SPEAKER_01
00:03 - 00:09
in 4, 3, 2, 1. Hey, Jimmy.
SPEAKER_04
00:09 - 00:19
What's up? I Joe, how you doing? I'm doing good. Now we're on the radio. Fantastic. It's 3, 3, 2, 1. The 29 minutes before 4 o'clock. Here's Val with the weather.
SPEAKER_02
00:19 - 00:22
Hot hot as fuck back to you Jimmy.
SPEAKER_04
00:22 - 00:25
Wow. So how are we got a car fire in the breakdown lane?
SPEAKER_01
00:25 - 00:32
So you were getting emotional in the green room listening to Henry Rollins talking about Putin. You're about to quote Chomsky.
SPEAKER_04
00:32 - 00:39
Yeah, so he was I just caught the end of it. I sent went in the green room and I like you know everybody loves Henry Rollins, right? And some Henry.
SPEAKER_01
00:41 - 00:45
Oh, that's why he's so good. Maybe he's constantly grinding.
SPEAKER_04
00:45 - 00:55
Yeah, but he was doing that thing about, uh, oh Putin, you know, there was a journalist wrote a book about him ended up dead. Putin's a bad guy. He's a bad guy. As opposed to who?
SPEAKER_01
00:55 - 01:34
Well, no, but you mean he's definitely a bad guy, right? We all agree that. Yeah. But, I mean, just because other people are also bad guys. Doesn't negate his point of Putin being a bad guy. What he was saying is just that it's very bizarre that the Republicans, these people that were at the forefront of the Cold War, these ones who are always, you know, I mean, these are the people that remember Kruschev banging on the desk, you know, saying, well, bury you with, with Kennedy. And these people are now Like, they're whitewashing, Putin. They're essentially like trying to paint out Putin to be a good guy because Trump is in this position where he's trying to be friends with this guy.
SPEAKER_04
01:34 - 02:40
So, uh, well, here's the quote I wanted to send you, right? So that whole thing, if, if norberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged, since it says Noom Chomsky. Uh, Putin kills journalists. We just torture ours. So, let me tell you, Manning is a whistleblower. We took Barack Obama torture. So, we have our president, our, we have presidents and vice presidents who are legit war criminals that walk around today. Then a torture program. Okay. So, you know, Barack Obama got a peace prize and then he had a kill list. A peace prize winner with a kill list. a drone kill it would you keep the kill list next to the peace price where do you keep those things are they anyway so that's some of the people that were killer American citizens no do process no do process and so it nobody has a problem with trump being buddy buddies with Benjamin Netanyahu is a psychopathic maniac who shoots who shoots with precision uh... uh... uh... uh... uh... uh... uh... medics who are trying to help people in nurses and journalists by the way well some of
SPEAKER_01
02:41 - 03:10
really troops do that. That's a really depressing thing. You know, I had Abby Martin on and she sort of illuminated that whole situation. I mean, I really didn't know how bad it was nor did she until she went over there. Right. And you know, just experiencing what it's like that the it's crazy that people that went through the Holocaust that realized the cost of dehumanizing and entire race of people now are capable at least some of them are capable of doing that to the Palestinians.
SPEAKER_04
03:11 - 05:19
Yeah, it's kind of mind blowing. So I want to hear, and I have friends who do that. Everyone's doing this, right? Everyone's getting caught up in the hysteria. That's why there's a word called hysteria, because it happens and we're in one. And you know, what I like is what Nome Chomsky said about this Russia hysteria. That's happening. He said if you care about effects on our pristine elections, which he said very sarcastically, he said if you care about what's affecting our pristine elections, the Russia gate is the last place I would look. And the first place he would look, if you go right about foreign control or influence on our government, he said he would look to Israel. They're the ones Benjamin Netanyahu came here and addressed the joint session of Congress without the permission or invitation of the president. Remember when Obama was president, and he did that, he did that. That's a guy coming here to tell our guys how to vote in direct defiance of our president and everyone embraced him. Can you imagine the Putin did that? Putin came to America and addressed our joint session of Congress against the will of the president. So this idea that somehow because Putin is a bad guy Trump shouldn't have a good friendship with him is BS. The guys who are really influencing our government here are Benjamin Netanyahu Saudi Arabia, Trump opened eight businesses in Saudi Arabia, third the election and no one gives a crap about any of that stuff because there are friends Saudi Arabia, by the way, just bombed a school. Today, school bus, 29 kids dead. So yeah, I just retweeted that from Sarah Abdullah. So why would they do that? Because they're in Yemen. They're bombing. We're committing genocide in Yemen right now. So we're helping Saudi Arabia commit a genocide in Yemen. And the way we're doing it is they're doing a thing called siege warfare, which is a war crime. And we just, in fact, they just prosecuted someone a few months ago at the Hague for it. So but we're since we're doing it and we're the enforcers. And Saudi Arabia is on the human rights council. So everything's a joke now, right? So we're past it where it's at farce. We're living in this farce. And so when I see a guy that I love, like Henry Rollins, saying stuff like, oh, Putin's the special kind of bad. I just quote back Chomsky, we have little legit war criminals, just one presidency away.
SPEAKER_01
05:19 - 05:26
So do you think he's a step removed from that though? I mean, he'll assassinate journalists in his own country.
SPEAKER_04
05:26 - 05:44
Right now, we're trying to assassinate Julian Assange. Right now, are you going to pass out? Yes, they're trying to kill that guy. Yes, they want that guy dead. Hillary Clinton was like, can't we drone that guy? Can't we kill him? Yeah, she really did say that. Yeah, she really did say that after she just got done killing Kadafi and then laughed about it.
SPEAKER_01
05:44 - 06:46
Yeah, that's, we've played that several times. We came, we saw, he died. The fact that any human being would ever do that, that she, and by the way, the way he died, that's some dark shit. They watched and they stabbed him in the asshole, and there's a video of him. They'm stabbing him in the asshole while standing there, just confused, not knowing what to do in this guy's jamming a sword up his ass. Have you seen the video? Yes. Oh, I have not seen it. Oh, my God, it's awful. You want to see it? No. The video them capturing him is fascinating because it's a guy who has lived with an iron fist, controlled these pieces. Right. It's been a brutal dictator, been a horrible monster of a human being. Now I'll see these rebels have captured them. and they can't believe they have them and they're shooting them and stabbing them and then eventually they have his body and they parade his body around after they've killed them. But there's there's there's video of him should look at it for just for a moment because it's so stunning to see him captured and alive and can't believe that these rebels have him that it's not even it's not even like yeah.
SPEAKER_04
06:47 - 06:52
You know, I have seen video of him captured and in that look on his face. So I know what you're talking about.
SPEAKER_01
06:52 - 09:38
Just the guy's shoving. But I did not. I shoving a knife up his ass. This episode is brought to you by Zipper Cruder. Look, patience is good at all.

09:40 - 11:28
I hit a dog with my car a while ago and I just can't have no stomach for any of that stuff anymore. I just I don't saw something when something that I had a real breakdown. Like we took it to the vet it lived. I didn't hit I didn't so I hit a dog it killed it. About a year and a half ago it might have already been dead because I think it was laying in the street because I didn't see it. So it had to be already lay in there anyway. So it, you know, I just, and then I saw, I was driving in my pot store in Eagle Rock and I saw this little black pup dog run across the street in front of our car and there's this big median like a grass median and it was, and I go stop, stop and the car's hasn't started coming yet the other way. And I stopped some of my wife stops and I jump out and I'm running. and I see the cars coming and they're just I don't see the dog anymore and then I see the dog next to the curb and it's kind of like just going like like that and it just crushed me like even out of think of it and you twitching like yeah yes it got hit and so we picked it up and we drank and we drove to a hospital as soon as we could I mean you know animal hospital which there was one not far away And it lived the dog lived, but I couldn't believe you take it as a pet. No, no, no, no. Um, they just might, my wife called back, you know, to the thing and they said, yeah, it's going to live and we have someone's going to take it. Okay. Thank God. But I, I was so surprised at how I just broke down over that puppy. The dog I ran over, I was like, numb to, but that dog for some reason to just everything open and I was just, I couldn't.
SPEAKER_01
11:29 - 11:34
It was such a basket car. It was such a car. It was such a car.
SPEAKER_04
11:34 - 11:49
And so it's just like I can see and I feel like I don't know if I have this, but I feel like I have PTSD over that, right? Like I weigh over reacted to that situation. So there was a lot more going on there.
SPEAKER_01
11:49 - 11:53
And so when someone says something like the Kadafi video, you're like, I can't even.
SPEAKER_04
11:53 - 12:01
Yeah, so I can't even imagine guys who have to go to war and the stuff they have to see and the things that they have to do. I don't know how they all don't come up with.
SPEAKER_01
12:01 - 12:03
Do you know anybody who went over there?
SPEAKER_04
12:03 - 12:17
Yeah, I've been, I've been to Afghanistan. No, but soldiers. But yeah, I mean, I know that not personally like they come to my show. That kind of stuff. I know those people. I don't have a close friend who was actually in combat like that. No.
SPEAKER_01
12:18 - 13:16
I have a few close friends that have been in combat and when they start drinking. And that's when, you know, inhibitions get loosened up and then the story start flowing and you know, it's most people, but it's not something people are designed to see, you know? Especially not when no one else is seeing it. The thing is, if we all lived in the Roman times and everybody was getting sorted up every day and people getting hit with arrows all the time, it's a normal part of life. People start accepting the fact that there's going to be loss. But there's something about living today where the majority of human beings live in this uber safe environment that's probably more safe than any people have ever lived ever. And just overall in general, like the modern Western civilization, but then you're going over to Afghanistan. And you're dealing with bombings and schools and buses and sniper attacks. And your buddy just lost a leg from an IED. And that kind of shit just wears on a person.
SPEAKER_04
13:17 - 13:28
and anything. I can't I can't believe we still do war like this. It's just you know, I'm very say I get in a lot of trouble because I'm anti war and all wars are bullshit.
SPEAKER_01
13:28 - 13:30
I get in trouble because you're anti war.
SPEAKER_04
13:30 - 13:50
Well, for instance, pro war. The entire establishment. is pro war. You know that every newscaster is pro war. If you're on, if you're not pro war, you don't get on TV. If you're against the war, you get fired like Phil Downey, like Ed Schultz, like Jesse Ventura, like Ashley Bamfield. If you tell like Chris Hedges, if you tell a truth about the war, you will get fired from establishment news.
SPEAKER_01
13:51 - 14:08
And there's no establishment news that will let you talk openly other than RT. RT seems to be pretty open, which is really ironic. That's ironic, right? Yeah. I mean, when Abby Martin was working for RT, it was like, Jesus Christ, like, how's that work? You know, the Empire files and you're working for Russia?
SPEAKER_04
14:11 - 14:40
I know it. It's a crazy crazy juxtaposition. It is weird. Ed Schulz was the one who said that, you know, he wasn't, he was told what to cover, what not to cover at MSNBC. He was told not to cover Bernie Sanders. He wanted to cover Bernie Sanders. Anyway, he said that the Hillary Clinton campaign and the head of NBC News Andy Lack were joined at the hip. And he tried to cover Bernie Sanders. He was told not to. He was yelled at by the head of MSNBC. That's how he described it. And a month later, he was fired. He was out.
SPEAKER_01
14:40 - 14:43
Well, Jank had a similar situation. Jank from the young Turks.
SPEAKER_04
14:43 - 14:47
Jank, he was told that our friends in Washington don't like your tone.
SPEAKER_01
14:48 - 14:49
Oh my god.
SPEAKER_04
14:49 - 15:12
That's what they told. That is hilarious. And he was winning his time slot. And they told him that. And they moved into the weekend to give Alshalp. This is true. This is true. So they moved him to the weekend. And they said they wanted him to work on his presentation skills. Guys, winning his time slot. They're saying we want you to work on your presentation skills. And meanwhile, who they're replacing with Alsharpton?
SPEAKER_01
15:12 - 15:17
He's got great presentation skills. That's all Al has. I mean, he's dead.
SPEAKER_04
15:17 - 15:41
I mean, suit on. Al Sharped did you ever see him try to read a teleprompter? It's brutal. Yeah. I mean, he's a great order. Yeah. But he's not a teleprompter, reader. No. And it was like, we used, I have clips. We used to make fun of all the time on my show of it. It was hilarious. And then the find out that that's the reason they gave was because he's a better presenter. He's a better, or he's a great order. That's different than being a news presenter. Right. And that is not in Al Sharped's wheelhouse.
SPEAKER_01
15:42 - 16:03
No, it's just he's not the most trustworthy person either. I mean, he's got a history of deception. So you having the way he got that job. Yeah, well, how about the way he became famous? The Tijuana Broly case. I mean, he became famous through deception. And so you're seeing this guy who was basically a famous con man who's now on television on a news program.
SPEAKER_04
16:04 - 16:08
Well, they have, there's a lot of, look at Brighton Williams. Yes.
SPEAKER_01
16:08 - 16:09
I mean, back.
SPEAKER_04
16:09 - 16:30
They're working here. Yes, he has the 11th hour on MSNBC. So this is everybody forgotten. Everybody has forgotten. His punishment was he had to, he had to spend six months giggling with Rachel Maddo. What do you do? They do these shows. They got like these round tables and he has to laugh and pretend they all pretend they fucked up about him.
SPEAKER_01
16:30 - 16:51
All you had to do is tell the truth and it was scary enough. No shit. Yeah, I mean you were in Iraq. You really were there. Yeah, I mean you really were there or Afghanistan was in Iraq or Afghanistan. I think it was Iraq and you really shots were fired. Why? But Hillary did the same goddamn thing. Oh, that's right. She lied about being shot at. She's fucking straight up lied about being shot in Bosnia, right?
SPEAKER_04
16:51 - 17:01
Yes, she was dead. And who was it? The was the comedian who out at her? It was uh, Simbad. Did he? Yeah, it was Simbad who was on that trip. And he's like, it was not a sniper.
SPEAKER_01
17:02 - 17:08
Oh, that's hilarious. Yeah, she was busted straight up lying about being shot at.
SPEAKER_04
17:08 - 17:26
Yeah. So it's just, it's always shocking to me when I find out that politicians are lying. Is it it's okay? It's really terrible in the truth. They're all, it's, it's weird. It's, it's such a, only the, the, the purest of people are drawn to that, the freshness. Whenever I find out that there are narcissists, Megal, it's not a cystic megalomaniacs. I'm always shocked.
SPEAKER_01
17:26 - 17:34
You know what it is, Jimmy? Well, we've not the bad apples. And then we're eventually, going to get to the good ones. Yeah, we're just going to get rid of these bad ones first.
SPEAKER_04
17:34 - 18:42
So that's why it comes back to when he was talking about how Putin is like, hey, I want to tell Trump slow down. Don't be friends with this guy. No, I want Trump to be friends with Putin because he's a nuclear power. I want Trump to be friends with anybody. We need data. You know, NATO is the one wrapping up tensions wrapping up tensions with Russia. And we have ever since the Cold War supposedly ended. And so, you know, it was just to feed anyways. So I just think, yes, Putin is a bad guy. They're all bad guys. Just why, you know, I just had John Kerry Ocu on my show. I don't know. So he is XCA guy. He went to prison because he exposed the torture program. Yeah. So Robert Mueller actually prosecuted that guy. So now he's a member of veterans intelligence professionals for sanity vips and they were They were invented or they were originally organized to debunk the weapons of mass destruction about Iraq so they were Intelligence professionals who knew what was happening that this we were being sold a bill of goods because the military industrial complex wanted it's war right? And so they they were like all the top guys Ray McGovern bill Benny and they and they created this organization to help debunk it
SPEAKER_01
18:42 - 18:45
The opening is the guy who was the first whistleblower for the NSA.
SPEAKER_04
18:45 - 19:22
Yes, right. They tried to throw and the FBI tried to throw him in jail and of course he's the smartest guy at the NSA overhead. So he outsmarted the FBI. Well, how did he do that? So he had the story. I forget the story. He told it to me, but he had them secretly recorded saying certain things. And so when they tried to show the evidence against him, he's like, actually, I got you guys and they're like, oh, shit. And so they could and so he had him so he outsmarted them and he tells the story on my show. I you know was a buddy year goes. I don't remember exactly how it went, but he told me a lot of mind blowing stuff on my show a lot of stuff just You know, like about how they spy on us.
SPEAKER_01
19:22 - 19:31
Well, he was the one that first exposed this program that was essentially spying on every single email, every single voice mail, every single conversation that you have is being recorded.
SPEAKER_04
19:31 - 21:47
So William Benny invented a thing called thin thread. So thin thread was a data collection. So what he did is he hooked up every cell phone to every cell phone in the universe. And he did it. And it was hard to do. And everybody said you couldn't do it. He did it. And so he knew that metadata was more predictive than say if I tap your phone and listen to your actual phone conversation, they actually learned more by looking at a larger data set. And when when when contact start happening, that means movements happening. That means an attack is going to happen. That means more. So it the metadata means more. And so he found a way to track people and keep your identity secret. So it was constitutional. That's what he cared about, the Constitution and the right to privacy. And thin thread did that, it was a better, and they got rid of thin thread in a couple weeks later, 9-11 happened. So that's what bill so that's who Bill Bini is and so he said they got rid of it because there's billions of dollars in the new pro they brought in a I think it was called trailblazer out and not as good as a tracker not as good as a metadata thing and but it was you know five six billion dollars to booze Allen or whoever invented it and that's what it says all about this is all about money and you don't want to disappoint people who want to have a lot of money paid their way and then so that's what so he blew the whistle on that and they come back at them and they try to put him into it. That's what they do whistleblowers. That's what we do. So that's funny to hear him say, oh, somebody wrote a bad book about Putin and they ended up dead. What do you think we do in this country? Look what they did to Chelsea Manning. Look what we did to people who exposed war crimes inside of our country. Right now we're trying to try and this act to make Julian Assange. They have them in basically solitary confinement. We literally did torture Chelsea Manning. So, and then you know, Barack Obama used He prosecuted lots of whistle blowing journalists using the enom blanking on the word. It's called, but espinaj act. So this idea that, yeah, I'm sure Putin, maybe Putin did, maybe that woman who wrote that book about Putin has a lot of powerful enemies. Usually you do. When you were that kind of a journalist where you're exposing the powerful, you probably didn't just expose Putin. So she probably exposed a lot of people. My point being is that, you know, now who's being naive gay?
SPEAKER_01
21:48 - 21:54
Well, I mean, she probably did expose a lot of people, but it's also very likely that Putin had her killed.
SPEAKER_04
21:54 - 22:08
Yeah. Yes, it is. I'm not denying that. Yeah. Barack Obama had a kill list. Yeah. So these guys are out. You know, he took us from two wars to seven. He did Libya, turned it into a failed state. Right now they have open slave trading. I know. You can watch it on YouTube.
SPEAKER_01
22:08 - 22:09
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04
22:09 - 22:17
So, so dark. And they want to do it again. They want to do it in Syria. So, let me ask you a question. If we get rid of the side in Syria, do you know who takes over?
SPEAKER_01
22:18 - 22:24
Uh, the Jesus. That's right. Who starts running things? Moses or DC around? El Cap.
SPEAKER_04
22:25 - 22:30
Elkida, El Nusra. Yeah. So that the crap.
SPEAKER_01
22:30 - 22:30
The crap.
SPEAKER_04
22:30 - 23:02
That these are always happens. The Wahabi terrorist funded by Saudi Arabia. That's who takes over. And I have videotape after videotape of our top officials admitting that Saudi Arabia funds ISIS and that we also did. So and that we created. We created Elkida. We got we created and ISIS was created because of our invasion of Iraq, but then we actually fund them and we shipped them arms. So for what reason to go over throw a side so we can put a pipeline through Syria.
SPEAKER_01
23:02 - 23:06
So we fund them so that they fight a sod, but then Saudi Arabia funds.
SPEAKER_04
23:06 - 23:47
This isn't the first time we did that. We funded Al Qaeda so they would fight the Russians. Right. So this is the same, and then we, that was when was the Mujahadi. That's when they were the Mujah, yes, Mujahadi. So, and I have video tapes of Hillary Clinton screaming about this. We created this problem. She says this on video. I have it. So, um, That's why I get in trouble because I tell the truth about the war. And if you tell the truth about the war, you'll be called a conspiracy theorist by the establishment news. That's exactly what's happened. That happened to me. Are you conspiracy theorists? No. That's what they say. You know what the biggest because I tell the truth about Syria. Right. The biggest conspiracy of my lifetime was their rack war. That was a conspiracy.
SPEAKER_01
23:48 - 24:49
Yeah. That's a legit conversation. That's a legit conspiracy. Yeah. I mean, that's one you can actually prove. Right. I mean, I used to have a whole bit about it. I used to have a whole bit about it. Like the only way to find out if someone was like from 2005, it was that the reason why they put George Bush in power is the only way to find out if someone is really stupid is to put an actual stupid guy in his president and find out if everybody freaks out. That's the only way to really tell. And we were like, well, we could put a smart guy in there and have a Mac dumb. Like, don't know. We'll never know. We'll never know. We get a dumb guy. Let's just try it out and see what happens. And then it was all the whole thing about us going to war and Iraq. Like, why did we go to the war over there? And what did we tell them? And they bought that? Holy shit. And then it was, he won again. He won again. Fuck. And then I go, and you know there's someone in the back of the room going, I think we can go, Dumber. and that became Trump. That's I mean that was from 2005 from my showtime special from 13 years ago.
SPEAKER_04
24:49 - 25:06
So let me tell you something Trump will be allowed to be president and was allowed to be president because he's doing the bidding of the establishment. They're on board with most of the stuff he's doing. They're like that he's he's not he's not pulling back at any of the wars. He's they've all ramped up the military budget isn't it funny?
SPEAKER_01
25:06 - 25:11
He's not protecting him from you or they're not protecting him from this this investigation.
SPEAKER_04
25:11 - 26:09
Well, he's nothing's happened. Right. So again, it's and by the way, what they've gotten him on is all regular corruption. Like I said, Trump is corrupt. Yes, he's corrupt. He's corrupt with Cassati Arabia. He's corrupt with Russia. He's corrupt with Israel. He's get they're all corrupt. But he's the Clinton Foundation. They're all The Chomsky quote, they all be hung if we've applied the Nuremberg standard. So this is the world we're living in. So this idea that somehow we need to focus extra on Trump and somehow put, and you know what journalists, the anti-putton journalists in Russia will tell you that we're a bunch of num skulls over here because we're inflating Putin's power. So we are blood, like he's this all powerful guy who's got his finger in every decision, everywhere at all times. Elisabeth Alonos now blaming the The green party being controlled by the Russians for an Ohio election, a special election. I'm not kidding. I could show you this way. You take some malano. You think I've, and I who does a lovely list of malano, right? She's beautiful. She's one of the prettiest of all time.
SPEAKER_01
26:09 - 26:21
I met her in a hotel once. Did you really? Wondering through the hotel. We've got to elevate it together. So here's the camp leave and a hotel elevator with the most of them on all. That is, that is it. That's it. Hello, she said a little back. That was it.
SPEAKER_04
26:21 - 26:22
Did she know you were?
SPEAKER_01
26:22 - 26:25
I don't think so. No, it was a long time ago, too.
SPEAKER_04
26:25 - 26:39
She says, you know what sucks because of our unwillingness to pass policy that protects our election integrity. I immediately think the green party votes and tonight's our Russian meddling. Why else would Eddie would cast a protest vote in Ohio when there's so much at stake?
SPEAKER_01
26:41 - 27:07
So much. It's day. That's so delusional. Like, what is a protest vote? What's your vote worth? If everyone votes, and they all vote green, is that a protest vote? It's like, is it possible that the green party can win? Like, you have no faith. So what they're doing is essentially just bowing down to a rig system, saying the system's rig. So just vote for side B, even though side A and B are funded by the same people. I know I know, but ideologically side B is our side.
SPEAKER_04
27:07 - 27:50
that's what she's saying so what they've gone past so now the hashtag resistance have gone beyond voter shaming and now what they're actually doing is democracy shaming you don't get to participate in democracy and those people so let me tell you something people say all you know the greens take away vote I would not have voted in the presidential election, if I did not have the opportunity to vote for the green party. So those votes, you don't own those votes. The way electoral politics works is that if you don't have enough votes to win, you have to go get them. And you have to appeal to those votes, but they don't have an appeal to voters. The Democratic Party, they have nothing. And so what they have left is fear and voter shaming. And that's it. Now they're actually shaming democracy.
SPEAKER_01
27:50 - 28:55
But you would also think that after we've gotten through this past election where no one literally, no one in the mainstream media, then maybe Fox News predicted that Trump was going to win. No one. They all were 100% sure. The Hillary was going to win. They were, they were had in the 90% range. of probability of her winning and they were displaying it on CNN. So they know that that's wrong. So why would someone think that a green party candidate has to be or a libertarian candidate has to be a protest vote? Why can't it be a real vote at this point? When you're talking about the kind of social media outreach that is capable today, that's possible today. Well, you a person who has some really good points and as a real, look at this woman who won in New York, the 28-year-old girls, a Democratic socialist, I like Alexandria Ocasio glasses. Look, if that doesn't tell you, like this world is changing in a radical way and upstarts and people who are huge underdogs have the possibility of winning. It's not a protest vote. It's an actual vote. And if everybody who thinks this way votes towards that protest vote, guess what? They win. That's right.
SPEAKER_04
28:55 - 29:30
That's what it is. So I used to have a joke, or I would say, no, you can't vote for a third party candidate until a lot of people are already voting for a third party candidate. Exactly. That's what they say. You can't vote for they have no chance to win. So you have to wait till a lot of people are already. So that people don't understand that inherent contradiction. And by the way, people maybe if you spent a tenth of the energy trying to excite the half of the country that doesn't vote as you do and trying to shiver shame progressives or green party or environmentalists for not giving you their vote, would you do not fucking own?
SPEAKER_00
29:30 - 29:31
Right.
SPEAKER_04
29:31 - 29:40
If you would have spent a tenth of the energy trying to excite people who don't participate to participate instead of shaming the people who do participate maybe you'd get somewhere.
SPEAKER_01
29:40 - 30:14
It's also this reluctance to admit that both sides are corrupt is this very strange thing that exists on people who operate within this narrow bandwidth and this narrow bandwidth is Whatever side you're on, whether it's you're on the right of the left, this is the side that you want to win. And it's the right side, and they're the good people, and the other side, even though, well, even though our side does wrong, this side does worse. And they operate in this real narrow bandwidth. This is why she would think something that's possibly negative for her side is a protest vote. Instead of being your actual feelings on the issue.
SPEAKER_04
30:14 - 30:55
And if these people really cared about voting integrity, wouldn't they want paper ballots? If they really cared about voted integrity, wouldn't they want rank choice voting? Wouldn't they want that? Don't you don't have to worry about this? right so it's where so you know you you get to this is my first choice this is my second choice this is my third choice so you don't get to so it it eliminates that you're a spoiler right yeah so and and they voted in in Maine and the politicians of course don't want it so they got rid of it And they had to court reinstate it. I think it's happened twice now.
SPEAKER_01
30:55 - 31:02
How does it work in terms of, like, say if you're going to vote for, you know, governor of Maine, you have a first choice of second choice.
SPEAKER_04
31:02 - 31:15
Let's say there's three choices. So you get to say, well, let's say if your first choice was a green party candidate. Okay. That's my first choice. But my second choice would be the Democrat. So in my third choice would be, you know, maybe nobody.
SPEAKER_01
31:15 - 31:17
And so does like second choice have different points.
SPEAKER_04
31:17 - 32:35
So if you're first choice doesn't get enough votes to win, then your second choice goes, right? So that's how it works. So you're never wasting your vote. And you know what's ironic is that, and I might have, you know, there's people who can better explain that. So I know people are going to be, Jamie, the way better way to say that, I'm sure there's better ways. But the thing that kills me is that Bernie Sanders, his whole career was about being an independent and I have video tapes of him saying you know what kills me as I go out they do I do these talks and I think the doctor people they come up to me after these debates and they say you know I like what you said and you you make the most sense but I can't vote for you because you're never going to win I hate that they go I want to waste my vote off there's one thing I ate more than that's that's phrase waste your vote this was what he was saying his entire career until now And I want to know why I want to know what the hell this Bernie Sanders in 2018 know that Bernie Sanders in 2006 didn't know and Bernie Sanders in 1996 doesn't know and they tells everybody you got to run and he's you know getting people to come into the Democratic Party, which is actively cheating them yet he's still running him and him yet he still runs as an independent in Maine. I mean in Vermont He still runs everybody say you got you can't he gets to run as an independent he gets to run as an independent while represented democratic parts.
SPEAKER_01
32:35 - 32:43
Yes, so they have a special sweetheart deal is was he saying when he said he's saying now that protests votes are a waste like what is he saying?
SPEAKER_04
32:43 - 34:27
He told everybody vote for Hillary. He told that. I mean, he's not starting a third party. And, you know, his whole life, he was like, he said that we have to have the the verbi she used one time, my son was that, you know, Jesse Jackson's correct. We need, we need a rainbow coalition of people. But it has to happen outside of the Democratic Party. He said that that was him. So we have to have a progressive coalition, but it has to happen outside and who better to lead it, but Bernie Sanders. So that's why it's hard to start a third party because you need people who are already famous in popular and in government. So if he left, and he got, say, Tulsi Gabbard and need a turnering El Exangior causa record, and he got a bunch of people that are super popular on the left, we'd have a third party that would be polling at 10, 15%. And now the Democrats would have to John former coalition instead of what they're doing now, which is ignoring progressives after she cheated Bernie Sanders after the Democrats cheated Bernie Sanders in the primary Hillary Clinton didn't choose Bernie Sanders as a vice president as a olive branch and choose Elizabeth Warren as an olive brand. She went to her right. She got Tim Kane, who's to the right of her, who's anti-union, who's everything bad thing you want in the corporate Democrat. He's pro-walled the whole deal. So if we had a third party that actually pulled at 10 or 15%, they wouldn't have to, they couldn't do that anymore. They'd have to do a thing called Joe Voter Outreach instead of voter shaming, or it's what it's devolved to now, which is democracy shaming. They're literally shaming people for participating in democracy. You don't get to participate in democracy because you're a third party. We'll fuck you. That's called democracy and so yes I do and I get to vote my conscience and we'll be right back.
SPEAKER_02
34:27 - 34:29
That's good break.
SPEAKER_01
34:29 - 34:47
That's good. That's good. Hey, one of the reasons why we came in today is because we wanted to talk about the Alex Jones situation. I know you were not just a vocal critic of Alex Jones, you're spitting his face on live internet. Joe, I did not spit in his face.
SPEAKER_04
34:47 - 34:49
That was completely involuntary.
SPEAKER_01
34:50 - 34:55
He coughed and liquid came out of your mouth as you know Alex Jones is hilarious.
SPEAKER_04
34:55 - 35:14
There's no doubt there's no denying that. He's occasionally very hilarious. Yes, and I told you what happened. I was walking up. He's having this they're just about to go at fist to cuffs the whole time. Yeah, and as I walk up he goes, Hey, I'm just trying to be nice. And yeah, the spit that I had a mouthful iced tea. That's my story. I'm sticking to it. Good story.
SPEAKER_01
35:16 - 35:41
You know and Trump meant to say would would actually say would yeah Yeah, he actually what did he say? I don't see any reason why they would but he meant to say would it? Yeah, that was one of the worst lies. I think anybody has ever told on television in front of millions of people that was a disturbing lie because in the context of the words in the way he is communicating it's very clear Is very clear he meant to say would.
SPEAKER_04
35:41 - 35:48
It was it was this concerning to me for a different reason. It was this concerning to me because it showed that he they could make got him to cave.
SPEAKER_01
35:48 - 35:53
Yeah, someone talked to him. Someone pulled the massage and said, do you understand what the fuck is going on here?
SPEAKER_04
35:53 - 36:39
By the way, when they go, oh, he did he Trump contradicted our intelligence communities in public in Helsinki. And that's treason. No ass wipe. That's not treason. the president sets our foreign policy. You're not supposed to contradict the fucking president. Whatever the president says goes, and I hate fucking saying this because I'm not a fucking fan of Donald Trump, but God damn it, that we all lose our head and think that the unelected spies run our foreign policy, they do not. Yeah, spies spy our spy unelected Yeah, so and the ones who let us into a rack. Let's not forget that the very do anyway Don't you ever play that video I played almost a weekly on my show of Robert Mueller lying about weapons of mass destruction to Congress to get us into the rack war Well
SPEAKER_01
36:40 - 37:13
He was misinformed at the time. He wasn't aware of all the information and you know him along with Colin Powell and many others were. They're just good guys. They're good for people. Good people. Good people do it in the bad. Those those no bid contracts at how a Burton got for billions and billions of dollars is just because they were the right ones for the job. I mean, why have bids? when you've got Halberd and you've got a guy who's really close to Halberd and Dick Cheney who used to be the CEO of Halberd and as the vice president, he got a sweet deal here. Take advantage of it.
SPEAKER_04
37:13 - 37:20
Halberd and gave Dick Cheney a $30 million down payment when he became vice president. A little bit of this. A little bit of that.
SPEAKER_01
37:20 - 38:54
Trying to help you out. I know you like to go duck hunting. Give me a nice gun. Don't shoot your friend in the face. I used to do a bit about that too. He shot his friend in the face and his friend apologized. And his friend apologized. Yeah, that's how gangster Dick Cheney is. Oh, I should have been there or look like a bird. I don't think. Oh, they were so fucking crazy. You know, we were talking about Alex Jones. Oh, okay. So he's being the platform. Yeah. I mean, it seems to be like across the board like there. It's almost They waited for Apple, it seems like. And when Apple pulled them from iTunes, then, you know, YouTube had danced with it, right? They'd given them some strikes. It was really recently, like within the last couple of months. Yeah, Facebook had given them some strikes and YouTube gave them some strikes and people like, hey, you know, there was some, I feel like almost like unfounded, um, speculation that they would remove him from the platform. I didn't have to get him removed him. That's crazy. That's too far. And then all of a sudden boom, everybody in one fell swoop Spotify is Spotify removing them. They were going to. They did. Right. iTunes removed him. But there's a loophole though that somebody I saw an article today where people like want nothing but less than total destruction. I that Apple attacked Alex Jones and got rid of him, but they offered him a safety net in the form of the app that he has on their their app store that they're still so they're trying to take that down to like take down the app.
SPEAKER_04
38:54 - 39:17
His show became instantly way more popular. Oh, I'm sure. So okay and the unintended consequences I try to tell people that you know I'm not defending Alex Jones I'm defending you know the principle of freedom of speech you know people who are convicted of killers and one death row They still get their freedom of speech. You're allowed to print articles, and they're allowed to have, you know what I mean? They're still allowed to.
SPEAKER_01
39:17 - 39:38
Well, he's allowed to still. I mean, he doesn't be silenced. He has his website, but he could put his show out on his website. He could host it from his website, and it could all be fine. But these major media companies, now, they just decided we've had enough. We don't want this on. And here's the thing, like, I don't know what he said that
SPEAKER_04
39:38 - 39:58
that they would what there was a straw that broke the camels back it seemed like it's not a recent statement that they said go to the court transcripts and we'll figure out oh there wasn't there wasn't a quote oh there's no hearing or nothing there wasn't a judicial hearing there was no come on they did they just what they they let some jack-off billionaire in the middle of the night on a whim fucking do this is that what happened
SPEAKER_01
39:58 - 40:12
You think that's what it is that was some billionaire or do you think it's the middle managers and the you know the executives at all these giant tech companies that just decided I don't know it's it's definitely
SPEAKER_04
40:14 - 40:17
The government tells Facebook what to do a lot of times.
SPEAKER_03
40:17 - 40:17
Right.
SPEAKER_04
40:17 - 40:28
And so they bow to the government all the time because they don't want to be regulated. Right. So that's why they just they just started having hearings with the that's why they had those hearings should we regulate Facebook. Right.
SPEAKER_01
40:28 - 40:54
So those hearings, by the way, were fucking bizarre. It was like a guy pretending to be human. You know, it's like some sort of a robot or an alien the way it's sip water. He would take like this. Like who fucking sips water? It was like a guy spitting dip into a glass. He would go. He does. Like there was the weirdest little sips. Someone should make a compilation of Zuckerberg sips of water.
SPEAKER_04
40:54 - 41:00
Whoever is that guy who makes that compilation of your show, he does a good job. He does a funny job on those.
SPEAKER_01
41:00 - 43:19

SPEAKER_04
43:19 - 43:21
It's like he has to think about it
SPEAKER_01
43:21 - 43:25
Hmm. Yeah. Act normal. Be human. Humans drink water. Drink the water.
SPEAKER_04
43:25 - 43:30
Look how slowly he tilted that glass. And him and the guy behind me have the same color tie.
SPEAKER_03
43:30 - 43:35
Hmm. That's the guy that they're going to shoot in the head. He's keeping eye contact while he's drinking the water. It's kind of weird.
SPEAKER_01
43:35 - 43:35
Yeah.
SPEAKER_03
43:35 - 43:39
He's trying to at least.
SPEAKER_01
43:39 - 43:46
He just want to be disrespectful. This is fantastic. That whole thing was so strange.
SPEAKER_04
43:46 - 44:00
It was so... Hey, what a better guy to protect us from fake news and tell us what's real news. And, you know, what's has integrity and what doesn't then a guy who made a couple billion dollars off his stolen idea from his friends? I mean, I think that's the perfect guy to fake.
SPEAKER_01
44:00 - 44:18
Is that the true story? Is that what he actually did? Yeah, I think so. That's what was in the movie, right? That was in the movie. That's what I know. I didn't see the movie. Oh, okay. Yeah, I know the story, though, was that he ripped people off that it wasn't his idea, but he was the one who figured out a way to wrestle it. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.
SPEAKER_04
44:18 - 46:18
Get rid just fart. But this is Matt Tabi wrote an article on this second, August 2nd about this. And there's been a lot of people being de platform from Facebook that you don't know about. Like, this isn't like, okay. So here's, here's what he's They shut down lots of other sites at the behest of the government and Israel, like the and the Atlantic Council. So pages like black elevation, they got shut down. A page called mindful being. They got shut down. A Facebook also wiped out no unite the right, too. It's which is a page appearing to advertise a counter rally on the upcoming anniversary of the violence in Charlottesville. So they shut that down, too. Let me just give you a quick quote from his article. He says Facebook was helped, and it's efforts to wipe out these dangerous memes by the Atlantic Council on whose board you'll find confidence inspiring names like Henry Kissinger, CIA chief Michael Hayden, former acting CIA head Michael Morrell, and former Bush era Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff. These people now have their hands on what is essentially a direct lever over nationwide news distribution. It's hard to state the potential mischief that lurks behind this union of internet platforms and would be government sensors. At Countries for you, one more paragraph, because this is exactly what we're talking about. He says it is already a scandal that these de facto private media regulators have secret algorithmic processes that pushed down some news organizations in favor of others, which they do. Witness the complaints by outlets like alternate truth dig and others that big platforms have been deemphasizing alternative sites in the name of combating fake news, but this week's revelation is worse. When Facebook works with the government and want to be star chamber organizations like the Atlantic Council to delete sites on national security grounds using secret methodology, it opens the door to nightmare possibilities that you'd only find in dystopian novels.
SPEAKER_01
46:19 - 46:29
So he goes out and it's awesome what he says but we would have more comfort if they would I mean there's no like one of the things that they're doing is they use that blanket term hate speech
SPEAKER_04
46:30 - 46:43
So by the way, so they're trying to put a bill. Have you heard about this in Congress to make police a protected class of people? So if you say shit about them now, it's considered hate speech. Did you know that? What? Yeah, they're trying to make peep.
SPEAKER_01
46:43 - 46:54
Yes. So fuck the police would be considered hate speech. So they would just retroactively arrest NWA. They could. And about IST and cop killer. I'm right. I'm on the fucking cop killer.
SPEAKER_04
46:54 - 47:15
And so now if you do have a rally, that's against the police. That's a hate rally. Yeah. And they can take your YouTube channel down. If you said hate stuff about the cops and so so that that's where we are hate speech the fuck. Huck him. I'm not allowed to hate shit by the way. Right. I hate Nazis. Can I say I hate fucking Nazis? I hate the KKK. Can I say I hate them? That's hate speech. Right.
SPEAKER_01
47:15 - 47:20
You strongly dislike the KKK. You can strongly dislike something.
SPEAKER_04
47:20 - 47:21
When I was a kid, I hated the fucking Dodgers.
SPEAKER_01
47:22 - 47:36
I know hate speech because I was a cubs fan and the doctor's always kicked out hate speech is a strange blanket term almost like drugs You know like drugs is caffeine, but it's also heroin, you know, it's like drugs. What's wrong with it?
SPEAKER_04
47:36 - 47:40
I don't understand what it is. There's hate out there. So what's wrong?
SPEAKER_01
47:40 - 48:49
So by the way, I but it's a bad way of expressing things like hate speech is it's it's not a good descriptive because I agree when you stop what is it in tail like you know I had a conversation with a woman at YouTube about Sam Harris and Douglas Murray in a podcast where they had had a conversation and someone put it on their YouTube channel in their playlist just put it in their playlist and they got a community guidelines I asked I asked why in the woman said very cleanly it was hate speech and I said what are you talking about? I get to do listen to it. There's a two intellectuals. There's two public intellectuals discussing immigration and some of the problems that Europe is having right now and you decided that that's hate speech and you don't even know what they said but that but the fact that she's so confidently described it in that way sort of It sort of embodies what this problem is is that they have these blanket terms. They're out of the throw on problems and there's a million other fires to put out. So there's no more need to put any more consideration to this. This guy's a problem. This is problematic. This is hate speech shut it down.
SPEAKER_04
48:51 - 49:52
People don't realize how bad it is, Joe. You do, because you know this story. But people go, oh, good for Alex Jones. He shouldn't be able to do that to stuff what he's doing. I'm like, do not understand that this is the shot across the bow that if they can do this to Alex Jones that they're coming, I've already been trashed by the establishment meeting by the Washington Post by CNN. I've already been equated to pedophiles and those kind of things and conspiracy theorists that I've been in articles with Alex Jones. They've done it to me. So because I tell the truth about the war and so The antidote to bad speech if you really hate what Alex Jones is doing the antidote to bad speech is not censorship the antidote to bad speech is more speech if you think what Alex Jones is doing needs to be debunked create a Facebook page called to bunking Alex Jones and debunk him You know, Kyle Kalinsky does that kind of stuff all the time. People do that stuff all the time. That's how you convert. If you're afraid of an idea, you don't shut down the idea. You expose the idea and you debunk it.
SPEAKER_01
49:52 - 50:25
But if you have a private platform and you own this and you start a business and your business is putting up YouTube videos and you decide that someone is putting up something that's helpful and damaging and racist, then it could be used to tack large groups of people and then you see like all the craziness that's been connected to the alt-right movement and you associate that with this individual. Do you have to keep that on your platform? I mean, there's no regulation right now. It's not like the public utilities. Right. It should be though. That's my point.
SPEAKER_04
50:25 - 50:39
My point is that 70% of the people get their news from Google and Facebook. And they're a monopoly. Right. So they have a lot of ballistic powers. Yeah, that was a that was a stat I read today. So you can't it's like, well, I'm reading that too.
SPEAKER_03
50:39 - 50:40
I don't know if I believe it.
SPEAKER_04
50:40 - 50:44
Hey, they took they took stress. Yeah, why do you think it's a stress?
SPEAKER_03
50:44 - 50:52
It's a lot of it says 45% of the people get our straight from Facebook. That means 150 million people are on Facebook every single day.
SPEAKER_01
50:52 - 50:55
Yeah, I think that's not accurate. No, but I think that's right.
SPEAKER_03
50:55 - 51:01
But when they get their news, we don't that three people in this remark. So that's numbering people right here that are, but I get my news from Google.
SPEAKER_01
51:03 - 51:15
I have that Google app on my phone and every day I go to it in the morning when I'm taking a shit and I go over like, what's crazy today? What's happening? Oh, new Porsche coming out. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on.

51:15 - 51:21
Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on.
SPEAKER_01
51:21 - 51:23
Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on.
SPEAKER_03
51:23 - 51:28
Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on.

51:28 - 51:29
Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it on. Put it
SPEAKER_04
51:30 - 52:05
like Facebook article selling advertisements time to find a day so even even even even if you quibble with those you we can't deny like Alex Jones cannot now go well just go to the other YouTube there isn't a reason you hate just go to the other Facebook there isn't so we have to recognize that the way we are organized as a society that the town square is now owned by corporations who that need to be regulated right yeah Like before, you know, when AT&T was the phone carrier for everybody, they couldn't go, I'm not going to give Alex Jones a phone service because I don't like the shitty thing. You know, you can't deny services to somebody, all that stuff.
SPEAKER_01
52:05 - 52:33
But just that's not really a valid comparison because the phone service wasn't distributed information to people. Right. The phone service is just a method of communication. It was just a utility. What he's able to do through Info Wars is if you've got him on your platform, he's going to say some things and he's going to use your platform to say some things that, you know, might not be true and might be crazy. So you got to decide like when does it become a problem? And I think where they drew the line was Sandy Hook.
SPEAKER_04
52:33 - 53:33
So here's what I say, Joe. We need to treat these as public utilities because they are right, Facebook. There is no alternative. There is an alternative to YouTube. We need to regulate them. It's long overdue, by the way. And they are monopolies. They're obvious to everyone that they're monopolies. When you invent something called WhatsApp and then Facebook buys it for $20 billion. there's a monopoly there's no way there's no way to to compete with these people so these are monopolies they need to be regulated and people need to be protected and it that's how that's where we need to go because right now we're leaving it up to the whims of a billion like you say hey if Alex Jones really did some shit that was wrong and he should be taken off or his free speech should be a bridge for it Do it. Let's see it go to a court or go to a thing or go people go well. He dox is people and he said if doxings illegal he should be prosecuted if that's what happened but you shouldn't take away did he dox people that's what they're saying they're saying he's that he's wanted he doxed people from new town or whatever
SPEAKER_01
53:34 - 54:40
from the school shooting so that's what they talked about the individuals that he gave their addresses in their lives that's what they're saying that he died but let's let's find out if you actually did that because that sounds crazy I don't know if he did but they're not saying what he actually did this is what's crazy i keep hearing that he promoted the idea that sandy hook was a false it was false and that it was a false flag and that these were all actors Right. I don't know if he actually said that. I think what he actually said was, I don't know if that happened. I think that's what he actually said. And people are saying, well, that's promoting the idea that it was a hoax. But I want to know if that's what he really said. See, I don't know if that's even the case because I've heard it I've heard it written that he promoted the idea that Sandy Hook was a conspiracy, but I did not quoting them when they say that. There's no quotes. There's no Sandy Hook was a hoax. Those kids were actors. Those kids are not dead. I don't see that anywhere. Right. But they keep attributing that to him without quotations.
SPEAKER_04
54:40 - 54:45
But again, if there was some kind of process, do process, we could go back and look at the transcript.
SPEAKER_01
54:45 - 55:23
Not only that. Not only that. If during this whole time where he's being tried, he was still able to be on YouTube and have his videos. He could show in his videos that he didn't say that. He could show what he actually said and tell you what he actually said and show clips. He can't do that anymore. So now the narrative is completely in the hands of the mainstream media, 100%. So the Alex Jones narrative is being taken 100% out of his hands. and now it's in the mainstream media and now there's a sandy hook denier conspiracy theorists right wing lunatic all these different things which may or some of it. I mean, Alex.
SPEAKER_04
55:23 - 56:16
My fucking nuts might might point is we've had nuts people with at least to love that when I was a kid Joe maybe you remember Johnny Carson used to go ape shit about the national employer. Yes. Do you remember that? It was a big deal. He would stop his show and I'm putting my foot down about this. Yeah. They still have the national and nobody said take it out of the supermarkets. Nobody was like, we got a band that newspaper because we can't handle the ideas from this newspaper. And if they're still right there, you go to Ralph's. They're right there. They're the last thing you see before they leave. They're right at the eye level for kids. Yeah. Nobody what says take away the national and quiet. I went to Facebook. They still have a Facebook page. That national and choir. Yes. So it was the world news daily and you know what the first news news story was that came up on the world news daily was a British man can only defecate through his mouth. That was the first story that came up the first story. I need to have to look for it British man defecates through his mouth. I'm like this is this is like South Park.
SPEAKER_01
56:16 - 57:09
Yeah, and it's not like you want them to be taken down as well, but it's what's interesting is like world news daily and star magazine all those they've sort of been their joke like you know it's not real you know the inquire is not real, but we know that but it's not it's somebody's buying those somebody's buying those right, but are they buying I think are they kind of buying them somebody's fun in your day somebody watches professional wrestling here goes lawsuit quotes Jones saying yes so sandy hook is a synthetic completely fake Is is a synthetic completely fake with actors in my view manufactured? Okay. I would show the video. January. January 13, 2015. The lawsuit quotes Joan saying, yeah, so Sandy. Yeah, so Sandy Hook is a synthetic completely fake with actors in my view manufactured.
SPEAKER_04
57:11 - 57:15
Um, yeah, that you actually nailed that impression.
SPEAKER_01
57:15 - 57:58
I spent a lot of time with that dude drunk and there's a he's um, like that's that's a real problem saying something like that. It's crazy, but he's he's look he his whole business is saying things that are sometimes right and saying things that are sometimes absolutely wrong. And it's all wild and it's all globalists and you've seen that song that they did where these guys took his actual words and rants, but then they have like this like emo song Singing the words. No, it's fucking genius. When we get pulled over off of YouTube, if we play that, let's find out if we get yank for this one because it's brilliant because it's it's a parody, but it's so it's so and he folks song.
SPEAKER_03
57:58 - 58:01
Yeah, he said he must sign enough first, too.
SPEAKER_01
58:01 - 58:08
Indy folk emo, it's just, you know, some low testosterone music. Let's listen to this. Let's listen to this. Let's listen to this.
SPEAKER_02
58:08 - 58:18
That's why we're just out here doing simple things pointing out that we're meant to be a nature of a natural And this is where you find the source that God made to transcend the new world order. And it's why they want to try to keep us out of it.
SPEAKER_01
58:18 - 58:19
Watch this.
SPEAKER_02
58:19 - 58:25
What? Oh, you taking the audio off?
SPEAKER_01
58:38 - 01:03:41
Alex Jones rants as an indie focus on for people that are just listening to this. You got to Google this because we removed the sound from YouTube. Oh, okay. Babies. We want to eat babies.

Do they understand this dry Santa Fe? Because this is just going to, it's, there's going to be another way. But what's the dry set effect? Barbara Streisen had a house in Malbo, just giant ass house. They took pictures of it. And she went Apeshut and you know, complain to all these, you know, newspapers and complain to the police and everything that they're taking photos of her house and get the fuck out of here. I'm Barbara Streisand and because of that, it became a giant story. The Barbara Streisand is pissed if someone's showing her house. And they're like, well, must be hell of a house. Where is it? And then There it is. The stress and effect is a phenomenon. There's the house where by an attempt to hide or move or sense or a piece of information has the unintended consequence of publicizing the information more wildly usually facilitated by the internet. Okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02
01:03:41 - 01:03:41
No, I thought you could.
SPEAKER_04
01:03:48 - 01:04:21
But on, again, people make the fall sick. Well, you're defending Alex Joe. I'm not defending. You're defending free speech. I'm defending free speech. And I understand the argument that, hey, it's a private corporation. I get that. I get that. But if you took a look at the bigger picture, these should be everyone thinks the internet should be a public utility. I mean, most people do. And that's what they're upset that they're not treating it like a public utility. Obama administration did. They decided to at the last minute. And so if you think the internet should be a public in jail, I think YouTube and Facebook should be a public utility also.
SPEAKER_01
01:04:21 - 01:04:29
And but there's there's an opening for other people to make their own YouTube, like make a version of it.
SPEAKER_04
01:04:29 - 01:04:48
If you have them in fiction capital. But you don't. And if you do start it, they'll just buy you out. Like I just showed you the example of what's app with the they give me 29, would 19 billion dollars or whatever they pay for with some crazy. So that's they just eat up their competition right now. We need to Teddy Roosevelt to come along and break up all these monopolies. It's never going to happen. The end of the empire is coming.
SPEAKER_01
01:04:49 - 01:05:23
So here's the question. Is there a valid parallel of valid comparison? Are there people that have things that are more hateful that are on YouTube that have been de-platformed? Is it the influence that he has that's terrifying? Is it the fact that He's a figurehead for this kind of stuff. Is that what it is? Like that he's the this whole info wars movement is in some people's mind a figurehead for this pro Trump thing. They're trying to stop and silence like what is it?
SPEAKER_04
01:05:23 - 01:05:43
I don't know, it's very curious that it all happened at the same time, right? And because there's a, there's a, in 1996, there was a law passed that actually, um, insulates the platforms from being sued. Did you know that? So like, platform. So if someone puts up something, and so like, say he puts something up that leads to someone getting killed, right?
SPEAKER_03
01:05:43 - 01:05:44
I'm Facebook.
SPEAKER_04
01:05:44 - 01:07:17
You can't, you can't sue YouTube. You can't sue Facebook for that's in that 1996 law. So there's that. So I get that they're a private company, but again, they have to have the protection of the law. They have Congress protecting them. So they have a certain, that's a certain, that's a type of regulation. You're regulated from, you can't sue them, right? So I'm looking for this tweet by Glenn Greenwald that really, because if we're going to take down, here I'll find it. I'll find it. Here it is. He says, There's been a tactic of sensors for centuries. They start with someone who was so utterly hated and marginalized that everyone is blinded by their hatred for the first censorship target that they cheer and forget that they're endorsing a principal and power that will then expand. Yeah, and so right now they came for the Jews. Yeah, right now we're allowing the whim of billionaires in the middle of the night to decide who gets to be on these monopolistic platforms and who doesn't if there was ten YouTube's no one would care but there isn't there's one YouTube there's one Facebook and they are monopolies and that's the world we live in right now and that's why they're doing whatever the government wants them to because they don't want the government to regulate them That's why he went there and was sipping the water like that and trying to make eye contact and be nice because he doesn't want them to regulate him. He'll do it for, I'll do the Julian Assange in 2010, gave a speech which I saw recently on a plane where he predicted this. He was like the corporations are an extension of the government and they will do the censorship in the future and that's exactly what's happening right now.
SPEAKER_01
01:07:17 - 01:07:28
So do you think is the government is censoring Alex Jones because I would think that the government is empower currently would want to keep Alex Jones in position because he's a supporter of Trump. He's a supporter of, you know,
SPEAKER_04
01:07:28 - 01:09:28
Why did so why does why is Trump going after drilling a song? It's because he's afraid he'll expose him someday. I don't know. Why is he allowing the CIA to do that? To go after drilling a song and you know that just shows you how shitty the journalist in the era in America because not one of them are standing up for drilling a song and they're all pretending that when Trump says mean things about Jim Acosta that somehow that's this unbelievable violation of our freedom of the and our press and he's got you son of a bitch. You don't care if you cared about freedom of the press, you would say something about Julian Assange, and no one is saying, what lie has Julian Assange ever printed? Never been improved. Never. What did Julian Assange do? He revealed that our election was being rigged by the Democratic Party, not Russia, but by the Democratic Party, and that is a sin you can't commit, you cannot tell the truth about the powerful. And that's what's happening right now. And, you know, he revealed the CIA, has all those spine techniques that they can get your TV to listen to you, your phone, uh, vault seven, all that stuff. He revealed, that's why they want to get him. But I, and Trump, you know, I just think that Trump is just, you know, He's not really clued in, right? He's glad to let the generals do the job and his underlings. He doesn't really want. He wants to paint broad strokes and let everyone. You want to kill Julie Sons go ahead. I don't give a half. That's I think how he feels. I don't think it's his plan to do it, but everybody else underneath it wants to, and certainly the intelligence community and everyone forgets this. Chuck Schumer went on Rachel Madhouse show, like two years ago. And right out in public said that Trump is making a mistake by crossing the intelligence community because when you mess with them, they have six ways to Sunday to mess with you back. Holy shit, and nobody cared that he said that. So what he's saying is the president should be afraid of unelected spooks. Unelected bureaucrats. They should be afraid of them. That is, and no one went, what the f? Could you imagine saying that about Barack Obama? Hey, Barack Obama better be nice to the CIA. They're going to f with him. hasn't elected official.
SPEAKER_01
01:09:28 - 01:09:32
Yes, someone that's the official saying that almost all sanctioning it.
SPEAKER_04
01:09:32 - 01:09:53
Yes, and then we have Eugene Robertson in the Washington Post writing an article begging the deep state to undermine about Trump's foreign policy. Did you see that article? No, that's right. Pulitzer Prize winner first they spend all their life denying there is a deep state and then Eugene Robertson writes an article begging the deep state to defy president president Trump.
SPEAKER_01
01:09:53 - 01:09:57
Why this so blinded by ideology that they don't see the consequences of this.
SPEAKER_04
01:09:57 - 01:10:56
There's unintended consequences and here they are and by they're coming at they've already come for me. They're already coming for the left. This is how this is how this works. So, again, that's why I warned all my friends about the Russia gate nonsense. Chomsky said, if you care about the people meddling in our election, Russia would be the last place I would look. The first place the look is concentrated capital. That's what dictates who are going to be our government. That's why we don't have the things the rest of the world has because we have a capital, has captured our government, which is why we don't have Medicare for All, which is why we don't have free college, which is why we don't have an infrastructure plan, which is why we're in a world Meanwhile, people have to country's poor low income, 63% of the country can afford a thousand dollar emergency and quarter of all kids are in poverty. In the richest country in the world, Joe, what do you call a system that takes the richest country in the world and renders half of its population poor or low income? That's a failed fucking system. And that's what we're living in right now. And it's failing worldwide.
SPEAKER_01
01:10:57 - 01:11:36
Now, if you were someone like Google or who owns YouTube or if you were iTunes or any of these platforms that have Spotify, when you get an overwhelming volume of complaints about someone who's in the news right now, Because the fact that Alex Jones is being sued by the Sandy Hook parents. This is what started this all off because it means right to people. This is so grieges these poor parents lost their children. And here's it's horrible saying that it's fake and that they don't want that on their platform. So would you think that they should just delete the episode that has that that says that?
SPEAKER_04
01:11:37 - 01:11:57
Should they do that or should they allow that episode to stream I so Here's a service solution if if there's if he did do something in a video that is illegal Take that video down until it gets adjudicated You don't the platform of 100 you don't give them the death penalty
SPEAKER_01
01:11:57 - 01:12:06
Right. So, okay, what about like storm front? What if you got like some white supremacist group that's calling for violence against people? Do you take them down?
SPEAKER_04
01:12:06 - 01:12:14
I think you would, again, you would have to, I would like to see in some kind of adjudication, you know, again, the blanket policies and things saying things like hate speech.
SPEAKER_01
01:12:14 - 01:12:14
Right.
SPEAKER_04
01:12:14 - 01:12:22
Again, it's all interpretation. And by just a week ago, Mark Zuckerberg was defending it. He was defending that that we have Holocaust and Iers on our platform.
SPEAKER_00
01:12:22 - 01:12:23
Holocaust and Iers Joe.
SPEAKER_04
01:12:23 - 01:12:35
And that's not fake news. That's not can you're not going to take that down like I just told you. They have guys defecating out their mouth. They have this thing. They have the the the the the national inquire or they're still cool.
SPEAKER_03
01:12:35 - 01:12:35
Right.
SPEAKER_04
01:12:35 - 01:12:41
So this is a very squiggly line. Joe and again there's there's no board. There's no adjudication. It's not transparent.
SPEAKER_01
01:12:41 - 01:12:44
It's not transparent. It's not rational either. This is not a rational debate.
SPEAKER_04
01:12:46 - 01:13:24
Let me just give you one more thing about what he says. This is Matt Taibi. He says the sheer market power of these companies over information flow has always been the real threat. This is why breaking them up should have long ago become a national priority. Instead, as was obvious during the Senate hearing with Mark Zuckerberg earlier this year, politicians are more interested in using then curtailing the power of these companies. the platform for their part will cave rather than be regulated. The endgame clear couldn't be clearer. This is how authoritarian marriages begin and people should be very worried.
SPEAKER_01
01:13:24 - 01:15:14
They should be worried. They should be worried especially if this does escalate. I understand that people who believe that he's a Sandy Hook deny and they read those words. They don't want him to have a platform. They don't want him to be able to spread that hate. I understand that they would feel like imagine being one of those parents and you lost your kid and you're seeing this guy on TV or on YouTube saying it's all fake. It's outrageous and it's repulsive. I agree. It's offensive and I get that. But I think it's very dangerous. it's very dangerous to silence people that may or may not have any other recourse in terms of like he doesn't have the ability to defend himself it doesn't have the ability to make a video about it unless he puts it on his own website and then who's gonna watch it like this the stuff that they're doing with YouTube it's just It's a slippery slope, you know, and especially when they use these terms like hate speech, they're not like when you say like what are they saying? They're saying that he violated their terms, correct? Yes. So what are those terms that he violated and what is a specific violation? Like what are the words that he said where you were like enough as enough? And if that's the case, how did you let him get away with saying all this other shit for years and years? And when do you draw this line? Like just that video that we played? You know, they smell like sulfur. They want to eat babies. They scream when I love Satan and they want to eat babies. Like, well, where does the line get drawn? I just, I don't think, I don't think that should be up to subjectivity. I think that should be a very, very hard question that's answered with very clear facts.
SPEAKER_04
01:15:14 - 01:15:19
You should have an adversarial judicial process with an impartial judge or jury.
SPEAKER_01
01:15:19 - 01:15:25
Right. And how would you even get someone impartial instead? They have in-house decision right?
SPEAKER_04
01:15:25 - 01:15:51
Well, you heard that. I mean, you heard Matt Tabi does delineate the people who are involved in this stuff. And by the way, Facebook's taken down pages of people who are Palestinians because the Israeli government tells them to what they do. Do you know about that, right? I had heard about this. Yes. So that's them doing the bidding. The government says, take it. Okay, take it. They don't get free speech. Okay, because I don't want the government to get mad at me because we're making so much goddamn money right now. I don't want the government to get mad at us. That's what Facebook and YouTube is doing.
SPEAKER_01
01:15:51 - 01:16:26
See, if I would like that if someone, you know, I'm not saying that no one should be taken down. If someone's calling for the death of all black people and maybe this, it's not a good place to give them a platform, but I feel like The problem that I'm having with this is these things like air quotes, hate speech. Because I told you that they said that about Sam Harrison Douglas Murray. Now that is fucking crazy. So when is it stopping hate speech? Like when do you draw the line? When it's, is it mildly offensive? Is that hate speech? Like where's it go? Where does it go? Where you're not allowed to hate people?
SPEAKER_04
01:16:26 - 01:16:34
I don't understand why you're, I don't get that. Do you get this? I'm not being a dick. I honestly, Why don't you allow to hate things? Right.
SPEAKER_01
01:16:34 - 01:16:38
Why don't I understand that calling for action. I think is the.
SPEAKER_04
01:16:38 - 01:16:42
So a call for action might be, I mean, I guess it's a legal term.
SPEAKER_01
01:16:42 - 01:17:06
This is not a legal term though. When they blanket things with hate speech, like we're saying, was calling something a drug. This is an illegal drug. Well, what if caffeine becomes an illegal drug? Then is that the same as meth? It's clearly not. There's different things. So when you say hate speech and you also lump Douglas Murray having an intellectual conversation with Sam Harris about immigration, you lump that in. So that's the cut with what I'm talking about.
SPEAKER_04
01:17:06 - 01:17:26
And so did you know that right before a fourth of July there was a newspaper? I think it was in Texas and so they wanted to for the Fourth of July. They wanted to post the Declaration of Independence. So they posted the first half of it. Yeah. Did you know about this? Yeah. Facebook gave him a strike for hate speech. Yeah. Hate speech. They gave him a strike and so now they're like they were like
SPEAKER_01
01:17:26 - 01:17:27
That was an algorithm though, right?
SPEAKER_04
01:17:27 - 01:17:55
They picked up some of the phrases I'm phrasing in there about slavery and stuff like that and then being animals or something like that. I don't know something like that. I'm not sure what it was, but then the newspaper said, now we're afraid to post the second half of the declaration because we'll get a second strike and they might pull our whole page. Yeah. So again, they released that strike, correct? So what is this, Bill, what is this idea that I need a nanny state to protect me from ideas?
SPEAKER_01
01:17:55 - 01:18:21
Well, I think they're worried about the power propaganda and it's just they don't know exactly what the consequences of suppressing that power propaganda are. I think that's really the primary issue. The worry that a guy like Alex Jones already has this massive following is what he's done by calling Sandy Hook fake. Maybe awful. I believe it is, but is it enough to completely de-platform him? How are they, how are they just to file?
SPEAKER_04
01:18:21 - 01:18:50
Well, even if it was, let's say it was. Let's just say you and I agree that it is. Okay. The shouldn't shouldn't there still be some kind of a process. This should be that's what I'm saying. It shouldn't be even if we agreed and again, I hate that guy. I hate it as much as you hate it. I'm with you and that people are gonna I know it's chill last time I was on your show. I said I said people are gonna take what I'm saying right now and twist it and that's exactly what they did to me. That's like so I'm sure people did who took it and twisted it. I don't know what they know.
SPEAKER_01
01:18:50 - 01:18:51
We don't have to name names, but what do they do?
SPEAKER_04
01:18:52 - 01:19:57
they they twisted what we were so when we're talking about Seth rich they twisted and I said you know I did was cover it on my show until the state people still say I was pushing it I do a new show I covered it But even discussing it. And even you can't even discuss, like, I couldn't cover it, couldn't discuss it. And so that's exactly what happened. Pummi caught me saying that and caught some other stuff and put it together. And I was like, son of a bitch. But you're so what are you going to do, right? So what are you going to do? So I just want people to know, this is, again, I'm just as offended as everybody. I'm saying we need to have these things be public utilities for a lot of reasons. And that, you know, exactly what Matt TIE be said. what the endgame here is very clear and they want to be able to censor people they want to be able to censor and the first people are going to come after his left wing organizations are going to come after black lives matter their command they've already come after lefties like me Joe why do you think they're going to come after black lives matter what you mean they're at the hate speech against the police you can be the already said they're controlled by the Russians who who is they who's they saying that and who's they going to come after them what do you mean by that So, well, the FBI will infiltrate them. They obviously already have you know how that works.
SPEAKER_03
01:19:57 - 01:19:57
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04
01:19:57 - 01:20:13
Yeah. See know how all that stuff works. So, that's how that stuff works. And, um, and then just credit them. And then they, they will commit violence in their name and say, oh, look, Black Lives Matters are violent. No, that was a cop do in it. You know, that you know how that. That's what happened up and dappled. You know, that's the kind of stuff they do up there. And then the paper provocateur.
SPEAKER_01
01:20:13 - 01:20:16
Yes. Exactly. Right. So, by the way, I learned about that from Alex Jones.
SPEAKER_04
01:20:17 - 01:20:21
So that's the problem with Alex Jones. He's right about stuff sometimes.
SPEAKER_01
01:20:21 - 01:26:55
And well, he was way more right about stuff in the past. Alex himself, and I've talked him about this, says he drinks too much and he's getting too crazy and he needs to go on a diet and exercise and start getting his life in order and he takes things too far sometimes and he should take those out of the rails. He goes off the rails. He and I had a conversation, but he got mad at me for saying that I didn't think George Soros was a Nazi. and so he had this whole thing we ran and ran and then we we talked back and forth and you apologize and you know he said I had something to take it to you. I'm talking to you. I'm talking to aliens. I didn't say that, you did. I think he recognizes that sometimes he's just caught up in that cycle of outrage. That cycle of outrage, there's no room for like, there's no room to step back and to sort of reset. It's just constant outrage, constantly under attack. And then there's these words that get thrown around that sort of lose their meaning, like globalists, and shills, and this sort of attitude that there's this cabal of evil that is trying to take over the world, and at one point, Alex had this idea that they were going to try to kill off most people. And you remember that? And I heard about it. There was this idea that they wanted to, uh, youth and I, or it was genocide. They wanted to, they wanted to break it down to what is the word where they talk about doing that, to talk about reducing the population. There's like some sort of a conspiracy theorist term of reduction of population to a sustainable number of super evil geniuses that could live forever. And they wanted to get it down to like, you know, 500 million people worldwide that can live for a million years. So some crazy shit. But I think that whole cycle of like constant outrage and everything's a conspiracy and you get just whacked out and caught up in it. If you go back to Alex's earlier videos, I met Alex in 98, I believe. And back then, Alex was, he was going after George W. Bush when George W. Bush was running for president. And he was saying that this guy is a puppet, and that he's a puppet of the CIA, and he supports genocide, and he was showing up at campaign rallies, and they were arresting him. He was anti-right wing. I mean, he was anti what he thought was this globalist agenda. He also infiltrated Bohemian Grove. When everybody thought that Bohemian Grove was nonsense, there's nothing really going on. He's like, no, these really rich people are getting together with heads of state and foreign dignitaries, and they're dressing up like fucking druids, and they have an effigy that they burn in front of the owl god moleque and people like he's crazy. Then he releases the video and like, oh my god, they really do do that. Like, he did some good work. The World Trade Organization protests in his video, 9-11, a road to tyranny. Right after 9-11, he releases this video that shows that the World Trade Organization protests were infiltrated by these agent provocateurs who are most likely government agents with government agent boots on, by the way, shows this in the video. They smash windows, they're all wearing masks, they light things on fire, then they're all, they all hold up in one house. They negotiate with the police and are all eventually released. This is all done under, I mean, he proved all this. He showed all how this is going. Like, look at these peaceful protesters, then the consequences of that, they established a no protest line at the WTO where you couldn't go by with a pin on. If you try to get through with a pin that said WTO with a red line through it, they told you you could not wear that pin. You can't come through here. This is a no protest zone. And he's like, this is the consequences of this kind of censorship. And this is how they establish this censorship. They make it seem like your organization is violent and dangerous by introducing violent and dangerous elements in the form of undercover police officers or military, they smash windows, tip over newspaper, stands and it was fucking create chaos so that the government has to come in because now we have a violent situation. So then the military comes in and arrest protesters and silences the protests so they don't look embarrassing in front of all these people from foreign countries that are coming here to the World Trade Organization. I didn't know he showed that, but he did. He's not wrong always. And he was more right back then. He was also more sane back then. He was more measured and more calm. He wasn't this. He didn't have the big moon face back then either and he wasn't drinking as much. I don't think in the screaming and the spitting and you know, you ask him, they'll say, well, I'm just overwhelmed by the sheer volume of corruption, all the shit that he sees every day. Look, do you remember he was crying when Trump bombed Syria? He was crying because he was crying that Trump fucked us. He, I really genuinely believe most of the time that he means well. The thing is we look for conspiracies everywhere, like everything that's a conspiracy. You're off track and I don't think there's anyone there that can sit down and go, stop, hold on. Let's examine this in a factual way. Let's stop cut the hyperbole out and let's look at what the facts are and where are we getting these facts and why do we think this is happening? Why do you think this is fake? Because that sounds fucking crazy to me. No one's there to do that. If someone was there to do that, I think he probably would be stopped and would examine things and would balance out. You know, like one of the reasons why I wanted to have him on my podcast when I did is because I want to people to see the Alex that I know. Because people like, how could you know that guy? I'm like, look at how he is when I get him high and we get drunk and he's laughing about stuff and talking about interdimensional child molesters and all that. This is what I wanted everybody to see. Like this is Alex Jones. He's a fun guy. It's just that that is not a good position to be in where you're constantly looking for conspiracies everywhere you go. And you might nail a few. But then you might call out a bunch from their fake, which not just negates the ones that you nailed. But negates everything you say. As soon as you're one of those guys that everything's a conspiracy and then dead kids aren't really dead and everyone's an actor and like everything you say, that's good, they're gonna stop.
SPEAKER_04
01:26:55 - 01:27:38
My thing is that I focus on the ones that are important, right? That I think, that's right. I care about wars and the lies that are told about wars from the media, which the media pushes every war in my lifetime. So that's the ones I care about. I hear everything you're saying. Yeah, I didn't really know. I got us again. I didn't really know much about Alex Jones until the I met him. you know, very famously at that incident. I did really, I never really watched them. I went home that night and watched some of his videos, which is when I found out some of them are really funny. And so I just, I got, I didn't really know much about them. And so I don't even know this stuff.
SPEAKER_01
01:27:38 - 01:27:42
So see if you can find it, Jamie, see you, they pull all that stuff from YouTube, everything.
SPEAKER_04
01:27:44 - 01:27:58
but doesn't somehow have it probably on their channel and I did I never did videos about him or debunk by just you know it's just I well he wasn't in my sight line of sight I was busy making fun of MSNBC and CNN that's what I like to do yeah it's
SPEAKER_01
01:28:00 - 01:29:03
It's all very confusing to me. I don't think he should say those things. I don't think he should say lies about kids not being dead. The horrors of being a parent and your kid was shot in school shooting. And then some guy is saying that there are 100% actors in fake. Yeah, that's horrible stuff. There's a guy who was one of the parents that was a conspiracy theorist until this happened. You know, he was a conspiracy theorist. He believed all that stuff. And then his son was killed. And then they started calling him a fraud and saying he was an actor and saying it never happened and that he's a paid chill. And you know, and there's a big article about this guy. I mean, you see this guy talk and it's heartbreaking. You know, you read his words, it's heartbreaking. You can't imagine your son was murdered in one of the biggest school massacres ever. It's not the biggest, right? And here's people running around e-mailing you and sending you drinks and Facebook messages that you're a fraud and that you, you know, you work for the globalists and this is all just a plot to take our guns away. It's like,
SPEAKER_04
01:29:04 - 01:29:20
that's what they say these things are that's the people who think the all these school shootings that they're all set up to make to so they can take our guns away they think that about everything they thought about the country music festival shooting in Vegas because they felt like hey here's a way to get those people on our side
SPEAKER_01
01:29:21 - 01:30:52
because those are all the second amendment people is the country music people what better people to get to turn against the second amendment that a bunch of people that are I mean I guarantee you if you had like a red light that went off every time like on the top of someone's head if there were a national rifles agency if they were an RA member in that audience I might there be a lot of fucking lights But a lot of those people are NRA people. A lot of people are gun owners. I bet it's just gun owners. How many people are gun owners? A bit fucking half at least half the audience. Probably one of the strongest demographics you could find. Country music gun owners. That's like, that's a giant connection. And so the thought was, hey, if this guy, okay, they make this Manchurian candidate, make him gun down all these people. Some people think he didn't even do it. They think they shot him in the room and then agents did it and they killed all these people and then there's bullets coming out all these different windows and all these different areas and like oh my god No, it's exhausting. I know it's exhausting, but it's also horrific man. I mean the whole thing's horrific The idea that they think that the government would create a false flag that, by the way, didn't do anything. Second Amendment's still in place, but that they would create a false flag and they would be willing to gun down. What did he killed like 50 plus people and shot like 500? Something fucking insane like that? That that would be the, that's, they would get together and go, you know what we got to do? We got to get this guy and get them, get them shoot all these people and that's how we're going to get rid of guns. It's totally unaffective. It hasn't done anything.
SPEAKER_04
01:30:53 - 01:31:35
No. Here's the thing, and I'm not the first person to make this point about guns is people who are big strong second amendment people say that, well, you know, because whenever I advocate for gun control, people say, oh, good, they only the government will have guns, which is, it's not a bad argument, right? I understand that argument. Uh, but the whole point of you keeping your guns to protect yourself from the government is that the government's going to take your rights away. So you need to have your guns to protect your rights. Well, the government already took your rights away. They're already reading your every email. They're already reading, you're listening on every, you already lost your right to privacy. They don't, you keep your guns while they took the rest of your rights away. So now you still have your guns. Now, why don't you go get your rights back? You have your gun that said, they're never going to do it. Right.
SPEAKER_01
01:31:35 - 01:31:47
I already report was an interesting take on that, right? Like the one day technology to reach a point, you know, for them was like through those little psychic dudes, that we're going to be able to predict future crime.
SPEAKER_04
01:31:47 - 01:31:56
Right. And then he'll rest you for a future crime. Yeah. Yeah, that's kind. Well, they already kind of, yeah, they kind of do that now. They can arrest you for a conspiracy to commit a crime.
SPEAKER_01
01:31:56 - 01:32:15
Well, you don't even have to have a crime, right? You just have some emails talking shit. I mean, you get a role playing thing that you do with your wife. We talk about, you know, listen, you and I, we're body and Clyde. We're going to take down the government and it's fucking kick down your door in the middle of the night. Yeah, who's that? Who's that comic who had the ice agents break down?
SPEAKER_04
01:32:15 - 01:32:25
Oh, my god, that guy. I started following him after that. He made a joke. Yeah, what was the joke? I forget, but that was a lick. I guess pretty funny, by the way, too. I guess pretty funny. I don't know.
SPEAKER_00
01:32:25 - 01:32:26
I don't know.
SPEAKER_04
01:32:28 - 01:32:34
Because that story he tells us hilarious about those ice, they were ice cops, right? Yeah. Coming into his place.
SPEAKER_01
01:32:34 - 01:33:13
What is his name? Jack Glores. Jack Glores. That's right. Part-time stand-up comic, podcast toast, and self-described pizza delivery guy who in a strange twist of fate recently found himself debating immigration policy with four home-blanc security agents in his home. The agents paid him an early morning visit last Sunday because of some jokes he tweeted about single-demyle. Holy shit. Yeah. Okay, the instrument he said, here's how Sinko tomorrow works in 2018. Why people allow the culture appropriate on the condition that you help destroy ice? You kill one ice agent. You get to wear some brown. Two kills. You get to wear a poncho. That's funny. But the pal says that.
SPEAKER_04
01:33:13 - 01:33:20
You can't joke around about killing an agent because there's, you know, so if he had a serious XM radio show, he'd be fired right now.
SPEAKER_01
01:33:20 - 01:33:24
Oh, yeah. Well, they fired Nick de Paolo for that for saying something very similar to that.
SPEAKER_04
01:33:24 - 01:33:40
And so I say about that. It's like so Nick can't make a joke about someone going into a university. Go ahead and next school shooter. That was his joke. Next school to the professor. Please go to Berkeley and go to the for teachers lounge or something like that, right? Which everyone knows is obviously a joke. He's a goddamn comedian Jesus. And he's a right wing comedian.
SPEAKER_01
01:33:40 - 01:33:41
And he's a right wing comedian.
SPEAKER_04
01:33:42 - 01:34:14
So but you can go on those same radio shows and those same radio stations and you can advocate for killing hundreds of thousands of people in another country that you don't know and nobody says shit all the time people do that people lie about so that's that's the word thing you know we can have a torture program in America nobody goes You know, it's just weird that the media goes along. They don't even call torture. They call it enhanced interrogation techniques because we're doing it. But Nick said that that's all of a sudden. So it's just such a weird, squiggly bullshit line of morality. And so, and now Nick will probably be better off for it anyway.
SPEAKER_01
01:34:15 - 01:34:51
Yeah, Nick will be better off for it and he has a podcast now, but I think unfortunately he's doing a subscription service, which I try to talk all these guys out of because you can't hear it at all. For free. You have to pay in the office. I don't know. But it limits you. That's a bad idea. Yeah, it limits your growth. I mean, he's a famous comedian, so I'm sure he'll get some money and I know he's probably doing really well with it. But it's just it's impossible to grow. Is it a subscription service? Oh, Jamie's shaking his head with it. I'm not on Patreon. for the 10 bucks same month, more more. He doesn't give you more. So it started 10 and then keep out and more.
SPEAKER_04
01:34:51 - 01:35:02
So no, what we do is we need to give all our stuff for free, except we do a couple of extra hours a week for our patrons. Yeah. That's like bonus. Right.
SPEAKER_01
01:35:02 - 01:35:09
But you don't want to. That's not the worst thing in the world. I just think that you know, and people have different. Do you do bonus stuff? No.
SPEAKER_04
01:35:09 - 01:35:13
No, everything's free. We're really lucky. You're super, super popular.
SPEAKER_01
01:35:14 - 01:35:20
Yeah, but when I wasn't super popular, it was all free, too. Yeah. I had it free in the beginning when I was getting a thousand downloads. It's always been free.
SPEAKER_04
01:35:20 - 01:35:25
I just I just wanted to start to cook at kick-in-free. When did you start to take off this show?
SPEAKER_01
01:35:25 - 01:35:29
Two years ago, three years ago, something like that. Really? Say about two years ago, three years ago.
SPEAKER_04
01:35:29 - 01:35:33
Was it an issue or what is it that you had a special guest on? What was it you think?
SPEAKER_01
01:35:34 - 01:35:51
I don't know. It's a momentum just over time. Just just always just constantly doing it grinding, being in here. Delivering on three or four days a week. Yeah, you do your best. Do your best. Get better at it. Make mistakes. Apologize for your mistakes. Keep going.
SPEAKER_04
01:35:51 - 01:36:24
Because when I did your show last time, I just, you know, you're just in my head ever since. Like I I always like you are doing what I want to do like you don't I loved when I go Joe though cuz people always trying to spread it man. I don't know how I got into a position We're have to worry about being discredited. I'm a fucking nightclub jackoff comedian and after wearing that's why you're like I don't I announced cage fighting. I spoke the pot. I'm not a reputable person. I'm like I want to be you I want to be you. That's who I want to be. I'm not a reputable person. I don't fuck you.
SPEAKER_01
01:36:24 - 01:36:33
Well, I do my best to be honest. You know, I mean, I approach issues in an honest way, but I'm not your source of reason. But you know what I mean? Yeah.
SPEAKER_04
01:36:33 - 01:36:49
I'm not, I'm not that guy. I want to be a provocateur. I want to be a guy in the outside throwing the spit balls. That's who I want to be. I want to be doing that. I'm not doing that. But somehow I got caught up in this thing where people are going to try to discredit you. God damn it. So it's like straight ahead.
SPEAKER_01
01:36:49 - 01:41:30
I'm confused, you know, I'm confused by this this Alex Jones thing because although I don't support a lot of the things that he said I don't know why more people don't think that this could be a real problem that they could just throw that hate speech blanket on things and if I didn't have that experience of talking to that woman when she was describing the Douglas Murray Sam Harris podcast, which doesn't have a single slur. It is no hateful rhetoric. It's not hate speech. I listen to it. It's just a description. I mean, it's a discussion, rather. So you have that insight. I know how calmly and confidently she said it's hate speech. It was like, you know what it was like? Do you remember those old commercials where there was a guy and he was eating with another guy? And he was saying that if you buy drugs, you support terrorism? Yeah. It's like, what do you mean? He's like, it's a fact. It's just a fact. FACT fact. And he's eating a salad. He's a no nonsense guy. Yeah. How do you mean it's a fact? It's a fact, FACT fact. You buy pot, you just put in Paris. But it's basically what she said, it's hate speech. It's basically the same sort of self-righteous incertaination. Yeah. Yeah. She didn't, you know, when I was pressing her on it, it was almost like she was my boss and I couldn't talk to her about it. I'm like, I don't work for you. You understand this kind of, this method of communication that you're accustomed to. This is not apply here. You have to, you have to discuss these ideas. I want to know the merit of your thoughts. You know, I want to see where your thought process lies that you could just throw this hate speech, black and on things, and it turns out there was no thought, and there was no consideration, there was no examination. She didn't know the content of the conversation, and her confidence in saying that it was hate speech was merely towing this company line, the same company line that got James Demore fired for the Google memo. You talk to actual evolutionary biologists and people understand psychology and people who are clinical psychologists. We'll talk to you about the real differences between men and women. What he actually said in these documents, where he didn't make some sort of a quantitative like a ruling that women are less valuable or that women are worth less money or that women are in somehow is any way of shape or form inferior. He simply wrote about clinical studies that have shown tendencies to gravitate towards different professions and even had a page and a half in that about how there's ways that we could encourage more women to get into tech. So it was not negative in any way towards women. But I saw all these people describing it as hateful rhetoric and then that it was reinforcing harmful gender stereotypes. Like what with actual studies, actual studies of science, these are harmful gender stereotypes because they don't add up to your vision of Narnia diversity that only exists in Wakanda and some clouds somewhere that you've put up. These are not real numbers. There's reasons why people gravitate towards certain professions. Some of their cultural, some of them are biological. They're fascinating to study. But it doesn't mean that a person who becomes a nurse is any better than a person who becomes a carpenter or vice or a guy who becomes a surgeon is any better than someone who becomes a computer coder. This is not what anyone's saying. What they're saying is there's reasons why people find different things interesting. Some of them might be the amount of testosterone they have in their system. The fact they have X, Y, chromosomes. They're genetic history. The history of their family and the culture that they grew up in. There's all these variables, and these variables are fascinating. But as soon as you say that these variables must even out at the end, we must have an equality of outcome based on gender and based on race. Well, you're not even talking about people anymore. Now you're just talking about something that you need to say in order for you to keep your job, because you want to keep collecting ones and zeros, and you understand that there's this confusion as to why there's not more women that are leaders. why there's not more women that are in tech, why there's not more this, why don't you really want to concentrate on diversity, you really want to concentrate on fairness, concentrate on why they're trying to keep Asians out of Harvard. How about that? Because that's some real fucking racism that's going on right now. No one's saying a word about it because it's about people that are kicking ass. They're kicking ass too hard. So they're trying to make it more difficult. This is a giant class action lawsuit. Asians are suing Harvard because it's more difficult for them to get in than anybody else.
SPEAKER_04
01:41:32 - 01:41:38
Well, when I was a kid, I was told that they pee pee in your coke. And that's, I didn't, I know I was like. He Chinese me.
SPEAKER_01
01:41:38 - 01:41:40
Yeah. Now I grew up. I know that's bullshit.
SPEAKER_04
01:41:40 - 01:41:43
That's just the thing that they would tell us. Little kids.
SPEAKER_01
01:41:43 - 01:41:45
Little kids. It's just like that. It's all of this.
SPEAKER_04
01:41:46 - 01:41:58
But it's like, Joe, I'm the same people. The antidote to if such to the Charles Murray chat with the the antidote to that isn't to sense for them. The antidote to that is is good speed more speech.
SPEAKER_01
01:41:58 - 01:42:06
It wasn't even if you wanted to, but whatever this person who put it on their playlist, which is crazy, someone got a community guidelines strike for putting it on their playlist.
SPEAKER_04
01:42:07 - 01:42:19
That's why I say we need to have it be the YouTube Facebook. These are public utilities. They need to be regulated. And there's no way, there's no getting around it, right? They have super control in our culture.
SPEAKER_01
01:42:19 - 01:42:26
They have massive impact, but so does CBS, right? So if you say something in CBS fires you, is that legal?
SPEAKER_04
01:42:26 - 01:42:36
It's a funny, that last moon buzz is getting in trouble for something he did to an actress instead of in the 80s. Yeah, and instead of him being So long time ago.
SPEAKER_01
01:42:36 - 01:42:40
Was it the 80s? I think it was at least 20 years ago.
SPEAKER_04
01:42:40 - 01:42:45
I was 1996 with the one. Oh, wasn't? Yeah. Okay. So that's still a long time ago. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01
01:42:45 - 01:42:47
So the 80s was, um, I'm sorry.
SPEAKER_04
01:42:47 - 01:42:52
That was confusing that with, uh, you're, you're thinking of this, so that's just a loan.
SPEAKER_01
01:42:52 - 01:43:18
No, I wasn't thinking this was too long. I was thinking of George to Kai. Oh. George to Kai. It's some guy popped down from the 80s. 85, said he grabbed his dick like, hey, let it go, buddy. Jesus Christ. you know it's uh... it's uh... it's also it's not this you know there was a molester my church we had a priest was a molester named father holly rocker wait a minute is a Catholic church joker what the fuck man you can't trust anybody
SPEAKER_04
01:43:20 - 01:44:48
And the kids, we used to call him happy hands-hall-hands, because he was a nerd. He was like, he's not a wrestling type guy. He would always come up like, hey, why are you doing this? You're just trying to grab me. And so we would call him happy hands-hall-hands. And we would get in trouble if they, if our parents heard us, don't get disrespectful to the, like, you know, he's grabbing our dicks. Yeah, so they finally they finally caught him and I don't know why I started talking about this but Yeah, why did I start talking about this? Oh, I know because we're talking I always we always they had George the guy we always thought It was like it was up to you to not get molested by it like if you got cost and we would laugh right we would laugh at kids who got caught so we he got a run faster fucker He would take us. He would take us. He had a summer house right with a boat and up in Wisconsin, right? So he would take us and it was like an hour and a half away. We'd get in his station wagon. He'd take like six boys up to there and we're going to go water skiing or whatever, right? And so he had the day set up where once you got there, you had to first do cleaning. So you had to change into your cleaning clothes. And yeah. Oh Jesus. And so every time we had to go in the room and change, you would find a reason to come in the room and wrestle one of us. Oh God. And then we were like, all right, we got to put up with it because we want to go in his boat. We don't wear poor.
SPEAKER_03
01:44:50 - 01:44:51
Oh my god.
SPEAKER_01
01:44:51 - 01:45:18
Who are poor? You know we grew up. Isn't it funny how it's only funny if it's you? Like you're allowed to laugh about getting molested as long as it's you. Yeah. You know like no one could say like you like he well he Jimmy was on the Joe Rogan show and he was laughing about child molestation. Oh my god. Was that is that true? Eight speech put the blanket on it. Eight speech. But no, he was he was talking about him getting molested. Well, he's normalizing sexual assault.
SPEAKER_04
01:45:18 - 01:45:29
He would take us, this priest would try to teach you how to ski. How do you teach them how to water ski? You put your dick in their mouth. Put your dick in their mouth.
SPEAKER_01
01:45:29 - 01:45:32
Do you know how to breathe underwater? Yeah, there we go. Now hold your nose.
SPEAKER_04
01:45:35 - 01:46:01
No spitting. So the way you teach what I had it's water skis. You put water skis on them and they sit there on the dock and you pull away. Right. And that's how you learn. So he would take us in shallow water and then he would go, it would put the skis on you. So he couldn't run away. And then he would like put his hands. He would put his hands underneath your crotch like this from. Right. Yep. And then he goes, now when the boat pulls it's going to pull you up like this. And it's going to get that jerk off.
SPEAKER_01
01:46:02 - 01:46:07
And the only way to get you to catch it in your mouth.
SPEAKER_04
01:46:07 - 01:46:36
And so it was a fuck man. And so we looked at it like it was your job to get out of that situation. And if you got caught, we'd all laugh at you. I remember my friend Danny. He said this, you would laugh. We let. He said we said the shallow water and he's got now off the boat. And he goes like this and Danny looks at us. And then he goes, He goes, no, he's doing front of everybody. Yes, it were laughing and laughing.
SPEAKER_01
01:46:36 - 01:46:39
Now, did he actually molest anyone?
SPEAKER_04
01:46:39 - 01:46:44
Yes, and appropriate touch of he molested people. He had to leave the church and all that stuff.
SPEAKER_01
01:46:44 - 01:46:47
He had to leave the church that he's moving. No, dismoved him.
SPEAKER_04
01:46:47 - 01:46:49
He had to leave a Arizona for a sabbatical. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01
01:46:50 - 01:47:24
Yeah, he needs our prayers at that they said out of note like a letter to everybody's house Who was in the poof you gave money they give you a letter was it here no evil the documentary where they you know there was one priest that Benedict who became the pope moved who went on to molest 100 deaf kids. Oh, no. Oh, no, yeah, horrific horrific shit that that that process of moving people was always terrifying because they basically let them know, hey, you're not even going to be punished for this. We're just going to move you. It's going to move you.
SPEAKER_04
01:47:24 - 01:47:28
Yeah. That's what we do. Yeah, I know.
SPEAKER_01
01:47:28 - 01:47:31
I don't understand terrifying terrifying stuff.
SPEAKER_04
01:47:31 - 01:47:34
Yeah, why isn't the FBI infiltrate the Catholic church?
SPEAKER_01
01:47:34 - 01:48:02
Yeah, imagine I did a joke about on stage well back. I was like, imagine if that many NASCAR drivers were fucking kids, how quick would they shut down NASCAR? NASCAR pulled into town just fucked all the kids and drove around a circle real quick. They be like, we got to shut this down. This is a crazy organization. But meanwhile, way more people are getting molested by the Catholic Church. I couldn't agree more. It's a terrifying number when you look at the numbers of people that have just accused them of sexual assault and molestation. It's terrifying.
SPEAKER_04
01:48:03 - 01:48:08
Yeah, it's terrifying and all the money they take that you give them on Sunday to go pay these people off is also.
SPEAKER_01
01:48:08 - 01:48:11
Yeah, I feel very fortunate that I ducked that. I got lucky.
SPEAKER_00
01:48:11 - 01:48:13
Was that a Catholic school? Well, you went to Catholic school?
SPEAKER_01
01:48:13 - 01:49:08
Yeah, for one year only. But the first grade, I was gone after first grade. And, you know, I had friends at state and I know the new people that got touched. You know, it's it's it's it's for people who outside the Catholic faith people are best there's something that that happened and it probably happened when they told them they couldn't get married anymore because it used to be the Pope could get married that Pope was allowed to have children and that priests were allowed to be married and priests were allowed to have children but they were rock stars you have to realize like back in the Lutheran days the days of Martin Lutheran those those guys were fucking everybody they would get you in that confession You know, in the confesium of the time when you did Dolores and Dolores, they're just sucking dicks all day. How show me how you sucked at Dolores when they were banging everybody. And then they came up with some sort of a reason why they should have to be celibate and from then on.
SPEAKER_04
01:49:08 - 01:49:40
Well, so here's what has, here's what I heard of what happened. It was that. So there was two ways to become nobility and the beneath of the time you could be born, noble, or you could get into by way into the church. And so you could become nobility. And so what would happen is these rich mother fuckers who would buy their wedding as a church would die and then other money would go to their kid their first born and the church is like we gotta get some fuck we gotta get our hands on that money. And so they passed the law. Hey nobody can get married legally. They all did they still had kids and shit and they still had mistresses and whatever. But when they died all their money and property went to the church.
SPEAKER_01
01:49:40 - 01:50:58
That makes sense and so of course it's all about my so that's the story I heard if anybody heard differently about it's about it had something to do with sex as well and preventing those guys from fucking everybody You know because they were rock stars there was no rock stars back then so the guys that they were the spokesperson for God would most likely be the ones who had the most influence in the community I mean yes Because the kid that we went to school with, who was clearly gay, and nice guy, and he was going to become a priest. When we were on high school together. So as we were riding the bus, going to high school, he was a couple years ahead of me, and he was leaving school and he was already on his way. What is it? Divinity school or seminary school? Seminary school. Seminary, I think. yeah he was on his way and we were all like we're all calling him father already and it was just ridiculous we're all accepting the fact this guy was going to be a priest but you know for him it was he was so obviously gay that you know i mean i didn't give a shit but i knew you could tell This gay is a gay guy. He never had any interesting girls. Never was around them. Kind of just an oddly feminine man and decided to take up the priesthood. And we all, you know, treated him like he was different because he was going to become a priest. It was very weird.
SPEAKER_04
01:50:58 - 01:51:02
Yeah. That, you know, priests are still treated like rock stars in the Catholic church today. I mean, you know.
SPEAKER_01
01:51:02 - 01:51:15
Yeah. And he was meanwhile just another 16-year-old kid, just like us. You know, maybe he was 17 at the time and I think I was 15. But it was just he wasn't a different than us, but we were calling him father and stuff and it was just so strange.
SPEAKER_04
01:51:15 - 01:52:04
I had two uncles that went to seminary. One of them became a priest and the other one over the summer had a friend who got pregnant and he had to stop being to get dropped out of the seminary. Wow. But when you went to my grandmother's house, As you walked up the steps into their living room, the two pictures she would have, greeting you, was a picture of both her sons and their priest outfit. So one was actually a priest and one had to go with another. But that's the picture she kept up with. The guys bring it over as four kids to her house. There's the picture of it. Daddy, why are you in the priest outfit? At one point in time. Yeah. So yeah, that's, are you still released? You still go to church? No. Okay. No. I go because my I go to church about to church in Pasadena because my my mother-in-law goes and she asked me to go. Oh, it's it's probably fun.
SPEAKER_01
01:52:04 - 01:52:13
And I said okay I'll go. I'm being protested by the Westboro Baptist Church tomorrow. Are you? Yes, we're in Kansas City. Oh, very exciting. Oh, that is it. I've always
SPEAKER_04
01:52:13 - 01:52:14
to be processed.
SPEAKER_01
01:52:14 - 01:53:44
Very excited. Good for you. Put out a press release and they even responded to my my I put out a post and they had a tweet someone who has no idea what God wants to speak and for God. I said that if God, you know, there is a God they said I was an atheist, which I'm really not. I mean, I don't consider myself anything. I don't consider myself religious. I'm not an atheist. I'm just a person who doesn't know. That's called an agnostic thing. I'm more agnostic than anything, but I don't even want to put a label on it. Why should I have to be someone's camp? You know, my opinions are allowed to evolve and I'm allowed to, and I've done a lot of drugs. I've seen some shit that I can't explain. You know, in psychedelics, man, they'll get whatever confidence you have that there's no God. You go through a DMT trip and you come out in the other end, you're like, okay, maybe I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. Maybe I don't know anything. And that's, I'm in the maybe I don't know anything camp. So I said that if there was a God, I don't know if there's God, but if there was a God, a God, he or she would probably be very disappointed. These hateful twats, particularly speak form, putting up signs to say God hates fags. Like, you really think this is what God would want. That's outrageous. And so that's what they're upset about. Yeah, that I speak for God. Oh, but they could speak for God. Yeah, they see God hates fags. They didn't see that written anywhere. Look through the Bible, never says God hates fags. That's their website is godheetsfags.com. Just stop and think about that. I think that should take their Facebook page away. Do they have a YouTube channel? The West Pro Baptist Church of YouTube channel.
SPEAKER_04
01:53:47 - 01:53:58
But don't you, I mean, don't speak. Yeah, don't you think we're living in a weird era of like people wanting to just, uh, uh, discredit people.
SPEAKER_00
01:53:58 - 01:53:59
Just like get rid of them.
SPEAKER_04
01:53:59 - 01:55:15
Like, oh, you, you don't, you don't believe this one thing that the establishment says you have to, there's only one narrative on this Syrian war. And if you go, if you go away from it, you're, you're a bad person and you're a, and you're a, and you're a, you're aologist for a side and you're a Putin puppet. It's like, what the fuck? No, I just have a different view on the war, and it's based on facts and evidence. And I don't know if you know, but those people you're trusting now were the ones who continuously lied to us. So I've never lied to you about a war. You're upset because I'm skeptical of the people who constantly lie about war. That's just the, and so that's just a weird thing and it's like this, but I guess it's probably always been this way, Joe. I don't know. I just now that I'm experienced it because I'm in the public talking about this stuff. And it's just weird how people are so quick to go along with the establishment. Look at how the lefties are defending the intelligence community, wishing Robert Mueller a fucking happy birthday on Twitter like a bunch of idiots. That's so ridiculous. It's like, do you guys have any sense of history? Do you have any sense of recent history? No. It's just it's it's shows you how the hatred of someone could make people's lizard brains excited and then rational thinking goes out the so I love, you know, Ron Policone on my show says, you know, I hate Trump as much as anybody, but I'm not going to let him steal my critical thinking skills. And so that's the same. And so the thing that I like about
SPEAKER_01
01:55:15 - 01:56:51
you know what our show does we're very consistent I don't have one set of rules first people I like and another set of rules for people I oppose and I really really appreciate that about you and that's one of the things that I said about you the first time we came on is that you shoot straight no matter whether it's right or left whatever you see you call it like you see it there's no partisan politics and I think that's very important and it's so rare it doesn't exist anymore you know I was I was watching or was listening rather the Sam Harris is one of his podcasts recently where it's guess made a really important point saying that we're at this strange time in history where the news is different depending on what channel you watch. It used to be you at different people telling you the news. Now you have different news. If you totally different. Totally different news. That's something. And it's completely partisan. It's 100% left or 100% right. And you read all in with us. And I feel like what we're talking about here and what you're describing is ideas sports. This needing to shut people down. They want to get a result. They want to win the game. Right now, they just slammed dunked on Alex Jones. And they're high five and all around the coffee shop. All the baristas are fucking psyched. They're really excited. They're making a espresso. Yeah, we shot him down. We fucking shut them down. We're gonna put on our masks and our bike locks. We're gonna whack Trump supporters in the head tonight. And like this is is a strange time for ideas. You can't even, you can't even objectively assess the merits of an idea, because the ideas have already been clearly delineated. These are the acceptable ideas.
SPEAKER_04
01:56:51 - 01:57:05
This is the acceptable parameters of this conversation. These are the acceptable ideas. And if you go over them, you are, can Persona non-Grow. Yeah, that's where it is. And then, you know, meanwhile, you turn on NBC, it's just littered with liars. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01
01:57:05 - 01:57:44
And so it's Fox and of course, you know what I love, Shepherd Smith. Sheep Smith. He's a fascinating character. What he is doing over there is going against everything. He goes to get like, you've seen what Sean Hannity says versus Shepherd Smith. Yeah, absolutely. fucking hilarious pretty funny and he's right and he's not just right he's right constitutionally like what he's saying when he's describing what Sean Hannity said versus the reality he's right he's right in terms of what is a law he's right in terms of what you know whether or not something is legal or whether or not it's unethical
SPEAKER_04
01:57:44 - 01:58:02
Yeah. And, you know, that's the thing about, like, Chef Smith, like, uh, when he gets something wrong, I think he's just genuinely getting it wrong. I don't think it's because he's trying to push it in there. He might be unconsciously corrupted, but not consciously. How did he get over there? I don't see over there. I don't know when you tell me.
SPEAKER_01
01:58:02 - 01:58:17
Do you remember when Hannity was on with combs? It was Hannity and combs? They took the weaselyist weakest looking liberal. They could find a guy who looks like he just sweats canola oil and they put him on TV opposite like this.
SPEAKER_04
01:58:17 - 01:58:37
Well, you know, right wingers, you know how Sean met him. Right wingers used to hire Allen comms to come perform at his parties and he would just cover in the corner. And then for that. I'm kidding. I feel so I feel bad making fun of him because he's not alive anymore. He's not else and comes. I'm pretty sure he's dead. Oh, when did he die? Like a year ago or two years ago.
SPEAKER_01
01:58:37 - 01:58:46
Can you Google that and see if he I'm pretty happy and him split up the band broke up long before that? Yeah. Yeah. It's like Crosby still's Nash and young. Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04
01:58:46 - 01:58:48
February last year. So yeah, he was this guy.
SPEAKER_01
01:58:48 - 01:59:02
He's a very nice guy. I'm sure he was a nice guy, but it was almost like he didn't get riled up on purpose to keep his job. He got riled up enough to make liberals look like pushovers. And so the people at home and Kansas would be like, ah, stupid liberals. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02
01:59:02 - 01:59:04
Sean had it. He's my man.
SPEAKER_01
01:59:04 - 01:59:34
Sean had he's a good American. Yes, you know like Sean Hannity was big fat white bread eat and face and that he was just the one who was telling the truth about the real problem and the Dems it's it's so fascinating to see that video with Shepherd Smith just clearly and and and and and very cleanly dissecting everything then handy says Well, the, the Iranians are here. Oh, yeah, that's the video. Six minutes of it. We can't play this, all right.
SPEAKER_00
01:59:34 - 01:59:48
On YouTube. There's no evidence to prove any of this is true every 18 months. The Russian investigation is the opposite of a hoax. And now indictments against Russian organizations and persons have been handed up.
SPEAKER_01
01:59:49 - 02:00:03
It's hilarious. Yeah, it goes on and on. It's Fox News, Shepp Smith shuts down Sean Hannity's lies and propaganda. How is shepp Smith still at Fox News? How's that work? You tell me.
SPEAKER_04
02:00:03 - 02:00:13
It's interesting, right? Yeah, it is. But that says Sean Hannity's eyes look like he's, uh, drugged up. Yeah, there she's anchor. He's eyes. He looks like something's wrong. Who's that chief anchor?
SPEAKER_03
02:00:13 - 02:00:15
Yeah. But let me other breaking news division.
SPEAKER_04
02:00:15 - 02:01:54
But let me tell you about what Sean Hannity has been doing is that woman of Alexandria Casio Cortez from New York who beat Joe Crowley and she's the big Democratic socialist and everybody's got their bushing and not over it because oh my god, uh, she's the corporate Democrats hater, the right wing. She freaks out, right? Because he's actually going to help people and Sean Hannity's been like reading out like they look what she like she wants to have us Medicare for all she wants to have free college she wants a living wage she wants to end the wars and people I'm sure almost half is out into like that sounds looking pretty good that's so I don't know if you know Sean things are tough out here in the heartland is that possible to do all those things we can I don't have to worry about medical bills for my fucking kids anymore I think that's why for that I don't have to worry about setting my kids to call it's awesome because you have more you have endless money for these wars. I'm sure you have money for us, right? I mean college subsidized. Why is it so expensive? So it's actually backfiring. In fact, there was a poll that Fox and friends and friends put out that said. Fox and friend and it said do you think the 32.6 trillion dollars for Bernie Sanders Medicare for all plan is worth it? Of course they left out the other part which turns out it saves two points something trillion dollars, right? That's the part they leave out to their gas lighting their own viewers just like all news organizations light of their own viewers. So they that pull pull went up and 73% of the Fox and friends in friends and friends viewers said they want Bernie Sanders Medicare for all 73% and 30,000 people voted in that poll. So that's not just nothing. So it's like so now they think that scary socialism doesn't scare people anymore because now there's the internet people can go look what it's like to live in Denmark.
SPEAKER_01
02:01:54 - 02:02:02
What's it like to say it though? It's like, do you say do you support communism? Do you support socialism? Then people will say no. No, it's for communism.
SPEAKER_04
02:02:02 - 02:02:19
Do you support Medicare? Yeah. Do you support Social Security? Of course. Do you support public education? Yes. Okay. Are you for public roads? Are you for the post office or for the fire department or for the, yes, yes, yes. This is also socialism. Yeah. You like libraries? Yes. That's South Socialism. Yeah. And good aspects to it.
SPEAKER_01
02:02:19 - 02:02:27
And so he's particularly like free healthcare. Who the fuck wants someone that you love to be shit out of luck where they can't go to a doctor because they can't afford it and what if they die?
SPEAKER_04
02:02:27 - 02:02:38
Come on. So when I went to Norway, my friend Steve Owen to Norway, too, and something that he noticed is no region bronze. Oh, did we ever? Anyway.
SPEAKER_01
02:02:38 - 02:02:39
And guys, too.
SPEAKER_04
02:02:40 - 02:03:07
And the guys get leave out the girl the fellas think I got to tell you they do wear comically tight pants the guys in Europe It's like you know my wife said it's like you know those she goes up the fashion designers are fucking with you. You know that right? It's like oh I always wanted to know what your keys look like shrink wrapped. That's fantastic How many comics you see on stage? You can see what their fucking phone make is, and they're key. Oh, you're driving BMW. That's nice. It's like what the fuck?
SPEAKER_01
02:03:07 - 02:03:11
You wanna make sure they can't run away, queer? Yeah. We have their legs bound up.
SPEAKER_04
02:03:11 - 02:03:34
Skinny jeans anyway, but over there when they talk about health care, we go all you like free health care. We don't call it free health care. We call it included. because it's included in your taxes, just like your public education here, just like your streets and roads here, just like your private apartment. If I were to part when you're cut, it's included. We don't go, you get free police, you get free fire to part, but no, it's included in your taxes.
SPEAKER_01
02:03:34 - 02:03:35
Road maintenance.
SPEAKER_04
02:03:35 - 02:04:25
And so that's the funny thing that Sean Hannity and the right wing, they think they can scare people by saying, look all the stuff they're off, no, if the Democrats would have been off Hillary Clinton would have been offering people something, maybe half the country who didn't vote would have came out and voted for her. So that's the thing, Democrats have nothing to offer people, and which is why they're a shit show at a failed party, and they've lost their wiped out at every level of government. And so if they take over, it's like in the Congress, there's a big chance a chance they might. It's just, again, they're, they're the ones doing the bidding for Trump. They just handed him more money for defense than he even asked for. So if Trump is, here's the thing, here's the funny thing, if Trump is a maniac, they ought to say he's unhinged, he's a maniac, and he shouldn't have his finger on the button. Let's give him $80 billion for bombs. Those two things are in congruent. Those don't go together. So you're bullshitting me at one end or another.
SPEAKER_01
02:04:25 - 02:04:31
Do you think he's gonna get through this without going to jail? He, um, yes.
SPEAKER_04
02:04:31 - 02:05:13
Do you think his son's going to go to jail? You know, I'm not a good at predicting things, but they should all go to jail because they're probably all corrupt doing corrupt shit, but if you put a special prosecutor on anybody, I could they'll find crimes on anybody, you know, the stiff they're prosecuting Maniford for It doesn't have anything to do with the election or Trump's campaign. It's all shit before the Trump's campaign when he was in collusion with Tony. But that's the, from the Podesta group. He was bottling money from fucking Ukraine and they were giving it through the Podesta foundation. He's getting charged for shit that happened before he ever even worked for Trump. So that's the part they don't tell you they go metaphor charge, but then then 80th paragraph they go this has nothing to do with the election.
SPEAKER_01
02:05:13 - 02:05:19
Every article's like that. So it's just a matter of them deciding to put a microscope up your ass and find things you did wrong.
SPEAKER_04
02:05:19 - 02:05:58
They put a microscope up Bill Clinton's ass about some land deal in Arkansas and end up going to a blow job in the Alville office and he got impeached for it. So they got rid of this special prosecutor after that because they realized that you'll find crimes at anybody if you put a special prosecutor on and they get and now they bring it back for Trump. They're not prosecuting literal fucking war criminals. Joe, literal, we know there were criminals. There was a thing called the torture program. We know that it was a real thing. No one goes to jail. Nobody's prosecuted, but goddamn it. They got a special prosecutor for Trump, not that they shouldn't. But we all know if you put a special prosecutor on anybody who was, they're going to find a lot of fucking crimes.
SPEAKER_01
02:05:58 - 02:05:59
Yeah, they know what they're doing.
SPEAKER_04
02:06:00 - 02:06:35
That's all the same game. This thing about not registering is for an agent, so they're all played the same game. They don't register as for an agent until they get caught, and then the government allows them to go back track and re-register. But they're not doing that. It's not all we're not going to let them at or for it. They made a mistake. So again, there's ways to oppose Trump. And the Russia thing isn't it the way to oppose Trump is you offer people something else. He ran to the left of Hillary Clinton on foreign policy. He wanted to end our foreign wars his according to his rhetoric in his campaign. He wanted to give everybody health care. Remember everyone's going to get health care and it's going to be cheaper. That was his plan. Of course he's now he's doing the exact opposite.
SPEAKER_01
02:06:35 - 02:06:42
Yeah. So who does the thing they say they're going to do? Whoever whoever does the thing who's ever done it.
SPEAKER_04
02:06:43 - 02:06:50
Oh, no, no, buddy. That's why no one. That's why democracy's not based on trust. It's based on mistrust. It's based on transparency.
SPEAKER_01
02:06:50 - 02:07:20
You remember that bit that Bill Hicks used to do about something along the lines of, I think that when you get elected, they bring into a smokey room filled with globalists and they show you an angle of the Kennedy assassination that you've never seen before. They roll it. They go over any questions. What's my agenda? But it almost seems like that's what happens. Obama, Obama changes tune. Remember in the hope and change website that all that shit about whistleblowers? Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_04
02:07:20 - 02:07:23
I've been afforded protection. That was all gone. The day he got elected. That was all.
SPEAKER_01
02:07:23 - 02:07:29
He took a while ago. It took a while for him being office for the realized that was still in there. I'm undeleted at all.
SPEAKER_04
02:07:30 - 02:08:26
He'd disbanded his own followers, right? So when he got elected Barack Obama, he had all these young people who were activated, and they signed up, he had a mailing list, he had all their net, and we want to go do shit for you, want to go be at, and they were like, get rid of them, and he did. He got rid of them because you can't control them. They, yes, they fuck them. And that's, you know, and, you know, then Bernie Sanders has his campaign and says, everybody, we got to fight this fucking evil machine, and then on a dime, he goes, hey, by the way, let's join this evil machine. It's still anything happens. Um, I don't know, you know, I really don't know. I about it good at that. I know what people have said. Chris had just said that Bernie Sanders didn't want to end up like Ralph Nader who was unfairly held accountable again for the Democrats lost to to fucking on game show host. Okay. And that's what this is all about. They can't come to terms with this. And they don't want us to examine the system that gave us Trump and they don't want to examine how they could have the most qualified person. Look, couldn't even beat fucking Donald Trump. That's how qualified you were. You son of a bitch.
SPEAKER_01
02:08:26 - 02:08:31
Well, they wanted Trump to win because they thought he would be the easiest guy to beat in the election.
SPEAKER_04
02:08:31 - 02:09:03
That was that. So, isn't it funny that nobody gets mad at them? Nobody's upset at Chris Hayes for having empty podiums of Trump for a whole show, which I saw. And then he wags his finger at Susan Serendon. You're the son of a bitch who propped Trump up and you didn't cover Bernie Sanders because you were fucking told not to. And we know that for a fact because of Ed Shultz. And now you're gonna pretend like you're a sanctimonious fucking prick. And you're going to wag your finger at people with no money and no power. Meanwhile, you have the biggest microphone of anybody. And you fucking propped on a Trump up. And you don't take responsibility. That's why he's a piece of shit.
SPEAKER_01
02:09:03 - 02:09:06
Look at you. He's gunning. Very excited. Very excited.
SPEAKER_04
02:09:06 - 02:09:35
That's why he's doing their bidding right now. All those people are doing their bidding because Ed Shultz revealed and filled down. And if you tell the truth, they will fucking fire your ass. They've got guys like Ellie Vesci and Rachel Maddo pretending they don't know how net neutrality works. I don't know. It's a good, it's a big thing. I know it's important, but I don't know. Wait, wait, we'll see how it's rolls out. I don't know what to do with it. That's what tools. Hey, I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, too. I'm just not being offered 30 grand a day to sell my soul. I would.
SPEAKER_01
02:09:35 - 02:09:46
It seems confusing to me that they're thinking about using Hillary again. Because it seems to me that she's starting to make her way back into new cycles and given speeches.
SPEAKER_04
02:09:46 - 02:09:56
She has a pack that's supposed to be supporting women who are running for office except not Cynthia Nixon. Well, she's going to prop up the most corrupt motherfucker in New York is had for a long time.
SPEAKER_01
02:09:56 - 02:09:59
Why? It was supposed to be about just women who's gendered.
SPEAKER_04
02:09:59 - 02:10:10
She says that's what the gender base. She said she was starting a pact to help encourage women to run. That's I read that in an interview with her and I'm like, really? Why isn't that pact then supporting Cynthia Nixon? Why are you supporting, you know, what the fuck?
SPEAKER_01
02:10:10 - 02:10:12
Of course it's all because she was gender. She was she independent.
SPEAKER_04
02:10:12 - 02:10:20
She's running a Democrat and she's running against Cuomo. And of course, I'm running for mayor.
SPEAKER_01
02:10:20 - 02:10:24
No governor governor governor for governor in New York. I knew she was running for something.
SPEAKER_04
02:10:24 - 02:10:58
I didn't know was that big. And you know, Cuomo is just one of the most corrupt moment. He's he system again. We have one party rule. We have corporate rule and all these people are in bed with the corporations because they're bought because that's the way our elections work. Right. And that's the problem. That's why Hillary Clinton has a private position in a public position. And I'm not saying she's the only one, but she's the one that we know actually literally said that because of WikiLeaks, thank God. And that again, I'll go back to Julian Assange. The fact that none of the reporters in the United States are sticking up for Julian Assange shows you that what they do is fucking wrestling, and they don't do real journalism. Wrestling.
SPEAKER_01
02:10:58 - 02:11:31
And what's really interesting about the Julian Assange thing is if you ask people what he did, because of reductionist thinking, because of their, they've allowed this narrative to play for it. They'll say he's accused of sexual assault. And when you find out the actual facts of it, he has sexual lawmen, consensual sex, and in the middle of the 90s stuck it in without a condom. And they're calling it, they were calling it surprise sex. But there's no, I mean, didn't make any sense. And why are you the practitioner to him to the United States for surprise sex that he had? And where was it? Norway or something?
SPEAKER_04
02:11:31 - 02:11:52
Of course, I want to kind of come at you. Of course, if they want to, if the CIA wants to get you the first thing, do always talk about cheese or rapists. Let's get some people. And that whole prosecutor who tries to prosecute was discredited for doing so. They were apologized to Julian, besides the UN. Yeah, and the woman stuck up for stood up for Julie in the size and the woman. Yeah, so this is one.
SPEAKER_01
02:11:52 - 02:11:56
They still have them hold up in the equity or embassy. What is he going to do?
SPEAKER_04
02:11:56 - 02:13:46
They want to kick him out, right? Well, the ACLU is, I think, supporting him in the United States. So, and, you know, certain people of character are ours, I think, supporting him or the, I guess, not him, but the idea of Journalistic integrity, freedom of speech, the right to publish. If you watch that movie, the post, which was all about a Daniel Ellsberg and the Vietnam, the Pentagon papers, which exposed that four administrations were lying to us about the Vietnam War. Not a Republican, not a Democrat there at all. Again, the same fucking two wings are the same party, two right wings. It's the military industrial party. And the hero of that movie is the woman who was the head of the Washington Post, not Daniel Ellsberg. He was the real fucking hero. But how can you make that movie in this day and age and not mention Chelsea Manning? Not mentioned Edward Snowden and not go, you know, the Daniel Ellsburgs of today, we imprison them. And that's what we're doing. We imprison the Daniel Ellsburgs of today. And everybody, I watch panels of the actors from that movie and the director and sit around talk. Nobody ever brings the shit up. It's unfucking believable to me that they don't understand that they're just They're doing that's propaganda. Look how good our Washington Post is. Washington Post went on to let us into every fucking war after that movie was supposedly made, right? So after after they did that and they printed that they backed every goddamn war sense. They're the ones who told us that So I'm head a weapons and mass destruction and it was irrefutable. That was the headline on their editorial page. It wasn't some op-ed. It was their editorial board said irrefutable. That wasn't that fake news. Should they have their Facebook page taken down? That actually led to the fucking death of millions of people. So, this is why this is why I have a show. This is what I'm talking about. In a sense, thank God the media sucks so bad because now I get to do their job. I'm a fucking idiot. I'm a sea student, jag off nightclub comedian and I do my job better than they do.
SPEAKER_01
02:13:46 - 02:13:51
Well, you don't have a boss. That's the thing. Not you're not beholden to anybody.
SPEAKER_04
02:13:51 - 02:14:58
I was just offered a TV show and I want to say by who and I was Satan and I was offered anything I wanted Jimmy you want to do you want to do five days in the morning you want to do one day a week you want to do this I'll give you your own studio your own crew the whole deal And I had to look at the guy, I said, you know, I've been waiting my whole career for someone to make me an offer like this and I just have to tell you no thanks. Wow. And he's like, what? What do you want? And I said, I don't want anything. I already have everything I want. And I, and I, I don't want to drive across town and go do a show and if somebody else is studio, I walk out my back door, I do my show and my garage. I don't fucking need your money. I don't need boss. I don't need it. I'm selling out theaters right now. That's what I want to do. I go, I don't want to spend less time on the studio and more time touring because that's fun. Dude, it is unbelievable. The best part of my life is right now. It's unbelievable. I'm so glad I didn't kill myself eight years ago. I was so close to killing myself. I'm so glad I did it. And it was my hatred for people that kept me alive. Amazing. Because I didn't want people, I already said this, I think, to you. I didn't want people to go, aha, he didn't make it. I was like, fuck you. I am making it, and then I'm gonna kill myself.
SPEAKER_01
02:15:01 - 02:15:08
Don't say that, I'll use that as let's see. See, but he killed himself. He didn't get suicide. It didn't get silence.
SPEAKER_04
02:15:08 - 02:15:13
I didn't. So I was, I was just back in Chicago and I played a place called Thalia Hall, which is fucking.
SPEAKER_01
02:15:13 - 02:15:16
That's where Brian Kalon just did his, his new special.
SPEAKER_04
02:15:16 - 02:16:26
Beautiful. I have a video up from that show on my channel. it was so I used to live when I started to be a comedian I moved to that neighborhood it was back then it wasn't a nice neighborhood right it was like a tougher neighborhood but I got to live closer to the city and all my comedian friends live there because it was affordable and now it's being gentrified and shit and they've got this new theater and it's not new but it's old and they refurbished it and it's 600 people and I came out and it was just like It was just like heaven. You know, and they're like at my whole career. I tried to figure out how to give people a stand up at the end of my set. Like how do I get what? I don't want to do it in a shitty way. I want to manipulate them, but I want to have it come from my heart and inspire people to make them want to stand up. You know, to get a standing ovation, right? And now they stand up when they come out. Wow. I don't have to worry about it. It's already done. So this is the greatest time in my life. And it's because nobody, you know, people can't get anywhere else what I'm doing. It's just nothing else like it. You know, Bill Marv got bless his soul. You know, he's a corporatist and he's part of the problem, right? And I like, I like Bill Marv. I love, I read his book that he read about, he wrote about common. I bet you didn't even know he had one. It was, it was really funny. No, no, no, the novel. Yeah, it's true. I think it was a true story.
SPEAKER_01
02:16:26 - 02:16:26
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04
02:16:27 - 02:16:40
I love that. That's a great boy. Who's one guy's name shit shit fuck chink and something else Yeah, he better be careful because that's not good about that book Yeah, ethnic slur that's right characters names.
SPEAKER_01
02:16:40 - 02:16:43
That's right. That's right. That's from the 80s wasn't it 90s 90s.
SPEAKER_04
02:16:43 - 02:18:34
Yeah, so he wrote about it. He bored about how comedy modern day comedy got started Yeah. And how it was really interesting about he would go on the road and it would be the feedback the first committee in a club had ever seen and they didn't know he was like the waitress didn't know he was leaving the next week. She had like that. It was like like it didn't sink in how things worked. It was such an interesting book to read. Anyway, but you know, now he's, you know, he pricked Braggs to give a million dollars to Barack Obama, which fantastic too, but did he really? Yeah, I'm out there. So, you know, it's just like I get it. I aspire to be Bill Mar. I aspire to be a millionaire for 30 years and a little bit out of touch. that's good for you you did it you did it so anyway but it's good you know again I get upset because I want him to be better or be more like I want him to be but it actually helps me right so the the more he's he shifts to the right the more his audience comes to me right and the more I get on stuff you as much as the name on stage of the live show people Boom, right? Yeah, it's progressives doing like him. No, he's he doesn't happen. What did that happen for Bernie Sanders campaign? Well, he doesn't get that there's a difference that there's a difference between Hillary and Bernie Sanders. How can he not get it? You tell me he's had heat we we I play videos of him saying that yeah now they were basically the same what's the big deal then these progressives are just being babies and isn't it funny progressives are being babies when they want support war-mongering corporates, but centers corporates start being adults when they fuck over progressives They don't ever accommodate them. They don't ever drop their values and come over and be progressives. We're always supposed to go that way. They never go the other way. The unity means, hey, you guys shut the fuck up and fall in line and become a corporatist. That's what they mean when they say unity. And the day it happened and I'm telling you Bernie Sanders is making a big mistake by not starting a third party right now. That's how you influence. If he does not win, the Democratic nomination in 2020, what does he built over these four years? Fucking nothing.
SPEAKER_01
02:18:34 - 02:18:35
Do you think he's gonna run?
SPEAKER_04
02:18:35 - 02:18:41
Yeah, he's gonna run. That's what this is all about. That's what this is all about.
SPEAKER_01
02:18:41 - 02:18:45
I thought he had said he was done. I thought he said he wasn't gonna try again.
SPEAKER_04
02:18:45 - 02:18:51
He's running again. I'll make that prediction. I'll make that prediction. I'll bet you $2.
SPEAKER_01
02:18:51 - 02:18:58
Double down. Okay. Five bucks. Okay. All right. I'll go five bucks. I'll tell you all you can afford five bucks.
SPEAKER_04
02:18:59 - 02:19:07
That's how my life, I can't believe it. I'm so happy. I can't believe it. It's so nice. And I have no representation right now, by the way. I've never even been better.
SPEAKER_01
02:19:07 - 02:19:10
It's almost, yes. That's even better. You get all the cheddar.
SPEAKER_04
02:19:10 - 02:19:47
I was working with this guy Alex Murray, who's a great guy. I love Alex Murray. And he got me special. He got me Comedy Central Specials, who's especially sold a book for me. It's fucking great guy. I love Alex Murray, but he got real busy, right? He represents a bunch of really be Chris Hardwick and he had like anyway, and Jim Gaff again, all these guys he represents. So he got too busy for me, which I understand. It was weird. He stopped. So we stopped working together. Right is my show. Right, is that like, what the fuck? And all of a sudden people start showing up and clubs what I'm there and I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. And we start selling out weeks ahead of time. I'm like, holy fuck.
SPEAKER_01
02:19:47 - 02:21:19
I did this Chicago theater in how many seats is that? 3700. Jesus, you are popular. Pretty popular. Jesus Christ. I don't know what happened, but I did the Chicago Theater many years ago. And I remember saying something about the podcast and I said, how many of you guys listen to podcasts? And it was a roar through the crowd. And I went, whoa. That was when I realized I was like, whoa. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I got in thing. I thought I was gonna be like 10% of the people. Yeah. I got it. I don't pay attention to anything, man. This is one of the secrets from me staying me. People have accused me of changing. It's called, I've evolved as a person. I learn more. I study myself. I am ruthlessly critical of myself. I'm very analytical, self-analytical. And I don't like a lot of the stuff I do. So I get better at it hopefully, but I just didn't know that anybody was paying attention I just wasn't I wasn't looking I don't look at numbers I don't I occasionally look and I don't I don't want any think about that and I don't think about it. I just do it But that moment where I was in front of 3700 people and how many guys listen to the podcast they went? Yeah I was like, whoa, okay, this is not what I expected. I thought it was going to be a bunch of people, you know, a bunch of people, like, no, man, no, fear factor, UFC, whatever. And that's when I realized something was going on. That's a weird feeling, right? When you realize all these people are coming to see you, because it's something you did yourself.
SPEAKER_04
02:21:19 - 02:21:23
Yeah, it was the, yes, because it's something you did. It was, it was when I stopped trying almost.
SPEAKER_01
02:21:23 - 02:21:28
It was when I was saying with Marin, you know, when Marin stopped trying is when WTF took off.
SPEAKER_04
02:21:28 - 02:22:41
Yes. That's same with me like when I stop censoring myself or over thinking like I would go on stage and I would have my jokes down to a science right and that's obviously YouTube is not that way and I just let it rip and that's the thing that connected with people so amazing and the burbank that they had that burbank comedy festival at that flapper's comedy club and they asked me to go would you do a you know your podcast here at that five o'clock on a Thursday or whatever and I was like okay I'll do it for you whatever And I did do without five people there who's gonna fucking show up at five o'clock on a Thursday in Burbank, right? Places almost full and I was like, oh, that's when I was like, whoa, what the fuck's going on? Five o'clock and there were girls there. I'm never forget this that they came from Compton. And they were like, oh, we had to get off work. We had to get a ride. We got here. We woke, we had to see, and I was like, wow, I'm really connecting with people, right? That don't look like me. But they sure the same ideology and it's just it's like when I would go see George Carlin if you ever didn't saw him live There were 80-year-old hippies and there were teenagers kids and there was everybody in between and that's what it looks like at my shows and it makes me so fucking happy It's it's so that's when it that's when it's for I was like Ooh, and I was like thanks flappers for making me do this joke is now I realize
SPEAKER_01
02:22:41 - 02:23:38
Listen, Jimmy, I'm happy for you too. And I really think that you're one of the only people out there that really doesn't tow a line one way or the other. You really do speak the truth. And I said that about you the first time. I said about you before I ever had you on. I was like, this guy just says what he thinks, whether you agree with him or disagree with him, you can't point to him and say, oh, this guy is just a left wing hack or this guy is a right wing apologist or whatever it is. You just say what you think and that is so refreshing and it's so valuable. There's just not enough of that today. There's not enough and these people that are super intelligent that think that if you vote one way, it's a protest vote and you shouldn't have a protest vote because you're throwing away your vote and you're gonna let the right wing people win like you're missing everything. You're missing this whole thing. This whole thing is super complicated. It's very complicated and the only way to see through the haze is to be honest. And you're one of the only people that's doing it.
SPEAKER_04
02:23:38 - 02:23:50
Well, I really appreciate you saying that. And I think that there's a lot of common ground, especially when it comes to getting corporations, fingers out of our government and ending wars. I think a lot of people agree on that and that actually scares the establishment.
