Host Shocked When Rubio Says What No Other Politician Will Admit

26:07I just have the most moral position. It's not that moral when as an anti-war person, you don't do anything as people are oppressed, as the bad guys continue to expand, as they spread terror and have their proxies go across the world. So you can either be, there's the anti-war sort of libertarian version of it, or you can be what the Democrats became, which is we'll just say words. Oh, if we say words, that has some sort of meaning. Don't, no, stop. And none of it means anything. And the reason they hate Trump is Trump says what he's going to do, and he goes ahead and does it. And this video, this is audio only, actually, But Trump was asked about the impacts around what could happen with the war.

26:49And I thought his answer here, this is absolute primo, number one, top of the charts, Trump watch. About the political impacts of this. I mean, I have to do what's right. You know, political, I'm sure everybody has concern. I have to do what's right. I can't say that, you know, gee, I don't want to have any impact on oil prices for three or four weeks or two months. and we're going to let Iran have a nuclear weapon to blow up the entire East and beyond, right? Because, you know, they were going to blow up the Middle East. If I didn't terminate the Obama horrible deal, the Iran nuclear deal, let's go, if I didn't terminate that in my first term, they would have already had a nuclear weapon and they would have used it immediately upon getting it.

27:35Guys, that answer is perfect. And the reason it's perfect is the question was about the political calculation, right? Are you worried about the politics of going in? What could happen to you? In essence, what could happen to you and the Republicans politically? Donald Trump, and I quote, I have to do what's right. Isn't that what you would want from any leader? Now, that doesn't mean that they're gonna always, you're gonna always agree with them on what's right. It doesn't necessarily mean that when they say they're gonna do what's right, that it's gonna work out the way they want it to do. But as I keep saying, Donald Trump at this point deserves our trust.

28:11Donald Trump deserves, he's been directionally right about all this stuff for 45 plus years. So maybe he's right about this. And the fact that he even there within that, he says, you know what? And what could happen? The reason I can't worry about what could happen politically is yeah, for two or three months, gas prices could go up. He's being honest, right? They're up 35 cents as we just addressed. But he's saying that's the price to pay to make sure that this evil nihilistic genocidal regime will not exist anymore. That's the calculation he's made. And then he laid out plans with incredible people like Hegseth and Rubio and all the way down to do this thing basically in 15 days.

28:53So let's pause on around for a second. We're gonna talk about Prolon and then we'll get to what Trump is. He's already moving on to the next thing. I mean, this guy, he is playing chess at a series. This guy's playing like, do people do cocaine and then play chess? He's doing coked up chess. That's what the guy's doing. We'll talk about Cuba in just a sec. Long work weeks and packed weekends can leave you feeling run down.

He's looking around at the world and he's going, where have things really been screwed up and what can I do?

30:40And I think he's also looking at a window that could be closing a little more rapidly than he likes, right? He needs to rack up major wins over the next couple of months so that the midterms don't go the wrong way. Because if they do, he's going to be lame duck. You will see Republicans jumping off the ship. The Democrats will try to impeach him and all of those things. So he's doing as much as he can very quickly. So what did he do? He did Venezuela, took the file, threw it out the window. We got Maduro. We're now working with their energy companies and there's some good stuff happening. We're dealing with Iran right now.

31:09we shall see what happens. And then he's going, all right, what's next? Well, it says Cuba. Let's find out about that. Here's Trump talking to Peter Doocy over on Fox about what is happening with Cuba right now. When you say Cuba is next, is Cuba, whatever you do with the military there, it seems like something. Will that look more like Iran or Venezuela? Can't tell you that. I can tell you that they're talking to us. It's a failed nation. They have no money, they have no oil, they have no nothing. They have nice land. They have nice landscape. I do believe I'll be the honor of having the honor of taking Cuba.

31:51That'd be good. That's a big honor. Taking Cuba. Taking Cuba in some form, yeah. Yeah, in some form. Taking Cuba in some form. I don't know, making sure that the communist leadership of Cuba that has completely decimated the country is not going to be in power anymore. And this is something that is very near and dear to many of the people that live right here in Miami, where I am. And he's just saying it, he's saying it. And actually the questions were all totally good by Ducey. You know, is this gonna be more like Venezuela or Iran? And Trump's like, well, we'll, you know, we'll see what's what.

32:22I think it's going to be far more, it's much smaller. It's on our half of the world, you know, et cetera, et cetera. Like it's gonna be a lot easier in a certain sense. There isn't gonna be like, we're not gonna have to spend two weeks blowing apart a Cuban military or anything like that. Like this thing is going to be fairly easy. But here's Trump talking about how we are talking to Cuba right now about making some sort of deal. Now, the question is, what does the deal mean? Like, is Cuba going to become a state? I don't think so. But is there going to be some sort of way that the communists will head on out and that it will open up Cuba in a much more pro-Western, pro-capitalist way?

32:56Take a look. You're talking to Cuba. What do you want to hear from them? And what is that risk for them? I am holding Cuba. Cuba's a failed nation. Cuba also wants to make a deal. And I think we will pretty soon either make a deal or do whatever we have to do. We have a lot of great people that happen to vote for Trump. Not that that matters, but we have a lot of great people from Cuba that were violently and viciously thrown out of the country and worse if families were killed. And so we're talking to Cuba, but we're going to do Iran before Cuba. And again, again, the guy is, we're never gonna have a president that is more honest or clean or clear about this stuff.

33:37You know, even when he's like, yeah, we're talking to them, we're negotiating, you know, maybe it'll be something else, meaning maybe it'll be militarily. But there's no reason for it to be militarily done if the Cuban government is willing to play ball. And by the way, there are a lot of signs that they are. Listen to this from CBS, this from this morning. The Cuban government is planning to allow Cuban nationals who live abroad, including in the US, to invest in companies on the island, a top government official told NBC News in an interview that aired Monday as the country faces economic collapse and immense pressure from the Trump administration.

34:10Cuba is open to having a fluid commercial relationship with U.S. companies and also with Cubans residing in the U.S. and their descendants, Deputy Prime Minister Oscar Perez-Olivia Fraga said in an interview with the outlet. He added that the country is open to not only small investments, but also large investments, particularly in infrastructure. Fraga indicated that the new policy would be announced Monday night. It marks a notable shift for the country, which has had a largely state-controlled economy for decades and heavily restricted residents from starting private businesses until 2021. The policy change comes as Cuba grapples with the collapsing energy grid and bouts of public protest.

34:47The Trump administration threatened steep tariffs earlier this year on any country that ships oil to Cuba, choking off the country's access to petroleum and leading to fuel shortages. So this is rather extraordinary. We have had a communist run country for decades that hundreds of thousands, can we get the numbers? How many Cubans have fled, what are the numbers? How many Cubans have fled Cuba over the last couple of decades that ended up, mostly they ended up in Florida, but into America. It's hundreds of thousands of people for sure. But a communist controlled country that is failing across the board, that suddenly Donald Trump is like, well, maybe we'll have to take military action.

35:27suddenly they're opening up their markets. And suddenly they're like, yeah, got people, Cubans who have left, who don't even live in our country, they can invest. And we'd like to fix our infrastructure because communism doesn't work and we're gonna need some outside money. And on top of everything else, they are having massive energy problems right now because we've put on the pressure. And when we put the pressure on, the people then are going to be less happy with the communists in power. Here are residents in Cuba but talking about the rolling blackouts that they're suffering from right now, right?

35:58This is happening right now.

36:34All right. All right. So rolling blackouts, they can't do much. Their energy system is crippled. The leaders, the communist leaders are suddenly saying, let's take outside investment. Like the Cuba thing is going down. There is every reason to believe that Rubio has wanted this for a long time, but that Trump is on board too, and that we can help that place. We could help rebuild it. It would be good for American companies. And it would be good for American companies. It would be good for Cubans that live there and that live here. By the way, it's about a million Cubans that have fled the communist regime probably since around the 70s, around Scarface to now, that have helped build America because they're good people who just needed to be unleashed to do good things.

37:15And that's not how it works in a communist system. But let's continue with things that are going on in that area of the world. Listen to this truth from Donald Trump. Wow, Venezuela defeated Italy tonight, 4-2 in the world baseball semifinal. They are looking really great. Good things are happening to Venezuela lately. I wonder what this magic is all about. Statehood 51, anyone? So, I mean, we don't have to spend too much time on this one now. But do you see Donald Trump? He's not trying forever wars. He's trying to fix the world. He's trying to end all of the things that went haywire post-World War II and all the communist regimes and bad guys, basically, all over the world that were running countries that weren't going well.

37:57And then we come in and we start doing things. Next thing you know, we'll see what happens. Well, Venezuela's playing the United States. So I have to tell you, I'm rooting against Venezuela tonight. That's right, there you go. And it's in Miami. So we will see. And we've got a lot of Venezuelans here. So there could be some partying in the streets. We've got a lot of Americans here, could be partying in the streets. We've got a lot of Venezuelans that are Americans here. So there's good things happening. That's the point. But okay, Venezuela, Cuba, wrap up the Iran thing. Like Trump could just get win after win after win.

38:28You saw them playing dominoes. My sense is that Donald Trump is doing some foreign policy dominoes right now. But let's shift gears altogether. Let's stop talking about international affairs. Let's stop talking about war for just a second. Because the other thing that's going on in the world right now is that we are on this incredible horizon as it relates to AI and how it is so gonna fundamentally change us. You know, for those of you, I'm 49 years old, and I remember a world before this thing. My guys that work here, some of them are in their mid-20s, and they barely remember that world. But think how fundamentally different the world because of the iPhone is versus the pre-iPhone world.

39:07And we can say it was better, it was worse, or whatever else. The next horizon that is right here, the next frontier that we are en route to blazing is the AI revolution. And here is Elon Musk. There was an AI conference. We're gonna play you a couple of videos here. Elon talking about how AI is going to fix so many things so quickly that humans have no idea what's coming. Take a look. We're more likely to be great. And I do think we'll have universal high income. We're basically just issuing money to people, and really just because the output of goods and services will so far exceed the money supply that you know that effectively you have deflation because deflation is just the ratio of the outputs of goods and services to the money supply basically AI and robots are going to make so much stuff and provide so many services that they will actually run out of things to do for the humans Okay, so you really have to think about this.

40:14It's a little, it's complex what he's saying there. The output of services will outpace the money supply, meaning that AI and robots and 3D printing and all of these things will be able to build so many things so quickly, so easily, at scale, so cheaply, that that will rapidly outpace the actual money supply, which could would cause deflation, right? We're always having inflation because we're always spending more than we have because the government's completely inefficient, all of those reasons. But once the AI systems are in place, and yes, I'm not gonna do all the dystopian versions of it right now, but once the systems are in place and we have robots doing things and we can 3D print all of these things, and you have drones dropping things off, that we will be able to build things, quite literally build physical things via digital technology that will outpace the need for money.

41:08That's a rather extraordinary way of looking at what the future might bring. Here's Elon with a bit more on what that could do to the world economy. Okay, this is going to sound pretty crazy. It's okay. We've been talking about crazy. You're a receptive audience to wild prognostications. Yes.

41:38I'd say the economy is 10 times its current size in 10 years. Greater than. Okay.

41:50Yeah, you'd said triple-digit growth in five-plus years from now on GDP and 10x the economy. But in terms of your ability... I feel like that's 10x in roughly 10 years, I feel is actually a fairly comfortable prediction. All right. So what I like about that is you can sort of see him thinking it through, right? He's pausing. He's thinking. He's looking up that the economy could be 10 times what it is in 10 years. Why would that be? Well, he just illustrated that once we get further into this next phase of all of these things, the fact that right now, you know, I have two Teslas. We have two Teslas here.

42:37It is so spectacular. It is, when I drive a conventional car now, if we have to rent a car, if we go travel or whatever, they feel so backwards to me. The Tesla is so spectacular. And he's not even going to be making, he's not making X's and I think S's going forward because they're going to focus more on robo taxis because most people won't even want cars anymore because the robo-taxi will become so ubiquitous you won't even need it. That's one thing. But also he wants to focus more on building optimist robots, which supposedly will be out by the end of next year. And again, there's all the dystopian versions.

43:10You can look at robotics and all the ways that the Skynet will turn on and the Matrix and all of those things. But we're going to have robots in our house and how that will change security and how that will change quite literally literally everything. And the question, you can always be leery of it as I am leery of it. You know, like I've got like an eyebrow up when it comes to some of these things, but you can't fight city hall in some sense. You can't stop progress. So I think the challenge for all of us will be actually the same exact challenge that you have with this thing. The challenge is how do you manage a relationship with the robots, with all of the technology that's coming, which is the same thing we're doing with this.

43:48How do you manage your relationship with your phone? Do Do you stare at it while you're at dinner with someone and pay more attention to that world rather than this world? Is that what you do? What do you do when you're kids, when you just want a moment's peace? I mean, this is the great challenge for every parent in going forward forever now, which is if you want a moment's peace at a restaurant, do you just give your kid the iPhone and let them play Roblox? Is that a reference that makes sense? I think that's something. Roblox, that's something. Like, how are we gonna manage all of these things?

44:14But what he's saying is we are gonna do so much so fast. It's going to make, If you think the world in 2026 is different than the world in say 2000, when we didn't, you know, pre-iPhone, wait till you see what happens in 10 years from now. Let's just go a little bit further with this because Sam Altman, who's the CEO at OpenAI, here he is talking about how our access to information is also going to change things. We see a future where intelligence is a utility like electricity or water and people buy it from us on a meter and use it for whatever they want to use it for. Okay, so that's a little dystopian right there, where intelligence is going to be something you purchase, meaning they're going to have these models that are going to be able to explain everything, and that you would have to purchase it the way you purchase water or other utilities.

45:14Well, that feels kind of dystopian to me, but I'm just putting it out there that that's the direction the world is going in, right? It's happening whether you like it or not. Now, the question is, how do we make sure we do it maturely with the right people in charge, that it doesn't get infected by bad political ideologies or anything else? And that's what brings us to this, which is Anthropic, which is another one of these models. And it's been working, at least potentially working with the government on a few different things. Here's Anthropic CEO Dario Amadai talking to CBS about how they try to be as neutral as possible when he's asked about left-wing bent, you know, basically infecting the AI models.

45:55President Trump has called Anthropic a left-wing, woke company. Is this decision at all driven by ideology? Look, I can't speak for what other parties are doing and what they're doing. But you and you're in Anthropic. Yeah, look, we, but we, we, I think, have tried to be very neutral. We speak up on issues of AI policy where we have expertise. We don't have views. We don't think about general political issues. and we try to work together whenever there's common ground. All right, I said I was trying to avoid the dystopian version of it, but Sam Altman and talking about, you know, intelligence will be turned on and off enough to pay for it.

46:38That's kind of dystopian. This guy strikes me as like five years from now, we find out he really is the bad guy in all of this. We'll find out a little bit more. I should note that the Pentagon wanted to use Anthropic's clawed AI for surveillance and autonomous weapons, and Anthropic refused. So that's when Trump said that Anthropic was a supply chain risk and he blacklisted it from defense use and a whole bunch more. So now OpenAI, which is what Sam Altman is running, is now working with the government. So there's all sorts of ways you can see all this spinning in a million different directions, but it's worth us all knowing a little bit about it right now because it's happening in front of our eyes.

47:17So just one more on this. This is defense undersecretary, Emile Michael, talking about how Anthropic threatened to shut off its AI if they didn't like how it was used by the Pentagon. That would be a problem, right? Like you can't have these companies being more powerful than the Pentagon. Thus, we are not working with them. We're in the middle of negotiations with all the frontier lab companies to more widely deploy their models across the department for all the various use cases. Enterprise, intelligence, war fighting. And then after the Maduro raid, one of the senior executives from Anthropic had called Palantir, who's the prime contractor and Anthropic's a subcontractor in a contract with the Department of War, and asked if their software was used, which is classified information.

48:07and implying that if they didn't like the way it was used in that raid, that we might have a problem and have violated the terms of the contract, which meant that they could shut us off at any time, which was the woe moment, because then we realized we are dependent on this one provider who wants to insert their policy preferences in the middle of an operation, potentially, and harm the warfighter. And that was something that we took extremely seriously at the time. Okay, so I know some of this may feel a little wonky to you or whatever, but this is, I'm telling you guys, this is the next thing.

48:45We can always talk about like the immediate stuff. There's a war now. These are the political fights of the day, Sabac, et cetera, et cetera. But these types of decisions that are being made right now, these are the things that are going to lead us either to a more peaceful, prosperous future, the one that Elon's talking about, or lead us to the sci-fi dystopian version of it, right? Because if these companies get a political bent, a political ideology built into their systems, and then say our military, our Pentagon is using their systems, and then the AI won't let the Pentagon do what it wants to do, or whatever it might be, whatever system they get into, they're working with Amazon.

49:25I'm just making up an example here, but they're working with Amazon and they don't want certain people of certain political ideologies to get things delivered to their house or whatever it might be. And these are all the great challenges ahead of us. And this is where the government that we should all be leery of is gonna have to work with big tech that we should all be leery of. And we should just be paying some attention to it. So let's put a pin in that and come back to the real world right now, which is that what we should all be lined up against right now, most obviously. And it's why yesterday I kept saying on the show, it's a damn shame that so many of these kind of woke right podcasters are constantly attacking Trump.

50:02It's like we should, whatever our differences are, we should be lined up because what we still need to do is defeat the communists and the woke and the gender jihadists and the rest of it. And I believe that we will, it's just going to take a little extra work because we're fighting amongst ourselves. But as you know, this guy, James Tallarico, beat Lady Eyelashes, Jasmine Crockett as Democrat nominee to be Senator from Texas. Hopefully he will not win in the general election. But then, you know, after he got the win, suddenly everyone was showing his old tweets and he's ashamed about his whiteness and God has a penis and a vagina and all of this stuff.

50:41He got asked about some of his old comments yesterday. So we've got white skin gives me and every white American immunity from the virus, but we spread it wherever we go through our words, our actions and our systems. We don't have to be showing symptoms like a white hood or a Confederate flag to be contagious. That's one from 2020. I, of course, looking back at some of these old statements from years ago, would maybe word them differently or communicate them differently. But the values that I hold are still the same. Values that white people are inherently evil, I still hold those. But maybe I would have slightly put an extra comma in or a, you know, dot, dot, dot.

51:23completely absurd, completely absurd and disqualifying. And these are the types of people that should have nothing to do with government or public service or anything else. And that's where we should be all, all of us aiming our ideological fire is that these people should not be in government. They certainly shouldn't. You want to, okay, you want to go be Senator from Vermont, go replace Bernie, right? Like you want to do that fine, but not from Texas, not from Texas. But of course, it's not just Texas that is having some problems. A lot of our countries. A lot of our states are having problems.

51:55They're probably going to end up being their own countries. We haven't talked about this guy in a couple of weeks. Chicago mayor, Brandon Johnson, this guy is just an old fashioned racist who is probably breaking so many laws. It's ridiculous, but nobody goes after him. He keeps saying that the government of Chicago is going to hire people based on the color of their skin. Here they are. Black firefighters. Congratulations. You're getting it. And Whitey, stay home. And what I have done is I'm working with our HR because that's we're hiring rest. As we work to recruit more and more people to become firefighters and particularly young black folks, to your specific question, I've made a commitment to the entire department that I would continue to use my platform to encourage more black young people to go into this profession and also ensuring that our HR...

52:44That's racism. Nobody cares when your house is burning down. Excuse me, excuse me, before you run into my house with the water and everything and save my wife and the cat and the kid, how many black people? You've got 10 firefighters over here. Wait a minute. You only have two black people, eight white people, oh, seven white people and one Asian guy. Sorry, that's not going to cut it. It's completely absurd. It's against everything that America stands for and whether he's going to put it into writing, into law. But like you want to go to, here's what wouldn't be illegal or wouldn't be morally bankrupt.

53:21If you want to go into inner city schools in Chicago and say, boy, there's a lot of problems here. And a lot of you are getting caught up in drugs and shooting and all sorts of things. One thing you could do is become a firefighter. Not talk to them because of their race, but say you could become a firefighter. And if you're a firefighter for X amount of years, you can make this much money. You could retire at this age, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. That would be just fine. But once you say to the fire department itself, we are going to make sure that we have more of this type of person, it is automatically discriminatory against that type of person.

53:53That's how it works. Although that's not quite as crazy as New York City, where the communist jihadist mayor is very excited because they've got their first LGBTQAI plus affairs office person, and here they are together. Today we are not only founding our city's first office for LGBTQIA plus affairs. We are also appointing our first director. This day was a long time coming. It took years of activism from community leaders who recognized how often queer New Yorkers fall through the cracks while attempting to access our city's social services. Why did you laugh at queer New Yorkers fall through the cracks?

54:39Something funny about that. There's something funny about that. So maybe screenshot or just go back. So just to be clear, the lady that appears in the black dress there, that is biologically a man. Look, I know nothing about this person and I'm actually not going to make fun of them or anything else. If that person as an adult decided to live a different way and change what their outward appearance is and if they're happy and functional and all of those things, more power to you. That's just fine. But the absurdity that in 2026, we need an LGBTQAI plus two spirit, whatever, furry office, and that gays are falling through the cracks, whatever, I mean, there is something funny about that.

55:20Like, it's just completely absurd. But why is it really absurd? It's absurd because let's not forget, two weeks ago, Moron Zamboni spoke in a mosque. He spoke in English. And then moments later, the imam got up there and he said this in Arabic. And the killing of the infidels by your sword. How do you think it's going to go for that chick? She might have chopped off her wang, but they're going to come for your head next. That's how it's going to be. But the woke thing has infected everything. I don't know that I saw one freaking movie this year. Did any of you go to the movies once this entire year?

55:57What year did... I saw Downton Abbey in the theater. No, I didn't. I saw it at home. Did anyone go to the movies once this year? Anyone? What'd you see? I actually forgot. You can't remember. Did you go to the movie? Oh, Melania. You saw the Melania movie in the theater? That's perfect. I assure you it didn't win any Oscars. Did you go to the movie once this year? You saw a scary movie. You can't remember what it was. And you did not go to the movies once this year. I did not go to the movies once this year. What a tragedy. They took, COVID really, but it was everything and how political Hollywood's become.

56:26They've just ruined everything. Anyway, the Oscars were the other night and here's Spanish actor Javier Barden and he's so edgy, he's so edgy, he talked about Palestine. I can't believe it. No to war and free Palestine.

56:48I love it. All the gays of Hollywood applauding Palestine where they'd all be killed, bunch of morons. But instead, Javier, instead of doing no to war, Okay, thank you. That's a very thoughtful argument and free Palestine. Okay, kill those 10 million Jews. That's fine. How about you could have done it this way? You remember this, Golden Globe's Ricky Gervais a couple years ago. If ISIS started a streaming service, you'd call your agent, wouldn't you? So if you do win an award tonight, don't use it as a platform to make a political speech, right? You're in no position to lecture the public about anything.

57:22You know nothing about the real world. most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg so if you win right come up accept your little award thank your agent and your god except their agent is their god however but that's of course like just stop with all of stuff all of this the reason we're all tuning out is because we've just had it with all of this garbage and I I don't know I can't off the top of my head I can't think of any movie that Javier Bardem was in was he in anything that I've seen that I might know, I don't know, whatever. It's just like, but I wouldn't want to see a movie with you in it.

57:56It's sort of why, even though I'm kind of over all the Marvel movies, every time I see Mark Ruffalo, I want to puke. What was Barden in? Dune. Oh, he was in Dune, which I tried to watch. Dune, I'm a sci-fi guy. Dune inspired Star Wars. I tried to watch it, I kid you not, 15 times, and I could not make it through the first hour. It's slow and boring. I'm sorry. It is. Yes, I know, he had something up his nose and he was complaining about something. Yeah, I saw it. However, I will give credit where credit is due. There's a girl by the name of Jessie Buckley who accepted an award for something. I don't know what she was in or what she awarded.

58:35She was best actress. Well, good for her. I don't know what movie it was. But I thought here she just had a nice moment. So if I'm going to smack these people around, I'll at least offer up a nice moment to balance it out. You, Fred, I love you, man. I love you. You're the most incredible dad. You're my best friend, and I want to have 20 ,000 more babies with you. I do. I do. And Isla, my little girl who is eight months, who has absolutely no idea what's going on and is probably dreaming of milk, but this is kind of a big deal. And I love you, and I love being your mom, and I can't wait to discover life beside you.

59:13Chloe and Maggie, you, to get to know this incandescent woman and journey to understand the capacity of a mother's love is the greatest collision of my life. It's Mother's Day in the UK today.

59:41Yeah, pretty good. Like talking about being a mother, talking about how she wants to bang her husband. People are into that kind of stuff. Like grow a family, honor her own mother. Like all of that is good. You know, interestingly, if you notice when they flashed to the crowd there, when they showed one of those women, Steven Spielberg was sitting right behind one of those women. And imagine Steven Spielberg with the incredible career that that man has had, like made more great movies than probably anyone in Hollywood history to have to sit in a room in an industry that he built as these clowns, these ridiculous LARPing revolutionaries applaud free Palestine.

1:00:17The guy who did Schindler's List, right? Like it's so profoundly disgusting. So how do we end today's show? Well, it shouldn't be the navel gazing of Hollywood. What it should be about life is that you should take the reins of your own life. You should look outside of yourself and you might find something good. This is from my, I think we've shown you this once or twice a portion of this, but this is from what I think is Jordan Peterson's single best speech ever. I was honored to be in the room for it. It was during the ARC conference in London in 2023. Take a look. That's what's happening to the young people that we see who are adrift.

1:00:55They're taught to be nothing but self-conscious, to do nothing but think about their immediate needs, to refer to themselves as the locus of all things. And there's nothing you could do that would make them more miserable. It's identical with the instruction in misery. And you want to be outside yourself, serving a higher purpose. And maybe you're cynical about that, but you can think about it technically. Why do you bring a fork to the table? Well, so that you can put a plate beside it. And why do you put a plate at the table? So that you can set the table to serve your family, to share food, to bring together the people you love in something approximating harmony as a microcosm of the entire cosmic order.

1:01:40And you can replicate that at every level of complexity all the way up to what's at the pinnacle. And that's all real. And so is what's at the pinnacle. and we've forgotten all of that and as a consequence of forgetting that we've forgotten the responsibility that we need to bear in our life to make our lives bearable and we've forgotten the meaning and the adventure and the purpose and the significance and the earned self-regard that goes along with that sacrificial attitude and we've forgotten to tell our children the same thing and we could remember we could remember who we are we can remember who we are and that's what this conference was for to remind people everyone who attends who you are right you're the I gotta tell you guys I've done I think it was we did 120 shows Jordan and I for that year and a half when we were on tour together I've done a million appearances with him in all sorts of different venues I was with him on and off throughout the days of that conference.

1:02:47That was the single best speech I've ever seen him give. We have the full speeches on our channel, which we are going to link to in the description if you want to watch the full thing. It is absolutely incredible. And I'll also tell you something, a little insider baseball on that. Jordan's running around doing a conference. He's doing media the entire time. He's doing all of these shows. He's pulled in a million different directions. He's having dinner, sitting down with donors or whatever it might be, just every, did not have a second, right? And then he gets up there and he gives that speech.

1:03:11There's no teleprompter there. There is no teleprompter. There are no notes on the floor or anything else that is that is someone at the pinnacle of their game uh being the best that they can be to explain to people how they can be the best they can be and we could use a little more of that and by the way we're gonna need a little more of that you know to connect this to everything we've done on the show today politics world affairs a little crazy but trump is trying to order them to the best of his ability ai stuff we are on this freaking horizon that is going to change the world in ways we don't know.

1:03:46So it might be important. It might be incumbent upon us to be the best we could be. That would be pretty good, right? And then, well, how did we end the show before that? Well, we still got all the wacky lefties to deal with. And what's the best way to confront them? Well, yeah, we can mock them and we can expose them and all that. But perhaps it's bettering ourselves that actually is the ultimate antidote. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is our program. We got a post-game show coming up in 30 seconds, rubinreport.locals.com. See you tomorrow.
