- 0:08Audio shared by Testecleese: We're gonna… there's gonna be a new world order out there.
- 0:11Audio shared by Testecleese: I'm leaving.
- 0:15Audio shared by Testecleese: That's ever complained.
- 0:16Audio shared by Testecleese: Who are fake dudes?
- 0:19Audio shared by Testecleese: I am not suicidal!
- 0:23Audio shared by Testecleese: We'll circle back with you directly. I can circle back, I'll circle back with you.
- 0:27Audio shared by Testecleese: Do not come.
- 0:30Audio shared by Testecleese: Do not cough.
- 0:32Audio shared by Testecleese: I'm gonna come.
- 0:35Audio shared by Testecleese: Hello, and welcome to episode 349 of the Jeffrey and Brian Show. I'm Jeffrey.
- 0:39Brian McFadden: I'm Brian.
- 0:41Testecleese: We're just two guys, drinking some beers, talking about what's going on.
- 0:44Audio shared by Testecleese: Fuh.
- 0:45Testecleese: I'm actually drinking Crown Royal tonight.
- 0:48Testecleese: I complained that the local place… and you know, I can buy… Whiskey at the gas station?
- 0:54Brian McFadden: Yep, I can do that here, too.
- 0:56Testecleese: Yeah.
- 0:57Testecleese: I could, I could get beer at the gas station in Massachusetts, could I in Virginia? Did I have to go to the ABC for beer?
- 1:04Brian McFadden: No, you can get beer at the gas station, and
- 1:07Testecleese: And wine, right?
- 1:08Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:09Testecleese: Yeah.
- 1:11Testecleese: Yeah, exactly, there's no… there's no ABC… in West Virginia.
- 1:16Testecleese: Or at least it's not the same rules, you don't need to go to the ABC… yeah, there's no ABC, which is funny, because there's this place down the street
- 1:23Testecleese: that says ABC, it has a sign. I say down the street, it's like… 20 miles.
- 1:29Testecleese: But it's, like, an old, old-ass sign, and I'm wondering, does it mean something else, or is it an old law that, you know, they got rid of?
- 1:35Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:36Testecleese: 20 years ago.
- 1:39Testecleese: Anyway, anyway… Couple follow-up things that are very interesting. In Michigan.
- 1:45Testecleese: Have you noticed the trend, Brian, that we're always talking about Michigan?
- 1:49Brian McFadden: Yeah, ever since I moved here.
- 1:51Testecleese: I mean, and not just the local thing, but, like, everything… I'm like, holy shit, do I put this in local, or do I put this under fucking, you know…
- 1:59Brian McFadden: Come easy.
- 2:00Testecleese: charge, you know what I mean?
- 2:04Testecleese: But… Hem… Hamtramks. Hemtramsks?
- 2:10Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:11Testecleese: city, I guess, in Michigan, ban the pride flag, like, several years ago, 3 years ago, 4 years ago.
- 2:19Testecleese: Went through all the appeals processes, and the way they worded it.
- 2:24Testecleese: Doesn't just ban the pride flag, but it allows…
- 2:28Testecleese: It allows you to fly an Irani flag
- 2:32Testecleese: From the government buildings in this city.
- 2:36Testecleese: But not the pride flag.
- 2:38Brian McFadden: That's awesome.
- 2:39Testecleese: I was like, whoa.
- 2:42Testecleese: You know?
- 2:46Testecleese: It's like, okay, alright, I guess that's how we're doing it. And it's… it's really pissing the left off, because they…
- 2:52Testecleese: I can't.
- 2:53Brian McFadden: I thought I had it going.
- 2:54Testecleese: Yeah, well, I say, I call it. It's actually a Dennis Prager thing, cut flower politics.
- 3:00Testecleese: They get something, and they go, look how beautiful it is, right? But they don't realize, as soon as they cut that flower off, you killed it.
- 3:06Brian McFadden: Right.
- 3:06Testecleese: Because, you know? The problem is, they wanted all this diversity, and they saw an all-Islamic city council, just like Dearborn, as, oh, look at all this diversity. That's not diverse, everyone's the fucking same.
- 3:18Testecleese: Right?
- 3:19Testecleese: Dearborn banned the pride flag, too, didn't they?
- 3:23Brian McFadden: I believe so, because they're mobile.
- 3:25Testecleese: Yeah, go put a bunch of conservative Islamists, Muslims, in charge of government, and watch how fast you can't say,
- 3:33Testecleese: Have a parade for being gay, you know?
- 3:37Testecleese: Everyone looks at Christianity For the, hey, gay ain't right thing.
- 3:43Testecleese: But Christians, for the most part, accept it as, that's your sin, not my sin, right?
- 3:49Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 3:51Testecleese: Muslims do not see it that way, and many do, I'm sure, but their policy does not reflect that. How's that?
- 3:59Testecleese: Because I know… and here's the problem, is people are gonna go, well, I know a Muslim. Yes, but the plural of anecdote is not data, right?
- 4:07Brian McFadden: Right.
- 4:09Testecleese: And that's a problem I think a lot of people don't realize.
- 4:14Testecleese: See, I didn't realize… There was,
- 4:19Testecleese: Tyler Robinson, I didn't realize it was an idea that he wasn't gonna stand trial at all. I thought he was only looking to get the death penalty taken off the table.
- 4:28Brian McFadden: Well, that didn't work either.
- 4:30Testecleese: No, that didn't work either, no, he's like, that's the dumbest argument I've ever heard. Why?
- 4:36Brian McFadden: This is why you may shouldn't represent yourself in court.
- 4:40Testecleese: He's like, well, I don't… And here's the thing, he did not confess.
- 4:46Testecleese: Not even a, I plead guilty confession, but he didn't even say.
- 4:50Testecleese: I shot him, but this is whatever. He said, should the prosecution be able to prove their case that I was the assassin?
- 4:58Testecleese: then I had put no one else's life at risk, because I would have, under their presumption.
- 5:03Testecleese: Only intended to kill Charlie Kirk, I only took one shot, no one else was at risk, therefore it is not a…
- 5:11Testecleese: I put many people's lives at risk situation, which would remove the death penalty.
- 5:16Testecleese: Where it's like, just because you're a good shot doesn't mean it's not. It could have ricocheted through a fucking bird flying by, you know?
- 5:24Brian McFadden: Yeah, exactly.
- 5:27Testecleese: You can't predict all the variables.
- 5:30Testecleese: It's basically the… was the judge's argument.
- 5:33Testecleese: The guy, whether or not they're gonna put you to death, that's up to the…
- 5:37Testecleese: Well, actually, I don't know, I think each state does it differently.
- 5:40Testecleese: Oh yeah, doesn't… many states, I know, the jury has to recommend death sentence before the judge can even
- 5:47Testecleese: Sentence it, right?
- 5:49Brian McFadden: I don't know what Utah… how Utah's rules are set up. I don't either.
- 5:53Testecleese: For all I know, they plead… they vote guilty, and then the judge gets to decide, I don't know.
- 6:01Testecleese: That's too bad, man, and they made a martyr out of Charlie, but they made a joke out of TPUSA, didn't they?
- 6:08Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 6:11Testecleese: Shit, speaking of, did you see some dude did a cornfield, a corn maze for Halloween with the face of Charlie Kirk?
- 6:18Brian McFadden: No, I haven't seen that.
- 6:19Testecleese: shit, I was like, that must have taken so much work with, like, a drone and GPS to be able to be on the ground and cut the corn down, you know what I mean?
- 6:27Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 6:30Testecleese: Oh, shit.
- 6:32Testecleese: I'm making a point of covering these, I don't know if I should put them in follow-up or not, because they don't happen often enough.
- 6:38Testecleese: To have, like, a group?
- 6:39Testecleese: But these teen takeover things.
- 6:42Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 6:42Testecleese: And have you noticed every time shit happens in Colorado, it's always the same city?
- 6:48Brian McFadden: No, I haven't noticed that.
- 6:50Testecleese: It's always Aurora.
- 6:51Brian McFadden: Oh, okay.
- 6:52Testecleese: It's always Aurora.
- 6:55Testecleese: 500 kids got out of, like, a high school football game or something?
- 7:00Testecleese: Went and attacked the strip mall or something like that.
- 7:04Testecleese: wrecked, oh, a supermarket and a Burger King, just jumping on tables.
- 7:09Testecleese: Screaming, they wrecked everything, they threw everything on the floor, they had fights.
- 7:15Testecleese: What are the police supposed to do?
- 7:18Testecleese: No, like, honestly, what are the…
- 7:19Testecleese: Okay, you're the cops, you're supposed to restore order, right?
- 7:22Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 7:23Testecleese: There's 500 fucking teenagers. What do you… are you supposed to… if this were grown adult men, you know, 25 years old, you would just tear gas them, wouldn't you?
- 7:33Brian McFadden: Right.
- 7:33Testecleese: Boom, dispersed!
- 7:35Testecleese: What happens if you tear gas 500 teenagers?
- 7:40Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 7:41Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 7:42Testecleese: Yeah, there goes your job, right?
- 7:44Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 7:45Testecleese: I don't…
- 7:46Testecleese: Do you have… what can we do? Is there some… I know that these younger kids can hear higher frequencies, maybe we could do some kind of, like, LRAD thing?
- 7:55Testecleese: When we blast a high frequency that they can hear, that'll…
- 7:59Testecleese: you know, put them to their knees, baby, I don't know.
- 8:02Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 8:05Testecleese: I don't know, do you have an idea?
- 8:07Testecleese: Let's be real, as you know as well as I, you can't tear gas the crowd.
- 8:11Brian McFadden: Right.
- 8:12Testecleese: 500… again.
- 8:14Testecleese: tear gas isn't usually necessary. Yes, you're right, 100%, it's not usually necessary, but 500 people writhing?
- 8:21Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 8:21Testecleese: That's what tear gas is for!
- 8:23Brian McFadden: Right.
- 8:24Testecleese: Because everyone runs in different directions to get away from it, and the riot's over.
- 8:28Testecleese: You might get little small brawls here and there, and window smashings, but then at least you can go and control them individually, you know?
- 8:35Brian McFadden: Huh?
- 8:37Testecleese: I don't know, man, this is a real problem that police are having.
- 8:42Brian McFadden: Only in Aurora.
- 8:44Testecleese: Well, no, not only in Aurora. What happened? The kids did it in the tunnel in Boston to the fuck… through the Big Dig tunnels to the airport.
- 8:53Testecleese: Like, one kid got arrested because he was just doing a fucking wheelie and ran into a police car.
- 8:58Testecleese: We talked about this on this show.
- 9:03Testecleese: This shit keeps happening, and it's a real problem, and people are gonna start getting hurt real bad if something doesn't change.
- 9:10Testecleese: Because I don't know about you, dude, if I'm at Burger King and 500 fucking kids storm the place and rioting…
- 9:17Testecleese: I'm protecting my family.
- 9:18Brian McFadden: Right, yeah.
- 9:21Testecleese: And…
- 9:23Testecleese: I don't want to go too much further than that, but you know as well as I how quickly that can escalate and where it might end up, and I don't want to be in that situation.
- 9:34Testecleese: Plus, I only carry, I don't carry an extra magazine, let alone 3,500 extra magazines, you know?
- 9:44Testecleese: Oh my god. Okay, I don't know why this is news…
- 9:48Testecleese: Maybe because it's corroboration, I guess? This Letitia James thing?
- 9:53Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 9:54Testecleese: What was it, her Chief of Staff, or whatever they call them, Chief Staffer, or whatever?
- 9:59Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 9:59Testecleese: Louis was like, yeah, go ahead.
- 10:01Brian McFadden: target Trump, you know, so they're looking at collusion, you know, that she planned this out, it wasn't like…
- 10:07Testecleese: We know this, though, she literally campaigned on, I'm going to find something to put Trump in jail for. This is how she got elected.
- 10:15Testecleese: Yep. So is this… is this… I don't understand why this is news, like, this is…
- 10:21Testecleese: Brian, I actually have a short-term memory condition because of brain surgery.
- 10:26Brian McFadden: Right.
- 10:27Testecleese: And I…
- 10:28Brian McFadden: I don't think…
- 10:30Testecleese: I remember this, and no one else… I don't understand why this is news.
- 10:34Testecleese: It's just corroboration, but, like, it's corroborating, what, herself? She was the one who came out and said, I was going to do it.
- 10:41Testecleese: Right. And then she did it.
- 10:43Testecleese: I don't Sorry, it's just… the redundancy, it…
- 10:51Testecleese: Yes, I'm glad she came out and said something.
- 10:55Testecleese: It's… I don't understand why this is being put out there as if it's a big deal. We already knew this, you know?
- 11:01Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 11:02Testecleese: Alright.
- 11:04Testecleese: Oh, Brian!
- 11:07Testecleese: right after I moved to West Virginia, I wrote my then-governor, Jim Justice.
- 11:15Testecleese: We'll come back to later in this conversation tonight.
- 11:19Testecleese: Wrote him a letter as my, you know.
- 11:22Brian McFadden: And he said no.
- 11:23Testecleese: well, I got a form response. Thank you, yadda yadda yadda. But I said.
- 11:29Testecleese: West Virginia needs to start minting their own coins out of
- 11:33Testecleese: silver and gold. It's gonna…
- 11:36Testecleese: Completely not be affected by inflation.
- 11:42Testecleese: And, you know what? I bet you Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Ohio.
- 11:46Testecleese: Western Virginia would accept this currency, too.
- 11:50Testecleese: You can still use the US dollar, but make your own coin, because the Constitution says you're allowed to. Got a form letter. Texas, I believe, is the third state? Maybe the second state?
- 12:01Testecleese: That's in there somewhere. Anyway, is now, has made gold and silver legal tender.
- 12:09Testecleese: And it's funny, I mentioned it to the wife, and she's like, well, that seems weird. Cashiers these days have a tough enough time figuring out change if the machine doesn't spit out the right number.
- 12:18Brian McFadden: Right,
- 12:20Testecleese: Because how are they gonna figure out the translation to gold? It's like, no, no, it's like, they literally mint their own coins worth this many, and…
- 12:28Testecleese: You don't… That's just what it is. This, this much silver is worth this many. And then…
- 12:33Testecleese: the US dollar will adjust around the gold-silver coin, you know?
- 12:38Brian McFadden: Well, I think it's a little bit different with Texas, because they've actually said by the law, according to the law, the comptroller's office will contract with a debit card provider, which will facilitate the conversion of gold and silver to be deposited into account as dollars.
- 12:56Brian McFadden: For the amounts at… dollar amounts at point of sale.
- 13:00Testecleese: Same idea, okay. So this is a gold-backed reserve system.
- 13:04Brian McFadden: Yes.
- 13:05Brian McFadden: Per Texas.
- 13:06Testecleese: So I can have a backed, a gold-backed, payment method that…
- 13:12Testecleese: the dollar amount I spend is… will adjust depending on the… the value of gold, basically.
- 13:18Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 13:20Testecleese: Okay, no, I like that.
- 13:21Testecleese: I'm gonna spend this much gold instead of this many dollars, and then, you know, as I spend a bar, which is a ridiculous amount of gold, by the way.
- 13:30Testecleese: They'll literally physically take a bar of gold out of my stockpile.
- 13:36Brian McFadden: Yep, so…
- 13:37Testecleese: I was thinking…
- 13:37Brian McFadden: Posit pressured metals, with the Texas Bullion Depository, and use it as legal tender, so…
- 13:46Testecleese: That's fascinating.
- 13:48Testecleese: That's an interesting take.
- 13:52Testecleese: That's a very interesting take,
- 13:54Testecleese: I still like the idea of minting your own coins, and shit.
- 14:00Testecleese: Let's not making, you know, $20 coins.
- 14:04Testecleese: Problem is, what happens when a $20 coin falls out of your pocket?
- 14:08Brian McFadden: Unless you're riding a… It's gonna hurt. It's almost as bad as when you lose a $100 bill out of your pocket.
- 14:14Testecleese: Oh, yeah, you know what, though? It's great when you put that winter coat back on, you find that $100 bill in the inside pocket.
- 14:21Testecleese: But, yeah, I mean.
- 14:24Testecleese: How many… think of how many dollars of change you pulled out of your couch cushions before, right?
- 14:29Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 14:30Testecleese: Now imagine if each one was $1 to $5. You know what, though? You were missing 5 bucks, you'd probably go looking for it, huh?
- 14:35Brian McFadden: Yeah, I would.
- 14:37Testecleese: You'd be like, alright, I'm checking the cushions.
- 14:41Testecleese: Alright, I need to get some ice for my next drink.
- 14:45Brian McFadden: There you go.
- 14:45Testecleese: next.
- 14:46Brian McFadden: We got, Jelly Oil crying.
- 14:50Brian McFadden: Let's see here… he cried on Jimmy Kimmel.
- 14:54Brian McFadden: After, he made a Trump joke that, backlashed on him, because, You know… He doesn't usually…
- 15:04Brian McFadden: Jelly Rolls, this is, blah blah blah blah.
- 15:08Testecleese: Did you watch… did you watch… and do you hear… even hear about his,
- 15:12Brian McFadden: No, I didn't, because I don't do… I don't pay any attention to Jimmy Kimmel.
- 15:16Testecleese: Neither do I, but it made big news, because Jill Laurel is a country singer.
- 15:20Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 15:21Testecleese: Country, quotation marks, right?
- 15:22Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 15:25Testecleese: Who's… Whose countries, do more Democrats and more Republicans listen to country?
- 15:32Brian McFadden: More Republicans.
- 15:33Testecleese: Okay. He went on Jimmy Kimmel and talked shit about Trump.
- 15:38Testecleese: Which is… don't get me wrong, he was a little self-deprecating at first, like, he talked about how he was so happy you lost all the weight, and he said he…
- 15:46Testecleese: he lost an entire Trump, while that was supposed to be a dig at Trump being fat, and I was like, if you lost an entire Trump, then you were the fat fucker, right?
- 15:55Brian McFadden: Yup, exactly.
- 15:56Testecleese: But he's like, trust me, man, if you lose the weight, you'll be happy to see your dick again, and it was just…
- 16:01Testecleese: He kept doing that, and I was like.
- 16:03Testecleese: man, it's like, you forgot who your audience is. Exactly. This was… this was Kimmel's chance to get…
- 16:10Testecleese: Conservatives to actually check his show out again.
- 16:13Brian McFadden: I mean, it didn't work.
- 16:15Testecleese: And instead, Jelly Roll alienated his own audience, and on the last episode, because he did a week
- 16:21Testecleese: co… Guest host, because I guess Jimmy went on vacation or something, or…
- 16:27Testecleese: got sick, or whatever, you know what I mean? Time off.
- 16:30Testecleese: None of my business, why he's taking time off, he's absolutely entitled to.
- 16:33Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 16:34Testecleese: Don't get me wrong, I disagree with Jimmy Kimmel, but he has every right to take time off and do his family…
- 16:39Brian McFadden: contract, you know, yep,
- 16:41Testecleese: Exactly.
- 16:43Testecleese: But yeah, so this guy was doing a guest host for a week, and on the last episode, he actually cried with the backlash he got from his own audience, because they were all conservatives. And I was like, dude, I was like, even your independents typically don't listen to country, you know?
- 16:58Brian McFadden: Right.
- 17:01Testecleese: Which I got a good laugh when, there were a lot of people say, like, you conservatives aren't allowed to cry for Dolly Parton, you don't understand who she was. I was like, are you fucking kidding me? She was from Tennessee!
- 17:10Testecleese: You know what I mean? It's like, she…
- 17:14Testecleese: She was a country singer in the fucking 80s.
- 17:17Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 17:19Testecleese: I tell you, the liberals in Massachusetts were not listening to country in the 1980s, okay?
- 17:26Testecleese: They're listening to I'm Every Woman by Whitney Houston, alright?
- 17:33Testecleese: okay, this one is… I got a good giggle out of this one. I think you shared it.
- 17:39Testecleese: the, the family in Washington that heard noises upstairs, maybe I shared it.
- 17:44Testecleese: Sure. So they called, emergency assistance, because they thought it was… Intruder, right?
- 17:52Brian McFadden: It was.
- 17:53Testecleese: Yeah, the authorities show up, and it was a cat burglar.
- 17:57Testecleese: There was a fucking bobcat sitting at the top of the stairs.
- 18:01Brian McFadden: That's insane.
- 18:03Testecleese: And, I mean, okay. When people hear bobcat, they… they correctly firstly, think wildcat.
- 18:10Brian McFadden: Yep, yep.
- 18:12Testecleese: But they're not mountain lions.
- 18:15Testecleese: You know what I mean? Like…
- 18:16Testecleese: I've seen house cats as big as… almost as big as a bobcat. I had a 30-pound cat at one point. He was…
- 18:23Testecleese: similar dimensions as a Bobcat, he was just a little fatter, you know what I mean?
- 18:27Brian McFadden: Right.
- 18:28Testecleese: But, I mean, a 30-pound wild cat.
- 18:31Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 18:32Testecleese: We'll mess your worth up on it.
- 18:34Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 18:35Testecleese: Big time. But all I could think of was, like, if this happened in West Virginia.
- 18:41Testecleese: I hear someone poking around my house that's not supposed to be here. I send the wife out the house with the phone, I was like, you call the police, or whatever. I'm… I'm getting my gun.
- 18:50Testecleese: And by the time the police show up, that cat's already fucking dead, you know what I mean?
- 18:54Brian McFadden: I don't know.
- 18:55Testecleese: Well, are you gonna go try to pick that kitty up and put it out?
- 18:58Brian McFadden: Oh, hell no!
- 19:00Testecleese: No. Oh, bye.
- 19:01Brian McFadden: I didn't want to do the baby possums!
- 19:04Testecleese: I was just gonna say, I did not shoot the possum.
- 19:06Testecleese: I didn't even notice you sent that until I went back to put the show together. I did not shoot the possum. My fucking dogs left that at my doorstep as a gift.
- 19:15Brian McFadden: Heck yeah, yeah.
- 19:17Testecleese: You know if the motherfucker was alive?
- 19:19Testecleese: The wife patted the thing's tail for 3 minutes, right? Then it got up and walked away!
- 19:25Brian McFadden: That's what possums do!
- 19:27Testecleese: It stopped playing possum. It was like, oh, okay, you're not gonna hurt me, and it left! I was like, oh my god, like, do you have…
- 19:34Testecleese: And she's like, oh, it's so cute! I'm like, look at its teeth! If that thing chomps you, your finger's gone!
- 19:42Brian McFadden: I hope your rabies are up to date.
- 19:44Testecleese: No, no, no, actually, this is…
- 19:47Testecleese: one of the many, many cool things about the American Possum It's immune to rabies.
- 19:53Brian McFadden: Huh. Okay.
- 19:54Testecleese: Yeah, we've been testing it for decades now, trying to find out how. We've been trying to find a vaccine out of its blood.
- 20:01Testecleese: And it's… Amazing! You know what I mean? And plus, it's the only indigenous marsupial to, North America.
- 20:10Testecleese: makes me wonder, did it evolve separately, or is it so ancient that it existed before Pangea split, you know?
- 20:17Brian McFadden: Right, right.
- 20:20Brian McFadden: And, and other exciting news, we're not gonna hear about the budget shutdown until after the midterm. Woo! That kicked the can down the road. Keep on kicking the can.
- 20:32Testecleese: I agree it is wrong to do it this way.
- 20:36Testecleese: And you know what? That was an Obama term, too, wasn't it? We're just gonna kick the can down the road, let the next guy figure, and it's been that…
- 20:43Brian McFadden: For years. For decades.
- 20:45Testecleese: Yeah, since before Obama took office, and we're still just kicking the can, but this is good for the Republican Party.
- 20:51Testecleese: Because it's after midterms.
- 20:53Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 20:54Testecleese: But I got a feeling at the same time, if the government shut down right before midterms, everyone's gonna look at the Democrat Party, too, you know?
- 21:04Testecleese: I don't know, man,
- 21:08Testecleese: how do we come to a balanced budget these days? How did Bill Clinton do it? Was it just because.
- 21:12Brian McFadden: It was because the Republicans took over the House and the Senate.
- 21:17Brian McFadden: And he felt compelled to try to get along with him. It's also a different Democrat Party, you know?
- 21:23Testecleese: But the Republicans have the House, the Senate, and the.
- 21:28Brian McFadden: Oh, let's… come on, let's be realistic. Never gonna happen unless we get a whole lot more… we get, like, a supermajority in the Senate.
- 21:38Brian McFadden: And we get more actual Republicans in the… in the office, you know? These people, a lot of these people have been Republicans for as long as Cocaine Mitch.
- 21:49Brian McFadden: And, you know, and they're rhinos to the heart and soul of the thing.
- 21:54Testecleese: and Collins.
- 21:55Brian McFadden: Yes.
- 21:56Testecleese: She, by the way, she's gonna be the new, Lindsey Graham example of Rhino. In honor of Lindsey Graham, as much as I disliked the men's opinions, we did talk about him an awful lot, and he was the…
- 22:09Testecleese: Yeah. Example of Rhino, and I think it's gonna be Susan Collins now. Unless you've got someone better.
- 22:15Brian McFadden: What about Martha Murkowski?
- 22:18Testecleese: Which one's she?
- 22:19Brian McFadden: Alaska.
- 22:22Testecleese: Yeah, I remember something coming up about Alaska recently, and we talked about it more than once, but I don't…
- 22:27Brian McFadden: Yeah, because there's, there… was it… I think it was the House of Representatives, they have two, like, Dan Stevens running on the ticket.
- 22:37Testecleese: Oh, Dan Sullivan's in a.
- 22:39Brian McFadden: everyone.
- 22:39Testecleese: showed up.
- 22:40Brian McFadden: Right, and they kicked the one guy off, so…
- 22:43Testecleese: Hi.
- 22:46Testecleese: Yeah, that's messed up.
- 22:48Testecleese: But I thought that was… Pardon me.
- 22:54Testecleese: Barry.
- 22:57Testecleese: the one guy… Because one Dan Sullivan was already in office, right?
- 23:01Brian McFadden: Right.
- 23:02Testecleese: markowski, was it… She's not trying to take his seat, is she?
- 23:08Brian McFadden: No, both senators in Alaska are Republican.
- 23:12Brian McFadden: And Dan Sullivan's one of them, and she's the other one.
- 23:15Testecleese: Yeah, okay, because the whole Dan Sell… okay, okay, you're saying that was the thing we talked about, that… Yeah. Because these Democrats who had the same name, like, oh, just run on the ticket, they'll vote for the wrong one, and it's…
- 23:26Brian McFadden: Right, exactly, we'll confuse them.
- 23:29Testecleese: That was that other… okay, so this one's a rhino. What does she do that,
- 23:34Testecleese: doesn't sound very Republican Party.
- 23:37Testecleese: Then, cause I… I don't know.
- 23:38Brian McFadden: Oh, she tends to… tends to vote against Trump any way she can.
- 23:44Brian McFadden: she tends to, you know, vote with Democrats more, or not vote at all.
- 23:52Testecleese: then why run on a Republican ticket?
- 23:54Brian McFadden: Well, actually, she was primaried out a few years back, a couple terms ago, and she put herself in as a write-in, and won the… won the… won the party again, won the state.
- 24:04Testecleese: Do you want a write-in vote?
- 24:06Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 24:07Testecleese: No fucking way.
- 24:08Brian McFadden: Because she's brought that much money to Alaska!
- 24:11Testecleese: Well, hey, if she's bringing money in, that… that's…
- 24:15Testecleese: The job as a senator is to look out for their state, correct?
- 24:20Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 24:21Testecleese: And the job of a congressman is to look out for their constituents. And I think this is a major problem, is that most of these senators and congressional
- 24:30Testecleese: leaders, or whatever you want to call them, congressmen, congresswomen, whatever, the Congress…
- 24:36Testecleese: They're trying to look out for what's best for the United States, and that is not their fucking job.
- 24:41Testecleese: They're supposed to look out for who votes for them.
- 24:46Testecleese: Yes, they can make… they can make decisions on…
- 24:49Testecleese: international stuff, but, POTUS, for the most part, is supposed to handle most international stuff, right?
- 24:55Testecleese: The executive branch.
- 24:58Brian McFadden: Right.
- 25:03Testecleese: I did find it very interesting that Congress did, the Democrats even approved a Trump tariff.
- 25:10Testecleese: Granted, it was only, what, Russia?
- 25:13Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 25:15Testecleese: And I was like, oh, you know what, though, at least they got congressional approval, you know what I mean? It's like… and this is something we talked about right away, before it became even a topic, was like.
- 25:24Testecleese: Okay, we call a tariff a tax, but is it a tax? You know what I mean?
- 25:30Testecleese: And that's where the whole, what do words-mean thing comes in, right?
- 25:35Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 25:35Testecleese: Which is another thing we're gonna get into, is what is a woman? Right?
- 25:42Testecleese: Oh, yeah, we had a mayor of some city I've never heard of, out here in West Virginia somewhere, go put away for stealing, like, $600,000 of, taxpayers' money.
- 25:55Testecleese: And I know a lot of people say, oh, that's not that…
- 25:58Testecleese: First of all, we say it's not that much, it's a lot of money, but if you're talking about a city like New York, they wouldn't even notice it missing, right?
- 26:04Brian McFadden: Right.
- 26:05Testecleese: Problem is, the cities here are, like, 300 people.
- 26:09Testecleese: Yeah, I know it sounds like…
- 26:10Brian McFadden: Oh, that people are gonna… that's a lot of money for a town that small.
- 26:13Testecleese: Exactly. That's the difference.
- 26:15Brian McFadden: Probably the majority of their annual budget.
- 26:19Testecleese: Yeah!
- 26:20Testecleese: And…
- 26:21Brian McFadden: Not all of it.
- 26:22Testecleese: I've actually had someone back up north, because I brought this up to someone.
- 26:26Testecleese: about the cities here, and how small they are, you know? Why isn't it a town instead, like, you know, like Pembroke, Scituate, Marshfield, whatever? I was like, because people live 60 miles apart.
- 26:38Brian McFadden: Right.
- 26:40Testecleese: And I was like, you can't get town hall meetings every week if you're driving
- 26:46Testecleese: 30 miles once a week to get… come together and say.
- 26:51Testecleese: No, I don't think we should show pornography to children, and then go back home, right?
- 26:55Testecleese: Yeah. So, no, so they went city structure, you would elect people to make those decisions for you.
- 27:00Testecleese: And I don't think… I think this is a major thing that people don't understand, is how government works.
- 27:06Testecleese: There are different forms of government.
- 27:09Brian McFadden: Moses.
- 27:09Testecleese: They all meet… they all work different ways, and we have different forms of government within our own country.
- 27:16Testecleese: Like… For example, town versus city, then you got county, right?
- 27:21Testecleese: How much does the county really get involved, honestly?
- 27:25Testecleese: That the state or your city doesn't, right?
- 27:28Brian McFadden: Right.
- 27:29Testecleese: You might have to pay a tax?
- 27:32Testecleese: Every now and then? I mean, obviously, you're paying taxes to the county, or else you wouldn't have a sheriff or deputies, right?
- 27:40Brian McFadden: Right.
- 27:45Testecleese: Yeah, I don't know, then you got the UCMJ.
- 27:49Testecleese: a completely separate.
- 27:51Testecleese: System, you know?
- 27:53Testecleese: Which isn't… that's more disciplinary, but okay, military… military instead of, cities.
- 28:02Testecleese: Anyway… Back on topic here.
- 28:05Testecleese: There's this nasty stank going on in Charleston, West Virginia. No one knew what it was, which… I read this article and it pissed me off when I read it.
- 28:14Testecleese: Because everyone's fucking stupid, and I understand the people that live there didn't know, but someone should have known. This is a nasty smell that kept getting worse and worse and worse, right?
- 28:24Testecleese: Finally, someone went out and investigated.
- 28:27Testecleese: A fucking train full of grain derailed, and it was just abandoned.
- 28:32Brian McFadden: Nobody noticed that the train company didn't say anything about it?
- 28:37Testecleese: That's what I'm saying, it's like, how… and… Apparently…
- 28:40Brian McFadden: They want to claim insurance money or something on it.
- 28:43Testecleese: They cleaned up their train wreck, they left…
- 28:46Testecleese: Hundreds of tons of grain just laying on the side of the railroad to rot away.
- 28:51Brian McFadden: Well, that's their responsibility, too.
- 28:54Testecleese: It absolutely is. You made a mess, you gotta clean it up, or pay to have it cleaned up, right?
- 29:01Testecleese: But, oh man, could you imagine… what do you do with that much grain that pours out? Like, you can't sell it, it's dirty. No.
- 29:09Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 29:10Testecleese: You can't even give it away to charity, because they're not allowed to accept it, because it's dirty, right?
- 29:15Brian McFadden: Oh,
- 29:16Testecleese: What do you… you burn it?
- 29:21Testecleese: And…
- 29:22Testecleese: And what do you do with grain? If you… let's just say you got a train car full of grain brine. What are you gonna do with it?
- 29:28Brian McFadden: Absolutely nothing. Sell it.
- 29:30Testecleese: Yeah, weird.
- 29:31Brian McFadden: Tell it to a farmer.
- 29:33Testecleese: Sell it to someone who knows what the fuck to do with it, right?
- 29:37Testecleese: It's like, I mean, I could grind it down into flour, but it's like.
- 29:40Brian McFadden: with the tools I have.
- 29:42Testecleese: That'll take 3 years with the tools I have.
- 29:46Brian McFadden: You get the biomes.
- 29:46Testecleese: machine to do it.
- 29:47Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 29:51Testecleese: I mean, yeah, you could make flour with a mortar and pestle, but you'll be there forever.
- 29:56Testecleese: Try and do a train car.
- 29:58Testecleese: I'm curious now what a train car full of grain weighs.
- 30:02Testecleese: I have no idea what grain weighs. Typically, what we harvest is the seeds, right?
- 30:09Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 30:12Testecleese: I don't… I have no idea, I'm very good at this. Brian's checking AI now, because he thinks it's interesting, too.
- 30:18Brian McFadden: Grain only is, 200 to, a typical railroad car, carries 100 to 115 tons of grain.
- 30:30Brian McFadden: 200 pounds… 200,000 to 230,000 pounds of grain.
- 30:37Testecleese: I thought it was gonna be, like, 1 or 2 tons.
- 30:39Brian McFadden: A loaded car was gonna be 263 to 286,000 pounds.
- 30:48Testecleese: Wow.
- 30:49Testecleese: That lets you know how effective the rail system is versus Rocks, huh?
- 30:54Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 30:55Testecleese: You know, this is hilarious, speaking of, I mentioned to you before the show, Brian.
- 31:00Testecleese: The wife and I did our,
- 31:02Testecleese: Early, because we're not gonna be able to do it, but we did our 15th anniversary.
- 31:07Testecleese: night-out date thing, you know what I mean?
- 31:10Testecleese: And we did,
- 31:12Testecleese: It was, like, a tandem bike, but it's, like, side-by-side tandem, kind of, but rail car thing, like… like the old seesaw thing on the railroad tracks, remember that?
- 31:21Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 31:21Testecleese: But yeah, you would pedal, and move you down the railroad.
- 31:26Testecleese: Forgot where I was going with this.
- 31:30Testecleese: Oh, man.
- 31:31Brian McFadden: You're on a date.
- 31:32Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, it had something to do with the wheat.
- 31:35Testecleese: And, Whatever, doesn't matter. Oh, the rail system!
- 31:42Testecleese: We actually called it in advance because a nasty storm came into us, but it was a 2-hour… it was a 2-hour drive to where we were going. It's like, is it gonna be affected? Like, no, no, storm's not even close to us. Like, okay, we're coming.
- 31:54Testecleese: Because we had reserved this a week in advance.
- 31:56Brian McFadden: Right.
- 31:58Testecleese: We drove through nasty… we actually saw a tree within 30 feet of us get hit by lightning heading down the mountain from our house, like.
- 32:07Testecleese: Shit, this is nasty.
- 32:09Testecleese: We get out of the storm.
- 32:12Testecleese: And we get a message that our reservation has been pushed back a half hour due to weather, and I was like, yeah, okay, I get it.
- 32:19Brian McFadden: Here we go, here we go.
- 32:21Testecleese: But no, it was only a half hour, but we get there, and I check my phone, it's like, alright, it's supposed to be 7… 1900, right?
- 32:28Brian McFadden: Stop.
- 32:30Testecleese: I was like, what are the odds? What are the odds? This is on time? She goes, it's the rail system.
- 32:36Testecleese: It's always on time, that's the whole point.
- 32:39Testecleese: And I was like, the rail system's never on time!
- 32:41Brian McFadden: Right?
- 32:43Testecleese: And I was like, that's actually, like, the only good thing anyone has ever said about communism, actually. It was they got the trains to run on time.
- 32:51Testecleese: It's like, the only good thing, and isn't that the…
- 32:55Testecleese: Like, the joke everyone makes, too, is like, well, at least the trains ran on time.
- 32:58Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 33:00Brian McFadden: Right, it's true.
- 33:01Testecleese: I mean, that's… I was like, but this is a private company. Right. They should be able to schedule better.
- 33:06Testecleese: You know?
- 33:09Testecleese: No, bro.
- 33:10Brian McFadden: Don't have any control over the weather.
- 33:13Testecleese: But it wasn't that…
- 33:14Testecleese: But the… the tour behind us had come back, or ahead of us came back already, and it took them that long to turn the…
- 33:22Testecleese: stuff around.
- 33:24Testecleese: And bring everything out, and I was like, you guys…
- 33:27Testecleese: you should know this by now. It's like, how do you run a business? Like, it seems like at some point, you could be throwing 10 people home, because it's too late to do it at all, you know? It's like…
- 33:37Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 33:38Testecleese: If it takes you an extra 10 minutes, schedule the extra 10 minutes.
- 33:42Brian McFadden: Yep, exactly.
- 33:44Testecleese: That's just… efficiency. When you don't schedule in the amount of time it takes, you're always behind schedule.
- 33:53Testecleese: But anyway, back to Jim, West Virginia. Jimmy Morrissey is considering running for governor again.
- 33:59Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 34:00Brian McFadden: There might be a problem.
- 34:02Testecleese: He's a congressman right now, I believe, right?
- 34:06Brian McFadden: Senator, I think.
- 34:07Testecleese: Senator. Is it? Maybe.
- 34:15Testecleese: He's a very, very wealthy man.
- 34:20Testecleese: Very, very wealthy, man. This is actually a huge issue in West Virginia, we've talked about here. Him and his family.
- 34:27Testecleese: own a piece of a major West Virginia casino that was failing somehow? How does a casino fail?
- 34:35Brian McFadden: Kind of? Right? Yeah.
- 34:37Testecleese: they own a significant portion. I was like, I…
- 34:41Testecleese: thought that was against the law in, like, every state for a private casino, like, the government had to have… well, okay, let me rephrase that.
- 34:49Testecleese: You're… it's allowed to be a private casino.
- 34:52Testecleese: But the government has, like, Absolute control, right?
- 34:56Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 35:02Testecleese: Yeah, did you find out if he's a senator, or did they…
- 35:06Brian McFadden: I'm pretty sure he's a senator.
- 35:09Testecleese: Maybe.
- 35:10Testecleese: I remember… I remember he was my governor when I got here.
- 35:15Testecleese: Like I said, I wrote him that letter. And actually, on this show, I specifically said, I'm gonna write my, my governor a letter.
- 35:22Testecleese: And you're like, yeah, man, like, you're allowed to do that. And I got… and I think I read back the form letter. I was like, yep.
- 35:28Testecleese: No one even read what I did. They saw make gold and silver money, and they're like, yeah, okay, you know what I mean?
- 35:37Testecleese: And for some reason… okay.
- 35:39Testecleese: Here's the thing, is that seen as a, quote, libertarian idea?
- 35:44Testecleese: But… So what?
- 35:48Testecleese: Just because these… most of these guys are crazy doesn't mean that…
- 35:52Testecleese: It's not… some of this stuff's not a good idea, right?
- 35:56Brian McFadden: Right.
- 35:57Testecleese: Yeah.
- 35:58Testecleese: Alright.
- 36:03Testecleese: Yeah.
- 36:07Testecleese: So what, the DNC gathered in Michigan?
- 36:10Brian McFadden: This was the Democrat Party nominating convention for Michigan.
- 36:17Brian McFadden: And, they, you know, the Dems love to do their land acknowledgement at the beginning of every meeting.
- 36:23Brian McFadden: But this person didn't, learn how to properly say the actual tribe name of what I got. Oh, yeah. I got it here, I'm ready to go.
- 36:32Testecleese: No, I'm gonna laugh at this, because I… Aye.
- 36:37Testecleese: Don't even live there.
- 36:39Testecleese: I've heard this argument enough times that I… I don't know all six, okay? But I know Anatabe.
- 36:47Testecleese: Is how you pronounce one of these. And she got called up by her own constituents, right?
- 36:51Brian McFadden: And then she actually had somebody stand up and say how… I… here, we'll just play it.
- 36:57Testecleese: Yeah, yeah.
- 36:58Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 37:00Testecleese: More volume.
- 37:00Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Land Acknowledgements in Michigan recognizes.
- 37:02Testecleese: Turn it out.
- 37:03Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Is he ancestral?
- 37:04Brian McFadden: It's up all the way.
- 37:05Testecleese: No, it's not.
- 37:06Audio shared by Brian McFadden: land of the Ashley Beck Three Fighters Confederacy. Say it again for me.
- 37:14Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Stand up. You do it better than me.
- 37:17Audio shared by Brian McFadden: I think our names being pronounce right, so make sure I get it right.
- 37:21Testecleese: Is that a white woman?
- 37:22Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Ishinaabe?
- 37:23Brian McFadden: No.
- 37:25Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Thank you.
- 37:26Testecleese: It's tough to tell the lighting.
- 37:29Brian McFadden: Yeah, this isn't a very good camera, or audio.
- 37:32Audio shared by Brian McFadden: And…
- 37:32Testecleese: And the blonde hair.
- 37:35Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Ojibuah, Chippewa!
- 37:38Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Bonsai… Coach, y'all making another one wrong.
- 37:44Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Photo what told me?
- 37:47Testecleese: Hold on.
- 37:47Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Give it a pause if you can.
- 37:50Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 37:52Testecleese: Okay, I know we're near the end.
- 37:55Testecleese: If you're gonna make it a point.
- 37:57Testecleese: to do land acknowledgements for all of the land that you stole, wouldn't you make it a point to be able to fucking
- 38:04Testecleese: You stole it from?
- 38:05Brian McFadden: Yep, and how to pronounce their tribe names. I mean, Pottawatomie's a huge tribe where I'm from here in Michigan.
- 38:12Brian McFadden: I mean, that's why we… we've actually kept our… our mascot into Concha, because we're the Concha Indians, because the Potomunami tribe was huge in this area of Michigan, and…
- 38:24Testecleese: Well, I just want to point out, Brian, that literally every state can claim indigenous peoples, except for, like.
- 38:33Testecleese: pieces here and there in the Midwest where they weren't… Far…
- 38:37Testecleese: But, like, Massachusetts, for example.
- 38:42Testecleese: There's just… there were so many… and here's the.
- 38:44Brian McFadden: Why is it?
- 38:45Brian McFadden: This is the…
- 38:46Testecleese: There were tribes within tribes, you know, right? There were, like, nations within tribes.
- 38:50Brian McFadden: Yeah. Well, this is just Adams virtue signaling, and they…
- 38:54Brian McFadden: Didn't even do that well on this time.
- 38:57Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 38:57Testecleese: Like, the Wampatuck, the Wampanoa, the Wampanaw, right?
- 39:03Testecleese: These were all tribes in Massachusetts, but check this out. They were all… Abernaki.
- 39:09Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 39:09Testecleese: And by the way, Abernake is what Elizabeth Warren claimed to be.
- 39:13Brian McFadden: Nels.
- 39:14Brian McFadden: They denied her claims.
- 39:16Testecleese: Yes, they did, publicly, too.
- 39:19Brian McFadden: didn't eaten.
- 39:19Testecleese: DNA?
- 39:20Brian McFadden: test. And that was even worse. That didn't help her cause at all.
- 39:25Testecleese: publish that.
- 39:26Brian McFadden: If it doesn't support your claim, you don't publish it.
- 39:31Testecleese: Oh, yeah, she…
- 39:32Brian McFadden: She… her…
- 39:33Testecleese: Her own DNA test showed she was more fucking… Neanderthal.
- 39:38Testecleese: Then Abernaki, she still shared it, and I was like, the Neanderthal has been extinct for, like, 200,000 years, you know?
- 39:49Testecleese: Oh, my goodness. It's like, no, she's the whitest person on the planet, you know? He's like, oh, you know, my great-great-great-grandfather raped a native. I'm Native American. It's like, what the fuck is the matter with you? You know?
- 40:07Testecleese: That's worse than saying, I have Black friends, right?
- 40:11Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 40:13Testecleese: Oh, you know what's worse than both of them? Is Rachel Dollazzo, and everyone forgot about her, right?
- 40:18Brian McFadden: I haven't.
- 40:19Testecleese: Her name keeps coming up, too.
- 40:22Brian McFadden: And she's not… she's not part of the… what? She had a great job doing the,
- 40:29Brian McFadden: What was it? What was it? She was in charge of, African American organizations.
- 40:36Testecleese: Or something like that.
- 40:37Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, huh, yup.
- 40:38Testecleese: Hold up.
- 40:39Brian McFadden: I realize.
- 40:41Brian McFadden: I wasn't athlete African American.
- 40:43Testecleese: I'm gonna get some ice cubes, Brian, but I just wanna… I wanna pose a question to you, let you think about it, and answer.
- 40:49Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 40:51Testecleese: How does, a title like NAACP still get by today?
- 40:57Testecleese: Because of what it stands for.
- 41:00Testecleese: The North American Association for Colored People.
- 41:06Brian McFadden: Oh, well, that's…
- 41:07Testecleese: For a minute.
- 41:07Brian McFadden: Yeah, Bill, probably because most people don't actually know what it stands for.
- 41:14Brian McFadden: You know, ignorance is blessed.
- 41:16Brian McFadden: You know, people don't have to, like, actually identify with it, you know, that's what a great… what's the great thing about acronyms, you know, is because,
- 41:27Brian McFadden: You know, most people do not ask what the acronym actually means, they just go with it. It's like, oh, that represents me.
- 41:36Testecleese: Oh, yeah, are you allowed to call anyone colored people?
- 41:40Brian McFadden: No!
- 41:41Testecleese: Why not?
- 41:42Brian McFadden: Because it's racist!
- 41:44Testecleese: Oh, gay!
- 41:45Brian McFadden: And it's outdated!
- 41:46Testecleese: So, even me acknowledging this organization is racist for me saying it out loud, then, right?
- 41:53Brian McFadden: Yep,
- 41:55Testecleese: I can't even donate money to these people without being racist!
- 42:00Testecleese: So why should I try?
- 42:02Brian McFadden: Probably shouldn't.
- 42:04Testecleese: Well, I don't because of this. I think there's more important shit to give money to than racial causes.
- 42:10Testecleese: We do our charity work in our own community, not nationwide, you know what I mean?
- 42:16Brian McFadden: Right.
- 42:19Testecleese: But yeah, I just, I think it's hilarious.
- 42:22Testecleese: It's like, oh, NWSCP said this. I was like, yeah, but you told me I'm not even allowed to say that acronym because it's racist, you know?
- 42:29Brian McFadden: That's because most people… I bet if you did a man on the street.
- 42:35Brian McFadden: In an African American community, and asked what the acronym stood for, 99% of them couldn't give you the actual acronym.
- 42:43Testecleese: Or if they can, is this, like, the cue being acceptable again? Like, I can… I can say the word queer again on YouTube.
- 42:51Testecleese: Visa.
- 42:53Testecleese: It used to be a slur, right? Right. And now it's okay again.
- 42:59Testecleese: Very… by the way, we got nailed for playing Dolly Parton as a tribute, that's messed up.
- 43:03Brian McFadden: Yup, yup. Well, somebody claimed their copyright.
- 43:07Testecleese: Yeah, but we weren't playing it to play it, we were playing it to say we miss you.
- 43:11Brian McFadden: You know, it's AI doing the search, and you know…
- 43:16Brian McFadden: And they sent it off to the company, and the company's like, you can't play that without paying us, and we're not paying, so we… our intro on YouTube in probably the United States did not actually play.
- 43:29Brian McFadden: Rest of the world, it was mine.
- 43:35Testecleese: Oh, yeah, back to, Michigan.
- 43:39Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 43:40Testecleese: What's going on in Michigan?
- 43:41Brian McFadden: Well, we got, we got, we got Democrat Michigan Senate hopeful, Abdul Al Saeed.
- 43:47Testecleese: You think he's gonna take the seat?
- 43:49Brian McFadden: Well, thanks to the rich Democrat Party, his fundraising is through the roof from all the people out of the state.
- 43:58Testecleese: Yeah, but you could raise all the money in the world.
- 44:01Testecleese: If people…
- 44:03Brian McFadden: He's… in most polls, he's leading right now, but, you know, it's still early, and most people haven't even been started… they won't start paying attention to this race until next week. But, let me tell you, just watching some local TV, and watching some local streaming services.
- 44:22Brian McFadden: I don't see any Republican ads, all I see is how great of an American Abdul El Said is, and how he was raised by his grandparents, and they raised him to be an upstanding American doctor.
- 44:37Testecleese: But he's not a doctor.
- 44:39Brian McFadden: He's a medical professional, but he calls himself a doctor.
- 44:44Testecleese: Yeah, well, he never got a…
- 44:47Brian McFadden: He never actually… he never got his license to be… he never applied to be his… a doctor.
- 44:54Testecleese: Yeah, because an MD doctor is different than a PhD doctor.
- 44:58Brian McFadden: It doesn't have either one of those.
- 44:59Testecleese: Yeah, well, PhD, once you get your… once you…
- 45:05Testecleese: you have to write a thesis, and here's what's crazy about getting a PhD, a doctorate.
- 45:13Brian McFadden: like, Miss… Mrs. Biden?
- 45:17Testecleese: Yeah, okay. An honorary doctor.
- 45:20Brian McFadden: -
- 45:21Testecleese: You had to come up with an original idea, right?
- 45:24Brian McFadden: Right.
- 45:25Testecleese: And write an entire paper about it that makes people go, huh!
- 45:28Brian McFadden: And this isn't a small paper! This paper takes years to write sometimes.
- 45:33Testecleese: It'll be a decade.
- 45:34Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 45:36Testecleese: to get your PhD.
- 45:37Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 45:38Testecleese: Because they had a great idea, alright, you're a doctor, and I'm pretty sure doctor is, what, Latin or Greek for, teacher?
- 45:47Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 45:49Testecleese: Sooner or later, we're gonna run out of original ideas, right?
- 45:52Brian McFadden: thing.
- 45:55Brian McFadden: Well, CBS News is, taking heat because a report came out that, you know, you cannot delete your social media posts off the internet and never expect them to come again as a politician. But 9-11 is next week.
- 46:13Testecleese: Oh my god, I know, and you know what?
- 46:15Brian McFadden: 25th anniversary, and
- 46:18Testecleese: How many years?
- 46:19Brian McFadden: 25.
- 46:20Testecleese: Okay, I thought you said 22nd.
- 46:22Brian McFadden: 25 years, and he came out and he had social media posts back from 2020 that was comparing the 3,000 Americans killed on 9-11 to the death toll of the
- 46:36Brian McFadden: Pandemic of COVID.
- 46:42Testecleese: That… that's… disgusting, and I…
- 46:45Testecleese: I understand… I understand the argument people are gonna try to bring up in terms of death count, but death count of COVID was way higher according to statistics, right?
- 46:55Brian McFadden: Right.
- 46:57Testecleese: However, they died of a, quote, natural disease from a bat in the cave.
- 47:03Brian McFadden: Right.
- 47:03Testecleese: Versus a terrorist attack trying to kill as many people as possible.
- 47:07Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 47:08Testecleese: It's not the same thing.
- 47:10Brian McFadden: No, no. I can't believe it.
- 47:11Testecleese: If you compare them to be the same thing.
- 47:14Brian McFadden: Yo.
- 47:14Testecleese: And the problem, and I hate to say it, I know, this is…
- 47:18Testecleese: This is my problem with his…
- 47:23Testecleese: an issue I'm having with Islam, in general, well, besides its… false ideology. It's a piece.
- 47:30Brian McFadden: peaceful religion.
- 47:32Testecleese: I don't know, your average Muslim is, and let's be 100% honest, Brian, right?
- 47:38Testecleese: The average Muslim you bump into is gonna shake your hand and friggin' drink a… okay, he's not gonna drink it.
- 47:43Brian McFadden: I drink a beer.
- 47:45Brian McFadden: Not gonna barbecue with you, either.
- 47:47Testecleese: He's the…
- 47:47Brian McFadden: Barbecue.
- 47:48Testecleese: No, he'll eat the beef ribs, though, won't he?
- 47:51Brian McFadden: Yep, beef ribs, yep.
- 47:52Testecleese: Yeah, they're gross though, aren't they?
- 47:54Brian McFadden: Not as good as pork.
- 47:56Testecleese: But you'll hang out, you'll be your friend.
- 47:59Testecleese: And this is a practicing Muslim versus, you know, just like you've got the Jews that eat bacon, you know what I mean?
- 48:05Brian McFadden: Right,
- 48:08Testecleese: But… there's just… there's a fundamental difference, because you're… at this point in history, you're a Christian extremist.
- 48:18Testecleese: is, what, Charlie Kirk?
- 48:20Brian McFadden: Apparently, that's what they say.
- 48:24Testecleese: Look at your Muslim extremists.
- 48:27Testecleese: They're loading themselves with explosives.
- 48:31Testecleese: To run into a building…
- 48:34Testecleese: and hoping they're gonna get 72 virgins. The problem is they don't understand, they're all frickin' 45-year-old, fat, greasy guys in their mom's basement playing video games on their computer, you know?
- 48:44Brian McFadden: Right.
- 48:45Testecleese: Yeah, they're thinking, like, hot 18-year-old virgin women. No, no, no, these are old fat, greasy guys.
- 48:52Testecleese: Alright?
- 48:56Testecleese: Huh.
- 48:58Testecleese: And, you know what?
- 49:00Testecleese: It is just mean to slap Bible on the Quran. Not the Qur'an, the Quran's Jewish. Okay, okay, no, you're right. That's mean too. That's mean too, because the Jews don't eat bacon either, right?
- 49:13Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 49:15Testecleese: Which, by the way, I just want to point out that the don't eat pork thing that Islam has is directly from the Jewish religion.
- 49:21Brian McFadden: Of course it is, because they're both offshoots of the Jewish religion. Every… Oh, everybody…
- 49:28Testecleese: parameters.
- 49:28Brian McFadden: Abraham…
- 49:29Testecleese: Well, the thing is, the re…
- 49:32Testecleese: If we wanna look at history.
- 49:34Testecleese: We weren't… we didn't know how to cook pork properly back in the day, and people would get sick and die, so they said, don't eat pork.
- 49:44Testecleese: Now we can know how to cook it safely.
- 49:48Testecleese: But religion dictates they still can't eat pork.
- 49:52Brian McFadden: Right.
- 49:53Brian McFadden: But they still follow the laws from the Old Testament.
- 49:59Testecleese: Yeah, well, thank God for Jesus, huh? Or thank Jesus for Jesus.
- 50:02Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 50:04Testecleese: No, it's the whole sh… he…
- 50:07Testecleese: Alright, I've been having a real crisis with my religion lately, Brian. We're not gonna have this out tonight.
- 50:14Testecleese: I'm just gonna say this Lindsey Clancy thing.
- 50:18Testecleese: Has not helped this crisis.
- 50:21Testecleese: the reactions I've been seeing…
- 50:23Brian McFadden: Right. We'll get to it, I think.
- 50:26Testecleese: Yeah.
- 50:26Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, there we go, yep,
- 50:28Testecleese: Some things are right, some things are wrong.
- 50:36Testecleese: You know?
- 50:37Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 50:39Testecleese: And… some things… I don't know, like, I don't know if I necessarily… Literally believe, like, literal…
- 50:48Testecleese: Word of God. And I know this sounds bad coming from a Catholic, that's why I'm saying a fracture in my faith, you know what I mean?
- 50:57Testecleese: I'm not sure everything in the Bible's literal.
- 51:01Testecleese: I'm not sure if Jesus was necessarily the Son of God, however, he may have… I think he was sent by God.
- 51:07Testecleese: maybe a prophet, and I'm not saying I'm a Muslim.
- 51:13Testecleese: Maybe God did cut a piece of him off, himself off, and make Jesus. I don't know. I can't possibly know. It's beyond.
- 51:19Brian McFadden: Right.
- 51:20Testecleese: Spectrum of knowledge.
- 51:21Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 51:22Testecleese: But… We were being such barbarians and so horrible for so long.
- 51:28Testecleese: God destroyed the world once already.
- 51:31Brian McFadden: Yep,
- 51:32Testecleese: He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Apparently, destruction wasn't the correct answer, which… so God sent Himself to show us how to be good people.
- 51:43Brian McFadden: Right.
- 51:45Testecleese: Right?
- 51:46Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 51:48Testecleese: Which makes me think that… God's not infallible.
- 51:55Testecleese: In that… he tried to destroy things several times.
- 52:00Testecleese: To fix things, and it didn't seem to do it, and he chose a different direction.
- 52:05Testecleese: So I don't… Again, my, my…
- 52:09Testecleese: Question on my faith is,
- 52:13Testecleese: Is God actually infallible, or is God adjusting
- 52:19Testecleese: It just takes thousands of years at a time for God to make an adjustment, because… we could even go into simulation theory if you want.
- 52:27Testecleese: Overnight, Let's say the guy's name's literally gone on his computer.
- 52:34Testecleese: Puts in a command into his frickin' simulator game.
- 52:37Testecleese: to change things. Enters Jesus, right?
- 52:42Testecleese: Goes to bed overnight, 8 hours or whatever.
- 52:46Testecleese: To us humans in the computer system.
- 52:49Testecleese: It was another 2,000 years, you know?
- 52:55Testecleese: Yeah.
- 52:56Testecleese: I don't know, I'm having a real issue differentiating Christianity, creationism. How's that?
- 53:04Brian McFadden: Okay. Go.
- 53:06Testecleese: from… Simulation theory.
- 53:11Testecleese: Because any simulation… The Creator is God.
- 53:19Testecleese: Right?
- 53:20Brian McFadden: Right.
- 53:21Testecleese: And this is something I've rubbed you more than once.
- 53:25Testecleese: You believe in a literal 6 days to create the heavens and the earth, 1 day to rest.
- 53:33Testecleese: I'm okay with that. I get it, that's what's written, Word of God, okay?
- 53:37Brian McFadden: Well, we don't know what God's definition of back then was a day.
- 53:42Testecleese: This is way before we existed.
- 53:44Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 53:45Testecleese: A day could… a day could have been 100 million years.
- 53:48Testecleese: billion years. What there'd be like was probably the Big Bang, right?
- 53:52Brian McFadden: Could be.
- 53:52Testecleese: It was… it was, I say $100 billion.
- 53:56Testecleese: Theories are the universe is 6.7 billion years old.
- 54:01Testecleese: We think there's been life here for, what,
- 54:05Testecleese: Several hundred million, approaching a billion years.
- 54:11Brian McFadden: Yep, I was learning that in 6th grade social studies this week.
- 54:13Testecleese: Yeah. What if we're waiting for…
- 54:19Testecleese: next, Monday. You know what I mean?
- 54:23Testecleese: If it's still Sunday, When God's resting, right?
- 54:29Testecleese: What happens on Monday?
- 54:33Testecleese: Is… is that judgment?
- 54:36Testecleese: And you guys do this whole, what is it?
- 54:40Testecleese: The good people get pulled off the rapture.
- 54:44Brian McFadden: Yeah, there's different theories on Rapture.
- 54:47Testecleese: Yeah, Catholics don't do that.
- 54:50Brian McFadden: No, you're in purgatory.
- 54:52Testecleese: No, Catholics don't believe in purgatory either.
- 54:57Testecleese: Purgatory would imply that God made a mistake, and that's impossible, which…
- 55:03Testecleese: Again, drive… leads me to my… issue, if God is infallible.
- 55:10Testecleese: Why is he keep needing to make adjustments?
- 55:15Testecleese: Unless it was planned out from the beginning, which is entirely possible.
- 55:18Testecleese: But I just… I'm having a real issue.
- 55:21Brian McFadden: -
- 55:22Testecleese: Right now, because… It's not that… I, I got…
- 55:27Testecleese: I've had a couple of rattles with my foundation. One of them was when I found out what war really was, and what crime really was, you know what I mean?
- 55:34Testecleese: And I finally accepted free will, et cetera, et cetera.
- 55:39Testecleese: This Lindsey Clancy thing.
- 55:42Testecleese: I'm willing to accept free will.
- 55:45Testecleese: As why it happened, right?
- 55:48Testecleese: My issue is, how many people… the reactions, how's that?
- 55:53Brian McFadden: Right.
- 55:54Testecleese: It's crazy.
- 55:55Brian McFadden: And I'm like, I mean, I heard…
- 55:58Testecleese: to accept this as God's creation.
- 56:01Brian McFadden: Right.
- 56:04Testecleese: I don't understand how many people can say it's okay to kill your fucking kids.
- 56:08Brian McFadden: I'm… yeah, it's insane. We'll get to this topic here after the next topic.
- 56:13Testecleese: Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 56:14Brian McFadden: One of the topics that, we've been following, even though neither one of us really give two shits about it anymore.
- 56:21Testecleese: Basketball?
- 56:22Brian McFadden: No, WNBA.
- 56:28Testecleese: I was gonna say, but we got women's basketball in here somewhere.
- 56:31Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, it's coming.
- 56:34Testecleese: What, what's, what is.
- 56:36Brian McFadden: Well, we got, this Edmalarkey was defeat… he defeats Seth Moulton in the Massachusetts Democrat Senate primary. What's so big about that?
- 56:47Brian McFadden: What makes that sense?
- 56:48Testecleese: Oh,
- 56:50Testecleese: the guy who lost, I think, was a… or, yeah, one of them was a major… let biological males compete against biological females in youth sports.
- 57:02Brian McFadden: But that's not gonna fly in Massachusetts.
- 57:05Testecleese: No, that… the thing is, it is. What gets me is, though…
- 57:09Testecleese: You're gonna allow them to peat.
- 57:11Testecleese: many of these states are allowing these individuals, because the Supreme Court said states get to choose, right?
- 57:17Brian McFadden: That's exactly what it… yep, yep.
- 57:20Testecleese: Right? That was actually what was handed down the Supreme Court, and I am actually open.
- 57:25Brian McFadden: And all Trump said was that there won't be federal funding to your school district, or your state, if you want to do this.
- 57:33Testecleese: That sounds fair to me, honestly.
- 57:35Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 57:35Testecleese: And as much as I hate to say it, if a Democrat shows up next and does it the other way around, turnaround's fair play, right?
- 57:42Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 57:47Testecleese: But the… my biggest issue with this is that they're saying you should be allowed to compete through, like, school.
- 57:53Testecleese: Which includes Leah Thomas, the swimmer, right?
- 57:56Brian McFadden: Right, yep,
- 57:58Testecleese: But then, as soon as you get to the professional level.
- 58:01Brian McFadden: You're not allowed.
- 58:02Testecleese: Apparently, it doesn't matter anymore, because you got two people that… two trans women wanting to compete in the WNBA, and the WNBA said, no, you're biological men.
- 58:12Brian McFadden: Well, I guess that's probably why,
- 58:15Brian McFadden: one of the reasons why Kathy Engelbert is gonna step down from the WA as Commissioner.
- 58:21Testecleese: Okay, okay, you can say step down, I… wife and I talked about this, and I saw that you laughed when I shared this.
- 58:30Brian McFadden: Well, yeah, and also…
- 58:31Testecleese: FIRED, and they're letting her to say she quit, right?
- 58:34Brian McFadden: And then this, this title from ESPN is utterly ridiculous, where it says, she oversaw the WNBA boom. No, she didn't! It was when Kalen Clark got into the WNBA, that's when the actual league started booming.
- 58:48Testecleese: She oversaw it in terms of commissioner, but Katen Clark was the boom.
- 58:53Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 58:54Testecleese: And then this whole trans name became an issue. I'm shocked it was basketball, but you know what?
- 59:03Testecleese: It makes sense.
- 59:03Brian McFadden: It's all their fault, because they wanted to have it both ways.
- 59:07Testecleese: Well, no, that's… it makes perfect sense, though. Like, can you name another professional women's sport that… we have men's professional sports here that started before basketball? I'm pretty sure WNBA was…
- 59:20Testecleese: Okay, they were separate.
- 59:22Testecleese: They were actually separate, but you're right. You're right. Oh, actually, that's something we talked about, isn't it? What's her name there, the…
- 59:30Brian McFadden: Oh, my word.
- 59:31Testecleese: very lesbian…
- 59:32Brian McFadden: Rappin' out.
- 59:34Testecleese: Rapinoe, Megan Rapinoe!
- 59:36Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 59:36Testecleese: Like, let him play. It's like, yeah, you're retired. You never got run over by a friggin' 190-pound dude.
- 59:42Testecleese: She genuinely thinks she could have competed.
- 59:47Brian McFadden: I would bring… I want to bring it on. I want her to do it. I want to see it. Let her compete.
- 59:52Testecleese: She's… she's too old. She retired.
- 59:55Testecleese: Years ago, It's funny, Megan Rapinoe and Mia Hamm are the only two I remember from soccer at all.
- 1:00:03Testecleese: Wrapping up because of this crap, Mia Hammonds, because she ripped her shirt off when they won the, what was it, the World Cup or the Olympics?
- 1:00:12Brian McFadden: Probably World Cup.
- 1:00:14Brian McFadden: That's a big…
- 1:00:15Testecleese: zeal.
- 1:00:17Testecleese: seem…
- 1:00:18Brian McFadden: It might have been Olympics, I don't think… I don't think it's… I don't think it's World Cup. Olympics.
- 1:00:22Testecleese: They might have. They might have, I don't know. We did have an amazing women's soccer team, and actually, I know as a fact, after whatever… look this up, actually, Brian, because I know as a fact that after, whatever championship this is that they won, they played several high school boys' soccer teams.
- 1:00:40Brian McFadden: They all us.
- 1:00:41Testecleese: And they lost to every single boy's team.
- 1:00:48Testecleese: It's like… And Rapinoe was on the team.
- 1:00:51Testecleese: And she's saying, let them compete? It's like, well, shit, they're gonna, they're gonna, transition.
- 1:00:56Testecleese: Wait, you think they transitioned at 6, or at…
- 1:01:00Testecleese: 18 when I… oh, I'm not a man, you know what I mean?
- 1:01:05Testecleese: Hey, you know as well as I, because we do these stu- we read this shit.
- 1:01:09Testecleese: Boys, mature slower than women, right?
- 1:01:13Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:01:15Testecleese: Girls go through puberty much earlier. They're menstruating in junior high, you know?
- 1:01:21Testecleese: Elementary school, at this point now.
- 1:01:30Testecleese: I can't believe we let 18-year-olds vote at all, let alone 18-year-old boys.
- 1:01:38Testecleese: I'm a stupid…
- 1:01:39Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah, so she… she was World Cup champion, apparently. World Cup?
- 1:01:44Testecleese: up, there was.
- 1:01:45Brian McFadden: Funny fight, it gets better, it gets better.
- 1:01:48Testecleese: Beautiful.
- 1:01:49Brian McFadden: 2015 and 2012.
- 1:01:51Brian McFadden: And then we got the Olympic gold in 2015 and 2019 World Cup, and then the gold…
- 1:01:58Testecleese: One of the greatest chocolate plays of all time.
- 1:02:00Brian McFadden: And then they won the gold medal for Olympics in 2012. So we first Olympics.
- 1:02:06Brian McFadden: And then… World Cup. World Cup twice. And then we got bronze in 2021.
- 1:02:13Testecleese: So, she, she's, one of the most…
- 1:02:17Testecleese: Winningest women's soccer players of all time, right?
- 1:02:21Brian McFadden: She's also the most outspoken player on social and political issues.
- 1:02:26Testecleese: But she didn't have to compete against men.
- 1:02:31Testecleese: And I don't think she understands, because she was on the team… here's the problem, Brian. She was on the team that competed against high school boys and lost.
- 1:02:39Brian McFadden: She never brings that up.
- 1:02:42Testecleese: Why… Okay.
- 1:02:45Testecleese: She never brings it up, but she must know that it happened, right?
- 1:02:49Brian McFadden: Maybe she has selected memory.
- 1:02:53Testecleese: There's no way, cause I'm sure… I'm sure…
- 1:02:56Testecleese: It's… oh my god, this video!
- 1:02:58Brian McFadden: Dude!
- 1:02:59Testecleese: The entire game's been recorded, they made a big fucking deal out of these games. You remember this!
- 1:03:03Brian McFadden: Has there been a Netflix documentary made about it yet?
- 1:03:07Brian McFadden: Has Hulu done?
- 1:03:08Testecleese: Kind of special.
- 1:03:09Brian McFadden: Why not?
- 1:03:10Testecleese: Brian, let's do it.
- 1:03:12Testecleese: How do we… how do we… how do we get Megan Rapinoe?
- 1:03:16Testecleese: To show up to interview us, discussing…
- 1:03:20Testecleese: We're losing to high school boys.
- 1:03:22Brian McFadden: That'd be hilarious.
- 1:03:25Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:03:26Testecleese: We can't offer you any money.
- 1:03:27Testecleese: Your side of the story against losing. I said, well, that never happened. Here's all the video.
- 1:03:32Brian McFadden: That never happened. That's fake news!
- 1:03:40Testecleese: Oh, it's hilarious. I play this game on my phone, and there's this transgender person, very clearly transgender, and it's… I only say that because they shared their picture. But we also had a conversation
- 1:03:55Testecleese: when I got really drunk and pissed off one night about men can't have babies.
- 1:04:00Testecleese: And she's like, oh, you think I'm a man or a woman? I was like, dude, I already know you're a dude. She's like, oh, really? You do? I was like, yeah, actually, go ask… and I mentioned, like, 3 other names of people that…
- 1:04:11Testecleese: We used to be in an alliance together with.
- 1:04:14Testecleese: as leadership, and I was like, yeah, actually, I was like, that's… this person's a dude, right?
- 1:04:20Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:04:21Testecleese: Where I was going with this, it's just…
- 1:04:26Testecleese: Before I was going with this, but do what you wanna do, just don't expect me to think that you're gonna have a baby.
- 1:04:32Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:04:32Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:04:35Testecleese: You're… oh, and especially if you're an adult. If you're an adult, you…
- 1:04:42Testecleese: Do whatever the fuck you want. That's between you and God, not you and me. I may not be your friend, right?
- 1:04:49Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:04:50Testecleese: But I'm not gonna stop you.
- 1:04:53Testecleese: from, I don't know, once you're abusing, like, an animal or a kid, I guess, I suppose, you know?
- 1:05:00Brian McFadden: And everybody else made a big deal about how this federal judge ruled that AI-generated child sex abuse material is protected under the First Amendment. People obviously did not read through
- 1:05:12Brian McFadden: This ruling very well.
- 1:05:14Testecleese: I'd like to hear it then, because, I am torn On the service level.
- 1:05:20Testecleese: about… between First Amendment and what's right and wrong, so please tell me what this ruling actually said.
- 1:05:30Brian McFadden: Well, the First Amendment protects
- 1:05:33Brian McFadden: A person's right to privately possess child sexual abuse material.
- 1:05:38Testecleese: No.
- 1:05:38Brian McFadden: Because it does not depict a real person and it remains in the home. As soon as it leaves the home, that's a whole different story.
- 1:05:48Testecleese: Correct. But the problem is, if you have AI technology that's gonna make you child porn.
- 1:05:55Testecleese: Where does AI get its information from?
- 1:05:58Brian McFadden: it's gonna take the Supreme Court to, change their own ruling.
- 1:06:03Testecleese: Yes, and I agree with First Amendment rights.
- 1:06:07Testecleese: Like, no, for example, if I want to draw a picture of my house, that's my business, right? Now, you and I both may agree it's wrong, but your own home, you're not hurting anyone.
- 1:06:17Testecleese: That's my libertarian coming out.
- 1:06:19Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:06:20Testecleese: But… but…
- 1:06:22Testecleese: if you could say it's AI, not real people, no one actually got hurt, and then distribute this, because that's what.
- 1:06:29Brian McFadden: This doesn't talk about distribution.
- 1:06:32Testecleese: to turn into, though, because of the same argument.
- 1:06:35Brian McFadden: Yeah, but the judge came out and said that distribution's a whole different issue, you know? It's not protected by the First Amendment once it leaves your house.
- 1:06:46Testecleese: Well, here's the thing, though, Brian, is where does AI get its information to make this stuff?
- 1:06:52Brian McFadden: From the internet.
- 1:06:54Testecleese: And what's on the internet that it's getting this information from?
- 1:06:57Brian McFadden: Large language models.
- 1:07:01Testecleese: You mean, kid porn?
- 1:07:04Testecleese: That's where it's getting… it's tough to learn how to make kid porn, isn't it?
- 1:07:09Brian McFadden: I wouldn't know, because I'm not in… I'm not in constant search, it's kid porn.
- 1:07:14Testecleese: No, but that's what AI does. AI goes on the internet and finds everything it can about this.
- 1:07:20Testecleese: And that's its answer. So it goes… so you look up… you try to make kiddie porn with your AI.
- 1:07:27Brian McFadden: I can'.
- 1:07:27Testecleese: Alright.
- 1:07:28Brian McFadden: AI already comes out and says that it's not…
- 1:07:31Testecleese: Yes, because it… because they say it's wrong, right?
- 1:07:34Brian McFadden: Oh, I know it's wrong, I'm not even gonna try it.
- 1:07:36Testecleese: But I'm just saying, if you have an AI that'll do it, what it does is it goes on the internet, and it finds as much of it as it cans, as it can.
- 1:07:44Testecleese: It recreates it.
- 1:07:46Testecleese: So, what it's actually doing is taking a billion images.
- 1:07:50Testecleese: Of a million different kids, and combining them into one, and you're harming more children.
- 1:07:57Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:07:58Testecleese: And I think this is wrong on every level.
- 1:08:01Testecleese: I think that this should be condemned at the utmost, and
- 1:08:06Brian McFadden: Not necessarily… I don't… I don't disagree with you.
- 1:08:09Testecleese: It should be treated just like actually filming a child being butt-raped.
- 1:08:18Testecleese: You know?
- 1:08:20Testecleese: Sorry, man, leave kids alone.
- 1:08:26Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:08:29Testecleese: This is a new thing, too, being kids, you know that, right?
- 1:08:33Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 1:08:35Testecleese: You're not quite boomer, but were your parents Boomers or silent?
- 1:08:40Brian McFadden: They were in their 80s when they passed away.
- 1:08:44Brian McFadden: 44, my dad was born.
- 1:08:46Testecleese: So they were very old boomers, a very young silent then, right?
- 1:08:49Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:08:51Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:08:52Testecleese: Alright.
- 1:08:59Testecleese: Interesting stuff the way generations work, huh?
- 1:09:05Testecleese: Funny thing… The Zennials, as they call them now. They used to be Geriatric Millennials.
- 1:09:13Testecleese: They get a special name. They were half Gen X, half Millennial, like me, right?
- 1:09:21Testecleese: Like, I can still tune… A manual radio?
- 1:09:26Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 1:09:28Testecleese: But the same… or… or I… here's even more fun. I can take the needle from a record player.
- 1:09:35Testecleese: and pick Trek 3. How's that?
- 1:09:38Brian McFadden: Right, right.
- 1:09:39Testecleese: And not… and not jump into the middle of a song, or the end of one.
- 1:09:43Brian McFadden: Yeah, because you can see the blank space on the album.
- 1:09:45Testecleese: We'll be exactly how it works, right?
- 1:09:47Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:09:51Testecleese: But, my, quote, formative years, 18 to, like, 25, were during the, digital revolution, right?
- 1:10:02Testecleese: Internet.
- 1:10:03Testecleese: became fluent.
- 1:10:05Testecleese: Because that was, like.
- 1:10:07Testecleese: The part of… you learn basic how to survive very early, then you learn how to get ahead.
- 1:10:13Testecleese: It's weird, it's a brain thing.
- 1:10:18Testecleese: it's just, it's weird, Lane, like…
- 1:10:24Testecleese: Like I said, I… I know to use a friggin', number 2 pencil.
- 1:10:29Testecleese: To pull the magnetic tape back into a cassette.
- 1:10:35Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 1:10:36Testecleese: And don't get me wrong, I know you get the internet, but it took you… not even took you longer, but…
- 1:10:44Brian McFadden: I don't have the internet, I used to have dinner… I had dial-up internet.
- 1:10:47Testecleese: Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, I remember, 56K… It's fax machine sound, right?
- 1:10:56Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:10:57Testecleese: We, we did that. Welcome!
- 1:11:00Testecleese: You've got mail!
- 1:11:03Testecleese: But it didn't exist before that. The military created it way before that. That's what's even nuts, even more nuts, is that everyone hates the military, but…
- 1:11:14Testecleese: I say hates the military, not everyone hates the military, that's not true at all.
- 1:11:18Testecleese: The people that hate the fucking country blame the military a lot.
- 1:11:23Testecleese: The military invented the internet.
- 1:11:26Brian McFadden: Right?
- 1:11:27Testecleese: They invented GPS.
- 1:11:30Testecleese: And because it's become… So old, they gave it to us for free.
- 1:11:36Testecleese: It's like, oh, by the way, we've already built this underground network of, cables, you know?
- 1:11:41Testecleese: Just plug your computer in, talk to other people.
- 1:11:46Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:11:50Testecleese: I don't know, man, it's…
- 1:11:56Testecleese: And that's what's crazy, is the mili… the military's government.
- 1:12:02Testecleese: I don't trust the government spending money. It probably costs way more money than it needs to, to make GPS or the internet.
- 1:12:10Testecleese: But because the government tried to do it first.
- 1:12:14Testecleese: it costs more, you know what I mean?
- 1:12:16Brian McFadden: Yep, always does.
- 1:12:18Brian McFadden: So… We got a,
- 1:12:23Brian McFadden: Outrageous growing after a Virginia mom was convicted for letting her 5-year-old walk to a neighborhood park.
- 1:12:29Testecleese: Hmm, no.
- 1:12:31Testecleese: In a gated community.
- 1:12:35Testecleese: I'm not ga- no, seriously, open the article, I believe first paragraph, maybe first sentence, gated community.
- 1:12:41Brian McFadden: Well, what's the outrage, then?
- 1:12:45Testecleese: Because the kid was unattended and might get hurt. Meanwhile, this woman was convicted of letting her fucking kid walk to the neighborhood park, right? Because the kid can't handle it on their own. But this other bitch in Massachusetts.
- 1:12:59Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:12:59Testecleese: FUCKING KILL HER KIDS AND GO HOME!
- 1:13:03Brian McFadden: And this happened in Williamsburg, Virginia, a fairly affluent community in Virginia, too, so…
- 1:13:11Testecleese: Freezy!
- 1:13:12Testecleese: Whaa Williamsville, Virginia, you're right. There's a shit ton of money, especially historic areas, right?
- 1:13:20Brian McFadden: Yeah,
- 1:13:21Testecleese: It's a fucking ghetto, and you know it.
- 1:13:25Testecleese: You've been there, right?
- 1:13:28Testecleese: You've been there.
- 1:13:29Testecleese: Have you?
- 1:13:31Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 1:13:32Testecleese: It's a… it's a ghetto.
- 1:13:35Testecleese: These rich white people just getting robbed from all the time, going, oh, it's part of the fucking community!
- 1:13:42Testecleese: Like…
- 1:13:43Testecleese: Dear God! And finally, they give up a move out, and some other fucking rich white family moves in, you know?
- 1:13:49Brian McFadden: He was studying for the bar.
- 1:13:51Brian McFadden: And now that she's, been found guilty of child abuse, it has a criminal record.
- 1:14:00Brian McFadden: She probably can't even be a lawyer anymore.
- 1:14:04Testecleese: That's a… I'm… I'm not sure how that works, honestly. The Bar Association is separate from states, correct?
- 1:14:11Brian McFadden: Yes, it is.
- 1:14:12Testecleese: But they have to follow state law.
- 1:14:16Testecleese: So, you can be… So if you disbarred, it's worse. Is that state by state, or the entire…
- 1:14:24Brian McFadden: It's state by state.
- 1:14:26Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:14:28Testecleese: So you could still go and…
- 1:14:31Testecleese: take the test or whatever in Nevada and practice law.
- 1:14:36Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:14:37Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:14:38Brian McFadden: And the tweets that people are putting on here is like…
- 1:14:42Brian McFadden: The kid walked half a mile in a gated community, came home, pond, not a crime scene.
- 1:14:48Testecleese: Yeah, exactly, exactly.
- 1:14:49Brian McFadden: He was a mom with 5 kids studying for the bar, 8 months pregnant.
- 1:14:53Brian McFadden: And she's got the charge contributing to the delinquency of my hair.
- 1:14:58Testecleese: Hold on, how many kids does she have?
- 1:15:00Brian McFadden: Says 5.
- 1:15:01Testecleese: Five… she… and she's… and she's pregnant again.
- 1:15:06Testecleese: Right?
- 1:15:07Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:15:07Testecleese: pregnant?
- 1:15:08Testecleese: And she's studying for the bar.
- 1:15:10Brian McFadden: That's pretty, pretty impressive.
- 1:15:13Testecleese: No.
- 1:15:13Brian McFadden: my book.
- 1:15:14Testecleese: This… this woman's a fucking hero, and I…
- 1:15:18Testecleese: If the law says this is against the law, I understand that. I'm just saying, this woman's a goddamn hero.
- 1:15:23Brian McFadden: It was a gated community.
- 1:15:26Testecleese: Oh, well, here's the big issue, Brian, is there's a water… it was to the pond, it was to the water feature.
- 1:15:31Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 1:15:33Testecleese: And, what, the kid was 5?
- 1:15:35Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:15:36Testecleese: What age do you trust a child to walk into the water, a natural water feature on their own?
- 1:15:43Testecleese: And I think that.
- 1:15:44Brian McFadden: Depends on how often they're around that water.
- 1:15:48Testecleese: That's very true. Bro, we know this kid knew exactly everything.
- 1:15:52Testecleese: But this woman got convicted. Not just brought up on charges, but convicted.
- 1:15:57Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:15:59Testecleese: Meanwhile, this other one put exercise bands around her fucking child's necks.
- 1:16:04Brian McFadden: Yo.
- 1:16:04Testecleese: And… and one ran away, and she chased him down and killed him, too.
- 1:16:10Brian McFadden: And she's, out.
- 1:16:12Testecleese: No, she's not out. She's back in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, in the psych ward, until they decide what's gonna happen next. But my biggest issue with this, Brian…
- 1:16:24Brian McFadden: How can you not get jurors to realize…
- 1:16:28Testecleese: Already happened.
- 1:16:29Brian McFadden: Yeah, I know, because the juror said they couldn't come to a unanimous decision.
- 1:16:33Testecleese: It was, oh, shit.
- 1:16:36Testecleese: You know there's one… one holdout?
- 1:16:39Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:16:40Testecleese: You know that one holdout was guilty?
- 1:16:44Brian McFadden: That's even worse.
- 1:16:46Testecleese: I'm not kidding you.
- 1:16:48Brian McFadden: Fucking insane.
- 1:16:50Testecleese: Yeah,
- 1:16:53Testecleese: I just can't imagine being a kid watching a video in 5 years of your mom saying, I could have done the same thing. You know what I mean?
- 1:17:07Brian McFadden: And Joe Rogan came out and said, this is utterly ridiculous, with all the Lindsey Clancy supporters that were at this trial.
- 1:17:17Testecleese: Yeah, they're… and these TikTok fucking… detectives. Oh, I mapped out the crime scene. It's like, bitch, you have no… you're in fucking Oklahoma. Trust me, you have no idea what happened.
- 1:17:31Brian McFadden: You did a Google search, and you did Google Maps, and all that, that ain't the same as actually being there, and…
- 1:17:38Testecleese: Oh, and according to most of these models, when the husband did it.
- 1:17:42Testecleese: He had to run a 4-minute mile, right?
- 1:17:46Brian McFadden: Yeah, good luck with that. I don't run a… I don't run a 4-minute… 0.1K anymore.
- 1:17:52Testecleese: 4 million miles of world record, Brian.
- 1:17:54Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 1:17:56Testecleese: Ran a 4-minute mile, came back, Killed his kids.
- 1:18:02Testecleese: On the fu- made a phone call to his wife, who he managed to keep calm on the phone.
- 1:18:08Testecleese: Because there's a phone call while she was killing her kids, you know that, right?
- 1:18:13Brian McFadden: Oh, no, I didn't know that.
- 1:18:14Testecleese: There was a phone call in the middle of it.
- 1:18:19Testecleese: And he suspected nothing. But then, check this out.
- 1:18:23Testecleese: Finished killing his kids, cut his wife wrist, threw out the window, then ran a 4-minute mile back. That's stupid.
- 1:18:32Brian McFadden: It is true.
- 1:18:33Brian McFadden: gain.
- 1:18:35Testecleese: And I was like, if the motherfucker can run two 4-minute miles in 20 minutes.
- 1:18:41Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:18:42Testecleese: You should be a goddamn Olympic athlete, right?
- 1:18:45Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:18:45Testecleese: And this is their argument.
- 1:18:47Testecleese: Because they… thing is, they have no idea how far a mile is.
- 1:18:51Brian McFadden: No.
- 1:18:53Brian McFadden: I'm sure nobody on TikTok is… these TikTok people have run a mile any time recently.
- 1:19:01Testecleese: Check this out. Puff my chest.
- 1:19:06Testecleese: I'm not sure what my best mile time ever was.
- 1:19:10Testecleese: But… I did once run a 6-minute, 3-second, mile and a half.
- 1:19:18Brian McFadden: Nice.
- 1:19:20Testecleese: No, no, not 6, I'm sorry, 9 minutes.
- 1:19:23Brian McFadden: PRT.
- 1:19:24Testecleese: mile and a half.
- 1:19:26Testecleese: Assuming I kept a con… yeah, exactly, PRT. Assuming I kept a straight pace and didn't speed up or slow down, it was, like, a 6-minute mile.
- 1:19:37Testecleese: I was like, that's not bad, you know?
- 1:19:40Brian McFadden: No, not bad at all.
- 1:19:45Testecleese: And like I said, no one knows what a mile is.
- 1:19:47Brian McFadden: -
- 1:19:49Brian McFadden: Let alone a kilometer.
- 1:19:52Testecleese: Kalama's a thousand meters.
- 1:19:57Brian McFadden: That doesn't mean…
- 1:19:58Testecleese: Come on.
- 1:19:58Brian McFadden: American knows what it is.
- 1:20:00Testecleese: Wow… .67 miles.
- 1:20:05Testecleese: A mile is 5,280 feet.
- 1:20:09Testecleese: You know what I mean? It's like, what a goofy measurement, right?
- 1:20:13Testecleese: This is empirical system. By the way, is there a fucking Australian who can bring up the empirical system? I wanna give him shit that these assholes.
- 1:20:21Brian McFadden: Working too hard.
- 1:20:23Brian McFadden: They don't even use it anymore.
- 1:20:26Brian McFadden: They're on mute.
- 1:20:26Testecleese: The problem is, they do.
- 1:20:29Testecleese: And they also use metric, and I guess they also fucking use stones.
- 1:20:36Testecleese: Like, well, when are we gonna start measuring horses by hands again, you know what I mean?
- 1:20:40Brian McFadden: You know what I mean?
- 1:20:41Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:20:44Testecleese: Oh, it's interesting, though, that somehow the American measurement system
- 1:20:50Testecleese: Which is separate from most of the world. Like, Fahrenheit to be included.
- 1:20:58Testecleese: Has held out so long.
- 1:21:00Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:21:00Testecleese: We tried to go magic, and so didn't, like…
- 1:21:05Testecleese: Australia and Canada, but they still do miles, they still measure in feet.
- 1:21:11Testecleese: But they measured meters, too. I was like, why would you do both? Pick one!
- 1:21:15Brian McFadden: Yeah. They can't. They can't choose. They can't decide.
- 1:21:20Testecleese: Do I want to look at a sign and try to convert kilometers to miles an hour, or other way around, or…
- 1:21:27Testecleese: Or have both sides, or just, fuck, this is what we do, miles an hour, you know?
- 1:21:33Brian McFadden: So what about this Nashville police officer that got decommissioned after shooting a man with a sword?
- 1:21:40Testecleese: Okay, I just… I guess.
- 1:21:45Brian McFadden: Feared for his life?
- 1:21:46Testecleese: Hold on.
- 1:21:47Testecleese: delay us for a minute, I'm going to get some ice cubes, because we're gonna have a fun conversation about this, in particular concerning the title of the topic I put in there. I'm sure you're noticing that it doesn't say idiot, right?
- 1:21:59Brian McFadden: I know what it says.
- 1:22:01Brian McFadden: As I see, idiot.
- 1:22:06Brian McFadden: Yeah, so basically, we got this guy…
- 1:22:10Brian McFadden: Oh, I can't read it unless I pay.
- 1:22:14Testecleese: Well, so what? This, what was it, Tennessee, was it?
- 1:22:18Brian McFadden: Nashville.
- 1:22:19Testecleese: Yeah, Tennessee.
- 1:22:21Testecleese: Crazy asshole out on the side of the road with fucking swords, right?
- 1:22:28Brian McFadden: Yep, I know somebody else that does that, too.
- 1:22:34Brian McFadden: I think that's why you're attracted to this article.
- 1:22:38Testecleese: Oh, it happened again, but it was different.
- 1:22:40Brian McFadden: Yeah, way different, way different. Somebody didn't get all the training that the Hampton Police got.
- 1:22:52Testecleese: Okay, okay, I'm sorry.
- 1:22:56Testecleese: This guy, he was being aggressive with swords, right?
- 1:23:00Brian McFadden: Okay. You weren't being aggressive, you just had them on your bag.
- 1:23:04Testecleese: I had him sheathed. That… that's why the cop came up and talked to me.
- 1:23:09Testecleese: No, granted, he drew his gun, which I had… that's what made me call… The chief.
- 1:23:16Testecleese: Was he… jumped out of an unmarked car and drew his gun on me.
- 1:23:20Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:23:21Testecleese: And I was like, I… I don't know who this asshole is. Oh, I'm sorry, no, I'm sorry, he was in a marked car, but in a sweatsuit, and drew a gun on me.
- 1:23:29Brian McFadden: Oh, sweatsuit. Coming home, he was just coming from the gym.
- 1:23:33Testecleese: No, no, that's actually exactly what he said, was he… they didn't bring the cars home because, you know, et cetera, et cetera.
- 1:23:41Testecleese: And he came from the gym, and I was like, dude, you jumped out of a cop car with a… and pointed a gun at me for doing something I'm allowed to do. He goes, oh yeah, it's that easy to steal a cop car. And then I listed 3 different safety precautions to stop you from stealing a cop car, because I went to school for automotive.
- 1:23:59Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:24:00Testecleese: And he goes, well, okay, one of those three you mentioned would actually put my car in drive. I was like, so what? Stop me from doing the same goddamn thing and saying I'm a cop, you know?
- 1:24:11Testecleese: Well, that would be illegal! It's like.
- 1:24:14Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 1:24:16Brian McFadden: You proved my point.
- 1:24:19Testecleese: But yeah, no, for real, that man could have easily shot me, couldn't he?
- 1:24:23Brian McFadden: Yo.
- 1:24:25Testecleese: And what would have happened? Crazy asshole on the street with 9 swords, shot to death, right?
- 1:24:31Brian McFadden: Yep, yep.
- 1:24:35Testecleese: Did I start a trend, Brian?
- 1:24:37Brian McFadden: I hope not.
- 1:24:40Testecleese: No, now they're getting shot, right?
- 1:24:43Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:24:44Testecleese: Shit, I know… you and I talk, and… Because…
- 1:24:49Testecleese: You remember this actually happened, don't you.
- 1:24:52Brian McFadden: I do, I do remember, yeah.
- 1:24:54Testecleese: Like, yeah, no, no, they're like, yeah, you're just in bed for, like, 2 weeks!
- 1:25:01Testecleese: I just… It's a… what's… like I said, all my blades were in sheaths.
- 1:25:11Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:25:12Testecleese: And I held up bigger signs that, you know, something along the lines of, like, don't give up your guns, because there are blades everywhere, or something like that, you know what I mean.
- 1:25:19Brian McFadden: Right? Huh.
- 1:25:21Testecleese: And that was the whole point of the protest, because they were trying to take away guns in Virginia.
- 1:25:25Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:25:26Testecleese: And what happened, Brian?
- 1:25:29Brian McFadden: They're in the process of taking away guns in Virginia.
- 1:25:35Testecleese: But now that…
- 1:25:35Brian McFadden: We're in power, and bye-bye guns.
- 1:25:37Testecleese: Dude, dude, I… Let me go nuts here.
- 1:25:42Testecleese: I… on my person… I had dual… Roman short swords, right?
- 1:25:51Testecleese: a machete?
- 1:25:55Testecleese: What do they call that? What's the big, Claymore?
- 1:25:59Testecleese: the giant… Broadsword, right?
- 1:26:03Brian McFadden: Any more mines?
- 1:26:05Testecleese: No, no, no, not mine, it's our Claymore sword.
- 1:26:09Testecleese: Not directional mind, but the… actually, that's probably what it's named after, honestly. Claymore's sword is a two-handed sword.
- 1:26:16Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 1:26:18Testecleese: Like, it… and it goes… doesn't go through armor, just the blunt force of all that weight, you know what I mean?
- 1:26:26Testecleese: Well, it's like a 6'4"… Scottish sword.
- 1:26:31Testecleese: I'm not even kidding you, you could… if you just want shits and giggles, look it up, and maybe get a fun image.
- 1:26:37Testecleese: But they're just giant, giant, heavy swords. They're a two-handed sword, but the idea was you didn't sword fight, you swung it down like a club.
- 1:26:49Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 1:26:52Testecleese: But yeah, I had a Claymore.
- 1:26:54Testecleese: I had two, Roman short swords, I had 2 katanas, and a machete, oh, and a bowie knife on me.
- 1:27:02Testecleese: With a big sign that said, don't give up on guns, because then you can't stop me.
- 1:27:08Testecleese: And… I'm sure you understand the argument I was trying to make.
- 1:27:14Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:27:15Testecleese: But apparently, a bunch of people saw it as… as,
- 1:27:21Testecleese: Try, stop me from getting into your house.
- 1:27:23Testecleese: But I literally said, don't give up your guns, because you could easily keep me out, you know?
- 1:27:31Testecleese: Yeah, but then… and then, the state police ended up having a,
- 1:27:36Testecleese: training meeting, I guess, or maybe it wasn't state, maybe… yeah, it must have been state.
- 1:27:41Testecleese: Training meeting with a local government about their police forcing
- 1:27:47Testecleese: Man wasn't breaking any laws, he abided by everything, gave you identification.
- 1:27:56Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:27:57Testecleese: You can't just point guns at people and say you're a bad person because you don't like their politics. Like, he didn't break a single goddamn law, you know? Yeah.
- 1:28:07Testecleese: Gee, oh my god, Brian, you know how long ago that was?
- 1:28:10Brian McFadden: 10 years.
- 1:28:12Testecleese: Oh, at least.
- 1:28:15Testecleese: Wow.
- 1:28:16Testecleese: Yeah, no, yeah, at least I was still living in Hampton.
- 1:28:19Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:28:21Testecleese: Dude, I could've got shot that day.
- 1:28:23Brian McFadden: Or could've.
- 1:28:28Testecleese: how do I get my story out there, so that people understand this shit is going on? Because I keep hearing about these my story bullshit.
- 1:28:37Testecleese: This is a real thing. This is a real gun rights… a real gun rights thing, and weapons rights thing, that is going on right now in the government.
- 1:28:46Brian McFadden: Oh, we also have the NYPD shooting people.
- 1:28:50Brian McFadden: Because she was accused of stabbing two people in Times Square.
- 1:28:53Testecleese: Well, she killed one woman.
- 1:28:57Testecleese: Who had just had a baby.
- 1:28:59Testecleese: And, well, a couple… two months ago, was, like, her first day going back to work as a VP of,
- 1:29:08Brian McFadden: Bank of America.
- 1:29:11Testecleese: And then because of that, people are like, oh, good, she died.
- 1:29:15Testecleese: But, like…
- 1:29:17Brian McFadden: They didn't even know the person.
- 1:29:19Testecleese: What did she do that was so offensive?
- 1:29:22Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:29:23Testecleese: Yeah, she didn't know, she just stabbed someone… I don't understand this… Especially the bank thing.
- 1:29:33Testecleese: If you don't fucking like banks, don't keep your money in banks.
- 1:29:36Brian McFadden: Right, you don't have to, isn't that a requirement?
- 1:29:39Testecleese: I know it sounds… that's what we do. Brian, how long have I been promoting keeping precious metals instead? Because it works better than a bank.
- 1:29:48Brian McFadden: Forever.
- 1:29:50Testecleese: How much money did I make off of selling silver recently?
- 1:29:54Brian McFadden: A little bit.
- 1:29:57Testecleese: Yes.
- 1:29:58Brian McFadden: You know, we can't disclose that information.
- 1:30:02Testecleese: Yeah, I remember.
- 1:30:02Brian McFadden: They want their share, and you're not giving it to them.
- 1:30:10Testecleese: a mortgage for the year, plus extra.
- 1:30:14Testecleese: From selling silver.
- 1:30:17Testecleese: And you know what? Silver's back down to, like, 50 bucks an ounce. I'm getting ready to buy more. I sold at $85 an ounce, and…
- 1:30:25Testecleese: Brian, didn't I bring it up to you when it was $25 an ounce? Or actually, I think $13 was the first.
- 1:30:32Brian McFadden: water.
- 1:30:33Testecleese: at 25.
- 1:30:34Brian McFadden: I lost it again, so… He got lost.
- 1:30:38Testecleese: Do you see what?
- 1:30:38Brian McFadden: The move, so it's floating around here someplace.
- 1:30:41Testecleese: It's funny, because I remember you showed it to me, I got that ounce, I know I found it!
- 1:30:45Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, I haven't found it again, since I moved again.
- 1:30:48Testecleese: prompts.
- 1:30:49Brian McFadden: It's gonna turn up eventually.
- 1:30:51Testecleese: Hey, just think of it this way, every time there's a major dump is the time to buy.
- 1:30:56Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:30:57Testecleese: With metal, with metal.
- 1:31:00Testecleese: When there's a massive dump on gold.
- 1:31:03Testecleese: Like, a week later, or 3 days later, is the best time to buy, because everyone sold, and the price dropped out, you know?
- 1:31:16Testecleese: True.
- 1:31:17Testecleese: I… I can't figure out peak time to sell.
- 1:31:21Testecleese: But I've…
- 1:31:22Testecleese: I did alright. Like I said, I bought that silver at $35 an ounce, I sold it at $58.
- 1:31:27Testecleese: And it was like… Okay.
- 1:31:33Testecleese: A couple pounds?
- 1:31:38Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:31:38Testecleese: This is why I'm excited about Texas doing the silver currency thing. This… hey, hey, man, what do you think I'll write the same letter to, Governor Morrissey? You think he'll… he'll actually read it, or I'll get a formal letter?
- 1:31:51Brian McFadden: Form letter.
- 1:31:52Testecleese: You think? Well, it doesn't mean he won't read it, though, does it?
- 1:31:56Brian McFadden: No, but I doubt it.
- 1:31:58Testecleese: No, it better don't get filtered, huh?
- 1:32:00Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:32:01Testecleese: what if I point out other states that have done it? And… see, that's the thing, is when you start pointing…
- 1:32:08Testecleese: At real things, people get… Bored.
- 1:32:13Testecleese: Now, I'm sure you've noticed that.
- 1:32:16Brian McFadden: Yep, yep. So we got this Republican primary that just happened in Missouri, And, the… nominee?
- 1:32:26Testecleese: You're gonna go to jail.
- 1:32:28Brian McFadden: Has been federally charged with conspiracy to distribute drugs in an alleged attempt to frame his primary opponent, but the person that he framed lost the primary by 33 votes.
- 1:32:40Brian McFadden: He won.
- 1:32:43Testecleese: Yeah, but if he's gonna go to… well, that's not true. Depending on the state, he might be able to serve from prison, right?
- 1:32:51Testecleese: Just like POTUS, right?
- 1:32:55Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:32:56Testecleese: Technically, POTUS can serve from prison, as long as it's not a, I believe, a felony, right?
- 1:33:03Brian McFadden: Well, this is a federal charge.
- 1:33:06Brian McFadden: And, you know, rich people in federal charges typically tend to be able to find ways to negotiate themselves out of these charges.
- 1:33:15Brian McFadden: Remember, words do have… we still have the two-tiered justice system here in America.
- 1:33:21Brian McFadden: You got the money?
- 1:33:23Brian McFadden: 9 times out of 10, you can get out of the crime. Just look at, Senator Kennedy while he was still alive.
- 1:33:31Testecleese: Oh, give me an example, please, Brian.
- 1:33:33Brian McFadden: Well, well, well, he had his date that he drove his… drunk-drived his car on all
- 1:33:40Brian McFadden: And she didn't survive, but he did, and nothing ever happened to him.
- 1:33:44Testecleese: Not just off a bridge, off a bridge into a river, right?
- 1:33:47Brian McFadden: Right!
- 1:33:49Testecleese: He got out… She drowned, and you became a senator.
- 1:33:55Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:33:56Testecleese: I don't know, man.
- 1:33:59Testecleese: Is there a Kennedy curse for real?
- 1:34:02Brian McFadden: Apparently not to him.
- 1:34:05Testecleese: No, no, no, the curse doesn't always apply to you. Maybe you're cursed in that everyone around you is cursed, and that you will never get close to anyone. I'm just saying that I don't believe in curses, I'm Catholic.
- 1:34:17Brian McFadden: Right, I don't either.
- 1:34:19Testecleese: I don't understand everything. Maybe it is God, but…
- 1:34:24Testecleese: We only call it a curse, I don't know, right?
- 1:34:27Testecleese: Like, I keep getting into a fight with my wife, because she swears to…
- 1:34:31Testecleese: She swears to Allah. God, Jesus.
- 1:34:36Testecleese: Yahweh, Jehovah, that our house is haunted.
- 1:34:43Testecleese: And I'm like, no, it's not.
- 1:34:45Testecleese: We don't believe in ghosts. There's no such thing as ghosts.
- 1:34:50Testecleese: I would assume that God made a mistake and left the soul behind, you know?
- 1:34:57Brian McFadden: But doesn't the Catholic Church do exorcisms?
- 1:35:01Testecleese: That's not a God mistake, that is the devil and the demons.
- 1:35:06Testecleese: moving in.
- 1:35:07Testecleese: No, exorcism is excising, demonic souls. Yeah, excising demons from humans. And yes, the Catholic Church does… still does do it.
- 1:35:18Testecleese: But it's very, very unconscious.
- 1:35:20Brian McFadden: For rare air, yeah.
- 1:35:23Testecleese: Hey!
- 1:35:24Testecleese: How is this?
- 1:35:26Testecleese: This bitch, Lizzie Clancy, was in a… Qu… Duxbury.
- 1:35:34Testecleese: massive
- 1:35:34Testecleese: Like I said, town next to where I grew up, same town I moved back to where my mother died. Right. This happened when I lived in Massachusetts.
- 1:35:44Brian McFadden: You didn't even know about it then.
- 1:35:46Testecleese: I… that's what pisses me off.
- 1:35:49Brian McFadden: They swept it under the rug.
- 1:35:51Testecleese: Why did it not hit the news?
- 1:35:53Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 1:36:00Testecleese: Yeah, just, it… really surprised me that I didn't see that living there. Maybe you had been watching cable?
- 1:36:09Testecleese: I would've seen it, you know what I mean?
- 1:36:14Testecleese: But, like, I don't know. Like, you would have thought that someone being accused of murdering their own three children in the town next to you
- 1:36:22Testecleese: I'm not even the town next to you, okay, that would be cable, but it would still have shown up on the internet.
- 1:36:28Brian McFadden: Yeah, exactly,
- 1:36:31Testecleese: And what gets me is, they're saying she shouldn't go to jail because she's crazy, right? Right. Like, okay. The problem is, she said she was crazy just long enough to kill her kids, and now she's not crazy.
- 1:36:44Testecleese: So even if we put her in a nuthouse, let's say…
- 1:36:48Testecleese: Next trial, not guilty, insanity, right?
- 1:36:51Brian McFadden: Right,
- 1:36:53Testecleese: Alright.
- 1:36:54Testecleese: I'm actually willing to accept that argument, I'm not willing to accept…
- 1:36:58Testecleese: what it means. The thing is, she has to spend at least 6 months at a mental facility. Right now she's in Tewksbury, probably the same place.
- 1:37:07Testecleese: T-e-w-k-s-b-u-r-r-y, by the way, Tewksbury.
- 1:37:14Testecleese: Interesting spelling, right?
- 1:37:16Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:37:19Testecleese: A minimum of 6 months assessment, and then she only needs 2 state
- 1:37:24Testecleese: Certified doctors to say she's no longer a harm to herself.
- 1:37:29Brian McFadden: Then she'll be retried?
- 1:37:30Testecleese: No, no. No.
- 1:37:34Testecleese: This is assuming not guilty by insanity, she won't be retried, then she's free to go home.
- 1:37:41Brian McFadden: Hmm.
- 1:37:43Brian McFadden: Does she have a home?
- 1:37:48Testecleese: She's raised over a million dollars on GoFundMe, so yeah.
- 1:37:54Brian McFadden: Well, I would assume her husband's gonna divorce her during this whole process.
- 1:37:58Testecleese: This already… this happened, he's already remarried.
- 1:38:01Brian McFadden: Yep, nice.
- 1:38:03Testecleese: This was 3 years ago, Brian.
- 1:38:08Brian McFadden: The wheels adjust the turn very slowly, and sometimes they go in reverse.
- 1:38:12Testecleese: Yeah, the squatters, you know, it's…
- 1:38:16Testecleese: I was excited about the squatter's rules here in West Virginia, and I moved in.
- 1:38:22Testecleese: He's like, I can go on vacation, I don't have to worry about squatters. 10 years, right?
- 1:38:27Testecleese: But now I'm looking at some of these properties that are abandoned for 20 years.
- 1:38:31Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:38:32Testecleese: I'm like, shit, if it did… I…
- 1:38:37Testecleese: It's your… I have to get mail there for 10 years to say it's mine if no one else wants it. It's like… that seems… that seems like too long, you know what I mean? If it's completely abandoned, it's just rotting away.
- 1:38:50Testecleese: I have found out that there are ways to get around these laws with… you're actually.
- 1:38:57Brian McFadden: Well, there's a whole show on TLC or Discovery Channel.
- 1:39:00Testecleese: We're…
- 1:39:01Brian McFadden: This guy goes into the… and he gets the landlord to sign over rights where he can… like, power of attorney, and he goes in there and basically moves in with the squatters, and makes it so unbearable living there that they eventually leave on their own.
- 1:39:19Testecleese: Oh, I actually have a lease, they don't, I can…
- 1:39:22Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah,
- 1:39:24Testecleese: Oh, no shit!
- 1:39:26Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:39:27Testecleese: Where is this? Send it to me, it'll be fun, I wanna watch this.
- 1:39:30Brian McFadden: Did they make it…
- 1:39:31Testecleese: They make it so bad that the squatters don't want to be there.
- 1:39:35Brian McFadden: Yeah, they install, like, security cameras in the place, you know, and they wake the squatters up at, like, 6 in the morning, banging loud sounds.
- 1:39:45Testecleese: Yeah.
- 1:39:45Brian McFadden: Playing loud music.
- 1:39:47Testecleese: Airhorn at 6 AM.
- 1:39:48Brian McFadden: Oh, yup, yup.
- 1:39:51Testecleese: As soon as it's not against the law to make a loud noise, you do, right?
- 1:39:55Brian McFadden: Exactly, yup.
- 1:39:59Brian McFadden: You don't want me to brew this one? That's fine.
- 1:40:01Testecleese: No, no, no, no, play, what is it? Squad has wreak havoc on DC… OH!
- 1:40:06Testecleese: This is, this is… this is a foreign woman.
- 1:40:10Testecleese: She's got homes in many, many nations, I think 4 or 5, right? One building she owns is in DC, I think it's a, 3 or 3 to 5 story…
- 1:40:25Testecleese: Structure that she rents out.
- 1:40:28Testecleese: And the squatters in DC are making her think that it's not worth…
- 1:40:34Brian McFadden: They've lived in her basement apartment…
- 1:40:37Brian McFadden: For 8 months, living rent-free with no consequences.
- 1:40:43Testecleese: See, here's the difference, Brian.
- 1:40:46Testecleese: If I went on vacation… okay, 8 months, I understand how this happens. She owns several properties in, like, 7 countries, right?
- 1:40:56Brian McFadden: She doesn't have a good property manager to keep an eye on her property.
- 1:40:59Testecleese: Exactly. Now, let's say this is my house, right, that I own…
- 1:41:04Testecleese: Let's even say 100 miles away, right?
- 1:41:09Testecleese: I'm probably checking on it at least once a month, right?
- 1:41:15Testecleese: And people that were looking to squat see that.
- 1:41:18Testecleese: And you know what?
- 1:41:20Testecleese: West Virginia, the way it goes, you know, The… the meth addicts.
- 1:41:26Testecleese: I'm not even gonna be,
- 1:41:30Testecleese: assaultive? But I might step out of my truck, walk around, open up the passenger.
- 1:41:37Testecleese: Strapped my shotgun over my shoulder.
- 1:41:41Testecleese: Not aggressive in any way, just here… Carrying my gun, right?
- 1:41:47Testecleese: into my house.
- 1:41:50Testecleese: people probably aren't gonna just move in, if… you know what I mean? If they see that, like, yeah, no fucking way I'm going there, right?
- 1:41:58Testecleese: And she's all over the world.
- 1:42:01Testecleese: And DC, let's be real, DC is one of the poorest places in the country.
- 1:42:06Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:42:08Testecleese: And one of the richest places, at the same time. Go fucking figure, huh?
- 1:42:15Testecleese: Anyway, go ahead and share the video, I'm sorry.
- 1:42:18Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 1:42:21Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Every day, because, you know, I haven't received much help from the police, and the neighbors are tired of it. My tenants actually abandoned the property, so the property right now has been
- 1:42:35Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Abandoned by all the legal tenants after
- 1:42:39Audio shared by Brian McFadden: These squatters came in and created a dangerous drug haven environment.
- 1:42:45Audio shared by Brian McFadden: In the property. See, they have barricaded the, downstairs with…
- 1:42:53Audio shared by Brian McFadden: The trash cans, and then they have, like, Good somat.
- 1:42:58Audio shared by Brian McFadden: bricks in there. They have, a lot of, like, Jordans that are expensive. They have, you know, a Louboutin, like, a…
- 1:43:09Audio shared by Brian McFadden: tennis shoes, they have, like, nice things inside, you know, and they don't pay rent. I mean, they're making money by drug dealing, obviously.
- 1:43:20Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Yeah, here's the problem, Brian.
- 1:43:23Audio shared by Brian McFadden: And it's a… it's an entitled nominal effect, like…
- 1:43:27Audio shared by Brian McFadden: And it's an audacity thing, like, you have the audacity to break in, but then once you break in.
- 1:43:33Audio shared by Brian McFadden: You have the audacity to sit on the steps and antagonize neighbors.
- 1:43:38Audio shared by Brian McFadden: So it's like one negative thing permeates another negative thing?
- 1:43:43Audio shared by Brian McFadden: So you become a fungus in the neighborhood.
- 1:43:46Audio shared by Brian McFadden: with nuclear waste attached to it. You know what I mean? Like, it's just bad. Yeah, I'm not making any income from the property, and as a matter of fact, I'm still being charged, taxes from the DC government. And they also send me, trash violations if they see any trash.
- 1:44:04Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Next to my property, that it doesn't even matter.
- 1:44:07Testecleese: pretty.
- 1:44:07Audio shared by Brian McFadden: I believe that this is predatory… tactics, and I saw.
- 1:44:12Testecleese: Pissed off, though.
- 1:44:13Audio shared by Brian McFadden: She's getting ripped off, right?
- 1:44:16Audio shared by Brian McFadden: have rights. It's a violation of the Fourth Amendment.
- 1:44:19Testecleese: And her being pretty has nothing to do with that.
- 1:44:21Audio shared by Brian McFadden: you no longer have private property. The government decides
- 1:44:25Audio shared by Brian McFadden: What your property is going to be used as.
- 1:44:28Brian McFadden: I hate when they put the music underlay in it.
- 1:44:31Audio shared by Brian McFadden: that…
- 1:44:32Testecleese: No.
- 1:44:32Audio shared by Brian McFadden: that have no.
- 1:44:33Testecleese: And I know why they do it.
- 1:44:34Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Trespassers…
- 1:44:35Brian McFadden: copywriting.
- 1:44:36Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Our tenants.
- 1:44:38Testecleese: No, it's not even… This is stupid music. This is just that background noise.
- 1:44:42Audio shared by Brian McFadden: They're not invitees.
- 1:44:43Testecleese: I'd rather hear the conversation, you know?
- 1:44:45Brian McFadden: Yeah, me too.
- 1:44:46Audio shared by Brian McFadden: they're not…
- 1:44:48Audio shared by Brian McFadden: implied consent to get inside. They are trespassers, and they are also not upholding the laws, because trespassing is a criminal offense. I would say this to the DC government about squatting. You're doing more than just
- 1:45:05Audio shared by Brian McFadden: harming the economic culture. You're putting people in harm's way. Like, you say you want to protect women, you're so against domestic violence, you're so against this and that, but then you turn around and do something like this. As a matter of fact, I've been assaulted, like, a couple of times, and I'm just,
- 1:45:24Testecleese: On our own property.
- 1:45:25Audio shared by Brian McFadden: There's nothing I can do, because…
- 1:45:28Audio shared by Brian McFadden: I'm responsible for the property and for the safety of other tenants, so I had to go there and, you know.
- 1:45:35Audio shared by Brian McFadden: try to deal with the situation, like, this will… this will get you in trouble with the DC government. It's not worth owning the building, right?
- 1:45:44Brian McFadden: No, she might as well sell it, but she can't sell it because they're living it.
- 1:45:47Audio shared by Brian McFadden: dinner.
- 1:45:47Testecleese: Who's gonna buy it?
- 1:45:49Brian McFadden: Everybody.
- 1:45:49Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Two officers told me.
- 1:45:52Testecleese: What is your news.
- 1:45:52Brian McFadden: I guess she's, maybe she's better off just letting her…
- 1:45:55Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Because they are tenants.
- 1:45:57Brian McFadden: Taking a loss on it, just giving it to the fuckin' D.C. government to deal with. Think they'd get the platters out?
- 1:46:03Audio shared by Brian McFadden: That's their thing.
- 1:46:04Brian McFadden: They own the building?
- 1:46:05Audio shared by Brian McFadden: The problem is that they're doing meth, so the whole building.
- 1:46:08Testecleese: The problem is, you didn't give it to DC, and it's not private anymore.
- 1:46:12Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Including third world countries, but it seems to me that… It may get worse. …in a fourth world country in DC. I've never seen something like it.
- 1:46:21Testecleese: Fourth World.
- 1:46:22Audio shared by Brian McFadden: responsibility for… for what goes on.
- 1:46:26Brian McFadden: I'm done.
- 1:46:27Testecleese: No, she grew up in a third world country, and DC seems like a fourth world.
- 1:46:32Brian McFadden: Yeah, it seems worse than the country she grew up in. It's telling you something there.
- 1:46:38Testecleese: Oh, DC's a fucking mess, and you know it's disgusting.
- 1:46:42Testecleese: Yeah, well…
- 1:46:43Brian McFadden: I'm run by Democrats for, like, the last 100 years, so…
- 1:46:46Testecleese: Yeah, it's supposed to be the safest place on the planet, but there's a inch and a half bulletproof blast at 7-Eleven, right?
- 1:46:53Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:46:58Testecleese: Where we going? How is Democratic Canada called for destroying the American way of life?
- 1:47:06Testecleese: Oh.
- 1:47:07Testecleese: I remember reading this article, Oh, this is the… the young kid.
- 1:47:13Testecleese: with a goofy square head. Not even square jaw, square head. William Lawrence, he's, Hassan Piker, super fan, by the way.
- 1:47:23Brian McFadden: Okay, great.
- 1:47:24Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, exactly. By the way, Brian, I'm glad you signed a…
- 1:47:31Testecleese: How long was I bringing a Bonsai?
- 1:47:34Testecleese: Before it became news.
- 1:47:36Brian McFadden: last week.
- 1:47:37Testecleese: Oh, oh, last week? Okay, okay.
- 1:47:42Testecleese: But he wants to…
- 1:47:44Testecleese: call for… he's calling for destroying for the American way of life, he's a Marxist.
- 1:47:50Testecleese: He actually is an avowed Marxist.
- 1:47:53Brian McFadden: Oh, and he's in Michigan. He's running for… Yes, he's in Michigan.
- 1:47:56Testecleese: in.
- 1:47:59Testecleese: Mark?
- 1:48:01Brian McFadden: Yeah, he's running for his House seat in Michigan.
- 1:48:05Testecleese: I know he is!
- 1:48:10Testecleese: He's an… an avowed communist. He was one of Marxist…
- 1:48:16Testecleese: Chat, or whatever, not chat.
- 1:48:19Testecleese: Podcast?
- 1:48:21Brian McFadden: Podcast. It's probably more YouTube, it's a video podcast, so it's not really a real podcast, it's a YouTube thing.
- 1:48:28Testecleese: That's fine.
- 1:48:31Testecleese: Even you and me, if he came on here and started spotting fucking communism…
- 1:48:36Testecleese: Here's a thing people don't understand.
- 1:48:41Testecleese: Communism is illegal in the United States.
- 1:48:46Testecleese: Brian, do you know that?
- 1:48:48Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:48:50Testecleese: Get your keyboard clickers ready.
- 1:48:55Testecleese: Alright?
- 1:48:56Testecleese: Look up Communist Control Act.
- 1:48:59Testecleese: I'm pretty sure McCarthy was on the council.
- 1:49:02Brian McFadden: I'm sure he was.
- 1:49:06Testecleese: You are actually allowed to discriminate against communists.
- 1:49:13Testecleese: You're allowed to say, no, I won't do business with you, you're a communist.
- 1:49:18Testecleese: Without breaking any civil rights laws.
- 1:49:22Brian McFadden: Oh.
- 1:49:23Testecleese: You've heard it?
- 1:49:24Brian McFadden: The original legislations were later repealed.
- 1:49:27Brian McFadden: But provisions are still codified in the 50 USC Chapter 23, Subchapter 4, including blah blah 841-844, and the current U.S. Code specifically lists sections 842 and 843.
- 1:49:49Testecleese: Yeah, did it tell us what still applies?
- 1:49:52Testecleese: I'm just saying that we literally made communism illegal in this country.
- 1:50:00Testecleese: And… I think it's in Leftovers, maybe, or somewhere else, but…
- 1:50:05Testecleese: They're passing laws to, like, censure a socialism or something?
- 1:50:14Testecleese: Well, I mean, Lenin, the father of socialism, said the end goal of socialism was communism, and we already made communism illegal.
- 1:50:23Brian McFadden: So… Someone can legally be a communist in the U.S,
- 1:50:29Brian McFadden: But the legal line becomes more serious when the organization or individual is involved in intentional efforts to overthrow the U.S. government through force or violence.
- 1:50:40Brian McFadden: If you're asking me…
- 1:50:43Testecleese: Oh, you mean the last 7, 10 years?
- 1:50:46Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:50:50Testecleese: So… who gets his side?
- 1:50:53Testecleese: What's violence?
- 1:50:55Brian McFadden: It's a good question.
- 1:50:58Testecleese: It is a good question, isn't it?
- 1:51:02Testecleese: So, they're, they're allowed to… Hold on. Communism is allowed to take us over through a vote.
- 1:51:10Testecleese: But not through violence, is what you're telling me?
- 1:51:17Brian McFadden: Violence is decided by Congress, who writes the laws and defines what conduct is prohibited, police and prosecutors, a judge, a jury, and appellate courts.
- 1:51:32Testecleese: Well, I mean, I… you and I know what violence is, Brian, come on.
- 1:51:36Testecleese: actually striking someone, right? Your words don't fucking matter, I don't give a shit what anyone says. And there's something here, it's under the women thing that I think we already finished.
- 1:51:50Testecleese: with the XXXY thing.
- 1:51:52Brian McFadden: Yeah, we didn't.
- 1:51:53Testecleese: Shirts?
- 1:51:54Brian McFadden: We skipped over it.
- 1:51:56Testecleese: They called that violence, and they kicked people out of the stadium.
- 1:52:04Brian McFadden: It's… not violence.
- 1:52:06Testecleese: No, it was literally words, and words are not violence. I don't give a shit what anyone says, right? If we can't converse, we're never gonna find common ground, right?
- 1:52:18Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:52:20Testecleese: I don't wanna fight. I don't wanna…
- 1:52:24Testecleese: I don't want to pick up my gun to shoot a person?
- 1:52:28Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 1:52:30Testecleese: That sounds terrible to me.
- 1:52:33Testecleese: Horrible, like… I have to answer to God for that, you know?
- 1:52:41Testecleese: Now, don't get me wrong, you break into my house trying to kill my kids, I am ready to face…
- 1:52:47Testecleese: God.
- 1:52:48Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:52:50Testecleese: But… I don't want a war.
- 1:52:55Testecleese: I just don't understand why. This place is fucking huge. Why can't we even cut pieces off?
- 1:53:03Testecleese: Not even making different countries, but, like… Make a new word.
- 1:53:08Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 1:53:09Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:53:11Testecleese: Like, you know as well as I, Brian, the Republicans need the Democrats.
- 1:53:18Testecleese: Actually, no, they don't.
- 1:53:20Testecleese: The Democrats make good coffee.
- 1:53:22Testecleese: Don't they?
- 1:53:24Brian McFadden: Sometimes.
- 1:53:26Testecleese: Oh, Starbucks.
- 1:53:28Testecleese: But the Democrats need Republicans.
- 1:53:32Testecleese: This is what is getting me, is this… again, those Lindsey Klenza thing is I…
- 1:53:39Testecleese: I am once again considering registering Republican.
- 1:53:47Testecleese: some things, I think, are unacceptable.
- 1:53:53Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:53:55Testecleese: No matter… no matter… no matter the reason.
- 1:53:58Testecleese: And Ace What's Nuts is just saying, like, her hormones, right?
- 1:54:04Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:54:08Testecleese: Okay, you can't handle the hormone dose, so let's pump that into a fucking… 15-year-old boy.
- 1:54:16Brian McFadden: Right, cause they can. They can handle it.
- 1:54:19Testecleese: Oh my god, it should be so much worse, isn't it?
- 1:54:22Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:54:22Testecleese: Going from boy to ultra… just had a baby woman?
- 1:54:27Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:54:32Testecleese: I just…
- 1:54:38Testecleese: Brian, I think… I think you're, average person is retarded.
- 1:54:44Brian McFadden: Probably.
- 1:54:47Testecleese: And where are we going from here? I'm sorry, I'm… I'm dragging this off, we're just…
- 1:54:50Testecleese: I almost said how stupid people are.
- 1:54:53Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:54:57Brian McFadden: Well, we got, I don't know if we talked about this last… I don't know if we… I don't think we did, but California's gonna be the first state to maintain energy-efficient replacement tires.
- 1:55:07Testecleese: Oh, yeah… Okay, you know what this is gonna cost?
- 1:55:16Brian McFadden: Well, they're saying, initially, it's only gonna cost $40 or $50 extra a tire, but…
- 1:55:22Testecleese: That's assuming that the manufacturer has increased.
- 1:55:26Brian McFadden: Two manufacturers have already agreed… love this idea. Goodyear, or not Goodyear.
- 1:55:33Testecleese: Because they're gonna get a shit ton of money!
- 1:55:35Brian McFadden: Only in California?
- 1:55:37Testecleese: Y-okay.
- 1:55:40Brian McFadden: If I guarantee, if not all the manufacturers go with it, they're only gonna make money in California, they're gonna lose a ton of money in the rest of the 49 states.
- 1:55:49Testecleese: Well, here's the thing is, they made weird tire rules in California.
- 1:55:55Brian McFadden: I make ALL weird rules.
- 1:55:57Testecleese: I'm in the mountains of West Virginia.
- 1:56:02Testecleese: Like… I just replaced tires on my, I got a couple of vehicles.
- 1:56:09Testecleese: My, 2015 Malibu, right?
- 1:56:15Testecleese: It took way too long, cost way too much.
- 1:56:20Testecleese: I don't understand why California.
- 1:56:24Brian McFadden: Got another $100 on the tires.
- 1:56:27Testecleese: Man, what are they doing that's different?
- 1:56:31Testecleese: That's the question, right? And go ahead and look it up while I talk. But what is different?
- 1:56:37Testecleese: Is it less rubber?
- 1:56:41Testecleese: Because the rubber is what makes you tireless.
- 1:56:44Brian McFadden: It's supposed to have less friction, it's gonna roll…
- 1:56:46Testecleese: Bless…
- 1:56:47Brian McFadden: It's gonna roll.
- 1:56:48Testecleese: Oh my god!
- 1:56:48Brian McFadden: We're on the pavement, so it's gonna be wood for fuel.
- 1:56:52Testecleese: Less friction. Friction is what makes you stick to the road.
- 1:56:56Brian McFadden: They're saying that gasoline savings in Phase 1 is gonna be…
- 1:57:01Testecleese: The whole range.
- 1:57:02Brian McFadden: $10?
- 1:57:04Brian McFadden: And then, in Phase 2, it's gonna save $179… $179 in gasoline savings over the tire's life.
- 1:57:15Brian McFadden: It's tires, like… $40 a year in savings.
- 1:57:18Testecleese: $40 a year in savings for your average…
- 1:57:23Testecleese: Okay, now, what about, it specifically said that it's not…
- 1:57:30Testecleese: It sounds like these tires are, ready for hydroplaning.
- 1:57:36Brian McFadden: That's what it sounds like to me.
- 1:57:38Testecleese: And I don't know if anyone knows what hydroplaning is. It's not… it's not…
- 1:57:44Testecleese: No, even the best ties you could have in the world.
- 1:57:49Testecleese: Once you hit a sheet of water, Right?
- 1:57:53Testecleese: No matter how knobby your attires are. And these guys are saying, less knobby.
- 1:58:00Testecleese: Once you're hydroplaning?
- 1:58:03Testecleese: You lose control.
- 1:58:06Testecleese: I'm telling you, these people.
- 1:58:08Brian McFadden: Goodyear's saying roughly 70% of replacement tires currently sold fail to meet these new standards.
- 1:58:15Testecleese: Yeah, exactly.
- 1:58:17Testecleese: They're gonna buy expensive tires, and they're gonna think they can go do the fucking…
- 1:58:23Testecleese: What was that… what's that crazy hill in California everyone…
- 1:58:27Brian McFadden: Lombardo Street. Lombard Street.
- 1:58:30Testecleese: Lombard, okay.
- 1:58:31Brian McFadden: San Francisco.
- 1:58:33Testecleese: They're all thinking they can do it at 50 miles an hour, right?
- 1:58:38Testecleese: And then it's not gonna stop, because it's not the right tire.
- 1:58:44Testecleese: Here's the problem, is California is trying to do, weather tires.
- 1:58:51Testecleese: No, like, you should buy desert tires, basically, you know what I mean? But then what happens when it rains?
- 1:59:00Testecleese: You know?
- 1:59:02Brian McFadden: Michelin and Bridgestone are supporting the new program. Give me a shit ton of money.
- 1:59:14Testecleese: Yeah, Michelin's gonna make a butt-ton of money, and these other companies, like, we don't want our tires attached to these car wrecks.
- 1:59:21Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:59:25Testecleese: And it's gonna cost you an extra…
- 1:59:27Testecleese: What, what, 30 bucks a tire?
- 1:59:30Brian McFadden: Yeah. To you.
- 1:59:31Testecleese: Probably doing 4 tires at a time, 120 bucks.
- 1:59:35Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:59:38Testecleese: I just did tire replacement, and I got…
- 1:59:43Testecleese: Not a fight, but a, hey, you're wrong argument with my wife.
- 1:59:50Testecleese: I said we need a front-end alignment.
- 1:59:53Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:59:54Testecleese: No, it's only worn out on one side. I was like, that's actually…
- 1:59:58Brian McFadden: That's a warning sign.
- 2:00:00Brian McFadden: alone, man.
- 2:00:02Testecleese: Right?
- 2:00:03Brian McFadden: I like…
- 2:00:04Testecleese: That says, I don't know.
- 2:00:05Brian McFadden: You're.
- 2:00:06Testecleese: No, she goes, well, why is it? Because you're constantly fighting against the curve.
- 2:00:11Testecleese: And she goes, oh… no, she got it, right?
- 2:00:17Testecleese: And then she thought she ordered the alignment with the new tires, but she didn't.
- 2:00:23Brian McFadden: Hmm.
- 2:00:25Testecleese: But the new ties are great.
- 2:00:27Testecleese: Dude, I went tearing down the mountain at 50 miles an hour… 55 miles an hour!
- 2:00:37Testecleese: I'm telling you, Brian, you gotta come out here and see what I do for fun.
- 2:00:44Testecleese: I still gotta go there, and I've been invited to Massachusetts.
- 2:00:49Brian McFadden: Yeah, you're going.
- 2:00:53Testecleese: You think so?
- 2:00:54Brian McFadden: No.
- 2:00:55Testecleese: No, you're gonna find a reason.
- 2:01:00Brian McFadden: I don't think you're going.
- 2:01:02Testecleese: I'd love to see him again, honestly, but…
- 2:01:06Brian McFadden: He can come visit you once in a while.
- 2:01:08Testecleese: while… I invited him for… to a housewarming party, right?
- 2:01:15Testecleese: Couldn't show up.
- 2:01:17Brian McFadden: Too busy.
- 2:01:18Testecleese: Yep.
- 2:01:20Testecleese: And he's thinking, oh, you're not too busy, man. He's like, are you fucking kidding me? I got a wife, I got two kids.
- 2:01:27Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:01:27Testecleese: God.
- 2:01:28Testecleese: House repairs do?
- 2:01:30Testecleese: What are you doing? And he's like, I'm too busy, like, what are you doing? You know? It's like, yeah, I'm repairing a house.
- 2:01:42Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:01:44Testecleese: It frustrates me, man. I… I invited them up more than once.
- 2:01:50Testecleese: Fuck, you came.
- 2:01:52Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:01:53Testecleese: Well, you went, shit, hold on… Quick…
- 2:01:58Testecleese: Quick in my head, picture of the map.
- 2:02:03Testecleese: Hampton. Newfoot, New, same thing as Hampton, right?
- 2:02:07Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:02:08Testecleese: Michigan… Well, you had 6 hours out of your way to get to me?
- 2:02:14Brian McFadden: Something like that. Maybe about 5 and a half, I think.
- 2:02:17Testecleese: Okay.
- 2:02:18Testecleese: Well, first of all, that was an amazing guess, wasn't it?
- 2:02:22Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:02:23Testecleese: But you did it, didn't you?
- 2:02:28Testecleese: It was fun, wasn't it?
- 2:02:30Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 2:02:30Testecleese: And Jesus Christ, how much work was it to, not have double voice.
- 2:02:38Brian McFadden: It took us some time to figure out.
- 2:02:41Testecleese: Fuck, we… too many computers!
- 2:02:49Testecleese: And my microphone wouldn't work, which would have fixed everything, right?
- 2:02:53Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:02:56Testecleese: And by the way, you got all seed type… connectors, that's weird.
- 2:03:01Brian McFadden: That's what Mac is now.
- 2:03:05Testecleese: Yeah, you should… you should actually walk away from Macintosh, honestly.
- 2:03:09Brian McFadden: Never gonna happen.
- 2:03:11Testecleese: You know the garbage, right?
- 2:03:14Brian McFadden: My laptop will last me 10 years. How long will your laptop last with?
- 2:03:20Testecleese: Well, it's been, 15 now.
- 2:03:24Testecleese: So… I don't know how many more, Brian?
- 2:03:31Testecleese: And I probably paid less than you, because it was, hewlett Packard.
- 2:03:41Testecleese: Instead of Apple.
- 2:03:42Brian McFadden: Go.
- 2:03:43Testecleese: I… I paid less money, too.
- 2:03:47Testecleese: Problem is, you don't know how to do anything that's not Apple, because everything Apple has a certain way you do things.
- 2:03:57Testecleese: But I can log into Apple and still do Apple things.
- 2:04:02Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:04:04Testecleese: I was just having an apple is garbage.
- 2:04:07Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 2:04:08Testecleese: Oh, okay, alright. I'm telling you, Apple's garbage, Brian.
- 2:04:15Testecleese: Get some… garbage!
- 2:04:19Testecleese: Sorry, I was trying to do a Sean Stafford thing.
- 2:04:21Brian McFadden: You already started it.
- 2:04:23Testecleese: Yeah, I know. When was the last time you talked to him?
- 2:04:26Brian McFadden: Couple weeks ago, he's coming to Michigan.
- 2:04:28Testecleese: Oh, shit! No kidding, he's coming to Michigan?
- 2:04:32Brian McFadden: For a wedding.
- 2:04:34Testecleese: Who's getting married?
- 2:04:36Brian McFadden: One of his old Navy buddies that he was stationed with in South Carolina.
- 2:04:41Testecleese: Oh, no kidding!
- 2:04:43Testecleese: Well, here's the problem, Ryan. Michigan is 8.
- 2:04:47Testecleese: enormous state.
- 2:04:49Brian McFadden: I know, I know.
- 2:04:50Testecleese: Oh, patch.
- 2:04:51Brian McFadden: I mean, I forgot.
- 2:04:52Testecleese: to Michigan, it's not me near you, like, that's coming to me.
- 2:04:56Brian McFadden: He's coming a couple hours away, and I gotta be gone that weekend, but he's promised to stay an extra day so we can meet up and hang out for a day, so… him and Katie.
- 2:05:06Brian McFadden: So… we'll see if it actually happens. See if I see him while he's here.
- 2:05:11Testecleese: He won't show up.
- 2:05:16Testecleese: 100% honesty, he's gonna make an honest effort, he really is, but he's not gonna put enough effort in, because,
- 2:05:26Testecleese: He got fat and lazy.
- 2:05:30Testecleese: And you know what?
- 2:05:31Testecleese: Show him this when you see him.
- 2:05:36Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:05:38Brian McFadden: So you care about Kevin Sorbo?
- 2:05:41Testecleese: What, does he live in California?
- 2:05:47Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:05:49Testecleese: Yeah. What?
- 2:05:51Testecleese: I got a good laugh because… oh, because Hollywood, Hollywood. Motherfucker hasn't made a Hollywood movie yet.
- 2:05:58Testecleese: years. No.
- 2:06:00Brian McFadden: Still making money off of, Tarzan.
- 2:06:04Testecleese: Okay, not Tarzan, it was, Hercules. Okay. And… and…
- 2:06:10Testecleese: No, he's actually a producer. He's a lifetime producing shit that, Melissa Joan Hart is doing.
- 2:06:19Brian McFadden: He's moving to Florida.
- 2:06:22Testecleese: Yeah, well, why pay the tax, right?
- 2:06:25Testecleese: It's ridiculous.
- 2:06:34Testecleese: And…
- 2:06:36Testecleese: This is what bothers me, Brian. This is why I'm considering running for mayor, and I know it sounds dumb.
- 2:06:43Testecleese: I… I wanna stop taxing the people.
- 2:06:47Testecleese: and Morrissey and Justice already did it. I wanna start marketing West Virginia as tourism.
- 2:06:54Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:06:56Testecleese: Let's be real, that's why everyone comes here, right?
- 2:07:00Brian McFadden: Yeah?
- 2:07:02Testecleese: You ever heard of New River… New River Gorge?
- 2:07:07Testecleese: No. New River Bridge? Okay.
- 2:07:11Testecleese: This… Bridge Day? Brian, go ahead, Brian.
- 2:07:15Testecleese: AI search, whatever, Bridge Day, West Virginia, right? Or WV.
- 2:07:22Testecleese: Red Bull shows up. I'm not kidding you.
- 2:07:27Testecleese: to jump off this bridge in West Virginia on the New River Gorge. Huge thing.
- 2:07:33Testecleese: Tons of money comes in the community from tourism.
- 2:07:37Testecleese: Here's the problem, is we could make it more.
- 2:07:41Testecleese: is not 1980.
- 2:07:44Testecleese: You know what I mean? Like, coming to see the Plymouth Rock.
- 2:07:48Testecleese: And when it came time for 400 years on the Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts had COVID.
- 2:07:55Brian McFadden: You gotta get there the day before for Taste the Bridge Day.
- 2:07:59Testecleese: What's that? Oh, the beer before you jump?
- 2:08:03Brian McFadden: I don't know.
- 2:08:04Testecleese: Oh, I did.
- 2:08:05Brian McFadden: Day before.
- 2:08:06Brian McFadden: It's a family-oriented event that showcases the area's finest restaurants, food trucks, caterers.
- 2:08:12Brian McFadden: Offer samples of their menus.
- 2:08:15Brian McFadden: And…
- 2:08:16Testecleese: each day.
- 2:08:17Brian McFadden: It's.
- 2:08:17Testecleese: People literally jump off the bridge.
- 2:08:20Brian McFadden: Kinda.
- 2:08:21Testecleese: Damn.
- 2:08:21Brian McFadden: They're gonna… they gotta eat before they jump, so…
- 2:08:23Testecleese: Y-you're doing your thing.
- 2:08:25Brian McFadden: Bones raised for this event.
- 2:08:26Testecleese: How far is…
- 2:08:27Brian McFadden: Canyon Rim Rotary Club.
- 2:08:31Testecleese: Now, how far is… how far is the ground from the bridge?
- 2:08:35Testecleese: People are doing parachutes, they're doing bungee cords, they're doing… Red Bull shows up, it's a big day, makes a ton of money.
- 2:08:45Testecleese: I think… Oh, shit. I think Western Virginia should advertise, tourism more.
- 2:08:53Testecleese: But you're not allowed to live here.
- 2:08:57Testecleese: People come from overseas to jump up the bridge. Have you found anything on Bridge Day?
- 2:09:05Brian McFadden: Yeah, there's lots of things about it.
- 2:09:07Testecleese: Yeah, I agree.
- 2:09:08Brian McFadden: You're not a Britain, but it doesn't sound like that much fun.
- 2:09:11Brian McFadden: It doesn't sound like that much fun, because you're not allowed to bring your dogs, no coolers or folding chairs, no bicycles, skates, skateboards or wagons, no.
- 2:09:18Testecleese: Is he jumping off a bridge?
- 2:09:20Brian McFadden: Fireworks, illegal, illegal.
- 2:09:22Testecleese: You're right.
- 2:09:22Brian McFadden: No alcoholic beverages, no quadroppers or drones.
- 2:09:27Brian McFadden: You're not allowed to bring a backpack, tote bag, large purse, camera bags, binocular cases…
- 2:09:34Brian McFadden: And you gotta have your clear bag for searching.
- 2:09:40Brian McFadden: Sounds horrible, sounds stupid, I'd rather go to a NASCAR race.
- 2:09:45Testecleese: Oh…
- 2:09:48Brian McFadden: I can take deer to my NASCAR.
- 2:09:49Testecleese: You got it kind of excessive in the editor, didn't it?
- 2:09:55Testecleese: But in general, I was like, man…
- 2:09:58Testecleese: You know, jump off the… this one day, they let you jump off the bridge.
- 2:10:01Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 2:10:03Testecleese: It's a big deal.
- 2:10:05Testecleese: Brings in tourism.
- 2:10:06Brian McFadden: I'd rather go to the chili cook-off.
- 2:10:09Testecleese: I didn't realize there was, too many rules.
- 2:10:14Testecleese: No, no, I knew the rules, but not.
- 2:10:16Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:10:16Testecleese: many.
- 2:10:18Testecleese: But, like I said, Red Bull shows up, you know what I mean?
- 2:10:24Testecleese: It's a big deal. It brings in a ton of money every year.
- 2:10:30Brian McFadden: Yeah, I'm sure it does. It's a free event.
- 2:10:33Testecleese: Millions.
- 2:10:33Brian McFadden: And… but it wants you… they told you to bring your wallets to shop at over 160 different vendors at the event.
- 2:10:40Testecleese: Well, yeah, everyone's doing sales right then, right?
- 2:10:44Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 2:10:45Testecleese: And then, obviously, food goes up, right?
- 2:10:48Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 2:10:50Testecleese: Hotels go up.
- 2:10:55Testecleese: I think West Virginia could, actually drop property tax if they properly marketed, tourism.
- 2:11:02Testecleese: The problem is, when you market tourism, is people want to move there.
- 2:11:08Testecleese: You know what I mean? And then tourism disappears.
- 2:11:11Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 2:11:14Brian McFadden: So, there's another fight going on in Michigan where…
- 2:11:19Testecleese: Oh, Michigan, again, right?
- 2:11:21Brian McFadden: Yep, yep, yep. There was a petition that went around last year.
- 2:11:27Brian McFadden: where, you know, they wanted to put it on the ballot that it would strengthen the, the voter rolls and the requirements to be able to vote in Michigan, and they raised a ton of extra signatures, but,
- 2:11:41Brian McFadden: Secretary of State's office found a way to keep it off the ballot coming up, because they used some loophole to say this or that.
- 2:11:52Brian McFadden: And so, the people against it took it to the Supreme Court, and of course, the Supreme Court's not gonna touch this, you know, because it's a state's rights issue, a state…
- 2:12:03Brian McFadden: This is a state problem, not a Supreme Court problem.
- 2:12:07Testecleese: Hold on, you mean United States Supreme Court?
- 2:12:10Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:12:11Testecleese: Oh, no, no, they're not getting involved. It has to go through, the state's Supreme Court first, right?
- 2:12:17Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:12:20Testecleese: This is what I'm worried about, Brian.
- 2:12:26Testecleese: I'm glad I moved out here to nowhere, honestly, because I think…
- 2:12:31Testecleese: That too many people think it's okay to kill your kids, basically.
- 2:12:37Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:12:38Testecleese: And I did it… Apparently, right after she did this, but I didn't know about it.
- 2:12:44Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:12:46Testecleese: I'm tired of people.
- 2:12:52Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 2:12:55Testecleese: I… I trust humanity in general, but not individual people.
- 2:13:01Testecleese: You know?
- 2:13:05Testecleese: People are bad.
- 2:13:11Testecleese: Now, people are real bad.
- 2:13:16Brian McFadden: Let me tell you a little rule about ice.
- 2:13:19Testecleese: Oh, I'd love to hear it, Brian, please.
- 2:13:21Brian McFadden: Explain to me. If you're, if you've been issued a final order of removal in July, don't go to the airport to go out of the country between now and then.
- 2:13:34Testecleese: Well, actually, it's not what you're supposed to do.
- 2:13:37Testecleese: Yes,
- 2:13:38Brian McFadden: Yeah, but he wasn't… he got apprehended when he was trying to fly around in the airport.
- 2:13:45Brian McFadden: Because he… Milo Yiannopoulos.
- 2:13:49Testecleese: Oh, Milo, he's a troll.
- 2:13:58Testecleese: He's a… I don't like the man, but a lot of people do.
- 2:14:03Testecleese: He was gay, then he wasn't.
- 2:14:06Brian McFadden: He was a Trump supporter, and then he wasn't.
- 2:14:09Testecleese: Yeah, he's still married to a man in the United States, but he doesn't have sex with him anymore, so he found Jesus. And you know what? I was actually willing to accept that, you know what I mean?
- 2:14:24Testecleese: Alright.
- 2:14:25Brian McFadden: They told him he overstayed his visa, he didn't want to leave, and now he's on his way back to the UK, where he belongs.
- 2:14:33Testecleese: Well, here's the thing is, he's claiming that his visa hadn't expired yet, and the federal government
- 2:14:40Testecleese: Came in from every direction.
- 2:14:43Testecleese: I don't know what's right, and I honestly don't give a shit.
- 2:14:48Brian McFadden: I don't either.
- 2:14:50Brian McFadden: Everybody loved his mugshot, though.
- 2:14:52Testecleese: with his brown hair, right? Now he's blonde.
- 2:14:56Brian McFadden: Yeah, he changed his hair color.
- 2:15:00Testecleese: I don't give a shit about Milo, look.
- 2:15:03Testecleese: Yours and Kanye were… He's the Hitler supporter, right?
- 2:15:08Brian McFadden: I don't know. I didn't follow him that much, you know.
- 2:15:11Testecleese: Kanye.
- 2:15:13Brian McFadden: Kanye, yeah.
- 2:15:16Testecleese: I don't care. He was a big right-wing influencer, whatever.
- 2:15:21Testecleese: I actually put it on YouTube when the… Yeah, YouTube. I'm back on Facebook.
- 2:15:29Testecleese: When this happens, like, good riddance, you know?
- 2:15:34Testecleese: I don't care.
- 2:15:35Brian McFadden: I don't either, but let… then we got, Representative Dingle, he's pushing legislation.
- 2:15:41Testecleese: angle?
- 2:15:43Brian McFadden: Yeah, Dingo, he's trying to block Trump's renaming of Lake Ontario.
- 2:15:48Testecleese: Yeah, you can't.
- 2:15:52Testecleese: Here's the thing is, he can't.
- 2:15:54Brian McFadden: Well, Lake Ontario is not the original name of the lake.
- 2:15:59Testecleese: So… The original.
- 2:16:00Brian McFadden: The name of the lane.
- 2:16:02Brian McFadden: No, even before… well, maybe after that, but it was called.
- 2:16:05Testecleese: Oh, baby.
- 2:16:06Brian McFadden: It was America before.
- 2:16:09Brian McFadden: It was Lake America back in the day. I saw that in an article earlier today.
- 2:16:16Testecleese: Yeah, I… I actually… Separate note, but, like you said.
- 2:16:22Testecleese: It was like America, and it wasn't unprecedented, but who gives a shit? The President of the United States has the authority to rename a landmark, right?
- 2:16:35Brian McFadden: Yup, his…
- 2:16:38Testecleese: I just got a good laugh out of these Canadians losing their mind.
- 2:16:44Testecleese: Overall, Ontario.
- 2:16:47Testecleese: And I was like, what are you gonna do about it? It's like… 87 of you.
- 2:16:53Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 2:16:56Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 2:16:57Testecleese: I think this is something a lot of Canadians forget.
- 2:17:04Testecleese: I know we alienated most of our Canadian viewers, maybe we have a couple.
- 2:17:09Testecleese: They're not terrible, the actual Canadian's not a terrible person.
- 2:17:15Testecleese: But… You have to realize that you have to make some money somewhere.
- 2:17:22Testecleese: And, who are you gonna sell ice to?
- 2:17:27Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 2:17:29Brian McFadden: Eskimos.
- 2:17:31Testecleese: Yeah, we have a refrigeration, Eskimos already have ice.
- 2:17:36Testecleese: Right?
- 2:17:39Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:17:39Testecleese: Yo, for real, what does Canada do?
- 2:17:43Brian McFadden: They got ice hockey.
- 2:17:46Testecleese: Oh, okay.
- 2:17:48Brian McFadden: Wayne Gretzky.
- 2:17:52Testecleese: Who played in the American NHL, right?
- 2:17:59Testecleese: No, don't get me wrong, Wayne Gresky is the GOAT.
- 2:18:03Brian McFadden: He's got a highway name to have for him in Canada.
- 2:18:05Testecleese: There we go. One of the greatest. But he went to… first he was Calgary, right?
- 2:18:13Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 2:18:15Testecleese: And I was kid Indian, right?
- 2:18:17Brian McFadden: Yeah, then he went to the Red Wings.
- 2:18:21Testecleese: I think he went to the Los Angeles Kings next.
- 2:18:25Brian McFadden: Oh, okay.
- 2:18:26Testecleese: And then the right… Look it up, Brian, look it up!
- 2:18:31Testecleese: Wayne Gretzky's career. I think he went… I think he played with the Kings for, like.
- 2:18:37Testecleese: Shit, like, 10 years?
- 2:18:39Testecleese: He's the GOAT, right?
- 2:18:42Testecleese: Here's the funny thing is, Brian and I neither watch sports anymore, but we still understand hockey, right?
- 2:18:50Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:18:57Testecleese: Right? Shit, how close are you to the Canadian border?
- 2:19:01Brian McFadden: Pretty damn close.
- 2:19:03Testecleese: No, no, how many miles, hours, whatever.
- 2:19:06Brian McFadden: I can be at the Canadian border in, like, 2 hours.
- 2:19:10Testecleese: That's not so bad, that's not bad at all.
- 2:19:12Brian McFadden: And then the Oilers, Los Angeles Kings, St. Louis Blues…
- 2:19:16Testecleese: Edmonton! Oh my god, I knew that!
- 2:19:19Brian McFadden: New York Rangers.
- 2:19:21Brian McFadden: Never Detroit Red Wings. Huh. Oh, he was the coach of the Red Wings, that's what it was.
- 2:19:26Testecleese: Yeah, he owns… no, he owns the team.
- 2:19:30Brian McFadden: I thought he was coach of the Red Wings, poor Faro.
- 2:19:33Testecleese: Look that up. He owns half the team, or a portion of the team.
- 2:19:40Testecleese: is… He's the GOAT, right?
- 2:19:45Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:19:46Testecleese: And don't get me wrong, hockey's a violent game, but he managed to not get hit.
- 2:19:52Testecleese: Right?
- 2:19:53Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:19:54Testecleese: Oh man, it was amazing watching that man play hockey.
- 2:19:59Brian McFadden: Well, it ain't the Red Wings, because the Red Wings are owned by the family that owns Little Caesars Pizza.
- 2:20:06Testecleese: Red Wings own Little Caesars?
- 2:20:09Brian McFadden: the family that owns Little Caesars Pizza owns the Red Wings.
- 2:20:13Testecleese: Pizza, pizza.
- 2:20:15Brian McFadden: Pizza, pizza.
- 2:20:16Testecleese: Hey, I miss, Well, how long was the pizza in the oven?
- 2:20:25Testecleese: Not the oven, that… they had him on a cooking sheet. So you remember, you remember, Lucy's, you walk in, you buy a pizza already cooked, right?
- 2:20:35Brian McFadden: Yeah. That was nuts.
- 2:20:36Testecleese: Diseases, right? Or is it someone else?
- 2:20:40Brian McFadden: Hot no.
- 2:20:42Testecleese: Yeah, hot and now.
- 2:20:43Testecleese: Boom, you buy it. It was, like, $13, right?
- 2:20:49Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:20:49Testecleese: It was… it was decent, right?
- 2:20:53Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 2:20:56Testecleese: What the fuck, man?
- 2:20:58Testecleese: I used to be able to go…
- 2:21:01Testecleese: I used to be able to go out and do shit. Now I'm actually, like, making a point to cook at home, because it costs so much less.
- 2:21:09Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:21:11Testecleese: And I know I've made a couple of jokes about how, quote, rich I am.
- 2:21:16Testecleese: But, and you know as well as I, that I am actually not, quote, rich, right?
- 2:21:21Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:21:26Testecleese: We're not even buying cans of, like, Campbell's anymore. We're…
- 2:21:32Testecleese: Actually, canning shit, because it causes.
- 2:21:34Brian McFadden: So much.
- 2:21:35Testecleese: visualize.
- 2:21:39Testecleese: And by the way, the wife's pot roast beef stew…
- 2:21:43Testecleese: Oh my god, it's so good. I do, hey, if I send you a can, will you try it?
- 2:21:49Brian McFadden: Of course.
- 2:21:49Testecleese: a… a jar?
- 2:21:51Testecleese: It's actually freshly… properly pressure cooked, sealed, it's good for 20 years.
- 2:21:59Brian McFadden: Nice.
- 2:22:01Testecleese: God.
- 2:22:02Testecleese: You're ready to give it, actually, a tasting of it, you know? Hey, how was it? Give it a review.
- 2:22:07Brian McFadden: I'll do it on the show.
- 2:22:10Testecleese: By the way, where's my mug?
- 2:22:12Brian McFadden: It's still… it's on the counter. It's going out. It's in Michigan. It's closer than it was!
- 2:22:20Testecleese: I can see it, motherfucker!
- 2:22:22Brian McFadden: Let me go get it and bring it to you.
- 2:22:26Brian McFadden: She took it out of the cabinet to remind me to go to the UPS store and get it packaged up properly and get her shipped off, so…
- 2:22:33Testecleese: My sticker's still on it?
- 2:22:35Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, everything's still on it.
- 2:22:38Testecleese: Dude, it was so crazy being at the same bar, drinking from my mug again, you know? It's like, this is… this is weird. And then I was like, I tended to bring it home, and I forgot.
- 2:22:51Testecleese: I was like, shit, this one in Pennsylvania. If I go to Pennsylvania, I'm gonna bring my mug, get my discount. Right. And I'm pretty sure my tag's good enough, right?
- 2:23:00Brian McFadden: Yeah, it is.
- 2:23:02Brian McFadden: Or the app on your phone.
- 2:23:05Testecleese: I don't have the app.
- 2:23:08Brian McFadden: Anything else you want to cover in international conflicts?
- 2:23:13Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, actually, there's a whole shit ton of shit, especially Canada.
- 2:23:19Testecleese: Oh, no. These kid idiots!
- 2:23:22Testecleese: No. They think they're fucking hard, right?
- 2:23:28Testecleese: They have no idea how shit works.
- 2:23:32Testecleese: Oh, we'll cut off your aluminum.
- 2:23:35Testecleese: These assholes, they have not a single bauxite mine. That sounds stupid, but that's where you get, aluminum ore.
- 2:23:45Testecleese: Canada has aluminum refineries, but nowhere to pull out aluminum. They buy their shit from China.
- 2:23:54Brian McFadden: Well, I hope Trump bans their import of garbage into Michigan soon, so… Because…
- 2:24:00Brian McFadden: Canada actually sends most of their garbage to Michigan.
- 2:24:06Testecleese: Why? Kenny, you're gonna fuckin' put up a border, we're gonna do it too, right?
- 2:24:11Brian McFadden: Yo.
- 2:24:15Testecleese: So what's Michigan doing? They just… Giant landfill?
- 2:24:18Brian McFadden: Probably.
- 2:24:21Brian McFadden: Yeah, it should. There's more space in Canada for a giant landfill than there is in Michigan.
- 2:24:27Testecleese: That's actually very… Brian, that was actually a very accurate argument, but…
- 2:24:36Testecleese: I should say, but how far in Canada? How far north in Canada? Not that far, honestly. What is this, like, 85% of the population lives within, 50 miles of the United States border?
- 2:24:54Brian McFadden: No, seriously.
- 2:24:54Testecleese: Guys, like…
- 2:24:55Brian McFadden: Nobody lives up by Alaska in the Canadian portion.
- 2:24:58Testecleese: I mean, some guys do, but they do…
- 2:25:00Brian McFadden: Yeah, the indigenous people.
- 2:25:03Testecleese: No, no, even white guys.
- 2:25:05Testecleese: But they're doing a mountain life thing, you know what I mean?
- 2:25:08Brian McFadden: Right, they're trapping and fishing.
- 2:25:11Testecleese: Exactly.
- 2:25:14Testecleese: Holy shit, a polar bear!
- 2:25:17Brian McFadden: Or maybe they're part of Ice Road Truckers.
- 2:25:21Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:25:22Testecleese: I haven't watched that show yet.
- 2:25:24Brian McFadden: It's not on anymore.
- 2:25:26Testecleese: Oh, it's over!
- 2:25:27Brian McFadden: Yeah, they… they canceled it.
- 2:25:29Testecleese: Was it any good?
- 2:25:30Brian McFadden: It wasn't bad.
- 2:25:32Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:25:34Testecleese: Never checked it out, just… Did pique my interest.
- 2:25:40Testecleese: Oh, shit.
- 2:25:42Testecleese: Alright.
- 2:25:43Testecleese: I'm… I'm drawing, Brian, what are we talking about?
- 2:25:46Testecleese: But let's… let's get crazy.
- 2:25:49Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 2:25:50Testecleese: I drank more than half a bottle already.
- 2:25:52Brian McFadden: That's great.
- 2:25:54Brian McFadden: So, we got Olivia travel warning urging Americans not to visit due to the possible kidnapping risk.
- 2:26:02Testecleese: Yeah, Libby is nuts, right?
- 2:26:04Brian McFadden: I wouldn't want to go… I don't think Libya's a really good tourist location. I don't think it's been that way for years.
- 2:26:12Testecleese: It took till now to say something?
- 2:26:14Brian McFadden: Exactly!
- 2:26:18Testecleese: Now, here's the question, is the federal government need to put out a, hey, don't do this?
- 2:26:24Brian McFadden: Need.
- 2:26:24Testecleese: Or is it your issue, right?
- 2:26:26Brian McFadden: I… I mean, I know they do it, but I mean, it should be common sense at this point, you know? Don't go to Libya! There's not even a real government there!
- 2:26:40Testecleese: Yeah, like, oh, like, okay, how's this? You wanna be the liberal white woman in Syria?
- 2:26:49Testecleese: Right?
- 2:26:50Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:26:52Testecleese: No, I don't. Well, then why are you flying there to be…
- 2:26:59Testecleese: Hey, hey, I think you're all wrong, I think you're all racist. He's like.
- 2:27:03Testecleese: Shut up, white bitch, we're all the same color. You know what I mean?
- 2:27:08Brian McFadden: Yep, and in another war we don't care about, the Iranian War, the Pentagon…
- 2:27:14Brian McFadden: The Pentagon is now retaliating by taking out Iranian oil tankers.
- 2:27:20Brian McFadden: After they tried to fire on U.S. warships, so now we're really hitting…
- 2:27:25Testecleese: No, missiles! Hold up, hold up! Missiles were fired on U.S. warships.
- 2:27:30Brian McFadden: And so we took out actual tankers that were hauling oil.
- 2:27:34Testecleese: And I just like to say, everyone's like, the United States is losing, right?
- 2:27:38Testecleese: How many of… how many missiles from Iran have hit our ships?
- 2:27:43Brian McFadden: None.
- 2:27:45Testecleese: Okay. Thank you, Brian.
- 2:27:47Brian McFadden: But Iran was probably…
- 2:27:49Testecleese: including inflation.
- 2:27:50Brian McFadden: Passage all these oil takers through the Strait of Hormuz, and they can't promise that anymore if we're starting to attack them.
- 2:27:59Brian McFadden: So, how many oil tankers are actually gonna go through there under Iranian protection now, when Iran can't protect them? Well, of course, they never could. We just weren't firing at them.
- 2:28:09Testecleese: more Hazel's fun. Yeah, you hear Trump wants to rename to Straight Homos.
- 2:28:16Brian McFadden: No, I missed that one.
- 2:28:18Testecleese: But… Not straightener, huh?
- 2:28:25Testecleese: I'm sorry.
- 2:28:27Testecleese: He is not American.
- 2:28:30Brian McFadden: And really, he didn't? I would've.
- 2:28:32Testecleese: administrative drunk.
- 2:28:38Testecleese: Now, I don't like him putting his name on everything.
- 2:28:42Brian McFadden: He does trolling! Trump is.
- 2:28:45Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:28:45Brian McFadden: Holy!
- 2:28:45Testecleese: Yes! Yes, I agree, but I liked the, the name… America.
- 2:28:51Testecleese: I knew it, it… We're the United States, not America, right?
- 2:28:59Testecleese: But everyone knew what he meant by it.
- 2:29:02Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:29:03Testecleese: Shrimack, well!
- 2:29:06Testecleese: Gulf of America, right? South America, North America, right?
- 2:29:10Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:29:11Testecleese: Why Mexico?
- 2:29:13Testecleese: And, by the way, it borders more… More… United States States.
- 2:29:22Testecleese: more land mass in the United States than Mexico.
- 2:29:25Brian McFadden: Canada!
- 2:29:28Testecleese: Canada's a fucking joke, dude. Oh my god.
- 2:29:33Testecleese: There are more people in Boston right now, as you and I speak, than there are in Canada.
- 2:29:42Brian McFadden: I know, but when it comes to borders, the northern borders…
- 2:29:44Testecleese: Boston… Boston is, like, 12 miles by 12 miles. Canada is, what, the fucking Arctic?
- 2:29:54Brian McFadden: But the land mass border between the U.S. and Canada is bigger than the Mexican-American border.
- 2:30:01Testecleese: What is that?
- 2:30:03Brian McFadden: Mileage. The Canadian… the northern border is a lot bigger than the southern border.
- 2:30:10Testecleese: Oh, well, when, when I'm.
- 2:30:12Brian McFadden: Mile-wise.
- 2:30:13Testecleese: Alright.
- 2:30:15Testecleese: what I want to say to my kids, When I was a boy.
- 2:30:20Testecleese: I could just literally drive across the Canadian border and back, no problem.
- 2:30:25Testecleese: You know you can't do that? You know you can't do that anymore? Yeah, exactly.
- 2:30:29Brian McFadden: I got a passport.
- 2:30:31Testecleese: Yeah, no, passport.
- 2:30:34Testecleese: My driver's license was good enough.
- 2:30:37Brian McFadden: Well, in Michigan.
- 2:30:38Brian McFadden: If I didn't have a passport, I could have got… I could have paid extra and had something added to my driver's license that would allow me to do it.
- 2:30:46Testecleese: Nope.
- 2:30:47Testecleese: I went to Canada several times to go skiing, right?
- 2:30:52Brian McFadden: Well, I went to Canada when I was in high school for different reasons.
- 2:30:56Testecleese: Hey, you wanted to get laid.
- 2:30:59Brian McFadden: No, I went to go drink.
- 2:31:00Testecleese: Yeah, oh, okay, but… You think I… that wasn't included?
- 2:31:05Brian McFadden: The drinking age is a little bit lower in Canada.
- 2:31:08Testecleese: We went to Canada to go skiing at a resort, you know?
- 2:31:14Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 2:31:15Testecleese: We drank at 19, as… The ro-
- 2:31:20Testecleese: But now you can't… my ID's not good enough, you know what I mean? My driver's license, I need a passport to Canada.
- 2:31:28Testecleese: Boy… Why?
- 2:31:31Testecleese: Canada doesn't want our money?
- 2:31:33Brian McFadden: No, I think it's the United States that made that rule, not Canada.
- 2:31:39Testecleese: No, I don't think…
- 2:31:40Brian McFadden: It all happened, it all happened after 9-11.
- 2:31:43Testecleese: No! That's coming back in, not going out.
- 2:31:49Testecleese: Right?
- 2:31:51Brian McFadden: I drink, but I… let me look it up.
- 2:31:54Testecleese: No, if I want to go to Canada, that's leaving the States.
- 2:32:00Testecleese: Canada decided I'm not allowed to come in without a background check anymore, and…
- 2:32:05Testecleese: Like I said, it was… it was, at one point, the largest open border, just showing ID, it was good enough, right?
- 2:32:15Testecleese: Driver's license, and now it's, A passport.
- 2:32:22Testecleese: I mean, I… I'm not kidding you, it was… it's crazy.
- 2:32:26Brian McFadden: Nope, it was the US that changed the rules.
- 2:32:30Testecleese: I used to go to Canada every year.
- 2:32:33Brian McFadden: In 2004, Congress passed the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act.
- 2:32:39Brian McFadden: That, made it so it standardized identification and citizen documents required to cross the borders following 9-11.
- 2:32:48Testecleese: Oh, that included…
- 2:32:50Brian McFadden: Thousand.
- 2:32:50Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:32:50Brian McFadden: In 2007, that major… that took effect, and you couldn't fly between U.S. and Canada without a passport. In 2008, land and sea crossings required.
- 2:33:03Testecleese: So, now…
- 2:33:03Brian McFadden: Proof of citizenship plus government photo identification.
- 2:33:08Testecleese: 9-11.
- 2:33:09Brian McFadden: In 2009, the full thing went into effect, where you needed a passport, passport card, or an enhanced driver's license, which you can get on the border states. Like, Vermont can get a… probably get the enhanced border card.
- 2:33:23Testecleese: I have one.
- 2:33:24Brian McFadden: N…
- 2:33:25Testecleese: I have one.
- 2:33:27Brian McFadden: No, this isn't the real ID one, this is one that allows you to cross the border with your driver's license.
- 2:33:33Testecleese: Yes.
- 2:33:34Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:33:36Testecleese: I got it from Massachusetts.
- 2:33:39Brian McFadden: Well, you have a West Virginia one now, don't you?
- 2:33:41Testecleese: I was just gonna say, I…
- 2:33:43Testecleese: I'm pretty sure it transferred, but I'm not sure how.
- 2:33:47Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:33:48Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 2:33:53Testecleese: Yeah. I don't know, man.
- 2:33:54Brian McFadden: It was the US that changed the rules for Canada, of course.
- 2:33:57Testecleese: I don't know.
- 2:33:58Brian McFadden: Always the U.S. screwing things up.
- 2:34:02Testecleese: 9-11 ruined it.
- 2:34:04Brian McFadden: Yep, sure did.
- 2:34:08Testecleese: Man, like we were talking about. You usually just drive across the border to go skiing, right?
- 2:34:14Brian McFadden: Huh?
- 2:34:16Testecleese: Yo, let's be real. Further north, better skiing, right?
- 2:34:21Brian McFadden: Of course, there's better snow.
- 2:34:23Testecleese: Yeah, exactly! And I'm sure in Michigan, you even went north into Canada to go skiing, right? North of you is, what, Alberta?
- 2:34:33Brian McFadden: Toronto.
- 2:34:34Testecleese: It's your oat.
- 2:34:36Testecleese: Oh, wow, wow, really?
- 2:34:38Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:34:39Testecleese: You're further east than I thought.
- 2:34:41Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:34:43Brian McFadden: It's like, once you cross the border, Toronto's, like, 2 hours away.
- 2:34:48Testecleese: Yeah, it used to take me 6 hours to drive from, Boston to Montreal.
- 2:34:55Testecleese: Problem is, all these assholes spoke French.
- 2:34:59Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, if you're going to Montreal, yup.
- 2:35:01Testecleese: Yeah, and they thought you were worse than them.
- 2:35:04Brian McFadden: Yeah, of course I did, because you don't speak French.
- 2:35:06Testecleese: Then you got into a fight with them, and you went to jail in Canada.
- 2:35:11Testecleese: I mean… I mean…
- 2:35:13Brian McFadden: -Oh.
- 2:35:14Testecleese: I would assume, anyway.
- 2:35:17Testecleese: I've… Make sure the wife's gone. Yeah, I've been… I've been in jail in Canada, like, 3 times.
- 2:35:29Testecleese: Apparently, a rat, a rat is French for a stop.
- 2:35:34Brian McFadden: And you didn't stop.
- 2:35:36Testecleese: I don't speak French?
- 2:35:38Brian McFadden: You gotta look at the stop signs!
- 2:35:42Testecleese: No, the police!
- 2:35:44Testecleese: Who's the police?
- 2:35:45Brian McFadden: Oh, good.
- 2:35:47Testecleese: Yeah, no, oh!
- 2:35:49Testecleese: Oh, shit, bro, you… You know I got shot by a fucking Canadian Mountie?
- 2:35:55Brian McFadden: No, I missed that one.
- 2:35:59Testecleese: No, no, for real, I, I really did.
- 2:36:04Testecleese: Well, they shouldn't.
- 2:36:04Brian McFadden: You will.
- 2:36:06Brian McFadden: Rubber bullet?
- 2:36:09Testecleese: I don't know, I just know that I got arrested in a hurry.
- 2:36:13Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:36:14Testecleese: And I argued my case that you can't just shoot me, but I got a… I got a scar that looks like a rigworm scar.
- 2:36:24Testecleese: And, I don't know if you can see, but you notice, you see the setup feed?
- 2:36:29Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:36:31Testecleese: That was actually the first tattoo on this arm, and it was to cover the, no, it wasn't a full-on wound, it grazed me.
- 2:36:40Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:36:41Testecleese: So I covered it up, I was like, I can't believe I got fucking shot by the police.
- 2:36:45Brian McFadden: You know what I mean?
- 2:36:47Testecleese: And I was like, and I'm in Canada, you know what I mean?
- 2:36:54Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, these… these fucking… these Mounties, they actually have authority. I hope you know that, Brian.
- 2:37:01Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 2:37:02Testecleese: No, the federal, Mom.
- 2:37:03Brian McFadden: Oh, they ride booths.
- 2:37:05Testecleese: Huh?
- 2:37:06Brian McFadden: They ride the moose.
- 2:37:09Testecleese: Yeah, I would love to see that, actually.
- 2:37:12Testecleese: Not a horse, a movie?
- 2:37:15Testecleese: Hey!
- 2:37:20Testecleese: Come down here.
- 2:37:22Testecleese: Come hunting with me.
- 2:37:25Testecleese: For real.
- 2:37:26Brian McFadden: We'll see.
- 2:37:28Testecleese: You said we'll see. Just say no, then.
- 2:37:33Testecleese: Yeah, come on!
- 2:37:37Testecleese: Wife and I sighted in the rifle with a laser.
- 2:37:41Testecleese: She's a better shot than I am.
- 2:37:44Testecleese: And I actually said, you get first shot on a deer this year, right?
- 2:37:48Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:37:49Testecleese: And she was, like, excited and super apprehensive.
- 2:37:54Testecleese: You know, he's like, I don't want to kill a deer, you know? But yeah, I had so much food.
- 2:38:01Testecleese: You know, this is where… Cheeseburgers come from?
- 2:38:07Testecleese: But yeah, come on, man. Come on during hunting season.
- 2:38:13Testecleese: It'll be fun, you know it will.
- 2:38:15Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:38:16Testecleese: Oh, come on.
- 2:38:19Testecleese: Well, you… what, you won't eat a venison burger?
- 2:38:23Brian McFadden: No, I would.
- 2:38:24Testecleese: Yeah, actually, that sounds really good, doesn't it?
- 2:38:28Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:38:30Testecleese: Alright. I'm gonna get another ice cube. What else are we talking about? Are we still… are we already in leftovers?
- 2:38:36Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:38:37Testecleese: Oh, shit. Alright, oh, what?
- 2:38:41Testecleese: This cat that has shit…
- 2:38:45Brian McFadden: It's true.
- 2:38:45Testecleese: It's weird, it's stupid.
- 2:38:47Testecleese: Apparently, it's a targeting mechanism, I don't understand.
- 2:38:53Brian McFadden: They're using AI.
- 2:38:57Testecleese: Yeah, by the way, from what I hear, is we can actually, wipe off the AI filter if we ask it to do a couple things.
- 2:39:08Brian McFadden: I'm God.
- 2:39:08Testecleese: Basically, erase the filter.
- 2:39:11Testecleese: It gives it a glossy look.
- 2:39:15Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:39:17Testecleese: Fetterman, who… We talked about Fetterman.
- 2:39:23Brian McFadden: Yeah, we always talk about Federal Reserve.
- 2:39:24Testecleese: But here's the problem, is these assholes voted for him because he had a stroke, right?
- 2:39:29Brian McFadden: Yeah, they thought he'd be a pushover.
- 2:39:31Testecleese: We…
- 2:39:32Brian McFadden: Buy an office, so they could put somebody else in place.
- 2:39:36Testecleese: We made a big deal, it's like, you go to voted for a guy who can't speak, right?
- 2:39:41Testecleese: Oh, oh shit, now we can.
- 2:39:44Brian McFadden: Yeah, and he ain't going… he ain't voting your way all the time. He's like… he's actually, like, more or less…
- 2:39:49Testecleese: Is he…
- 2:39:50Brian McFadden: He's more like a clinic.
- 2:39:51Testecleese: He's a Clinton Democrat!
- 2:39:53Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:39:54Testecleese: Exactly. No, exactly. He wants to think that if you work hard.
- 2:40:00Testecleese: You get to keep your rewards.
- 2:40:02Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:40:03Testecleese: If you were… Above and beyond successful, then we tax you.
- 2:40:09Testecleese: Not, not, you opened a corner store.
- 2:40:14Testecleese: Right. Right?
- 2:40:15Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:40:17Testecleese: And…
- 2:40:18Testecleese: You and I made jokes, they made sure to let the guy… elect the guy who literally couldn't speak… Yup. …after a stroke.
- 2:40:27Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 2:40:27Testecleese: And he was in a sweatshirt, and… shorts.
- 2:40:32Brian McFadden: He still wears it. He still wears that.
- 2:40:34Testecleese: Yep.
- 2:40:35Testecleese: He…
- 2:40:35Brian McFadden: Because he… because the person he challenged, the…
- 2:40:39Brian McFadden: to do something with him, refused to do it. He said he put on a suit and tie, but he won't… they don't want to do it.
- 2:40:49Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:40:51Testecleese: I'm tempted to drive up to New, to Pennsylvania and shake his hand, honestly.
- 2:40:56Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:40:56Testecleese: Yeah, and here's the funny thing, Brian, is he's a old-school Democrat.
- 2:41:02Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 2:41:05Testecleese: But now that's far right.
- 2:41:08Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:41:09Testecleese: I don't understand what's going on.
- 2:41:14Testecleese: This is what pisses me off.
- 2:41:16Brian McFadden: Is it?
- 2:41:17Testecleese: Go to work, make money, do well. And they're like, oh, you're a fucking, ultra-right mega.
- 2:41:24Testecleese: So what, fucking jerk off and watch porn and you should get paid? You know what I mean?
- 2:41:29Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:41:33Testecleese: Anything else? Leftovers? Do you want, Hargot?
- 2:41:36Testecleese: This is fun, because there's some actual fun stuff and leftovers this time. I didn't know where to put them.
- 2:41:45Brian McFadden: Hmm…
- 2:41:47Testecleese: Cat in the hat was stupid, right?
- 2:41:49Brian McFadden: Yep, it was. I don't care about anything else.
- 2:41:52Testecleese: Oh, Missouri! Boy, it's Michigan, right?
- 2:41:55Brian McFadden: No, Missouri's out of the Midwest.
- 2:41:59Testecleese: Michigan's not?
- 2:42:01Brian McFadden: We border Indiana, Ohio.
- 2:42:04Brian McFadden: In Wisconsin.
- 2:42:06Testecleese: Only 3 in Canada.
- 2:42:09Brian McFadden: Canada's not a state.
- 2:42:11Testecleese: I'm just saying, Michigan is not small.
- 2:42:15Brian McFadden: And there's a body of water between us and Canada.
- 2:42:20Testecleese: No… Only some of it.
- 2:42:24Brian McFadden: No, you can't drive without going across a bridge or a tunnel to get to Canada.
- 2:42:31Testecleese: Sure.
- 2:42:32Brian McFadden: Lake Ontario, Lake Superior.
- 2:42:34Testecleese: Hey, by the way, what'd you wipe?
- 2:42:36Brian McFadden: Bright River.
- 2:42:37Testecleese: What'd your wife think in Niagara?
- 2:42:40Brian McFadden: He loved it.
- 2:42:41Testecleese: Yeah, no, it's pretty amazing to see, right?
- 2:42:44Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:42:45Brian McFadden: Especially from the Canadian side.
- 2:42:47Testecleese: No, here's the thing is, the United States and Canada should be friends.
- 2:42:51Testecleese: Right?
- 2:42:52Brian McFadden: Should be, but…
- 2:42:53Testecleese: No, it's easy. Let's be real, Brian, what's Canada gonna do besides without the United States, right?
- 2:43:00Brian McFadden: Huh? Rely on the king.
- 2:43:05Testecleese: What's the king gonna do?
- 2:43:10Brian McFadden: No idea.
- 2:43:11Testecleese: Yeah, exactly.
- 2:43:15Testecleese: And that's what drives me nuts. Everyone's upset about these, quote, tariffs on Canada.
- 2:43:21Testecleese: Canada had, like, 800% tariff on dairy.
- 2:43:25Testecleese: From the United States.
- 2:43:27Testecleese: Still do, I don't… Okay.
- 2:43:31Brian McFadden: I think they do.
- 2:43:33Testecleese: Yeah, look it up. What is the tariff on, dairy from the U.S. to Canada?
- 2:43:39Testecleese: 800% was my… Initial statement…
- 2:43:47Testecleese: I don't know, Meg.
- 2:43:49Testecleese: How much… At what point do we expect you to pay it back, you know?
- 2:43:59Testecleese: Let's got better.
- 2:44:00Testecleese: Sounds weird, but we got resources. And I don't think people understand how enormous the United States is.
- 2:44:08Testecleese: I think that's the big issue, Brian.
- 2:44:11Testecleese: Is people think this is a common country around the world.
- 2:44:17Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 2:44:17Testecleese: Like, like, Australia, right?
- 2:44:21Testecleese: Huge.
- 2:44:23Testecleese: basically, like, 99% of the continent, right?
- 2:44:28Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:44:29Testecleese: The United States is, like, what, 3 quarters.
- 2:44:33Testecleese: Of a continent, right?
- 2:44:38Testecleese: The United States covers Europe, entire of Europe, and parts of Asia.
- 2:44:44Testecleese: By the way, where the fuck is Ron?
- 2:44:48Brian McFadden: He never… he got tied up at work, he said.
- 2:44:55Brian McFadden: Maybe next week.
- 2:44:57Testecleese: That's how it goes.
- 2:44:58Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:45:01Testecleese: You're trying to bring something up, aren't you?
- 2:45:04Brian McFadden: No, I'm good. I'm… we've been going for 3 hours, almost.
- 2:45:09Testecleese: Is the ribbon that long?
- 2:45:12Testecleese: Alright, well, cut the straw off whenever you want.
- 2:45:16Testecleese: I still wanna talk, though. That's fine. I say that as the naked wife comes down the stairs.
- 2:45:22Brian McFadden: Oh, she may have better plans for you.
- 2:45:24Testecleese: Man… Right, she…
- 2:45:26Brian McFadden: You're…
- 2:45:26Testecleese: Right, she may have better plans.
- 2:45:29Testecleese: And she goes in the freezer first.
- 2:45:32Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:45:33Brian McFadden: Eve!
- 2:45:34Testecleese: You're gonna laugh your ass off this. She doesn't even know. She just heard my argument.
- 2:45:40Testecleese: Respond to you. Brian! We're gonna end this shit?
- 2:45:47Brian McFadden: All right.
- 2:45:48Testecleese: Michigan, what do you call it? Michigan…
- 2:45:53Brian McFadden: Well, I got an image for you for Michigan Revolution!
- 2:45:57Testecleese: Oh, shit. I'm ready to look at one, but that's it.
- 2:46:01Brian McFadden: Alright, that's right.
- 2:46:02Testecleese: minute, I'm sure, she's looking at me like, what the fuck's going on?
- 2:46:09Brian McFadden: Well, play your music, take Sharon back.
- 2:46:12Testecleese: I can play the music. Don't leave!
- 2:46:16Brian McFadden: sharing…
- 2:46:17Testecleese: No, it's… it's… Ugh.
- 2:46:26Testecleese: Shut it.
- 2:46:28Testecleese: Sir, she's down here with, shorts and no shirt.
- 2:46:31Brian McFadden: That's distracting.
- 2:46:33Testecleese: Yep.
- 2:46:36Testecleese: That's distracting.
- 2:46:42Testecleese: Oh, cut it off, Brian!
- 2:46:45Brian McFadden: Alright. We'll talk about this?
- 2:46:47Testecleese: In a couple minutes.
- 2:46:48Brian McFadden: Alright, later.
