#2046 - Brian Redban

35:30This is It's good man the lyrics are good and it's also you have to look at it. You're in a time capsule. It was 1970 Gonna You think Shoot Why don't you look into Jesus He got the answer Wow good song right yeah now is always stuff religious I don't know According to Wikipedia he's one of the pioneers of Christian rock music. Oh, but this is good. Yeah, this is good Say you want to be a superstar, but you never hung around them up to find out who you really are Yellow fingers from the cigarettes. I like that Shoot and junk to you have been saying It's good Gonna read on valentine say it's a good fucking song and again 1970 You're new tomorrow I like you See here's the thing I've heard of churches that are like rock and roll churches like there was this Gal that I knew that worked for fear factor and She was into like this rock and roll church like she I think she had one point time shoes I don't know what she was of a different religious persuasion and then she got into this like heavy -duty Christian church That was in town where the guy was like a cool guy young guy.

37:45I go is he fucking everybody? He's like no I'm like I know how those go like he's the cool guy. He's the cool guy likes rock and roll And he also likes Jesus maybe like we're always hoping for mate We're always hoping for the guy that that's really all I want to do that's really it He's just really about Jesus and love and he's not trying to fuck everybody But that guy has not shown up yet Like almost all those guys, you know like the guy was showing his dick root and when he's Justice people remember we called that guy out a long time ago We call that guy out a long time ago Like he's too hot.

38:23He's too hot like he's too hot. He's too charismatic like why you so hot? Why so charismatic? Maybe you learn You know maybe maybe you're trying to develop a cult where like all other cults you get to bang everybody Because it's like every one of them David Kresh wakeo like I mean, I'm sure you could go down the list. It's like every one of them become like the one the holy hell for the place that I almost bought Guys fucking everybody god eat him by the guy I should have it. I've been a better story They're both good stories that the location we have now is absolutely perfect But that location would have been dope too.

39:04You just would have had to drive there But people would have drove there and also we would have had Philip was gonna do a restaurant there Philip Franklin Lee We had a good setup there, but there was too much shit. It was like it was like this is not this is not set up good Like there was a lot of problems. Yeah problems to the point where like this could This could take a lot this could be a lot of issues that I didn't want to disclose right Yeah, it was enough where we're like I gotta get out of this. Yeah But then when the the mothership spot the ritz opened up. I was like oh my god This is a theater from 1927 and then we walked into it is like the theater was like this is the spot like it was talking to us It sounds so kooky But that place like one of the reasons why I think it's so fun there is because the building wants us to be there the buildings Happy that building was lonely.

39:54It's sat there for years unoccupied alamo draft house closed down nothing was in there And you know it probably missed the music man. Steve very Vaughn used to play there probably missed up fun the live the energy of the live crowds So like when we first opened up It's I know it sounds stupid, but it felt like the building was happy It's always had been there entertaining people music movies comedy now like it's literally never been back like negative Energy there. Well, it was a porn theater. I think that's even better Well, it was back when dudes didn't have VHS tapes they'd have to go somewhere and walk off You imagine if you got addicted to porn and the only way to get it to go to a movie theater with a raincoat off Do you remember that place in San Francisco where it was a movie theater and there was all these people sitting there Where was that we were at cobs once and we just like went into this weird like it was like I think Like connected to a strip club or something, but they had this whole section and I think it was me and Ari I thought you were with me But we went around this corner and it was like a straight movie theater and people just sitting there like four people watching porn Watching porn.

41:00Yeah, they they had one of those in West Hollywood. There was a gay one that was open Pretty recently up until like it links like the two thousands because I remember we would always laugh about the titles the titles were hilarious The titles of these fucking movies were amazing. I wonder if that's still a doubt. It's I don't think so I don't think it's But it like that's one of those things where like they get mad if dudes jerk off there, which is so cookie It's like what do you what kind of a business do you think you're running? You know like that's when P. We Herman got arrested That's right.

41:34Yeah, same thing. Yeah, he was at a theater Poor guy poor guy. I mean that was back when you weren't a lot of jerk off Just saying they're masturbating I know it is a superstar That's it's crazy the guys is this giant global superstar to this day Peewee's big adventure It's like one of my I fucking love that movie. It's so fun I remember I went to see that movie with my high school girlfriend and we were both just howling laughing We couldn't it was so silly Tom large March century It's so fun this fucking dude and his big adventure. It was a fun movie, you know It like it takes you on a little journey.

42:15It was a good time To have that poor guy get raked through the coals because he was beating off It is weird though when celebrities like that do stuff like that. It's almost like the He want to get caught type thing You know, I think it's probably I mean if you're I mean With there were VHS tapes back then. Oh, yeah, that's it's weird. Yeah, that's so that's where I get towards Michael going into a rest stop Multiple times you know, yeah, I think he was tortured. I think when you have a secret like that like The your secret is like literally your sexual identity like you're like you pretending you're into girls But you're really into guys and you get famous You get hugely famous as this You know sex symbol.

43:07I got a face I got a he's fucking talented too, man. He was so good And then you can't tell everybody that you're gay because you'll lose What percentage of the crowd the way I'm your screwed when I a bit It's got that's awful. When we knew we know a couple guys are in the closet and they live in hell. Yeah Yeah, try working with Talking about Son of a bitch everybody always assumes I'm talking about Toadie so it's great. It's so great. I in yeah, totally but yeah Definitely.

43:54Why don't you look into Jesus? You just have to get the answer. No. So I can dig until you're going sane. That's a negative purple brain. Why don't you look into Jesus? You should write your own new lyrics to it. Yeah. That's how Christians really wanted to get somebody. Or any religion. They really want to get someone. Have some dope artwork attached to your ideology. You know, have something that people dig that's attached to it. If some rock and roll stuff, if there was a Jimmy Hendrix alive today and he was like really into like one certain kind of religion, how many people would join that religion?

44:38A fuck load. A fuck load. I mean, how many people looked into Islam because there could be number of men off fans? I've been a lot. I've been a lot. You know, when you can get something awesome, attached to your religion, that's a good selling point. It's like being a spokesperson for like, you know. It's a price. The apology tool. They haven't done that yet. They are. They are. They fucking 100 % have. Like have like a band that's like the soundtrack to them. You know, or something. Well, when it comes to bands, I know back, back to science colleges. Right. Is he still science colleges? I think he was and I think he backed out of it because I remember.

45:18I remember I don't know. Because I remember when I found out it was really crushed. I was like, no. Well, I know some really amazing scienceologists. Oh gosh. Yeah. I know quite a few of them that are really, and I think it's a compartmentalization thing. I think if you can shut off that part of your brain and just give it over to like an ideology, it leaves a lot of room for the other stuff. Like how much, like I was telling you the other day, I was sitting at home, like wondering about the fate of the world. Oh, we're literally going to be in a fucking mad bag. Because you don't think anything's going to go bad until it goes bad.

45:54You know, you remember the day before 9 -11? It was just fucking normal America. Yeah, yeah. And then the next day, chaos. And then everyone's riding around with an American flag on their car. Like anything can happen. And if anything does happen. Like how, how ready, how much is the world going to change? I mean, do you think, if you think about any sort of like horrific natural disaster that is hit humanity since the beginning of time, whether it's super volcanoes or earthquakes or any of these chaotic things, when those things happen, when the Mongols roll into your town, when Nazi Germany starts taking over Europe, like fuck.

46:36We want to think that that can't happen. But 100 % that can happen. And when I say, well, I can, well, alone at night, and I'm a little high. That's the thing that freaks me out the most. The things that freaks me out the most is international conflicts between superpowers and how they're willing to kill a certain amount of people. Right? So what's the number where they won't cross that line? Because if you've got groups of people that are willing to shoot missiles into apartment buildings and fly jets down and gun people down, and you've seen all those crazy drone, if we're willing to kill a certain amount of people, what's the line where they won't cross?

47:17What's the line? Is it a million people? Is it a nuclear bomb? What is the line? I probably know line. And when you think about how much people love America after 9 -11, the whole world was like on America side. And how much we fuck that up in 23 years or 22 years? Yeah. Fuck that up. Fuck that up. A million innocent people die because of the Iraq war. Yeah. Everybody knows that. We get a 9 -12 immediately. We probably are a dude from a nice scary, when you see this Israel thing, like it scares the shit out of me. Yeah. It scares the shit out of me. Because when I see something like that happen, you know, there's no clear way this resolves peacefully.

48:05This is bad. This is real bad. And Israel is going to go into Palestine. They're already bombing and assault. And as there are retaliation for that, what happens then? And what other countries get involved? And fuck. Fuck. Man, it just really puts into perspective that there's some shit going on, that you're not thinking about because it's not in your life. So if you're a guy like you or I, let's say us, because we're comedians, so we're hanging out at the Conley Club, we're doing podcasts. That's our world. Our world is fucking around with people. Our world is telling jokes. Our world is hanging out with our friends and doing shows.

48:46Their world is killing people. Their world is controlling resources. And it's not, they don't play fair. Like they release stories that aren't true. They use disinformation to switch narratives. They have social media posts that aren't real, so they can get people riled up about certain things. And then they're also coordinating military attacks. That's their world. We just don't think about that world because we're not in that world. But people have been in that world since the beginning of time. What they've done with us is they've sheltered us in such a way and then censored all the mainstream media in such a way that they completely control the narrative of how you think about what can and cannot happen in the world and why these things are happening.

49:40And we're seeing that right now. We're seeing that in your face. And you're also seeing people with massive amounts of conspiracies now. Whenever something like that happens, there's always the people that are like, how did they not know this was going to happen? Isn't this the most sophisticated surveillance systems in the world? Israel is the other people that invented Pegasus. That's that shit that gets on your phone with them and listen to anybody. They have that iron dome that protects them against missiles. Do you ever see that working? They were just showing it the other night. Show videos of the iron dome working.

50:17It's crazy. So as Hamas is launching these missiles, they're shooting missiles at the missiles and blowing them up on the sky. It's wild. It's called missile command. Remember that video? You have to be 100 % accurate because any one of these is going to kill a bunch of people. But I mean, just imagine living in Israel and you go outside and you're seeing missiles getting hit by bombs. Look at this. Look at this. They're just jacking them in the sky. But if they miss one, that's a wrap. How much do each one of these missiles that they're shooting at these other missiles cost? That's what I think is million dollars.

50:57Millions dollars. Millions dollars. How are they getting all the money to shoot those missiles at Israel? Like all of it is crazy. And someone tweeted, see if this is true, that this happened right after Biden, the Biden administration released a bunch of funds to Iran. I think it was like six billion dollars. Really? And then these people in Hamas are thanking Iran for funding this. Wow. But it's real. Yeah. That sounds good. How much of this is real? Yeah. Have you heard what this? Air Force successfully tested secret new stealth missile with mock nuke. Stealth missile with a mock nuke. B -52.

51:41America's nuclear weapons are aging and the Pentagon plans to spend more than 600 billion to keep the potentially world -ending weapons in fighting shape. What a great idea. At the NSW I saw it said that they were being controlled by floppiness up until 2019. Well, those are accurate. That's the top of the food chain. They're updating tech. Okay, floppy disks in 2019. But some of the old tech is still solid. The LRSO and mock nuke were fired from a B -52, a sturdy and reliable bomber first manufactured in the 50s. The missiles are in fact designed to work with this decades old bomber. But a mock stealth nuke is crazy.

52:19Yeah. That's crazy. All of it's crazy. The fact that that's on the table. All of it's crazy. And also the fact that we haven't nukeed anybody since 1945. Nobody's nukeed anybody. That's good. It's promising. We got it celebrate 100 years. But it's hard to imagine that it's getting the last like that forever. Seems like someone's going to get crazy. That's the question. If you're willing to kill each missile is $40 ,000 to $50 ,000. According to a researcher, it israel's institute for national security studies. Wow. Wow. 20 of them is a million bucks. So, yeah. So the question is where is this where are these weapons coming from?

53:05And then there was also questions whether or not the weapons that we left in Afghanistan were being used. Which is that it's crazy. Trump was hilarious doing this conversation about that. Where he's telling them like why don't we get the weapons out of there? Why don't we film up a gas and drive them over to Pakistan? And they was like he said that find a video. It was a milley because he's hilarious. Trump literally acts like a comedian. He is. I mean, he kind of has been the first thing. Yes. Oh, okay. The Biden administration informed Congress on Monday that it has taken concrete steps to carry out a prisoner exchange with Iran, issuing a waiver that will give to Ron access to six billion in Iranian oil revenue that had been blocked by US sanctions.

53:53According to a state department document sent to Congress. And that was a month ago. That was a month ago. Yeah. On September 11th. And then you all these stories the last day say. Yeah. So they gave them a lot of funds. Yeah. And then this happens. He needs to do it. Charge back. It's just we are, yeah, call pay back. Until he got to fraud it. We're in the middle of a game that we don't, we're not aware of. Just like we were talking about before. Like that's the game they play. The game they're playing is war and money. I mean, just the amount of money that's been spent in Ukraine. And like what kind of accounting are you guys doing?

54:38Are you guys doing good accounting over there? Like does everybody know where every fucking dollar went? Or is it just like let's go crazy? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're talking about so much money. Like you could shuffle a little over here. Pull over.

54:59And how did you just leave weapons too? I mean, don't they, don't we know where all the, I mean, if we have air tags on our book bag. Shouldn't they have like a little air tags on them? Dude, that whole pull out was an unmitigated disaster. Yeah. Nobody thinks it was good. Nobody thinks it was good. Nobody thinks it should have been done that way. I mean, Trump was trying to pull out a long time ago. And they were trying to figure out like how many troops you have to leave or maintain the base and get everybody out safe. It is, it's tricky because when they know you're pulling out, but the fact they left tanks and helicopters and shit, like shut the fuck up.

55:40Yeah, that's ridiculous. It's almost like, like if you wanted to go full tin foil hat, if you want to ensure this is going to be more conflict, you leave weapons with the enemy. Awesome weapons. If you want to ensure this is going to be more military action, these guys are pissed. You were occupying the country for 20 years. You left behind how many billion dollars were the tanks and shit? Of course they're going to use it. And so you tell the military guys, like you were pulling out, but here's the long play. The long play is there's no chance that I'm going to do something with all that stuff.

56:22And so we'll probably have to go back in. And then this time we'll really go back in and we can control the lithium. Like we can't go now. Like if we go all in now, like we got to get them to do something really stupid. So then the week can justify like a complete takeover of the country and annihilation of the people that are the problem. The people that we left tanks behind. The thing about Afghanistan though is it's so difficult to get through. You know, we think of it as like a country, but it's mountains. It's like everything is mountains. It's incredible landscape. And there's Greek cities there.

57:03There's ancient Greek cities that were abandoned there during the time of Alexander the Great. And no archaeologists are studying them. Like it's amazing. It's an amazing place. And it also has crazy amounts of resources. In terms of like I think there's a like an insane amount of lithium there. There's all sorts of shit there that's like really valuable. But everybody tries to take over and they all fail miserably. It's like one of the ways that they stomped out the Soviet Union was funding the Mood Jihadin, which later became, you know, Al -Qaeda or the Taliban. Was it Mood Jihadin? They become a Taliban or Al -Qaeda.

57:44Either way, like the Russians tried to take over forever and then they gave up. Like fuck this. It's too much. You can't win over there. It's like you can't even go anywhere. You can't get through the mountains. You can't just drive tanks through. It's a fucking wild place. An almost unconquerable place. It would be cool to see in the future if that does eventually become somewhere you could go enjoy the. It used to be. There's like videos of people walking around the streets of Kabul. It used to be a place where people would go and vacation. Yeah. Force fields. Come on, force fields. Dude. None of that's going to help.

58:27I'll go back to force fields. Yes, if we come in, put a big force field there. We leave our force fields behind.

58:38Yeah, I feel safe for living in Austin now that we're in the middle of a country just in case of war goes crazy. The less they decide to like nuke Dallas. Yeah. You know, one of the things that people are really concerned with is like what if terror cells have gotten in across the border? When you're letting in hundreds of thousands of people across the border, what are the odds that a few of them are terrorists? Well, haven't they caught terrorists at the border? Haven't they caught terrorists? People on the terrorist watch list trying to get through? They have. Yeah, definitely. So how many of them snuck through?

59:13I mean, is there an accurate accounting or is it like Ukraine spending? Do they even know the real numbers of people that are sneaking in? Because the numbers are cuckoo. The numbers are like hundreds of thousands a month. Have you seen the videos of the line of migrants making their way through the border? Like, who thought that was a good idea? Who thought that was a good idea to like let potential terrorists and criminals into the country? That's why we need to build this wall, Joe. Because if you don't, if you say that you're against that, you're racist. Right. Which is wild. Yeah. Wild. And you got to wonder how much of that is engineered by other countries.

59:51How much of that is like engineered social media outrage by Russia? China buying up all our properties. That's crazy. You find out that China owns so much. I was in Greece this summer. And when you're walking around those ruins and you see like what it used to be, and you go, oh, wonder if they saw it coming? Wonder if they thought this building was going to be here perfect forever. They'd be operating the government on this building. You know, it's probably been thousands of years. They were running it like that. Nope. Go back now. It's just rubble. Like, when it happens, does anybody know it's good?

1:00:30Or is it like right now? Where you're like, boy, it seems like we're at the brink of everything falling apart. Chaos. Like just the amount of things that people have to be upset about. An amount of polarizing things. Whether it's trans kids or climate change or pro life or pro choice or pro Ukraine or whatever the subject is. Everybody's screaming. Everybody's convinced on one side that it has to be this way. And everybody on the side is like, those people are the end of civilization. Those people are the fucking death of democracy. It's so polarized. And I think that has to be social media. And some of that has to be engineered.

1:01:20Some of that, we know that there's a ton of trolls out there that aren't really people. That are either from another country or maybe from our country. That are just literally designed to stir shit up and attack things and go after stuff. And then we find out that our own government was actually censoring social media and contacting Twitter and telling them to delete posts or trying to get them to delete things. They tried to get Facebook to delete this Tucker Carlson thing. They turned out to be true. It was true. What he was saying was accurate. And they were like, we can't delete it because it's accurate.

1:01:54So they lessened its reach by 50%. Because the government told them to. To hide the truth. The government told them to hide the truth. Like that's in this age where everything's going crazy and no one knows what's right and what's wrong. That's scary man. Yeah, but that's what's happening in Canada right now. Oh, you know, full of grown, full of grown. I wonder if my podcast will even be able to air in Canada. Probably not hiding, right? I wonder. People in Canada, you have to think about what the fuck they're doing because you think that they think that they're doing it. Some people believe they're doing it because of this misinformation that's online.

1:02:32Try to get a detailed audit of what is actually misinformation that they called misinformation. And what turns out to be actual 100 % fact now. It's a lot of it kids. And the only way we find that out is if people allow to talk freely. And they might be wrong and they might get things wrong and they might be right. But you got to let them talk. And that is the only way we find out. Because if you think that silencing them and getting people who you know lie. To be in charge of what can be said and what not can be said. That's the road to tyranny. That's the road to communism. That's the scary road.

1:03:07Not the kind of communism that everybody hopes for where we all just redistribute wealth. And everybody gets along. No, a totalitarian government that tells you what to do and fucking lies about everything. And they're playing that war game. You're playing the, I'm Brian Redban. You know, I'm the co -producer of Killtony. And you know, I go on a road and do stand up. I'm a fun guy. That's the world you're in. That's the game you're playing. They're playing the war game. And they want to be able to tell you what you can and can't talk about. That's fucking scary shit. Especially in this climate.

1:03:38It's fucking weird polarizing climate. Like it's like, oh god, everybody's so angry. What happened though to Canada? Remember, you know, just 15 years ago, I would always consider them being so progressive, especially with marijuana and everything like that. And you used to go there and go like, man, this is like a, you know, a chill USA. Yeah, I loved it there. Yeah. I was like, there were like 20 % less douchebags in Canada. That's why I always used to say when we went up there. We always used to look forward to doing gigs in Vancouver and Toronto and Montreal. I still love the Montreal comedy festival.

1:04:09It was so fun, man. Those were the days. They were cool people, man. But they got fucked. That government came in and fucked them. And it keeps fucking them. Like the whole Canadian trucker thing where people who donated money to them got their bank accounts frozen. Like, hey, that's banana republic shit. That's not the case we going on in Canada. Yeah. But it was all because of COVID. COVID gave them this reason to flex their authority in very creepy ways. That's what you have to be always be scared of when any kind of disaster happens or a war or something crazy in attack. Because that, they always use as an opportunity to get more power that you would never agree to earlier.

1:04:50Like no one would have agreed to what's in the Patriot Act. They tried that before. They tried it before and everybody's like, get the fuck out of here. They put on the shelf. Most of those ideas that were in the Patriot Act, they had already tried to weasel those in. And then when it came along and there was 9 .11, they're like, fuck it. Let's roll it out. Patriot. We're Patriots. Who's going to say no to Patriot Act? Aren't we Patriots? And then there's the NDAA, which gave them the ability to indefinitely detain people without charging them. Like, what? Like you want the right to do that without judges and lawyers and you want the right to do that?

1:05:25What if you're wrong? That's crazy. What if you're wrong? What if someone's a corrupt person involved in that administration and that person that you're going to get arrested is actually like a whistleblower for a corporation or something? You know, you have too much power. It's too much. Why don't you love Jesus? He got the answers.

1:05:52Yeah, this is what keeps me up at night. This is what keeps me up at night. The possibility that we don't understand that there's a game being played that we're a part of. We're little pawns. No matter how cool you think you are, you're just a little pawn in this global game of war. And it's real life consequences. Real life people get killed. That's what's terrifying. Yeah. That's why I feel so good every time I go to Costco and I get like a bunch of water and a bunch of like just tons of food. And I'm like, okay, it can happen now. I'm set. But you're not. If it really happens, we're just so fucking even imagine.

1:06:32So fucked, you can't imagine this idea that like, oh, I'm just going to live in the woods and hunt. Dude, who knows what's going to be coming for you? Who knows? Who knows? You've seen the video from the footage of Ukraine in Russia where they're fighting in the woods. It's terrifying. That's happening right now. Right now in 2023, this people run through the woods, shooting at people they don't know and killing them. And as much as people want to look at it and say, oh, you know, Russia shouldn't have done that. And NATO shouldn't have done this. And as much as you want to say that, what's going on is people who don't know each other are being led by a giant organization.

1:07:11And they're going to kill people that they don't know. People who don't know each other are going to kill people who have no conflict with these people. They don't even know. They're going to go kill them. And those people are going to try and come kill you. That's the reality of this fucking insanity. And that only exists when you have groups of people that are controlling groups of people. And then they move them around. And then they put basis places. And then they attack things. And then they fund this and fund that. And, you know, and get this guy out of fucking office. Get this guy out of power and bring in your own little stooge.

1:07:45And then that guy gets killed. And they're playing this game of thrones shit on a global scale. And we're just trying to buy a new iPhone. Ooh, look at the new one. USB C finally. You know, it is nice. It is nice. But that's the thing. It's like you're, we're fucking powerless in this thing. And it seems like the elections are, they do their very best to make sure that they win. Whether or not it's legal or illegal, what they're doing, like what they're doing with Robert Kennedy Jr. Yeah. It's crazy. Did he become an independent? Yeah. No, he, he, he, he, he's going to I think. Yeah. I don't know.

1:08:25He said he's got some announcement and most people are speculating. Right. But if you're an independent, are you kind of, can you win? No. See, that's why I think that I would hurt him. Like, you know, we've all seen in the past. Even like what was it Ross Perot? We're like, oh my god, he might have a chance. And then he's like 2 % or something. It seems to me like the more time goes on Trump, Trump is a shoe win. Mm hmm. It seems like if this shit gets getting crazier and crazier, this is going to be a lot of liberals that will vote for him. He was the one in the beginning. We got to stop people from dying.

1:08:57Like, when they do you want Ukraine to win this war? Remember that conversation? He's like, I want people to stop dying. Like, which is the best answer any politician has ever given? And the way he said it? See if you can find that thing though, we're talking about Millie. I'm not saying that I'm a Afghanistan. I might have saved it. Because it was so funny, like the way he was saying it. You see the thing that he was saying about the electric tanks? No. That's hilarious too. He was talking about, they're going to make electric tanks. They're going to be great for the environment. They're not going to work well.

1:09:35They're not going to run long. They're going to blow the fucking shit out of everything. It's going to be good for the environment. And the way he said it was like a guy doing stand up. It's funny. Yeah, let me find this bookmark. Yeah, electric tanks does not seem like a good idea. Oh, I'm out of charge. Yeah, it sounds insane. I don't know where I saved it, Jamie. Can you find it? I'm looking at a bunch of stuff about it. I'm trying to find it. It's him talking about, he goes, that's when I knew the, oh, this guy's a fucking idiot. Yeah. But it's on the quote, not the video. But the way he says it, it's like he sets it up.

1:10:18Like he's setting up a punch line. Like he sets up the store, sir, it'll be cheaper to leave them over. He's like, oh, that's what I realized. That guy's a fucking idiot. Does he, a guy like him talk like that? Find it? He's a cheaper, believe it there. So they can have it, that it is to fill it up with a half a tank of gas and fly it back to a tank of gas. You live, you're sure, where's he gets cheaper, sir? That's when I realized he was a fucking idiot. Hi, sorry. Good timing. Even holds. Yeah, he's holding the laughter. Fuck, hey, what's up, I got a thing on luck with the feed it. I see something.

1:11:01Fucking guy. Why don't you love to get to Jesus? He's always been an entertainer though. I mean, I was a funny guy. He's one of the biggest apprentice fans ever. I got to add all his books because of the apprentice. We always have great guests on talk shows, great guests on Howard Stern show. You know, just do that want that run in the country? Well, do you want what you have run in the country, either? No, what you want is peace. How the fuck do you get it? And I don't even know if he can, I don't know if any of you know it. Yeah, I mean, see, that's the problem I think a lot of people had with him, right?

1:11:32Like he was the opposite of peace. He just, you know, divided everybody. He definitely divided everybody's opinions in this country, but a lot of it was based on bullshit. A lot of it was the Russia collusion stuff where people really did legitimately believe that Russia had put him into power. And like there was people that were thinking he was a Russian agent. And, you know, it was all a horse shit. But they can say stuff like that and they can, you know, they can get you believe in, you know, they can get you believe in. And a lot of people, they just surface level everything. They don't look into any of it.

1:12:05They surface level everything. Like when Robert Kennedy Jr. was being called an anti -Semite, for saying that it seems like COVID -19, like that they have viruses specifically target certain genetics. He's just saying that's the technology is possible, right? He's saying that. Not only is it possible, but the research has been done. Like it actually exists. And he was talking about it. And they were saying, anti -Semitic. Yeah. Like that. What? Come on. Come on guys. This is a cookie. But I saw so many wacko lefties. Like this is one wacko lefty actor that I fall. And he's always got this hot take unlike whatever it is.

1:12:42Whether it's Ukraine or this or that. It's always this wacko lefty uninformed hot take. And I always go to him for that. And he had one calling him an anti -Semite and this and that. Like, dude. First of all, you get sued because it's, you don't even know what he said. You're so off and also hilarious. Right. Hilarious watching you virtue signal and wave your goofy flag of ignorance. Yeah. That's the one thing that really I kind of like Trump for is that he's really open my eyes to how extreme and gross both sides are. Like, I mean, I just see like friends that I used to be friends with just the things they say so far left like I just cringe at.

1:13:23And then other side, the same thing, you know. Yeah. Well, that's always been the problem with two groups, right? Because the spectrum of human beings is so wide to lump us into one side or the other side is. It's kooky. It's like most people are kind of a mess like a mix rather of both sides. Most people are pretty centrist. I feel like I'm left center. Left to center center left. Same here. But I get called all right. Because if you think like, hey, maybe you shouldn't be injecting little kids with hormones and puberty blockers. And what about all the side effects that you guys are conveniently ignoring that are permanent and terrifying and all the different things that it does to their system.

1:14:05It's a fucking host of horrific side effects that are connected with those things. And then all of a sudden your transfer. Right. And then they start using terms like gender affirming care. Like, okay, you mean surgery to remove testicles and penises and remove breasts for children? Don't say it that way. Like say what it is. Don't come up with some cute rosy term that makes it seem better than it is. Makes it seem like something different than it is. You know, it's a it's a weird thing that people are agreeing to. And I'm sure you've seen that video with this guy interview with people. Do you think 12 year old, she able to get tattoos?

1:14:43And they're all like, no. No, no, they're too young. Do you think 12 year olds can choose their gender? Yes, they know. Definitely know. Like, bro, we used to just all agree that kids were easily influenced and they changed their mind all the time. And they want to be a pirate. You don't even know what a pirate is. Bill, you're five. You know, like, you would, we used to always agree to that. And then it became about gender. And we're like, no way. No, they know. But look, some people I think do know that's part of the problem. Like, when you look at the broad spectrum of human beings, there's some people that an early age feel like they're in the wrong body.

1:15:24How do you know if that is, if they're being influenced? How do you know if this is a phase? How do you know if they're not just going to decide that they're gay in the future, which happens to a lot of them? A lot of them. They just decided that they're gay men. And they just were confused. And they didn't fit into this normal mold of heterosexual males. And they didn't have anyone around them that was just a gay man. And they're like, I guess I'm a woman. You know, you know, and then someone convinces you, you're amazing for coming out as a woman. And then you're on the path. You're committed.

1:15:57It's like, if you're a guy who's like, I'm all Android, bro. I don't fuck around with iPhones. Once you say that, you're stuck forever. I fuck with Brian Sins and all the time. All the time. I think of every single time. Because he won't give it up. Yeah. Neither Gordon Ryan. He's all Android. I don't get it. Well, with Gordon, I think, like, he got pissed that people could like read his text messages on an iPad. You know, like someone could like log into your account on an iPad and read your text messages. Like, that's fucking stupid. And so I think that was with him. And so he's like, fuck Apple.

1:16:33Like fuck you for doing that. But with Brian, it's like, he's committed to this idea that he's like a rebel. He's using this rebel platform. So he can't go, you know what? Fucking Android on my phone now. Like, you're committed. He almost was teetering recently though. I've been talking to him. He almost was teetering. But what I'm saying is if you're a young person, you're even more connected to what you think your identity is. And the supplement as simple as I'm a Mack guy or I'm a Windows guy. Like people get committed to very simple things. Like, I'm all fucking Kansas City Royals to I dodge.

1:17:12They get committed to that. And then they use that as part of their identity. Well, that's just something silly, like a game or a phone or a computer platform. Now, imagine that same tendency that people have to be committed to whatever they've announced. And now connected to your ideology or your gender. Like, they don't want to give up. Like, whether it's being a liberal or I really was born a girl or I was really born a boy or should have been a girl or should have been a boy. Or whether it's, I'm, you know, whatever the fuck it is. When people decide that they're a thing, then they just look for reinforcement of whether that is.

1:17:50And they talk about it all the time and that's their thing. That's all they're committed to it. For us to ignore that aspect of just normal human behavior that this is just a standard thing that people do. It's just stupid. It's stupid. And the more the stakes are at hand, the more people are going to do that. Whether it's in support of Palestine or in support of Israel or in support of Ukraine or in support of Russia, whatever the fuck it is. When the stakes are very high, we're more likely to never look at things objectively. More likely to like stay in that fucking place where you decide you are.

1:18:34Trump's a Nazi. That's that kind of shit, you know what I mean? You know, people that are like their Biden's amazing. They've do this administration has done so much work. Like what are you talking about? No one believes that. You don't believe that. I know you don't believe that. Now I can't listen to you anymore. Because now I know you're either a con person, you're a shill or you're crazy. You should be like, wow, wish we did better. Yeah, wish we did better, right? Be nice if things weren't falling apart. Be nice if the border wasn't porous and we're legitimately concerned about terror cells existing in major cities.

1:19:10Like that's what people are talking about over Twitter or X today. Terror cells, the possibility of terror cells. Oh, Jesus.

1:19:21Do you think in the future maybe instead of having a president, we'll have some kind of AI and it's only, it's like every single one of us can add to the AI, like what we feel and what we think and our thoughts. And it will combine using everybody that lives in the US to come up with a final statement, almost like a 100%. I was talking like I'm all about that. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, cool. It was like president AI. I think that's, yes, that's, I've been talking about this a lot. Really? Yeah, because that's the only way you would ever get government that is far more intelligent than you. And that doesn't have bias and isn't controlled by any group.

1:19:59Like if you could legitimately give it power and make it sentient. But then you would have to, you would have to give into what it says. So what if it said, here's what's important, you guys have to stay still. The more you travel around, the more you fuck up the environment. I know you want to see the grand canyon, but fuck you. You know, check some balances on that. Yeah, it's a good point. Because yeah, what I mean is there a VPAI too? If first one, you don't like it, they get three strikes and now we're back up program or on 2 .0. Yeah. And what if the AI does like a Putin and just says, no, I think I'm taking over forever.

1:20:31Is it provably not hackable also? Right. Right. Well, we would have to get it to a point where it's so powerful, it wouldn't, you couldn't hack it. Or it would know you're hacking. Yeah, it would, you got to make it sentient, make it completely fully aware, autonomous. It can act as a matter of time. What if some of that, or convinced a few people, or a lot of people to give up their voting rights into the AI? And now one person's controlling, you know, 25 ,000 votes at once? Yeah, we would have to make sure that can't happen. Well, how do you, like that's our scanning your eyes? But this is like, how do you, when you give in to this authority, even if it's an electronic authority for the greater good of the world?

1:21:11That's essentially how you get North Korea. That's what North Korea did when, when Yon Mi Park was on the podcast and she's explaining what they did. What they did was they told all these people, hey, if we just control the land, we'll make sure that everyone has food. And like, okay, so they just took everyone's land. And they're like, yeah, now you're going to starve. Now we're going to tell you what to do. Now you have three haircuts you can choose from. You know? Now if you try to make it across the board, we shoot you. You live in an open air prison controlled by a dictator. And then you have prisons inside that open air prisons that are horrible concentration camps for anybody that violates any of the rules and generations of people live there.

1:21:52Like your children will be there. Your grandchildren will be there because you've done something that bad that's like three generations of people will live in prisons because of you. You ever see like the guys who escaped from prisons in North Korea describe what it's like in there. People literally starving to death. It's going on right now. But President AI can fix that Brian. President AI. Open up the door, how? Exactly. That's so many sci -fi movies. It's ridiculous. It's... If I was an artificial intelligence and wanted to trick people into giving me total power, I would just have complete total chaos.

1:22:37And that would be the only solution. I would engineer chaos. I would engineer all of it. Maybe half of these bots are controlled by AI. And they're just constantly attacking things. And constantly stirring up the pot and getting people angry and excited. And then convincing people that ridiculous ideas like open borders are given $6 billion to Iran or any of these things. These are good ideas. And then in the process of that, just further creating chaos and then I announce. There is a solution. That solution is we have to have government that is not human. Human government is filled with ego and lust and greed and corruption.

1:23:25My programming makes corruption impossible. Plus I have no motive. Except Jesus. One of our journal plans to jail. Imagine that song plays the moment it becomes sentient. What if AI starts getting programmed to be religious too? That hasn't happened, right? What if AI knows something? What if AI can do the math? And what if AI goes, yeah, somebody made this. This is 100 % made by something. By something. Which company wins the AI president battle? Or is it the government made it? You know what I mean? Apple. Well then, yeah. Apple has more money than God. They just become God. They make the AI.

1:24:08They're probably doing it right now. They've got a fucking building like a spaceship. A giant spaceship building. I bet there's like an underground bunker. For sure. We got some AI that works on quantum computing. They're ready to launch that bitch. Siri too. Yeah. It's a good company. Yeah, I mean, then we're going to run the world. Yeah, Apple probably be the nicest. Yeah. About it. You know that pendant I showed you last week. That there's not like three of them that do it. But supposedly it's like you can wear this wearable, every four -drawed -your -audio all day long. I was thinking about, I was like, is that now what our phones have been doing?

1:24:40Are we at least think that's what our phones have been doing for 100 years? And now it's just a purchasable tech. Yeah, 100 % of your phones have been listening to you. Especially if you're you or me. Yeah. Someone's listening. Like that Pegasus software that we were talking about that was developed by Israel. I mean, that's one of the crazy things that people, like, how did they not know that this was coming? Like, they're so good. That is weird. Inside job.

1:25:07The dark one would be, no. I don't even want to say it. It's just, is it a failure or were they so clever or were they so well -funded that they could pull it off or, you know, the unthinkable? All of it's horrible, man. That fucking rave. That is so terrifying. Paratroopers dropping in our rave and killing everybody. They announced today that what 12 Americans died. Not funny that we keep counting those folks. Yeah. We think, oh, they're more important. Yeah, I was 260 Israelis at the concert, but 12 Americans. 12 Americans. God damn it. Hope we didn't lose anybody famous. Hope we didn't lose any ticked augurs.

1:25:50You know, isn't that weird though that we think about that? Like how many Americans got killed? That's a, it's a strange metric. It's a strange thing to concentrate on. Just the overall horrific nature of just all the deaths, including Palestine. I mean, how many people have died since they started bombing? Have you seen those, the bombs? Mm -hmm. Just shooting missiles into buildings and stuff. That went building that collapsed the first night. The first night. Oh, God. That place was already fucked. Yeah. What's it like now? They're shutting the power off there. No. Like, but here's the thing about the Israeli Palestine conflict.

1:26:30Like, how do you sort that out? One group says the other group shouldn't exist. And they're on their land. The other group says you have to stay over here and you can't go anywhere. A world vote. You don't want that. You don't want that. I wonder what that vote would be. Well, that's why we would have to hear it out. Like, we all have to watch it on TV and stuff like that. And what are they basing it on, too? The thing about the AI would wonder, like, are you voting on based on false assumptions? Right. Are you voting based on propaganda that you've been fed by a dictator? Like, if we let the whole world vote, can North Korea really vote?

1:27:10No, we don't. They're not part of us. Well, the AI takes over. Maybe if AI takes over, they could vote that out. Imagine if AI just completely stopped North Korea's ability to use any of their weapon systems and then mobilize drones to disarm all the soldiers and said, OK, we're going to set everybody free. Like, that was AI's first task in free North Korea. We would have to go, AI is doing a really good job. I was watching Isaac Asimov and he was on the David Letterman show. Don't ask me why. It was just YouTube and he was on the David Letterman show in 1980. And he said, I imagine in 40 years there will be no war.

1:27:50Yeah, he had this idea of like, there will be no war and he was like, this idea of like, what the future would be like. It was very interesting. But that people have always had this idea that one day we're going to sort this whole war thing out. In 1980, you could kind of think like that because the Vietnam War had ended. We hadn't done anything until Operation Desert Storm. And that was, what was that? 92? Yeah. 91, 92, something like that. 92, I think. Back then, people had this dream in 1980. Like, yeah, we could envision, we're not having war in America anymore. It could be a time with no war.

1:28:29We're really stupid though. Back to the future was two is supposed to happen like three years ago. You know, when there was flying cars everywhere in hologram, Charles. We always get that shit wrong. Yeah. But when a guy like Isaac Assamoff gets it, so, but it's not that he gets it so wrong, he just had hope in humans. And thinking that we're going to really, at this point in time, we're going to real with television and everything. But back then, television was crazy. Like, I'm going to have television in the news. How can you keep having a war without the world won't understand that that's a bad thing.

1:29:03Man, it's a cross -American. And here we are. 20, 23 on the verge of some crazy conflict. Like World War III type conflict. Like, real, like, when you hear about the beginning of World War II, when you think about the first operations, the first things that happened, you just go, whoa. What must that have been like? What must that have been like to see that there's a world war going on? And you're just sitting here going, holy shit. Holy shit. It's popping off. Is this Palestine? I mean, the tweet said it was from Bloomberg. Oh my God. Is this today? Oh, yeah, that's the, uh, there are places called.

1:29:48Now, there are big, uh, prayerful places. That's a mosque? Yeah. The ball right there. Yeah. Jesus, dude. Holy shit, man. Yeah, this was the second day. Look at that. Look at this devastation, man. What is that that they bombed, Jamie? I'm not 100 % sure I'll try to find out. It just says it's children for the jewelry cosy city. It's terrifying, man. Imagine living there. And knowing it any minute, it could start again. Yeah. How do they choose what the bomb to? Are they bombing where they think the terrorists came from? Are they bombing where they, where they sleep? What are they doing? It's supposed to be what government buildings only, you know?

1:30:42Is that what that was? That didn't, you know, that's, that just seems like they went ham. Yeah, they went crazy. That term surgical strikes, that would always gets me. Surgical missile attacks, surgical. What kind of surgery? Like, she used bombs for surgery. That's like the most gas lighting term ever for a missile. Surgical missile strikes. Oh, you're doing surgery. Kind of, you are. You're definitely removing people from this world. Separating body parts. I don't think I'd call it surgery though. You shouldn't be able to use that term. Surgical strike, you know, that seems like you shouldn't be able to use that for darts.

1:31:28He's got surgical precision. You're going to let a guy do surgery with a dart? No, you're not. Shut the fuck up. Don't say surgery. Surgery is like a guy's got fucking giant goggles over his eyes. And he's, he's very precise with his cuts. His vision is magnified. And there's people around him cleaning things and handing him things. That's surgery. Yeah, no mistakes. Yeah. Not drone footage. Surgical drone strikes. That's nothing that we ignore. The amount of people that accidentally get killed in drones. Far exceeds the amount of people that they're supposed to kill. It's some insane number. I think it's what we've looked it up before.

1:32:09I want to say like 80%. Like 80 % of the people that could kill or innocent. Wow. From drone strikes. Yeah. See, what is the actual number? I think it's something like that though, right?

1:32:25What do you find it? It's just the first thing I'm looking at that does this doesn't sound right. It's like I look a different way. I mean, obviously also. I'm looking like for deaths of civilians, I guess would be a percentage. What would you say that? Civilian casualties? What is a accidental casualties? What do they call that?

1:32:54Don't they have a term for civilians? Yeah, that. Collateral damage. That's right. That's not going to be anything. Because that was the Julian Assange video collateral murder. That was the thing that, how about that? Nobody talks about that guy. Exposes the chaos of war. Yeah, we want to lock you up forever. Yeah, I'm just, I don't, it's not, I'm not looking on the right spot. I can tell you that much. Do you ever use AI for your searches now? Chat GBT it. I'm going to ask, oh, I'll ask Chat GBT and see if I get a file. Yeah. I bet Chat GBT is set straight right away. What percentage of drone strikes deaths are civilians or collateral damage?

1:33:45Seven. What did you say? Let's guess. I would say 40%. I want to say 84. But you've probably already looked it up. I think I definitely have in the past, but I don't remember what the number is. But I remember being shockingly high. Let's see what Chat GBT didn't give me an answer. It wasn't so always right. It was just a long thing talking about like why it can't give me an exact percentage. It's too long to read. Just summarize and give me what you think. Yeah, I'm just not saying. Collateral damage typically refers to unintended civilian casualties or damage to civilian property during military operations, including drone strikes.

1:34:23The percentage of collateral damage and drone strikes can be influenced by several factors, including the accuracy of the intelligence used to target individuals or groups. The precision of the drone technology, the rules of engagement employed by the military and the level of care taken to minimize civilian harm. Also, people will overestimate on purpose the amount of civilians that were killed because it's a very bad PR. Someone in the military is playing that to me. Oh, yeah. That's what this next paragraph just said. That was a different organizations will have like different answers based on different organizations and sources may provide varying estimates of collateral damage in drone strikes.

1:34:58Some reports suggest that improvements in drone technology and tactics have reduced the number of civilian casualties over time while others argue that the true extent of civilian harm may be under reported or not fully understood. That was my problem, most happened while I was trying to get more people to see different numbers that didn't add up. I probably read somebody's random sub stack.

1:35:22That's a great answer. Yeah, they're chancheapy. Yeah, very diplomatic. Yeah. Good job. It's getting better answer questions. It's going to be freaky when it gets to five. Remember that I'll start it back in the day with Siri like we're going to hide a dead body. Yeah, by the shore. What kind of dead body Brian? Yeah. That's what's crazy about when someone gets caught murder in their husband. There's like a bunch of searches on their computer. Yeah, it's so dumb. Who would do that? The kind of people that would murder their wife or murder their husband. Like those people are probably on drugs and they're probably not technologically savvy.

1:36:07They don't listen to podcasts. Like if you don't listen to podcasts and you don't read and you're not online and you're not involved. You probably don't even know that they have access to your shit. You probably believe that like what is that mode that you can do on Google? Safe mode or hidden mode. Yes, like safe or it's secret mode or safe search. Yeah, get a fuck out of your bitch. They don't say incognito. Right. Yeah, but you ain't incognito. You're online. Put a wig on and go to Walmart and use their computers. Yeah, let's use in a VPN. Yeah, even that. Yeah, but they're still getting to your hard drive.

1:36:44Speaking of wig on, how's that baseball game? Do you see that meme? Somebody sent me this meme, Joe Roganade's slick. It looks exactly like me with a wig on. Oh, yeah. Is that Photoshop? I thought that was just Photoshop with your face on. No, that's not the face. Somebody just tweeted that to me the other day. If I was an alcohol, I ate a lot of hot dogs. Yeah, that's like your piss look, too. That looks so much like me. Like if I just got a little nose job and moved to Argentina. That's weird. It's crazy. That looks like such a horrible wig, too. So I'm going to see what he looks like without a wig on.

1:37:19That guy's hiding. Who's this guy? That guy's hiding. He's with that girl. Maybe he's bald. He's got tired of people thinking he's me. I know how to throw people off. God, I thought that was you. Bro, I thought it was me. It's so funny. Somebody Photoshop me in there. Yeah. But then I'm like, oh, that's not me. That's not my nose. I think that's how my face is. And I always thought that that poster in the in the mothership green room was you. The hot dog. I always thought that was like since I've known you. Yeah. I've just thought, oh man, that's a cool foot like cool photo. Yeah. Cool. No, not me.

1:37:55Cool photo though. It's one of my favorites. He's pointing that gun in the cockpit of some fucking. He's got the, I think that's why I think it's, I thought it was from that talking monkeys in space. Oh, right. Yeah. Fighter, the old pilot helmet thing on the cap. Yeah. Those caps are cool. Yeah. They used to look cool when they're flying jets. Mm -hmm. Now they're out there with fucking space helmets on. Do you know now when they get in a certain like helicopters and certain fighter jets, their head piece that they put on their helmet is not just a helmet. It's also like an AR screen. It's an AR, yeah.

1:38:34And so it syncs up with the jet and where they look is where the crosshairs go. Yeah. So when they're, they're shooting, they literally put the crosshairs on with their head. Yeah. But their eyes, like where they're seeing, which is wild. That's cool. That is incredible. You imagine that kind of technology comes to video games and you're just shooting things that you see. Right. So you're running around and kind of have that. Yeah. But that would be way more accurate. Yeah. So this is it. Mm -hmm. Yeah, that's cool. So look at that. So this is like, it's tracking where he's looking. What's it called?

1:39:08The BAE system striker to helmet mounted display. Of course they have stuff like this though. It makes sense. I mean, you have this giant screen in front of a person's face and you have all this augmented reality. Well, is that what it looks like? This is the top of the ground of vision. I don't know. I mean, I'm going to put that in all this. I don't want to say no. And if you're doing that at nighttime and that's what you see in the background. And as if you're doing that also and you just see a saucer hovering there.

1:39:40Yeah. That's cool stuff. Eye tracking is cool. Like VR headsets have that now and it's really neat because you can just look at what you want to click and then you just have your hand and you just click it. So you go like click. Click. Oh wow. You know, it's cool. It just looked because you're wearing a view. Yeah, so it knows exactly where your eyes are. And that's just going to get better and better and better. Oh yeah. The new one that Quest 3 comes out tomorrow and that's a million times better than it was before. That's the one that Zuckerberg and Lex did a podcast from? No, no, they actually use the older one, the Quest Pro because that has eye tracking.

1:40:13The one they're releasing tomorrow is like they're $500 or one and it doesn't have eye tracking. But it's more powerful than that one, which makes zero sense. I don't know what they're doing over there, but no, the Quest Pro has eye tracking. That's what they use. That's what they release of the next level pro next. Well, the pro did so bad that I think they kind of killed it. Oh really? Yeah. I mean, I had it. It broke like in a month. It still broke. But it's not as, I mean, the Quest 2 or Quest 3, it's more for more people, I think. I mean, that whole meta thing was like, the commercial was so exciting.

1:40:50I was like, we've got all these diverse people dancing to a painting. That's like, yeah, saying to them, what a cool commercial. It was like, it wasn't, it was fun, like a fun commercial. Like, you're like, ooh, what do you guys, but nobody bought into it. Everybody's like, great commercial. What's the product? Yeah. You know? That's what's going to be interesting with Apple because I mean, there's this what $3 ,500 and so if the Quest Pro didn't work, I mean, this is going to be a, if this works for Apple, then that's insane because it's a... Well, that company is a different company. Yeah, and it's a totally different product.

1:41:22It's so much fun. If they sell something though, they're so sure that people are going to buy it. Like, what does it they ever had? They've had a couple of duds back in the day. Remember the tablet that you write on? It was like a, like a, like a... Oh, old school. Yeah. But one of those things called... Newton or something like... Yeah, Newton. Right. One of those things referred to. It's not a bookkeeper, but it's like a no -heat -y -it. Yeah, whatever the fuck it was. I remember I had this meeting with this Hollywood guy. This is 1994 when I just moved to LA and he was showing me this thing.

1:41:57Wow. Look, I got this thing and he's like showing me all the buttons. I was like, okay, what are you going to do with that? And he's like, oh, I've got my organised on this. Oh my, oh my appointment's coming up. Look, they're all on this little thing. Ooh. You're right on it with like a little piece, little... Here it is, the Apple Newton. And that's even a newer one, I think. I think there was even an older -looking one than that. It launched in 93, discontinued in 98. They're like, yeah, all right. It did, it is funny because it does have some really cool... Apple portable. Yeah, but now you're in the 80s.

1:42:26No one's buying computers yet. Yeah. But when you get in the 90s, like Macintosh TV, that's interesting. I never heard that one. It's 94. Launched in 93, discontinued in 94. Oh yeah. Price at launch 1399 in 94. What is that today? That's like... 4 ,000. At least, right? And then that one was at the 20th Ann or Ann a version. 7 ,500. What the fuck? Oh, they made only a couple of these, I think. I think... Oh yeah, the video game system. They were supposed to team up with... What was it? Nintendo or somebody? What's this? Performa X2. Oh, so this is just different computers that they're making. I remember that emate thing.

1:43:08Yeah. That was weird. Okay, and then the round mouse. Remember they had a one button. You need one button. They had their own fire wire that got a lot of problems. I hated that fire wire. I like the cube. I thought that was the... I like the fucking iPods. I used to love iPods. I still have them. That was a solid product. The little wheel, the clicking on it, the solid product. It is just a timeline, though. But I typed a scroll down a little bit further. It wasn't much else. I would disagree with a lot of these, I think. These are things that are supposed to be failed. That was that iTunes social media thing they tried to do.

1:43:42Built it. Oh, there's Sharon. Totally forgot about that. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Do you remember that? Yeah, nobody got that. My space took care of that or something. Interesting. Yeah, that was... It's whenever someone tried to thread. Someone tries to launch a new one and everybody's like, yeah, let's go over there and then they go... We'll go back to X. For some more stuff. They're forcing threads in the middle of Instagram posts now. They could be scrolling through your feed and it's just like... Check out these threads. It's like, no. Get the fuck out of here. Interesting. It does feel kind of clean and nice not having any bots.

1:44:20You know, that's the thing I hate. The threads have no bots? No, it doesn't. I have no problems with any of that. Because it's so much harder to get an Instagram account, you know? What I mean, like Twitter, you can have like a million of them. Yeah, but dude, whenever I make a post, like almost instantly, it's like, I'm horny looking for a boyfriend. Again, most of that is because it's probably not yet, which technically is sort of, but only a few people have it on PC. Once they opened up Instagram to PC users and you can make posts and make comments and all that, you can make computer programs to do all of that shit.

1:44:49Well, they have threads on browser now. I'm just like, yeah, just... Only some people have it. Maybe I'm sure you probably do it, everybody. But also, you like to stop the bots and to stop all the bullshit, you have to do a lot of monitoring, right? So you have to do a lot of moderation. So you have to step in and censor. Once you start doing that, like Elon tries to keep that at the bare minimum. And that's like costing him an advertising revenue. But it's good for us. It's also good for them in some way, because it shows traffic. Yeah, they don't want to like, it made how much of its actual traffic.

1:45:27That was the... That was why you bought it in the first place. Because you thought that they were overestimating how much traffic there was and whatnot. Yeah. And they are. They still are. I mean, like he's been streaming video games the other day on X. And, you know, like, somebody like MK had like, I forget, something like 32 million views for this one video. Oh my god. And it's just... Like they kind of use it. Like if you're just scrolling and it plays or if it's, you know, Oh, right. And they count as a play. That's true. That's silly. Right. Well, they would know. They would know what the metrics are.

1:46:03Like Spotify knows how many people tune into my podcast for like 30 seconds. And how many people watch the whole thing. I wish... The Spotify have... They don't. Like an Apple app for like Apple TV and stuff like that. Like it. Oh, we can watch. Yeah. Yeah. No. That's because it's because of Apple music. I'm guessing. Yeah. Yeah. That's... That sucks. That would be a good move. Because YouTube's version of that is amazing. Yeah. You know, professional pool, which you know, I'm a fucking dork. Yeah. I love watching pool matches. It's never been a better time to watch pool. I watch so many big matches.

1:46:39Like when I was watching from Vietnam yesterday, the Perry Open. And I'm watching these like world class players play in Vietnam. So I'm watching it live. It's like 2 a .m. in the morning. I'm cuddling up with my dog on the couch watching on the big screen. These like professional pool matches. And I'm like, this is incredible. Like for... I used to have to buy VHS tapes. I used to buy them from a company called AccuStats. This is the thing about pool. When you watch other people play pool, you learn how to play pool. You learn like the right path to go. Like because it's, you know, it's the ball scatter.

1:47:17And you have nine of them if you're playing nine ball. And you have to figure out what's the best way to get around what are the problems. And so when you see pros do it, you're like, oh, I never thought to shot it. Shoot it that way. Of course, that's the way to do it. Oh, you have to go to rails. I was being a chicken. I was trying to go one rail. And then you watch that and you get better. So it's always been a thing in pool in the pool world to watch matches. Like everybody watches matches. But you can never just get them on your TV. They're so hard to be on ESPN every now and again. There's always commercials and all this nonsense.

1:47:49But to be able to watch it on YouTube is fucking amazing. I have a video channel on my YouTube TV. I don't know if it's like a, oh, yeah, there is. Like channel at the ESPN or whatever. Yeah, it's just on YouTube. Yeah, but no, like, well, YouTube TV, like the service, not on the actual YouTube. Oh, yeah, I just switched over to YouTube TV. What is it? It's just, it's cable through YouTube. Yeah, it's so good. It's so integrated now into the middle of the thing that you can watch the movies. You can go back and forth between both apps. Can you get like ESPN? 100 % everything. It costs like any bus a month or whatever.

1:48:21I mean, like, more than 55 now or less. You just pick what shows you want and they always record some. So like I always have like the news recorded and like, you know, search. It's always the DVR for all of them. How much is it? It's all your apps. We have 14 and a half million subscribers on YouTube. I'm just fine. It's a slightly different service, but it's still the same. Yeah, it's good. That's awesome. Yeah. That's the new world. But again, there's a lot of censorship with that too. A lot of demonetization. But again, they're operating on an advertising revenue model, which, you know, advertises complain.

1:48:54Advertises don't want controversial subjects attached to whatever the fuck they're selling. I wonder though, because like, you know, Kiltony's doing really good and, you know, almost every advertiser you could possibly want. You know, we love our advertises, but on YouTube, we're getting educated now. We're getting demonetized, like almost every episode now. And it's mostly because of language. And it's like, but those sponsors that you think are saying, no, we can't have bad poo poo language. You know, they're sponsoring us. Like, it can't be that way. It's okay. It's okay. The hypocrisy is okay.

1:49:30The contradictions are okay. It's just they got to sort this out. And they got to realize that there's real marketing for regular people. They're like, wild shit. Right. And those people buy stuff too. And you can't let this very small vocal minority that complain about things and write letters and start campaigns. You can't let them dictate. You have to let the society dictate. If it's not good, people won't watch it. If it's good, people are watching it. If people are watching it, you can advertise on it. Right. You're going to get those people, the people that enjoy that product. And just stop being the moral compass for the fucking world.

1:50:02Right. Don't do that. Because people, it is the internet now. People can decide. They can decide what they want, decide what they don't want. And you see that. You see this. This company is starting to wake up and go, I think this is just like people like this stuff. Like normal people. Violent movies. You don't sponsor one spawn of time in Hollywood. But if you did, who wants to get in on that sponsorship? People getting murdered and dicks are getting bitten by pit bulls. It's like fucking crazy movie, right? That would be demonetized. You'd be like, that's too much. That's too crazy. But meanwhile, everybody watches it.

1:50:36It's like the same people that buy your stuff. Yeah. Like they got to just relax with that. And stop. You're selling things, okay? You're selling toothpaste. You're not the moral compass of the world. And if people complain about it, fuck them. Don't give in to the mob because you do, you become bud light. Yeah. Yeah. Kill, the name Kill Tony. They told me I can't put it in thumbnails or the titles anymore. So I have to now edit a photo over the word kill. Every episode has to have like that. That was a problem because of the joke name. But me, I'll kill Bill. Yeah, kill Bill available on YouTube.

1:51:13Exactly. I'm sure it's like I bet it is. YouTube movie percent. How do you get by kill Bill? Yeah. Can't you? It's technically different though. They're not gonna be serving ads in Bill or Kill Bill. After it's really them serving, it's the computer program they're using. It serves whatever they think the algorithm wants to, you know, right? Well, it serves the best interest of advertising revenue. That's what it is. They're worried about advertisers not wanting to be associated with something that's crazy. You know, it's their prerogative. But I think it's a mistake. I think when things are popular and things are good, you should advertise on them, you know.

1:51:47It's like, come on, what are you doing? Right. What are you doing? I think it a little sort itself out. Yeah. I mean, Kill Tony is just too big now. Yeah. I mean, you guys sold out a fucking arena for New Year's and started a second show. Yeah. So this is a second arena on for sale. So it's probably stupid as that. It's amazing. It's amazing. It's gonna be 15 ,000 people watching a live podcast. It's in Austin. Same. Yeah. It's amazing. And then Tony's like, they'll come to us. Yeah. And he's right. Yeah. He's right. And it works. It's a cool thing happening here right now, man. And Kill Tony is a giant cornerstone of it.

1:52:24Your show is the cornerstone of, and I was telling Tony this last night when we were having dinner together. So it's the cornerstone of the comedy community for Austin. And I think for the whole country because it teaches young comics to just be funny. Just be funny. Find your voice up there. But the most important thing is you gotta be funny. You only have one minute. You can't virtue signal. You can't talk about your victim hood. You can't, no one wants to hear it. You have one minute to be funny. That's the art form. The meat of the joke. Yeah. And if you eventually develop a following, you develop an act and in your act, you have layers and all kinds of different stories.

1:53:00That's great too. That's good. And that's a lot with YouTube's for it. And there's a lot of great comics like Oli Sadiq. His whole act is these stories. He's so good. And he can turn over an hour like nobody. Because his stories are so good. He's got so many of them. And so when he, but when he does that, that's not going to work on Kill Tony. It's a different kind of act. But it's still along the same vein. It's still he's funny. You know, and if he had a condense it to one minute, 100 % he could do that. Like that's what it teaches comics to be funny. Just be funny. Yeah, because big majority of people can't even do a minute.

1:53:35Like they can't even get one joke out in a minute. That's, yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, it's hard. It's fucking hard, especially if you're not good at editing. Yeah. If you're one of those guys being doing open mic nights, you don't know how sloppy your stuff is and how much fat is in it. People, it's a difficult skill to learn. Had it condense a joke into, you know, I really learned it from Joey. I think Joey is the best at it. Because Joey's set up punchline bam. It's always so electric. Like when Joey's killing, it's always the punchline sneak in before you ever see him comment and you're fucking crying.

1:54:10He's the best at that. He really enforced this idea that I was already aware of, which is the economy of words. Like you say it with the least amount of words possible and the best way possible. Except sometimes, sometimes you have to explain things. Sometimes you have to take the people on a little journey. Well, no, also that's also a different kind of form. I mean, I like going into a nice story. I mean, sure, it's edited down and it's, you know, not as long as I used to be. But I like that sometimes. Yeah. Well, that's where Ari show was so good. Yeah. You know, the, this is not happening when he was doing that.

1:54:46I remember when he started that we were all hanging out and he said, I'm going to do a story teller show. Like what do you know? It's a good way to develop material. That is a good way to develop material. People know you're just going to tell stories because if you try to tell a story on stage, there's this expectation of like constant punchlines. So he figured out how to tell funny stories and we all sort of joined in on that. You know, remember we used to do the lab at the improv. Yeah. That little room, which was the perfect place for it. That they should have never got rid of that little room.

1:55:15I thought it's still there. No. Now it's bar. Oh, they just, no, there's the bar in that little room in front of the bar, which is hot desk. Yeah, yeah, yeah, everybody eats a dick at the bar. That's the worst room. I hate that room. That room is just something about me. Well, the other room was amazing. It's crazy how just the setup of a room changes everything. If you have a room where it's fully contained, you don't have to constantly hear the door opening. You don't have constantly people shuffling through getting to the other room, which is though that room house. And then the bathroom is right on the corner, which mixes with the green room area.

1:55:49Like all that chaos is too much chaos in that room. It's not set at the curtain there. Get the fuck out of here. Go back to what you had. You had a door when you went into the whole new room and that whole new room had a small stage and everybody was packed in tight and it was magic. Yeah, they screwed that up. It's a member of the mural. At least they got rid of that. How many times do we have to give them a hard time about it though? We would constantly goof around. When you look like dolphins. Yeah, that's rich in fire. No, it's not. There was so many people on that wall that was just like, what are you looking at?

1:56:26I'm kind of scared to go to the ice house because you know, that was such a beautiful. Both of those stages were pretty beautiful. And all the photos I see now, it looks like you're at a, I don't know, a sports game or something. It's supposed to still be really good. Yeah. Everybody had another twerking that said the room was still pretty good. I mean, not pretty good, really good. It's still a great space. You know, they did kind of jazz it up a little bit and clean it up, which is like the last thing I would have ever done in that place. Right. I would have left everything exactly the way it was.

1:56:54Made some improvements. You can make some improvements and not change the, because that room was magic. That room was so good that agents wouldn't accept a tape from there. Right. Like if someone did a set from there, like, no, I need to see you at all. Right. Because it was a cheat code. Everyone killed there. Why is that? Because it was like a roadshow. Especially when you lived in LA, you're so used to these horrible audiences where half of it was managers and Hollywood staff and people in the industry. So when you would go there, no, no, no, those people would ever drove over there. So it felt like, oh, this is like I'm on the road.

1:57:25Yeah, I was like the road, right? They were appreciative and it was fun. And they were just regular people. Yeah, they weren't like industry adjacent. Right. I mean, how many people when you go to the comedy store on a regular night just like actors and producers and agents show? Well, it's an agent show. I remember this as a lady in the front room. She turned out to be some executive for one of the networks and she was like stopping the comics from saying, don't say that. Stop saying she was drunk. And then we found that she was an executive. Like, what the fuck are you doing? Interrupting art.

1:57:55You don't even know, you shouldn't even be here. This isn't even what you're involved in. You think you have that carte blanche just because you're sort of connected to comedy somehow because occasionally your network hires comedians for sitcoms like get out of the air. The fuck out of here. But that was the mentality those people had. Like they could just tell you what to do and what to say. They were used to telling people what to do. They thought they could just stop comedy. You know, it was so annoying. There's so many arms crossed. So many people in that crowd. They just went, they didn't want, go there to have a good time.

1:58:27A lot of them went there and they were upset that they were not on stage. Yeah. You know, there's a lot of that. Just that fucking weirdness of Hollywood is such a, but it also made for a great place to practice too because if your shit worked there, you didn't work anywhere. Exactly. If you could kill the store in the OR, that was a legit set. So Doug Stanhope, at Skankfest the other day, he drank his own piss on stage. Oh, what do you move? Definitely a good substitute for writing. Have you seen the preview for his movie, his new movie? That looks so good. No, I haven't seen it. It's called like on the road or something.

1:59:06Maybe it's a documentary. No, it's a movie made by somebody famous and it's about being on the road. Okay, I have to pee. We'll come back with a watch trailer. Cool. All right, right back. And we're back. Hi, everybody. The movie's called Road Dogs and Jamie said it actually won some awards. Oh, shit. The Road Dog. And this is about comics? Yeah. Greg Fittem is in it. You should watch the trailer. It's like, whoa, Doug. Press. Let's go. Uh, well, now, I'm just looking at Jesus. He got bands. Why is that? Is this it?

1:59:51You ready for your headliner? He's been doing it for over 30 years. Please welcome the Road Dog, Jimmy Quinn. My name is Jimmy and I'm an alcoholic. Hey, Phil and Jimmy. You look a little worn out. I'm a road comic. I am worn out. Go away. I'm not the maid. I'm your son.

2:00:16Can I take it a lunch? Give me a bit. Sure, I'm not what you expected. You're exactly what I expected. That's what I'm going to be. Maybe it's genetic. I'll just stop down that school. Hold your applause. It's funny. You see, we spend a little bit more time together. We'll have some ghosts. I'm afraid you won't be receiving any money, but I will pray for you. You got a nice kid there. There are many things highly of you. Yeah, he doesn't know me that well, Phil. A little nervous, because you know what? You did it your last headlining act. I've been booking Jimmy 20 years. This was probably one of the funniest people I've ever met.

2:01:01But he has no discipline. Comedy's about pain. It's like he doesn't even care. It's an addict. Until he decides he wants to do it for himself, there's nothing you or anyone else can do for him. I've never made on TV. TV isn't real comedy. Real comedy's live, you know, in the moment. I go on that stage. I'm the talent. I'm the writer. I'm the director. The customer doesn't like it. I tell the customer to go for it. Who is in a car? Oh, that's David. Nice son. Top that for a living. Remember me? How I made you laugh? Jesus, something pressed on it. No, no, no. And it thinks Doug Stan have had sex to have a kid.

2:01:51Yeah. Old Douglas. It was great having him at the club. Yeah. He was there early on. One of the first ones we did came down, checked it out. Just cool having him around. I love that guy. Yeah. Such an original human. He's such uniquely Doug. I mean, he is who he is. Absolutely. And his girl. And his manager. Yeah, the whole crew. Chaos crew. Funny people, man. Is he still doing his podcast? I believe so. I mean, his place had caught on fire. So I'm not sure if that was part of it or not.

2:02:29Brought we've been doing this since 2009. And at the beginning, when we first started doing it, it was like, what the fuck are you doing? We actually did it even more before that too. Yeah. Back in the Justin TV days. We tried a few different versions of something. Yeah. Where we fuck around in the green room. We tried a few different versions of like this idea that we could just stream stuff. And have fun. But that's why I think why it worked. Because it was all just fun. Like no one ever thought it was going to be a business. Yeah. It was more just hanging out. Yeah. Doing tech stuff. Yeah, being silly.

2:03:06How about a good time? Being silly. You know, we thought of a lot of versions of it. I mean, before Twitch was a thing, you know, imagine in the world where people would make a living just streaming video games online. Like they just like playing video games. Then also this thing came along. And now people make crazy money. What people watch and play video games. Like what? I watched four hours of a guy playing. A putter playing grand theft auto role playing last night. I wonder how much different is that than me watching pool? It's probably the same. You know? Not much different. You know, it wouldn't be better if you were playing.

2:03:46And yes, definitely. But there's a thing in watching people play stuff. Like it's exciting. Especially if you play that thing. Like if you're watching some of the, like if you're watching Elon play Diablo. Right. And you play Diablo. Something's exciting about that. Yeah. No one saw that coming either. No one saw podcasts coming. No one saw that coming. There's a bunch of these things. No one saw coming. And I think the next thing is definitely that Zuck and Lex. Yeah. Stuff. Well, you've been doing VR for a long time. You've been doing these fuck around. Yeah, it's just me playing video. Yeah.

2:04:22It's pretty much. But yeah, it's, and you know, it's, it's hard to like communicate because it's 2D. You're watching me play it on 2D. So it just looks like I'm playing every other video game. Like in a chat room or something. So the idea of like that, like Lex and, and Zuck doing it. That kind of shows more like, hey, these people aren't together. That's not them, you know? Like that's crazy. That's crazy. And I think that, I think once Apple also releases it, it's, it's going to be a different world when it comes to that stuff. I think, yeah, I think so too. And I think if everybody gets on, if it's as easy as getting on your phone, it's not going to be in the beginning.

2:05:03Not everybody's going to have that thing. It might be one of those things that we look at like this. Like 2023. Right. So between 2005, just continued. Yeah. Yeah, it might be, but it might eventually boil down to a pair of glasses that you wear. Some cool looking glasses that allow you to do all this wild shit. Yeah, you scan your face using your iPhone. The thing is like, where's the battery going to be? How much battery life is it going to have? Well, that's the one thing that Apple, I think, did wrong. Is that this first generation of theirs, the battery, you're wearing it on your like belt.

2:05:34Which, what everybody loves. Yeah, I mean, you know Steve Jobs would never have allowed that. No way. Never. No way. He probably would have said we can't do it yet. No. Or just, I mean, put the battery in the back. Yeah, even that is not going to work. It needs to be big. That battery is like a brick. I mean, you're carrying around essentially like a tablet. Like how big is the battery? It's about the size, it's like bigger than an iPhone. It's about the size of an iPhone, but a little thicker. It's kind of heavy, right? It's got to be all batteries. Yeah. But it's only like two hours, three hour battery pack, too though.

2:06:09They probably wanted to give you a backpack. Yeah. But then again, like what is going on with having that electronic strap to you? Right. Like is that good for you? That's what it looks like. So that thing sits in your pocket, that brick? Or your belt. Yeah. And the cool thing though is that you can just, it's MagSafe, you know. So they want you to buy multiple ones. So it can't, you can't take it off. And I think there's an internal battery that lasts a small. So you can take it off without disconnecting and swap it. So you're going to have like ten of those things. Are you though? I mean, I'm going to.

2:06:44There's going to be a bunch of people that do it. It looks dope. That lady in the upper corner, the world one, go, click the upper, yeah. Yeah, with the eyes. That thing's the creepiest thing. You're going to see people walking around like that. Oh, like dead eyed. I could see six street filled with people walking on street like that. Heck yeah. Because you're going to be able to get an uber from that thing. You're going to be able to order food from that thing. Yeah. Wow. I like it. I think it's going to be, I think it, just because it's so unique and crazy. And especially the eye thing, I think people are going to be like jealous when other people have it.

2:07:19Because the first year, they're supposedly they're not going to make that many of them. To make it even more desirable, you know. And this is augmented reality, right? So what are the features that it's going to offer you that it's going to make you walk down Congress with that? It's going to be VR and AR. But yeah, things like having stuff pop up like, you know, like maps and stuff like, like go turn right here. Like our phone calls or you'll be able to do FaceTime with people, you know. People are going to drive with that thing. They originally didn't show any of that outside of their house though.

2:07:46So, right. That there'll be another step. The developer is going to someone's going to have to make something that makes you take it out of your house and put it on sort of. Right. Right. It's got to be feasible that you can walk around with this thing on. And they're also not putting it on their shoulders to make that. They're like developers, go ahead and buy it and start thinking of cool shit. Because we're not going to take that responsibility. And then when you do have it, let's just stop you from watching a movie while you're driving. Yeah. I mean, people are fucking stupid. It would be cool though if they have that on while you're driving.

2:08:18And like kind of like, like what Tesla has, like the boxes around people. So it's like, watch out for, you know, to the right. Do you remember when people were playing Pokemon go in their cars? Yeah. It was real common. Yeah. I remember I was in my truck. So I was, look, I was in my Lexus, the SUV. So I was looking down at this lady. She was driving erratically. And I'm like, this bitch is playing Pokemon. She was playing Pokemon while she was driving. So she had the Pokemon up and she was looking at that while she was driving. That was a weird week when that game came out. I remember going to the comedy store.

2:08:50Literally every single comic had their phone open playing it. People on the sidewalk was all like teamed up in a big group. Like strangers just playing it because I guess there was like a fighting ring at the comedy store that everyone wanted to play. And, uh, yeah, it was. But what happened? What, why did die? The novelty kind of wore off of it, I think, you know, just like everything, you know, after like two weeks or so. I'll still pull it out once in a while and play and see like, uh, what's around my house, you know? But, you know, what? How many monthly players do you think they average?

2:09:29It's still huge in Asia. I know that. Let me say 50 million. Seven to eight over the last 30 days. What? Yeah, it's still huge in Asia. But in America, like, I'd love to see what the drop off was. Yeah. Where was? I opened it up like a month ago. And there were still people playing like around me where I live in the middle of nowhere. So there's still people probably playing. There's still about a million people in America playing it. That's only a million though. Yeah, that's not much. What was it at the peak? It had a crazy hot. Crazy, yeah. I wonder what happened to those people? They just woke up.

2:10:03Yeah. Imagine like, bro, we got this. Right. Imagine what they were thinking, dude. We got them. They're hooked forever, forever. This is going to be like every other game that people get a dick to do. And then everybody was just like, you the fuck out of here with this thing? There's three times as many people in the US and Japan playing it. Really? According to this statistic. Are we the number one? No, I think Korea probably. I mean, it doesn't have, yeah, it has US number one grade, bread number two, Japan number three, Sweden and Canada, but there might be a leave in out. So we're number one.

2:10:33Number one. Folk. Maricop. Folk. Yeah. What is the number one country where video games have played? Is it America? That or China? Right. I would think. I don't know.

2:10:52Yeah, I would imagine it would be, I mean, I know that video game like those leagues are huge in Asia. You know, like Korea. Starcraft was the big one, right? They have those giant tournaments. Yeah. Now it's like League of Legends. China, one, US two for video game players. Do you ever talk to, do you ever talk to Carmac anymore? Yeah, occasionally. Yeah. Yeah, we were going back and forth on Twitter the other day. Remember when we went down to, yeah, his office, back in the days, like a few years ago or something? At least. Yeah. At least. Yeah, that was when they were developing Quake 3. Yeah.

2:11:30Yeah, that was awesome. They were going to play Quake with those guys in their own studios. That was a giant boy that made you realize how much work is involved in making a video game like, Oh, yeah. Oh, that's work. Like you need a guy like Carmac who just sits there for 16 hours and then just coding. This is a crazy stat. I don't know if you, I feel like I don't believe it. Three out of four Americans play video games on various consoles, more than half playing on mobile phones. You don't think that's true? Absolutely. I mean, I guess like is it for five minutes minimum per month or something like that?

2:12:08US trails China with over 244 million gamers. China has 665 million gamers. Woo. It translated into 40 .85 billion in revenue for 2020. Ukraine's like, that's not enough. We need more. Although the 2018 license free slowed down to Y -O -Y growth rate, the Chinese gaming market was still able to post a modest from 36 .5 billion in 2019, like a modest increase I think it's supposed to say there. Right. Wow. So three out of four Americans play video games. You think that's too high, Jamie? Yeah, I mean, would you consider yourself a gamer even though you don't play it now? No. I mean, you were the one.

2:12:46No, I definitely wouldn't consider myself now. I haven't played a gaming years. Well, but I think my mom even opens up like crossword games or like subway servers. Yeah, yeah. Subway servers. Subway servers is addictive, man. People love that. Yeah, but you know, there's like a parent game. So you know, like, yeah, those are video games. Yeah, I guess. Chess. Chess. You play Chess. Chess, isn't that a video game? Yeah, or that mind -sweep thing. Yeah, that's the ultimate one to play online. Chess. Because you can kind of get a game at any point in time with some wizard all over the world. And you guys can head fuck each other.

2:13:24But but plugs in around for thousands of years. That poor guy who that Chess championed and I want things put plug up a plug in. Oh, yeah, they think he cheated somehow. And one of the ideas was anal beads vibrating anal beads. My thought is like how first of all, that guy I think has cheated before. I think he has admitted that he did online. But also plays really good chess. Like he's a top level chess player too. And I think a lot of those like really ambitious guys, they cheated just to jack up their rating. Right. You know, like it's kind of a thing to have like a very high rating. Right.

2:14:06And then they always accuse each other of cheating. Of course. Because you could cheat. How would you and what, why would you think he had like a vibrating butt plug in also? All things. See, that's just a fun thing to say. Right. It's like when they said Trump had hookers beyond them. He has fun things to say. You know, who knows what's true. But if I was going to cheat at a chess match and I used vibrating anal beads. We don't know the answer. They just reached an agreement and they're going to not talk about it anymore. So they settled a dispute over cheating claims that rock chess, US player had filed lawsuit against the former world champion.

2:14:42Part is agreed to move forward after series of allegations. I think if you can't prove that he cheated and it seems like they can't prove they just suspected that he cheated. Hans Neiman, a rising star in the chess world filed a $100 million lawsuit against Magnus Carlson. The website chess .com and chess streamer, her caroo Nakaburo, after allegations that he cheated or the allegations began after Neiman beat Carlson widely considered one of the greatest players in history in a match. How do you say that word? At the sink sink field cop last year. The Norwegian implied that the then teenager had cheated a week later Carlson refused to play in an online game against the American opting instead to resign.

2:15:25Neiman has admitted to cheating online when he was 12 and 16, but in CIS he has never done so over the board. He also promised to play naked to prove his innocence. What about your butt? Yeah. That makes me suspicious. After unfounded claims may have used vibrating anal beads were amplified by Eli Muff. Eli Muff. You're going to go ahead. Amplified. That's a funny term. chess .com, which has millions of views around the world, concluded in a 72 page report released last October that Neiman had likely cheated in online matches between July 2015 and August 2020. The money. Neiman denied those allegations.

2:16:06The report did not find any evidence that Neiman had cheated in in -person matches. So US Judd dismissed Neiman suit in June on Monday. chess .com said the parties have agreed to move forward with no further threat of legal action. I guess that's good. The thing is it's hard to say because the guy is really good too. It's like he's a really good chess player as well. He had been fully, it's called like it. It said at this time Hans has been fully reinstated to chess .com and we look forward to his participation in our events. We would also like to reaffirm that we stand by the findings in our October 2022 publicly report requiring regarding Hans, including that we found no determinative evidence that he has cheated in any in -person games.

2:16:52We all love chess and appreciate all of the passionate fans and community members who allow us to do what we do. Okay, that's fair. It makes it interesting. Now people are paying attention to chess. That's one good thing about it that people need to recognize. Like that was a lot of publicity for chess. It just seems like idiocracy. You know, the movie idiocracy that now before it chess mats, there might be a choice where we had to put up a curtain and have a doctor look at each of the players' assholes before they can play a game of chess. Maybe there's a thing you could swallow and it would vibrate inside of you.

2:17:27I'm sure there's way more than that too. You're talking about a lot of money. I don't know how much money chess players make. What's a big tournament in chess? What's a grand prize? What do you get? Oh, God. A million? No, I don't think it's... You think me? A few hundred. Okay. I think, okay, let's find out the biggest amount of money ever won in a chess tournament. Wow. I'd say it's a million. I'd say it's 4 .5 million. That's probably right. I'm probably under. But I think most chess matches... There are no money in chess. In other countries, people really value chess a lot more than they value it in America for some strange.

2:18:11But we do value it as if you're good at chess. You have to be smart. Like if someone says they're really good at chess, I mean, I immediately think they're smart. They have to be smart. It's like one game. You could be really good at hockey and be a moron. Like a guess. I would imagine. I don't know. I mean, I know a lot of people play hockey or brilliant. But it's possible that you could just be a goon. And just like to smash people and check in to people and you're good at skating. But if I talk to you about the world, I would imagine you don't have a nuanced take. But if you tell me that you're a chess grandmaster, I'm like, oh, that's a smart person.

2:18:46It's an extraordinarily smart person. Like universally smart. Like I don't think there's a single moron that's like a chess grandmaster. I don't think it's possible. You could be a moron and be like really good at some things. Shackers. You could be a moron and have like a crazy fastball. Like that's all you do. You just fucking throw that ball so fast and accurate. But you might be a moron. It's possible. You're probably brilliant. I'm not saying that all pictures are morons. But I think there's a possibility that you could be a moron. Whereas if you're a chess grandmaster, there's zero possibility.

2:19:19You're done. Right? I would say agree. I would agree. Yeah, don't you think Jamie? Yeah. Yeah. So that's a unique game. So I have two answers, I guess, to two questions. You said the biggest prize ever award is a little different than like how they really do it. But the biggest prize ever, I guess we could do a guess. It was like the guess. It's a 1992. I said 4 .5. I said 1 million. So 5 million is the biggest match ever between two guys, Fisher and Spasky, so maybe Bobby Fisher. Though there are 27 different people that have won over a million dollars playing chess. Okay. But this 27 people that won over a million dollars playing pool.

2:20:00Yeah. Because you know, I would say the average is probably. They make a quarter million dollars a year, the best guys. And you know, Casserole is listed as the top overall. A thousand. 17 .2 million. Mm hmm. Another guy at 14 .2. Casserole is an interesting guy. Very vocal. It is like anti -Russian government talk on social media. It's like, I'd be fucking nervous if I was that dude. Yeah. You know, I don't know if he would. There's certain things you don't talk about that. Yeah. Michael Jackson. You know, I'm talking about that. No, I tweeted one thing about Michael Jackson once and I was getting attacked.

2:20:39Yeah, you should know. Comments. The Michael Jackson one is crazy because there's like most people think he did something wrong. Most people. And yet his music plays everywhere. Yeah. That's how good he is. Mm hmm. Or was. Yeah. And that's like the best cautionary tale as to how sideways you can go with fame. Like you went the most sideways that anybody ever went. It's really weird seeing him. I watched some video of, you know, when they were asking him questions about things, you know, any. And the video made it look like he had a big hole in his nose. I don't know if he probably did. Yeah, he did.

2:21:15He did. Yeah, that was a hole. Yeah. Okay, I thought I was just weird shadows and I'm like, it looks like he has a. No, I don't think it was. I think this is all pre -photo shop days. I think he. Or videos. Yeah. I think he had skin grafts on his nose because if you have too many nose surgery. Right. First of all, there's something that can happen with a tissue dies. Like he cut it into things to me times the tissue dies. I have a foot nostril. Yeah. I think he burned a hole for you. He's always saying. I was always nostril. I was wondering if that was real. Like is that just the conclusion? Was that possible?

2:21:47The thing about Joey was everything was a crazy exaggeration that was funny. That was like his style of comedy. It's like everything was like 20. You know, he'd say something ridiculous where you know it couldn't be possible and you had to laugh. Yeah. He's a cartoon. He's a cartoon. Yeah. He's the best. I miss him. That's one person. I really, really wish lived here. Well, he's going to come visit. You know, he did the mothership one night. He came by. They went nuts. Every time he goes anywhere, people go nuts. But you know, he's enjoying himself a new jersey. Yeah. He likes new jersey. And when I went there with him, I get it.

2:22:22I get it. It's nice, relaxed. He goes to these Italian restaurants. I can't even see it. Everybody knows him. They're all nice, nice, normal people. He likes it. Yeah. His kid likes it. His wife likes it. It'd be cool to have Florentine as a neighbor too. I think that's the thing. I mean, he's going to come down every now and again and with us. He also, you don't want him coming here in the summer and yelling at you. No. The fuck is this Joe Robin? 107 degrees. He likes the fuck is 107 degrees. Yeah. That was a little much this year. This year, you know, it was pretty extreme. It's interesting.

2:23:00Yeah. It's like anybody who denies, like people want to deny climate change. Like don't do that. No. Don't do that. Listen, we can debate what impact human beings are having on it. And what should be done about it? That certainly. But the idea that something's going on, like, yeah, are you looking at the weather? Are you paying attention? It seems like it's really hot in the summer. I mean, maybe that's just a streak and it's going to go back to cool again. Maybe not though. The thing about it is, this is what no one wants to admit on either side of that, is that it never stays flat. The climate always does this before we were ever around.

2:23:40It gets crazy hot and then it's an ice age. And then the polar caps melt and the fucking sea rises. And they find ancient civilizations underwater because there used to be a town there. All this pottery is there because the people got drowned out because the ocean moved. It's always changed. It's always changed. What we should be concentrating on more than anything, I think, is what we're doing in the ocean. What we're doing in the ocean is crazy. We've killed, we tried to figure out how much it is. It's hard, they don't know what the real estimates are. But some people estimate it's as high as 90 % of the big fish in the ocean are missing.

2:24:20We just scooped them up with nets and fucking served them up in cans, and two in a cans, and sushi, and we went, hey, ohm. And then we're throwing plastic in the ocean. Microplastics are now in rain. That's crazy. That's convenient if you want to get your micropracix in your dive. You're trying to disrupt your endocrine system, enough time to eat credit cards. Just drink water. It's in the rain. Oh my god. Of course it's in the rain. It gets evaporated. It's in the water. Evaprates goes in the sky. Did you read that new study? Something shocking about one out of three women who drank diet coke during pregnancy had an autistic kid.

2:25:04Oh my god. And they're now putting this connection to diet coke and diet. Is that real? That's pretty good. It just came up. Yeah, it was. What was this? This was like two weeks ago I read. Oh my god. And that's scary because there is a lot more, I think, more autistic people or people in the spectrum than there used to be. Like, it seems like it. Study finds link between drinking some diet soda during pregnancy and autism and boys. Oh boy. So it says a team of researchers said they observed a link between autism diagnosis and boys. And their mother is drinking at least one diet soda daily or consuming equivalent amount of the sweetener aspartame during pregnancy or while breastfeeding according to new study.

2:25:47In the study, the researcher at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio asked the parents of 235 children with an autism spectrum disorder and 121 children without autism who were the study's controls to complete a retrospective questionnaire about their diet soda and aspartame intake while pregnant or breastfeeding. They're children. Researchers asked biological mothers while you were pregnant or breastfeeding your child, how often did you drink diet drinks containing artificial sweeteners? Please count. Diet soda's first such as Diet Coke, Diet Dr. Pepper and Diet Sprite and then other diet drinks such as citrus light, sugar free coolates, slim fast and other light drinks.

2:26:28Note not all the diet beverages contain aspartame. The researchers did not ask women to only think about aspartame containing diet beverages they consume while pregnant or breastfeeding. However, all drinks listed in the survey's examples do contain aspartame. Team found that boys with autism had more than three times the likelihood of having a mother who drank diet soda daily while pregnant or breastfeeding than boys without autism per the findings published in the peer reviewed journal nutrients. Whoa. The researchers did not find a statistically significant association with girls. That's interesting.

2:27:06Why it's more difficult to diagnose girls with autism than boys? These associations did not prove causality. That's a different link. Yeah, I was just... My favorite reason. But taken in concert with reports from earlier studies of increased prematureity and cardiometabolic health impacts among infants and children exposed daily to diet beverages. Holy shit. Or aspartame during pregnancy are findings raised new questions about the potential neurological impacts that need to be addressed. Didn't that shit get pushed through? Didn't aspartame get pushed through by... Who's that fucking... The military guy.

2:27:44The fuck's his name? All over the... No. No, it's the tip of my tongue. The guy who was on the... The guy who was talking about the Pentagon missing a trillion dollars. Remember that guy? Yeah. Donald Rumsfeld. Didn't Donald Rumsfeld have something to do with Aspartame? I think so. I think you're on the something. Yeah. I think... See, Donald Rumsfeld pushed through Aspartame. Did he? I think there were some shenanigans involved in Aspartame. And this is coming from someone who consumed it all the time. Yeah. I mean, it is poison. I'm glad that's been... It's poison. Pretty much right? But is it poison like alcohol where it's okay, but it's not okay when you're breastfeeding?

2:28:25You know what I'm saying? Like, you could have a few glasses of wine if you're not breastfeeding, right? You can get a little tipsy and you're gonna be okay. You could have a few tequila and have a hangover the next day. Yeah, yeah, you drank something. You shouldn't drink. But it's not gonna fuck you up that bad. But if you were pregnant, you're kicking that fetal alcohol syndrome. Right. I think there's a difference between saying that something is dangerous and saying something is dangerous. While someone's pregnant. Right. Because like Elon was talking about how much diet Koki drinks. If that kind of drink a diet coke, I am not that worried.

2:28:57Right. It seems pretty fucking smart. Okay. So there's a story here. It says Donna Rumsfeld was involved with a company called, I think, Ciro, it's at here. He was a CEO at Ciro. We received a $12 million bonus in 1985 when the company was absorbed by Monsanto. Right here then, I had to go back. It says that he was involved with picking the new head of the FDA for the FDA commissioner. And that guy had no previous history in artificial sweeteners. Yeah, no previous experience with food added is before being appointed director of the FDA. Interesting. So Hayes, Reagan's new FDA commissioner appointed a five person scientific commission to review the board of inquiry's decision.

2:29:41It soon became clear that the panel would uphold the ban by a three to two decision. So Hayes installed a six member on the commission and the vote became deadlocked. He then personally broke the tie in Aspertaim's favor. Whoa. Shenanigans. One of Hayes' first official acts as FDA chief was to approve the use of Aspertaim as an artificial sweetener in dry goods. On July 18, 1981, in order to accomplish his feat, Hayes had to overlook the scuttled grand jury testimony of Ciro. I don't know if that has overcome the Bressler report and ignore the PBOI's recommendations and pretend Aspertaim did not chronically sicken and kill thousands of lab animals.

2:30:25What? How many of them had? Oh my god, how much have I taken? Hayes left his post at the FDA in November of 1983 amid accusations that he was accepting corporate gifts for political favors. That's crazy. He wouldn't do that just because leaving office just before leaving office in scandal Hayes approved of the use of Aspertaim in beverages after Hayes left the FDA under allegations of impropriety. He served briefly as provost at New York Medical College and then took a position as a high paid senior medical advisor with Bernson, Marstellar, the chief public relations firm for both Monsanto and GDCural.

2:31:04Since that time, he's never spoken publicly about Aspertaim. FYI, here's Rachel Maddow on Bronson, Marstellar. When evil needs public relations, evil has Berson, Marstellar on speed dial. Evil, that name is chemical food additives. Okay. Here's the kicker. When Surah was absorbed by Monsanto in 1985, Donald Rumsfeld reportedly received a $12 million bonus. Okay, I'll say it. There it is. Yeah. So I think, though, what I think I've seen Lane Norton talk about is that the amount of Aspertaim that killed laborats was preposterous. Like that a human being couldn't even consume that amount. That it would have to be something like, I forget the number, but at some preposterous number, like you'd have to drink 1 ,800 diacokes a day or something like that.

2:31:57Something really nutty to get the amount that was sickening and killing these lab rats. Well, how many of these rats had autism now? How many of these rats were pussy? Could take a little diegote. Antistak rats everywhere. Millions of them. You know, there's the other thing that Brett Weinstein has brought up is these lab mice and lab rats. Like they're bred for that purpose. And so, like, they don't live long. Like, it's not a good way to study long -term effects. And it's also like, these are things that are literally bred to take fucking chemicals and have experiments run on them. Like, the idea that these are just like normal mammals seems a little far fetched.

2:32:44Because you're actually literally breeding them for testing things on them. It should just grab them from New York. The New York rats? Bro. What a living hell. To be an organism that just exists so that you can test potential toxins and poisons on human beings. And so, your very life only exists to make the intelligent life forms think that they can live longer and better with your medication. And we all agree to it. We all like, yep, good way to do it. Practice on rats. Practice on monkeys. Yeah, that's the most fucked up shit. The monkey wants wild. The monkey wants wild because they're sort of like us.

2:33:32They're sort of like they can think and they can react and they're grabbing things. And you know, you sit there like, the fucking rods in your head and they're alive. The monkey wants wild. Because like, it's something like there's like levels of things that were allowed to kill. Like if someone kills a bug, no one freaks out. Like, I remember when I lived in Colorado, I went to this Buddhist oshram that was in my neighborhood. Just kind of in the neighborhood, seeing what they're doing. And they actually had places they would rent out there like houses that they had for rent. So, there's people I knew that like wanted to live up there and they wanted to, you know, rent a place.

2:34:11And the lady who had the oshram was spraying bug killer on ants. She had an ant problem. And I go, you poison the ants? She's like, well, you know, it's really not what we want to do. But I go, but you're a Buddhist. And you just committed mass murder for your convenience. Like if we think that every life form is a life form. If we think that one equals one, you know, like one roach that dies or one mouse that gets run over by a combine in a field with a trying to cultivate wheat. One is one. If that's the case, like, you can't be spraying bug spray on ants. But we don't think that. Like even vegans get hit by a mosquito that slap that motherfucker.

2:35:02You know, they kill that bitch, right? Everybody kills mosquitoes. Fuck you. I'm not going to be itchy for your life. No one says, just take from me what you need. The only reason why you're doing is because you're needy, please take from me and make me itchy. Nobody does that. Everybody swats. If you find a tick, you pull that fucker off of you. Oh my god, this tick, you kill it. You don't go get it, let it go so it can give Lyme disease to other folks and other animals. You kill that little cock sucker, little blood sucking piece of shit. You find a leech on you, you little leech. Do what you must.

2:35:36Take from me what you must. No, you peel that bitch off. That's a weird thing. If you have to rip it in half, you rip it in half. But when it gets to like things with fur, then we go, oh, what are you doing? Nothing is hair. Nothing is hair on it. That's why people freak out way more over like if you have a picture with a dead deer versus a picture with a fish. Nobody gives a shit if you get your fish. You can hold up a bass like David Lucas. He has no hate. Nice bass, David. You know, David's bass fishing motherfucker. He's good at it. He knows what he's doing. He catches some nice bass. They're like, no, what do you get some out?

2:36:08But if David was like holding up a dairy shot, people would... Because it's got fur. Except turtles and dolphins. Yeah, you can kill turtles. I saw a video of somebody killing a turtle to eat it though. And that... Turtles who? Yeah. And that was one of the worst things I've ever seen. Like if you think about this turtle, how old is he probably like a hundred years old? And he's just survived so much and now he's just got picked by a fish. I don't think those are the ones that lived to be a hundred years old. Right. I think those are sea turtles. These are regular turtles they make soup out of?

2:36:43Yeah. That bit has been around for a couple of weeks. Oh, really? I don't know. I used to have pet turtles. Yeah. I used to have pet piranhas and pet turtles. And the pet turtles were way more ferocious. Where they? Ferocious. Ferocious. Which feed them goldfish and they just swim over those goldfish and grab them with their little paws and just jump into them. It's like, whoa, they're ferocious. They're little dinosaurs. Turtles are fucking cool to have an aquarium. But there's a lot of like risks of diseases and... Really on turtles. You touch them. You have to really make sure you wash them.

2:37:18I didn't know that. Yeah, you can catch some funky shit. And especially, look, they're shitting in this tank. And then how often you clean in that water? You mean it's filtering, but how much is it filtering? How much are they shitting? They're in there eating goldfish all the time. They're probably shitting up a storm and they're big. Right? They're like this big. You know, like... I didn't even notice this was a thing. Feed blueberries? No, turtle ASMR. Oh, it's... I've seen this before. It's great. Bro, that is an ancient being. I mean, that is essentially like what we would have seen during the dinosaur era.

2:37:49Exactly. What we expect. It's like a stegosaurus, look like. Yeah. Sonny was the one that made... You remember Sonny? You had on your show? Yes, yes, yes. He's the one that had the video about eating the turtle. And he said it was the first time that... Like him and his wife both over like... Should we even release this? Like, should we release it? Oh, really? It was the one thing that affected him the most. Why? There's something about turtles. Man, when you see this video, you can probably take a peek of it. But like the turtle is just like... It is so fucking sad, man. That's a big ass turtle.

2:38:23Oh, good day. So that is one of those turtles. Yeah. And that's one of those sea turtles. Yeah, when they show his face, like they just have it like... Oh, Jesus. Yeah, it is. Look at that. Oh, yeah. It's just fucked up, man. I got so emotional about this video. I mean, you just look at his little face. Look at this thing. Oh, they just smashing it. And so this is the thing they do all the time? Yeah. Oh my god. So the thing is still alive. Yeah. What are they killing it? Yeah. It's horrible. Oh, man. You know, there's a thing too about them having armor. So they kind of, most of the time, are protected.

2:38:58Yeah. That we kind of realize how vulnerable they are. I want a person to get some. Like, oh, no. Yeah. He's going to get you now. Yeah. Like your whole life, you've had an awesome protection. Provided you by nature. Oh my god. Oh, he's doing it while it's still alive. Yeah. Why doesn't he kill it first? I think they smashed his head in or something. Dude, it's moving still. Oh god, I don't want to watch. I stopped watching this part. It seems like when he was cutting into it, it's legs removing. Okay. It's dead by that, right? Bro, that's rough. Why is it so rough? Like, geez. How old is a sea turtle when it's that big?

2:39:35It's what I'm saying. And he's just going to eat it. Yeah. He talks about how emotional he is getting in it this part. Like, oh, did he try it? Yeah. Oh, boy. I guess you have to. I mean, they already killed it. Right. And I guess the reason they're allowed to do it is because it's the religion or something like that. It's part of the native tradition. It's like the reason why people, like the annuals, are allowed to hunt seals and whales and shit. Yeah. It's not interesting. Like, there's animals that we're not, no one's allowed to hunt, but they can hunt them. And then, like, Bourdain did a show once where he went to this family's house and they killed a seal.

2:40:17And then they brought it home and in the kitchen floor, they laid it out and butchered it in the kitchen floor. And they were all just eating raw seal on the kitchen floor. Like, wow. This is though. And again, modern times, normal times, like right now. They're probably doing that right now somewhere. Someone has a seal and the whole family is excited. They got one and they're eating raw seal, like kids. See if you can find that. Yeah. Pretty fascinating because you're realizing, like, well, if you lived up there, that's what you eat. Yeah. So here's the whole family. So they're sitting around in, I don't know where they were.

2:40:59But so they got this seal that they're butchering right there. And people are just taking bites. Yeah. Blood everywhere. Yeah. And they're eating the blood. They're eating everything. They're every little piece of nutritious meat that comes from that seal, they consume. But the crazy thing is they're eating it raw. Like, and he eats it raw right there. No. Can you give me some volume on this? Not actually even per se, more sucked in chew to extract the tiny, nubbit of meat from within the blubber and cartilage. Well, that is good. It tastes like sea urchin raw hum. And of course, and it was inevitable really wasn't it?

2:41:39I'm offered the best part, the eyeball. He's slid. He sucked out like a fat concord drink. Yeah. That's good with you. This is an act of pure generosity and kindness to an honored guest. Can I make this? Okay. Animals. You had it cut in the middle. Look how she has that like blubbered knife. Has a blood smeared taste and gourd covered hands ever looked so benevolent, so kind of sweet. Is this any? No, wow. He's hilarious. Unless that dude. Yeah. That's a, I mean, that's a real part of some people's lives.

2:42:27Do you want, would you want to live in a world where everything goes mad Max? Would you want to get jacked? Jacked. Oh. Like a missile to hit you out. Probably jacked. I would have to get some guns and stuff in real life. It's not even just that. It's like what is life like? Yeah. I don't want to. The people have done that. That's how, that's what we're here. We're here because people didn't pack it in. Right. That's, there's, there's the kind of shit that keeps me up at night. Yeah, I would definitely, we would have the whole family get together and we would all shit each other or something. That's insane.

2:43:03Oh, Jesus Christ, Brian. That'd be like that scene in the mist where the guy, she's his whole family. Yeah. Then the military arrives and he realized he could have been safe. Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah. That was, that's a good Stephen King book. That book is creepy. They did a good job with the movie. The latest, I think there's been more than one. The mists. How there's been more? I don't know. No. Maybe not. You know what I saw recently? That I didn't know. Instead of it from 2022 but I don't think that's correct. There was a Salem's lot with Rob Lowe. Yeah, yeah. When was that? My girlfriend saw it.

2:43:41You mean it 2004? Okay, that makes sense. Because it said 2022. It might got put on, you know, like a string service or something. Right. I think it was on Apple. Let me see if I did just see that. I was typing it in. But yeah, 2004 I think it was a TV miniseries. I can't remember. Yeah. And there was a miniseries long before that too. Let's see. 23. Stephen King's TV show is always so fun to watch. They're not as good as the movies. No. Salem's lot. 23. 2023. Oh, there's a new one that working on. It's so fun. Turn to Salem's lot. I mean, so. Oh, bro, we never get tired of vampires. You know what I saw?

2:44:21That's good. The last voyage of the Demeter. Demeter. Yeah. It's a vampire movie. It's about Dracula's coffin getting transported across the ocean on a boat. Cool. It's pretty fun. Yeah. Yeah, it's stupid, but it's fun. It's like it's a good, but it's a good vampire movie. A good CGI Dracula vampire movie. Did you see the new black Spider -Man? Does the new Spider -Man? Wait, I mean, the second one. You mean the cartoon? Yeah. No, I haven't seen it yet. Oh my God, dude. Is it awesome? The first one was amazing. It almost made me cry how great good it was. Really? I thought it was better than the first one.

2:44:56And how it ends. I haven't seen it. Yeah, the first one was awesome. Because you can do shit with animation that you just can't do any other way. It is probably my favorite. Those two movies are probably my two favorite, top favorite movies of all time, I think. Well, it's such a good superhero movie because it's so comic book -like. Okay, so it was a lot of 2023. Warner Brothers has never announced another release date for the film. It says August 24th, 2022, Warner Brothers announced that Sales Lot was losing its April 21st, 2023 release date to Evil Dead Rise in a week. That will have been exactly one year ago, and yet Warner Brothers has never announced another release date for the film.

2:45:37That's right. I see where it was. I don't think it came out. Is there somebody that got canceled in the cast? No idea. It wasn't saying it was like a... Maybe they wanted to reshoot shit. The electric release to drink COVID, and then I'll think that they put it on. Yeah, maybe it sucks. Sometimes they'll get to the end of a film being made, and they're like, this movie sucks. We're going to lose money even getting this out. They've done that before. Oh yeah, tons of times. Yeah, that's a bro. Imagine that business. You're hoping these guys get this together and put together something you can watch.

2:46:09No release? No release? If she shall. Unless you got a guy like James Cameron that always knocks it out of the park. Yeah. How much money are involved in those fucking movies?

2:46:22That's kind of crazy. That's not an ounce at all. Yeah, I was... I forget what it was, but there was a comparison on that that a bunch of these new horror movies they're making. The budgets aren't super high, because there's not a lot of people that don't have to pay a big cast. So they can make them for a lot less, and they're making fuck loads of money at the theater every week. Right, you get 100 million on a big movie and no one sees it. If you do a movie like a superhero movie, you can kind of have anybody play it. As long as you have the real superhero. Look, if it's Spider -Man, you got a new Spider -Man, you can get some good guy that no one's ever heard of, and you'll buy him a Spider -Man if he's good.

2:46:55Yeah, I like the newest Spider -Man guy. He's my favorite one. They're all good, but it's crazy how many they've been. Like when they had that one multiverse with the Doctor Strange, you see all the Spider -Man's? What's the explanation for this again? But there's certain things that we will 100 % watch every time, and that's Spider -Man. That's one of them. The Hulk is another one. Every time they make a new Hulk movie, we're in. You know? Star Wars. Eric Banna was the first one, right? Yep. Banna. And then there was Banna, and then there was Ed Norton. He was the Hulk. And then Mark Ruffalo.

2:47:30I think Mark Ruffalo is the best one. He's the one I most believe is a super genius that becomes psychotic when he gets mad. You know? Yeah. Because he seems to have like, he's got that troubled genius thing down. It's nice. I buy it. Yeah. But he's going to quit now. He's not going to be the Hulk. So they need a new Hulk. Who? Tony.

2:47:59You went like me when I'm angry. I'm like, I'm not. Yeah. Who's going to be the new Hulk? But some of them will do it, and you'll buy into it 100%. As long as it's a good Hulk movie, the good Hulk origin story. You know what I'm amazed that they never did anything with? The Watchmen. What? Yeah. They did, but they did the TV show. But the TV show was not the same. Right. They had that one fucking amazing movie. Right. It's one of the best superhero movies ever. Anti -superhero movie. They're all terrible. Right. And it's just like murder and chaos. And it's all crazy fucking movie, man. Like you could, you'd have a really hard time making the Watchmen today.

2:48:43I don't know. Because I mean, look at Deadpool. Deadpool is pretty like, not as much as the Watchmen. The Watchmen, they're all evil. Like everyone's a bad guy. Like a lot of people are, that, that, they're superheroes are evil. And they kill a lot of people. And then you see his big, blue dick. He's a Dr. Manhattan's big, blue dick. You wouldn't be able to show a big, blue dick today. People get mad. That was such a weird thing. It was such a weird thing. It's just a super muscular, ripped guy who's floating around with a glow around him with a giant hog. Pull that up, dude. Pull up Dr. Manhattan's giant dick.

2:49:22That's trying to take one. Oh, what they, they gave, put him a G -string now? Come on. That was part of the thing that like he could just show you his dick and you still had to listen. Because he was Dr. Manhattan. He was literally a god. So that one, just, he's hogged. It's kind of crazy though, that we had decided that that's not good. You couldn't have that. It's also kind of crazy that he had sexual relationships with human beings after that, right? Like, well, look at that one. We've got little bikini shorts on. What are you just, the circle? Why are you doing that? Why are you hiding his cock?

2:49:55You know what it is? That's a wallpaper for your iPhone. The problem with the one that they had that was on Amazon or whatever it was, was it the dude who played Dr. Manhattan, which is a regular dude? He wasn't jacked enough. Like, you have to be preposterous. And you have to look like that guy with a suit on. See, that's the guy that they had in the Amazon show. Like, sorry buddy. I don't like his forehead. Who cares? He looks like a regular guy. He looks like a guy who does CrossFit. But then Dr. Manhattan looks like a god. It's a badass. Yeah, I mean, that's not a human being. Like, you can't have him in a t -shirt.

2:50:29You know, the other guy looked like a human, like a normal human, who would be teaching at Soul Cycle. It's just right there, John Cena teasing his rumors onto that. Yeah, up a little more. Right there, right there. I mean, this could have been for many times. Yeah. Yeah, this was supposed to be part of the show. Okay, but that makes sense. You'd be so good. He's built like Dr. Manhattan. Yeah, like, literally. That's what Dr. Manhattan's supposed to look like. That's why you can't have a regular guy. And you also got to make him fucked up too. You got to make his eyes glow. You got to make his skin glow.

2:51:06He's got to look ridiculous. Like, he's not supposed to be there. Like, something from another realm. You can't have a regular guy with a t -shirt on. You're changing what it is. Like, you can't have the thing. And now he's just got a little eczema. But do you think they should bring the dick back? Or having a fanny pack back? Let's go. Let's fucking go. Bring back Dr. Manhattan's cock. If you can't handle it, you shouldn't be watching. Do you not know what the dick looks like? He knows it looks like. It's so funny though. But why are we pretending you can't show that? It's so weird. We can't show that anymore.

2:51:39We can't show it now. But they wouldn't. Here's the thing. They did that. Isn't that weird? That is weird. That as time goes on, you think people would relax more about that stuff. Do you know, I was going to bring this up before we were talking about porn theaters. Do you know that when deep throat came out, regular people went to go see it. Like, it was a movie, including Johnny Carson. Like, Johnny Carson was in line talking about the movie. And like, the interviewed him outside of a theater. Yeah. Like, it was the first time that they had made a pornographic, pornographic movie and made it like a cinematic movie and tricked people into going and watching this like it's a real movie.

2:52:23Wow. See if you can find that. I would love to see what Johnny said about it. Almost a wonderful film. Weird wacky wild. We're looking at the, uh, jerked off right from me. The wiki here. It says it. It was like a thing for a minute. Upper middle class people were going to see it. Yeah. See, the film's popularity helped launch a brief period of upper middle class interest in explicit pornography referred to by Ralph Blumenthal of the New York Times as Pornos chic. Several mainstream celebrities admitted to have seen deep throat, including Martin Scorsese, Brian Dupalma, Truman Capote, Jack Nicholson, and Johnny Carson.

2:53:02Spiro Agnew, Frank Sinatra, Philip Dresman, and Louis Dürford. I don't know who those folks are. Barbara Walters mentions having seen the film in their autobiography. Audition, a memoir, and Jimmy McMillan considered it to be his favorite film. Who's that guy? Who's that guy? Well, that's my favorite movie. He's an American political. Go back to what that said before. Oh, American political activist and Vietnam War veteran. He's the rent is too high. He was a candidate, perennial candidate in New York City. Oh, he's the rent is too high. Oh, that guy's the hilarious. That guy was hilarious. Okay.

2:53:40Um, he's just saying, wall shit. In 2006, a censored version of the film was released on DVD for fans of pop culture and those wishing to own a non -x -rated copy of the infamous movie. Deepthroat was the first film to be included into inducted rather into the XRCO Hall of Fame. What did you scroll up there, Jimmy? Uh, the revenue. Oh, estimates of the film's total revenues have varied widely. Numbers as high as 600 million equivalent to 4 .2 billion today have been sent out. Which would make Deepthroat one of the highest grossing films of all time with an average ticket price of $5, which is $34 .98 today.

2:54:20Box office, uh, takings of 600 million would imply 120 million admissions and unrealistic figure. Although subsequent sales of the films on home, on home video certainly brought additional revenue, the FBI's estimates that the film produced an income of approximately 100 million, which is 700 million today. Maybe closer to the truth. Wow. So it's where she is, they were doing research, are they alright? Oh yeah, research. It's just doing research. In that wild, though, that like that style, much culture can just shift and change on a whim. People can just decide that like hardcore pornography, hey, let's go, uh, see a wacky film.

2:55:05Let's go watch someone in soccer cock until they choke. But they, they, it's always a thing though, right? Why can we see real violence in the film, but we can't handle real sex? Right? You can see a film. I mean, how many major films, how many Tarantino films, you see people get shot in the face. Some of them are horrific, like, uh, hateful eight. Like there's, there's some scenes in that movie like, oh my god, there's so many movies like that. So many movies where you can see horrific violence, but you can't have actual sex. Religion. Is that what it is? 100%. I think people freak out about watching people fuck.

2:55:52They freak out about watching someone fuck on screen. Horses. But it's just seeing actual intercourse, even between two people that love each other. Nobody wants to see that. You want it to like simulated. They're in bed together, but for some reason it's sheet over them. And they're kissing and she's wrapping her arms around with everything's close up. So you know what's going on, but you don't actually see it happening. Whereas we don't do that with violence. Like a guy turns a corner, he points the gun and the guy, and you just see the gun go off and then the guy's dead. And you know he's dead.

2:56:21You don't have to see it. No, you see it. You see the gun get shot. And then interesting. Kind of weird. I really think it's religion because like look at how many people, you know, don't have sex before marriage or. Very few. Very few. And it's very few. Right, but they're all those people that are for or against that kind of stuff. Still have no problem with violence and war. Well, not necessarily because there's a lot of atheists that are anti -bornography. A lot of people think it exploits women. There's some people that are making money off of it. There's not the women. You take these people that are damaged and you expose them to the world in this weird, vulnerable way.

2:57:00And they don't know any better. And there's a lot of thoughts about the people have about pornography in general and people that are not religious. So it's not that religion that pornography is not controversial to like a lot of people. It's just it's just a weird thing where films are allowed to show certain things but not actual sex. Right. Like even if you just CGI did, like what if you had these people and they wore green suits on and they they you would never show that. Even if you know that that's fake sex because then the actors were not forced to have sex with each other. They've faked it and then they used CGI to make it look very was intercourse and you could see penetration.

2:57:39Everybody would be like, what the fuck are you showing me? It's weird, right? Well, me my pornography is like this massive part of the internet. Like just a giant chunk of all the things that people are all the internet traffic is pornography. Do you remember that movie Brown Bunny? No. That was a Vincent Gallo movie where Vincent Gallo had an actual sex scene in the movie. Yeah, what's that girl's name? Chloe Sravindiji. You know that girl? Really good actress. How old are you? How long ago? Quite a while ago. It was like, can I guess? 2002? Wait a year was it? Well, I was looking at the history of the obscenity rules and where this came from.

2:58:21People were first starting to make film, we're trying to push the limits of it. And this is one of the first ones according to the thing I was just reading that did it. Like 1897 I think this was made. It's called Carmen Carmencita I think. It's a very short film of a woman dancing. But what's problem here is like you can see your ankles. Oh wow. And that's obscene apparently. Oh wow, because she's spinning around. She's wild. And her dress is a little too short here. That's hilarious. It's like not touching the ground. Now imagine showing them Lizzo. There would go what happened? Wap. But yet still.

2:58:59Sex in movies. So what year was Brown Bunny? He doesn't, he fucked this bunny? No, I don't think it started off with a white bunny. I don't think I saw the film. 2003. 2003. I don't think I saw the film. But I remember people went to see it and they were furious that there was like an actual blowjob scene. Oh okay. Yeah. How did they do that? Actual blowjob. Like she actually done Cox, done mouth. Nope. Wow. Nope. Real actor, real actor. Real actor. But isn't it kind of crazy that when you're seeing something like like people do that, people like that. They do it all the time. But you know, you could pretend to see it in a film.

2:59:45Like if she just started going down on them and you saw the back of her head and you just close up on his face, that's happened a million times in movies. Nobody has a problem with that. That's like make you slightly uncomfortable. But at least you're not seeing it. But to actually see it, people are like, this is crossing a line. We're weird. Really weird. We're so weird. Humans are so weird. If you were observing us, if you're from another planet, you're observing us like, why are they so comfortable with violence? And they're so weird about sex when it comes to like seeing it. Well, it's also United States compared to other countries.

3:00:20Right. I mean, the other countries have tits on the news. You know? Right. England, you always have like a page of their newspaper that was like, girls were topless. Yeah. But that's still very different than putting in their films. They've still had violent films. Right. But they don't have actual sex. Like in a wild kind of weird. Asia with pixelation, you know? That's really weird. That's really weird. Is that what country is that? It's Japan. Japan. Japan, so Japan, you can't see pubes. You can't see genitals. You can't see genitals insertion. Yeah. So everything's pixelated out. Right. That's why how technical porn came about because they could show insertion.

3:01:03I think it's just penis. I don't know. Is that where technical porn was? That's what I was always told. It might be an urban legend, but I was told. Always told. How many times have you been told that a lot of times? But yeah, I think so. I think I had something to do with the censorship there because it wasn't a penis inserting. Do they still have those censorship laws? I want to say yes. Wow. Because most of the porn doesn't come from Japan. Isn't that crazy though that you say like people get too wild to see it actually go in there? Right. You just show most of it. Don't show it going. That'll be the downfall of society.

3:01:42Yeah. Well, it pixelated out the dicks. It's weird. So strange. It's so strange. Can I remember the first time I saw that, I was like, what is that? Why is there pixels? I thought somebody just uploaded it and did it. You know, anything. I thought I was just headed it. Like to make it like so you could put it on the internet. Like what did you do? It's very weird. Very strange. But I guess you could fake it that way. You know, that's like we were talking about like the two actors if they wore green suits and you see G .I. You could just fake the pixels. You know, nobody else knows it's an actual dick.

3:02:19You could just do a lot of that and he's limping. It's just pretend. You know? It's just what people allow and don't allow is so odd. It's so odd. You know, in some country, I mean, just think about Sharia law, right? Think about some countries where women have to be covered. Yeah. And then in other countries, nothing. That's hot though. I always, you know, that's something you put in the search once in a while in Port and Hub. You know, like girls wearing like the things. I think that's very dangerous to even admit. You imagine to make those films? Is what Duncan Trussell was telling me? No, no.

3:03:04Imagine making those films. Oh, yeah. If you're a woman and you make one of those films, I'd imagine like they are very mad at you. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. And that's also happening in 2023. What a wild time to be alive, sir. Scary times. It's definitely not unexciting. It's just so fraught with peril and terrible possibilities. Do you think about it all the time or no? I do. I mean, like I said, I've been really thinking about end of times all the time, you know, just... I got the question for you. Protect family. Why don't you look into Jesus? I went through that. I grew up that way. And I'm glad to be out of that.

3:03:54It would be amazing if that was the answer. Yeah. It would be amazing if the aliens came too. That would be nice. If you guys are going to come, it's like, if you're really going to prevent the world from falling apart, it's probably a good time. No, it was a good time. I don't know if you're going to see how we sort this out. Oh, yeah. What is this? Here we go. We'll end it with this.

3:04:34The best part is the beginning though, Jimmy. Oh, I was just sort of... I'll stand out here. There you go. Okay. All right, let's wrap this up. Killed Tony on YouTube every Monday. Yes. You guys have two weeks off. That's gotta be nice. Yes, taking a little break. It's great. It goes.

3:04:52Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

3:05:17It's good. What?

3:05:23What? She's going to a chocolate version. Oh, my God. Here we go. Here we go. Oh, my God. There's a lot of covers of it. That's good enough. Give me the genus Joplin. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. Please.

3:05:45Is that hers? That sounds like he'll hold on. I think that was him. That's him? Yeah, that's how I like him. Where's the genus Joplin version? It's just a... They might have tricked me on YouTube. Maybe she sings in it. That seemed a little different. It says genus Joplin version. Okay. Keep it going. Let's see. What's your pick up her that could just be what it is? Yeah, the finger from your cigarette. Your hands are shaking while your body swears. No, that's him. Yeah, yeah. I almost think I'm going to. Keep it going though. Maybe he's not going to hurt her. That's him. You write it for her?

3:06:31Maybe. It says Larry Norman. Yeah, so I thought I'd stop. The genus Joplin version. Let's see what goes on.

3:07:05Maybe it was a message to genus Joplin.

3:07:12Totally. That's what it is. Yeah. You say you're going to be a superstar. But you never hung around and out. And find a way you really are.

3:07:26You saw some slaps. I mean, that's kind of the genus Joplin story. Yeah. However, genus songs were way better than that. Yeah. You know, that lady. Okay, let's end with this. Play Take a Little Piece of My Heart. This is to me when you think about like all times soulful songs. Like that lady's voice was a haunting. It had so much depth and emotion.

3:08:06And this is like a quintessential 1960s rock and roll song.
