13
  with the language in thinking language.
• 2:25:16
  And so, if they can control the words that you use, they can
• 2:25:20
  control what you think the nature of your thoughts?
• 2:25:24
  Yeah, I mean this this makes sense that this is how I control
• 2:25:27
  Sam, right? Wait, what?
• 2:25:33
  Don't worry about it, i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i, I knew
• 2:25:39
  I was feeling MKUltra. Oh yeah.
• 2:25:44
  So one final thing because I am fucking dead-ass tired.
• 2:25:48
  But this needs to, this is something we should talk about.
• 2:25:50
  Just because if you hear my voice, if you hear this part of
• 2:25:54
  the show, please go look at the CIA official website where they
• 2:26:00
  have Leaked the entire contents of the MKUltra to program, so
• 2:26:06
  not the one, everybody's familiar with but the second
• 2:26:09
  version of it, it's not MKUltra. That's not the code name for it
• 2:26:12
  but it's essentially the same thing from the 80s and it's all
• 2:26:17
  Declassified and if you read all 29 pages of it, you might be
• 2:26:21
  horrified. So go check that out because you
• 2:26:26
  should probably know what your government was doing.
• 2:26:28
  Trying to control your mind. Yeah.
• 2:26:32
  Friendly advice from the advice though, folks considering it's
• 2:26:35
  like 12:30 East Eastern here where you might want to do that
• 2:26:39
  in the morning because this doesn't seem like it would be a
• 2:26:43
  good bedtime rating to know. It's the best because I want you
• 2:26:47
  to have nightmares about it. So you get the reality of how
• 2:26:51
  horrific what our government did in the 80s.
• 2:26:53
  TS to its own citizens was behind closed.
• 2:26:57
  Doors, did it happened? They have released it publicly
• 2:27:01
  and then let it slide under the radar and nobody's talking about
• 2:27:05
  it. And I just want to bring
• 2:27:06
  attention to this because it's so fucking critic.
• 2:27:09
  If you read this shit, An official government document on
• 2:27:14
  an official government website. You're going to be like what the
• 2:27:16
  actual fuck, the X-Files is real wasn't.
• 2:27:21
  Was that the was that the one that had the CRT mood
• 2:27:26
  manipulation? No.
• 2:27:28
  Okay. Nothing related to see Artie but
• 2:27:32
  it had critical. Not critical race Theory like
• 2:27:34
  literal cathode ray tube in light of.
• 2:27:39
  I don't remember everything that was, there's some fucking Wild.
• 2:27:42
  Shit. And they they they literally
• 2:27:44
  drilled holes in people's brains and put fucking read it.
• 2:27:49
  Just read it. Oh God, that is telling you that
• 2:27:53
  it was drilling holes in people's brains and nobody seems
• 2:27:56
  to care. Well honestly at this point, Max
• 2:28:01
  nothing would surprise me anymore.
• 2:28:05
  Like, you know me, I'm not a conspiracy guy.
• 2:28:08
  No, but this isn't a conspiracy. This is what the CIA published
• 2:28:12
  on the CIA website, parts of it are even redacted.
• 2:28:16
  I'm no eyes. Some parts aren't redacted
• 2:28:19
  because of the acts actually horrific nature of what is being
• 2:28:23
  discussed Max? You know me.
• 2:28:25
  I'm not I'm not a conspiracy theorist either, but I will tell
• 2:28:28
  you You, I'm not sure if you were listening to the show yet
• 2:28:32
  when I had this conversation with Apex, but, you know, in
• 2:28:38
  short, like I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
• 2:28:41
  However, covid did change things for me in the sense, like, I
• 2:28:47
  never would have thought that the government would have
• 2:28:50
  actually done like a cobra. Do I like a walk down like they
• 2:28:54
  did with covid? I was like, I was a well that's
• 2:28:57
  some real Alex Jones shit and then when they when they did
• 2:29:02
  that I was like well fuck. If they can do this then what
• 2:29:07
  else Can they do? It was all like it's it wasn't
• 2:29:12
  like a and I'm not looking at it from a Doomer perspective.
• 2:29:16
  I'm looking at it from a I'm just not surprised if they
• 2:29:19
  actually had like, aliens area for 21 and MKUltra and shit like
• 2:29:26
  that. Oh, I know, I don't know if any
• 2:29:28
  of that like Area, 51, whatever. I do know that.
• 2:29:32
  If the government says, there's nothing to see, there's
• 2:29:35
  something to see. For sure but I just figured I
• 2:29:41
  had to get that one out. Go go check out these recently
• 2:29:45
  released CIA documents. They will blow your mind.
• 2:29:48
  They certainly blew some people's minds back then too.
• 2:29:52
  Yeah. Just you know before whatever.
• 2:29:55
  Wrap it up. Thank you for being on here Sam.
• 2:29:59
  Thank you for joining us Max. Well I mean considering I'm the
• 2:30:04
  one who owes the show. Thank you for being a lot on
• 2:30:07
  here too and it's good having you here.
• 2:30:11
  Happy to be here. Let me just finish out.
• 2:30:14

• 2:30:32
  kidding. By the way, in my closing.
• 2:30:33
  Thoughts are rhino, run Raytheon Ron, hate speech, Ron Ron diesel
• 2:30:39

• 2:30:46
  rondi, shyster rondi, Saboteur remote connection problem, Ron,
• 2:30:52
  Ron D controlled opposition, Ron the failed Deceiver.
• 2:31:01
  Bravo bravo bravo my final thoughts are.
• 2:31:11
  Are the fine AI is tool. It's not good or bad.
• 2:31:17
  It's see like I guess the best way to explain this to you know
• 2:31:23
  continue to concern us who are afraid of a.
• 2:31:26
  I think about think IAI the same way you guys think about guns,
• 2:31:31
  right? Guns aren't good.
• 2:31:34
  Nor are they bad their tools? They can be used for good or for
• 2:31:40
  bad. It's just how you use them.
• 2:31:43
  And AI is basically the same thing at this point in essence.
• 2:31:49
  And that's that also David Sachs, please come on the
• 2:31:57
  clothes. Well, I know you're a supporter
• 2:31:59
  of rhino, Ron, but we would still love to have you.
• 2:32:03
  And if you could make the case more, why Rhino Ron is not Not
• 2:32:11
  right or wrong then. We will not have you for sure.
• 2:32:21
  But also Elon Musk, come on the way Field Report, please.
• 2:32:26
  Yes. Might as well shoot for the
• 2:32:30
  moon. Right?
• 2:32:31
  Well yeah. It's not all Trump needs to come
• 2:32:34
  on the Whitfield report. Well, we'll listen, not only if
• 2:32:38
  we're shooting big here, if Eva if Tesla could make me a Tesla,
