- 0:28Testecleese: Hello, and welcome to episode 305 of the Jeffrey and Brian Show. I'm Jeffrey.
- 0:33Brian McFadden: And I'm Brian.
- 0:34Testecleese: And we're two guys drinking some beers, talking about what's going on.
- 0:38Testecleese: You said Guapo's not gonna make it because of, he's out camping?
- 0:45Brian McFadden: Correct.
- 0:46Testecleese: Well, I got an interesting question. If you went out camping, right, all by yourself.
- 0:53Testecleese: And you woke up in the morning, and you're,
- 0:57Testecleese: and your ass is all covered in Vaseline, then you've definitely been buttfucked.
- 1:04Testecleese: Would you tell anyone?
- 1:05Brian McFadden: No.
- 1:07Testecleese: Now, you wanna go camping next weekend?
- 1:10Testecleese: No.
- 1:13Testecleese: No, no, I don't.
- 1:18Testecleese: Here comes the repeat offender!
- 1:21Ron Pascoe: G'day, Lance, how are we?
- 1:23Testecleese: Yeah, we're doing, we're doing.
- 1:25Testecleese: How you doing over there?
- 1:27Ron Pascoe: Oh, good, mate, good, had to take the missus out last weekend. Sorry I couldn't make it, lads.
- 1:32Brian McFadden: It's all good.
- 1:32Ron Pascoe: Thanks, Steve. Thanks for the invites you, do the thing every couple of weeks.
- 1:39Testecleese: Yeah, I went, I went out exploring in my, backyard today.
- 1:45Testecleese: Oh my, that was so much effort and work.
- 1:48Testecleese: I don't know, we went down maybe… A mile, maybe two?
- 1:54Testecleese: Down, you know, behind us.
- 1:57Testecleese: And, getting down the side of a mountain is easy.
- 2:01Brian McFadden: Getting up harder.
- 2:02Testecleese: Kinkle going back up sucked!
- 2:05Brian McFadden: You should have put a rope down.
- 2:07Testecleese: It's a zebird, mate?
- 2:10Testecleese: Yeah, it's not that steep, but it is steep enough. You can, at some points, you can lean forward, reach your arm out, and touch the ground in front of you, and you're like, oh, man.
- 2:19Ron Pascoe: That's like me coming home from the pub.
- 2:21Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Walking sideways, like, this isn't even physically possible, it only works when you're drunk, so, you know?
- 2:28Ron Pascoe: Why do I wait to clients, mate, so I've got the lean backwards going. I've got the.
- 2:33Testecleese: That's weird.
- 2:33Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 2:34Testecleese: How is your spine bent backwards at the waist?
- 2:38Ron Pascoe: Very difficulty.
- 2:41Testecleese: Yeah, alright, well, let's get into the, follow-up shit we got here.
- 2:47Testecleese: Brian, this is yours. Bolton has been indicted.
- 2:50Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:51Brian McFadden: For, having classified documents in his house.
- 2:56Testecleese: Yes, mishandling them and all that good stuff. Do you give a shit one way or the other, Arts? Like…
- 3:02Brian McFadden: I'm kind of glad that they're starting to pursue it, you know, but probably nothing will happen, so…
- 3:09Ron Pascoe: Yay.
- 3:10Testecleese: Probably, yeah.
- 3:11Ron Pascoe: I think they're going for the smaller fish first.
- 3:17Testecleese: I mean, drunk.
- 3:18Testecleese: I just think it's hilarious right now watching the Democrats defend John Bolton.
- 3:23Brian McFadden: Yeah. I'm like…
- 3:25Testecleese: Like, come on, guys, like, this guy's a war hawk, and you hated him until he was working for Trump, you know?
- 3:31Ron Pascoe: Boom.
- 3:32Ron Pascoe: But you notice the charges that got him on? I haven't got him on, like, transmitting the information, or…
- 3:39Ron Pascoe: Whatever, they've just got him on having him in possession.
- 3:43Testecleese: You know. Oh yeah, he wasn't selling secrets, but he had no authority to have this stuff in his home.
- 3:48Brian McFadden: No.
- 3:48Ron Pascoe: 100%.
- 3:49Testecleese: But neither did Joe Biden, and no one gave a shit about that. They only cared when Trump had his stuff in his house, and he actually had the legal authority to have the stuff with him.
- 3:57Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 3:57Ron Pascoe: Yay.
- 3:59Testecleese: Yeah, right.
- 4:00Testecleese: What do you… what else do you get, though? That's how it rolls, right?
- 4:06Testecleese: Apparently, the Supreme Court, I didn't even realize that the, his appeal on his $1.4 billion Sandy Hook, case, I didn't realize this was being appealed already, or whatever, I didn't, you know, was happening.
- 4:19Testecleese: Apparently, it got shut down by the Supreme Court, so…
- 4:22Ron Pascoe: Yeah.
- 4:23Testecleese: He has to come up with, like, the GDP of, like, France.
- 4:28Ron Pascoe: It's just the Supreme Court saying this guy can't afford this big bill, and they can't force him.
- 4:35Testecleese: What do you got… how are you possibly… how is he possibly gonna come up with $1.4 billion? Because they sued Alex Jones, not InfoWars, right?
- 4:45Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 4:45Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 4:46Testecleese: So, like, yeah, so he can't even just, like, let InfoWars fold.
- 4:50Testecleese: And… you know what I mean? Oh, well, it's gone, who are you gonna take the money from?
- 4:55Testecleese: There's no way he's gonna come up with this money in his entire life.
- 4:58Brian McFadden: -
- 4:58Ron Pascoe: He'll never poke. You'll never poke.
- 5:01Testecleese: No, and you didn't help anyone, all you did was punish him, which is not the point of a civil court. It's not for punishment, it's for, it's for, like.
- 5:10Testecleese: Paying someone back. Contrition.
- 5:13Testecleese: You know what I mean? Like, you know, we're gonna set this right, and you just, you're punishing them like this out of criminal court.
- 5:21Ron Pascoe: What do they say? If you owe a man a million dollars, you're in trouble, but if you owe a man a billion, they're in trouble.
- 5:26Brian McFadden: Yep, never gonna pay.
- 5:28Testecleese: Yeah.
- 5:29Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, that's a good point. A million dollars you'll never pay either, but you might come close, and it's gonna take you a long… long time to pay that back, you know?
- 5:39Ron Pascoe: That's basically your house and everything, mate, that's what it is.
- 5:42Testecleese: Hmm.
- 5:46Testecleese: Alright, so I'm sure you guys heard about, TPUSA is doing their own separate halftime show, because they don't like Bad Bunny.
- 5:54Brian McFadden: Nobody likes Bad Bunny.
- 5:56Testecleese: Alright. Did you see… Who they got to headline their show?
- 6:01Brian McFadden: Adam Sandler.
- 6:03Testecleese: Yeah! Now, is he gonna do stand-up, or is he gonna sing, like.
- 6:08Brian McFadden: That's a good question.
- 6:10Testecleese: the Hanukkah song. I would think he'd be doing.
- 6:13Brian McFadden: stand up.
- 6:15Testecleese: Possibly, but I would love to hear a piece of shit car again, that'd be hilarious.
- 6:20Ron Pascoe: I was actually hoping I would give Tom McDonald.
- 6:24Testecleese: Yeah, I just listened to his new, release today, actually.
- 6:28Testecleese: But they have Tom McDonald going there, too. I'm not surprised by that.
- 6:33Testecleese: I mean, let's be real, he's been doing very political Music for several years now.
- 6:40Ron Pascoe: Well, Lord of Trump was backing him.
- 6:43Testecleese: Was that…
- 6:45Ron Pascoe: Was it Laura Trump? Laura Trump was backing him?
- 6:48Testecleese: I don't.
- 6:49Ron Pascoe: Eric's wife? Yeah, Eric's wife. She was pushing for Tom McDonald to get in there.
- 6:53Testecleese: Well, within, like, an hour of Tom… Oh, yeah.
- 6:56Testecleese: of Kirk dying. Tom McDonald had a new hit, a song that went up all at the charts about Charlie Kirk getting killed.
- 7:05Testecleese: It's like the guy sat down and just wrote it on the spot, and I was like, holy crap. I'm not huge into rap, but that guy, I'll say he's talented.
- 7:12Testecleese: I mean.
- 7:12Ron Pascoe: Have you heard that some…
- 7:14Testecleese: Sorry.
- 7:15Ron Pascoe: Have you heard that song, Devil is a Democrat?
- 7:17Testecleese: Yes, and I love the fight he got into with Gavin Newsom over it. I thought it was hilarious.
- 7:24Ron Pascoe: Newsom called him gay.
- 7:26Testecleese: I know, and I was like, hold on, I thought that wasn't something we were supposed… I thought that was, like, inappropriate, we're not supposed to…
- 7:32Ron Pascoe: Is it politically incorrect.
- 7:34Testecleese: Not even, like, what's wrong with being gay?
- 7:36Testecleese: Right? That's supposed to be the argument, right?
- 7:42Testecleese: Oh my god. But yeah, there was some really funny stuff on it. I like a lot of his work, I'm not a huge rap fan, but, you know, the guy is talented.
- 7:50Testecleese: Just like I'm not huge into bluegrass, but I have, like, 3 or 4 bluegrass CDs now, because every time I go to, like, one of these festival events around here, there's a bluegrass band playing. I'm like, these guys are good, and I buy their CD for, like, 10 bucks, you know?
- 8:06Testecleese: Which reminds me, I'm gonna have to play you guys some, of this one band I heard, one of these days. You're gonna… the song's called Hard Times, and it's just…
- 8:15Testecleese: The guy plays a… there's a fiddle.
- 8:17Testecleese: A stand-up bass and a, my guitar, and that's it.
- 8:25Testecleese: I don't know how much you guys fall… no bluegrass at all, like, are you… would you even be able to recognize that kind of music?
- 8:30Ron Pascoe: I didn't want to be in bluegrass.
- 8:33Testecleese: A lot of people would just call it country, you know what I mean?
- 8:36Testecleese: My Devil Went Down to Georgia was no country song, okay?
- 8:43Ron Pascoe: hit number one?
- 8:47Testecleese: It might have, it was huge. Like, that was Charlie Daniels band's, like, hit. That's the only reason why anyone ever heard of that guy, you know?
- 8:56Testecleese: Well, besides the handful of, you know, hillbillies that actually follow bluegrass, you know?
- 9:04Testecleese: But apparently, anyway, apparently there's a petition to try to get Levi's Stadium, where the Super Bowl is gonna be, to change the halftime show.
- 9:14Testecleese: I mean, I get signing a piece of paper with enough signatures, but, like, they're not obligated. It's not like
- 9:22Testecleese: They're obligated to do anything.
- 9:24Brian McFadden: No, that… we already talked about that stupid Yorkov.
- 9:29Brian McFadden: Those stupid petitions on there.
- 9:32Brian McFadden: I mean, even if they get a million voters, even though the government doesn't have to do anything with it, it's just a stupid petition.
- 9:41Testecleese: Yeah, exactly. They could get literally every American to sign it, and…
- 9:46Testecleese: They don't have to even read it.
- 9:47Brian McFadden: No.
- 9:48Testecleese: Doesn't Jake…
- 9:49Ron Pascoe: See you in a film.
- 9:50Ron Pascoe: It's the NFL, what do they do? How are the NFL reading the room? Like, is this a political stunt?
- 9:56Testecleese: Like, they just sort of…
- 9:58Ron Pascoe: surgical?
- 9:58Testecleese: Did you see the crap they're gonna be painting in the end zones?
- 10:03Testecleese: Oh, just like when they did, Black Lives Matter.
- 10:06Testecleese: And they're doing stuff like that again, and they're like, we have, like, 6 things, you guys gotta come in and vote. It's like, oh?
- 10:15Ron Pascoe: Not supposed to know.
- 10:17Testecleese: Do I look… Unusually red to you guys.
- 10:22Ron Pascoe: No, not really, mate.
- 10:24Brian McFadden: Yes, it's the grow light.
- 10:25Testecleese: That's… yeah, that's exactly… I'm looking at it, and I'm like, that's just turning me red, isn't it?
- 10:30Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 10:32Testecleese: Alright, sorry, alright.
- 10:35Testecleese: So…
- 10:36Testecleese: Brian, Virginia! We… we've been following this from the begin… well, say that, we've been following Virginia in general for a while, because that's kind of what we do.
- 10:45Testecleese: But this one story about the, the AG race.
- 10:49Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 10:50Testecleese: Tell me, tell me, what's going…
- 10:52Brian McFadden: The Democrat, candidate, news came out that he was Ticketed for reckless driving.
- 11:02Brian McFadden: Years back, and then he didn't like one of his political appointments, and he sent a text to somebody else that said he would wish that there would have been two billets used.
- 11:12Brian McFadden: And, kill the guy. And he's since apologized, so he says, for doing that.
- 11:19Testecleese: Yeah, he said if he had 2 bullets and was in a room with this guy, Polt, and Hitler, this guy would get two of them in the head.
- 11:26Brian McFadden: Yeah, and it was.
- 11:28Testecleese: And he wants to kill the guy's kids in his mother's… in the baby's arms.
- 11:33Testecleese: I don't know if you're,
- 11:35Testecleese: And more… more stuff's still coming out about that, but anyway…
- 11:38Testecleese: how is this affecting the election? Because none of the Democrats have pulled their support for this guy.
- 11:44Brian McFadden: Well, President Obama has not endorsed him.
- 11:48Testecleese: Never giving an endorsement is different than revoking your endorsement, you know that too, right?
- 11:52Brian McFadden: Yeah, but, the, Democrat candidate for governor has not withdrawn her endorsement of him either.
- 12:02Testecleese: Exactly.
- 12:03Brian McFadden: Pretty much the state Democrats are standing behind him, because they have no choice to. But…
- 12:10Testecleese: No, just say we're gonna lose this one, you know what I mean?
- 12:12Brian McFadden: 10… the Republican person who's the incumbent is leading by, like, 10 points. Meanwhile, the governor's race is leaning Democrat, and so is Lieutenant Governor.
- 12:25Testecleese: Okay.
- 12:27Brian McFadden: Virginia's one of those weird states where you vote separately for each candidate.
- 12:32Testecleese: I like that, and you know what? I would like to see the D's and the R's come off of all the tickets.
- 12:37Testecleese: So you don't vote for a party, you have to actually know if you're voting for somebody or not, you know what I mean?
- 12:44Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 12:47Testecleese: Virginia's starting to really drive me nuts on this show, dude, because there's so much news coming out of Virginia that I never know if I should put this stuff at follow-up, local, put it down under ICE stuff, or… you know what I mean?
- 13:01Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 13:02Testecleese: There's just so much crap coming out of Virginia, all the time.
- 13:08Testecleese: I don't know, how do you think things are gonna turn out in general in Virginia? You think.
- 13:14Brian McFadden: I mean, the polls, which focus on the very liberal areas of the state, all show that Spanberger's gonna win by a landslide, but I think that her support for Jones, the nominee for Attorney General for the Democrat, is hurting her.
- 13:34Brian McFadden: In the polls, too.
- 13:37Brian McFadden: And she didn't answer a whole lot of questions in the debate, either. It was, you know, she didn't really have a lot of positions to stand for, so…
- 13:46Testecleese: Interesting you say that about the debate. Did you watch any of the,
- 13:51Testecleese: mayoral race debate last night in, New York City.
- 13:56Ron Pascoe: Yeah, a little bit.
- 13:58Testecleese: Oh, some of it was good, I got a good laugh at it. Some of the… Cuomo!
- 14:04Testecleese: Cuomo was like, oh, when you fail, you gotta get back up, dust yourself off, figure out what you did wrong, fix it, and try again.
- 14:12Brian McFadden: But he didn't figure out what he did wrong.
- 14:14Testecleese: No, but I don't think this sounds an awful lot like pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.
- 14:19Ron Pascoe: Reich?
- 14:20Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 14:22Ron Pascoe: Well, man, Darni got him on that one where he said about, oh, you were the one who sent all those elderly people into a bloody aged care facility to die.
- 14:29Testecleese: Well, good job!
- 14:30Testecleese: Thing is, he's been confronted with that more than once, right?
- 14:34Ron Pascoe: Yay.
- 14:35Ron Pascoe: But yeah, of them And the Knicks and that, he said, why don't you just make a decision?
- 14:40Ron Pascoe: Because you said, which game would you go to?
- 14:43Testecleese: Yeah, what was up with them? God knows.
- 14:46Testecleese: Which I could, you know what?
- 14:47Ron Pascoe: ruined.
- 14:48Testecleese: You want to watch.
- 14:49Ron Pascoe: He goes, I'll go to a Knicks game. I'll do one half at one, I'll do the other half at the other.
- 14:56Testecleese: Yeah, would you rather go to a Knicks game or a Yankees game? Is this what we're asking the possible mayor? You know?
- 15:06Testecleese: Oh, no.
- 15:07Ron Pascoe: Yeah, I think it's gonna be a strange race, mate. Without Curtis Sluwa in there.
- 15:12Ron Pascoe: I think he's gonna be… he's the dark horse, mate.
- 15:16Brian McFadden: He's… he's ruining… he's making it so Madani definitely wins.
- 15:20Testecleese: I think you're right, and I understand what the repeat offendee is telling us, is that if anyone besides Mondani's gonna win this, it'd be that guy.
- 15:28Testecleese: What?
- 15:29Brian McFadden: Homo's got more support than him.
- 15:33Testecleese: Well, he's already been… well, that's hilarious, he's already been the mayor.
- 15:37Testecleese: And they didn't care about him killing all, killing the grannies, they only cared about him grabbing the.
- 15:43Brian McFadden: That was when he was governor, not mayor.
- 15:46Testecleese: That's right, that was Governor! Oh my god, this is a demotion, isn't it?
- 15:50Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 15:52Testecleese: Geez, that'd be like running for president, being president, then running for governor.
- 15:56Testecleese: You know?
- 15:58Ron Pascoe: I wonder who tapped Eric Adams on the shoulder and said, mate, you've got no chance.
- 16:02Testecleese: Yeah, you're just wasting your time, dude.
- 16:08Testecleese: Well, there was a big storm in Alaska. You guys see any of this stuff?
- 16:14Ron Pascoe: what's that, huh?
- 16:16Testecleese: Known as two villages had to be 100% evacuated from these coast, from the coast.
- 16:22Ron Pascoe: Oh, shit.
- 16:23Testecleese: And I don't know…
- 16:25Ron Pascoe: how much anyone knows about Alaska, but it's.
- 16:29Testecleese: Very sparsely populated.
- 16:31Testecleese: And it's not easy to get places, you know?
- 16:37Ron Pascoe: I didn't see a casualty count, but anytime you go to evacuate… the best part is that it says… it even says… they're called villages. They're not even towns, they're villages.
- 16:46Testecleese: You know what I mean? Like, 150 people live in these places, so they can, like.
- 16:52Testecleese: Pull oil out of the ground, you know?
- 16:55Ron Pascoe: Hmm.
- 16:57Testecleese: Shit.
- 16:57Ron Pascoe: You're supposed to come from the people within your village, and that… they'd be only rescue for a while, wouldn't it?
- 17:03Testecleese: Yeah. Yeah.
- 17:05Testecleese: But I'm pretty sure that… I think, anyway, I think these… these particular places are just like, when they go, like, mining…
- 17:13Testecleese: in, like, the Arctic or something, guys will go, or here we go,
- 17:18Testecleese: oil rigs in, like, the North Atlantic. Guys will go there for, like.
- 17:22Testecleese: 6 months to a year at a time.
- 17:24Testecleese: And then not work for 2 years with all the money they make doing it, because it's just horrible conditions, and it's very dangerous, you know?
- 17:32Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 17:33Testecleese: God.
- 17:34Testecleese: There we go, Brian, do me a favor and, read the title of this next article.
- 17:40Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 17:41Testecleese: Alright.
- 17:42Brian McFadden: I love Hitler.
- 17:43Testecleese: Yes, thank you, that's… at least the clip is gonna be you saying it, not me.
- 17:52Testecleese: Yeah, you… I'm sure you heard about these, young Republican kids, the college kids and their text chain.
- 18:01Ron Pascoe: Yeah.
- 18:03Testecleese: First of all, it was clear that these guys were joking, like, no, they're racist Nazis. I'm like, no, they're…
- 18:11Testecleese: Some of these were pretty funny, like, the one when the guy was like, hey man, you still seeing that Indian girl? And he comes back with, oh, she wasn't Indian, she just didn't take a lot of showers.
- 18:21Brian McFadden: What?
- 18:22Testecleese: I laughed so hard at that!
- 18:26Ron Pascoe: Yeah, you know, just take the tooth out of each other.
- 18:29Testecleese: Yeah, I was like, it's off-color, don't get me wrong, but it was hilarious.
- 18:34Testecleese: But yeah, they… someone said something… sent something in there, actually said, like, I love Hitler about something, but it was… it…
- 18:42Testecleese: It was clearly supposed to be, like, they're being accused of this by the left.
- 18:47Testecleese: You know what I mean? It's like, oh, I… I don't want someone to kick in my door and, you know…
- 18:52Testecleese: you know, raped my family. I'm, you know, I love Hitler, you know?
- 18:59Testecleese: I don't know, some of these jokes were freaking hilarious, and then, JD Vance actually had something to say about all the stuff.
- 19:07Testecleese: Yeah. They keep that big a deal.
- 19:11Ron Pascoe: George swap a Doppler with.
- 19:13Testecleese: Yeah, well, yeah, but, like, This is what's pissing the Dems off right now, right?
- 19:20Testecleese: And all I… all I can think about is, like, your booze mean nothing to me, I've seen what makes you cheer.
- 19:28Testecleese: You know?
- 19:30Testecleese: Oh, that… who's that guy? Chris, what's his name, that Mangione killed? Or allegedly killed?
- 19:37Testecleese: You know, they cheat for that, they cheat for Charlie Kirk being murdered.
- 19:43Testecleese: But you're upset about some, inappropriate jokes that we told in a locker room between guys, you know what I mean?
- 19:49Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 19:51Ron Pascoe: I just don't think the left know how to deal with Trump this time, Trump 2.2.
- 19:57Ron Pascoe: He's got too many moving parts going on all the moment. Like, he's going left, right, and center, and they don't know which one to attack. They don't know where to go.
- 20:08Testecleese: That's exactly what Brian and I said, like, in his first month in office.
- 20:13Testecleese: List, Trump is doing so much shit at the same time, by the time the left reacts.
- 20:19Testecleese: It's already old news.
- 20:21Ron Pascoe: You know? Yeah.
- 20:22Testecleese: And he's kept doing it the whole time, basically.
- 20:27Ron Pascoe: Mike?
- 20:27Testecleese: Really?
- 20:28Ron Pascoe: He's just going… he's knocking everything down, isn't he? He's kicking goals, he's knocking things down.
- 20:33Ron Pascoe: Everything they put… look what he's done in, bloody, this Middle East peace deal.
- 20:37Testecleese: We have a whole topic to talk about.
- 20:39Brian McFadden: It's a whole territory.
- 20:41Ron Pascoe: But what I'm saying that is, I won't go into it, but while he's doing that, he's on the phone to bloody Putin, saying, how do you feel if I send bloody Zelensky some tomahawks?
- 20:51Testecleese: Yeah, yeah. And show them how to target Moscow. It's like, whoa!
- 20:57Ron Pascoe: He seems we've got a couple of hundred thousand surplus here.
- 21:00Testecleese: Well, like, his first time in office, when he was, like, you know, like, East… I can't remember what it was, but he said something up to Russia, he's like, oh, if you do this, I nuke Moscow.
- 21:08Testecleese: And he's like, I don't know if he believed me all the way. He was like, maybe 10%? Maybe that's enough to get him to stop doing it. I was like, whoa, Jesus Christ, dude!
- 21:18Ron Pascoe: Did you see the interview? I won't stick around this topic long. Did you see the interview when he's talking about when he's working with Putin in Alaska?
- 21:24Ron Pascoe: And he had the bombers go over the top, the bomber flew over the top of Putin.
- 21:28Testecleese: B2s over his head?
- 21:29Ron Pascoe: Yeah. And Putin turned around, apparently, and said to him, is that the one? He said, yeah, that's one we hit our own with.
- 21:39Ron Pascoe: That's true.
- 21:40Testecleese: Perfect.
- 21:41Ron Pascoe: That's a looter, that is a looter.
- 21:45Testecleese: Actually, it's interesting, because, didn't we just do something with some B2s in Venezuela?
- 21:51Brian McFadden: Yeah, we did a flyby.
- 21:52Ron Pascoe: Yes.
- 21:53Testecleese: Yeah.
- 21:54Testecleese: What's crazy is Venezuela probably didn't know until we told them.
- 21:59Testecleese: Well, just, Iran didn't know we had B-2s in their country until their nuclear, stuff blew up, right?
- 22:09Ron Pascoe: Oh, I'll love it, I'll love the dawn, I'll love the dawn.
- 22:12Testecleese: Oh, he's hilarious. Don't get me wrong, I have plenty to criticize the guy about, but the problem is the left.
- 22:18Testecleese: makes me keep defending Trump. Like, I love to criticize the government, I really do.
- 22:23Testecleese: But, like, Europe said he's deporting illegal migrants, like, I don't know what to tell you. Like, I could have been with you, saying, maybe we… maybe we could calm this down a little bit, but you guys are fucking rioting in the streets, like, I… I can't support that, you know?
- 22:36Ron Pascoe: Yeah, 100%.
- 22:38Testecleese: But it's funny, because they go and… it's been all the news, these kids, these young Republicans, I don't even remember what campus it was.
- 22:45Testecleese: It's been everywhere. And then there's this New Jersey high school.
- 22:50Testecleese: where this group of girls had a text chat going around. They were going to kill every last Jew.
- 22:56Testecleese: one of them was gonna dress up as Hitler for Halloween, and all the rest of her friends were gonna dress up like, exterminated Jews.
- 23:05Testecleese: And I'm like, these guys made a joke about…
- 23:09Testecleese: you know, black people, they made a joke about Indian people, they made a joke about wasps, you know? Just in case anyone doesn't know what a wasp is, it's a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant. It's Bryant, for God's sakes, you know?
- 23:23Testecleese: And these girls, instead of dressed like fucking Hitler on Halloween. Like, don't get me wrong, like, that would be a great costume in a costume contest, wouldn't it?
- 23:33Brian McFadden: Yeah… okay.
- 23:36Testecleese: But that's the thing, like, you're at the bar, judging, like, doing the conching contest, someone shows up like Hitler, you're like, okay, that took some balls, but I need to not be here anymore, you know?
- 23:47Brian McFadden: Yup, gotta go.
- 23:48Testecleese: I gotta be somewhere else!
- 23:52Testecleese: How big a deal is Halloween down under?
- 23:56Ron Pascoe: Yeah, so, same day as you, we celebrate, but we just follow you guys. It's not really big, it's just more like supermarkets are trying to market from it.
- 24:05Testecleese: Mmm.
- 24:06Ron Pascoe: Detroit, you know.
- 24:08Testecleese: Huge here. It's very American, though, let's be real.
- 24:12Brian McFadden: It's so huge, we're not gonna be able to do a show on Halloween.
- 24:16Ron Pascoe: Yeah. It is American Mike.
- 24:18Testecleese: Yeah, well, I gotta take my girls trick-or-treating. There's no way they're not dressing up in costumes to go and trick-or-treating.
- 24:25Testecleese: By the way, I got my costume ordered.
- 24:28Testecleese: I bought one instead of making one this year. I'm going to be Mothman.
- 24:32Brian McFadden: Oh.
- 24:33Testecleese: But, I thought being in West Virginia, Mothman was appropriate.
- 24:36Brian McFadden: It is.
- 24:37Ron Pascoe: You should have dressed up as Hitler.
- 24:39Brian McFadden: Are you gonna go trick-or-treat at the Mothman Museum?
- 24:43Testecleese: That's a hike.
- 24:44Brian McFadden: It's very far away.
- 24:45Testecleese: And it's interesting you say about dressing up like Hitler, because.
- 24:49Ron Pascoe: Brian, remember when we did that show, and you're like, holy crap, you're clean-shaven!
- 24:54Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 24:54Testecleese: I had shaven, like, 45 minutes before the show.
- 24:58Testecleese: when I left a Hitler stash, right? I come out of the bathroom, I look at the wife, and I was like, so what do you think about the,
- 25:05Testecleese: Charlie Chaplin mustache. She goes, no one's gonna think Charlie Chaplin
- 25:16Testecleese: And I was like, I don't know, I think I should do at least one show with this. She's like, no, it will be everywhere.
- 25:23Testecleese: It'll come back up someday!
- 25:26Ron Pascoe: You see what happened when Prince Harry dressed up as bloody, Hitler.
- 25:30Ron Pascoe: End out with Meghan Markle.
- 25:33Testecleese: Oh, God.
- 25:35Testecleese: But why did we let this guy ruin so much stuff? Like, why did we take away that, the Charlie Chaplin mustache because of this one guy? Why has no one named their kid Adolph since? We even skipped Adolph in the hurricane listings, like, names?
- 25:49Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 25:50Testecleese: People change their last names. I think there's one family named Hitler in the United States that refused to change their name.
- 25:57Testecleese: I'm like, one asshole ruins it for everybody, you know what I mean?
- 26:01Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 26:03Testecleese: And don't get me wrong, the guy was a big asshole, but…
- 26:07Testecleese: I don't know. To say the word… the name Adolph has to disappear forever now is crazy.
- 26:14Ron Pascoe: Okay.
- 26:15Testecleese: Alright, alright.
- 26:17Testecleese: Ow!
- 26:20Testecleese: Okay, so, The View, The View said that, they try to have Republicans on, but they're too scared to come. They said this to, RFK Jr.'s wife.
- 26:31Brian McFadden: Oh, yes, and I don't… do we have this? What do you got? What's the story you got? Go for it.
- 26:36Testecleese: Conservatives fire back after the view host says they're afraid, but .
- 26:41Brian McFadden: Yeah, Clay and Buck, I heard it, they said, hey.
- 26:43Testecleese: I was gonna say.
- 26:44Brian McFadden: their names are in this article. We were trying to get into the show, and you said you're overbooked, you know, you couldn't do it, it was the end of the season. And they keep saying, hey, we'll come on the show, we'll even have you guys come on our show.
- 26:57Testecleese: Yeah, they said it would be great to get both sides of this argument to listen to each other instead of echo chambers.
- 27:04Brian McFadden: Charlie Kirk style.
- 27:06Testecleese: Yeah.
- 27:07Brian McFadden: I'm not gonna… Whoopi Goldberg's not gonna do that. They're not gonna be on the show. She's… she's talking out of her ass, she doesn't know.
- 27:15Brian McFadden: Nobody wants to go on the show. I guarantee 95% of the conservatives, if they had a chance to go on The View, they would go on The View.
- 27:22Testecleese: Oh, in a heartbeat!
- 27:24Testecleese: Shoot, I don't consider myself conservative, starting to consider myself Republican at this point, but I would go on the view.
- 27:32Brian McFadden: Just to have a debate, because.
- 27:34Testecleese: Yeah.
- 27:34Brian McFadden: You love debating people.
- 27:37Ron Pascoe: Yeah, it's hell yeah.
- 27:38Testecleese: It's… yeah. But yeah, like, a bunch of these Republicans came out with receipts showing the emails of them trying to get on the show, and they're like, no, no, no, no.
- 27:48Testecleese: Come on, lady. You… you really think that JD Vance doesn't want to come on The View and put you all in your voice?
- 27:56Ron Pascoe: I reckon I know more than those witches on that show, mate.
- 28:00Brian McFadden: That's… yeah, I believe you do.
- 28:05Ron Pascoe: But did you see what it was? Did you even see that one when Judge Janine Pirot went on there, talking about a book, and they attacked us straight away about all these other policies?
- 28:12Testecleese: Yeah. Yeah, at least let her plug her book, right?
- 28:15Ron Pascoe: Who the hell's name was for?
- 28:17Testecleese: And then rip her apart.
- 28:19Testecleese: And… thing is, they don't do well when they have the Republicans on, because, like, their arguments are terrible. Like, just… it's all emotion, no real…
- 28:30Testecleese: For, what, how long did we run a segment on this show, Brian, that we always talked about The View on purpose, every week?
- 28:36Brian McFadden: You got mad at me! We had a whole theme music for it and everything.
- 28:39Testecleese: I know. But I was like, I'm done talking about these women!
- 28:45Brian McFadden: You tried to ban it, but I keep ringing it back randomly now.
- 28:50Testecleese: Is it?
- 28:50Brian McFadden: It's too entertaining. I mean, they're so ridiculous, you know? The shit they say is unbelievable.
- 28:59Testecleese: Yes, yes.
- 29:01Testecleese: Oh, goodness.
- 29:03Testecleese: And it's too bad, like, I thoroughly enjoyed a lot of Whoopi Goldberg's work over my lifetime.
- 29:10Brian McFadden: And then I don't care about it anymore, because she's ruined it with her political views. I'm like, be an actor, we don't care about your policy… your beliefs.
- 29:19Ron Pascoe: 100%. 100%, mate.
- 29:22Testecleese: Yeah, like, I watch Star… I love Star Trek, right?
- 29:24Brian McFadden: I love Star Trek, too. I watch all the new ones on Paramount+.
- 29:29Testecleese: Oh, Enterprise, is it?
- 29:31Testecleese: No, Strange New Worlds.
- 29:33Brian McFadden: Yep, yep, new season coming out soon. Next year.
- 29:37Testecleese: Oh, I was gonna say, I just finished a season.
- 29:39Brian McFadden: Yeah, they're filming a new one already.
- 29:41Testecleese: Yeah, yeah. But she was on Star Trek The Next Generation.
- 29:44Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 29:46Testecleese: And, you know what I mean? She was a great character on the show. Now, like, when I do… hey, let's watch some Star Trek, and I see her, I'm like, oh, I just… I hate when she speaks, you know?
- 29:56Ron Pascoe: Why can't I remember her name? I keep wanting to say Uhura, but Uhura's the.
- 30:00Brian McFadden: No, no, it wasn't Jora, she was the bartender.
- 30:04Testecleese: Yeah, and she was, like, not an empath, she was one of those people that lives, like, 5,000 years or something like that.
- 30:10Testecleese: Just like the one on the new season, the new series.
- 30:15Testecleese: The old lady with the underwater voice?
- 30:19Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 30:19Testecleese: You know what… yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
- 30:22Testecleese: Yeah, Uhura's the, the one with the weird earpiece that speaks, like, 30 languages.
- 30:27Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 30:28Testecleese: Yeah.
- 30:30Testecleese: You know what, though? I could not get into…
- 30:33Testecleese: Well, what was the one that was set the furthest into the future?
- 30:39Brian McFadden: Oh, with, janeway?
- 30:44Testecleese: No, no, I liked Voyager, actually. They were just trying to get home. I liked that one. There was another one that came out after that. There was a black woman captain. The main character was, like, her daughter or something?
- 30:55Testecleese: Or… No, never mind, that's… that's from Below Decks, the cartoon one.
- 31:02Testecleese: But the main character in this one was a black woman, too, and she, like, got some weird angel armor that she went out into space alone, traveled through time.
- 31:11Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 31:13Testecleese: Yeah, I watched most of it, and I was like, I just, I can't do this anymore, it's gotten too ridiculous even for Star Trek, you know?
- 31:19Testecleese: That's saying a lot right there. Yeah, Star Trek's supposed to be ridiculous, right?
- 31:24Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 31:24Testecleese: In Star Trek, communism works, right?
- 31:28Brian McFadden: Yeah, so that's what they're all about.
- 31:36Testecleese: So, apparently we've had some, Medicaid… I don't know if the fraud's the right word?
- 31:43Testecleese: But, $32 million, potentially anyway, has been paid out into ineligible people in West Virginia. Some were dead.
- 31:55Brian McFadden: Where'd the money go?
- 31:56Ron Pascoe: Whoa.
- 31:56Testecleese: Excellent question.
- 31:59Testecleese: Excellent question. I saw this, and I got frustrated as hell. And Europe, they shut the government down over, like, Medicaid, right?
- 32:07Brian McFadden: No, they're shutting it… well, the.
- 32:09Testecleese: That's their argument, right?
- 32:11Brian McFadden: No, it's not Medicaid, it's Obamacare. The COVID-related subsidies that they… the Dems put in place in order to get them through.
- 32:21Testecleese: That's the.
- 32:21Brian McFadden: They had to put a time limit on them. They couldn't make them permanent to get them through, because they used the rescission process to get them approved, and now they're expiring, and everybody's freaking out about how much Obamacare's gonna cost. I thought that Obamacare.
- 32:37Testecleese: Affordable Care.
- 32:38Brian McFadden: for it. I thought it was called the Affordable Care, so if people can't afford it, then maybe we need to rethink the Affordable Care Act.
- 32:45Ron Pascoe: 100%. Was it the end of the year?
- 32:48Brian McFadden: All the promises that…
- 32:50Brian McFadden: President Obama gave us, when they pushed it through, oh, you can keep your doctor, it's gonna be…
- 32:57Testecleese: Like your doctor, keep your doctor.
- 32:59Brian McFadden: It's gonna be great, you know, we're gonna be better for healthcare, you're gonna have more access, got none of that.
- 33:07Testecleese: Rates went… rates went up, and then if you didn't have health insurance because you couldn't afford it, they fined you.
- 33:13Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, the fines never really took effect.
- 33:15Testecleese: Oh, I didn't realize that. I know they were going to. I… I…
- 33:18Testecleese: I've had TRICARE since this whole Affordable Care Act thing started, you know what I mean?
- 33:23Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, we're spoiled with TRICARE.
- 33:26Testecleese: But yeah.
- 33:27Ron Pascoe: Once the end of the year, it runs out, isn't it?
- 33:29Testecleese: What's that?
- 33:30Ron Pascoe: Isn't it the end of the year it runs out?
- 33:32Brian McFadden: Yeah, the subsidies, yeah.
- 33:34Testecleese: Yep.
- 33:35Testecleese: Yep. And, yeah.
- 33:37Testecleese: And we all know that.
- 33:38Brian McFadden: And, but the problem with these subsidies were also put in place where anybody with any income could get a subsidy.
- 33:46Brian McFadden: So you can make $200,000 a year, and you got a subsidy for your Obamacare policy.
- 33:52Testecleese: Yeah.
- 33:53Testecleese: Yeah, well, you should be buying your own at that point.
- 33:55Brian McFadden: Yeah. If you can afford it, you should be valuing… paying for it instead of getting a subsidy.
- 34:00Brian McFadden: And they weren't checking… For illegals, so…
- 34:04Brian McFadden: You know, they can say that illegals weren't having access to it, but okay.
- 34:10Testecleese: Well, here's the problem, is they never said illegal aliens, they said undocumented migrants. The problem is, as soon as they get into the system, documents are created, and they are no longer undocumented. However.
- 34:21Brian McFadden: Right.
- 34:21Testecleese: They are still illegal.
- 34:24Testecleese: And that's why they do this little shift of words all the time.
- 34:30Ron Pascoe: Yeah, weren't they given driver's license in bloody Illinois or, California?
- 34:34Ron Pascoe: California gave a dude a CDL that killed a family of immigrants, too!
- 34:39Ron Pascoe: Yeah.
- 34:39Brian McFadden: I thought it was Florida.
- 34:41Testecleese: Well, they got their CDL in California and killed them in Florida.
- 34:44Ron Pascoe: California.
- 34:45Brian McFadden: Oh, okay, alright, alright.
- 34:46Testecleese: Yeah. And that was the second license he had. Didn't he get one, like.
- 34:50Testecleese: Oregon before that, that expired or something?
- 34:54Ron Pascoe: Pretty much think so, mate, yeah.
- 34:56Testecleese: What's hilarious, I just saw an article about a guy's driver's license. A CDL actually said, no name given, as the guy's fucking name.
- 35:05Brian McFadden: That's not a name.
- 35:06Testecleese: And I was like, oh.
- 35:10Testecleese: Now this guy's driving a 16-wheeler that weighs, like, 6 tons, you know what I mean?
- 35:19Testecleese: I just, I don't know, I see so many trucks driving through where I am, because I'm in, coal and lumber country.
- 35:26Testecleese: So, like, we got granite quarries, everything, all that stuff, coal mines.
- 35:32Testecleese: And I see these giant trucks driving by with just literal tons and tons and tons of stone and them, or…
- 35:39Testecleese: entire tree, like, dozens of trees on these trucks that are linked, you know, trailers are linked together, and you're like, holy crap, like, I saw Final Destination, and I thought that was terrifying on that log here.
- 35:50Brian McFadden: Now you're living it.
- 35:52Testecleese: Yeah, I'm driving behind the guy all the time, and that's not just the frickin' telephone ball thing, this is a…
- 35:57Testecleese: You know, 6 feet… no, not 6 feet, 4 feet around tree, you know?
- 36:03Ron Pascoe: cats away, mate. Go to Pet Cemetery.
- 36:06Testecleese: Mmm… yes. And speaking of, dude, I was thinking about just yesterday, about where I…
- 36:13Testecleese: grew up in the house that I left to come here.
- 36:17Testecleese: I was like, how many pets have I buried in that yard? Like, for real. And I thought about it over all the years, and then I was thinking even… I was like, even more closely when I moved back for a little while.
- 36:29Testecleese: I buried…
- 36:30Ron Pascoe: 1, 2, 3…
- 36:33Testecleese: I heard 4 pets in 5 years, and one of them just, one cat just didn't come home.
- 36:40Testecleese: And I'm like.
- 36:41Testecleese: If whoever moves in here decides to try to, like, level out this area of the backyard.
- 36:47Brian McFadden: Learn for a surprise.
- 36:48Testecleese: they're gonna dig up these pets, you know? It's gonna be terrible when they open up one big one that's got, you know, like, two dogs in it with, like, squeaky toys buried with them, you know?
- 36:59Testecleese: Actually, you know if you dug that up in your backyard, you'd be like, oh, this is awesome!
- 37:07Ron Pascoe: Go on next life or something, but…
- 37:10Testecleese: Poking at the bones, we're like, oh man, that's so cool.
- 37:13Ron Pascoe: $4,000 story.
- 37:17Testecleese: We just had a big fire down in, in town.
- 37:21Testecleese: This old hotel that's,
- 37:25Testecleese: No one's… no one's been there for a long time.
- 37:28Testecleese: caught on fire. They're saying the fire's not on the third floor, which means… and they're almost certain it was squatters.
- 37:34Brian McFadden: Of course.
- 37:36Testecleese: But it was crazy, dude, like, they couldn't get anywhere, it shut everything down.
- 37:40Testecleese: And what really got me was, I'm looking at the pictures, because some dude had his own drone.
- 37:47Testecleese: And he went up there and was, like, livestreaming this thing through a Facebook page. I was like, oh, oh, cool!
- 37:54Testecleese: And I'm looking at it, I'm like, oh, I think that's the RNC headquarters.
- 37:59Testecleese: And I was like, oh, oh, fuck, it is. It's the building next to it.
- 38:05Testecleese: Because at first, I thought that it was, like, a terror thing, like, you know, like, fuck the Republicans.
- 38:10Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 38:10Testecleese: Which… You don't get a lot of far lefties. I say.
- 38:15Testecleese: And that's the problem, dude, is… I keep saying far left to refer to the nutjobs, but the problem is these nutjobs that are doing the crazy things, like killing people and lighting fires, have the same beliefs as your mainstream Democrats.
- 38:31Testecleese: Like, like Charlie Kirk, it was over, like, trans issues. That's, like, the biggest… one of the biggest issues that Democrats have right now, you know?
- 38:39Testecleese: I'm sorry.
- 38:41Brian McFadden: I don't know if we have it in here, but I saw an article this week that said that, magically, people are tonifying as trans in high schools and middle schools is way down.
- 38:51Testecleese: I saw that. I saw that, it's dropping.
- 38:55Testecleese: Yeah, the trend is ending.
- 38:58Ron Pascoe: It's not getting pumped all the time. Did you guys see that new News Nation interview?
- 39:02Ron Pascoe: The Tent Hall at Trinity Center?
- 39:05Brian McFadden: I don't watch NewsNation that often.
- 39:06Ron Pascoe: Cuomo, what's his name? Smith?
- 39:10Ron Pascoe: And, Bill O'Reilly posted it, and they had, well, a few… they had Democrats and Republicans on there. They had Jim Jordan, Fetterman, they even had Joe Manson on there.
- 39:22Ron Pascoe: And, O'Reilly turned around, and he said to Fetterman, he goes, Yeah, Jay mentioned.
- 39:28Brian McFadden: Yeah, you're ex-senator.
- 39:30Testecleese: I gotta say, he was… he used to be the senator here.
- 39:33Ron Pascoe: Yeah. Well, he turned around, and actually, he was governor too, wasn't he?
- 39:38Testecleese: No, just Senator. Not that I'm aware of. Doesn't mean he didn't at one point, though.
- 39:43Ron Pascoe: Yeah. Anyway, O'Reilly, Bill O'Reilly, turned around to Fetterman, he says.
- 39:48Ron Pascoe: he's spewing all this stuff, and he goes, what do you believe in? What's your beliefs? And anyway, Fetterman's answering you back.
- 39:54Ron Pascoe: And he goes, mate, you should be a Republican, not a Democrat.
- 39:58Testecleese: That's… I… and you know what? Maybe that's where I saw a lot of stuff come from, was that particular interview, because I saw all sorts of stuff coming about how, he's like, he's not leaving the Democrat Party, and, you know, he's gonna try to reform it.
- 40:12Testecleese: That's probably exactly what started the whole thing, then.
- 40:16Ron Pascoe: Yeah, well, he turned around, and Floyd Federman said, he goes, I'm the only Democrat in my family.
- 40:20Ron Pascoe: he said, what I don't get into is all… everyone, all these people calling Republicans Nazis and fascists and all that. He says, the people I grew up with are new and know.
- 40:31Testecleese: People I love.
- 40:33Ron Pascoe: They're decent people, you know?
- 40:35Ron Pascoe: He said, one thing I won't…
- 40:37Testecleese: I'm calling my friends and my family Nazis, come on, you know?
- 40:42Ron Pascoe: And that's what they need to do. People like Fetterman and that need to stand up. This is the only way you're going to bring the temperature down.
- 40:48Brian McFadden: They're not… they don't care about the…
- 40:51Ron Pascoe: No.
- 40:51Testecleese: I've started something new I'm trying concerning all of that.
- 40:55Testecleese: I am going… today was the first day I posted it, I think I'm gonna try to do this every week or so, but I'm gonna post, that the Nazis are not real.
- 41:04Testecleese: They used to be… 80 years ago, but there's no infrastructure, there's no hierarchy, there's no leadership.
- 41:13Testecleese: It's just an idea, just like Antifa.
- 41:17Testecleese: Yeah, I don't.
- 41:18Ron Pascoe: That's a book.
- 41:19Testecleese: I had one guy tell me that Antifa has never been a thing. I was like, actually, that's why they sing Bella Chao.
- 41:26Testecleese: Is it…
- 41:27Testecleese: for the love of God, this was an actual organization in Europe during World War II, just like the fucking Nazis, you know?
- 41:36Ron Pascoe: We've got uniforms and marketing gear, and…
- 41:39Testecleese: And that's the thing, dude, I can go.
- 41:41Brian McFadden: If you ask ChatGB… if you ask ChatGB about it, they did it on the Noise Agenda Show, it comes out and says that Antifa is not an actual group, it's a loosely affiliated bunch of people. They don't have actual leadership.
- 41:56Testecleese: So was it fucking ISIS and Al-Qaeda!
- 42:00Testecleese: Right?
- 42:03Testecleese: They do that intentionally so that you can't cut the head off the snake.
- 42:08Ron Pascoe: Sorry?
- 42:10Testecleese: Alright, go ahead, go ahead.
- 42:12Ron Pascoe: I was just gonna say, Siri was programmed by Google as well, too, wasn't she?
- 42:16Ron Pascoe: Didn't she come up with some weird facts?
- 42:18Testecleese: I honestly don't know, I never checked, but Siri…
- 42:22Testecleese: Actually, I don't even have access to Siri, I don't think.
- 42:25Brian McFadden: Siri doesn't do anything near, like, chat. She's not AI.
- 42:31Brian McFadden: Apple hasn't really figured out the whole AI thing, like ChatGBT and all the other companies.
- 42:37Testecleese: It kind of is AI, just like when you play against the chess, against the computer. It's AN AI, it's just a very…
- 42:48Ron Pascoe: It's artificial intelligence, I tell you all.
- 42:49Testecleese: Yeah, it's just not very advanced, right?
- 42:54Testecleese: Speaking of, what's gonna happen when we actually have, like, robots doing all of our physical work for us?
- 43:02Brian McFadden: Louis van.
- 43:04Testecleese: Maybe, but, like…
- 43:06Testecleese: it's gonna be funny when someone… when John Deere comes, answers the question, who's gonna pick the crops? And John Deere comes out and says, oh, our new model, Juan Deer 3000, will pick your crops for you.
- 43:22Ron Pascoe: Come on, that was a good setup, wasn't it? Yeah. Yeah, they're not gonna take a dump 30 minutes after you clock on, are they?
- 43:29Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, the robot goes, I sure am tired, boss. You go, shut the fuck up, get back to work, I have 3 more batteries and another 2 tricky chargers, alright?
- 43:44Testecleese: It's a good thing I'm not running for office, because some of the things I say here, right?
- 43:48Brian McFadden: Hmm.
- 43:50Testecleese: Which is hilarious. Could you imagine if I actually ran for, like, a local office?
- 43:55Testecleese: And whoever I would be running against.
- 43:57Brian McFadden: Pound of Joe?
- 43:58Testecleese: No, they never found the show. They'd just be like, slipped right under that radar!
- 44:04Brian McFadden: Hallelujah! Yeah, right?
- 44:09Testecleese: But you know me, if I did something like that, and I made, like, campaign signs, I'd put a QR code that would take you right to the show, and you know it.
- 44:18Testecleese: Hey, if you don't want me to do the job for you, don't vote for me, you know what I mean?
- 44:24Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 44:26Testecleese: You like what I am saying? I've put my views out there plenty over the last several years, so you know what you're gonna get.
- 44:33Ron Pascoe: change, you know, to Pedro.
- 44:36Ron Pascoe: Well, here, no. Here, I might want to change my name to, like.
- 44:41Testecleese: Smith or Johnson. So I fit in with everyone else. Like, you have an English name. Oh, okay.
- 44:48Ron Pascoe: I know, Phil.
- 44:51Testecleese: Adolph.
- 44:53Ron Pascoe: Adolph Johnson.
- 44:55Testecleese: That would be hilarious.
- 44:59Testecleese: Anyway, moving back on to Local, after we've been at… we've been at this for, like, 15 minutes, and we haven't got past the local news yet.
- 45:08Ron Pascoe: That's why I'm gonna bring a recruit defender on that.
- 45:10Testecleese: Yeah, but we were talking about Halloween, and apparently Virginia is one of the top 5
- 45:16Testecleese: Halloween-obsessed states right now.
- 45:19Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 45:20Testecleese: Yeah, Cooper shared that. I was hoping he'd be able to
- 45:23Testecleese: Follow up, hoping he'd read the article.
- 45:26Testecleese: But that's okay. I didn't say much, just people are excited.
- 45:30Testecleese: everyone, decorates, they go to parties, they give out candy, yada yada, yeah.
- 45:37Brian McFadden: I'll have myself a good Halloween party.
- 45:40Testecleese: Well, it's be… it's a… it's an excuse for, like.
- 45:46Testecleese: Young women to wear almost no clothes in cold weather.
- 45:51Testecleese: And they do it.
- 45:52Brian McFadden: My wife dresses up as a chicken, so…
- 45:55Testecleese: There you go.
- 45:56Brian McFadden: Just go to those inflatable chicken costumes.
- 46:00Testecleese: So, you're gonna tell everyone that, at the party, you're gonna be like, hey, would you, like to see my big cock?
- 46:08Testecleese: You're like, I might now!
- 46:13Brian McFadden: So, Norfolk spent a ton of money on this, this beach ramp in Ocean View to, make sure emergency vehicles could get down to the beach.
- 46:24Testecleese: Yeah.
- 46:25Brian McFadden: They spent $430,000 on this thing.
- 46:29Testecleese: Okay. How long's it been there? Because I don't remember ever seeing something like this when I was in Virginia.
- 46:37Brian McFadden: I don't know, it's making me log in here…
- 46:40Testecleese: Well, somewhere in the article, it says they barely finished building it.
- 46:43Brian McFadden: Yeah, I think it's fairly new.
- 46:46Testecleese: They had to tear it down because of, what, like, tide damage or something?
- 46:50Brian McFadden: Erosion.
- 46:52Testecleese: So it was built really shitty.
- 46:56Testecleese: Like, you… I mean, we have techniques to avoid.
- 47:01Testecleese: erosion from being that fast, you know what I mean?
- 47:04Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 47:06Testecleese: Well, I mean, this thing was like a pier, right?
- 47:08Brian McFadden: Yeah, they're blaming it on global warming.
- 47:12Testecleese: What the fuck does that have to do with the fact that you didn't dig a hole and put concrete down in the seabed, and instead put toasts
- 47:22Testecleese: on silt.
- 47:24Testecleese: You know, at that point, you may as well have done a floating pier, because those exist.
- 47:30Testecleese: Right? And they… They work very well.
- 47:34Testecleese: Now, don't get me wrong, it might be… you might have to make the thing huge to get an ambulance down at Safeway, but come on.
- 47:41Testecleese: Shit, Brian, you've been on the FAF, the Floating Accommodation facility.
- 47:45Brian McFadden: That was a show.
- 47:49Testecleese: It was, it was. They wanted me to sleep on that thing on duty days. And I was like, those are bed bugs. They're like, that's gross, like, well, you can't, you can't go to the ship and sleep. I was like, fuck you!
- 48:03Testecleese: you go ahead and find me in my birthing in the middle of the night, and come tell me I gotta go sleep in bedbugs, and I'll just stay up all night, you know?
- 48:10Testecleese: But that was an entire floating building.
- 48:15Testecleese: Anyway, they tore this thing down. Are they gonna rebuild it, or are they gonna try something new, or just say, oh well, use ATVs like Baywatch?
- 48:26Brian McFadden: They're not planning on rebuilding it, no.
- 48:28Ron Pascoe: Here's.
- 48:30Testecleese: Such a giant waste of, taxpayer money.
- 48:33Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 48:35Testecleese: Ocean View.
- 48:38Testecleese: Okay.
- 48:39Brian McFadden: Or Greeny's was.
- 48:41Testecleese: Okay, thank you. I was like, I… I know Ocean View, I know the name of the road.
- 48:48Brian McFadden: El Guapo lives in Ocean View.
- 48:52Testecleese: Does he… jeez, isn't that stupid expensive?
- 48:56Brian McFadden: Well, he doesn't have beachfront property.
- 48:58Testecleese: Okay, okay, okay, okay.
- 49:01Testecleese: Just like beachfront property in Virginia Beach is through the roof, but you move, 4 miles from the beach, and it's the frickin' ghetto dump, right?
- 49:13Brian McFadden: dope.
- 49:14Testecleese: Yeah, so Greenies, I always wear, like, Jillian's, and, Have a Nice Day, and all those other bars that got shut down, right?
- 49:22Brian McFadden: Yeah, there's new things in their place now at Waterside.
- 49:27Testecleese: Did anyone ever replace the Thirsty Camel?
- 49:30Brian McFadden: Nope. It burned down and never got replaced. It's just an empty lot there.
- 49:35Brian McFadden: And Greeny's got bought by the city of Norfolk and turned into a parking lot. You know the tax revenue that parking lot's bringing in for the city now?
- 49:44Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 49:44Testecleese: Oh, sure. Yeah, tons of it, tons of it.
- 49:47Testecleese: I'm white!
- 49:50Testecleese: The Thirsty Camel, man.
- 49:53Brian McFadden: I never actually been in there, so…
- 49:55Testecleese: Oh, one, they had a big pier out, a big deck.
- 49:59Testecleese: Giant deck out back, over the water, right?
- 50:03Testecleese: And then a period go out and go… they would literally catch fish.
- 50:07Brian McFadden: Yeah, they still have the… the fishing pier's still there. And there's a restaurant on the pier, too, but…
- 50:13Testecleese: Yeah, I was gonna say, they would cook the fucking fish you caught!
- 50:16Brian McFadden: knife.
- 50:17Ron Pascoe: And the…
- 50:18Testecleese: And, this was back when Virginia allowed smoking in bars as long as they were separate completely from non-smoking.
- 50:25Brian McFadden: They still do that, they still have that.
- 50:27Testecleese: Okay.
- 50:28Brian McFadden: There's just not that many bars that.
- 50:30Testecleese: Yeah.
- 50:32Brian McFadden: do it.
- 50:32Testecleese: the thirsty Camel…
- 50:34Brian McFadden: Greeny's had a non-smoking suction.
- 50:36Testecleese: Oh, no, no, no, but the Thirsty Campbell in particular had a, like a phone booth.
- 50:42Brian McFadden: Yeah, a lot of ways do that.
- 50:44Testecleese: Yeah, within the.
- 50:44Brian McFadden: non-smoking section.
- 50:46Testecleese: That's your non-smoking section. We want this… we're inviting the smokers to come here to drink.
- 50:52Testecleese: Yes.
- 50:53Testecleese: I know it looks like I smoke a billion cigarettes. Realistically, I go through 6 times as many cigarettes doing this show as any other time.
- 51:01Brian McFadden: So, this show drives you to smoke.
- 51:03Testecleese: It's the drinking beer.
- 51:05Testecleese: Makes me want to add, and…
- 51:07Testecleese: Yeah, it makes me want to have a smoke, and the talking makes me want to smoke.
- 51:12Testecleese: And which is why these bars did so great. You go there with your buddies, bullshit, drink some beers, you know? As long as you didn't light up a cigar, nobody complained, you know?
- 51:21Brian McFadden: Right.
- 51:23Testecleese: I just get cigars. It's just so thick and stinky. You have to go to a special place for that kind of thing where everyone's cool with it, you know? Yeah. But just like the Thirsty Camel was the place to go if you wanted to smoke a cigarette, or,
- 51:37Testecleese: Quaker Steak and Lube.
- 51:39Brian McFadden: Gone.
- 51:42Testecleese: The whole place, or just the smoking section?
- 51:44Brian McFadden: No, the whole place is gone. It's now a faux shop.
- 51:49Brian McFadden: Yeah, they finally shut down.
- 51:51Testecleese: when I went to Pennsylvania.
- 51:54Brian McFadden: Did you go to Hershey?
- 51:55Testecleese: I stayed in, York, I think.
- 51:58Brian McFadden: And you filed a Quaker St. Louis?
- 52:00Testecleese: we drove by on our way to our hotel, and I was like, it's within, like, 5 miles of where we're staying, we're going to the Lou, you know?
- 52:07Brian McFadden: What'd she say?
- 52:09Testecleese: Oh, she was more excited than I was.
- 52:10Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 52:11Testecleese: So we went in there and got some wings.
- 52:14Testecleese: Oh my god, so…
- 52:15Brian McFadden: Watch some UFC…
- 52:18Testecleese: Yeah, right, well.
- 52:21Testecleese: That… Now, where do we usually go to watch UFC fights?
- 52:25Brian McFadden: Most… we started out at Quaker St. Lube, and then we think we ended up at Hooters.
- 52:31Testecleese: We did Hooters for a little while, because it was cheap.
- 52:33Brian McFadden: Yeah, and then we went to Quaker St. Lube.
- 52:36Testecleese: Yeah, and I guess when there's somewhere after that, but…
- 52:39Testecleese: Maybe I am thinking of Hooters.
- 52:41Testecleese: Because I know we never went to the Green Turtle.
- 52:44Brian McFadden: They didn't have it when you were down here, but they do now.
- 52:48Brian McFadden: Of course, oh, they're still open, thank God! Yeah, they're still open when you come in to visit!
- 52:52Testecleese: Alright.
- 52:53Testecleese: Okay, we've officially finished purchasing the house next door. The mother-in-law can move into that house, which means.
- 53:02Brian McFadden: She already moved!
- 53:03Testecleese: No, no, no, are you kidding me? She got, no, she got… she got sick right over… as soon as we were ready to start moving her shit, she got sick, because of the season change. Not talking trash, that happens in general.
- 53:14Brian McFadden: Oh my gosh, if you're living in Florida for your life, and then you move to West Virginia, people ain't used to winter in Florida.
- 53:23Brian McFadden: I mean, if it gets below 70 in Florida, people are breaking out their winter coats.
- 53:28Testecleese: So that, and it's a different, biome, it's a different life, different things you're gonna catch in a different area, right? That your body has no immunities to.
- 53:39Testecleese: So she was down, like, 3 weeks, which is…
- 53:42Testecleese: We… I was actually genuinely worried. I had to keep reminding the wife. I was like, hey, your mom needs to eat juice. Well, she feels sick. I was like, she's diabetic. She needs to eat.
- 53:52Testecleese: And not just that, it's like, if she, you know.
- 53:55Testecleese: The food helps you fight the illness.
- 53:57Testecleese: But, we're finally gonna start moving her stuff. I hope I get it out before winter starts, because I just don't want to deal with all the stuff sitting in my garage.
- 54:07Testecleese: But…
- 54:09Testecleese: Either way, it's probably not going to be until spring until I drive to Virginia to get the rest of my stuff, because I'm not hauling a trailer across mountain roads in the ice, you know what I mean?
- 54:19Testecleese: Yeah.
- 54:20Brian McFadden: That'd be exciting! Smoke some weed right before you hit the mountains.
- 54:24Testecleese: Friggin' jackknife.
- 54:28Testecleese: But… but when I get over there, and I am… I'm bringing my little token key… keychain thing that has my mug number on it.
- 54:36Ron Pascoe: What?
- 54:37Testecleese: Be like, boom, I have one of the original mugs, that one's mine. I know no one else has drank out of my mug.
- 54:42Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 54:43Testecleese: Because mine actually has a number.
- 54:45Brian McFadden: Yeah, they stopped putting numbers on the mugs now, but I still have a number on mine.
- 54:50Testecleese: That's because they just wash mugs out now and give them to people. No, I have my own mug.
- 54:54Testecleese: And it's hanging up. I… and shit! You were there when I got mine, right?
- 54:59Brian McFadden: No, you got yours before I got mine. You're the one that told me about the deal!
- 55:03Testecleese: Okay, I'm saying, because my mug is below number 100.
- 55:08Brian McFadden: 328! Yeah.
- 55:10Testecleese: I think it's 93 or so.
- 55:13Brian McFadden: Now they got a deal where you pay $100 a year at one time, and I get a $25 credit to go in there and eat every single month for 12 months.
- 55:26Testecleese: So as long as you use it, you make money.
- 55:29Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 55:30Testecleese: money, and they make money, right?
- 55:32Brian McFadden: Yeah, because I'm in there, you know?
- 55:35Testecleese: And while you're there, you're drinking out of your mug.
- 55:37Brian McFadden: Exactly, so I'm paying. It always, it always… it runs around… I usually spend, like, $10, $15 with food and tip, you know, when I go in there each month.
- 55:48Testecleese: Alright, so you get, like, a burger and a beer or something.
- 55:51Testecleese: Okay.
- 55:52Brian McFadden: Yeah. Yeah.
- 55:53Testecleese: And I… I know you were with me when this happened, because we would…
- 55:58Testecleese: We were arguing about how there's no way this mug holds a pint.
- 56:02Testecleese: And the bartender.
- 56:05Brian McFadden: They still do that on occasion, when people question it, you know? They still do that.
- 56:09Testecleese: I was like, oh, you got me!
- 56:11Testecleese: The taper of that mug is more just.
- 56:13Brian McFadden: Yeah. The taper of that glass is more deceiving than I thought it was, you know? Yup.
- 56:18Testecleese: But yeah, right in front of me, I was like, oh… Alright!
- 56:21Testecleese: Yeah, what, I pay, like, half price? I get happy hour.
- 56:24Brian McFadden: Dollar off.
- 56:27Testecleese: I thought I signed up for happy hour prizes.
- 56:29Brian McFadden: Well, it's a dollar off now.
- 56:33Testecleese: Well, that's not what I… Yeah, I probably don't have any paperwork saying what the fuck is going on.
- 56:38Brian McFadden: No, that was… that was a long time ago.
- 56:42Brian McFadden: I don't even know if they ever provided paperwork, they just told you what the deal was.
- 56:46Testecleese: They handed me a little thing for my keychain, so I go, my mug?
- 56:50Brian McFadden: I don't even have that anymore, I got the app.
- 56:53Testecleese: I didn't know they had an app. Well, yeah, it's funny, because I just found this thing, like, 3 months ago. It was in one of my old wallets, because it had broken off of my keychain.
- 57:01Brian McFadden: Nice, nice.
- 57:04Testecleese: I know.
- 57:04Ron Pascoe: crit off at Six Point.
- 57:06Testecleese: Meh.
- 57:06Testecleese: I just know that if I go in there, and don't even have my little doohickey, I could just say, like.
- 57:13Testecleese: Mine has the Red Sox and the Bruins sticker on the mug. You know?
- 57:18Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 57:21Testecleese: Man, I missed that place. The food was good, the beer was good, the crew.
- 57:24Brian McFadden: Food's still good. Food's still pretty good.
- 57:27Testecleese: And there's always a game on, there's, like, 30 televisions, and they're all in different games.
- 57:33Testecleese: the NFL Network, NHL Network, MLB.
- 57:37Brian McFadden: He's…
- 57:37Testecleese: they'd be like, hey, can we watch the Bruins game over here? And, you know.
- 57:40Brian McFadden: I'm like, sometimes I still like to go there and watch NFL. I sit at a booth when I watch my game, because then I can turn the volume up on the TV a little bit. They know… I'm a regular in that, I've been going there for years, so…
- 57:53Testecleese: That's gonna drive me nuts, dude.
- 57:55Testecleese: What the hell is the hockey team in Detroit? Red Wings!
- 57:58Brian McFadden: Yeah, the Red Wings.
- 57:59Testecleese: Sorry, it was driving me… driving me nuts. Well, I was gonna say, like, we would go in there and be like, hey, can we put the Bruins over here, and the Red Wings over there, you know?
- 58:07Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 58:10Testecleese: Oh, which is funny, made me think of Eric Lindros.
- 58:13Testecleese: That's an old man now, huh?
- 58:16Testecleese: But speaking of shit like that, Nolan Ryan is, like, 80 years old, 80-something years old now.
- 58:22Testecleese: He just did an opening pitch for a baseball game and threw it 86 miles an hour.
- 58:27Brian McFadden: L86.
- 58:29Testecleese: 80s… That's like…
- 58:32Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 58:33Testecleese: Better than high school baseball players, almost as good as your best college pictures.
- 58:41Testecleese: Well, the world record now is, like, a, what, 103 mile an hour pitch?
- 58:46Testecleese: Randy Johnson used to have it when he broke 100, but anyway!
- 58:50Audio shared by Brian McFadden: What do you got here, Barry? Secretary Kristi Noem blaming Democrats for the federal government shutdown.
- 58:55Audio shared by Brian McFadden: is ready to roll out at airport TSA security checkpoints. However, some airports are refusing to play it, including one in our area. Norfolk International Airport confirms to News 3.
- 59:10Brian McFadden: Most liberal areas where the airports are.
- 59:12Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Leaders sent a statement saying, in part, quote.
- 59:16Audio shared by Brian McFadden: The Norfolk Airport Authority's long-standing practice is to decline political.
- 59:22Brian McFadden: I just… I thought it was gonna play the fucking announcement. Fuck that shit, I don't wanna care about that. I wanted to hear the actual.
- 59:28Testecleese: Hold on, hold on. The Norfolk International Airport's primary, whatever, is declined to get involved with political messaging? Dear God, how long did they play CNN?
- 59:39Brian McFadden: That's because CNN was paying them to have it on there. They were making buku bucks to have it on.
- 59:49Testecleese: Oh my god.
- 59:50Brian McFadden: That's the only thing that kept CNN ratings high as long as it was.
- 59:54Testecleese: It really was, though, like, when that stopped, they're like, wow, like, 20 million televisions just shut off CNN all at once and never turned it back on.
- 1:00:02Brian McFadden: Yeah, I've never, ever.
- 1:00:07Testecleese: Oh my god.
- 1:00:09Testecleese: Why was failure.
- 1:00:11Testecleese: Yeah!
- 1:00:12Brian McFadden: Sorry.
- 1:00:13Testecleese: That's… It's alright, there we go. Again, should I put this in local, follow-up, or what?
- 1:00:22Brian McFadden: I ended up making a tiny little topic, but it'll flow here.
- 1:00:26Testecleese: We've been talking about, again, so much shit in Virginia.
- 1:00:29Testecleese: We've been talking about, what, Loudoun and Fairfax counties, right? Yeah. With the trans stuff?
- 1:00:36Testecleese: Well, looks like the court has stopped the schools from disciplining the boys who, don't want girls in their locker rooms.
- 1:00:44Brian McFadden: Hallelujah.
- 1:00:47Brian McFadden: The problem is, will the courts continue this if there's a Democrat governor in place?
- 1:00:55Testecleese: Well, you would… Ideally, the judges wouldn't change their…
- 1:01:02Testecleese: View of the law based upon who's in office, right?
- 1:01:05Brian McFadden: Ideally, but you know how that goes.
- 1:01:07Testecleese: Yeah, I know exactly how that goes.
- 1:01:12Testecleese: And, there we go, Brian, well, actually, if you want, you could do a share this next one, too.
- 1:01:18Brian McFadden: Alright.
- 1:01:19Testecleese: call.
- 1:01:20Testecleese: This dude, Colin Rugg, he posted this on X. Oh, you might not be able to if you don't log into X, I might have to, I'm not sure.
- 1:01:27Brian McFadden: Let me see what I got. I think I can usually get in the… I don't have to log in, it's… oh, wait. You got to, because it's age-restricted.
- 1:01:36Testecleese: Oh, okay, okay, well, it doesn't really matter.
- 1:01:40Testecleese: He went in there to this, like, school board meeting.
- 1:01:46Testecleese: And was talking about
- 1:01:49Testecleese: Boys and girls' locker rooms, girls and boys' locker rooms, because they're saying trans or whatever.
- 1:01:56Testecleese: And as he's talking, by hand.
- 1:01:58Brian McFadden: Oh, I heard about this!
- 1:02:00Testecleese: Handful of, high school students, mind you.
- 1:02:04Brian McFadden: High school… now…
- 1:02:06Testecleese: I'm pretty sure they were all 18.
- 1:02:08Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:02:09Testecleese: But a handful of these young ladies stood next to him and started stripping down.
- 1:02:14Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:02:15Testecleese: And they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, this is inappropriate, we need order, we… and he's like, oh, does this make you uncomfortable with a bunch of people of the opposite sex changing in front of you?
- 1:02:28Testecleese: That's exactly what's going on with the transgenders!
- 1:02:32Ron Pascoe: It's like…
- 1:02:33Testecleese: Well, I mean… I, I, ideally, We could make everyone happy.
- 1:02:41Testecleese: But let's be realistic.
- 1:02:44Testecleese: If you only have a men's and a women's locker room, and you let the biological male into the women's locker room, because he identifies as a woman, and then whips his dick out in front of all the girls.
- 1:02:59Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:03:01Testecleese: you know, If I could have got away with this in high school, I probably would have done it.
- 1:03:07Brian McFadden: We've said this before.
- 1:03:09Testecleese: Yeah, this sounds like something I would have done, and be like, nothing you can do about it, look at my junk. You know what I mean? Let me oil up my cockin' balls so that I don't get a weird rash from running.
- 1:03:21Testecleese: playing football, you know what I mean? Watch me lube up my dick so I don't get a weird chafe, you know?
- 1:03:31Testecleese: Like, but that… wouldn't that offend you? You're the… you're the girl, and I'm just staring at you, rubbing oil on my dick. You'd be like.
- 1:03:38Testecleese: Hmm… And… Oh, that's gross, people don't do that.
- 1:03:44Testecleese: People put band-aids on their nipples to run.
- 1:03:48Testecleese: Trust me, people oil their thighs to not get that chafe from running.
- 1:03:56Testecleese: I don't know, I don't know how many people played sports.
- 1:04:00Testecleese: You know?
- 1:04:01Testecleese: And… which is even better. I've heard people, like, well, why are you doing this kind of stuff in the locker room? It's like, well, where else am I going to…
- 1:04:09Testecleese: Prepare for my competition.
- 1:04:11Testecleese: Like, the bathroom. I was like, that's what the fuck a locker room is! Like, there's a… there's a giant open shower where seven dudes bathe.
- 1:04:21Brian McFadden: I don't know if open showers still exists in schools. It did in my high school! It did mine, too! I was in school before you, yeah.
- 1:04:28Testecleese: Only in the boys.
- 1:04:29Brian McFadden: Oh, really? I never knew… I never went in the women's locker room to see what they had to offer, so…
- 1:04:34Testecleese: Well, like I said, if I had the chance to whip my dick out in the girls' locker room in high school.
- 1:04:39Brian McFadden: You were there.
- 1:04:40Testecleese: Trust me, I've been in the girls' locker room, okay?
- 1:04:45Ron Pascoe: But it turns scared away?
- 1:04:46Testecleese: I was a stupid teenager, you know what I mean?
- 1:04:50Testecleese: And that shit… it's funny, because you think, oh, today you'd go to jail for that. It's like, no, today you get a fucking parade!
- 1:04:59Ron Pascoe: Won't know Robinson Crusoe, mate.
- 1:05:03Testecleese: Huh.
- 1:05:07Testecleese: You can't see that, Trump…
- 1:05:09Testecleese: Found some way to pay our troops during.
- 1:05:12Brian McFadden: Yeah, he, transferred money from unused funds over the last year.
- 1:05:17Brian McFadden: To pay the troops this last… but they're saying that that is… there's people saying that it's illegal, and it's gonna end up in court.
- 1:05:25Testecleese: Oh, oh, the Democrats have already shut it down.
- 1:05:30Testecleese: Democrats, Schumer and all that have already shut it down.
- 1:05:33Testecleese: And they're the ones saying, oh, we need to at least pay the troops. It's like, yeah, we tried to, and you said no, because you want to make your fucking political point.
- 1:05:41Brian McFadden: Well, they all got paid on the 14th, so… on the 15th, so they got their middle month paycheck, so…
- 1:05:47Testecleese: Yeah, I mean.
- 1:05:48Brian McFadden: And I mean, I know how to solve this problem.
- 1:05:52Brian McFadden: And apparently, Congress was really smart a few years back, and they put this rule, this law in place that said, no matter what, they will get paid.
- 1:06:04Brian McFadden: drown.
- 1:06:05Testecleese: So then what's the issue if there's a law saying they're gonna get paid?
- 1:06:08Brian McFadden: No, the congressmen get paid.
- 1:06:11Brian McFadden: I want to create a law… I want to create a law that, if the government's shut down, they don't get a paycheck until the government reopens.
- 1:06:20Brian McFadden: That's what the law should be.
- 1:06:23Testecleese: That's what it should be, man.
- 1:06:25Testecleese: I was gonna say, maybe we should pass a law that the service gets paid.
- 1:06:29Testecleese: No matter what.
- 1:06:30Brian McFadden: They've started pushing through the, the defense, budget bill, and the Democrats are still voting it down.
- 1:06:39Brian McFadden: They're literally putting up the appropriations bill just for the Defense Department, or War Department now, is what they're called.
- 1:06:46Testecleese: Yes.
- 1:06:47Brian McFadden: And the, and the Senate Democrats.
- 1:06:49Testecleese: That's so good.
- 1:06:49Brian McFadden: voting it down. They're not even voting for that.
- 1:06:52Testecleese: Which lets you know that.
- 1:06:55Testecleese: All this garbage they're talking is just trash talking.
- 1:06:59Brian McFadden: It's all political.
- 1:07:03Testecleese: I don't know, ouch.
- 1:07:05Testecleese: I wonder how many of these Democrat…
- 1:07:09Testecleese: legislative officials actually were, are actually vets.
- 1:07:13Brian McFadden: Not as many as used to be.
- 1:07:17Testecleese: Yeah, because typically now, your vets tend to vote Republican, or least libertarian.
- 1:07:23Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:07:25Testecleese: Because you've seen this shit, like, I've seen communism happen. I've seen where it's going on.
- 1:07:30Brian McFadden: And they've been overseas, they've been in other countries, you know, they've experienced it.
- 1:07:35Testecleese: Yeah!
- 1:07:36Testecleese: And it's funny, because the Democrats…
- 1:07:40Testecleese: who always say, well, communism has never been implemented correctly. And so, apparently, Mom Donnie's gonna fix it.
- 1:07:47Testecleese: But the problem is, throughout history, the Democrats have always pointed at least one communist nation and said, there you go, that's an example of communism working, until it falls apart again.
- 1:07:59Testecleese: Bernie Sanders friggin' honeymooned.
- 1:08:02Testecleese: in the United, yeah, it was, United Soviet Socialist Republic, is that what it is? USSR?
- 1:08:09Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:08:10Testecleese: It is, you know, okay, yeah. Like, he went… not Russia, the USSR, the Soviet…
- 1:08:15Brian McFadden: Why is the Soviet Union, yeah.
- 1:08:17Testecleese: Where's honeymoon? Because that's socialism or communism working. And then they pointed at China about how communism works, and so people pointed out they're actually not technically communist, they're, like, a capitalist.
- 1:08:30Brian McFadden: They got a really weird system.
- 1:08:32Testecleese: Yeah, weird rules the way they do it, but…
- 1:08:35Testecleese: And then, recently, they pointed at Venezuela.
- 1:08:39Testecleese: for an example of communism working, and they're like, oh yeah, no, we blew that. And was it Norway? Was it Bernie Sanders, please stop telling people we're socialists.
- 1:08:49Brian McFadden: No.
- 1:08:52Testecleese: But, yeah, then after it collapsed, like, oh, it wasn't done right. It's like, well, you… you personally pointed at it and say, here's an example of it working.
- 1:09:01Testecleese: Great.
- 1:09:04Testecleese: This is my big one. That's communists.
- 1:09:07Testecleese: Socialism is the same thing, I don't care what anyone says.
- 1:09:11Testecleese: Glennon, who wrote the Socialist Manifesto.
- 1:09:14Testecleese: wrote right in that the end goal of socialism is communism. This is supposed to be a stepping stone.
- 1:09:21Testecleese: From our capitalist society.
- 1:09:23Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:09:24Testecleese: Alright.
- 1:09:26Testecleese: So yeah, anyway.
- 1:09:27Testecleese: So now we're not banning our troops.
- 1:09:30Testecleese: or…
- 1:09:31Brian McFadden: We paid him the next paycheck, yeah.
- 1:09:35Testecleese: Yeah, they're paid up to now, that might have been their last one.
- 1:09:38Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:09:41Testecleese: Oh my goodness.
- 1:09:42Testecleese: Okay, what's this one? Jeffries and Lawler?
- 1:09:46Testecleese: had a fight, I guess? I don't know.
- 1:09:49Testecleese: You find so many friggin' arguments.
- 1:09:53Testecleese: on Capitol Hill, you know?
- 1:09:57Brian McFadden: Yeah, it's all about to shut down. We might actually have video of this, let me see.
- 1:10:03Brian McFadden: Let me start it so I can get through the commercial. Yep, here I got it. I got a Google DuckDuckGo commercial, I wonder who's actually paying for the commercial.
- 1:10:11Testecleese: Hmm. Hey,
- 1:10:13Testecleese: While this is happening, anyone who actually listens to our show, we could use a couple bucks.
- 1:10:18Brian McFadden: Yeah, it's almost time to pay!
- 1:10:20Testecleese: Yeah, we gotta pay for our storage fees, but…
- 1:10:23Brian McFadden: End of the month, end of November.
- 1:10:25Testecleese: If we could actually bring in more of the storage fees, first of all, we don't intend to get
- 1:10:30Testecleese: We don't expect to get paid for this garbage, for real. This is Brian and I not cussing people out on the road for saying something stupid, right?
- 1:10:38Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:10:39Testecleese: But if we brought in more than we needed, that money would probably go under paying subscriptions to this crap.
- 1:10:45Testecleese: So we didn't have to deal with all these commercials and everything, you know?
- 1:10:49Brian McFadden: I mean, if you drink a… you shotgun a Foster's, I mean, we've already got the subscription paid for, so…
- 1:10:56Testecleese: He didn't… no, he told me Bud Light.
- 1:10:59Ron Pascoe: Bun Moy, mate. Probably bum more.
- 1:11:01Testecleese: Skull of Bud Light was what he said, and you know what's funny is I looked at one of the tall boys the other day, it was, like, $1.50. I was like, I might, you know?
- 1:11:09Brian McFadden: You should. It'll be worth it!
- 1:11:11Ron Pascoe: 20 bucks is 20 bucks.
- 1:11:13Testecleese: And it's not the worst.
- 1:11:15Brian McFadden: beer, it's… It's not, it's not.
- 1:11:17Testecleese: It tastes like every other white beer, right?
- 1:11:20Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:11:22Testecleese: Miller Lite, I will say, is a little different.
- 1:11:24Brian McFadden: It's almost sucks. Because it's made with rice, and, you know.
- 1:11:30Testecleese: I'm saying a week?
- 1:11:31Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:11:32Testecleese: That's what's different about it. I knew there was something different from a Mill Lite than a Bud Light, or a Kahua's Light, or a… okay. Anyway…
- 1:11:40Brian McFadden: Here we go.
- 1:11:41Testecleese: Show me about the shutdown.
- 1:11:42Audio shared by Brian McFadden: is expected to remain closed for at least another week. It comes as the…
- 1:11:47Testecleese: Bayer?
- 1:11:47Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Yeah, he's still there. He's still there? That seemed to have put both sides further apart.
- 1:11:53Brian McFadden: Plastic surgeon.
- 1:11:54Audio shared by Brian McFadden: bad programming.
- 1:11:55Testecleese: Oh, crap!
- 1:11:56Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Republicans fuming at Senate Minority
- 1:11:58Audio shared by Brian McFadden: leader Chuck Schumer, after he declared it gets, quote, better for Democrats the longer the shutdown lingers. To inflict pain on other people so that he can have a good day. You have lost your way. However, President Trump made a similar point, again threatening to slash federal programs important to Democrats. Every day gets better for them.
- 1:12:19Audio shared by Brian McFadden: No, every day is… it's actually getting worse for them. We'll give them a little taste of their own medicine. A caller who said she's from Virginia upbraided House Speaker Mike Johnson about the shutdown on C-SPAN. I am begging you to pass this legislation. My kids could die!
- 1:12:35Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Because of the medical bills that I have to pay regularly. The Capitol is now a political tender box following this week's verbal altercations. You're embarrassing yourself right now. You can sign on to this. The only embarrassment here is you. Democrats even questioning the Speaker's faith.
- 1:12:52Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Speaker Mike Johnson, he says in his beliefs.
- 1:12:56Brian McFadden: What the fuck is.
- 1:12:57Testecleese: That!
- 1:12:57Audio shared by Brian McFadden: I don't understand.
- 1:12:59Brian McFadden: Connecticut, with her purple hair!
- 1:13:01Testecleese: Rosa Delario.
- 1:13:03Testecleese: She's a congresswoman or a senator?
- 1:13:05Audio shared by Brian McFadden: that worldview.
- 1:13:06Ron Pascoe: She looks like coming out of the community.
- 1:13:07Brian McFadden: woven.
- 1:13:08Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Speaker, to try to lower this temperature. Emotions are high, people are…
- 1:13:11Testecleese: I hope that something like shit out after eating weird eggs?
- 1:13:13Audio shared by Brian McFadden: I'm a patient mad, but I am very angry right now, because this is a… this is dangerous stuff. The Senate voted for a second time to block funding bills. Leader Thune engaging in the classic definition of legislative insanity.
- 1:13:27Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Which is doing the same thing over and over and over again. Nothing has changed, despite Republicans insisting that Democrats will eventually cave. Was that a bad play call by the Republicans? This is the only play call. This is how shutdowns get fixed.
- 1:13:45Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Now, the Senate votes again tomorrow on the same plans, which failed for days. The GOP believes the ground will shift once workers miss paychecks, and Democrats get an earful over the weekend.
- 1:14:00Testecleese: Well, for one, if you work for the government, you have to understand that this is a possibility, right?
- 1:14:05Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:14:09Testecleese: I just… oh my god, I just…
- 1:14:12Testecleese: It's crazy what some people will believe. You can watch this stuff happen in real time, And…
- 1:14:19Testecleese: Some folks will just not believe it happened, you know what I mean?
- 1:14:24Testecleese: Anyway.
- 1:14:25Testecleese: I don't care about the impact that Trump shut down layoffs on federal workers unless you know something about it.
- 1:14:31Brian McFadden: Well, I mean…
- 1:14:32Testecleese: It was a long corn.
- 1:14:33Brian McFadden: Breaking news, a court came out and said he can't do it, so…
- 1:14:38Ron Pascoe: Did Bill Clinton do it?
- 1:14:40Brian McFadden: Temporarily block on firing workers during the shutdown.
- 1:14:46Testecleese: What authority does the judicial branch have over
- 1:14:51Testecleese: the staffing of the executive branch, because I thought they were supposed to be separate powers, right?
- 1:14:57Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 1:14:59Testecleese: So, the… Good.
- 1:15:01Brian McFadden: They're saying that he can't, he can't randomly fire…
- 1:15:05Brian McFadden: Government workers that are not part of the executive branch.
- 1:15:09Brian McFadden: During the shutdown.
- 1:15:11Testecleese: Oh, so these guys aren't executives, okay.
- 1:15:13Brian McFadden: No, no, he's trying to shut down whole departments among, like, you know…
- 1:15:18Brian McFadden: in… Democrat… he's trying to shut down climate change departments and crazy departments that shouldn't exist to begin with, so…
- 1:15:27Testecleese: Because you're spending a ton of money on… Yeah.
- 1:15:32Brian McFadden: USAID.
- 1:15:34Testecleese: Yes, yes, and thank you for calling it that, not USAID, because that's not what it was. It wasn't money sent to help
- 1:15:43Testecleese: Starving people lose to build programs to overthrow regimes in foreign nations.
- 1:15:52Testecleese: I still… I think it's hilarious that what we spent millions of dollars trying to…
- 1:15:58Testecleese: something about transing people in, like, Pakistan or something like that. And I was like, we're spending a bunch of money to mutilate these people, then watch them get mur… executed by their own country?
- 1:16:11Testecleese: I don't know.
- 1:16:16Testecleese: You see this shit? Okay.
- 1:16:19Testecleese: Keep hearing about the rhetoric, right?
- 1:16:21Testecleese: Republicans need to tone down the rhetoric. They said they didn't like this, and that's… that's violence.
- 1:16:27Testecleese: Chuck Schumer told Americans to forcefully rise up against Trump.
- 1:16:33Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 1:16:35Testecleese: What does that mean? He even used the word forcefully, not go out and protest, or let your voices be heard, which are literal quotes from Trump.
- 1:16:44Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:16:45Testecleese: Forcefully… what does that mean to you, then, to forcefully rise up?
- 1:16:52Brian McFadden: Arm up.
- 1:16:52Testecleese: insurrection.
- 1:16:53Ron Pascoe: Good point, yeah.
- 1:16:54Brian McFadden: No.
- 1:16:55Ron Pascoe: I mean, violence or acts of violence.
- 1:16:57Testecleese: Yeah, it, yeah, and it… Against the federal government, which is insurre- insurrectionism, insurrectionists.
- 1:17:07Testecleese: And you get enough of them together, and we have a civil war on our hands.
- 1:17:10Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:17:13Testecleese: This is fucking nuts, they tell what everyone else to…
- 1:17:17Testecleese: Everyone… it's funny, because I keep saying Republicans and Democrats. Thing is, Anyone who's not fucking retarded, isn't Democrat.
- 1:17:27Testecleese: And only, like, A third of those people that are left that aren't fucking retarded are Republicans.
- 1:17:35Testecleese: Like, you even have your classical liberals
- 1:17:39Testecleese: who agree with Bill Clinton's policies when he was in office, right?
- 1:17:43Brian McFadden: Well, Bill Clinton wasn't a current-day Democrat, either.
- 1:17:47Testecleese: That's exactly what I'm saying.
- 1:17:48Brian McFadden: He had a balanced budget amendment that got pushed through during his presidency.
- 1:17:53Testecleese: Yeah, too bad that didn't work out, huh?
- 1:17:56Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:17:58Testecleese: Why don't we make this a law, by the way? For real, why doesn't our Congress write a law and send it to Senate.
- 1:18:04Testecleese: To say, boom, we're not allowed to spend more money than we have for at least 10 years, or something like that, you know?
- 1:18:12Testecleese: Wouldn't that be great?
- 1:18:14Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:18:14Testecleese: And it… oh, we'll stop sending all of this money and technology, i.e. weapons, to our NATO friends, like Australia or,
- 1:18:25Testecleese: you know, London, England.
- 1:18:28Testecleese: See, does England have their own army? Yeah. Or is it… or is it…
- 1:18:33Brian McFadden: No, they did.
- 1:18:33Testecleese: Oh, it's… okay, so it's.
- 1:18:34Ron Pascoe: Not alone, right?
- 1:18:36Testecleese: For some reason, I thought UK had one Ari.
- 1:18:39Ron Pascoe: No, no, England's got their own, Wales got their own, Scotland's got their own, Ireland's… Northern Ireland's got their own, but when they fight together, they're called the British Army.
- 1:18:46Testecleese: British, and I've always wanted that.
- 1:18:49Testecleese: Because that was what I learned in school, was we revolted against Great Britain.
- 1:18:54Testecleese: Alright? And now, I mean, then I've…
- 1:18:57Testecleese: Brian and I keep asking you how to explain how this works, and none of it makes any fucking sense!
- 1:19:03Brian McFadden: Not to us, but we're not British, we're not part of the UK, so…
- 1:19:07Testecleese: Or the Commonwealth!
- 1:19:09Brian McFadden: We got rid of all that shit.
- 1:19:11Testecleese: Yeah, but, like, what, apparently the UK is, like, the island in, like, parts of Ireland, right? And then you have, like, the Commonwealth that includes, like, Canada and Australia?
- 1:19:20Ron Pascoe: It's called Commonwealth Forces, then.
- 1:19:22Ron Pascoe: once… once we get everyone involved, like, if Britain declares war, Everyone declares war.
- 1:19:29Testecleese: Because of it.
- 1:19:30Ron Pascoe: then you have the Commonwealth forces, where Australia then comes under…
- 1:19:35Ron Pascoe: Australian defense Force comes under the…
- 1:19:38Testecleese: Same idea as, like, a NATO pact.
- 1:19:41Ron Pascoe: Yeah, but it's a British one.
- 1:19:44Ron Pascoe: India.
- 1:19:46Ron Pascoe: Comes under it.
- 1:19:47Testecleese: At this point, you don't even… well, I suppose keep it in there in case NATO dissolves, but at this point, all of these Commonwealth nations are NATO, right?
- 1:19:56Testecleese: So if anyone in NATO goes to war, you are obligated to help them?
- 1:20:03Ron Pascoe: Yeah, a lot of the Commonwealth countries are NATO. We're not NATO.
- 1:20:07Testecleese: You're not! I thought…
- 1:20:09Brian McFadden: Oh, yo.
- 1:20:10Testecleese: Okay, okay, well then. But you are, because…
- 1:20:14Testecleese: the rest of the Commonwealth is, and if they go to war, you're obligated to go help them, right?
- 1:20:19Ron Pascoe: Well, we're subsidiary, like, we've got… like, we can perform in Eurovision.
- 1:20:24Testecleese: Yeah.
- 1:20:25Ron Pascoe: That's right.
- 1:20:25Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:20:26Ron Pascoe: COVID.
- 1:20:27Ron Pascoe: I'm just saying, for example, the United States.
- 1:20:30Testecleese: Let's say the United States gets into a war with Venezuela over this drug thing, right?
- 1:20:35Ron Pascoe: Yep.
- 1:20:36Testecleese: that would obligate NATO nations.
- 1:20:40Testecleese: to come to the aid of the United States.
- 1:20:44Ron Pascoe: obligated Australia as well, Australia and UK, because of the orcus deal.
- 1:20:49Testecleese: Oh, okay, I was just gonna say that even what… even if…
- 1:20:53Testecleese: even without that, Australia would still be obligated because…
- 1:20:58Testecleese: Great… Great Britain would be obligated to go to conflict, which would drag Australia with it because of their thing, right?
- 1:21:07Ron Pascoe: No, because we've got to deal with you guys. If you guys go to war, because of AUKUS, or if we go to war because AUKUS, Australia, United Kingdom, and US, we've got to deal with that. We're there for each other, a pact.
- 1:21:20Testecleese: Crazy how, our best allies on this planet as the United States.
- 1:21:26Ron Pascoe: are the people that we told to fuck off or leave us alone. Well, you look at us, mate, Australia's been with you guys in nearly every major conflict.
- 1:21:37Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, except for a handful on our homeland in the early days, yeah.
- 1:21:43Ron Pascoe: We were the ones just stuck out with you guys in Iraq and that, we were there till the end.
- 1:21:47Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, geez, the Australians did some really crazy stuff in World War II.
- 1:21:52Testecleese: Really, who didn't, though? There were no resources available, and…
- 1:21:56Ron Pascoe: No, we beat the Germans, we were the first ones to beat the Germans in El Alame.
- 1:22:01Ron Pascoe: The Desert Rats? Did we beat the Japs?
- 1:22:04Ron Pascoe: In Kokoda.
- 1:22:05Testecleese: I love the argument that I've heard from some people is, oh, the United States showed up late and took an easy win and are taking credit.
- 1:22:12Testecleese: I'm like, I get that argument, but it's like, they didn't want to be involved, and then Japan bombed them.
- 1:22:18Ron Pascoe: Yeah.
- 1:22:19Brian McFadden: Yeah, I think…
- 1:22:20Testecleese: He really is one of the same.
- 1:22:21Ron Pascoe: found the Japanese in Singapore, weren't you?
- 1:22:24Testecleese: Can you guys take on the Japanese in Singapore and that?
- 1:22:28Testecleese: Possibly.
- 1:22:30Testecleese: Possibly, I'm not sure, honestly.
- 1:22:32Testecleese: Well, yeah, the Japanese attacked us, so we declared war, and because of that, Germany declared war on us. I was like, oh, fuck.
- 1:22:40Testecleese: Okay, and I… And here's the big thing, is everyone talks about the Nazis in this country.
- 1:22:47Ron Pascoe: Patient.
- 1:22:47Testecleese: Everyone talks about the Nazis in this country, but the crazy thing is, the United States is more at war, I say more at war, more concerned about Japan in World War II.
- 1:22:56Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:22:58Testecleese: Fuck, we nuked Japan twice, right?
- 1:23:01Brian McFadden: They had to, to try to end the war. They wouldn't end it at the first time, so…
- 1:23:05Testecleese: Dude, that's exactly it. Well, yeah, they didn't want…
- 1:23:10Testecleese: I'm certain he didn't want to drop the bombs. Was it Truman?
- 1:23:14Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:23:16Testecleese: Pretty sure he didn't WANT to!
- 1:23:19Testecleese: But, he's like, oh, we got this weapon, like… and the Japanese…
- 1:23:23Testecleese: I had this honor culture that they…
- 1:23:26Ron Pascoe: Eastern time.
- 1:23:26Testecleese: still live by.
- 1:23:28Ron Pascoe: Come on!
- 1:23:30Testecleese: And the jack the Japanese would,
- 1:23:34Testecleese: Jump off a cliffs instead of being taken prisoner, you know?
- 1:23:38Brian McFadden: Well, they were also big on kamikaze.
- 1:23:40Testecleese: Yeah, so, yeah, kamikaze bombing, it's like, you're not gonna get a surrender out of these people.
- 1:23:47Ron Pascoe: Yeah, but the Japanese had a lot of that, too, during Battle Midway in that as well, too.
- 1:23:50Brian McFadden: That's what we're talking about.
- 1:23:52Testecleese: Yeah, that's exactly what we're talking about.
- 1:23:54Testecleese: Because the Japanese refused to surrender.
- 1:23:57Testecleese: no matter what.
- 1:23:58Ron Pascoe: Without losing their capital.
- 1:24:00Testecleese: That's why they got bombed twice.
- 1:24:02Ron Pascoe: Yeah, when you guys, when you start taking out some of their carriers and that… they made a pact because they know where to land their planes, so they said, right, we'll go into the American ships.
- 1:24:11Ron Pascoe: That's why I tried a nose diagnosis.
- 1:24:14Testecleese: So what do you guys think about Japan building a military right now?
- 1:24:18Ron Pascoe: Well, I'd like, to be honest with you.
- 1:24:21Ron Pascoe: I… I think it's a good idea.
- 1:24:24Ron Pascoe: I think we've gone past 1942, 1944.
- 1:24:29Ron Pascoe: You look at what's going on in China, with China in that South China Sea and that, mate? That's…
- 1:24:34Testecleese: China is the issue, I think you're right, but the crazy thing is Japan, with all of this peace that has come after the great,
- 1:24:41Testecleese: the wars, the great wars, because I'm gonna call them one war.
- 1:24:45Testecleese: They jumped forward in technology so much by investing nothing in their military.
- 1:24:50Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:24:51Brian McFadden: kind of like Europe does with… they can focus on their social… socialism, because they don't have to worry about the defense of their countries.
- 1:25:01Brian McFadden: They got the U.S. said to do that.
- 1:25:03Testecleese: And I've gotten into a big fight with these guys over that. It's like, we all agreed we were gonna pay X percentage, what was it, like, 2% of your GDP or something stupid like that?
- 1:25:12Brian McFadden: It's super low.
- 1:25:14Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, like, seriously, like, 1 or 2%, I'm.
- 1:25:16Brian McFadden: And Trump tried to raise it up, like, double, and some countries did it, some countries are re-digging on it, so…
- 1:25:23Testecleese: But the countries that did it?
- 1:25:25Testecleese: are… even… Even if conflict doesn't come.
- 1:25:32Testecleese: And you reduce your military size after the fact, you still have all of these weapons that you have designed and built
- 1:25:40Testecleese: You know what I mean? Should more break out. And you could… at that point, you could draft.
- 1:25:45Ron Pascoe: And teach people how to use this weaponry.
- 1:25:48Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 1:25:49Ron Pascoe: Yeah, but you…
- 1:25:51Ron Pascoe: You look what's going on, like, in Europe at the moment, mate. The Polish… the Poles, mate, they're building up their military massively. People don't realize how big Poland's army, and that's getting their defense forces.
- 1:26:02Testecleese: Well, Poland… not even Poland, that region, Slovakia, That's been there forever.
- 1:26:11Testecleese: Are the most conquered and enslaved people In world history.
- 1:26:17Brian McFadden: And they're worried about that.
- 1:26:18Testecleese: That's, yeah, that's where the word slave comes from, is from Slovakian.
- 1:26:24Testecleese: And a lot of people don't realize that, that the most enslaved people in history are white, and because of that.
- 1:26:33Testecleese: The ACLU has labeled Slovakians official people of color with their blonde hair and blue eyes.
- 1:26:40Testecleese: No, I can't.
- 1:26:41Ron Pascoe: ew.
- 1:26:42Ron Pascoe: When I say, like, you'll even look at England.
- 1:26:45Ron Pascoe: Mate, their army has deployed it, what they've had. They used to have the biggest navy in the world. Look at them now.
- 1:26:51Testecleese: Not for a long time. That… when they…
- 1:26:53Ron Pascoe: farm.
- 1:26:54Testecleese: Naval superiority.
- 1:26:57Testecleese: That was, like, American Revolution time.
- 1:27:00Ron Pascoe: Yeah, but not long after that too, like, during World War II, they were pretty big until you guys became really industrialised and started taking over.
- 1:27:06Testecleese: Yeah, and so all of a sudden, all these aircraft carriers kept cranking out, like, what the fuck are those guys doing over there?
- 1:27:14Ron Pascoe: There was no one… and during that time, I'll be honest with you, there's no one that could build, like, naval vessels like you guys did.
- 1:27:20Ron Pascoe: You guys are just kicking ass what you're doing.
- 1:27:23Testecleese: Well, let's be real.
- 1:27:25Testecleese: Australia had a similar situation in terms of isolation from the actual conflict, right?
- 1:27:31Brian McFadden: Yeah, because they… they're surrounded by water.
- 1:27:34Testecleese: Yeah, but Australia's far less populated than the United States.
- 1:27:40Ron Pascoe: But where we're in danger is Japanese come down through what the Japanese do, and they'll come down through all these southeastern countries. Then they hit Singapore big time, and the British had massive bases in Singapore.
- 1:27:51Testecleese: Well, they'll blow up your production plants in conflict, you know what I mean?
- 1:27:54Ron Pascoe: We're actually raided by the Japanese. They sent bombers over to Darwin. They bombed Darwin.
- 1:28:00Ron Pascoe: I'm the Northern Territory.
- 1:28:01Testecleese: There's a city called Darwin in Australia, that's kind of on the nose, isn't it?
- 1:28:07Ron Pascoe: Well, that's where you guys had the American base coming off the bloody,
- 1:28:11Ron Pascoe: the wharfs that we've got up there. But what the government did, they leased up that wharf that you guys used, the American Navy, to the Chinese. Now, there's a big stink up about it. Looks like we'll be getting it back. We'll be reversing that lease now, because it's a 99-year lease.
- 1:28:26Ron Pascoe: We don't want the Japanese… the Chinese to come through.
- 1:28:28Brian McFadden: China's doing that in Africa, too.
- 1:28:32Ron Pascoe: Yeah, and they're doing a lot of bloody Pacific Asian countries.
- 1:28:37Ron Pascoe: You're saying… I've been to Australia.
- 1:28:42Brian McFadden: I have too.
- 1:28:44Testecleese: Is it… you're saying there's an American base in Darwin?
- 1:28:47Ron Pascoe: Yeah, there's American-based Pine Gaps in the.
- 1:28:49Testecleese: No, no, no, no, I'm just… I'm curious, because I know I pulled into an American base, because I didn't need my papers to get off the ship, you know what I mean?
- 1:28:58Ron Pascoe: Well, you've got Pine Gap, that's… that's in Northern Territory.
- 1:29:01Testecleese: Yeah, I was just…
- 1:29:02Brian McFadden: We came to Purd, the ship pulled in the Purd, but we didn't pull in, we had to do Liberty Boats.
- 1:29:07Testecleese: Oh, nuclear ship, huh?
- 1:29:09Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:29:10Testecleese: Yep. I've been there, done that. For anyone who's.
- 1:29:14Ron Pascoe: That would have been a time… that would have been a time that New Zealand kicked up the sink as well, too. They wouldn't let your… your naval vessels into New Zealand either.
- 1:29:22Testecleese: Yeah, oh, oh, plenty of countries. You'd be amazed.
- 1:29:27Testecleese: Spain.
- 1:29:29Testecleese: wouldn't let our nuclear ships… well, no, our non-nuclear ships could pull in, but not the nuclear ones, so we would draw bank, or what was it, 7 miles from shore? Is, like, the international, whatever, and we would take
- 1:29:41Testecleese: they call them Liberty Boats.
- 1:29:43Brian McFadden: Yeah. There were ferries, you ride…
- 1:29:46Testecleese: To sure.
- 1:29:47Brian McFadden: Cattle cars.
- 1:29:48Testecleese: What sucked as an E3 pulling into a foreign nation like this,
- 1:29:56Testecleese: It comes out by pay grade, in terms of time, who gets to get off the ship.
- 1:30:02Brian McFadden: Let me tell you what really sucks is coming back when you're drunk.
- 1:30:06Testecleese: Is that where you got in trouble, was Australia? And you know…
- 1:30:10Brian McFadden: No, that was Seychelles. And when you're heaving, you're heaving over to the side of the ferry coming back, because you're so fucked up.
- 1:30:18Testecleese: It's funny, e.
- 1:30:19Ron Pascoe: Are you still ignored Australia.
- 1:30:22Testecleese: one of, the repeat offender's friends here, actually, the reason why I still…
- 1:30:27Testecleese: even know who the guy is. It's because we got into a big argument.
- 1:30:31Testecleese: about Australia.
- 1:30:34Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 1:30:34Testecleese: Well, I was like, oh, it was so cool, you know, when I pulled in, on a Navy ship.
- 1:30:40Testecleese: And I got to watch a kangaroo fistfight a dude.
- 1:30:44Testecleese: And he tore me apart, man. Up and down.
- 1:30:48Testecleese: dressed me down like, shit. Like, I came in to frickin', inspection. Like, tears in my uniform, you know what I mean? About how Australia hasn't let tourists do, view this kind of stuff for, like, 60 years, going on and on.
- 1:31:03Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:31:04Testecleese: And I was like.
- 1:31:06Brian McFadden: I saw it.
- 1:31:07Testecleese: Yeah, I was like, I was on an American Navy base.
- 1:31:11Testecleese: And I wasn't a tourist, and he goes, oh… he's like, oh, alright, well, in that case, you might have actually seen this. I was like, yeah! It's freaking crazy! The size of the biceps and the triceps on one of them, what are they, the grays, or what do they call them? Giant ones?
- 1:31:29Ron Pascoe: The reds, big reds.
- 1:31:30Testecleese: The big reds, they're enormous animals!
- 1:31:34Testecleese: And then you see, the thing throws a couple punches to see what's going on, and the guy's punching in the back, you're like, dude, that thing's gonna hurt you, and it leans back on his tail and boots the guy across the frickin' boxing ring! And you're like, oh my god!
- 1:31:49Ron Pascoe: Yeah, they get up about 7 feet tall, those big reds.
- 1:31:52Testecleese: Oh, they're enormous, and they're terrifying!
- 1:31:55Testecleese: And what, they can run something like 60 miles an hour or something stupid?
- 1:32:00Ron Pascoe: Yeah, Lumi's are probably a bit quicker than them.
- 1:32:03Testecleese: Yeah, you are not beating it in a fistfight.
- 1:32:07Testecleese: in the wild, and you are not outrunning it, right?
- 1:32:12Ron Pascoe: Mate, you put him in a fistfight, he's gonna kick the shit out of you with his bloody feet.
- 1:32:17Testecleese: I did see a handful of them cool videos that came out, though, for, like, remember that one where the kangaroo had the guy's dog in a headlock, and the guy went over there and, like, fought the thing?
- 1:32:29Ron Pascoe: He's lucky that…
- 1:32:30Testecleese: That's true.
- 1:32:32Ron Pascoe: He was lucky there was only a grey.
- 1:32:35Testecleese: Yeah. And then it's funny, because, like, a week later, a video came out of a guy filming outside his house, and this thing was, like, pumping its chest and bumping off the glass window. I was like, is that the same fucking kangaroo? Did it come to your house to kick your ass?
- 1:32:53Brian McFadden: Oh, Letitia James got indicted this week.
- 1:32:57Brian McFadden: And, Chuck Schumer.
- 1:32:59Testecleese: Northern Jungle.
- 1:33:01Brian McFadden: And Chuck Schumer had a comment about it that I want to play right now.
- 1:33:05Testecleese: -Oh.
- 1:33:05Ron Pascoe: I've got to go, lad. I'll catch you later on, but thank you anyway. I'll see you next week.
- 1:33:10Testecleese: Yeah, thanks for going by.
- 1:33:12Audio shared by Brian McFadden: of the Justice Department. On Thursday, federal prosecutors indicted your and my state's Attorney General, Letitia James, for alleged mortgage fraud. Criminal charges against former National Secretary John Bolton could come as early as next week. You've said this is what tyranny looks like. Can you explain that?
- 1:33:34Brian McFadden: Good old L.
- 1:33:35Audio shared by Brian McFadden: Yes, they have made the Justice Department, which under every other president, Democrat or Republican, pursued the law.
- 1:33:43Brian McFadden: No, they have it.
- 1:33:43Audio shared by Brian McFadden: and went after people who broke the law, they have made it into Trump's personal attack dog. That is what dictatorships do. That's what tyranny is all about.
- 1:33:52Brian McFadden: I'll do that.
- 1:33:52Audio shared by Brian McFadden: And they did it with Tish James. She had a legitimate case, she pursued it, she actually won. So Trump is now trying to get back at her. But the case is so weak that even Trump's first prosecutor, who he appointed, said there's not a case
- 1:34:06Audio shared by Brian McFadden: So he fired that one and put a new prosecutor in who would do whatever he wants. But I talked to Tish James a half hour after the indictment came through. She is strong, she is tough, she is resolute, and she is confident, as am I, that these charges will be rejected because they.
- 1:34:22Brian McFadden: We have no…
- 1:34:23Audio shared by Brian McFadden: basis, no basis in law or in fact. So I respect her, she's my friend.
- 1:34:29Brian McFadden: We signed the Lord.
- 1:34:30Audio shared by Brian McFadden: They're doing something.
- 1:34:31Brian McFadden: Said she… said she was gonna live in the fucking property.
- 1:34:37Testecleese: Yeah, she got a lower… Interest rate by, claiming it was our primary residence.
- 1:34:44Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:34:45Testecleese: live, right?
- 1:34:45Brian McFadden: Yep, exactly, that's how it works.
- 1:34:48Testecleese: What did Schumer… not Schumer, is it shift?
- 1:34:55Brian McFadden: Same thing.
- 1:34:56Testecleese: Not the same, but similar.
- 1:34:58Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:34:59Testecleese: It's something that… it's not… he didn't claim it to be his primary residence, but he claimed it to be something other than what he was, and he got a lower rate.
- 1:35:09Brian McFadden: Because if you're buying an expensive property, you gotta put more money down, and you gotta pay a higher interest rate.
- 1:35:17Testecleese: Well, yeah, if I'm gonna have a vacation home, maybe I should pay a higher interest rate, like…
- 1:35:22Testecleese: Or maybe, you know.
- 1:35:23Brian McFadden: So who… how many people…
- 1:35:25Brian McFadden: that live in New York City, in New York area, have, like, a million dollar house, are gonna buy a $100,000 house in Norfolk and call it a vacation home.
- 1:35:36Brian McFadden: Is that what you want to buy your vacation home at, is in Norfolk? In downtown Norfolk?
- 1:35:41Testecleese: Downtown Norfolk? Oh my god, no!
- 1:35:44Brian McFadden: Well, it may not be right downtown, but it is… got a Norfolk address.
- 1:35:50Brian McFadden: So… And the relatives that are living there?
- 1:35:55Brian McFadden: are on a parole violation from the state of North Carolina.
- 1:36:01Testecleese: Terrific.
- 1:36:02Testecleese: I don't know if you're aware, dude, but Norfolk's actually a pretty rough city.
- 1:36:07Brian McFadden: Yeah…
- 1:36:13Testecleese: Sorry.
- 1:36:17Testecleese: Yeah, Jeez, remember the music bank?
- 1:36:24Brian McFadden: The music bank? No.
- 1:36:26Testecleese: It was… it was across the street from the main gate, basically.
- 1:36:30Brian McFadden: Oh, okay.
- 1:36:30Testecleese: bar.
- 1:36:31Brian McFadden: No, no.
- 1:36:32Testecleese: They ended up getting shut down, but… Jeez, you…
- 1:36:37Testecleese: You would see someone get stabbed if you went there.
- 1:36:42Testecleese: somewhat regularly.
- 1:36:44Testecleese: It was… and a lot of robberies, because believe it or not, right next to a military base.
- 1:36:51Testecleese: You get a lot of crime when people go into rob… People that they know.
- 1:36:56Testecleese: got paid yesterday, and hey, hey, it's the 16th of the month, or the third of the month, Friday.
- 1:37:04Testecleese: Get paid on the 1st and 15th.
- 1:37:06Testecleese: And it's Friday now.
- 1:37:08Testecleese: These guys are at the bar, across the street, from the base.
- 1:37:14Testecleese: Boom, he might have a couple hundred bucks in his pocket.
- 1:37:18Testecleese: And, yeah. Happened a lot, actually, believe it or not. Any… any of the communities directly next to a military base in the United States is usually pretty ghetto because of this, because they're… they're easy targets. These guys are not allowed to own weapons on… to have a weapon on base.
- 1:37:38Testecleese: And most of them live on base, so they don't have…
- 1:37:43Testecleese: You know what I mean? You're not going to the bar and bringing even… even a decent-sized knife in your pocket on your hip, let alone a firearm, you know?
- 1:37:52Testecleese: Yep. But yeah, I was just talking about, how the communities right next to a military base are always frickin' dangerous as fuck, because they know there's a whole bunch of dudes who just got paid yesterday going out to get drunk.
- 1:38:06Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:38:07Testecleese: It's like, oh, look, the 24-year-olds are leaving two days after paycheck on Friday, and they're all going to the bar. I bet you there's, like, a thousand bucks between these guys, right?
- 1:38:19Testecleese: In cash!
- 1:38:21Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 1:38:23Brian McFadden: Well, back in the day, it's not as much cash anymore.
- 1:38:28Testecleese: True, true. Now you're more likely to have your card on you.
- 1:38:32Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:38:33Testecleese: Well, we… I mean, we used to hate the…
- 1:38:35Testecleese: Personally, I like to use cash at least for a tip.
- 1:38:41Testecleese: And it's funny, because right after we bought the house, like, signed the paperwork.
- 1:38:45Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:38:46Testecleese: was when Trump's, no tax on tips went through.
- 1:38:49Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:38:51Testecleese: And, we went… we stopped at a Outback Steakhouse on the way home to have a steak, like, yeah, alright.
- 1:38:59Testecleese: Awesome. Finally bought the house.
- 1:39:02Testecleese: And I went to go reach for cash to pay the tip. I was like, oh, we don't need to do this.
- 1:39:08Testecleese: And the wife was like, what?
- 1:39:10Brian McFadden: I don't know that it's actually taken effect yet, I thought it was, like, the first of the year it took effect.
- 1:39:14Testecleese: I thought it already did, my… if that… if that's true, I feel bad, but… yeah, I was like, yo, we've always paid…
- 1:39:21Testecleese: Tips and cash.
- 1:39:22Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:39:24Testecleese: so that the server could lie on their taxes and pay less tax. Right.
- 1:39:30Testecleese: When it's on a… when it's right there, documented, and like.
- 1:39:34Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:39:35Testecleese: The business, my records, and the credit company all have the transaction of me tipping You know, 30%.
- 1:39:44Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:39:44Testecleese: they have to pay taxes on that versus handing them the cash, you know?
- 1:39:49Testecleese: We've talked about this on the show more than once, how I've been doing that forever, and you even said that you try to do this sometimes, right?
- 1:39:55Brian McFadden: Buh.
- 1:39:56Testecleese: If you got cash on you, you'd rather tip in cash.
- 1:39:59Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 1:40:01Brian McFadden: So, y'all heard about the exciting…
- 1:40:03Testecleese: It's good to put cash in your pocket. Always feels good to get cash in your pocket instead of it showing up in your paycheck in 5 days, right?
- 1:40:11Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:40:11Testecleese: Yeah, anyway, continue.
- 1:40:13Brian McFadden: No King's Revolts are happening this weekend.
- 1:40:19Testecleese: Yeah.
- 1:40:20Brian McFadden: They were a boss before?
- 1:40:22Brian McFadden: Virginia has activated the National Guard to make sure that it's a peaceful protests.
- 1:40:30Testecleese: You're, yep, you're allowed to protest, just…
- 1:40:32Brian McFadden: Yeah, and even though the Virginia governor came out and said, we are all about free speech, you know, you can talk all you want, you know, but if it gets violent, we're gonna deal with it.
- 1:40:42Testecleese: You start chucking concrete and milkshakes at people, we're gonna have a problem, right?
- 1:40:48Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:40:49Testecleese: It's funny, because I'm…
- 1:40:53Testecleese: This No Kings thing, I love how these Canadians had the same process, but they had to call it something else, you know that, right?
- 1:41:01Brian McFadden: Well, I saw a Facebook post today, it's like, yeah, you got all these Democrats out here talking about no kings, but they're the ones that didn't have a primary, and they just nominated their presidential…
- 1:41:15Brian McFadden: Yeah, exactly.
- 1:41:17Testecleese: Yeah, it's like, you didn't have a primary, and then… and then you went and changed your candidate last minute anyway, didn't give anyone a choice.
- 1:41:28Testecleese: But, the no kings thing. One.
- 1:41:36Testecleese: Saturday, it's also gonna be in DC.
- 1:41:39Testecleese: Because it's, like, a nationwide thing, they're trying…
- 1:41:41Brian McFadden: They're having one in Richmond, too.
- 1:41:43Testecleese: Yeah, I was gonna say, it's gonna be in, like, as many major cities as they can do.
- 1:41:47Brian McFadden: Yeah. But I think this is why Schumer's keeping the government shut down.
- 1:41:51Testecleese: is so that these Democrat legislators
- 1:41:56Testecleese: Can show their faces in public, fighting the power, you know?
- 1:42:02Testecleese: and… she said, I don't know, man.
- 1:42:06Testecleese: Sure would be a shame.
- 1:42:09Brian McFadden: Unacceptable shame if…
- 1:42:12Testecleese: Schumer and Pelosi and AOC were standing next to each other in some… Right-wing nutjob.
- 1:42:21Testecleese: on a rooftop with a rifle, picked all 3 of them off. I mean, it would be tragic and terrible, and just… I am encouraging everyone who might do something like that, definitely do not be in DC tomorrow at 9 AM.
- 1:42:39Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:42:39Testecleese: you can see Capitol Hill from a rooftop 6 blocks away, because that is wrong.
- 1:42:48Testecleese: Now, I'm allowed to say that, right?
- 1:42:51Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:42:52Testecleese: It's pretty clear what it was supposed to mean, though, right?
- 1:42:58Testecleese: Yeah, and this is the issue I'm having with the Democrats right now. It's like, I didn't say anything wrong! It's like,
- 1:43:05Testecleese: Yeah, you're right, you're not gonna go to jail for this, but…
- 1:43:09Testecleese: Don't start a fight, then blame the guy that… Swung back, right?
- 1:43:15Brian McFadden: Correct.
- 1:43:17Testecleese: And didn't AOC just have, like, a whole thing she had to do online to, like, apologize for calling someone short?
- 1:43:24Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah.
- 1:43:25Testecleese: Didn't she say someone acted like they were 4'10?
- 1:43:30Testecleese: R.
- 1:43:32Testecleese: I wish I could remember who it was, but she said this, and some… she got blown up, like, ratioed.
- 1:43:40Testecleese: Because about, you know,
- 1:43:42Testecleese: discriminating on someone's height is the same idea as discriminating based upon race. It's… it's immutable. You cannot change your height.
- 1:43:52Testecleese: And then she came out, she's like, oh, no, no, and she went on about how she loves short kings.
- 1:43:58Testecleese: And I'm like, but I thought we weren't supposed to have any kings.
- 1:44:02Brian McFadden: No.
- 1:44:04Testecleese: So, like, how do you love short kings, and is that… is… we can have a king as long as it's not Trump who's, what, was he, like, 6'3" or something?
- 1:44:13Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:44:16Testecleese: Alright!
- 1:44:19Testecleese: Trump is not a skinny dude, don't get me wrong, he's in way better shape now than he was 6 years ago.
- 1:44:27Testecleese: But if he's, like, 6'3", 6'4",
- 1:44:30Testecleese: Shaved like that? Well, he's gotta weigh, like, 215, 225 pounds.
- 1:44:38Testecleese: it, I mean, at least… Yeah. Not a little dude, right?
- 1:44:47Testecleese: Anyway… Did you see this Don Lemon shit?
- 1:44:53Brian McFadden: No.
- 1:44:54Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:44:55Testecleese: he basically told black and brown people to arm themselves against ICE.
- 1:45:02Brian McFadden: That's gonna end badly.
- 1:45:03Testecleese: It's gonna end very badly, because
- 1:45:07Testecleese: Let me tell you what's gonna happen if ICE kicks in my front door, thinking I'm an illegal immigrant, right? An illegal alien?
- 1:45:15Testecleese: I'm gonna get down on my knees and put my hands behind my head.
- 1:45:20Testecleese: And let them do what they're gonna do.
- 1:45:22Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:45:23Testecleese: And then in a courtroom.
- 1:45:25Brian McFadden: They're gonna check your papers.
- 1:45:26Testecleese: They're gonna find out I'm an American citizen, and I'm gonna go back home. Now, if they kicked in my door, and I ran and grabbed my shotgun.
- 1:45:34Brian McFadden: We're gonna die.
- 1:45:35Testecleese: Yeah, I'm gonna die!
- 1:45:40Testecleese: See, I'm already armed, and I know better than to go straight to my weapon.
- 1:45:44Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:45:45Testecleese: It's…
- 1:45:46Brian McFadden: Don Lemon's gonna tell you otherwise.
- 1:45:48Testecleese: Yeah, it's supposed to be a last resort, but like… like I said, even if they… assuming I knew it was ice kicking in my door. Now, if a bunch of plainclothes guys…
- 1:45:57Testecleese: Claiming to be ice-kicked in my door, I would go for my weapon.
- 1:46:01Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 1:46:03Testecleese: wouldn't the gang that wants to stop you from selling your pot, or whatever the fuck, you know what I mean? Or…
- 1:46:09Testecleese: they're gonna, you know, open the doors to police. They're not gonna say, we're the rival gang, you know what I mean?
- 1:46:16Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:46:19Testecleese: Man, it's just crazy, this is gonna end horribly.
- 1:46:22Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:46:23Testecleese: And what's even worse is he's… Lemon is gonna use this as an example.
- 1:46:28Testecleese: Of the violence coming from the police shooting all these people.
- 1:46:35Brian McFadden: And Don Lemon doesn't have, like… he's not on CNN anymore, he's… A streamer.
- 1:46:41Testecleese: Easy, yeah, D.
- 1:46:43Testecleese: Same status as us.
- 1:46:45Brian McFadden: Pretty much, yep.
- 1:46:48Brian McFadden: Pepsi's still making money.
- 1:46:49Brian McFadden: I'm weird.
- 1:46:51Testecleese: He just makes me laugh. He hates white people so much.
- 1:46:55Testecleese: And that, buddy, that…
- 1:46:58Testecleese: And he's like, oh, the government, you're being fucked by the white man, and you know, all this shit. I'm like, no, Don, that's just you, you married a white guy.
- 1:47:07Testecleese: You know?
- 1:47:08Brian McFadden: Yeah. Give me a couple other…
- 1:47:10Testecleese: I was gold, and you know it!
- 1:47:13Brian McFadden: Give me a couple more topics from ICE.
- 1:47:17Testecleese: Oh, alright, well, one of these illegal immigrant, social media influencers, she was putting out, like, locations of ice.
- 1:47:27Testecleese: Oh, yeah. She was giving out, like, locations and warning people to get out of the area.
- 1:47:36Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 1:47:38Testecleese: She's been deported.
- 1:47:40Brian McFadden: Good.
- 1:47:42Testecleese: So… Just a heads up, These folks, I don't think, understand there's an IP address.
- 1:47:50Testecleese: If you post something online.
- 1:47:53Testecleese: The federal government, believe it or not, cannot just find out what house it came from.
- 1:47:57Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:47:58Testecleese: But, what, which computer?
- 1:48:01Brian McFadden: It's not just the federal government, pretty much anybody can.
- 1:48:04Testecleese: Anyone who knows how to do it, right?
- 1:48:06Brian McFadden: Yeah, exactly. But these VPNs are so… Unless they're using a VPN, which I guarantee the government still has a way around the VPN… I was gonna say.
- 1:48:14Testecleese: I'm sure the U.S. government has a way around that, because they invented the VPN.
- 1:48:19Brian McFadden: I'm sure they got a backdoor.
- 1:48:21Brian McFadden: Yeah. But still…
- 1:48:23Testecleese: It just… the thing is, these people are so dumb, they don't know what they're doing, they don't understand how the world works, and then they go and do this shit, and they're shocked, they get caught, like…
- 1:48:33Testecleese: How many people did we watch on video lighting Teslas on fire?
- 1:48:38Brian McFadden: We did, back in the day.
- 1:48:40Testecleese: Back in the day, what, like, 4 months ago?
- 1:48:43Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:48:45Brian McFadden: In a protest, Elon Musk, because he was part of Doge.
- 1:48:49Testecleese: Yeah, but you would have thought after the fifth or sixth video came out, That your average fucking moron
- 1:48:55Testecleese: who would do this, would realize, oh, Teslas
- 1:48:59Testecleese: I have something called Sentry Mode, when there are, like, 13 cameras pointed in every direction, and they turn on if you're.
- 1:49:05Brian McFadden: They're getting arrested when they set the car on fire, yeah.
- 1:49:09Testecleese: Yeah, you're being… but they kept doing it!
- 1:49:12Brian McFadden: They're dumb!
- 1:49:14Testecleese: Come on, what? Oh, my God!
- 1:49:19Testecleese: Yeah, that's the question, is are they dumb or ignorant?
- 1:49:23Testecleese: And I know they sound the same thing, but dumb means you are in…
- 1:49:27Testecleese: Like, stupid, like, you don't learn well.
- 1:49:30Testecleese: You have… you don't retain knowledge, you don't…
- 1:49:33Testecleese: learn lessons. Ignorant means you were never exposed to this, to be able to learn it.
- 1:49:40Testecleese: So these people, like, they were never shown all these videos?
- 1:49:43Brian McFadden: Right. Or did it just have no impact on them?
- 1:49:47Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 1:49:49Testecleese: Oh my goodness.
- 1:49:54Testecleese: Some, some illegal immigrant, Offered a $10,000 bounty on, Ice, agents, like.
- 1:50:04Testecleese: kill ICE agents, and I'll give you 10 grand.
- 1:50:08Testecleese: He's been deported.
- 1:50:11Testecleese: So… Good work, buddy.
- 1:50:16Testecleese: Blah, ice illegal Aries in Chicago. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, oh, here we go.
- 1:50:23Testecleese: Perfect.
- 1:50:25Testecleese: There's a cop in Chicago.
- 1:50:29Testecleese: who's an illegal alien. And before the left loses their minds.
- 1:50:33Testecleese: I want to, one, point out, it is illegal to possess… to own or even possess a firearm as an illegal immigrant.
- 1:50:42Testecleese: Right? Like, no, your buddy next door
- 1:50:46Testecleese: Comes over to your house, and you go shooting, and you let him hold your gun and fire. He has broken the law, and maybe you.
- 1:50:56Testecleese: But JB Pritzker went ahead and made this guy a cop and gave him a gun.
- 1:51:03Testecleese: And before the Let's Loose stuff…
- 1:51:05Brian McFadden: Good thing you did the background check.
- 1:51:07Testecleese: Yes! And even better, it's the white guy! So the Democrats can't even lose their shit over about discrimination about this. So they might actually allow this guy to get deported.
- 1:51:19Testecleese: you know, just like them South African,
- 1:51:22Testecleese: Refugees that they refuse to let in the country.
- 1:51:26Testecleese: Was it, like, 18 people, and they're starting to friggin'…
- 1:51:29Testecleese: Fight over that versus 20 million.
- 1:51:33Brian McFadden: Alright, let's talk about the peace deal.
- 1:51:35Testecleese: Yeah, I know.
- 1:51:37Testecleese: Looks like the war might be over in Israel.
- 1:51:43Brian McFadden: Well, we've got to stage 1 of the part plan… like, the 20-part plan, so I'm not holding my breath.
- 1:51:51Testecleese: Three phases.
- 1:51:53Brian McFadden: Well, Hamas already said they don't want to disarm, so…
- 1:51:56Testecleese: Correct, but they also said they weren't gonna show up to the signing, and they weren't gonna do a release time.
- 1:52:02Brian McFadden: Well, they got… they got,
- 1:52:06Brian McFadden: They'd lost all support in the Middle East.
- 1:52:10Brian McFadden: So they were kind of committed to doing something, because Turkey said it.
- 1:52:16Brian McFadden: All the Middle Eastern countries all said…
- 1:52:18Testecleese: We got a chance to get out of this, dude.
- 1:52:21Brian McFadden: Yeah, I'm like, we're not gonna send you any more financial support, we're not gonna send you more weapons, you know, we're washing our hands of this fiasco, so…
- 1:52:32Testecleese: Azel will just put it behind us.
- 1:52:34Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:52:34Testecleese: You guys attacked them and took hostages, civilians.
- 1:52:39Testecleese: They came back with overwhelming force.
- 1:52:42Testecleese: they're willing to not flat-level Palestine at this point, right?
- 1:52:46Brian McFadden: I was shocked that there were, like, 20 people still alive after all this time.
- 1:52:53Testecleese: Well, it's hilarious. I think we talked about it last week, Greta posted that picture of a Palestinian POW.
- 1:53:00Testecleese: all emaciated, and it turned out he was a… Yeah, well, no, not even fake, he was an Israeli Jew in custody of Hamas, who was forced to dig his own grave and being starved to death.
- 1:53:13Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:53:14Testecleese: just shook it down, and I was like…
- 1:53:17Testecleese: This didn't make you think a little bit of what's going on, but she's also claiming that they made her strip naked while they took pictures of her.
- 1:53:27Testecleese: I just don't necessarily believe that.
- 1:53:30Brian McFadden: I wanna see the photographic proof.
- 1:53:34Testecleese: Okay.
- 1:53:36Brian McFadden: Photographs, no proof.
- 1:53:37Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, no… it picks or didn't happen, I believe is what you say, right?
- 1:53:42Brian McFadden: Yes.
- 1:53:43Testecleese: Well, she also claims she was tortured and beaten.
- 1:53:46Testecleese: I'm like, where are your bruises? Where are your… where are your broken bones? You know?
- 1:53:51Testecleese: You don't get tortured and show up looking like you just had a fine meal.
- 1:53:56Testecleese: 10 minutes ago, you know?
- 1:53:57Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:53:59Testecleese: But Hamas did execute a handful of people, like, in the streets, right… right after this started.
- 1:54:06Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, the protesters, you know, people that were against them, not a good sign for, Hamas.
- 1:54:14Testecleese: And one of the women on The View
- 1:54:17Testecleese: I want to say Alyssa Farrah Griffin, but I don't know why I know that name. Is it from The View?
- 1:54:21Testecleese: Yeah, she's on the show. Oh, okay, she promised to wear a Trump hat, a MAGA hat.
- 1:54:26Brian McFadden: She was part of the Trump administration in the first term.
- 1:54:33Testecleese: I didn't realize that.
- 1:54:34Brian McFadden: Yeah, she was part of the, communications office.
- 1:54:40Brian McFadden: And, Trump came out and said that, you know, she was… she was a pretty good person until she wasn't.
- 1:54:49Brian McFadden: Basically, when she went against Trump, and now she's on The View, and her views are ridiculous, and kind of stuff like that, so…
- 1:54:58Testecleese: Yeah, well, she said she'd wear a manga hats.
- 1:55:00Brian McFadden: He's not wearing a mega hat.
- 1:55:01Testecleese: And now she's weaseling out.
- 1:55:04Brian McFadden: Just like a whole bunch of celebrities who called for the ceasefire are now…
- 1:55:07Testecleese: Saying… this is great, they're saying, this isn't fair, it's a…
- 1:55:11Testecleese: Gaza, to Palestine, or whatever. It's… this is terrible, this is horrible, this is disgusting. Meanwhile, Biden and Harris claims credit for it.
- 1:55:21Brian McFadden: Yeah, as Blinken did too! Blinken came out and said, this whole peace plan is part of the Biden administration's plan.
- 1:55:29Testecleese: So, if it's Biden's plan, which I think is hilarious that Joe Biden is accusing people of plagiarism.
- 1:55:35Brian McFadden: Yo.
- 1:55:38Testecleese: Come on, isn't that why he had to drop out of the presidential race the first time he ran?
- 1:55:42Brian McFadden: The first time, not the 24th time, he's good after that.
- 1:55:48Testecleese: Well, it's because Americans have short memories, let's be real.
- 1:55:53Testecleese: But yeah, but so, okay, so… so was it Biden's plan and it was brilliant, or was it horrible and all the wrong decisions to make?
- 1:56:02Brian McFadden: Well, I think when it comes to Trump, people tend to forget, and Trump did not deal with normal lifetime politicians to get this
- 1:56:13Brian McFadden: Peace deal going through.
- 1:56:15Brian McFadden: He dealt with people that are in business.
- 1:56:19Brian McFadden: that know how to make… they know how to wheel and deal, and then negotiate with different countries. And he got a ton of countries on his side in the whole process, and that…
- 1:56:33Brian McFadden: Yep, turkey, exactly.
- 1:56:35Testecleese: Yeah.
- 1:56:36Brian McFadden: It forced Hamas to, like, second-guess what they were doing.
- 1:56:41Brian McFadden: And they're like, come to the table.
- 1:56:45Testecleese: Well, that's the thing, is every time they tried to stop shooting each other, one side.
- 1:56:51Testecleese: Usually Hamas, but not every time.
- 1:56:54Testecleese: Would blow shit up.
- 1:56:56Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:56:57Testecleese: Just like when they tried this the last time, Israel kept launching rockets until, like, 20 minutes before the official ceasefire happened.
- 1:57:04Brian McFadden: I had to.
- 1:57:05Testecleese: Yeah.
- 1:57:07Testecleese: Maybe, I don't know. But I just know if you guys sign papers, you should at least not fire your weapons until you think you need to. Don't… don't do as much damage as you can.
- 1:57:17Brian McFadden: Well, you've kind of… you've kind of swayed… you've kind of shifted your views during this whole war from the get-go towards the end, because you thought very aggressive. Yeah, exactly.
- 1:57:30Testecleese: I think, yeah, and don't get me wrong, usually.
- 1:57:32Brian McFadden: But they're doing what they're doing because they've done this every… 5 to 10 years…
- 1:57:39Testecleese: Every 10 years or so.
- 1:57:40Brian McFadden: Yep, yep.
- 1:57:42Testecleese: And I get it, Israel has every right to defend themselves.
- 1:57:46Brian McFadden: Hamas rears its… it builds itself up every, like, 10 years, and, like, becomes a problem for Israel.
- 1:57:51Testecleese: Well, if they want to wipe out Hamas…
- 1:57:54Brian McFadden: Israel is… there is no friendly countries around Israel.
- 1:58:02Testecleese: Correct.
- 1:58:04Testecleese: Correct. And it's funny, because I've heard a lot of people talk shit about Israel just existing. I'm like, how many Muslim nations are there? I'm like, I don't know, I was like, I think it's, like, 150 or something stupid, like, 147 or something stupid, where it's actually required for you to be a Muslim in this country. Like, it's the law, that's…
- 1:58:23Brian McFadden: Well, if you're not a Muslim, your life is hell.
- 1:58:26Testecleese: Well, yes, depending on how you interpret some of these texts.
- 1:58:33Brian McFadden: From.
- 1:58:34Testecleese: the Quran, and what's the other big one they have?
- 1:58:38Testecleese: That's another big one of the…
- 1:58:40Testecleese: Follow. But they killed the apostate.
- 1:58:45Testecleese: Right?
- 1:58:46Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 1:58:46Testecleese: Meanwhile, Christianity…
- 1:58:49Testecleese: has the prodigal son. You leave, and we're sad, then you come back, and we love you more.
- 1:58:55Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:58:58Testecleese: but yeah, then you're like, well, okay, how many Jewish countries are there on the entire planet?
- 1:59:06Brian McFadden: One.
- 1:59:07Testecleese: One.
- 1:59:09Testecleese: It's like…
- 1:59:11Testecleese: maybe let them do their own thing, right? I mean, it's funny, because, you know, oh, the United States is a Christian nation. Yes, because it's full of Christians.
- 1:59:19Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:59:20Testecleese: But there's no official language, religion.
- 1:59:25Brian McFadden: Right.
- 1:59:28Testecleese: but yeah, a whole bunch of celebrities that were… docket trash.
- 1:59:34Testecleese: They found a way.
- 1:59:37Testecleese: To say, it's not good that this war is ending.
- 1:59:42Testecleese: I just… What do the Democrats stand for at this point?
- 1:59:48Testecleese: But…
- 1:59:49Brian McFadden: They don't know.
- 1:59:50Testecleese: They're… they're anti-America, anti-Republican. Not even that, I think it's… I think, no matter what Trump does.
- 1:59:59Brian McFadden: They're anti-Trump!
- 2:00:00Testecleese: They have to take the other side of the argument, no matter what.
- 2:00:04Testecleese: just like, how many times have I said, if Trump cured cancer, they would complain that he put oncologists out of business.
- 2:00:10Brian McFadden: You know?
- 2:00:15Brian McFadden: Even Madani came out and said that… oh, wait, he came out and said that the New York City should… if, Netanyahu tries to come to the UN, they should arrest him.
- 2:00:25Testecleese: I'm Donnie.
- 2:00:26Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:00:28Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:00:29Testecleese: Yeah, because of an, ICC… warm.
- 2:00:35Brian McFadden: We don't rec- the U.S. does not recognize the ICC for obvious reasons.
- 2:00:40Testecleese: Exactly, we do not recognize the International Criminal Court as an authority.
- 2:00:46Brian McFadden: So, if he did, if Madami… If Dami arrested him as the… Mayor of New York City.
- 2:00:55Brian McFadden: Could he even get him… Deported, could even get him…
- 2:01:01Brian McFadden: out of the country without Trump intervening and superseding it?
- 2:01:05Testecleese: You'd have to do it very quickly.
- 2:01:08Testecleese: I think, honestly.
- 2:01:10Testecleese: And I think if… I think if he arrested Netanyahu.
- 2:01:14Testecleese: And… had a jet ready to go to fly him to…
- 2:01:19Brian McFadden: Drag.
- 2:01:21Testecleese: Yeah, okay, the hag, I'm sorry, you're right, oh my god, you're right.
- 2:01:24Brian McFadden: I've been to The Hague, I know, I've taken a prisoner of war there.
- 2:01:28Testecleese: Oh, shit, I've dealt with military prisoners before, but not international prisoners.
- 2:01:35Brian McFadden: Yep, been there, done that.
- 2:01:37Testecleese: Yeah, I've told you, I did brig escort, right?
- 2:01:42Brian McFadden: Yeah, I did prisoner war export from the Bosnia to the Hague.
- 2:01:48Testecleese: Yeah, I took guys,
- 2:01:49Brian McFadden: I don't remember his name anymore.
- 2:01:50Testecleese: guys from the…
- 2:01:51Brian McFadden: he was… he was wanted by the Hague.
- 2:01:54Brian McFadden: For war crimes, so…
- 2:01:56Testecleese: Yeah, and you're like, this is a dangerous man, right?
- 2:01:59Brian McFadden: I had… he got strip shirts, and I had to take pictures of it, so…
- 2:02:03Testecleese: Oh, okay, you the guy.
- 2:02:05Brian McFadden: I was the photographer, I was the one documenting all this shit.
- 2:02:08Testecleese: I keep forgetting you are a fucking photographer.
- 2:02:11Brian McFadden: When I did brick…
- 2:02:13Testecleese: No, I… well, when I did Brig Escort, I was security. I was the guy who performed the strip search.
- 2:02:20Brian McFadden: I took pictures of you.
- 2:02:23Testecleese: They gave me choices about how to check someone's, colon.
- 2:02:27Testecleese: And, I was like, I like the squat and cough technique.
- 2:02:33Testecleese: But there's other ways you're…
- 2:02:36Testecleese: That fit the, you know, make sure no one's smuggling shit in their butt.
- 2:02:41Testecleese: But yeah, I had to…
- 2:02:43Testecleese: I went with, you know, squat while you're naked, cough, and I just make sure a little piece of a knife doesn't spit out a little bit, then go back in.
- 2:02:55Testecleese: Jeez, Louise, that was a terrifying job, though. Like, I didn't realize exactly what was going on at first.
- 2:03:01Testecleese: I remember, I was in my, working blues, it's like a… Slacks, dress shirt, tie, Taco Hat.
- 2:03:15Testecleese: And my boss at the time, told me to take my tie off, and I was like, well, it's part of my uniform.
- 2:03:21Testecleese: He's like, I can't take off my uniform. And he said,
- 2:03:26Testecleese: I can't remember the exact words, but it was something like, yes, and this man is being tried for 4 counts of murder, do you really want a noose already tied around your neck for this guy to pull tight? I was like, no, I do not want a noose tied around my neck already. I'll take my… I'll take my fucking tie off.
- 2:03:45Testecleese: Before I take this alleged murderer…
- 2:03:48Brian McFadden: Exactly.
- 2:03:48Testecleese: To court martial, you know? Yeah. But yeah, dude, it was hilarious, because I, at first, I took your tie off, and I was like, no.
- 2:03:57Brian McFadden: No.
- 2:03:57Testecleese: Pardon my uniform, right?
- 2:03:59Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:04:00Testecleese: Remember the Oregon Blues?
- 2:04:02Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah, I love the working blues, one of my favorite uniforms.
- 2:04:05Testecleese: But they were comfortable, it's not, not…
- 2:04:08Brian McFadden: And you didn't get dirty in it when you were, like, around dirt.
- 2:04:14Testecleese: See, I rarely had a chance to wear any of those uniforms, except for basically inspection. I'll be 100% honest, I wore my working blues, my dress whites, my dress blues.
- 2:04:26Testecleese: More during inspection than any other time in my entire run of the service.
- 2:04:30Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:04:31Testecleese: Well, I was always wearing coveralls, dude. I was a welder and a plumber, right?
- 2:04:35Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:04:36Testecleese: Like, I was allowed to wear coveralls in Homeport.
- 2:04:40Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:04:41Testecleese: You weren't, were you?
- 2:04:42Brian McFadden: Nope.
- 2:04:43Testecleese: Yeah, yeah. No, I wore… I wore dungarees.
- 2:04:48Brian McFadden: Dungarees would save my life if I fell overboard.
- 2:04:52Testecleese: Well, don't get me wrong, the utilities were great.
- 2:04:55Testecleese: I love my utilities.
- 2:04:58Testecleese: dungarees were…
- 2:05:00Brian McFadden: I learned how to make them float.
- 2:05:02Testecleese: Yeah, you make a light vest out of your pants! Yeah. And it's even cooler!
- 2:05:08Testecleese: Just, just a little fun, little fun fact for everyone out there. The bell-bottom pants that the Navy is known for…
- 2:05:15Testecleese: And so you can get your pants off over your boots if you go overboard, and turn your freaking pants into a life vest.
- 2:05:23Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:05:24Testecleese: You're… the Dixie Cup? The famous Dixie Cup.
- 2:05:27Testecleese: Sailor's cap that you know.
- 2:05:31Brian McFadden: Yep, that's a light… pretty much everything they had back in the day was a floating device.
- 2:05:36Testecleese: Yeah! Which I still think it's hilarious that when I went sand with you.
- 2:05:41Testecleese: It was, like, the sixth or 7th time, you're like, I just realized you're wearing a Dixie cup.
- 2:05:46Testecleese: Yep.
- 2:05:47Testecleese: And I was like, really? Like, well, it's inside out.
- 2:05:51Testecleese: Like, kinda, it's flipped down like Gilligan. You're like, oh my god, Gilligan wore a Dixie cup!
- 2:05:57Brian McFadden: Yeah, he did.
- 2:05:58Brian McFadden: That's what saved the 3-hour cruise!
- 2:06:01Testecleese: Yeah!
- 2:06:02Testecleese: 3 hours for.
- 2:06:03Brian McFadden: They floated on in on his Dixie cup.
- 2:06:08Testecleese: But yeah, I just… I remember laughing so hard when you finally realized it was… it had been several times.
- 2:06:13Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:06:14Testecleese: I think it was… I think it was because you took a picture where you're, like, picking my teeth with, like, a 15-inch Bowie knife with my Dixie cup on.
- 2:06:22Testecleese: I'm sure you remember that picture, right?
- 2:06:24Brian McFadden: I, I do remember that, yeah.
- 2:06:26Testecleese: That was a good picture, wasn't it?
- 2:06:28Brian McFadden: Yep.
- 2:06:30Testecleese: And then I never went sand with you again after my wife got drilled in the forehead by your boom.
- 2:06:41Brian McFadden: It happens.
- 2:06:43Brian McFadden: We warned her.
- 2:06:45Testecleese: He never invited me again, but that's okay.
- 2:06:48Brian McFadden: Well, you come back in the spring, you go sailing.
- 2:06:51Testecleese: Actually, that sounds like a good idea, doesn't it? Because I genuinely spend… intend to spend at least one night. Like, there's no way I'm going there and cleaning out a storage unit and driving back home, right?
- 2:07:03Brian McFadden: No.
- 2:07:04Testecleese: Jeez, guys, what is it,
- 2:07:07Testecleese: It's like a six and a half hour drive.
- 2:07:10Testecleese: It's in a straight line.
- 2:07:11Brian McFadden: I think it's a little less, but yeah, you're… you're… It's a hike.
- 2:07:16Brian McFadden: So, you might as well come down here, we go sailing, maybe do a show, you know, or we're.
- 2:07:22Testecleese: Yep.
- 2:07:23Brian McFadden: You know, and just chill.
- 2:07:26Brian McFadden: I'll find a place… I'll find a place for you to stay here.
- 2:07:29Testecleese: It'd be even better is if we could figure out
- 2:07:31Testecleese: to arrange me driving to Virginia to pick my shit up and do this?
- 2:07:37Brian McFadden: Huh.
- 2:07:37Testecleese: like, the week before you drive to Michigan to see your family.
- 2:07:41Brian McFadden: Shut up.
- 2:07:42Testecleese: Well, because then I can come to your house and do a show, right?
- 2:07:45Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:07:45Testecleese: And then, next week, you're at my house.
- 2:07:47Brian McFadden: That would be kinda cool, yeah.
- 2:07:49Testecleese: It would be pretty fun.
- 2:07:53Testecleese: Anyway… Wow. Little bit more before we go. Alright.
- 2:08:00Testecleese: Top Air Force enlisted leader announced end of active duty service, blah blah blah blah blah.
- 2:08:06Testecleese: First of all.
- 2:08:07Brian McFadden: The guy that was in charge of.
- 2:08:10Testecleese: the bombings of the Venezuelan boats.
- 2:08:13Brian McFadden: Yeah, he's SouthCom, right?
- 2:08:18Testecleese: SOCOM?
- 2:08:22Brian McFadden: I thought he was…
- 2:08:24Testecleese: Yeah, probably, well, no, he… well, he's the top Air Force enlisted leader.
- 2:08:29Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah. I'm guessing that's, like, literally.
- 2:08:32Testecleese: on, but Navy, right?
- 2:08:33Brian McFadden: Like, yeah, exactly, yeah.
- 2:08:36Brian McFadden: His wife died, so he's gonna retire.
- 2:08:40Testecleese: Yes, see, and… The title of this article, right here.
- 2:08:46Testecleese: Okay, never mind. There's a different article I read, and I went and found this one.
- 2:08:51Testecleese: Another one I read made it sound like he was leaving because of the…
- 2:08:56Brian McFadden: By means.
- 2:08:57Testecleese: the bombings.
- 2:08:59Testecleese: Exactly, and it's because… it's like, oh, he just got this job, he's leaving because of this, and you know, he had trouble, like, his wife died, like…
- 2:09:09Testecleese: retire, right? Let this be someone else's problem. Go grieve, right?
- 2:09:14Brian McFadden: Yeah, he spent 3 decades in the military, so he's fine.
- 2:09:19Testecleese: Yeah. That dude's gonna have a paycheck coming the rest of his life that's more money than almost anyone. Probably anyone who's ever listened to this show makes in a year, right?
- 2:09:29Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:09:32Testecleese: There's a chance Elon Musk listened to us once, right?
- 2:09:38Brian McFadden: No. There's no joke.
- 2:09:40Testecleese: It's a chance, you never know.
- 2:09:42Brian McFadden: No, there's no chance. I wish he did. He could donate some money to the show.
- 2:09:46Testecleese: Okay, well, there's a chance, Tim Poole listened to our show, because I've contacted him a couple times.
- 2:09:52Brian McFadden: I'm trying to get…
- 2:09:53Testecleese: I thought we were getting Trump on the show. We tried that.
- 2:09:57Brian McFadden: No, he didn't. Claire never even sent the email out.
- 2:10:01Testecleese: You don't think so?
- 2:10:01Brian McFadden: I don't think so.
- 2:10:05Brian McFadden: Let me see…
- 2:10:06Testecleese: Great wood.
- 2:10:06Brian McFadden: He doesn't even want to come on the show anymore, that tells you about the show.
- 2:10:11Testecleese: Yeah, well…
- 2:10:13Testecleese: Yeah, maybe. I think it has to do something with, with all the trend stuff going on lately.
- 2:10:21Testecleese: Honestly.
- 2:10:21Brian McFadden: She is a trans person that we both…
- 2:10:25Brian McFadden: The whole… this whole show supports her trans activity.
- 2:10:31Testecleese: Oh, it's an adult.
- 2:10:32Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:10:33Brian McFadden: She made her own decision as an adult, and that's fine. I don't have an issue with that, you know?
- 2:10:38Testecleese: After serving in the Navy.
- 2:10:40Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:10:41Testecleese: So… Yeah.
- 2:10:43Brian McFadden: I'm more worried about the transactivity of minors, you know?
- 2:10:48Testecleese: And…
- 2:10:50Brian McFadden: in sports.
- 2:10:52Testecleese: And in the service.
- 2:10:54Testecleese: And I… I love it, I listened to someone flipping out recently on, Twitter, maybe, I don't know.
- 2:11:02Testecleese: about, oh, what difference does it make to you if the person next to you on the front line in a war is trans? You know, they're gonna still save your life. I was like, no, the issue is, they're carrying less ammunition.
- 2:11:16Testecleese: on them.
- 2:11:17Testecleese: Because they have a fucking cooler!
- 2:11:19Testecleese: Full of medication that they need injected into them.
- 2:11:23Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:11:23Testecleese: every day.
- 2:11:27Testecleese: You know what I mean?
- 2:11:29Testecleese: That's the issue.
- 2:11:32Testecleese: Same reason why diabetics aren't allowed in. It's not because you have blood sugar issues, it's because you have too much upkeep.
- 2:11:40Brian McFadden: Well, I'm a diabetic after the Navy, so…
- 2:11:44Testecleese: 1 or 2.
- 2:11:46Brian McFadden: Two, of course.
- 2:11:48Testecleese: God, so… Tuesday, though.
- 2:11:50Brian McFadden: Child one. One's the child one.
- 2:11:52Testecleese: Well, okay, let me rephrase that, because I am… I know a little bit of the diabetes.
- 2:11:59Testecleese: Are you insulin dependent?
- 2:12:01Brian McFadden: No.
- 2:12:02Testecleese: Okay.
- 2:12:04Testecleese: But you have insulin.
- 2:12:05Brian McFadden: No, I take Trulicity.
- 2:12:08Testecleese: I… don't even know what that is.
- 2:12:10Brian McFadden: It's an injectable, it's like Ozembic. You've heard the commercials for Ozempic to lose weight.
- 2:12:15Testecleese: O, oh, oh, zem.
- 2:12:17Brian McFadden: Exactly, Oprah does those end dates.
- 2:12:22Testecleese: Yeah, well, I'm just… Look, my father's not insulin dependent, but he has insulin.
- 2:12:28Brian McFadden: No, I just take metformin for diabetes.
- 2:12:32Brian McFadden: Once a week, I take an injectable shot for that, so… it's not insulin.
- 2:12:39Testecleese: And it dumps the blood, the sugar from your blood into your body, so you can use it.
- 2:12:44Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:12:45Testecleese: Uber.
- 2:12:46Brian McFadden: Bruno.
- 2:12:47Testecleese: Is that… well, most people don't understand what diabetes really is.
- 2:12:52Testecleese: They know it's a sugar deficiency, and they know… most people even know it's a…
- 2:12:57Testecleese: Oh my god, what the hell is that organ called?
- 2:12:59Testecleese: Oh, pancreas, right?
- 2:13:02Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:13:03Testecleese: Yeah, it's a pancreatic issue, but they don't realize that the real issue
- 2:13:09Testecleese: It's getting the sugar that's in your blood, because you ate a bunch of food, or a bunch of sugars.
- 2:13:15Testecleese: It's pumping through your blood. The sugar in your blood's not really the issue.
- 2:13:20Testecleese: Don't get me wrong, I can be wrong. The issue is it's not getting into your body.
- 2:13:25Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:13:25Testecleese: Your body's supposed to absorb that and use it to, like, pump your heart and breathe, right?
- 2:13:34Testecleese: Alright.
- 2:13:35Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:13:36Testecleese: Alright, an Admiral has stepped down.
- 2:13:40Testecleese: During these boat strikes.
- 2:13:42Brian McFadden: Two emeralds.
- 2:13:43Testecleese: Two! Oh my goodness!
- 2:13:45Brian McFadden: Oh, no, Top, I can't read it. Top. Top Admiral, you're right. Top.
- 2:13:48Testecleese: Yeah.
- 2:13:50Brian McFadden: There's been some drinking involved in it.
- 2:13:52Testecleese: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:13:54Testecleese: Couldn't get a good story about what exactly was going on.
- 2:13:59Testecleese: But again, to make it sound like it's because of the drug boat blowing up.
- 2:14:05Brian McFadden: And they had to go rescue survivors?
- 2:14:08Testecleese: Yeah, one survivor is what I… the only one I could… I could find a bunch of articles saying Survivor is plural.
- 2:14:15Brian McFadden: But, by the time the Coast Guard got there.
- 2:14:18Testecleese: There's only, I guess, only one.
- 2:14:21Testecleese: That was still alive, but… She leads some interrogation.
- 2:14:29Testecleese: No. And I understand the argument people have, about…
- 2:14:36Testecleese: blowing up boats in the Caribbean.
- 2:14:39Testecleese: I understand it, I do.
- 2:14:41Brian McFadden: They're international waters.
- 2:14:43Testecleese: Yeah, but you can't just blow shit up in the international watts and kill me, right?
- 2:14:47Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:14:49Testecleese: Dear God, can you imagine if you decided to go fishing? I know you're not a fisherman, even though…
- 2:14:55Testecleese: That boat you got would be great for fishing, and you know it.
- 2:14:59Brian McFadden: Okay.
- 2:15:01Testecleese: Dude, do you have any idea what kind of… you eat fish?
- 2:15:06Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:15:07Testecleese: Do you know what kind of crazy fish you pull out of the ocean that are delicious right there?
- 2:15:13Testecleese: No, maybe… no, no, maybe you're right. Maybe don't eat fish anywhere near Norfolk, Virginia, right?
- 2:15:20Testecleese: There's too much oil in the water, let's be real.
- 2:15:25Testecleese: But yeah, they got this guy, so maybe they can question him.
- 2:15:28Testecleese: I understand, you can't just blow shit up and kill people.
- 2:15:33Testecleese: But,
- 2:15:35Testecleese: the United States, at the same time, cannot reveal to the world their level of surveillance technology, right?
- 2:15:43Brian McFadden: Right.
- 2:15:44Testecleese: It's like, oh, well, we could show you pictures of them loading this shit up from our satellite, but then we would let the entire world know that we can actually do this, you know what I mean?
- 2:15:54Testecleese: That we have… that we have a satellite geosynchronous orbit above Venezuela.
- 2:16:03Testecleese: maduro is rallying troops and militias right now.
- 2:16:11Testecleese: ready to fight Trump at the same time.
- 2:16:15Testecleese: Actually, you got this in leftovers.
- 2:16:17Testecleese: At the same time, Maduro also wrote a letter saying, we're gonna help you do whatever it is you wanna do.
- 2:16:24Testecleese: You know, I'm not involved in this drug cartel.
- 2:16:28Testecleese: That's when Trump was like, yeah, yeah, it's because they don't want to fuck with the United States. And Trump actually dropped an F-ball in a press conference.
- 2:16:37Brian McFadden: Yup.
- 2:16:39Testecleese: as were, like, did we actually do a flyover with the B-2s, or were we just staging them?
- 2:16:47Brian McFadden: I think we just had a flyover.
- 2:16:50Testecleese: Jeez Louise.
- 2:16:53Testecleese: And again…
- 2:16:53Brian McFadden: There's no money involved in that.
- 2:16:57Testecleese: Yeah, well, yeah, and again, like I said, Venezuela probably didn't even know it happened.
- 2:17:02Testecleese: You know?
- 2:17:05Testecleese: And, by the way, Trump has also authorized CIA operations in Venezuela.
- 2:17:10Brian McFadden: Well… it's been implied, there's no actual proof of that.
- 2:17:16Testecleese: Well, there's… you're never, ever gonna see…
- 2:17:19Testecleese: proof of CIA activity until it's in the courtroom, and you know that.
- 2:17:24Brian McFadden: Yeah.
- 2:17:26Testecleese: But he's… allegedly, he's got guys doing their thing in Venezuela.
- 2:17:30Testecleese: trying to get this intel, as we're flying over B-2 bombers, saying that, yeah, we might actually Strike.
- 2:17:39Testecleese: inland of Venezuela to take out this cartel.
- 2:17:43Testecleese: Big deal.
- 2:17:46Testecleese: Big deal.
- 2:17:48Testecleese: And I'm… seriously considering.
- 2:17:55Testecleese: buying, I keep saying this.
- 2:17:58Testecleese: Buying Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Rolls-Royce, General Electric stocks.
