1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:00,920
Everybody poops.

2
00:00:01,220 --> 00:00:02,900
Adam Curry, John C.

3
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:03,360
Dvorak.

4
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:05,480
It's Thursday, March 19th, 2026.

5
00:00:05,580 --> 00:00:06,900
This is your award-winning Kipp on Asian

6
00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:09,360
Media Assassination episode 1852.

7
00:00:10,100 --> 00:00:11,680
This is no agenda.

8
00:00:12,860 --> 00:00:14,600
One more for the Kipper.

9
00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:17,000
And we're broadcasting live from the heart of

10
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,920
the Texas hill country here in FEMA region

11
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,600
number 6.

12
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,040
In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

13
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,980
And I'm Mimi Smith Dvorak.

14
00:00:25,060 --> 00:00:27,660
And on a globe, I'm between the 48th

15
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:28,760
and 49th parallel.

16
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:28,940
Wow.

17
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:32,160
It's crackpot and buzzkill.

18
00:00:32,380 --> 00:00:33,360
In the morning.

19
00:00:34,540 --> 00:00:35,940
And it's wet.

20
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:36,840
You're wet.

21
00:00:37,340 --> 00:00:38,860
You're soaking wet.

22
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,000
We don't even say anything about it.

23
00:00:41,020 --> 00:00:42,080
It's just another day.

24
00:00:42,340 --> 00:00:43,320
Yeah, yeah.

25
00:00:43,500 --> 00:00:44,460
100% humidity.

26
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:44,980
Yeah.

27
00:00:45,140 --> 00:00:45,620
I didn't even know.

28
00:00:45,660 --> 00:00:48,440
You told me before we started that there

29
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,080
was a storm in Hawaii that is now

30
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,700
over your domain.

31
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:55,600
Your neck of the woods.

32
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,000
The start of it, we do get one

33
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,340
day that that globe in the sky may

34
00:01:00,340 --> 00:01:01,400
appear on Saturday.

35
00:01:01,620 --> 00:01:04,260
And then we've got rain forever.

36
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:08,060
We have rain that's just coming.

37
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:09,760
And it's so slow.

38
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,000
And it's going to be lots of inches.

39
00:01:12,220 --> 00:01:13,260
And it's also quite warm.

40
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,660
So, that means all the snow that we

41
00:01:15,660 --> 00:01:16,500
had was going to melt.

42
00:01:16,620 --> 00:01:17,800
So, we'll be flooding too.

43
00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:18,700
It's great.

44
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:22,040
So, what is the actual appeal of living

45
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,180
in Washington state?

46
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,440
It's good for your skin.

47
00:01:26,220 --> 00:01:26,680
Oh, yeah.

48
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,900
But so is pharaoh.life, you know.

49
00:01:30,660 --> 00:01:32,640
That stuff is good for your skin too.

50
00:01:32,740 --> 00:01:33,860
I don't know if you need to live

51
00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:35,420
in Washington state for it.

52
00:01:35,960 --> 00:01:37,960
Oh, it's got beautiful trees.

53
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,440
And, yeah.

54
00:01:40,580 --> 00:01:41,040
That's it.

55
00:01:41,220 --> 00:01:41,620
Okay.

56
00:01:42,220 --> 00:01:43,280
There you go, everybody.

57
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,320
You've got income tax now.

58
00:01:45,420 --> 00:01:47,100
You've got libtards running around.

59
00:01:47,220 --> 00:01:48,340
But you've got nice trees.

60
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,460
Yeah, nice trees.

61
00:01:49,460 --> 00:01:53,240
So, not once, but twice this week did

62
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,160
JCD call me.

63
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,760
That was quite exciting.

64
00:01:58,860 --> 00:02:01,600
The first one was, I think, Tuesday.

65
00:02:02,740 --> 00:02:04,160
He's like, hey, it's Dvorak.

66
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,660
Like, okay, you know, we have a caller

67
00:02:07,660 --> 00:02:09,020
ID on these phones.

68
00:02:09,340 --> 00:02:10,640
In case you didn't know.

69
00:02:11,220 --> 00:02:15,800
And, yeah, I said, well, okay, yeah, just

70
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:16,420
checking in.

71
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,220
I said, well, are you getting out tomorrow?

72
00:02:18,220 --> 00:02:18,860
He says, yeah, yeah.

73
00:02:19,140 --> 00:02:21,360
He says, it was so sweet.

74
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:23,620
He says, I'm really sorry.

75
00:02:25,180 --> 00:02:26,520
He keeps apologizing.

76
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,180
He said, stop apologizing.

77
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,520
No, but I'm really sorry.

78
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,100
You have to do one more show with

79
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:31,360
Mimi.

80
00:02:32,980 --> 00:02:34,820
I'm like, wow, wow.

81
00:02:34,820 --> 00:02:35,680
Yeah, that would be John.

82
00:02:35,820 --> 00:02:36,140
Yeah.

83
00:02:36,780 --> 00:02:41,040
And then yesterday, like, I've got salmon in

84
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:41,460
the oven.

85
00:02:41,740 --> 00:02:43,300
Tina was out helping a friend, so I'm

86
00:02:43,300 --> 00:02:43,960
cooking dinner.

87
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,660
And salmon, you kind of keep your eye

88
00:02:46,660 --> 00:02:47,000
on it.

89
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,820
And he said, let's test the gear.

90
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:51,700
Let's test the gear.

91
00:02:52,540 --> 00:02:54,800
I guess he was setting up the famed

92
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,780
Nook at Jay's house.

93
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,700
And it was so classic, as if nothing

94
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:00,240
has changed.

95
00:03:00,620 --> 00:03:02,700
So he plugs in, he connects to the

96
00:03:02,700 --> 00:03:03,280
clean feed.

97
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,540
And I can clearly hear that it's not

98
00:03:06,540 --> 00:03:08,620
the microphone he's talking into.

99
00:03:08,820 --> 00:03:10,480
It's like something else is on.

100
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:11,040
No, it's not.

101
00:03:11,060 --> 00:03:12,040
I'm talking right into it.

102
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,280
Nothing has changed.

103
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,200
It's the same.

104
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,460
John, I'm telling you.

105
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:18,600
And I can hear myself booming through the

106
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:19,000
speakers.

107
00:03:19,180 --> 00:03:20,220
You got speakers?

108
00:03:20,740 --> 00:03:22,000
Yeah, Jay bought me some speakers.

109
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,120
Could you consider headphones for once, just maybe?

110
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:26,380
Yeah.

111
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,160
And he's like, I'll call you back.

112
00:03:29,980 --> 00:03:31,180
And it turns out there was a webcam

113
00:03:31,180 --> 00:03:32,140
still plugged in.

114
00:03:32,220 --> 00:03:33,000
I'm like, told you so.

115
00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:34,200
Oh, yeah, told me so.

116
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:34,540
Oh, yeah.

117
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,160
Actually, I recorded some of it.

118
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:38,060
I recorded some of it.

119
00:03:38,060 --> 00:03:38,220
Oh, no.

120
00:03:38,340 --> 00:03:39,900
Yeah, let me play a little bit here.

121
00:03:39,940 --> 00:03:40,360
Here we go.

122
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,820
So this is what happens when your wife

123
00:03:42,820 --> 00:03:44,900
and your work wife get together.

124
00:03:45,300 --> 00:03:45,560
Mm-hmm.

125
00:03:45,620 --> 00:03:46,180
Mm-hmm.

126
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,880
Now, that was from the hospital day that

127
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,200
he called me, including this one.

128
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:51,800
I have to go.

129
00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:53,560
It's time for my sponge bath.

130
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,520
So that ended the conversation.

131
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,320
And then, parents, cover your kids' ears.

132
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,020
I can't stand one more fucking Jell-O

133
00:04:02,020 --> 00:04:02,400
cup.

134
00:04:05,700 --> 00:04:06,660
Pretty good, huh?

135
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:08,120
Oh, yeah.

136
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:08,780
That's AI.

137
00:04:08,780 --> 00:04:10,480
We don't need John anymore.

138
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:12,100
Could you tell?

139
00:04:12,220 --> 00:04:13,400
Could you tell it was not John?

140
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,660
I wasn't listening hard enough.

141
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,720
I'm a wife.

142
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:20,100
I've been a wife for so long, my

143
00:04:20,100 --> 00:04:20,860
ears turn off.

144
00:04:22,020 --> 00:04:23,940
Wow, I thought that only happened to husbands.

145
00:04:24,220 --> 00:04:24,840
That's good.

146
00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:25,940
That's very good.

147
00:04:26,740 --> 00:04:29,100
So one question, well, there's a couple of

148
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:29,260
things.

149
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:32,120
But one question that people really would like

150
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,560
to know, and you may not want to

151
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:38,920
answer this, is Mimi your real name?

152
00:04:40,060 --> 00:04:40,280
No.

153
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:41,500
No, it's not.

154
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:41,980
Mm-hmm.

155
00:04:42,460 --> 00:04:47,220
My parents saddled me with the first name

156
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:48,480
is Merrilee Diane.

157
00:04:48,900 --> 00:04:49,680
I like Merrilee.

158
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:50,580
That's a cute name.

159
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,460
No, it's Merrilee Diane.

160
00:04:53,300 --> 00:04:53,800
Well, okay.

161
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,080
I have a middle name as well.

162
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:56,000
It's hyphenated.

163
00:04:56,220 --> 00:04:57,200
I have a middle name.

164
00:04:57,340 --> 00:04:57,580
Okay.

165
00:04:57,700 --> 00:05:00,220
And then, because when I was a little

166
00:05:00,220 --> 00:05:01,760
kid, I could not say it.

167
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,440
Because, you know what, a kid can spit

168
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,260
out Merrilee Diane.

169
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,680
I started calling myself Mimi, and everyone started

170
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,120
calling me Mimi from then on.

171
00:05:09,580 --> 00:05:09,700
Huh.

172
00:05:10,420 --> 00:05:12,140
So you don't like Merrilee?

173
00:05:12,260 --> 00:05:13,900
It has to be Merrilee Diane, but you

174
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:15,120
don't like that at all, obviously.

175
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,360
My name is Merrilee Diane, like my mother

176
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,000
was naming for some southern belle, and she

177
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:20,520
got me.

178
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,300
Well, we all saw the pictures.

179
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,640
Merrilee Diane, mm-hmm.

180
00:05:25,220 --> 00:05:27,820
My mom had blonde, curly hair, and she

181
00:05:27,820 --> 00:05:30,400
was just dark brown eyes, and I am

182
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:31,380
nothing like my mother.

183
00:05:31,380 --> 00:05:34,160
Welcome to the stage, Merrilee Diane.

184
00:05:34,860 --> 00:05:38,240
Put your hands together for Merrilee Diane.

185
00:05:39,660 --> 00:05:41,960
So for political stuff up here, I decided

186
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,680
to use Merrilee when I first ran, because

187
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,600
we already had a city council member.

188
00:05:47,660 --> 00:05:50,480
His name was Sherry, and we had one

189
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,220
named Sissy, and I thought that it sounded

190
00:05:52,220 --> 00:05:53,880
like a bunch of strippers.

191
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,100
So people have been listening to us for

192
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:00,820
the past—what have we done now, four shows?

193
00:06:00,820 --> 00:06:01,900
Is this the fifth show?

194
00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:02,660
Is this the fifth?

195
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:03,420
I think it's the fifth.

196
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,400
No, I think it's just four, because we

197
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,440
missed that first one.

198
00:06:07,580 --> 00:06:09,440
Well, we kind of did an intro on

199
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,240
the first one.

200
00:06:10,820 --> 00:06:10,960
Right.

201
00:06:12,100 --> 00:06:14,240
And I've loved doing this with you, Mimi.

202
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:15,980
I really appreciate you jumping in.

203
00:06:16,580 --> 00:06:20,540
I'd say 98% of No Agenda Nation

204
00:06:20,540 --> 00:06:21,900
loves that you jumped in.

205
00:06:22,220 --> 00:06:24,180
The 2% are always the a-holes,

206
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,580
so I just fight them on Twitter.

207
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,700
Those are the ones I like the best.

208
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:29,920
They're the worst.

209
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,540
Like, I couldn't listen.

210
00:06:31,820 --> 00:06:34,240
There was no deconstruction at all.

211
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,140
Well, they're right.

212
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:35,960
I usually listen two to—yeah.

213
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,780
I usually listen two to three times in

214
00:06:38,780 --> 00:06:38,980
an episode.

215
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:40,300
I had to turn it off.

216
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,300
Like, okay, fine.

217
00:06:42,540 --> 00:06:44,300
You know, a little bit of grace, maybe?

218
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:45,320
Just a tad?

219
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:46,140
Eh.

220
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,240
But the best came from Hollywood Bigwig.

221
00:06:50,380 --> 00:06:52,920
He texted this to me during the Academy

222
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,660
Awards, so that means he wasn't watching.

223
00:06:56,380 --> 00:06:57,340
Dana Brunetti.

224
00:06:58,180 --> 00:07:02,640
He says, I am pretty sure that Mimi

225
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,200
is indeed a spook.

226
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,080
And he takes it one step further.

227
00:07:08,180 --> 00:07:10,120
He says, I don't think anyone's put it

228
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,560
together that she is the anonymous donor.

229
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,900
That you are seronimous of Dogpatch and Laura

230
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:16,580
Slobovia.

231
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,100
And that's how she communicates with John when

232
00:07:20,100 --> 00:07:21,180
she's on assignment.

233
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,900
She doesn't live in Washington.

234
00:07:24,340 --> 00:07:26,060
She's just off on assignment.

235
00:07:26,060 --> 00:07:29,800
Notice there have been no donations from him

236
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,320
since he's been on the show?

237
00:07:34,460 --> 00:07:34,940
Okay.

238
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:35,860
Whatever.

239
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:36,280
Sure.

240
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:37,180
I'll take it.

241
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,180
I thought that was pretty good.

242
00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:40,380
I thought it was pretty good.

243
00:07:41,060 --> 00:07:45,060
Our president has been super hilarious the past

244
00:07:45,060 --> 00:07:45,560
few days.

245
00:07:45,740 --> 00:07:47,460
This just—I saw this this morning.

246
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,300
He was sitting with the prime minister of

247
00:07:51,300 --> 00:07:51,720
Japan.

248
00:07:52,460 --> 00:07:52,940
Okay.

249
00:07:53,020 --> 00:07:53,800
Do you know her name?

250
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,020
I forget what her name is.

251
00:07:55,020 --> 00:07:55,760
Not at all.

252
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,160
And so there's a whole bunch of Japanese

253
00:07:59,160 --> 00:07:59,700
journalists.

254
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,320
And, you know, it's just Japanese on a

255
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:04,560
whole one side of the room.

256
00:08:04,980 --> 00:08:06,020
Let me see if I can get this

257
00:08:06,020 --> 00:08:06,160
here.

258
00:08:09,420 --> 00:08:10,180
Here he goes.

259
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,020
Of course, no.

260
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,060
Japan and the U.S. are very good

261
00:08:17,060 --> 00:08:17,360
friends.

262
00:08:18,380 --> 00:08:19,260
One question.

263
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,820
Why didn't you tell U.S. allies in

264
00:08:23,820 --> 00:08:26,560
Europe and Asia like Japan about the war?

265
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,460
So he says, why didn't you tell U

266
00:08:28,460 --> 00:08:31,200
.S. allies like NATO and Europe and Japan

267
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,120
before you went to war with Iran?

268
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,299
Well, one thing, you don't want to signal

269
00:08:40,299 --> 00:08:41,120
too much.

270
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,780
You know, when we go in, we went

271
00:08:42,780 --> 00:08:43,660
in very hard.

272
00:08:43,660 --> 00:08:46,720
And we didn't tell anybody about it because

273
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,400
we wanted surprise.

274
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,040
Who knows better about surprise than Japan?

275
00:08:52,180 --> 00:08:54,540
Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?

276
00:08:54,740 --> 00:08:55,200
Dude!

277
00:08:56,340 --> 00:08:56,980
Dude!

278
00:08:57,660 --> 00:08:57,960
Dude!

279
00:08:58,660 --> 00:09:00,900
Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor,

280
00:09:01,060 --> 00:09:01,260
huh?

281
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:02,160
Wow.

282
00:09:03,420 --> 00:09:04,620
Wow, that's great.

283
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:05,460
That's good.

284
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,180
It's good.

285
00:09:06,180 --> 00:09:09,240
And no sooner had we talked about it

286
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,860
on Sunday than the president did exactly what

287
00:09:13,860 --> 00:09:14,700
we thought he would do.

288
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,500
I'm going to remind everybody what he did

289
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:20,020
during the State of the Union to screw

290
00:09:20,020 --> 00:09:20,800
with the Democrats.

291
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:23,020
One of the great things about the State

292
00:09:23,020 --> 00:09:25,620
of the Union is how it gives Americans

293
00:09:25,620 --> 00:09:29,040
a chance to see clearly what their representatives

294
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,280
really believe.

295
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,520
So tonight, I'm inviting every legislature to join

296
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,940
with my administration in reaffirming a fundamental principle.

297
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,580
If you agree with this statement, then stand

298
00:09:41,580 --> 00:09:43,280
up and show your support.

299
00:09:44,180 --> 00:09:47,400
The first duty of the American government is

300
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,620
to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.

301
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,280
It was great how the shot pulled out

302
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:55,800
right away.

303
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:56,620
Yep.

304
00:09:57,620 --> 00:09:58,900
Isn't that a shame?

305
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,820
You should be ashamed of yourself not standing

306
00:10:01,820 --> 00:10:02,120
up.

307
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,980
You should be ashamed of yourself.

308
00:10:04,780 --> 00:10:07,100
We talked about this on Sunday, and it

309
00:10:07,100 --> 00:10:09,320
came true the next day.

310
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,040
He did exactly the same with NATO.

311
00:10:12,580 --> 00:10:14,200
He said, hey, you guys going to come

312
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,140
and stand up and stand next to us?

313
00:10:16,140 --> 00:10:20,880
And so he was with, gosh, I think

314
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,940
it was the prime minister of Austria or

315
00:10:23,940 --> 00:10:25,580
Ireland.

316
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:28,120
He was with the Taoiseach of Ireland.

317
00:10:28,580 --> 00:10:30,280
And he's sitting there in the Oval Office.

318
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,120
And this didn't get as much coverage as

319
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,820
I hoped it would have on the mainstream,

320
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,840
some choice bits, but he really laid it

321
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:38,200
down.

322
00:10:38,980 --> 00:10:42,300
I think NATO's making a very foolish mistake.

323
00:10:42,300 --> 00:10:44,460
And I've long said that, you know, I

324
00:10:44,460 --> 00:10:47,020
wonder whether or not NATO would ever be

325
00:10:47,020 --> 00:10:47,820
there for us.

326
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,860
So this is a this was a great

327
00:10:49,860 --> 00:10:51,820
test because we don't need them, but they

328
00:10:51,820 --> 00:10:52,500
should have been there.

329
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,160
The other thing is, and I think, you

330
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:59,900
know, very important, we didn't have to be

331
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:00,860
there for Ukraine.

332
00:11:01,020 --> 00:11:03,560
You know, Biden chose to spend hundreds of

333
00:11:03,560 --> 00:11:05,000
billions of dollars on Ukraine.

334
00:11:06,900 --> 00:11:10,400
And I guess the head of Germany just

335
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,480
made a statement that, well, they weren't involved

336
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:15,860
and they have nothing to do with the

337
00:11:15,860 --> 00:11:16,040
war.

338
00:11:16,180 --> 00:11:18,020
But at the same time, they think we

339
00:11:18,020 --> 00:11:20,280
did a great thing by knocking them out.

340
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,500
Nobody wants to have nobody wants to have

341
00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:24,260
Iran or anybody.

342
00:11:24,460 --> 00:11:25,880
But nobody wants to have Iran with a

343
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,320
nuclear because these people are crazy.

344
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,100
They're absolutely crazy and they're vicious, violent.

345
00:11:30,780 --> 00:11:31,500
I mean, they kill.

346
00:11:31,620 --> 00:11:32,020
Think of it.

347
00:11:32,020 --> 00:11:32,840
They kill.

348
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,360
Now I hear it's about 41000 people they

349
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:36,840
put out a notice two days ago.

350
00:11:37,220 --> 00:11:39,820
Anybody that protests will be immediately shot and

351
00:11:39,820 --> 00:11:40,160
killed.

352
00:11:41,020 --> 00:11:42,280
That's pretty tough stuff.

353
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,540
So everyone agrees with this, but they don't

354
00:11:44,540 --> 00:11:45,040
want to help.

355
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,740
And we you know, we as the United

356
00:11:47,740 --> 00:11:49,800
States have to remember that because we think

357
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:50,500
it's pretty shocking.

358
00:11:51,620 --> 00:11:53,320
We're going to remember that it was a

359
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:53,580
test.

360
00:11:53,620 --> 00:11:54,520
He says it himself.

361
00:11:54,620 --> 00:11:56,960
It was a test test to see if

362
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:57,900
they would stand up.

363
00:11:57,900 --> 00:12:00,980
And naturally, the question that he wanted was

364
00:12:00,980 --> 00:12:01,900
planted and came.

365
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,420
Are you rethinking the United States relationship with

366
00:12:05,420 --> 00:12:07,320
NATO, possibly getting out?

367
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,840
Well, I'm disappointed in NATO that we spend

368
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,460
trillions of dollars on NATO.

369
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,060
Think of it trillions over the years, many

370
00:12:15,060 --> 00:12:16,060
trillions of dollars.

371
00:12:16,780 --> 00:12:18,820
It's one of the reasons we have deficits

372
00:12:18,820 --> 00:12:20,360
and we help other countries.

373
00:12:20,900 --> 00:12:22,980
And when they don't help us, I mean,

374
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,880
it's certainly something that we should think about.

375
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,980
But I don't need Congress for that decision.

376
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,660
As you probably know, I can make that

377
00:12:30,660 --> 00:12:31,540
decision myself.

378
00:12:31,660 --> 00:12:35,100
I'd work with some very smart people and

379
00:12:35,100 --> 00:12:36,660
I'd always deal with Congress anyway.

380
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,660
But I don't need Congress for that decision.

381
00:12:38,660 --> 00:12:41,360
But, you know, when you when you say

382
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,700
rethink, I'm not I have nothing currently in

383
00:12:44,700 --> 00:12:45,080
mind.

384
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,860
But I will say that I'm not exactly

385
00:12:47,860 --> 00:12:51,420
thrilled when we help them with Ukraine, that

386
00:12:51,420 --> 00:12:53,200
Ukraine would have been over in one day

387
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:53,960
if we didn't help.

388
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,820
Frankly, Ukraine would have been over in the

389
00:12:55,820 --> 00:12:56,360
first day.

390
00:12:56,460 --> 00:12:57,940
They had the best equipment in the world.

391
00:12:58,020 --> 00:13:01,240
It was our equipment given by sleepy Joe

392
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:01,580
Biden.

393
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,380
No charge, no hundreds, hundreds of billions of

394
00:13:05,380 --> 00:13:07,220
dollars of the best equipment in the world.

395
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:08,300
No charge.

396
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,120
I will say that I'm not happy about

397
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:12,320
it.

398
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:12,820
No.

399
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,540
So there's your shot across the bow.

400
00:13:14,580 --> 00:13:15,480
I love the trolls.

401
00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:16,920
See Brooklyn one, one, two.

402
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,220
Well, you know what's funny?

403
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,820
High gas prices are funny.

404
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,120
You know what's funny?

405
00:13:24,260 --> 00:13:25,120
No gas.

406
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:26,140
I live through that.

407
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,140
Me, me live through that, too.

408
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:27,940
No gas.

409
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,200
Yeah, because we didn't have the region under

410
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:32,000
control.

411
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:34,200
We're anti-war.

412
00:13:34,340 --> 00:13:35,900
If you're anti-war, you have a very

413
00:13:35,900 --> 00:13:37,000
weak stance.

414
00:13:37,140 --> 00:13:38,420
You have nothing left.

415
00:13:38,940 --> 00:13:39,980
Get rid of your iPhone.

416
00:13:40,140 --> 00:13:44,200
The U.S. Navy protects that in.

417
00:13:44,340 --> 00:13:46,400
And so who did stand with America is

418
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,940
exactly the people who make sure that you

419
00:13:48,940 --> 00:13:50,240
have gas at all.

420
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,520
Which countries are joining?

421
00:13:53,180 --> 00:13:55,400
Well, we've had great support from the Middle

422
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:55,700
East.

423
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,120
Qatar has been great.

424
00:13:59,680 --> 00:14:02,460
The UAE has been absolutely great.

425
00:14:03,180 --> 00:14:04,800
Saudi Arabia has been terrific.

426
00:14:05,580 --> 00:14:06,800
Bahrain has been very good.

427
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,880
The Middle Eastern countries have been very strong

428
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:09,980
in their support.

429
00:14:10,100 --> 00:14:13,160
And of course, Israel has been our partner.

430
00:14:14,380 --> 00:14:16,460
Israel's been very, very strong.

431
00:14:18,020 --> 00:14:18,620
Yes.

432
00:14:19,980 --> 00:14:22,780
So that kind of, yeah.

433
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,160
Meanwhile, there's been a lot of, like, good

434
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:27,040
old Joe Kent.

435
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:28,260
Oh, wait, wait, wait.

436
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:29,020
You're going too fast.

437
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:30,240
I'm going too fast.

438
00:14:30,340 --> 00:14:31,080
Okay, let's go.

439
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:32,920
We'll get to Joe Kent in a moment,

440
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,060
and then we can have a good laugh

441
00:14:34,060 --> 00:14:34,600
about Israel.

442
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,400
So the president then reminds everybody where we

443
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,280
were with Iran during the Obama administration.

444
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,240
And he even asked us if we'd forgotten

445
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:45,740
about it.

446
00:14:45,740 --> 00:14:48,160
If we didn't do the attack, or if

447
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,120
I'll go a step further, if I didn't

448
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,260
terminate the Iran nuclear deal given to us,

449
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,380
one of the worst deals ever made, by

450
00:14:55,380 --> 00:14:56,540
Barack Hussein Obama.

451
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,740
Remember when they sent Boeing 757s over there?

452
00:15:00,060 --> 00:15:01,220
Loaded with cash.

453
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,680
Hundreds of millions of dollars.

454
00:15:03,780 --> 00:15:04,800
He would have been very happy.

455
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,360
This was a wonderful.

456
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,800
They sent hundreds of millions.

457
00:15:08,860 --> 00:15:09,660
People forget that.

458
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,740
Does anybody remember?

459
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:11,700
Right?

460
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:12,740
You remember.

461
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,920
Hundreds of millions of dollars in a Boeing

462
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,060
757.

463
00:15:17,140 --> 00:15:18,820
I think they had two of them loaded.

464
00:15:18,980 --> 00:15:21,240
They took the seats out, and they put

465
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:21,680
cash.

466
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,820
And it was so much that there wasn't

467
00:15:23,820 --> 00:15:26,440
a bank in Virginia, Maryland, or D.C.

468
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,220
that had any money left.

469
00:15:28,340 --> 00:15:30,420
They stripped them of all their money, put

470
00:15:30,420 --> 00:15:33,520
it into place, sent it to Iran, almost

471
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:34,280
as ransom.

472
00:15:34,660 --> 00:15:35,180
Yeah, almost.

473
00:15:35,340 --> 00:15:36,800
That's not going to happen with Trump.

474
00:15:37,460 --> 00:15:39,740
And nobody ever did anything about it.

475
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:40,780
Nobody ever said anything.

476
00:15:40,780 --> 00:15:42,700
Can you imagine if I did that?

477
00:15:43,300 --> 00:15:45,880
I didn't know that the banks in Virginia

478
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,360
and Maryland and D.C. were empty of

479
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:48,660
cash.

480
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:49,820
That's an interesting detail.

481
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:50,760
I've never heard before.

482
00:15:52,020 --> 00:15:53,260
I haven't heard that at all.

483
00:15:53,540 --> 00:15:56,060
But, you know, we could have all wished

484
00:15:56,060 --> 00:15:57,800
for a plane crash that day.

485
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,460
Money from heaven.

486
00:16:03,420 --> 00:16:04,740
Mana from heaven.

487
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,560
So we're winding it up here.

488
00:16:07,340 --> 00:16:10,000
Mr. Trump, Mr. President, you have a day

489
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:10,860
after plan.

490
00:16:10,860 --> 00:16:13,020
It's just a military operation to you.

491
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,820
But do you not have a day after

492
00:16:14,820 --> 00:16:15,180
plan?

493
00:16:15,380 --> 00:16:16,940
And if so, what is your day after

494
00:16:16,940 --> 00:16:17,800
plan for Iran?

495
00:16:18,020 --> 00:16:18,860
Well, we have a lot.

496
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,740
Look, if we left right now, it would

497
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:24,760
take 10 years for them to rebuild.

498
00:16:25,540 --> 00:16:27,380
But we're not ready to leave yet.

499
00:16:27,540 --> 00:16:30,320
But we'll be leaving in the near future.

500
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,240
We'll be leaving in pretty much the very

501
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:33,780
near future.

502
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,180
But right now, they've been decimated from every

503
00:16:38,180 --> 00:16:38,580
standpoint.

504
00:16:38,580 --> 00:16:42,640
And again, we've had great support from countries

505
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:43,360
in the Middle East.

506
00:16:43,620 --> 00:16:44,180
Great support.

507
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,420
But we've had no support from, essentially, no

508
00:16:47,420 --> 00:16:48,260
support from NATO.

509
00:16:48,660 --> 00:16:50,300
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

510
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:57,060
Then we actually had a thing about NATO.

511
00:16:57,300 --> 00:17:00,000
I'll get you to Joe Kent.

512
00:17:01,260 --> 00:17:01,640
Where is it?

513
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:02,240
Here we go.

514
00:17:02,420 --> 00:17:02,680
Yeah.

515
00:17:04,180 --> 00:17:04,700
Huh.

516
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:06,119
I thought I had this here.

517
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,119
Where is my...

518
00:17:10,420 --> 00:17:11,380
Goodness gracious.

519
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:13,119
Where is my...

520
00:17:15,619 --> 00:17:16,380
Oh, here it is.

521
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:17,040
This is from...

522
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,960
Actually, this is Canada Global News.

523
00:17:20,099 --> 00:17:21,800
And they bring in all the Europeans on

524
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:22,000
this.

525
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:26,380
Because, clearly, the president has no clue, no

526
00:17:26,380 --> 00:17:28,180
plan, no idea what he's doing.

527
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,020
The U.S. president sounded so sure about

528
00:17:31,020 --> 00:17:32,260
Iran's liberation...

529
00:17:32,260 --> 00:17:34,540
I say tonight that the hour of your

530
00:17:34,540 --> 00:17:35,780
freedom is at hand.

531
00:17:35,780 --> 00:17:37,700
...that the war would be over quickly.

532
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:38,900
I think you'll see it's going to be

533
00:17:38,900 --> 00:17:40,200
a short-term excursion.

534
00:17:40,420 --> 00:17:42,860
But Donald Trump has discovered that Iranian freedom

535
00:17:42,860 --> 00:17:43,900
is not at hand.

536
00:17:44,020 --> 00:17:45,760
They don't have guns, and the other ones

537
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:46,300
have guns.

538
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,220
Highly sophisticated machine guns.

539
00:17:49,340 --> 00:17:51,900
It's the small observations that are revealing that

540
00:17:51,900 --> 00:17:54,300
the Iranian regime can still threaten the global

541
00:17:54,300 --> 00:17:54,820
economy.

542
00:17:55,020 --> 00:17:58,460
Literally, a single terrorist can put something in

543
00:17:58,460 --> 00:18:00,260
the water or shoot something or shoot a

544
00:18:00,260 --> 00:18:00,500
missile.

545
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:03,100
Trump said he didn't need NATO's help, then

546
00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:05,240
asked for it, didn't get it, then declared

547
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,940
he didn't need it, and never did.

548
00:18:07,260 --> 00:18:07,700
Incoherent.

549
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:09,920
I would describe Trump's approach to all of

550
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,560
this as strategically incoherent.

551
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,860
This expert on U.S. foreign policy says

552
00:18:13,860 --> 00:18:16,800
Trump's objectives have swung from regime change to

553
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:17,760
nuclear disarmament.

554
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:19,760
He's not even sure who to talk to.

555
00:18:19,940 --> 00:18:21,020
I don't know if they're ready yet.

556
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,620
And we don't even know their leaders.

557
00:18:22,620 --> 00:18:24,400
All of this suggests to me that nobody's

558
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,480
on the same page, and nobody really knows

559
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,900
what the point of the war is or

560
00:18:29,900 --> 00:18:30,920
how it's going to end.

561
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,300
NATO allies, recently intimidated by Trump's threats and

562
00:18:34,300 --> 00:18:36,640
tariffs, are forcefully resisting him now.

563
00:18:37,700 --> 00:18:40,440
France would never take part, says President Emmanuel

564
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,020
Macron, in an operation to unlock the Strait

565
00:18:43,020 --> 00:18:43,600
of Hormuz.

566
00:18:43,900 --> 00:18:45,620
For many, it all comes back to the

567
00:18:45,620 --> 00:18:46,300
same question.

568
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,080
What is Trump's endgame?

569
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,980
We haven't been consulted, and we don't really

570
00:18:50,980 --> 00:18:55,040
understand what are the objectives of this war.

571
00:18:55,260 --> 00:18:57,580
It's no surprise, say experts, that neither the

572
00:18:57,580 --> 00:19:00,340
allies nor shipping companies want to risk Iranian

573
00:19:00,340 --> 00:19:02,040
attacks in the narrow strait.

574
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,000
They can exploit the geography of the Strait

575
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,300
of Hormuz and use relatively unsophisticated weapons that

576
00:19:07,300 --> 00:19:09,960
are easy to hide and attack shipping almost

577
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:10,900
whenever they want.

578
00:19:11,140 --> 00:19:13,040
So Iran really has the ability to protract

579
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,640
this conflict pretty significantly.

580
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,840
So Trump finds himself in a war in

581
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,420
which Iran will not surrender and America's usual

582
00:19:19,420 --> 00:19:20,980
partners will not take part.

583
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,000
This is what happens when the United States

584
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,240
mistreats its allies.

585
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,660
What we're seeing over the last couple of

586
00:19:25,660 --> 00:19:28,700
days is that there's no international appetite to

587
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:30,320
help Donald Trump out of this mess.

588
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,640
Trump's plan to win or end the war

589
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,340
still sounds vague.

590
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,220
We'll be leaving in the near future.

591
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,140
We'll be leaving in pretty much the very

592
00:19:39,140 --> 00:19:39,720
near future.

593
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,720
Eric Sorensen, Global News, Toronto.

594
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:43,660
I love this.

595
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,500
It's been obvious for over 100 years what

596
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:50,260
is going on, and Trump is the first

597
00:19:50,260 --> 00:19:53,200
president to actually do something about it.

598
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,460
And people who keep saying, oh, we're doing

599
00:19:55,460 --> 00:20:02,840
this for Israel, it's a very illogical, unintelligent

600
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:03,300
take.

601
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:04,840
To what end?

602
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,380
To what end?

603
00:20:07,380 --> 00:20:09,080
The whole point is the oil.

604
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,280
The oil has been the point since 1906,

605
00:20:12,620 --> 00:20:16,860
I think, whenever Churchill changed the British Navy

606
00:20:16,860 --> 00:20:18,020
from coal to oil.

607
00:20:18,180 --> 00:20:21,380
And they went in and created the Anglo

608
00:20:21,380 --> 00:20:24,080
-Persian Oil Company, later BP.

609
00:20:25,260 --> 00:20:28,340
And everything was hunky-dory and everybody was

610
00:20:28,340 --> 00:20:29,380
happy until 1953.

611
00:20:30,180 --> 00:20:34,420
Then we, CIA and MI6, went in because

612
00:20:34,420 --> 00:20:37,520
they had a republic, they had democratically elected

613
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:38,540
government.

614
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,220
And like, oh, we can't have this.

615
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,000
We need strife and people to be crazy.

616
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,020
And why don't you just take our opium

617
00:20:45,020 --> 00:20:46,200
like you did when they deal in the

618
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:46,700
first place?

619
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,540
And the prime minister, what was his name?

620
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,760
Mahhuzad or something, I forget his name.

621
00:20:51,380 --> 00:20:53,420
Yeah, well, and he was the one who

622
00:20:53,420 --> 00:20:55,380
pushed so that Iran would get a cut.

623
00:20:55,380 --> 00:20:56,860
They wanted to nationalize the oil.

624
00:20:56,860 --> 00:20:57,320
A cut.

625
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,620
He was going to nationalize it.

626
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:00,720
Right.

627
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:01,800
And they did.

628
00:21:01,900 --> 00:21:03,840
They ended up getting more money, which they

629
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,900
were getting nothing for this oil getting taken

630
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:06,480
from the ground.

631
00:21:06,580 --> 00:21:08,680
Right, so then we brought in the Shah.

632
00:21:09,780 --> 00:21:10,680
Our boy.

633
00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:14,940
We brought him in and he kicked Khomeini

634
00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:15,360
out.

635
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,380
And then the Islamic Revolution started to happen,

636
00:21:20,180 --> 00:21:22,660
which came in 78, 79.

637
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,740
Again, our fingerprints were all over it.

638
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,400
It was a student uprising who, I remember

639
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:30,740
this.

640
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,420
I was old enough to remember.

641
00:21:32,580 --> 00:21:35,640
They got our embassy, had 50 people for

642
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:36,740
over 400 days.

643
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,120
And the CIA was, they'd shredded all their

644
00:21:39,120 --> 00:21:39,740
documents.

645
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,720
And the students got all the shredded material,

646
00:21:43,940 --> 00:21:45,500
took it to school, to the school children.

647
00:21:45,540 --> 00:21:46,480
Say, hey, you like puzzles?

648
00:21:46,780 --> 00:21:47,620
Put this together.

649
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,440
And so they had the proof that we

650
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,600
had done all of that.

651
00:21:51,900 --> 00:21:53,860
That's where that's where all this came from.

652
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,800
The students thought that they were going to

653
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,300
get freedom and they were going to get

654
00:21:58,300 --> 00:21:59,580
their own country and they're going to get

655
00:21:59,580 --> 00:22:00,380
elections again.

656
00:22:00,540 --> 00:22:02,400
I mean, they were completely misled.

657
00:22:03,260 --> 00:22:05,500
Oh, well, of course, of course, they were.

658
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:06,160
Yes.

659
00:22:06,300 --> 00:22:07,600
So, yes, they were.

660
00:22:07,900 --> 00:22:08,700
They were misled.

661
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,260
And then the nut jobs came in and

662
00:22:13,260 --> 00:22:15,820
they behooved the people who set the oil

663
00:22:15,820 --> 00:22:16,360
prices.

664
00:22:16,580 --> 00:22:18,560
The spot market, I believe, is set in

665
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,440
London, not in New York or Chicago.

666
00:22:21,580 --> 00:22:22,360
It's set in London.

667
00:22:23,620 --> 00:22:26,360
You know, five to fifteen dollars of premium

668
00:22:26,360 --> 00:22:27,640
per oil for the danger.

669
00:22:27,860 --> 00:22:29,760
That's pure profit right in their pockets.

670
00:22:30,380 --> 00:22:31,560
And it's been that way forever.

671
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,220
And to me, it's so clear.

672
00:22:33,380 --> 00:22:35,100
If you think this is about getting rid

673
00:22:35,100 --> 00:22:36,220
of Israel's enemy.

674
00:22:36,220 --> 00:22:39,100
No, the Abraham Accords have already got everybody

675
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:40,480
looking in the same direction.

676
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,040
Saudi Arabia is ready to be the tech

677
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:45,380
Mecca, the AI Mecca.

678
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,740
They're investing trillions of dollars.

679
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,480
So Israel.

680
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:50,700
No, you're stupid.

681
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:52,900
No, really.

682
00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:55,840
Even I think I have a clip.

683
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,400
Even Trump.

684
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,820
He was asked about the objectives of the

685
00:23:00,820 --> 00:23:01,820
US and Israel.

686
00:23:01,820 --> 00:23:04,700
Are you speaking with Prime Minister Netanyahu?

687
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,900
And are your objectives the same in terms

688
00:23:07,900 --> 00:23:08,960
of ending the war?

689
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,140
They might be a little different, I guess.

690
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,040
You know, they're a different country than we

691
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:13,260
are.

692
00:23:13,300 --> 00:23:14,260
A different country.

693
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:15,660
Whatever they're doing.

694
00:23:16,020 --> 00:23:18,260
And Hegseth said effectively the same thing.

695
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,620
Well, I would just state by saying Israel

696
00:23:20,620 --> 00:23:22,140
has been a really strong partner in this

697
00:23:22,140 --> 00:23:22,600
effort.

698
00:23:23,300 --> 00:23:25,860
Where they have different objectives, they've pursued them.

699
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,760
Ultimately, we've stayed focused on ours.

700
00:23:29,020 --> 00:23:29,880
Yeah, there you go.

701
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,920
And we'll get to more of that later

702
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,680
after I lead you into Joe Kent.

703
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,140
Mr. President, your Director of National Counterterrorism, Joe

704
00:23:37,140 --> 00:23:38,700
Kent, he just resigned today.

705
00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:41,360
He said he can't support your conflict with

706
00:23:41,360 --> 00:23:41,700
Iran.

707
00:23:41,980 --> 00:23:43,160
What's your reaction to that?

708
00:23:43,300 --> 00:23:44,620
Well, I read his statement.

709
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,960
I always thought he was a nice guy,

710
00:23:46,060 --> 00:23:48,160
but I always thought he was weak on

711
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:48,700
security.

712
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:49,900
Very weak on security.

713
00:23:51,580 --> 00:23:53,220
I didn't know him well, but I thought

714
00:23:53,220 --> 00:23:55,240
he seemed like a pretty nice guy.

715
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,740
But when I read his statement, I realized

716
00:23:58,740 --> 00:24:01,400
that it's a good thing that he's out.

717
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,940
Because he said that Iran was not a

718
00:24:03,940 --> 00:24:04,280
threat.

719
00:24:05,180 --> 00:24:06,460
Iran was a threat.

720
00:24:06,660 --> 00:24:09,360
Every country realized what a threat Iran was.

721
00:24:09,420 --> 00:24:10,820
The question is whether or not they wanted

722
00:24:10,820 --> 00:24:12,180
to do something about it.

723
00:24:12,940 --> 00:24:16,440
And Kent really had the same old boring

724
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,180
take that, oh, well, if you do that,

725
00:24:19,260 --> 00:24:22,040
then we'll be distracted and China will take

726
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:22,640
Taiwan.

727
00:24:22,820 --> 00:24:23,720
It hasn't happened.

728
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:24,700
Right.

729
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:25,980
And it may.

730
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,740
I don't even know if we care anymore.

731
00:24:29,140 --> 00:24:31,360
It's always so important to Taiwan.

732
00:24:32,180 --> 00:24:36,660
Evidently, he has been a leaker.

733
00:24:37,700 --> 00:24:40,700
So I'd love the breaking news.

734
00:24:40,980 --> 00:24:42,460
It's 318 breaking news.

735
00:24:42,540 --> 00:24:42,720
Breaking!

736
00:24:42,980 --> 00:24:44,080
We got breaking news.

737
00:24:44,180 --> 00:24:47,620
Just a moment ago, sources are saying that

738
00:24:47,620 --> 00:24:50,620
Joe Kent, the former director of the United

739
00:24:50,620 --> 00:24:53,540
States National Counterterrorism Center, this is from Semaphore,

740
00:24:53,900 --> 00:24:54,880
he just resigned.

741
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,760
He's now under FBI investigation for allegedly leaking

742
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,220
classified information.

743
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,080
And the investigation predate his departure.

744
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,340
Yeah, I saw this.

745
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,200
I'm not sure what to make of this.

746
00:25:09,020 --> 00:25:12,520
Well, we also have a PBS Liz Landers

747
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:13,520
on Joe Kent.

748
00:25:13,980 --> 00:25:14,540
OK.

749
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:15,960
Who's Liz Landers?

750
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:16,860
She works for PBS?

751
00:25:17,540 --> 00:25:17,740
Yep.

752
00:25:17,740 --> 00:25:20,220
With his background as a Green Beret and

753
00:25:20,220 --> 00:25:22,100
a former CIA official, he has both this

754
00:25:22,100 --> 00:25:23,760
military and intelligence background.

755
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,100
But he really represents sort of the MAGA

756
00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:29,360
portion of this administration who is anti-war.

757
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,140
And that is what we saw today in

758
00:25:31,140 --> 00:25:32,060
these comments from him.

759
00:25:32,120 --> 00:25:34,100
He has a close relationship with Tucker Carlson,

760
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:37,060
who we've mentioned previously, has been critical of

761
00:25:37,060 --> 00:25:39,420
this war in Iran since it started.

762
00:25:39,820 --> 00:25:41,980
He's also a close ally of Tulsi Gabbard,

763
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,820
the director of national intelligence.

764
00:25:44,420 --> 00:25:46,420
Ah, you led me right into it.

765
00:25:46,540 --> 00:25:46,880
Perfect.

766
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,860
Which, yep, which, of course, four days ago,

767
00:25:50,980 --> 00:25:51,720
Tucker said.

768
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:53,640
Well, here we go.

769
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,180
So the other day, I found out that

770
00:25:55,180 --> 00:25:57,900
the CIA is preparing some kind of criminal

771
00:25:57,900 --> 00:26:00,940
referral against me, a crime report to Department

772
00:26:00,940 --> 00:26:03,520
of Justice on the basis of a supposed

773
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:04,340
crime I committed.

774
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,000
What's that crime?

775
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,460
Well, talking to people in Iran before the

776
00:26:08,460 --> 00:26:08,800
war.

777
00:26:09,340 --> 00:26:10,720
They read my texts.

778
00:26:11,340 --> 00:26:14,640
So the crime under consideration apparently would be

779
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,580
the Foreign Agent Act or something like that,

780
00:26:17,620 --> 00:26:19,200
acting as an agent of a foreign power.

781
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,240
And I don't expect this to go anywhere.

782
00:26:22,660 --> 00:26:24,860
I'm not too worried about an actual criminal

783
00:26:24,860 --> 00:26:26,800
case against me for a bunch of reasons.

784
00:26:26,940 --> 00:26:28,560
One, I'm not an agent of a foreign

785
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:28,920
power.

786
00:26:29,420 --> 00:26:31,280
Unlike a lot of people commenting on U

787
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,300
.S. politics and global affairs, I have only

788
00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:34,760
one loyalty, and that's the United States.

789
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:36,320
I'm a podcaster.

790
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,240
I thought that there's no way that's a

791
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:42,520
coincidence.

792
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,600
I think that Tucker was talking to Kent.

793
00:26:47,670 --> 00:26:50,910
Yeah, I thought that, too, with the difference

794
00:26:50,910 --> 00:26:54,150
being the FBI has opened an investigation against

795
00:26:54,150 --> 00:26:56,350
Kent and Tucker's talking about the CIA.

796
00:26:56,950 --> 00:26:58,810
And I mean, it could just be an

797
00:26:58,810 --> 00:26:59,790
elaborate joke.

798
00:27:00,830 --> 00:27:03,250
Or Tucker is just this is just an

799
00:27:03,250 --> 00:27:05,330
elaborate publicity stunt by Tucker.

800
00:27:06,910 --> 00:27:09,430
I wouldn't put it past them, to be

801
00:27:09,430 --> 00:27:10,270
fair about it.

802
00:27:12,250 --> 00:27:14,370
So can I go off on my rant?

803
00:27:14,750 --> 00:27:15,830
Go for it.

804
00:27:16,110 --> 00:27:18,590
So I was like looking around, and the

805
00:27:18,590 --> 00:27:21,430
funny thing that I found was Tucker is

806
00:27:21,430 --> 00:27:23,990
he likes to be talked about clearly.

807
00:27:24,130 --> 00:27:25,910
And I found a lot of people talking

808
00:27:25,910 --> 00:27:26,450
about him.

809
00:27:26,450 --> 00:27:28,630
But what I found the most interesting was

810
00:27:28,630 --> 00:27:31,990
Pastor Demonsi, I think that's how you pronounce

811
00:27:31,990 --> 00:27:34,230
it, from Demonsi, Washington.

812
00:27:36,230 --> 00:27:37,670
I have two parts to it.

813
00:27:37,690 --> 00:27:38,970
So the first one is called dangerous.

814
00:27:39,110 --> 00:27:39,950
The other one is final.

815
00:27:40,550 --> 00:27:43,130
Within the West, the church itself is being

816
00:27:43,130 --> 00:27:45,310
more and more divided on one single issue,

817
00:27:45,510 --> 00:27:46,430
Israel and the Jewish people.

818
00:27:47,090 --> 00:27:48,870
There's lots of doctrinal things, and the church

819
00:27:48,870 --> 00:27:50,290
has been fighting for 2,000 years with

820
00:27:50,290 --> 00:27:51,370
itself about many, many things.

821
00:27:51,390 --> 00:27:52,950
That's why there's thousands of denominations.

822
00:27:52,950 --> 00:27:55,290
But what we're seeing now more than ever

823
00:27:55,290 --> 00:27:58,830
before is that Christians of different ethnicities, different

824
00:27:58,830 --> 00:28:02,630
groups, different denominations, Catholic, Protestant, the dividing line

825
00:28:02,630 --> 00:28:03,950
seems to be Israel and the Jews.

826
00:28:04,150 --> 00:28:04,750
Israel and the Jews.

827
00:28:04,850 --> 00:28:08,010
Either you believe God's word when it comes

828
00:28:08,010 --> 00:28:09,830
to Israel and the Jewish people, or you

829
00:28:09,830 --> 00:28:11,870
believe the Tucker Carlsons and the Candace Owens,

830
00:28:12,010 --> 00:28:14,110
and that's really causing the kind of riff

831
00:28:14,110 --> 00:28:14,570
right now.

832
00:28:14,870 --> 00:28:16,550
Ooh, right up my alley.

833
00:28:16,690 --> 00:28:18,190
I'll let you finish, and then I'll give

834
00:28:18,190 --> 00:28:18,810
you my opinion.

835
00:28:19,290 --> 00:28:22,910
OK, so then there's a final with this

836
00:28:22,910 --> 00:28:26,110
pastor, by the way, is the founder of

837
00:28:26,110 --> 00:28:29,310
the Institute for Black Solidarity with Israel, and

838
00:28:29,310 --> 00:28:30,810
he's in Charlotte, North Carolina.

839
00:28:31,250 --> 00:28:33,510
So let's let's do the final with him.

840
00:28:33,830 --> 00:28:36,030
It's dangerous because of who he is.

841
00:28:36,250 --> 00:28:37,510
The platform that he has.

842
00:28:37,990 --> 00:28:39,230
He's still with T.P. USA.

843
00:28:39,770 --> 00:28:41,930
He's still good friends with the vice president

844
00:28:41,930 --> 00:28:42,590
of the United States.

845
00:28:42,650 --> 00:28:42,790
Right.

846
00:28:42,830 --> 00:28:44,630
This is not just some guy on a

847
00:28:44,630 --> 00:28:46,410
street corner yelling with a bullhorn.

848
00:28:46,410 --> 00:28:48,950
This guy has access to the highest levels

849
00:28:48,950 --> 00:28:51,070
of government in our nation.

850
00:28:51,410 --> 00:28:54,510
So and he's in the platforms, Nick Fuentes.

851
00:28:54,850 --> 00:28:57,450
And but he's not getting really any pushback

852
00:28:57,450 --> 00:28:58,990
from the people that should be giving him

853
00:28:58,990 --> 00:28:59,390
pushback.

854
00:28:59,590 --> 00:29:01,270
This is a very dangerous moment for our

855
00:29:01,270 --> 00:29:01,570
nation.

856
00:29:02,690 --> 00:29:05,810
OK, so I happen to have a conversation

857
00:29:05,810 --> 00:29:08,790
with Pastor Jimmy about this yesterday on we

858
00:29:08,790 --> 00:29:10,830
on the we get to do this podcast.

859
00:29:11,530 --> 00:29:14,170
I've been tracking this because it is probably

860
00:29:14,170 --> 00:29:15,690
the oldest trick in the book.

861
00:29:16,090 --> 00:29:17,790
And the Brits love doing it.

862
00:29:17,810 --> 00:29:19,770
And when I say the Brits, you know,

863
00:29:19,810 --> 00:29:22,870
MI6, City of London, you know, Wall Street

864
00:29:22,870 --> 00:29:23,590
affiliated.

865
00:29:23,930 --> 00:29:26,970
They love to use religion to divide people.

866
00:29:27,830 --> 00:29:31,250
And what is cropped up and the catalyst

867
00:29:31,250 --> 00:29:32,290
was Charlie Kirk.

868
00:29:32,850 --> 00:29:34,150
That was the catalyst.

869
00:29:34,150 --> 00:29:37,610
And that's when we brought in Israel Jews

870
00:29:37,610 --> 00:29:42,290
problem, even though it really started October 7th.

871
00:29:42,290 --> 00:29:44,610
But, you know, then we got that's when

872
00:29:44,610 --> 00:29:45,910
we got Candace Owens.

873
00:29:46,190 --> 00:29:46,950
We got Tucker.

874
00:29:47,070 --> 00:29:47,970
We got Megyn Kelly.

875
00:29:48,110 --> 00:29:49,570
We got Ben Shapiro.

876
00:29:49,570 --> 00:29:51,730
We have Mark Levine.

877
00:29:51,830 --> 00:29:56,270
We've got the Nick Fuentes.

878
00:29:57,170 --> 00:30:02,490
And the the conspiracy theory, which is up

879
00:30:02,490 --> 00:30:05,250
my alley, you know, I've looked at many

880
00:30:05,250 --> 00:30:07,830
conspiracy theories on the show throughout the years.

881
00:30:08,050 --> 00:30:09,830
Still don't think we landed on the moon.

882
00:30:09,830 --> 00:30:14,890
But the conspiracy theory is that about 110

883
00:30:14,890 --> 00:30:19,090
years or about 100 years ago, the Schofield

884
00:30:19,090 --> 00:30:20,610
Bible was published.

885
00:30:21,250 --> 00:30:27,390
And the Schofield Bible changed the the way

886
00:30:27,390 --> 00:30:33,350
American Christians looked at Israel, which had been

887
00:30:33,350 --> 00:30:37,070
since the days of Constantine.

888
00:30:37,070 --> 00:30:41,750
So what are we, 300 BC, 300, the

889
00:30:41,750 --> 00:30:42,350
year 300?

890
00:30:43,430 --> 00:30:48,430
Constantine made Christianity the official religion of Rome

891
00:30:48,430 --> 00:30:49,770
and effectively the world.

892
00:30:50,530 --> 00:30:56,610
And what Constantine said was Israel is no

893
00:30:56,610 --> 00:30:57,010
more.

894
00:30:58,170 --> 00:31:00,090
The church is the new Israel.

895
00:31:00,090 --> 00:31:03,310
And for 1800 years or whatever, you know,

896
00:31:03,350 --> 00:31:06,430
this this was this was what it was.

897
00:31:06,630 --> 00:31:08,190
The church is the new Israel.

898
00:31:08,830 --> 00:31:11,090
And that's called replacement theory.

899
00:31:13,250 --> 00:31:14,370
What's the Schofield?

900
00:31:14,490 --> 00:31:16,710
And this really great the way the conspiracy

901
00:31:16,710 --> 00:31:18,650
theory goes is, well, you know, this guy,

902
00:31:18,770 --> 00:31:20,850
he edited the Bible is called the Schofield

903
00:31:20,850 --> 00:31:21,190
Bible.

904
00:31:21,330 --> 00:31:22,670
Well, he didn't edit the Bible.

905
00:31:22,670 --> 00:31:25,630
It was a study Bible and the study

906
00:31:25,630 --> 00:31:31,030
Bible proclaimed dispensationalism, which is is I find

907
00:31:31,030 --> 00:31:32,150
it somewhat convoluted.

908
00:31:32,230 --> 00:31:35,150
But there's these, you know, divides world history

909
00:31:35,150 --> 00:31:36,470
up into seven stages.

910
00:31:36,470 --> 00:31:38,010
And we're now in the church stage.

911
00:31:38,450 --> 00:31:39,150
But there's a third.

912
00:31:39,270 --> 00:31:40,670
And so those are the two camps.

913
00:31:41,210 --> 00:31:42,670
The camps are none.

914
00:31:43,490 --> 00:31:45,270
And I think a lot of Catholics are

915
00:31:45,270 --> 00:31:47,210
in the replay or fulfillment.

916
00:31:47,370 --> 00:31:48,830
They would call it theology.

917
00:31:48,830 --> 00:31:50,210
Like the church is new Israel.

918
00:31:50,250 --> 00:31:51,250
You don't need Israel.

919
00:31:51,250 --> 00:31:51,830
It's fine.

920
00:31:53,550 --> 00:31:57,510
The dispensationalists are very much the and I

921
00:31:57,510 --> 00:31:58,250
think they're ignorant.

922
00:31:58,430 --> 00:32:02,650
The Ted Cruz's of the world, probably speaker

923
00:32:02,650 --> 00:32:06,550
of the house, Mike Johnson, the president's pastor,

924
00:32:06,690 --> 00:32:07,490
Paula White.

925
00:32:08,090 --> 00:32:09,570
You know, they're like 1948.

926
00:32:09,890 --> 00:32:11,570
That was the fulfillment of Scripture.

927
00:32:11,670 --> 00:32:13,970
And these people are all hung up on

928
00:32:13,970 --> 00:32:16,590
eschatology, the end times.

929
00:32:16,730 --> 00:32:17,710
You know, we're almost there.

930
00:32:17,810 --> 00:32:18,330
You know, it's coming.

931
00:32:18,530 --> 00:32:19,510
Jesus is coming back.

932
00:32:19,510 --> 00:32:23,090
And if you read the Bible, there's which,

933
00:32:23,550 --> 00:32:25,790
which, by the way, that definitely reminds me

934
00:32:25,790 --> 00:32:30,490
of some of the more ridiculously extreme of

935
00:32:30,490 --> 00:32:33,270
the Muslim religions that believe that the only

936
00:32:33,270 --> 00:32:35,590
way that Muhammad will come back is if

937
00:32:35,590 --> 00:32:36,750
we have an apocalypse.

938
00:32:37,270 --> 00:32:37,750
Oh, yeah.

939
00:32:38,190 --> 00:32:38,710
Armageddon.

940
00:32:38,830 --> 00:32:39,210
Exactly.

941
00:32:39,330 --> 00:32:39,810
Armageddon.

942
00:32:40,190 --> 00:32:42,770
So but the way I look at it

943
00:32:42,770 --> 00:32:44,350
and I'm a new Christian, so I have

944
00:32:44,350 --> 00:32:46,130
the benefit of listening to a lot of

945
00:32:46,130 --> 00:32:46,750
different people.

946
00:32:46,750 --> 00:32:50,170
And my pastor, I've been talking about this

947
00:32:50,170 --> 00:32:51,410
with him for months.

948
00:32:52,190 --> 00:32:54,590
There's a third way, which is called covenant

949
00:32:54,590 --> 00:32:55,250
theology.

950
00:32:56,050 --> 00:32:59,070
And in the Bible, it says black and

951
00:32:59,070 --> 00:32:59,430
white.

952
00:33:00,030 --> 00:33:03,010
God says this land is for the chosen

953
00:33:03,010 --> 00:33:03,510
people.

954
00:33:03,830 --> 00:33:06,770
Now, he doesn't say Benjamin Netanyahu.

955
00:33:06,770 --> 00:33:10,430
He doesn't say the borders as drawn in

956
00:33:10,430 --> 00:33:11,230
1948.

957
00:33:12,590 --> 00:33:16,810
And we as Gentiles are grafted into the

958
00:33:16,810 --> 00:33:17,570
Jewish people.

959
00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:22,870
So that you can believe that Israel belongs

960
00:33:22,870 --> 00:33:24,950
to the Jews without having to define it

961
00:33:24,950 --> 00:33:30,630
that way and without having to be crazy

962
00:33:30,630 --> 00:33:31,230
about it.

963
00:33:31,810 --> 00:33:33,790
You don't have to be nuts because you

964
00:33:33,790 --> 00:33:36,030
can just read the words that God said.

965
00:33:36,030 --> 00:33:39,670
So evidently, Tucker mistook something that someone said

966
00:33:39,670 --> 00:33:40,350
in Israel.

967
00:33:42,910 --> 00:33:46,250
So when Palestine was having all the issues,

968
00:33:46,410 --> 00:33:47,630
all the Christians moved.

969
00:33:47,750 --> 00:33:48,290
They left.

970
00:33:48,450 --> 00:33:49,750
They went to other parts of the world.

971
00:33:49,890 --> 00:33:51,610
They went to Israel.

972
00:33:52,990 --> 00:33:55,110
And Tucker thought that it meant that there

973
00:33:55,110 --> 00:33:57,070
was ethnic cleansing of Christians.

974
00:33:57,310 --> 00:33:58,690
He completely misunderstood.

975
00:33:58,970 --> 00:34:00,610
But that's because he is not.

976
00:34:01,290 --> 00:34:03,250
I don't think he has any religious background

977
00:34:03,250 --> 00:34:03,770
at all.

978
00:34:03,770 --> 00:34:06,190
So I would love to go into this

979
00:34:06,190 --> 00:34:06,490
thing.

980
00:34:07,449 --> 00:34:10,389
I've got Tucker Carlson's spirituality.

981
00:34:10,850 --> 00:34:14,170
And this is a movie called Christianities by

982
00:34:14,170 --> 00:34:16,170
Holy Wisdom Films by John Hears.

983
00:34:16,449 --> 00:34:18,630
And they have a sneak peek that features

984
00:34:18,630 --> 00:34:19,630
Tucker Carlson.

985
00:34:19,949 --> 00:34:21,370
So let's do part one.

986
00:34:21,850 --> 00:34:23,969
Do you think the presence of evil is

987
00:34:23,969 --> 00:34:25,889
kick-starting people to wonder about the good?

988
00:34:25,929 --> 00:34:26,630
That's what happened to me.

989
00:34:26,909 --> 00:34:27,550
That's what happened to you?

990
00:34:28,070 --> 00:34:28,510
Oh, yeah.

991
00:34:28,670 --> 00:34:31,550
I had a direct experience with it.

992
00:34:32,150 --> 00:34:34,530
In the milieu of journalism or just— No,

993
00:34:34,530 --> 00:34:36,130
in my bed at night.

994
00:34:36,330 --> 00:34:38,010
And I got attacked while I was asleep

995
00:34:38,010 --> 00:34:39,750
with my wife and four dogs in the

996
00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:40,449
bed and mauled.

997
00:34:42,030 --> 00:34:42,889
Physically mauled.

998
00:34:43,610 --> 00:34:45,210
In a spiritual attack by a demon?

999
00:34:45,250 --> 00:34:45,570
Hold on.

1000
00:34:45,770 --> 00:34:47,290
What was with the nat pop of the

1001
00:34:47,290 --> 00:34:47,630
dog?

1002
00:34:48,210 --> 00:34:49,750
I couldn't get it out.

1003
00:34:49,810 --> 00:34:50,290
I tried.

1004
00:34:50,409 --> 00:34:51,429
No, that's perfect.

1005
00:34:51,650 --> 00:34:52,270
That's perfect.

1006
00:34:52,429 --> 00:34:52,830
Let's hear it again.

1007
00:34:53,010 --> 00:34:54,469
I was asleep with my wife and four

1008
00:34:54,469 --> 00:34:55,770
dogs in the bed and mauled.

1009
00:34:57,290 --> 00:34:58,150
Physically mauled.

1010
00:34:58,890 --> 00:35:00,510
In a spiritual attack by a demon?

1011
00:35:00,510 --> 00:35:01,810
Yeah, by a demon.

1012
00:35:02,030 --> 00:35:04,670
Or by something unseen that left— Is it

1013
00:35:04,670 --> 00:35:04,890
right?

1014
00:35:05,290 --> 00:35:06,950
Claw marks on my sides.

1015
00:35:07,270 --> 00:35:08,490
So it left physical marks.

1016
00:35:08,610 --> 00:35:09,170
Oh, they're still there.

1017
00:35:09,310 --> 00:35:09,670
Yeah, yeah.

1018
00:35:09,850 --> 00:35:10,590
A year and a half ago.

1019
00:35:10,910 --> 00:35:11,890
Was your wife terrified?

1020
00:35:12,130 --> 00:35:12,770
I know you were.

1021
00:35:12,970 --> 00:35:13,370
I wasn't.

1022
00:35:13,410 --> 00:35:14,050
I was totally confused.

1023
00:35:14,170 --> 00:35:16,090
I woke up and I couldn't breathe and

1024
00:35:16,090 --> 00:35:17,550
I thought I was going to suffocate.

1025
00:35:17,790 --> 00:35:19,150
And I walked around outside.

1026
00:35:19,410 --> 00:35:21,030
And then I walked in and my wife

1027
00:35:21,030 --> 00:35:22,090
and dogs had not woken up.

1028
00:35:22,130 --> 00:35:23,410
And they're very light sleepers.

1029
00:35:23,690 --> 00:35:26,190
And then I had these terrible pains on

1030
00:35:26,190 --> 00:35:27,550
my ribcage and on my shoulder.

1031
00:35:27,550 --> 00:35:29,470
And I was just in my boxer shorts

1032
00:35:29,470 --> 00:35:30,530
and I went and flipped on the light

1033
00:35:30,530 --> 00:35:31,210
in the bathroom.

1034
00:35:31,290 --> 00:35:33,130
And I had four claw marks on either

1035
00:35:33,130 --> 00:35:35,570
side underneath my arms and on my left

1036
00:35:35,570 --> 00:35:35,930
shoulder.

1037
00:35:36,390 --> 00:35:36,770
And they were bleeding.

1038
00:35:37,770 --> 00:35:39,030
Wait, they were bleeding?

1039
00:35:39,310 --> 00:35:39,910
They were bleeding, yeah.

1040
00:35:40,350 --> 00:35:41,430
They were actual claw marks.

1041
00:35:41,830 --> 00:35:42,870
And I sleep on my side.

1042
00:35:43,050 --> 00:35:44,570
So I wasn't clawing myself.

1043
00:35:45,050 --> 00:35:45,810
I don't have long nails.

1044
00:35:46,950 --> 00:35:48,550
And they didn't fit my hands anyway.

1045
00:35:48,890 --> 00:35:49,870
But, yeah, that happened.

1046
00:35:50,070 --> 00:35:52,090
So, I'm not from a world where things

1047
00:35:52,090 --> 00:35:52,570
like that happen.

1048
00:35:52,630 --> 00:35:53,910
I never heard of anything like that happening

1049
00:35:53,910 --> 00:35:54,270
before.

1050
00:35:54,510 --> 00:35:56,150
I had no idea what that was.

1051
00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:57,630
I knew it was spiritual immediately.

1052
00:35:58,650 --> 00:35:58,790
Hmm.

1053
00:36:00,430 --> 00:36:00,830
Okay.

1054
00:36:01,150 --> 00:36:01,270
It goes on.

1055
00:36:01,530 --> 00:36:02,130
I've heard.

1056
00:36:02,210 --> 00:36:02,810
I think he told.

1057
00:36:03,030 --> 00:36:04,410
I think he mentioned a version of this

1058
00:36:04,410 --> 00:36:06,130
on Joe Rogan, I think.

1059
00:36:06,590 --> 00:36:09,250
Maybe, but let's go to Part 2 and

1060
00:36:09,250 --> 00:36:09,710
then 3.

1061
00:36:09,810 --> 00:36:10,430
They're both short.

1062
00:36:10,730 --> 00:36:12,010
I'm not from a, what do they call

1063
00:36:12,010 --> 00:36:15,250
it, faith tradition that talks about things like

1064
00:36:15,250 --> 00:36:16,710
that or even acknowledges their existence.

1065
00:36:16,910 --> 00:36:18,010
Like there's nothing like that.

1066
00:36:18,130 --> 00:36:20,130
I've never heard anybody say anything like that

1067
00:36:20,130 --> 00:36:20,610
in my whole life.

1068
00:36:20,810 --> 00:36:22,090
What was the next day like?

1069
00:36:22,090 --> 00:36:24,010
Well, the next morning, I woke up, and

1070
00:36:24,010 --> 00:36:25,730
I thought that was the weirdest dream I've

1071
00:36:25,730 --> 00:36:26,110
ever had.

1072
00:36:26,570 --> 00:36:28,090
And then I saw blood on my sheets,

1073
00:36:28,170 --> 00:36:29,450
and I realized that was not a dream

1074
00:36:29,450 --> 00:36:29,810
at all.

1075
00:36:30,150 --> 00:36:31,330
I was like, oh, my assistant was like

1076
00:36:31,330 --> 00:36:33,450
the only evangelical Christian I know, you know,

1077
00:36:33,450 --> 00:36:36,210
well enough to call something bizarre like that.

1078
00:36:36,410 --> 00:36:37,590
Totally bizarre like that.

1079
00:36:38,430 --> 00:36:40,110
And she said, oh, yeah, no, no, that

1080
00:36:40,110 --> 00:36:40,450
happens.

1081
00:36:40,550 --> 00:36:41,790
Yeah, people are attacked in their bed by

1082
00:36:41,790 --> 00:36:42,070
demons.

1083
00:36:42,550 --> 00:36:42,910
What?

1084
00:36:45,970 --> 00:36:46,330
Wow.

1085
00:36:48,730 --> 00:36:49,090
Yes.

1086
00:36:49,090 --> 00:36:53,030
Which is nonsense because he's Episcopal, and they

1087
00:36:53,030 --> 00:36:53,850
do talk about it.

1088
00:36:53,930 --> 00:36:54,710
So let's go to 3.

1089
00:36:55,030 --> 00:36:57,170
And I'm not pretending to understand that.

1090
00:36:57,250 --> 00:36:58,490
I can only say what happened to me,

1091
00:36:58,530 --> 00:36:59,910
and that did happen to me.

1092
00:37:00,190 --> 00:37:02,950
And then I was seized with this very

1093
00:37:02,950 --> 00:37:05,630
intense desire to read the Bible, which I

1094
00:37:05,630 --> 00:37:06,270
then started.

1095
00:37:06,710 --> 00:37:08,530
Without any study aids or anything, I bought

1096
00:37:08,530 --> 00:37:09,810
a Bible that didn't have any.

1097
00:37:09,870 --> 00:37:12,010
I'm not interested in editorializing in the Bible.

1098
00:37:12,070 --> 00:37:13,010
I just want to read it and see

1099
00:37:13,010 --> 00:37:13,810
what's in there myself.

1100
00:37:13,810 --> 00:37:15,990
I have very low levels of trust for

1101
00:37:15,990 --> 00:37:18,150
Christian pastors, most of whom, you know, I'm

1102
00:37:18,150 --> 00:37:19,090
just not a fan at all.

1103
00:37:19,270 --> 00:37:23,610
So right there, when he's, there's no reason

1104
00:37:23,610 --> 00:37:25,390
for him to say, I don't need to

1105
00:37:25,390 --> 00:37:26,010
study Bible.

1106
00:37:26,290 --> 00:37:29,490
I think he was set up or he's

1107
00:37:29,490 --> 00:37:31,850
being set up or he did this purposely

1108
00:37:31,850 --> 00:37:37,510
to bring in the Schofield Bible conspiracy.

1109
00:37:39,170 --> 00:37:43,710
Maybe or maybe, since it's common across religions

1110
00:37:43,710 --> 00:37:46,850
that there are fallen angels and symbolic monsters,

1111
00:37:47,710 --> 00:37:52,410
entities associated with destruction, ethical lapses and spiritual

1112
00:37:52,410 --> 00:37:53,930
struggle for human souls.

1113
00:37:54,270 --> 00:37:56,110
I wonder why did he go back to

1114
00:37:56,110 --> 00:37:56,570
bed?

1115
00:37:59,230 --> 00:38:02,470
Maybe he popped a Zen and was doing

1116
00:38:02,470 --> 00:38:03,090
just fine.

1117
00:38:03,190 --> 00:38:03,610
I don't know.

1118
00:38:03,610 --> 00:38:06,250
But not seeking out religion.

1119
00:38:06,310 --> 00:38:08,210
I mean, I'm sorry if I, during the

1120
00:38:08,210 --> 00:38:10,670
night, if I suddenly woke up after being

1121
00:38:10,670 --> 00:38:14,650
visited by a beast, I would certainly seek

1122
00:38:14,650 --> 00:38:15,330
out guidance.

1123
00:38:15,710 --> 00:38:17,730
I wouldn't just reject it all.

1124
00:38:17,910 --> 00:38:20,810
And everything that he said since this about

1125
00:38:20,810 --> 00:38:22,770
the Bible, he is completely wrong.

1126
00:38:22,910 --> 00:38:25,150
He attributes stuff to Moses that Moses didn't

1127
00:38:25,150 --> 00:38:25,470
do.

1128
00:38:26,310 --> 00:38:29,110
It's amazing how much he's twisting the words.

1129
00:38:29,110 --> 00:38:31,610
Oh, well, if you listen to the podcast

1130
00:38:31,610 --> 00:38:34,610
with Pastor Jimmy, I mean, he's saying crazy

1131
00:38:34,610 --> 00:38:34,990
stuff.

1132
00:38:35,130 --> 00:38:38,470
And I just need to reiterate that, yes,

1133
00:38:38,550 --> 00:38:41,890
1948 came from the Balfour Declaration of 1917.

1134
00:38:43,190 --> 00:38:47,350
And it was Britain, Britain created Israel.

1135
00:38:47,510 --> 00:38:48,910
They created all the, hey, they had the

1136
00:38:48,910 --> 00:38:50,810
Pico-Sykes Agreement, Britain and France.

1137
00:38:50,870 --> 00:38:52,550
They just drew lines on a napkin.

1138
00:38:52,890 --> 00:38:54,890
And we'll call that Iraq, Iran, we'll call

1139
00:38:54,890 --> 00:38:56,090
that Syria, Jordan.

1140
00:38:56,090 --> 00:38:58,150
And then later, oh, we're going to put

1141
00:38:58,150 --> 00:38:58,830
Israel here.

1142
00:38:58,870 --> 00:38:59,830
It's going to be fantastic.

1143
00:39:00,390 --> 00:39:01,690
And people say, oh, that was created by

1144
00:39:01,690 --> 00:39:02,150
Zionists.

1145
00:39:02,210 --> 00:39:03,610
Yeah, it was created by the British.

1146
00:39:04,270 --> 00:39:06,530
And the whole idea was to have the

1147
00:39:06,530 --> 00:39:09,390
Jews there to be on both sides of

1148
00:39:09,390 --> 00:39:11,070
the, you know, on the Sinai, to keep

1149
00:39:11,070 --> 00:39:12,130
Egypt in check.

1150
00:39:12,150 --> 00:39:13,210
And what was Britain doing?

1151
00:39:13,270 --> 00:39:15,610
They were funding the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.

1152
00:39:15,810 --> 00:39:19,230
This has always been about protecting the waterways

1153
00:39:19,230 --> 00:39:20,030
and the oil.

1154
00:39:20,030 --> 00:39:24,610
And unfortunately, I find it unfortunate, we do

1155
00:39:24,610 --> 00:39:28,390
have a lot of politicians, Christians, who are,

1156
00:39:28,790 --> 00:39:32,890
they're so deeply entrenched into the fulfilling of

1157
00:39:32,890 --> 00:39:38,070
biblical prophecy of Israel that, yeah, they definitely

1158
00:39:38,070 --> 00:39:40,190
feel that, oh, we have to protect Israel

1159
00:39:40,190 --> 00:39:41,290
at all costs.

1160
00:39:41,630 --> 00:39:43,890
I don't think Trump is one of them.

1161
00:39:44,510 --> 00:39:46,470
I really, he's pragmatic.

1162
00:39:46,470 --> 00:39:48,730
He'd even say, you know, the prayer breakfast

1163
00:39:48,730 --> 00:39:50,130
is, I don't think I'm going to heaven.

1164
00:39:50,770 --> 00:39:52,950
I don't think I belong there.

1165
00:39:53,310 --> 00:39:55,750
Because he is about profit.

1166
00:39:55,950 --> 00:39:59,470
He is about making America wealthy and prosperous

1167
00:39:59,470 --> 00:40:00,450
again.

1168
00:40:01,610 --> 00:40:06,210
And so, yes, there are definitely, definitely politicians

1169
00:40:06,210 --> 00:40:10,490
who are all in on the dispensationalism, all

1170
00:40:10,490 --> 00:40:12,850
in on Israel being the fulfillment of prophecy.

1171
00:40:13,310 --> 00:40:15,250
But I don't think that's why Trump is

1172
00:40:15,250 --> 00:40:15,850
doing this.

1173
00:40:15,850 --> 00:40:17,890
And I also don't think that Israel has

1174
00:40:17,890 --> 00:40:18,970
blackmailed him.

1175
00:40:19,190 --> 00:40:21,730
I mean, so Tucker, Tucker is good friends

1176
00:40:21,730 --> 00:40:22,490
with Joe Kent.

1177
00:40:23,130 --> 00:40:26,770
So we get Tucker being investigated by the

1178
00:40:26,770 --> 00:40:29,390
CIA, Kent investigated by the FBI.

1179
00:40:30,230 --> 00:40:31,130
Kent resigns.

1180
00:40:31,250 --> 00:40:32,630
He says two things.

1181
00:40:33,130 --> 00:40:35,590
He says Iran posed no threat.

1182
00:40:35,590 --> 00:40:38,430
And he said, well, you know, Israel is

1183
00:40:38,430 --> 00:40:39,630
the one that dragged us into it.

1184
00:40:39,650 --> 00:40:42,050
And he shows up on Tucker's show yesterday.

1185
00:40:42,050 --> 00:40:44,730
Because the attacks on him have prevented an

1186
00:40:44,730 --> 00:40:47,210
honest conversation about what he's actually saying.

1187
00:40:47,290 --> 00:40:49,330
And what he's saying is, and he says

1188
00:40:49,330 --> 00:40:50,690
it clearly, and we're going to ask him

1189
00:40:50,690 --> 00:40:51,950
about it directly in just a moment.

1190
00:40:52,630 --> 00:40:54,270
Israel got us into this war.

1191
00:40:54,670 --> 00:40:56,770
Its lobby in the United States pressured the

1192
00:40:56,770 --> 00:40:57,130
president.

1193
00:40:57,470 --> 00:40:59,810
And its prime minister in Israel told the

1194
00:40:59,810 --> 00:41:01,270
president, we're going without you.

1195
00:41:01,750 --> 00:41:04,490
Join us, because if you don't, your troops

1196
00:41:04,490 --> 00:41:05,890
in the region, interests in the region, your

1197
00:41:05,890 --> 00:41:07,050
citizens in the region will all be at

1198
00:41:07,050 --> 00:41:07,210
risk.

1199
00:41:07,250 --> 00:41:07,810
You have no choice.

1200
00:41:08,270 --> 00:41:09,010
They led the way.

1201
00:41:09,610 --> 00:41:10,710
That's Joe Kent's position.

1202
00:41:10,710 --> 00:41:13,450
And rather than push back against that and

1203
00:41:13,450 --> 00:41:15,550
say, no, actually, he's wrong, they're telling you

1204
00:41:15,550 --> 00:41:16,030
to shut up.

1205
00:41:16,210 --> 00:41:17,290
And why are they doing that?

1206
00:41:17,350 --> 00:41:19,290
Well, there's only one reason people ever become

1207
00:41:19,290 --> 00:41:21,010
hysterical and slanderous.

1208
00:41:21,130 --> 00:41:23,370
Start screaming at you rather than answering you.

1209
00:41:23,430 --> 00:41:24,090
It's because they're lying.

1210
00:41:24,430 --> 00:41:25,330
Oh, yes, of course.

1211
00:41:25,470 --> 00:41:26,790
Of course, because they're lying.

1212
00:41:27,170 --> 00:41:28,590
So he gets Kent on.

1213
00:41:29,070 --> 00:41:31,350
And I'm glad that we talked about Rubio

1214
00:41:31,350 --> 00:41:36,570
and his statement, which was so overtly clear

1215
00:41:36,570 --> 00:41:37,970
what he was trying to communicate.

1216
00:41:37,970 --> 00:41:42,550
And after I talked to former JAG military

1217
00:41:42,550 --> 00:41:46,650
lawyer, Rob, the constitutional lawyer, he agreed.

1218
00:41:46,910 --> 00:41:48,330
So it's not just me.

1219
00:41:48,490 --> 00:41:51,890
He agreed that this was a brilliant move

1220
00:41:51,890 --> 00:41:56,190
because they filed with the United Nations under

1221
00:41:56,190 --> 00:41:57,470
Section 51.

1222
00:41:57,470 --> 00:42:01,970
They filed that they were protecting the interests

1223
00:42:01,970 --> 00:42:05,830
of the United States after Israel attacked Iran

1224
00:42:05,830 --> 00:42:09,290
because they did not want Congress blocking anything

1225
00:42:09,290 --> 00:42:10,190
that they're doing.

1226
00:42:10,310 --> 00:42:12,070
You notice you don't hear about the War

1227
00:42:12,070 --> 00:42:15,430
Powers Resolution anymore because it doesn't apply, because

1228
00:42:15,430 --> 00:42:18,490
the lawyers know that the paperwork is filed.

1229
00:42:19,130 --> 00:42:21,070
And Rubio had to.

1230
00:42:21,270 --> 00:42:24,510
He, in essence, was providing cover.

1231
00:42:24,510 --> 00:42:27,830
And exactly as I thought, as exactly as

1232
00:42:27,830 --> 00:42:30,650
people were spiking the ball in the end

1233
00:42:30,650 --> 00:42:33,650
zone, Tucker and Kent used this Rubio speech

1234
00:42:33,650 --> 00:42:36,610
as clear proof that Israel dragged us into

1235
00:42:36,610 --> 00:42:36,850
this.

1236
00:42:36,930 --> 00:42:38,750
And I see you weak trolls saying the

1237
00:42:38,750 --> 00:42:39,770
same thing in the troll room.

1238
00:42:39,970 --> 00:42:41,550
It's important to stop and say, here's what

1239
00:42:41,550 --> 00:42:42,610
we actually know.

1240
00:42:42,690 --> 00:42:44,630
So I'd like now, if we could, just

1241
00:42:44,630 --> 00:42:46,190
to play one of the statements that you

1242
00:42:46,190 --> 00:42:46,730
alluded to.

1243
00:42:46,830 --> 00:42:48,450
And that's from Marco Rubio, the secretary of

1244
00:42:48,450 --> 00:42:48,550
state.

1245
00:42:48,550 --> 00:42:50,390
And this was shortly after this war commenced.

1246
00:42:50,390 --> 00:42:53,970
And he was explaining, as is his habit,

1247
00:42:54,070 --> 00:42:56,270
in a thoughtful, precise way, why.

1248
00:42:56,830 --> 00:42:58,550
Here's Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

1249
00:42:59,050 --> 00:43:00,750
And so the president made the very wise

1250
00:43:00,750 --> 00:43:01,190
decision.

1251
00:43:01,610 --> 00:43:02,950
We knew that there was going to be

1252
00:43:02,950 --> 00:43:03,870
an Israeli action.

1253
00:43:04,150 --> 00:43:05,910
We knew that that would precipitate an attack

1254
00:43:05,910 --> 00:43:07,090
against American forces.

1255
00:43:07,390 --> 00:43:09,150
And we knew that if we didn't preemptively

1256
00:43:09,150 --> 00:43:11,190
go after them before they launched those attacks,

1257
00:43:11,510 --> 00:43:14,370
we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even

1258
00:43:14,370 --> 00:43:15,570
higher those killed.

1259
00:43:15,690 --> 00:43:16,770
And then we would all be here answering

1260
00:43:16,770 --> 00:43:18,590
questions about why we knew that and didn't

1261
00:43:18,590 --> 00:43:18,910
act.

1262
00:43:20,030 --> 00:43:20,470
Okay.

1263
00:43:20,610 --> 00:43:24,290
So that is his almost contemporaneous explanation.

1264
00:43:24,730 --> 00:43:25,550
And it's not offhand.

1265
00:43:25,790 --> 00:43:27,010
He reasons it out.

1266
00:43:27,090 --> 00:43:28,570
He explains there's a logic chain there.

1267
00:43:28,610 --> 00:43:31,090
And he says, we knew not that Iran

1268
00:43:31,090 --> 00:43:31,990
was going to attack.

1269
00:43:32,090 --> 00:43:32,830
He did not say that.

1270
00:43:32,930 --> 00:43:35,030
He said we knew that Israel was going

1271
00:43:35,030 --> 00:43:36,130
to attack Iran.

1272
00:43:36,170 --> 00:43:39,230
And in retaliation for those attacks by Israel

1273
00:43:39,230 --> 00:43:42,430
against Iran, Iran might attack American forces.

1274
00:43:43,270 --> 00:43:45,570
So the imminent threat that the Secretary of

1275
00:43:45,570 --> 00:43:47,470
State is describing is not from Iran.

1276
00:43:47,590 --> 00:43:48,490
It's from Israel.

1277
00:43:49,250 --> 00:43:49,590
Exactly.

1278
00:43:49,870 --> 00:43:51,370
And I think this speaks to the broader

1279
00:43:51,370 --> 00:43:51,870
issue.

1280
00:43:52,510 --> 00:43:54,430
Who is in charge of our policy in

1281
00:43:54,430 --> 00:43:54,990
the Middle East?

1282
00:43:55,070 --> 00:43:56,490
Who is in charge of when we decide

1283
00:43:56,490 --> 00:43:57,290
to go to war or not?

1284
00:43:57,330 --> 00:44:00,170
In this case, with what the secretary described

1285
00:44:00,170 --> 00:44:01,590
and later on the president, later on the

1286
00:44:01,590 --> 00:44:03,030
Speaker of the House and the way the

1287
00:44:03,030 --> 00:44:06,450
events played out, the Israelis drove the decision

1288
00:44:06,450 --> 00:44:09,410
to take this action, which we knew would

1289
00:44:09,410 --> 00:44:11,410
set off a series of events.

1290
00:44:11,410 --> 00:44:13,910
Meaning the Iranians would retaliate.

1291
00:44:15,330 --> 00:44:17,710
It's so unbelievable to me.

1292
00:44:18,010 --> 00:44:18,250
Yeah.

1293
00:44:18,610 --> 00:44:21,450
If it was truly – I can see

1294
00:44:21,450 --> 00:44:23,590
people say, oh, he's got a Zionist gun

1295
00:44:23,590 --> 00:44:24,510
pointed at his head.

1296
00:44:24,590 --> 00:44:25,650
That's why he's doing it.

1297
00:44:25,730 --> 00:44:26,730
The guy got shot.

1298
00:44:26,830 --> 00:44:27,470
He doesn't care.

1299
00:44:27,770 --> 00:44:28,590
He does not care.

1300
00:44:28,670 --> 00:44:29,590
He doesn't care about the midterms.

1301
00:44:30,130 --> 00:44:31,330
He doesn't care about anything.

1302
00:44:31,870 --> 00:44:37,010
He cares about getting the British system out

1303
00:44:37,010 --> 00:44:37,790
of America.

1304
00:44:38,770 --> 00:44:40,470
It surrounds us.

1305
00:44:40,970 --> 00:44:42,590
What do you think Canada is?

1306
00:44:43,230 --> 00:44:46,270
They have been running the oil business, the

1307
00:44:46,270 --> 00:44:50,250
shipping business, the shipping insurance business for 100

1308
00:44:50,250 --> 00:44:50,930
years.

1309
00:44:51,650 --> 00:44:54,930
And we've always been the dummies who've protected

1310
00:44:54,930 --> 00:44:56,550
them when it came down to it.

1311
00:44:56,610 --> 00:44:58,290
Oh, we'll go into World War I.

1312
00:44:58,390 --> 00:45:00,250
We'll go into World War II.

1313
00:45:00,590 --> 00:45:02,950
And Trump is saying, no, we are going

1314
00:45:02,950 --> 00:45:04,530
to stop it and we are going to

1315
00:45:04,530 --> 00:45:05,170
control it.

1316
00:45:05,650 --> 00:45:07,050
That is what's happening here.

1317
00:45:07,050 --> 00:45:09,110
And Israel has not – so far they've

1318
00:45:09,110 --> 00:45:10,050
only had downside.

1319
00:45:10,310 --> 00:45:11,770
They've only got bombs incoming.

1320
00:45:12,330 --> 00:45:14,590
They only have bad things happening.

1321
00:45:14,730 --> 00:45:16,330
It has not benefited them.

1322
00:45:16,710 --> 00:45:19,170
And now this was the kicker, what Tucker

1323
00:45:19,170 --> 00:45:19,670
says here.

1324
00:45:19,850 --> 00:45:21,330
So you've already seen in the wake of

1325
00:45:21,330 --> 00:45:25,090
a recent terror attack, neocons used that attack

1326
00:45:25,090 --> 00:45:28,010
as a way to try and censor, shut

1327
00:45:28,010 --> 00:45:31,150
down, maybe even imprison critics of the decision

1328
00:45:31,150 --> 00:45:32,470
to go to war in Iran.

1329
00:45:33,850 --> 00:45:36,530
So it's almost like you control both sides.

1330
00:45:36,530 --> 00:45:38,750
Did you hear what he said there?

1331
00:45:39,550 --> 00:45:39,710
Yeah.

1332
00:45:40,210 --> 00:45:42,810
He said, we killed a religious leader, so

1333
00:45:42,810 --> 00:45:44,250
now it's a religious war.

1334
00:45:45,350 --> 00:45:45,830
What?

1335
00:45:46,590 --> 00:45:48,030
Are you kidding me now?

1336
00:45:48,150 --> 00:45:49,870
This is not a religious leader.

1337
00:45:50,290 --> 00:45:51,330
This is a nut job.

1338
00:45:51,350 --> 00:45:54,030
As a way to try and censor, shut

1339
00:45:54,030 --> 00:45:57,150
down, maybe even imprison critics of the decision

1340
00:45:57,150 --> 00:45:58,510
to go to war in Iran.

1341
00:45:59,910 --> 00:46:02,570
So it's almost like you control both sides.

1342
00:46:02,570 --> 00:46:05,850
You advocate for a war which inevitably stokes

1343
00:46:05,850 --> 00:46:08,410
religious hatred because you advocate for the killing

1344
00:46:08,410 --> 00:46:09,330
of a religious leader.

1345
00:46:10,030 --> 00:46:13,130
So you're helping to create religious war, permanent

1346
00:46:13,130 --> 00:46:14,410
generational religious war.

1347
00:46:15,150 --> 00:46:17,350
And then when your country or the country

1348
00:46:17,350 --> 00:46:18,410
you happen to be living in that you

1349
00:46:18,410 --> 00:46:20,990
don't really care about feels the effects when

1350
00:46:20,990 --> 00:46:22,790
Americans are killed as a result of that,

1351
00:46:22,970 --> 00:46:27,130
you use their deaths to justify the silencing

1352
00:46:27,130 --> 00:46:28,490
of people who criticize to you.

1353
00:46:28,790 --> 00:46:29,430
Does that make sense?

1354
00:46:29,810 --> 00:46:30,310
No, exactly.

1355
00:46:30,310 --> 00:46:30,970
Yeah.

1356
00:46:31,650 --> 00:46:33,530
So how much are you concerned we're going

1357
00:46:33,530 --> 00:46:34,270
to see more of that?

1358
00:46:34,690 --> 00:46:35,310
I'm very concerned.

1359
00:46:35,510 --> 00:46:39,210
I pray we won't, but the odds are

1360
00:46:39,210 --> 00:46:41,210
not in our favor just considering how open

1361
00:46:41,210 --> 00:46:42,050
our borders have been.

1362
00:46:43,130 --> 00:46:45,370
Obviously, this type of propaganda radicalizes people.

1363
00:46:45,590 --> 00:46:46,670
Again, we've already seen attacks.

1364
00:46:46,790 --> 00:46:48,970
We saw attacks inspired by the conflict in

1365
00:46:48,970 --> 00:46:49,270
Gaza.

1366
00:46:49,990 --> 00:46:50,910
So I think we're going to see more

1367
00:46:50,910 --> 00:46:51,270
of this.

1368
00:46:51,270 --> 00:46:54,670
I made the mistake of opening up Twitter

1369
00:46:54,670 --> 00:46:55,410
a couple times today.

1370
00:46:55,790 --> 00:46:59,570
There's people calling for dissenting voices to be

1371
00:46:59,570 --> 00:47:01,630
charged, to be locked up, et cetera.

1372
00:47:02,070 --> 00:47:03,290
And they may be.

1373
00:47:03,510 --> 00:47:05,050
The erosion of civil rights, I think, during

1374
00:47:05,050 --> 00:47:06,710
a time of conflict is nothing new.

1375
00:47:06,790 --> 00:47:07,830
Unfortunately, we've seen it before.

1376
00:47:07,950 --> 00:47:08,390
It's the rule.

1377
00:47:08,990 --> 00:47:10,650
This is the part I don't understand.

1378
00:47:10,770 --> 00:47:11,990
Who's being silenced?

1379
00:47:12,870 --> 00:47:16,010
Well, besides that, I have never heard anyone

1380
00:47:16,010 --> 00:47:19,150
since Tucker's been on his own show has

1381
00:47:19,150 --> 00:47:20,710
pushed back against him.

1382
00:47:22,050 --> 00:47:23,710
Nobody pushes back.

1383
00:47:23,870 --> 00:47:25,810
It's not like he's got any guardrails.

1384
00:47:26,330 --> 00:47:27,650
I hate to use that term, but it's

1385
00:47:27,650 --> 00:47:30,190
like nobody is hauling him in, and he's

1386
00:47:30,190 --> 00:47:31,630
getting nuttier and nuttier.

1387
00:47:32,170 --> 00:47:33,770
Well, I think he's an agent.

1388
00:47:33,950 --> 00:47:36,070
I think he is an agent for Britain,

1389
00:47:36,670 --> 00:47:39,950
and he is at the genesis of all

1390
00:47:39,950 --> 00:47:40,310
of this.

1391
00:47:40,310 --> 00:47:43,230
The whole Charlie Kirk thing, he's drawing that

1392
00:47:43,230 --> 00:47:44,330
all towards him.

1393
00:47:44,530 --> 00:47:47,470
He's saying, oh, the whole problem is that

1394
00:47:47,470 --> 00:47:53,710
Charlie wouldn't bar me from speaking at TPUSA.

1395
00:47:53,990 --> 00:47:55,170
The Jews hated it.

1396
00:47:55,390 --> 00:47:58,310
This is what the British crown, this is

1397
00:47:58,310 --> 00:48:00,150
what the city of London does.

1398
00:48:00,270 --> 00:48:04,030
And I am connecting Charlie Kirk's murder to

1399
00:48:04,030 --> 00:48:04,910
all of this.

1400
00:48:04,910 --> 00:48:09,490
And it's successful because it has completely driven

1401
00:48:09,490 --> 00:48:12,830
a schism into the conservative right in the

1402
00:48:12,830 --> 00:48:13,590
United States.

1403
00:48:14,150 --> 00:48:16,410
And it's those who think Israel did everything

1404
00:48:16,410 --> 00:48:18,150
and those who don't.

1405
00:48:18,810 --> 00:48:21,470
Well, now I understand why Carlson was visited

1406
00:48:21,470 --> 00:48:22,770
by a beast in the middle of the

1407
00:48:22,770 --> 00:48:23,050
night.

1408
00:48:23,750 --> 00:48:26,630
Now, I will say, as a Christian, I

1409
00:48:26,630 --> 00:48:28,190
got to say Ephesians 6.

1410
00:48:29,350 --> 00:48:31,590
We do not wrestle against flesh and blood,

1411
00:48:31,710 --> 00:48:34,010
but against the rulers, against authorities, against the

1412
00:48:34,010 --> 00:48:36,870
cosmic powers over this present darkness and the

1413
00:48:36,870 --> 00:48:39,510
spiritual forces of evil and heavenly places.

1414
00:48:39,610 --> 00:48:40,830
I truly believe that.

1415
00:48:41,170 --> 00:48:44,770
I believe there's constant spiritual warfare going on.

1416
00:48:45,070 --> 00:48:48,590
I'm just not sure what attacked Tucker, if

1417
00:48:48,590 --> 00:48:49,310
you know what I mean.

1418
00:48:51,470 --> 00:48:52,950
Well, we'll see.

1419
00:48:52,950 --> 00:48:55,570
And so I'm going to make it even

1420
00:48:55,570 --> 00:48:57,430
crazier because we're all nuts here in the

1421
00:48:57,430 --> 00:48:57,950
Hill Country.

1422
00:48:58,090 --> 00:48:59,670
You know, Roseanne Barr moved to the Hill

1423
00:48:59,670 --> 00:49:00,010
Country.

1424
00:49:00,250 --> 00:49:03,190
She lives right outside of Fredericksburg.

1425
00:49:03,390 --> 00:49:04,630
I see her from time to time.

1426
00:49:05,130 --> 00:49:07,350
She's a very odd woman.

1427
00:49:07,790 --> 00:49:10,050
You know, she's five foot one, maybe five

1428
00:49:10,050 --> 00:49:10,430
feet tall.

1429
00:49:10,430 --> 00:49:10,950
Oh, yeah, she's tiny.

1430
00:49:11,550 --> 00:49:12,670
Yeah, she's tiny.

1431
00:49:12,890 --> 00:49:14,810
And I was introduced to her and she

1432
00:49:14,810 --> 00:49:15,830
doesn't shake hands.

1433
00:49:16,370 --> 00:49:17,370
She shakes arm.

1434
00:49:18,450 --> 00:49:22,210
So, you know, like a brother handshake where

1435
00:49:22,210 --> 00:49:24,910
you grab each other's wrist and you don't

1436
00:49:24,910 --> 00:49:25,610
shake hands.

1437
00:49:25,710 --> 00:49:26,330
You grab the wrist.

1438
00:49:26,390 --> 00:49:27,710
I don't shake hands.

1439
00:49:27,790 --> 00:49:28,670
It was very strange.

1440
00:49:29,510 --> 00:49:29,750
Yeah.

1441
00:49:30,130 --> 00:49:32,810
But she was on with Beanie Boy, with

1442
00:49:32,810 --> 00:49:35,210
Tim Pool, and she gets it.

1443
00:49:35,590 --> 00:49:38,470
Well, the truth is that the royal British

1444
00:49:38,470 --> 00:49:40,790
Empire is behind all of it.

1445
00:49:40,990 --> 00:49:41,330
Uh-oh.

1446
00:49:41,490 --> 00:49:41,870
Oh, no.

1447
00:49:42,130 --> 00:49:42,570
Let's go.

1448
00:49:42,910 --> 00:49:43,430
Let's do it.

1449
00:49:43,470 --> 00:49:43,950
Tell me about it.

1450
00:49:43,950 --> 00:49:46,050
And that is what Trump has, you know,

1451
00:49:46,210 --> 00:49:48,950
pretty much kicked in the guts of.

1452
00:49:49,690 --> 00:49:52,330
And that's because of Prince Andrew and Jeffrey

1453
00:49:52,330 --> 00:49:54,330
Epstein and all the banks of City of

1454
00:49:54,330 --> 00:49:54,670
London.

1455
00:49:55,150 --> 00:49:57,350
That's what's really coming down.

1456
00:49:57,930 --> 00:50:01,210
And, of course, Iran is a great, you

1457
00:50:01,210 --> 00:50:03,830
know, money laundering center of all of that.

1458
00:50:04,130 --> 00:50:06,810
And it sells, you know, 20 percent of

1459
00:50:06,810 --> 00:50:07,970
its gas to China.

1460
00:50:08,130 --> 00:50:11,770
So Trump has put them all, including Cuba.

1461
00:50:11,770 --> 00:50:15,370
He's put their whole network that nobody ever

1462
00:50:15,370 --> 00:50:17,010
talks about because they don't want to know

1463
00:50:17,010 --> 00:50:21,770
the truth of how it's just British imperialism.

1464
00:50:22,810 --> 00:50:25,190
Standard oil is a better word for it

1465
00:50:25,190 --> 00:50:26,020
than British imperialism.

1466
00:50:26,630 --> 00:50:28,570
They'll go anywhere for the oil.

1467
00:50:28,570 --> 00:50:31,930
They'll make up fake states all over the

1468
00:50:31,930 --> 00:50:34,730
world and then sell weapons to both sides

1469
00:50:34,730 --> 00:50:37,930
of every skirmish because they make money for

1470
00:50:37,930 --> 00:50:40,970
their stock markets housed in Basel, Switzerland, at

1471
00:50:40,970 --> 00:50:44,170
the Bank of International Settlements, where they decide

1472
00:50:44,170 --> 00:50:46,950
and fund every war because they make money

1473
00:50:46,950 --> 00:50:47,850
on war.

1474
00:50:47,850 --> 00:50:54,970
They are the military, industrial, pharma, whatever, medical,

1475
00:50:55,310 --> 00:50:55,650
everything.

1476
00:50:55,870 --> 00:50:59,550
They are consolidated raw power and they are

1477
00:50:59,550 --> 00:51:00,270
royal.

1478
00:51:00,890 --> 00:51:02,650
And, you know, come on.

1479
00:51:02,970 --> 00:51:04,390
And in the past 20 or 30 years,

1480
00:51:04,490 --> 00:51:06,210
things have been degrading internationally.

1481
00:51:06,630 --> 00:51:07,910
And I think we need to be careful.

1482
00:51:08,090 --> 00:51:09,050
It's more complex than that.

1483
00:51:09,130 --> 00:51:12,050
Again, it's like we same issue that the

1484
00:51:12,050 --> 00:51:14,190
anti-Semites are making, blaming Jews for everything.

1485
00:51:14,410 --> 00:51:15,670
We need to be careful not to fall

1486
00:51:15,670 --> 00:51:16,050
into the same.

1487
00:51:16,050 --> 00:51:18,990
Now, we can easily blame the banks of

1488
00:51:18,990 --> 00:51:19,970
the city of London.

1489
00:51:20,490 --> 00:51:20,970
Absolutely.

1490
00:51:21,150 --> 00:51:21,890
I think that's more true.

1491
00:51:21,970 --> 00:51:23,930
I agree with that more than the than

1492
00:51:23,930 --> 00:51:26,270
the royal family specifically.

1493
00:51:26,470 --> 00:51:28,830
But the royal family, you know, is the

1494
00:51:28,830 --> 00:51:30,170
front office for that.

1495
00:51:30,390 --> 00:51:31,210
Let's be real.

1496
00:51:32,210 --> 00:51:34,510
I think it's it's involved.

1497
00:51:34,670 --> 00:51:35,250
It has historic.

1498
00:51:35,330 --> 00:51:36,650
Yes, it has tendrils everywhere.

1499
00:51:36,670 --> 00:51:38,730
But it's just there's no one I think

1500
00:51:38,730 --> 00:51:41,250
competent, competent enough to be doing that.

1501
00:51:41,390 --> 00:51:43,150
Listen to this Brit trying to defend them.

1502
00:51:43,150 --> 00:51:44,270
Most of them are just sort of like

1503
00:51:44,270 --> 00:51:45,450
they're in a kind of retirement home.

1504
00:51:45,790 --> 00:51:49,190
Generally, the entire royal family, the the prominent

1505
00:51:49,190 --> 00:51:53,610
members like the royals of this world own

1506
00:51:53,610 --> 00:51:57,330
the central bank of all central banks, which

1507
00:51:57,330 --> 00:51:59,410
are all royals.

1508
00:52:00,170 --> 00:52:00,970
Not just you.

1509
00:52:01,250 --> 00:52:02,150
Not just you.

1510
00:52:02,250 --> 00:52:02,850
OK, maybe.

1511
00:52:03,050 --> 00:52:05,190
And they're all related to each other, too.

1512
00:52:05,290 --> 00:52:07,310
There's about 13 families of them.

1513
00:52:07,530 --> 00:52:08,930
Let's let's jump to this next story.

1514
00:52:09,010 --> 00:52:09,510
We've got this.

1515
00:52:09,710 --> 00:52:09,870
Yeah.

1516
00:52:09,870 --> 00:52:10,610
OK, go ahead.

1517
00:52:11,090 --> 00:52:12,630
Don't dive into it, Tim.

1518
00:52:13,170 --> 00:52:15,250
You might get you might get Charlie Kirk.

1519
00:52:15,390 --> 00:52:16,270
You don't want that.

1520
00:52:17,350 --> 00:52:19,270
You know, you know who defends the royal

1521
00:52:19,270 --> 00:52:20,410
family more than that?

1522
00:52:20,690 --> 00:52:21,330
Those in the UK.

1523
00:52:22,010 --> 00:52:22,390
Trump.

1524
00:52:23,030 --> 00:52:23,830
The Canadians.

1525
00:52:24,810 --> 00:52:25,470
Oh, my God.

1526
00:52:25,470 --> 00:52:27,190
Trump is always talking nice about him.

1527
00:52:27,250 --> 00:52:29,250
But I think that's a that's a wink

1528
00:52:29,250 --> 00:52:29,730
and a nudge.

1529
00:52:30,010 --> 00:52:30,410
Oh, yeah.

1530
00:52:30,630 --> 00:52:35,190
But all of the she's right.

1531
00:52:35,530 --> 00:52:35,870
They are.

1532
00:52:36,110 --> 00:52:38,930
Look, the the van Montbatten's there.

1533
00:52:39,030 --> 00:52:39,850
They're all German.

1534
00:52:40,010 --> 00:52:41,270
They're related to the Dutch.

1535
00:52:41,270 --> 00:52:43,330
They're related to the Danes, related to the

1536
00:52:43,330 --> 00:52:43,730
Swedes.

1537
00:52:44,030 --> 00:52:44,390
They are.

1538
00:52:44,570 --> 00:52:46,350
They just watch the crown.

1539
00:52:46,890 --> 00:52:47,770
Watch Victoria.

1540
00:52:48,390 --> 00:52:50,110
You get a real good sense of how

1541
00:52:50,110 --> 00:52:52,590
how that inbreeding has worked throughout the years

1542
00:52:52,590 --> 00:52:54,330
and where they get all the money.

1543
00:52:54,430 --> 00:52:55,610
East India Company.

1544
00:52:56,770 --> 00:53:00,490
The British Empire was robbing the entire world.

1545
00:53:00,670 --> 00:53:01,950
All that money went.

1546
00:53:02,170 --> 00:53:03,350
What were they living off of?

1547
00:53:03,430 --> 00:53:05,450
And now we have this kind of joke

1548
00:53:05,450 --> 00:53:07,510
where, oh, where the taxpayers are paying for

1549
00:53:07,510 --> 00:53:08,270
Buckingham Palace.

1550
00:53:08,270 --> 00:53:11,190
These people own so much actual land.

1551
00:53:11,310 --> 00:53:12,250
It's not funny.

1552
00:53:12,530 --> 00:53:14,530
And what no one ever talks about.

1553
00:53:14,930 --> 00:53:16,950
There's a really excellent book called The Merchants

1554
00:53:16,950 --> 00:53:17,630
of Grain.

1555
00:53:18,170 --> 00:53:20,010
The talk has been updated in the last

1556
00:53:20,010 --> 00:53:20,530
few years.

1557
00:53:22,850 --> 00:53:25,690
Five families control all the grain in the

1558
00:53:25,690 --> 00:53:27,370
world, in the entire world.

1559
00:53:28,030 --> 00:53:30,290
And if they want to cause famine.

1560
00:53:30,650 --> 00:53:32,550
OK, you don't get your wheat this year.

1561
00:53:32,670 --> 00:53:33,470
Is that Cargill?

1562
00:53:33,610 --> 00:53:34,690
Are they part of the family?

1563
00:53:35,670 --> 00:53:37,810
Cargill is another layer.

1564
00:53:39,010 --> 00:53:42,850
There's Cargill and, you know, can't think of

1565
00:53:42,850 --> 00:53:43,350
all the names.

1566
00:53:44,070 --> 00:53:47,750
We have some big privately owned corporations that

1567
00:53:47,750 --> 00:53:49,670
control our meat and control everything else.

1568
00:53:49,730 --> 00:53:51,710
But there are five families that are very

1569
00:53:51,710 --> 00:53:52,370
secretive.

1570
00:53:52,590 --> 00:53:54,130
But it's laid out in this book called

1571
00:53:54,130 --> 00:53:56,130
The Merchants of Grain, which I highly recommend.

1572
00:53:56,370 --> 00:53:58,550
Because you read it and you go, I've

1573
00:53:58,550 --> 00:53:59,430
never heard of these people.

1574
00:53:59,710 --> 00:54:02,250
And they're tied into the international banking as

1575
00:54:02,250 --> 00:54:02,530
well.

1576
00:54:02,530 --> 00:54:06,030
And that is not the grain part, although

1577
00:54:06,030 --> 00:54:08,590
he made or the company now.

1578
00:54:08,790 --> 00:54:13,730
It's Dreyfus, Julia Louis Dreyfus' grandfather.

1579
00:54:14,130 --> 00:54:16,870
He's one of the biggest shysters when it

1580
00:54:16,870 --> 00:54:20,970
comes to oil, you know, getting oil from

1581
00:54:20,970 --> 00:54:23,490
Libya, bringing it to Iran, back and forth.

1582
00:54:23,850 --> 00:54:25,030
I mean, you're right.

1583
00:54:25,110 --> 00:54:27,230
There are families you never ever hear about

1584
00:54:27,230 --> 00:54:29,730
who are involved in all of this trade.

1585
00:54:29,730 --> 00:54:33,050
And I'm pretty sure Trump sees through that.

1586
00:54:33,430 --> 00:54:37,110
And, you know, someone said on Twitter the

1587
00:54:37,110 --> 00:54:39,350
other day, oh, man, you guys have Trump

1588
00:54:39,350 --> 00:54:41,130
drain syndrome in reverse.

1589
00:54:41,470 --> 00:54:42,870
I said, what are you talking about?

1590
00:54:42,930 --> 00:54:44,230
So you never talk about this.

1591
00:54:44,350 --> 00:54:46,250
Well, you don't listen to every episode, I

1592
00:54:46,250 --> 00:54:47,250
guess, because we have.

1593
00:54:47,270 --> 00:54:48,990
And I show them bingit.io. Look, here

1594
00:54:48,990 --> 00:54:49,650
it is.

1595
00:54:50,230 --> 00:54:53,010
Well, you should criticize Trump more.

1596
00:54:53,330 --> 00:54:58,070
If it's valid, if it's valid, well, we

1597
00:54:58,070 --> 00:54:59,530
criticize Trump plenty.

1598
00:54:59,530 --> 00:55:01,490
If it's valid and if we just happen

1599
00:55:01,490 --> 00:55:04,950
to agree with what we see, then we're

1600
00:55:04,950 --> 00:55:08,050
Zionist shills, and especially me as the crazy

1601
00:55:08,050 --> 00:55:10,610
Christian nationalist Zionist at work.

1602
00:55:11,050 --> 00:55:13,890
Well, the one thing to remember is Trump

1603
00:55:13,890 --> 00:55:17,610
has dealt with people who are way richer

1604
00:55:17,610 --> 00:55:18,230
than him.

1605
00:55:18,730 --> 00:55:20,430
He's dealt with somebody because, you know, in

1606
00:55:20,430 --> 00:55:22,330
the business that he's always been in, I

1607
00:55:22,330 --> 00:55:23,890
mean, his family is not that rich.

1608
00:55:24,110 --> 00:55:24,750
They really aren't.

1609
00:55:24,790 --> 00:55:26,070
They're kind of like low-level rich.

1610
00:55:26,070 --> 00:55:26,870
Oh, yeah, low-level.

1611
00:55:27,370 --> 00:55:30,050
And, you know, at that level, there are

1612
00:55:30,050 --> 00:55:32,210
people who are so far head and shoulders

1613
00:55:32,210 --> 00:55:35,810
above you that he has a perspective that

1614
00:55:35,810 --> 00:55:38,270
most people don't have because he's dealt with

1615
00:55:38,270 --> 00:55:38,410
them.

1616
00:55:38,490 --> 00:55:39,530
He's made deals with them.

1617
00:55:39,730 --> 00:55:41,010
He's talked to them.

1618
00:55:42,690 --> 00:55:45,090
You know, there are people who you can't

1619
00:55:45,090 --> 00:55:47,810
even imagine how much they control and how

1620
00:55:47,810 --> 00:55:48,550
rich they are.

1621
00:55:48,930 --> 00:55:49,770
And they're just people.

1622
00:55:50,050 --> 00:55:50,770
I mean, that's just it.

1623
00:55:50,930 --> 00:55:52,770
My whole thing is, you know, everybody's a

1624
00:55:52,770 --> 00:55:53,110
person.

1625
00:55:53,570 --> 00:55:54,010
Everybody poops.

1626
00:55:54,350 --> 00:55:55,170
Everybody poops.

1627
00:55:56,170 --> 00:55:56,570
Exactly.

1628
00:55:57,530 --> 00:56:01,830
But, you know, in my past, I've known

1629
00:56:01,830 --> 00:56:02,870
some people who are rich.

1630
00:56:03,450 --> 00:56:04,750
And I'd go, oh, you're rich.

1631
00:56:04,810 --> 00:56:06,350
And they'd go, oh, no, not at all.

1632
00:56:06,390 --> 00:56:07,690
I'm like the poor rich.

1633
00:56:07,850 --> 00:56:10,350
I'm like the wrong side of the border

1634
00:56:10,350 --> 00:56:10,770
rich.

1635
00:56:11,190 --> 00:56:12,610
And I'd be like, but you've got like

1636
00:56:12,610 --> 00:56:13,210
$100 million.

1637
00:56:13,530 --> 00:56:14,770
They'd go, oh, you have no idea.

1638
00:56:14,930 --> 00:56:15,130
It's true.

1639
00:56:15,270 --> 00:56:18,190
I remember, and our Dutch listeners will remember

1640
00:56:18,190 --> 00:56:19,050
Nina Brink.

1641
00:56:19,050 --> 00:56:23,650
Nina Brink was the Dutch lady who bought

1642
00:56:23,650 --> 00:56:27,610
up a couple of different internet companies, internet

1643
00:56:27,610 --> 00:56:30,450
access companies, and was going to launch World

1644
00:56:30,450 --> 00:56:31,210
Online.

1645
00:56:31,770 --> 00:56:34,970
And World Online was going to be a

1646
00:56:34,970 --> 00:56:37,110
global internet services provider.

1647
00:56:37,490 --> 00:56:38,550
You know, this is from the days when

1648
00:56:38,550 --> 00:56:40,330
we still had dial-up modems and everything.

1649
00:56:40,810 --> 00:56:43,930
She bought Euronet and a couple other companies.

1650
00:56:44,230 --> 00:56:45,570
And she was going to float it on

1651
00:56:45,570 --> 00:56:46,350
the stock market.

1652
00:56:46,350 --> 00:56:49,910
She had already been very successful with business

1653
00:56:49,910 --> 00:56:53,010
IT systems, a company called A-Line.

1654
00:56:53,710 --> 00:56:57,210
And Ron Bloom and I, we went to

1655
00:56:57,210 --> 00:56:59,010
raise money from her, which is how I

1656
00:56:59,010 --> 00:57:00,090
came to know her.

1657
00:57:00,590 --> 00:57:02,790
And I immediately saw what kind of a

1658
00:57:02,790 --> 00:57:03,290
woman she was.

1659
00:57:03,350 --> 00:57:06,470
She's kind of this power woman, you know,

1660
00:57:06,470 --> 00:57:10,350
dressed in the typical kind of pastel color,

1661
00:57:10,570 --> 00:57:14,550
you know, the fuzzy dress, you know, that's

1662
00:57:14,550 --> 00:57:15,950
supposed to be very expensive.

1663
00:57:15,950 --> 00:57:16,890
She's got the helmet.

1664
00:57:17,190 --> 00:57:17,470
The Chanel jacket.

1665
00:57:17,690 --> 00:57:18,270
Yeah, yeah.

1666
00:57:18,330 --> 00:57:23,850
And she has hair like Queen Ursula von

1667
00:57:23,850 --> 00:57:24,250
der Leyen.

1668
00:57:25,090 --> 00:57:26,670
And right out of the bat, she said,

1669
00:57:26,670 --> 00:57:27,310
oh, this is great.

1670
00:57:27,390 --> 00:57:29,570
Yes, we'll invest a million dollars in you

1671
00:57:29,570 --> 00:57:31,590
in a subordinated loan.

1672
00:57:31,770 --> 00:57:32,610
Okay, goodbye.

1673
00:57:33,410 --> 00:57:34,690
You know, that's not investing.

1674
00:57:34,910 --> 00:57:36,870
You're lending us money, and then if we

1675
00:57:36,870 --> 00:57:38,990
do anything good with it, you get the

1676
00:57:38,990 --> 00:57:39,750
first money out.

1677
00:57:39,790 --> 00:57:41,830
And if we don't, then we're your slave

1678
00:57:41,830 --> 00:57:42,730
for the rest of our lives.

1679
00:57:43,250 --> 00:57:44,730
But I got to know her.

1680
00:57:44,730 --> 00:57:46,910
I tried to sell her a helicopter at

1681
00:57:46,910 --> 00:57:47,450
one point.

1682
00:57:47,530 --> 00:57:48,510
It wasn't very successful.

1683
00:57:49,970 --> 00:57:54,590
But this was a big flop, this float,

1684
00:57:54,730 --> 00:57:57,370
because it turns out right before the IPO,

1685
00:57:58,550 --> 00:58:01,230
it came out that she had pre-sold

1686
00:58:01,230 --> 00:58:05,430
all of her shares before it went public.

1687
00:58:05,810 --> 00:58:09,690
But I remember so clearly at a certain

1688
00:58:09,690 --> 00:58:11,710
point she says to me, oh, you know,

1689
00:58:12,090 --> 00:58:13,350
this is before the IPO.

1690
00:58:14,230 --> 00:58:15,590
The Rothschilds are interested.

1691
00:58:15,750 --> 00:58:16,530
The Rothschilds.

1692
00:58:16,570 --> 00:58:18,650
And she was like a slug.

1693
00:58:18,810 --> 00:58:19,990
The Rothschilds.

1694
00:58:19,990 --> 00:58:21,770
Oh, the Rothschilds are interested.

1695
00:58:22,030 --> 00:58:24,190
And she's a very wealthy woman.

1696
00:58:24,250 --> 00:58:25,750
The same, you know, hundreds of millions.

1697
00:58:26,690 --> 00:58:28,810
But when she heard the Rothschilds, oh, I

1698
00:58:28,810 --> 00:58:30,150
might even meet the Rothschilds.

1699
00:58:30,210 --> 00:58:32,850
I'm like, wow, you are a sycophant, lady.

1700
00:58:33,150 --> 00:58:34,290
You're sick.

1701
00:58:35,050 --> 00:58:35,410
So, yeah.

1702
00:58:35,710 --> 00:58:35,850
Yeah.

1703
00:58:36,070 --> 00:58:40,090
And so I see the game that Trump

1704
00:58:40,090 --> 00:58:40,610
is playing.

1705
00:58:40,610 --> 00:58:41,710
It's an oil game.

1706
00:58:42,190 --> 00:58:47,130
Now, the problem is this is going to

1707
00:58:47,130 --> 00:58:48,070
cost a lot of money.

1708
00:58:48,250 --> 00:58:50,670
He's already asking for a trillion and a

1709
00:58:50,670 --> 00:58:54,430
half dollar military budget next year.

1710
00:58:54,830 --> 00:58:59,010
The only way to fix the debt is

1711
00:58:59,010 --> 00:59:02,850
to get interest rates way down and to

1712
00:59:02,850 --> 00:59:07,090
switch the monetary system to stable coins so

1713
00:59:07,090 --> 00:59:09,810
that we still have the world reserve currency

1714
00:59:09,810 --> 00:59:11,470
because if we don't have the world reserve

1715
00:59:11,470 --> 00:59:14,390
currency through stable coin, which are backed by

1716
00:59:14,390 --> 00:59:16,290
treasuries, then we're toast.

1717
00:59:16,770 --> 00:59:17,950
So it is a big gamble.

1718
00:59:18,210 --> 00:59:21,290
I mean, it's Trump casino level gamble and

1719
00:59:21,290 --> 00:59:22,590
that didn't turn out so well.

1720
00:59:22,970 --> 00:59:25,270
So, you know, but at least he's doing

1721
00:59:25,270 --> 00:59:26,630
something different.

1722
00:59:27,510 --> 00:59:28,010
Right.

1723
00:59:28,190 --> 00:59:29,470
That's what I like.

1724
00:59:29,550 --> 00:59:31,130
And I don't like war, of course.

1725
00:59:31,230 --> 00:59:31,950
I don't like that.

1726
00:59:32,010 --> 00:59:34,470
But every single one of us listening or

1727
00:59:34,470 --> 00:59:37,290
speaking was born into a world at war.

1728
00:59:37,910 --> 00:59:39,230
Every single person.

1729
00:59:39,230 --> 00:59:40,690
That is the world.

1730
00:59:41,410 --> 00:59:44,750
Well, you know, it's not like we aren't

1731
00:59:44,750 --> 00:59:46,690
warring a warring species.

1732
00:59:46,930 --> 00:59:47,590
That's what we do.

1733
00:59:47,710 --> 00:59:49,810
We form tribes and then we war against

1734
00:59:49,810 --> 00:59:50,510
another tribe.

1735
00:59:50,850 --> 00:59:52,410
That's what we've done since the beginning.

1736
00:59:52,530 --> 00:59:55,510
I mean, that's why there's no Neanderthals here

1737
00:59:55,510 --> 00:59:55,910
anymore.

1738
00:59:56,570 --> 00:59:59,290
You know, you know, there were other species

1739
00:59:59,290 --> 01:00:00,370
and we wiped them out.

1740
01:00:00,870 --> 01:00:03,910
And maybe we just need to come to

1741
01:00:03,910 --> 01:00:06,730
terms with our own culture.

1742
01:00:06,730 --> 01:00:09,770
We are a warring, fighting people.

1743
01:00:11,130 --> 01:00:12,430
Yeah, that is what we are.

1744
01:00:12,590 --> 01:00:13,030
That is.

1745
01:00:13,230 --> 01:00:17,450
And we believe it's just when we do

1746
01:00:17,450 --> 01:00:17,950
it.

1747
01:00:19,510 --> 01:00:20,830
It's fun, I'm sure.

1748
01:00:21,310 --> 01:00:22,210
It's fun.

1749
01:00:22,310 --> 01:00:22,950
Let's be honest.

1750
01:00:23,110 --> 01:00:23,930
That's not fun.

1751
01:00:24,070 --> 01:00:26,630
I mean, let's do something fun because this

1752
01:00:26,630 --> 01:00:28,370
came across from New York Post.

1753
01:00:29,070 --> 01:00:31,270
I believe it's an AI voice, which is

1754
01:00:31,270 --> 01:00:33,610
disappointing, but the story is fantastic.

1755
01:00:34,710 --> 01:00:37,050
President Trump was stunned to learn that U

1756
01:00:37,050 --> 01:00:40,610
.S. intelligence indicates new Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba

1757
01:00:40,610 --> 01:00:43,170
Khamenei may be gay and that his father,

1758
01:00:43,550 --> 01:00:46,710
the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, feared his suitability

1759
01:00:46,710 --> 01:00:49,250
to rule the Islamic Republic for that reason.

1760
01:00:49,430 --> 01:00:50,730
The Post can reveal.

1761
01:00:51,410 --> 01:00:53,970
Trump couldn't contain a surprise and laughed aloud

1762
01:00:53,970 --> 01:00:56,290
when he was briefed on the intel, according

1763
01:00:56,290 --> 01:00:56,850
to sources.

1764
01:00:56,850 --> 01:00:59,090
Others in the room also found it, quote,

1765
01:00:59,210 --> 01:01:01,670
hilarious and joined the president's reaction.

1766
01:01:02,150 --> 01:01:04,610
While one senior intelligence official has not stopped

1767
01:01:04,610 --> 01:01:06,950
laughing about it for days, said one person

1768
01:01:06,950 --> 01:01:08,090
familiar with the briefing.

1769
01:01:08,690 --> 01:01:10,450
The shocking claim was described to the Post

1770
01:01:10,450 --> 01:01:13,150
by two intelligence community officials and a third

1771
01:01:13,150 --> 01:01:14,550
person close to the White House.

1772
01:01:15,030 --> 01:01:17,730
All three sources say the implausible sounding allegation

1773
01:01:17,730 --> 01:01:19,750
is viewed as credible by U.S. spy

1774
01:01:19,750 --> 01:01:20,330
agencies.

1775
01:01:21,130 --> 01:01:23,350
Two of the sources said the intelligence indicates

1776
01:01:23,350 --> 01:01:25,750
that Mojtaba has had a long term sexual

1777
01:01:25,750 --> 01:01:27,990
relationship with his childhood tutor.

1778
01:01:28,430 --> 01:01:30,710
The third source said the intelligence indicated the

1779
01:01:30,710 --> 01:01:32,830
affair was with a person who formerly worked

1780
01:01:32,830 --> 01:01:34,010
for the Khamenei family.

1781
01:01:34,650 --> 01:01:36,450
Mojtaba, who is believed to have been wounded

1782
01:01:36,450 --> 01:01:39,250
in the same February 20th airstrike that killed

1783
01:01:39,250 --> 01:01:41,370
his father and other members of his family,

1784
01:01:41,650 --> 01:01:44,590
has made aggressive sexual overtures to men caring

1785
01:01:44,590 --> 01:01:47,330
for him, possibly while under the influence of

1786
01:01:47,330 --> 01:01:48,170
heavy medication.

1787
01:01:48,170 --> 01:01:51,050
One of the Post sources said U.S.

1788
01:01:51,090 --> 01:01:53,310
spy agencies do not have photographic evidence of

1789
01:01:53,310 --> 01:01:55,530
the 56 year old's alleged sexual attraction to

1790
01:01:55,530 --> 01:01:55,790
men.

1791
01:01:55,930 --> 01:01:57,890
But the sources insisted the tip is solid,

1792
01:01:58,090 --> 01:01:59,950
with one saying it was derived from one

1793
01:01:59,950 --> 01:02:02,010
of the most protected sources that the government

1794
01:02:02,010 --> 01:02:02,570
has.

1795
01:02:02,890 --> 01:02:04,210
I don't know if you caught that, but

1796
01:02:04,210 --> 01:02:06,710
when someone says the tip is solid, I'm

1797
01:02:06,710 --> 01:02:08,030
like I'm sold on the story.

1798
01:02:08,110 --> 01:02:09,050
Thank you very much.

1799
01:02:09,350 --> 01:02:11,630
The Gayatola, the Gayatola Khamenei.

1800
01:02:11,630 --> 01:02:11,990
Perfect.

1801
01:02:12,230 --> 01:02:15,910
You know, you know, his father, I'm shocked

1802
01:02:15,910 --> 01:02:17,410
his father let him live.

1803
01:02:18,570 --> 01:02:19,070
Yeah.

1804
01:02:19,530 --> 01:02:19,790
Yeah.

1805
01:02:20,050 --> 01:02:20,190
Yeah.

1806
01:02:20,270 --> 01:02:23,230
All these all these people, you know, saying,

1807
01:02:23,390 --> 01:02:27,270
oh, you know, we're protesting against, you know,

1808
01:02:27,310 --> 01:02:28,930
for Iran, against the United States.

1809
01:02:28,930 --> 01:02:30,850
Do they understand that?

1810
01:02:32,770 --> 01:02:36,450
That homosexuality isn't is is a death sentence,

1811
01:02:36,670 --> 01:02:43,670
that, you know, they other opinions aren't accepted.

1812
01:02:44,310 --> 01:02:45,570
I mean, it's like all these people would

1813
01:02:45,570 --> 01:02:47,450
be dead if they went to Iran under

1814
01:02:47,450 --> 01:02:50,470
the last regime, under the IRGC.

1815
01:02:50,470 --> 01:02:52,830
I love the fact.

1816
01:02:52,930 --> 01:02:53,890
I bet he is gay.

1817
01:02:54,170 --> 01:02:54,450
Good.

1818
01:02:55,190 --> 01:02:56,750
He kind of I'm all for him.

1819
01:02:57,010 --> 01:02:57,610
My gate.

1820
01:02:57,750 --> 01:02:59,070
Now that I look at the guy, my

1821
01:02:59,070 --> 01:03:00,450
gaydar does kind of go off.

1822
01:03:01,490 --> 01:03:03,310
I never thought I never looked at him

1823
01:03:03,310 --> 01:03:04,030
that way.

1824
01:03:04,150 --> 01:03:06,110
OK, well, that's interesting.

1825
01:03:07,010 --> 01:03:08,010
Oh, you like him, huh?

1826
01:03:08,250 --> 01:03:10,910
No, no, I'm not.

1827
01:03:10,910 --> 01:03:12,270
Not not into that.

1828
01:03:12,730 --> 01:03:13,190
Not now.

1829
01:03:13,510 --> 01:03:17,070
So over and overnight there was some, you

1830
01:03:17,070 --> 01:03:18,650
know, at this point I'm thinking.

1831
01:03:20,070 --> 01:03:23,690
What is because clearly, you know.

1832
01:03:25,050 --> 01:03:28,670
Everything is destroyed, their radar, their air force,

1833
01:03:28,790 --> 01:03:30,730
they they can still shoot off some missiles,

1834
01:03:30,730 --> 01:03:32,850
I'm sure, but the drones, they still got

1835
01:03:32,850 --> 01:03:33,490
drones.

1836
01:03:36,310 --> 01:03:39,690
And the Straits of Hormuz, I'm thinking more

1837
01:03:39,690 --> 01:03:42,550
and more like maybe maybe we just keep

1838
01:03:42,550 --> 01:03:43,810
that shut for a little bit.

1839
01:03:43,890 --> 01:03:46,450
I mean, we're working on alternatives with our

1840
01:03:46,450 --> 01:03:49,190
GCC friends in the Abraham Accords.

1841
01:03:49,490 --> 01:03:51,150
It's only a tenth of what it needs

1842
01:03:51,150 --> 01:03:52,750
to be, but it is an alternative.

1843
01:03:53,010 --> 01:03:55,630
Iranian attacks on the oil facilities of neighboring

1844
01:03:55,630 --> 01:03:59,170
Gulf nations are creating new chaos for exports.

1845
01:03:59,170 --> 01:04:02,450
Well, Iranian attacks have targeted the United Arab

1846
01:04:02,450 --> 01:04:05,190
Emirates port of Fujairah for the second day

1847
01:04:05,190 --> 01:04:07,850
in a row, reportedly triggering a large fire

1848
01:04:07,850 --> 01:04:09,290
at an oil facility there.

1849
01:04:09,770 --> 01:04:11,870
Fujairah is one of the very few points

1850
01:04:11,870 --> 01:04:14,930
of export for Gulf oil producing nations that

1851
01:04:14,930 --> 01:04:16,650
bypasses the Strait of Hormuz.

1852
01:04:17,230 --> 01:04:20,150
It's determinants for an Emirati oil pipeline that

1853
01:04:20,150 --> 01:04:21,310
runs from Habshan.

1854
01:04:21,390 --> 01:04:23,170
That's a port that lies before the key

1855
01:04:23,170 --> 01:04:26,190
maritime choke point now effectively closed by the

1856
01:04:26,190 --> 01:04:27,370
threat of Iranian attacks.

1857
01:04:27,370 --> 01:04:30,910
That pipeline typically handles around 1.5 million

1858
01:04:30,910 --> 01:04:34,130
barrels per day, maxing out at 1.8

1859
01:04:34,130 --> 01:04:37,350
million of the UAE's 3.5 million daily

1860
01:04:37,350 --> 01:04:37,690
total.

1861
01:04:38,130 --> 01:04:40,650
Iran is well aware of the pipeline's value

1862
01:04:40,650 --> 01:04:43,170
in allowing tankers to avoid the Strait of

1863
01:04:43,170 --> 01:04:43,550
Hormuz.

1864
01:04:44,070 --> 01:04:47,370
Saudi Arabia has its own bypass pipeline going

1865
01:04:47,370 --> 01:04:50,110
from Abqaiq on the Persian Gulf to Yanbu

1866
01:04:50,110 --> 01:04:51,330
on the Red Sea.

1867
01:04:51,330 --> 01:04:54,850
A fleet of tankers has now gathered at

1868
01:04:54,850 --> 01:04:57,330
Yanbu waiting to load up on oil.

1869
01:04:57,750 --> 01:04:59,690
Shipments from Yanbu have gone from 2.1

1870
01:04:59,690 --> 01:05:02,370
million barrels per day to 3.1 million

1871
01:05:02,370 --> 01:05:03,270
over the past week.

1872
01:05:03,770 --> 01:05:05,910
The head of the International Energy Agency, meanwhile,

1873
01:05:05,910 --> 01:05:08,090
says the current war has created the largest

1874
01:05:08,090 --> 01:05:11,370
oil supply disruption in the history of global

1875
01:05:11,370 --> 01:05:11,890
markets.

1876
01:05:12,230 --> 01:05:14,150
So that's only 10 percent of what normally

1877
01:05:14,150 --> 01:05:16,190
comes through the Straits, but maybe they can

1878
01:05:16,190 --> 01:05:17,470
amp that up.

1879
01:05:17,470 --> 01:05:18,490
I'm not sure.

1880
01:05:18,730 --> 01:05:22,350
I think that Tina texted me the other

1881
01:05:22,350 --> 01:05:25,590
day, I just filled up my car with

1882
01:05:25,590 --> 01:05:26,090
premium.

1883
01:05:26,290 --> 01:05:28,010
It was 469 a gallon.

1884
01:05:28,390 --> 01:05:29,470
Thanks, Trump.

1885
01:05:30,710 --> 01:05:32,530
Well, yeah, yeah.

1886
01:05:32,630 --> 01:05:34,830
Yes, it sucks right now.

1887
01:05:34,850 --> 01:05:38,850
But I really think that this is this

1888
01:05:38,850 --> 01:05:42,070
is more shenanigans than anything.

1889
01:05:42,070 --> 01:05:43,830
This is going to get solved.

1890
01:05:43,990 --> 01:05:47,050
What we want is China to pay retail.

1891
01:05:47,510 --> 01:05:49,510
Stop with your wholesale prices, China.

1892
01:05:49,690 --> 01:05:50,210
Retail.

1893
01:05:50,990 --> 01:05:51,170
Right.

1894
01:05:52,110 --> 01:05:55,310
I didn't get a clip, but evidently the.

1895
01:05:57,510 --> 01:06:00,370
The Russian tanker was hit by.

1896
01:06:02,730 --> 01:06:04,330
Why can't I remember the name of the

1897
01:06:04,330 --> 01:06:04,810
country?

1898
01:06:04,810 --> 01:06:05,750
Ukraine.

1899
01:06:06,290 --> 01:06:07,590
Yeah, by Ukraine, by.

1900
01:06:07,870 --> 01:06:08,790
No, no, no, no, no.

1901
01:06:08,850 --> 01:06:10,590
I'm not going to let you say Ukraine

1902
01:06:10,590 --> 01:06:11,590
because that's OK.

1903
01:06:11,870 --> 01:06:14,210
OK, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine.

1904
01:06:14,430 --> 01:06:15,110
OK, Ukraine.

1905
01:06:15,770 --> 01:06:18,450
And the tanker is on fire.

1906
01:06:18,690 --> 01:06:23,850
It has liquid petroleum gas and crude and

1907
01:06:23,850 --> 01:06:25,610
it's floating off of Italy.

1908
01:06:25,830 --> 01:06:28,750
And everyone's been told to stay, you know,

1909
01:06:29,290 --> 01:06:32,410
500 kilometers away because it's a bomb.

1910
01:06:32,410 --> 01:06:33,690
They don't know when it's going to go

1911
01:06:33,690 --> 01:06:34,130
off.

1912
01:06:34,490 --> 01:06:34,690
Nice.

1913
01:06:35,290 --> 01:06:35,710
Yeah.

1914
01:06:35,970 --> 01:06:37,950
Well, it's like, well, this is this is

1915
01:06:37,950 --> 01:06:41,530
what's amazing when it comes to LNG, liquefied

1916
01:06:41,530 --> 01:06:42,430
natural gas.

1917
01:06:43,090 --> 01:06:44,530
That's our business.

1918
01:06:45,390 --> 01:06:45,550
Yeah.

1919
01:06:45,670 --> 01:06:48,490
So when when this happened the other day,

1920
01:06:48,490 --> 01:06:53,330
when Iran bombed a gas field or gas

1921
01:06:53,330 --> 01:06:56,870
installation that belongs to the Qataris, you know,

1922
01:06:56,890 --> 01:06:58,970
they share this one huge gas field in

1923
01:06:58,970 --> 01:06:59,610
the Gulf there.

1924
01:07:01,010 --> 01:07:04,110
It's like that only that's going to Europe.

1925
01:07:04,990 --> 01:07:06,610
And that means we're going to be selling

1926
01:07:06,610 --> 01:07:07,270
more of it.

1927
01:07:07,450 --> 01:07:09,270
I mean, to me, it's like, OK.

1928
01:07:09,630 --> 01:07:11,890
And then Trump was mad at the Israelis

1929
01:07:11,890 --> 01:07:12,650
about this.

1930
01:07:13,010 --> 01:07:15,810
South Pars is the largest natural gas field

1931
01:07:15,810 --> 01:07:19,010
in the world, split between Iran and Qatar.

1932
01:07:19,470 --> 01:07:22,590
Iran says it was targeted by airstrikes overnight,

1933
01:07:22,930 --> 01:07:24,510
reportedly by Israel.

1934
01:07:24,510 --> 01:07:29,170
Iran's president warning of consequences beyond control.

1935
01:07:29,770 --> 01:07:32,830
And Qatar accused Israel of a dangerous and

1936
01:07:32,830 --> 01:07:37,270
irresponsible step that threatens global energy security.

1937
01:07:38,030 --> 01:07:41,570
In response, Iran advised citizens near five oil

1938
01:07:41,570 --> 01:07:44,430
and gas facilities in U.S. allied Gulf

1939
01:07:44,430 --> 01:07:47,250
states, including Qatar, to evacuate.

1940
01:07:47,870 --> 01:07:51,150
And on Wednesday night, Qatar reported major damage

1941
01:07:51,150 --> 01:07:53,150
from a missile attack at a refinery.

1942
01:07:53,150 --> 01:07:57,470
Saudi Arabia also said it intercepted ballistic missiles.

1943
01:07:58,130 --> 01:08:00,310
The price of oil has spiked again amid

1944
01:08:00,310 --> 01:08:00,990
the tensions.

1945
01:08:01,690 --> 01:08:03,990
And as the Gulf remains closed off for

1946
01:08:03,990 --> 01:08:07,390
energy exports to nations, Iran sees as allied

1947
01:08:07,390 --> 01:08:09,050
with the U.S. and Israel.

1948
01:08:09,330 --> 01:08:11,350
We all agree, of course, that trade has

1949
01:08:11,350 --> 01:08:12,350
to open up again.

1950
01:08:13,230 --> 01:08:15,529
And what I know is that allies are

1951
01:08:15,529 --> 01:08:18,290
working together, discussing how to do that.

1952
01:08:18,290 --> 01:08:20,970
U.S. allies have so far refused White

1953
01:08:20,970 --> 01:08:23,550
House requests for help to open up the

1954
01:08:23,550 --> 01:08:24,529
Strait of Hormuz.

1955
01:08:25,069 --> 01:08:27,649
Overnight, the U.S. military says it struck

1956
01:08:27,649 --> 01:08:30,450
Iranian missile sites along the strait.

1957
01:08:30,750 --> 01:08:32,649
The United States military has a lot of

1958
01:08:32,649 --> 01:08:34,609
capabilities, as you have seen play out over

1959
01:08:34,609 --> 01:08:35,729
the last 18 days.

1960
01:08:36,250 --> 01:08:38,210
And they still do have tricks up their

1961
01:08:38,210 --> 01:08:38,490
sleeve.

1962
01:08:38,689 --> 01:08:39,649
Oh, tricks up their sleeve.

1963
01:08:39,710 --> 01:08:41,750
So here's what the president posted.

1964
01:08:41,750 --> 01:08:43,350
He truthed it.

1965
01:08:43,670 --> 01:08:45,990
He says, Israel, out of anger for what

1966
01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:47,670
has taken place in the Middle East, has

1967
01:08:47,670 --> 01:08:50,870
violently lashed out at a major facility known

1968
01:08:50,870 --> 01:08:53,010
as South Pars gas field in Iran.

1969
01:08:53,130 --> 01:08:55,729
A relatively small section of the hole has

1970
01:08:55,729 --> 01:08:56,069
been hit.

1971
01:08:56,149 --> 01:08:58,430
The United States knew nothing about this particular

1972
01:08:58,430 --> 01:09:00,229
attack, and the country of Qatar was in

1973
01:09:00,229 --> 01:09:02,330
no way, shape or form involved with it,

1974
01:09:02,370 --> 01:09:03,630
nor did it have any idea it was

1975
01:09:03,630 --> 01:09:04,149
going to happen.

1976
01:09:04,290 --> 01:09:07,410
Unfortunately, Iran did not know this or any

1977
01:09:07,410 --> 01:09:09,510
of the pertinent facts pertaining to the South

1978
01:09:09,510 --> 01:09:10,170
Pars attack.

1979
01:09:10,170 --> 01:09:13,430
And unjustifiably and unfairly attacked a portion of

1980
01:09:13,430 --> 01:09:15,229
Qatar's LNG gas facility.

1981
01:09:15,729 --> 01:09:18,330
And then uppercase, no more attacks will be

1982
01:09:18,330 --> 01:09:19,250
made by Israel.

1983
01:09:19,830 --> 01:09:21,450
Because, you know, he's got that Zionist gun

1984
01:09:21,450 --> 01:09:21,950
to his head.

1985
01:09:22,069 --> 01:09:24,790
So that's why he's doing it in uppercase.

1986
01:09:25,689 --> 01:09:28,290
Pertaining to this extremely important and valuable South

1987
01:09:28,290 --> 01:09:31,649
Pars field, unless Iran unwisely decides to attack

1988
01:09:31,649 --> 01:09:33,950
a very innocent, in this case, Qatar, in

1989
01:09:33,950 --> 01:09:36,069
which instance the United States of America, with

1990
01:09:36,069 --> 01:09:38,370
or without the help or consent of Israel,

1991
01:09:38,370 --> 01:09:42,149
because Israel needs that gas, will massively blow

1992
01:09:42,149 --> 01:09:42,470
up.

1993
01:09:42,569 --> 01:09:44,250
That's bigger than just big.

1994
01:09:44,569 --> 01:09:47,630
Will massively blow up the entirety of the

1995
01:09:47,630 --> 01:09:49,430
South Pars gas field at an amount of

1996
01:09:49,430 --> 01:09:51,470
strength and power that Iran has never seen

1997
01:09:51,470 --> 01:09:52,330
or witnessed before.

1998
01:09:52,729 --> 01:09:54,610
I do not want to authorize this level

1999
01:09:54,610 --> 01:09:56,550
of violence and destruction because of the long

2000
01:09:56,550 --> 01:09:58,590
-term implications that it will have on the

2001
01:09:58,590 --> 01:09:59,290
future of Iran.

2002
01:09:59,450 --> 01:10:01,910
But if Qatar's LNG is attacked again, I

2003
01:10:01,910 --> 01:10:03,150
will not hesitate to do so.

2004
01:10:03,410 --> 01:10:04,990
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

2005
01:10:05,810 --> 01:10:08,810
So there is the president afraid of Israel,

2006
01:10:08,810 --> 01:10:09,330
I guess.

2007
01:10:09,490 --> 01:10:10,150
He's pissed.

2008
01:10:10,550 --> 01:10:12,930
And I'm going to guarantee you they don't

2009
01:10:12,930 --> 01:10:13,650
do that again.

2010
01:10:14,270 --> 01:10:16,210
I love that line.

2011
01:10:16,350 --> 01:10:19,230
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

2012
01:10:19,610 --> 01:10:23,550
I hope this letter finds you well.

2013
01:10:26,570 --> 01:10:27,730
Yeah, that's...

2014
01:10:28,630 --> 01:10:30,110
Actually, that's pretty frightening.

2015
01:10:31,270 --> 01:10:33,410
The thought of what we could do, you

2016
01:10:33,410 --> 01:10:33,610
know?

2017
01:10:35,030 --> 01:10:38,230
I'm going to take my ball and bat,

2018
01:10:38,270 --> 01:10:39,210
and I'm going home.

2019
01:10:40,450 --> 01:10:41,730
Well, we're not going to go home.

2020
01:10:41,990 --> 01:10:42,890
No, no.

2021
01:10:43,310 --> 01:10:45,690
This is going to be resolved.

2022
01:10:46,750 --> 01:10:47,130
It is.

2023
01:10:47,230 --> 01:10:48,370
And everything will end.

2024
01:10:48,970 --> 01:10:52,350
The question is, will Iran figure it out?

2025
01:10:52,850 --> 01:10:55,690
And for sure, we have so-called boots

2026
01:10:55,690 --> 01:10:58,870
on the ground, and we've got agents all

2027
01:10:58,870 --> 01:10:59,690
over the place.

2028
01:10:59,690 --> 01:11:04,390
The IRCG, they're kind of a distributed organization,

2029
01:11:04,870 --> 01:11:08,190
so they're targeting all these regional IRGC offices.

2030
01:11:08,350 --> 01:11:09,410
There's a lot going on.

2031
01:11:09,450 --> 01:11:10,610
I'm just hearing about this.

2032
01:11:10,650 --> 01:11:12,070
I have no proof of it other than

2033
01:11:12,070 --> 01:11:15,070
what military people are telling me, which could

2034
01:11:15,070 --> 01:11:15,670
be propaganda.

2035
01:11:15,950 --> 01:11:16,410
I don't know.

2036
01:11:17,230 --> 01:11:18,630
But it sounds true.

2037
01:11:18,670 --> 01:11:20,950
We don't have troop carriers going out there

2038
01:11:20,950 --> 01:11:22,570
yet, and I don't think that will happen.

2039
01:11:23,490 --> 01:11:24,310
I don't think so.

2040
01:11:24,330 --> 01:11:27,750
And I think it will return back to

2041
01:11:27,750 --> 01:11:30,110
some normalcy probably within the next few weeks,

2042
01:11:30,370 --> 01:11:32,490
and then we'll see.

2043
01:11:34,610 --> 01:11:39,410
But even apparently former presidents are a little

2044
01:11:39,410 --> 01:11:41,710
envious that Trump is the one who did

2045
01:11:41,710 --> 01:11:42,070
this.

2046
01:11:42,550 --> 01:11:44,410
Other presidents should have done.

2047
01:11:44,510 --> 01:11:46,430
I spoke to one of the former presidents,

2048
01:11:46,630 --> 01:11:47,570
who I actually like.

2049
01:11:48,430 --> 01:11:49,490
I actually speak to some.

2050
01:11:49,610 --> 01:11:51,370
I do like some people.

2051
01:11:51,610 --> 01:11:52,210
It would be shocking.

2052
01:11:53,130 --> 01:11:54,470
And he said, I wish I did what

2053
01:11:54,470 --> 01:11:54,970
you did.

2054
01:11:55,830 --> 01:11:56,630
Could have done it.

2055
01:11:56,630 --> 01:12:00,130
Other presidents, somebody should have done it.

2056
01:12:00,170 --> 01:12:01,730
47 years this went on.

2057
01:12:02,470 --> 01:12:04,370
They call Iran the bully of the Middle

2058
01:12:04,370 --> 01:12:04,630
East.

2059
01:12:05,130 --> 01:12:06,650
And you could have never had the Abraham

2060
01:12:06,650 --> 01:12:07,190
Accords.

2061
01:12:07,490 --> 01:12:08,870
You could never have had peace in the

2062
01:12:08,870 --> 01:12:09,250
Middle East.

2063
01:12:09,330 --> 01:12:10,350
Now you're going to have peace.

2064
01:12:10,630 --> 01:12:11,890
You could never do it with the dark

2065
01:12:11,890 --> 01:12:14,670
cloud of a nuclear Iran.

2066
01:12:15,510 --> 01:12:17,730
But Iran is a shell of itself.

2067
01:12:17,850 --> 01:12:18,910
It's no longer a bully.

2068
01:12:19,070 --> 01:12:20,130
It's the one that gets bullied.

2069
01:12:20,230 --> 01:12:21,450
It's the bully that got beat up.

2070
01:12:21,510 --> 01:12:23,810
We beat the crap out of them, and

2071
01:12:23,810 --> 01:12:25,690
they deserve that.

2072
01:12:25,690 --> 01:12:26,990
I just want to ask you about something

2073
01:12:26,990 --> 01:12:28,750
very interesting that you said twice today.

2074
01:12:28,890 --> 01:12:31,730
You talked to another former president of the

2075
01:12:31,730 --> 01:12:32,290
Iran strikes.

2076
01:12:32,650 --> 01:12:33,970
Was it George W.

2077
01:12:34,230 --> 01:12:34,330
Bush?

2078
01:12:34,450 --> 01:12:34,750
No.

2079
01:12:35,210 --> 01:12:36,230
Was it Bill Clinton?

2080
01:12:36,710 --> 01:12:37,370
I don't want to say.

2081
01:12:38,970 --> 01:12:40,490
I don't want to say.

2082
01:12:40,870 --> 01:12:45,390
Because a member of a party, a member

2083
01:12:45,390 --> 01:12:50,230
of a party, they have Trump derangement syndrome.

2084
01:12:50,530 --> 01:12:53,050
But it's somebody that happens to like me.

2085
01:12:53,050 --> 01:12:55,490
And I like that person who's a smart

2086
01:12:55,490 --> 01:12:55,990
person.

2087
01:12:56,530 --> 01:12:59,670
But that person said, I wish I did

2088
01:12:59,670 --> 01:12:59,990
it.

2089
01:13:01,130 --> 01:13:01,270
Okay?

2090
01:13:01,370 --> 01:13:02,630
But I don't want to get into who.

2091
01:13:02,910 --> 01:13:04,250
I don't want to get him into trouble.

2092
01:13:04,370 --> 01:13:06,130
Maybe, hey, you know what?

2093
01:13:06,930 --> 01:13:08,270
I think you probably know.

2094
01:13:08,750 --> 01:13:09,790
You know, it's interesting.

2095
01:13:10,510 --> 01:13:11,610
And maybe he'd be proud.

2096
01:13:11,690 --> 01:13:13,170
And I could even ask him, would you

2097
01:13:13,170 --> 01:13:15,510
like me to reveal your name to Peter

2098
01:13:15,510 --> 01:13:16,310
at Fox?

2099
01:13:17,150 --> 01:13:18,710
Well, at least you have high ratings.

2100
01:13:21,050 --> 01:13:22,230
Hillary wouldn't let him.

2101
01:13:22,230 --> 01:13:22,690
Come on.

2102
01:13:22,750 --> 01:13:23,190
Exactly.

2103
01:13:23,370 --> 01:13:23,950
Hey, Donald.

2104
01:13:24,450 --> 01:13:25,510
I really like that, man.

2105
01:13:25,570 --> 01:13:26,390
I wish I had done that.

2106
01:13:26,690 --> 01:13:27,330
Would have been good.

2107
01:13:27,550 --> 01:13:28,490
Could have been real good.

2108
01:13:29,570 --> 01:13:30,010
Yeah.

2109
01:13:30,210 --> 01:13:31,310
Hillary wouldn't let him.

2110
01:13:31,690 --> 01:13:31,930
Exactly.

2111
01:13:32,750 --> 01:13:33,190
Exactly.

2112
01:13:33,730 --> 01:13:34,030
Yeah.

2113
01:13:34,390 --> 01:13:34,730
Yeah.

2114
01:13:34,930 --> 01:13:36,010
I thought that was funny.

2115
01:13:36,110 --> 01:13:36,970
The guessing game.

2116
01:13:37,270 --> 01:13:37,590
You know?

2117
01:13:38,650 --> 01:13:39,230
That's Trump.

2118
01:13:39,830 --> 01:13:40,270
That's Trump.

2119
01:13:40,750 --> 01:13:42,230
What else you got on your list here,

2120
01:13:42,290 --> 01:13:42,450
Mimi?

2121
01:13:42,530 --> 01:13:44,070
You seem to have other things you brought

2122
01:13:44,070 --> 01:13:44,870
along to the party.

2123
01:13:45,510 --> 01:13:47,210
So did you watch the Oscars?

2124
01:13:47,890 --> 01:13:50,230
You know, I'm glad you asked.

2125
01:13:50,230 --> 01:13:53,190
First of all, ratings down almost 10%

2126
01:13:53,190 --> 01:13:54,290
over last year.

2127
01:13:55,070 --> 01:13:58,150
Only 3.5 million in the demo watched.

2128
01:13:58,370 --> 01:14:00,610
So that is an objective failure.

2129
01:14:01,990 --> 01:14:05,190
I could not even get through the monologue.

2130
01:14:05,490 --> 01:14:08,410
The first problem for me was, you know,

2131
01:14:08,490 --> 01:14:10,470
he does the opening sequence.

2132
01:14:11,190 --> 01:14:12,650
And I have not seen any of the

2133
01:14:12,650 --> 01:14:12,970
movies.

2134
01:14:13,150 --> 01:14:14,990
So I knew that they, you know, that

2135
01:14:14,990 --> 01:14:16,430
this all related to the movies.

2136
01:14:16,430 --> 01:14:18,170
But I had not seen any of them.

2137
01:14:19,190 --> 01:14:21,470
Because who goes to the movie theaters anymore?

2138
01:14:22,330 --> 01:14:25,530
And the mic sounded so bad.

2139
01:14:26,130 --> 01:14:27,830
I couldn't get it.

2140
01:14:27,850 --> 01:14:28,970
I was like, oh, man.

2141
01:14:29,150 --> 01:14:30,250
It could not get.

2142
01:14:30,550 --> 01:14:32,250
It bothered me too much.

2143
01:14:32,510 --> 01:14:38,050
And I thought the decor was orange, like

2144
01:14:38,050 --> 01:14:40,190
burnt orange kind of color.

2145
01:14:40,910 --> 01:14:41,630
So no, I did.

2146
01:14:41,990 --> 01:14:43,710
On YouTube, I later went back and I

2147
01:14:43,710 --> 01:14:45,730
looked at my favorite segment, the dead segment.

2148
01:14:45,730 --> 01:14:49,090
And there's Barbara singing The Way We Were.

2149
01:14:49,270 --> 01:14:51,110
And she was – it was crap.

2150
01:14:53,510 --> 01:14:57,650
She doesn't look – She looks like who

2151
01:14:57,650 --> 01:14:58,770
was our – The Crypt Keeper.

2152
01:14:58,910 --> 01:14:59,510
No, no, no.

2153
01:14:59,510 --> 01:15:02,010
Who was our Health and Human Services Secretary,

2154
01:15:02,310 --> 01:15:04,050
the Admiral, the dude in the dress?

2155
01:15:04,150 --> 01:15:04,670
Who was that?

2156
01:15:05,930 --> 01:15:06,570
Who was that?

2157
01:15:06,890 --> 01:15:08,630
I don't remember, but yes.

2158
01:15:08,890 --> 01:15:09,310
Come on.

2159
01:15:09,550 --> 01:15:10,090
Who was that?

2160
01:15:10,450 --> 01:15:11,730
That's what she looked like.

2161
01:15:11,730 --> 01:15:15,730
Right away, Tina's like, that's the Admiral.

2162
01:15:15,950 --> 01:15:16,570
I said, the Admiral?

2163
01:15:16,970 --> 01:15:19,530
Yeah, yeah, yeah, from Health and Human Services.

2164
01:15:19,830 --> 01:15:22,070
I got to look up his name now.

2165
01:15:22,430 --> 01:15:22,850
Levine.

2166
01:15:22,990 --> 01:15:23,750
That's right, Levine.

2167
01:15:24,430 --> 01:15:24,930
Levine.

2168
01:15:25,810 --> 01:15:29,530
So for several years, she had a summer

2169
01:15:29,530 --> 01:15:31,370
place that she would come to up here,

2170
01:15:31,430 --> 01:15:33,290
and I would see her at the local

2171
01:15:33,290 --> 01:15:36,250
little independent grocery store.

2172
01:15:36,470 --> 01:15:37,690
Barbara or Levine?

2173
01:15:38,330 --> 01:15:38,730
Barbara.

2174
01:15:39,190 --> 01:15:40,150
Babs, yes.

2175
01:15:41,750 --> 01:15:44,830
And so her husband is – what's her

2176
01:15:44,830 --> 01:15:45,150
husband?

2177
01:15:45,330 --> 01:15:47,750
Her husband is – what's Mr. Babs?

2178
01:15:48,230 --> 01:15:50,530
Oh, Brosnan, Pierce Brosnan.

2179
01:15:51,190 --> 01:15:54,510
So I run into him at Sunny Farms.

2180
01:15:54,530 --> 01:15:55,410
I love Sunny Farms.

2181
01:15:55,810 --> 01:15:57,090
And I was looking at him, and he

2182
01:15:57,090 --> 01:15:58,250
had one of those – Is that a

2183
01:15:58,250 --> 01:16:00,670
spa for celebrities, Sunny Farms?

2184
01:16:00,670 --> 01:16:01,610
Is that where you go to detox?

2185
01:16:01,610 --> 01:16:03,670
Sunny Farms is the local nut house that

2186
01:16:03,670 --> 01:16:06,650
has great vegetables and has a butcher counter.

2187
01:16:07,130 --> 01:16:09,250
It's just a little independent grocery store.

2188
01:16:09,250 --> 01:16:09,830
Got you.

2189
01:16:10,350 --> 01:16:10,750
Trendy.

2190
01:16:11,290 --> 01:16:11,690
Trendy.

2191
01:16:12,310 --> 01:16:15,070
So I go there, and Brosnan's there, and

2192
01:16:15,070 --> 01:16:17,330
I don't recognize him really, but I noticed

2193
01:16:17,330 --> 01:16:19,270
that he had the most beautiful haircut I've

2194
01:16:19,270 --> 01:16:20,210
seen for a long time.

2195
01:16:20,430 --> 01:16:20,770
Brolin.

2196
01:16:20,830 --> 01:16:22,030
I'm sorry, Josh Brolin.

2197
01:16:22,210 --> 01:16:22,790
Josh Brolin.

2198
01:16:23,170 --> 01:16:23,370
Thank you.

2199
01:16:23,410 --> 01:16:25,170
So he has – That's what he said.

2200
01:16:25,450 --> 01:16:27,530
It's one of those haircuts that looks like

2201
01:16:27,530 --> 01:16:30,810
every hair was cut individually, measured and cut

2202
01:16:30,810 --> 01:16:31,330
individually.

2203
01:16:31,570 --> 01:16:31,970
It was gorgeous.

2204
01:16:32,110 --> 01:16:33,950
And I went, you've got a great haircut.

2205
01:16:34,090 --> 01:16:34,950
What, you said that?

2206
01:16:35,410 --> 01:16:36,230
Yeah, I said that to him.

2207
01:16:36,250 --> 01:16:36,510
Why not?

2208
01:16:36,810 --> 01:16:38,270
I'm in the potato aisle.

2209
01:16:38,270 --> 01:16:39,010
Brolin.

2210
01:16:39,010 --> 01:16:41,530
And he looks at me and he goes,

2211
01:16:41,650 --> 01:16:43,070
do you know who I am?

2212
01:16:45,250 --> 01:16:47,670
And I went, well, do you know who

2213
01:16:47,670 --> 01:16:48,170
I am?

2214
01:16:48,330 --> 01:16:50,750
Oh, now that's – And I walk away.

2215
01:16:52,010 --> 01:16:53,690
You showed him, Mimi.

2216
01:16:54,530 --> 01:16:56,950
I'm Marilyn Diane, just so you know.

2217
01:16:57,110 --> 01:16:57,990
I'm Marilyn Diane.

2218
01:16:58,170 --> 01:17:00,670
I own this place up here in Sequim,

2219
01:17:00,810 --> 01:17:02,290
whatever it's called, Port Angeles.

2220
01:17:02,290 --> 01:17:05,830
So Barbara would always – Barbara, whatever you

2221
01:17:05,830 --> 01:17:08,390
say your name, Streisand, would be in line

2222
01:17:08,390 --> 01:17:13,850
shopping with us peasants with sunglasses on and

2223
01:17:13,850 --> 01:17:15,270
really expensive shoes.

2224
01:17:15,410 --> 01:17:18,410
You have a hatred of famous people.

2225
01:17:18,970 --> 01:17:21,790
Well, and she's looking around like, who's recognizing

2226
01:17:21,790 --> 01:17:22,090
me?

2227
01:17:22,130 --> 01:17:24,050
And it's like, we don't give a shit.

2228
01:17:24,310 --> 01:17:25,330
You're on Sunny Farms.

2229
01:17:25,370 --> 01:17:25,890
We don't care.

2230
01:17:26,010 --> 01:17:26,490
You're a shop.

2231
01:17:27,150 --> 01:17:28,810
And she'd be up here all the time.

2232
01:17:28,810 --> 01:17:31,790
I ran into her maybe five or six

2233
01:17:31,790 --> 01:17:32,150
times.

2234
01:17:32,710 --> 01:17:34,090
She didn't look like that.

2235
01:17:34,610 --> 01:17:36,130
I mean, she's had some work, and it

2236
01:17:36,130 --> 01:17:36,850
doesn't look good.

2237
01:17:38,050 --> 01:17:40,130
I absolutely loved – I have a Fonda

2238
01:17:40,130 --> 01:17:42,190
about Redford clip.

2239
01:17:43,290 --> 01:17:44,990
Can I – before you go in, I

2240
01:17:44,990 --> 01:17:46,210
just – oh, no.

2241
01:17:46,250 --> 01:17:47,330
We'll play that, and then I have to

2242
01:17:47,330 --> 01:17:49,430
say something about your hatred for famous people.

2243
01:17:50,710 --> 01:17:52,030
The Fonda, Fonda.

2244
01:17:52,230 --> 01:17:52,750
Oh, Fonda.

2245
01:17:52,910 --> 01:17:53,390
Here we go.

2246
01:17:53,510 --> 01:17:55,050
I mean, we lost so many greats this

2247
01:17:55,050 --> 01:17:55,270
year.

2248
01:17:55,270 --> 01:17:57,010
I want to know how come Streisand was

2249
01:17:57,010 --> 01:17:58,490
up there doing that for Redford.

2250
01:17:58,810 --> 01:18:00,290
She only made one movie with him.

2251
01:18:00,350 --> 01:18:01,110
I made four.

2252
01:18:01,190 --> 01:18:01,990
You made four.

2253
01:18:02,190 --> 01:18:02,930
I have more to say.

2254
01:18:03,130 --> 01:18:03,630
Say it now.

2255
01:18:03,850 --> 01:18:04,850
I mean, what do you remember most about

2256
01:18:04,850 --> 01:18:05,810
working with Robert Redford?

2257
01:18:06,010 --> 01:18:07,290
I was always in love with him.

2258
01:18:08,330 --> 01:18:08,610
Fonda.

2259
01:18:08,790 --> 01:18:10,590
How old is Fonda now?

2260
01:18:10,850 --> 01:18:11,670
How old is she?

2261
01:18:11,850 --> 01:18:12,850
About the same age.

2262
01:18:12,970 --> 01:18:13,770
You know, in her 80s.

2263
01:18:13,890 --> 01:18:14,090
88.

2264
01:18:14,310 --> 01:18:14,810
She's 88.

2265
01:18:14,870 --> 01:18:16,090
Yeah, and she looks like she had a

2266
01:18:16,090 --> 01:18:16,850
few to drink.

2267
01:18:17,370 --> 01:18:19,190
So did you notice who they left out

2268
01:18:19,190 --> 01:18:22,670
of the – of the – of the

2269
01:18:22,670 --> 01:18:25,050
– No.

2270
01:18:25,630 --> 01:18:26,510
Who did they leave out?

2271
01:18:27,170 --> 01:18:30,130
They left out Brigitte Bardot, Robert Carradine.

2272
01:18:31,010 --> 01:18:31,410
Really?

2273
01:18:32,990 --> 01:18:33,090
Yeah.

2274
01:18:33,090 --> 01:18:34,130
Richard Chamberlain.

2275
01:18:35,950 --> 01:18:36,350
Wow.

2276
01:18:36,490 --> 01:18:39,330
And they left out David Kiley, who invented

2277
01:18:39,330 --> 01:18:40,150
IMAX.

2278
01:18:41,270 --> 01:18:41,710
Huh.

2279
01:18:42,890 --> 01:18:45,150
It was – I couldn't watch it.

2280
01:18:45,210 --> 01:18:46,130
I wouldn't watch it.

2281
01:18:47,530 --> 01:18:49,310
John described – he was – since he

2282
01:18:49,310 --> 01:18:50,630
was in the hospital, he had nothing else

2283
01:18:50,630 --> 01:18:50,850
to do.

2284
01:18:50,850 --> 01:18:53,870
He described early on – Oh, he watched

2285
01:18:53,870 --> 01:18:54,050
it?

2286
01:18:54,690 --> 01:18:54,930
Yeah.

2287
01:18:55,230 --> 01:18:56,470
Well, twice, I think.

2288
01:18:59,170 --> 01:19:00,870
Early on, there were three people who were

2289
01:19:00,870 --> 01:19:02,490
up on stage, and the first two got

2290
01:19:02,490 --> 01:19:06,870
to speak, and the third one – the

2291
01:19:06,870 --> 01:19:08,750
music cued up, and she was like, oh,

2292
01:19:08,790 --> 01:19:09,130
okay.

2293
01:19:09,570 --> 01:19:11,890
And then somebody said, no, no, you're with

2294
01:19:11,890 --> 01:19:12,270
Netflix.

2295
01:19:12,490 --> 01:19:13,170
Thank Netflix.

2296
01:19:13,930 --> 01:19:15,890
And they stopped – they didn't lower the

2297
01:19:15,890 --> 01:19:16,110
music.

2298
01:19:16,210 --> 01:19:18,050
They just stopped it to allow her to

2299
01:19:18,050 --> 01:19:19,990
give her Netflix plug.

2300
01:19:19,990 --> 01:19:25,470
So your stance towards famous people, the way

2301
01:19:25,470 --> 01:19:27,470
I just heard you talk about her and

2302
01:19:27,470 --> 01:19:29,510
say that she was looking around to see

2303
01:19:29,510 --> 01:19:32,330
if anyone recognized her, you could be a

2304
01:19:32,330 --> 01:19:33,050
Dutch person.

2305
01:19:35,290 --> 01:19:37,350
Dutch – this is how Dutch people are

2306
01:19:37,350 --> 01:19:38,390
around celebrities.

2307
01:19:39,490 --> 01:19:42,270
Overnight, I was famous in the Netherlands at

2308
01:19:42,270 --> 01:19:45,070
19 years of age because I was doing

2309
01:19:45,070 --> 01:19:48,210
a live music show on one of the

2310
01:19:48,210 --> 01:19:50,670
two television stations, and there was nothing else

2311
01:19:50,670 --> 01:19:51,130
to watch.

2312
01:19:51,370 --> 01:19:52,290
That was it.

2313
01:19:53,670 --> 01:19:57,450
And I would be in a store or

2314
01:19:57,450 --> 01:19:59,850
somewhere, and people would come up to me

2315
01:19:59,850 --> 01:20:02,970
and said, I don't know who you are

2316
01:20:02,970 --> 01:20:04,550
because I don't watch television.

2317
01:20:06,370 --> 01:20:09,190
And that reminds me of you, Mimi, this

2318
01:20:09,190 --> 01:20:11,750
hatred of people who are famous.

2319
01:20:11,870 --> 01:20:12,910
This is very interesting.

2320
01:20:13,030 --> 01:20:14,370
And you've mentioned this to me.

2321
01:20:14,370 --> 01:20:16,590
You said, I don't get celebrity.

2322
01:20:16,770 --> 01:20:18,050
I don't like famous people.

2323
01:20:18,170 --> 01:20:19,690
What is your problem, Heidi?

2324
01:20:19,990 --> 01:20:20,790
Well, wait a minute.

2325
01:20:20,870 --> 01:20:21,790
Let's go back.

2326
01:20:22,130 --> 01:20:27,950
My father's mother, my grandmother, my actually native

2327
01:20:27,950 --> 01:20:32,010
grandmother, was on stage.

2328
01:20:32,530 --> 01:20:35,090
She was actually a very famous stage actress.

2329
01:20:36,290 --> 01:20:38,630
And she's the one who introduced W.C.

2330
01:20:38,730 --> 01:20:42,030
Fields to her producers and got him in

2331
01:20:42,030 --> 01:20:44,550
a play called Poppy, which later became Sally

2332
01:20:44,550 --> 01:20:46,790
of the Sawdust, his first motion picture.

2333
01:20:47,990 --> 01:20:49,770
Her name was Emma Janvier.

2334
01:20:49,990 --> 01:20:54,010
And Emma Janvier died in 1921, 22, right

2335
01:20:54,010 --> 01:20:57,330
around there, during the production of Poppy.

2336
01:20:58,570 --> 01:21:01,290
And so my dad knew everybody as a

2337
01:21:01,290 --> 01:21:03,110
kid, everybody in the whole business.

2338
01:21:03,310 --> 01:21:05,870
I mean, people that no one will remember.

2339
01:21:05,870 --> 01:21:09,050
And as a little kid, I'd ask him,

2340
01:21:09,330 --> 01:21:11,270
because W.C. Fields and my dad stayed

2341
01:21:11,270 --> 01:21:13,590
close all through my dad's life.

2342
01:21:13,650 --> 01:21:16,170
Tell people who W.C. Fields was, because

2343
01:21:16,170 --> 01:21:17,510
I don't think everybody knows him.

2344
01:21:18,590 --> 01:21:20,450
20-year-olds don't even know who Michael

2345
01:21:20,450 --> 01:21:21,250
Jackson is.

2346
01:21:21,490 --> 01:21:22,470
So you've got to explain.

2347
01:21:22,590 --> 01:21:22,830
Okay.

2348
01:21:23,030 --> 01:21:26,810
W.C. Fields was a vaudevillian juggler, one

2349
01:21:26,810 --> 01:21:28,230
of the best jugglers in the world.

2350
01:21:28,510 --> 01:21:32,090
He juggled whole cigar boxes, and many of

2351
01:21:32,090 --> 01:21:32,310
them.

2352
01:21:33,410 --> 01:21:34,070
Yeah, I know.

2353
01:21:34,070 --> 01:21:40,430
And he was mostly in vaudeville, which is

2354
01:21:40,430 --> 01:21:41,890
how Emma knew him, because Emma was also

2355
01:21:41,890 --> 01:21:42,510
in vaudeville.

2356
01:21:43,050 --> 01:21:47,510
Emma got him into that one play, which

2357
01:21:47,510 --> 01:21:48,290
led to the movies.

2358
01:21:48,430 --> 01:21:49,870
And he was in a series of movies.

2359
01:21:49,870 --> 01:21:51,370
He did a lot of radio shows.

2360
01:21:51,430 --> 01:21:53,590
He was exceptionally popular because he was such

2361
01:21:53,590 --> 01:21:54,650
a goofball character.

2362
01:21:55,650 --> 01:21:57,190
And he had a funny delivery.

2363
01:21:57,510 --> 01:21:59,730
He'd be like, you know, my little chickadee.

2364
01:22:00,290 --> 01:22:01,730
And I would ask my dad as a

2365
01:22:01,730 --> 01:22:03,150
kid, did he talk like that?

2366
01:22:03,150 --> 01:22:04,270
And my dad would go, no, he talked

2367
01:22:04,270 --> 01:22:05,010
just like you and me.

2368
01:22:05,090 --> 01:22:06,050
What do you think?

2369
01:22:06,270 --> 01:22:07,230
He's just a person.

2370
01:22:08,830 --> 01:22:11,250
So in my life, I've been able to

2371
01:22:11,250 --> 01:22:13,130
meet lots of people who are famous, and

2372
01:22:13,130 --> 01:22:16,070
some people, you know, I feel sorry for

2373
01:22:16,070 --> 01:22:16,390
them.

2374
01:22:17,930 --> 01:22:21,250
Because you never have a moment without somebody

2375
01:22:21,250 --> 01:22:24,570
there or the paparazzi showing up and taking

2376
01:22:24,570 --> 01:22:27,670
pictures or people just intruding on you.

2377
01:22:28,670 --> 01:22:30,570
And so I've always just kind of like,

2378
01:22:30,690 --> 01:22:33,250
you know, I've— Let me say this about

2379
01:22:33,250 --> 01:22:33,650
that.

2380
01:22:34,010 --> 01:22:35,470
Yes, you know about that.

2381
01:22:35,770 --> 01:22:36,430
Yes, I do.

2382
01:22:36,830 --> 01:22:39,350
I am uniquely qualified to discuss this.

2383
01:22:40,190 --> 01:22:45,550
Any celebrity can get around that.

2384
01:22:46,430 --> 01:22:46,590
Yeah.

2385
01:22:46,650 --> 01:22:47,970
You can get around it.

2386
01:22:48,070 --> 01:22:50,090
You may have some restrictions on your life,

2387
01:22:50,150 --> 01:22:52,250
like maybe you can't eat at the Ivy

2388
01:22:52,250 --> 01:22:53,450
in Hollywood.

2389
01:22:54,450 --> 01:22:58,430
Or in an Out Burger with an Oscar

2390
01:22:58,430 --> 01:22:59,110
in your hand.

2391
01:22:59,110 --> 01:23:00,130
Maybe, maybe.

2392
01:23:00,390 --> 01:23:03,250
You know, I've had in the Netherlands when

2393
01:23:03,250 --> 01:23:04,930
I was with my first wife before we

2394
01:23:04,930 --> 01:23:06,610
were married, it was quite scandalous.

2395
01:23:07,270 --> 01:23:08,210
She was still married.

2396
01:23:08,410 --> 01:23:11,950
She was 16 years my senior, both in

2397
01:23:11,950 --> 01:23:13,470
show business, small country.

2398
01:23:14,090 --> 01:23:18,110
We had photographers in the trash can.

2399
01:23:18,210 --> 01:23:18,890
I kid you not.

2400
01:23:18,930 --> 01:23:19,610
It was hilarious.

2401
01:23:20,850 --> 01:23:24,990
But in general, it was quite easy to

2402
01:23:24,990 --> 01:23:28,950
get around stuff and not— I never felt

2403
01:23:28,950 --> 01:23:31,010
like, oh, I have no privacy.

2404
01:23:31,230 --> 01:23:31,990
I can't live.

2405
01:23:32,410 --> 01:23:34,430
You know, you don't have to live in

2406
01:23:34,430 --> 01:23:36,770
the big house in Brentwood.

2407
01:23:36,970 --> 01:23:38,590
You know, you can live all kinds of

2408
01:23:38,590 --> 01:23:39,250
different places.

2409
01:23:39,450 --> 01:23:40,630
Hollywood is not Hollywood.

2410
01:23:40,690 --> 01:23:43,390
You don't need to live there, which is

2411
01:23:43,390 --> 01:23:45,390
why I have so much respect for, you

2412
01:23:45,390 --> 01:23:49,310
know, many— like Harrison Ford doesn't need to

2413
01:23:49,310 --> 01:23:50,890
live somewhere in Montana or whatever.

2414
01:23:51,130 --> 01:23:51,870
Go away.

2415
01:23:51,930 --> 01:23:52,750
Go live somewhere else.

2416
01:23:52,910 --> 01:23:58,230
I have enjoyed fame for it, and I

2417
01:23:58,230 --> 01:24:02,470
can—I remember three specific instances.

2418
01:24:02,750 --> 01:24:05,450
And people know me from two things, and

2419
01:24:05,450 --> 01:24:06,470
it's been fantastic.

2420
01:24:06,590 --> 01:24:09,810
So when I was in my 1920s, I

2421
01:24:09,810 --> 01:24:12,370
was known in Holland and across Europe.

2422
01:24:13,030 --> 01:24:15,510
There was one scary kind of time when

2423
01:24:15,510 --> 01:24:17,170
I got mobbed at an airport in Portugal,

2424
01:24:17,190 --> 01:24:18,270
but it was also cool.

2425
01:24:18,390 --> 01:24:19,270
I'm like, wow, look at this.

2426
01:24:19,310 --> 01:24:19,910
I'm like the Beatles.

2427
01:24:20,390 --> 01:24:21,290
It was awesome.

2428
01:24:22,250 --> 01:24:23,590
But I was, you know, I was 20

2429
01:24:23,590 --> 01:24:25,770
or whatever, so it was—yeah, 20.

2430
01:24:26,990 --> 01:24:29,690
I remember moving to New York in the

2431
01:24:29,690 --> 01:24:32,870
late—mid to late 80s, and I was just

2432
01:24:32,870 --> 01:24:33,430
on MTV.

2433
01:24:33,630 --> 01:24:36,130
MTV had just gone to basic cable, 40

2434
01:24:36,130 --> 01:24:38,090
million households, so it was definitely a thing.

2435
01:24:39,030 --> 01:24:41,750
And we lived on 56th and Broadway, and

2436
01:24:41,750 --> 01:24:44,510
we walked to the Hard Rock Cafe on

2437
01:24:44,510 --> 01:24:45,810
57th.

2438
01:24:46,150 --> 01:24:48,570
And the Hard Rock, it was such a

2439
01:24:48,570 --> 01:24:48,870
thing.

2440
01:24:48,990 --> 01:24:51,270
I mean, people stood in line to get

2441
01:24:51,270 --> 01:24:51,970
into the Hard Rock.

2442
01:24:52,430 --> 01:24:54,330
And so we were in line, you know,

2443
01:24:54,390 --> 01:24:58,190
and I had my baseball cap on, whatever,

2444
01:24:58,370 --> 01:24:58,550
you know.

2445
01:24:59,310 --> 01:25:00,990
It wasn't necessarily a look at me.

2446
01:25:01,050 --> 01:25:02,990
I'm Adam Curry with the hair all poofed

2447
01:25:02,990 --> 01:25:03,190
up.

2448
01:25:03,810 --> 01:25:07,750
And I remember the doorman rushing up to

2449
01:25:07,750 --> 01:25:10,250
me and saying, hey, Adam, hey, man, you

2450
01:25:10,250 --> 01:25:11,110
don't have to stand in line.

2451
01:25:11,190 --> 01:25:11,750
Come on in.

2452
01:25:12,690 --> 01:25:14,050
And so we got in.

2453
01:25:14,130 --> 01:25:14,970
We ate for free.

2454
01:25:15,070 --> 01:25:16,530
They gave us all kinds of cool Hard

2455
01:25:16,530 --> 01:25:17,010
Rock stuff.

2456
01:25:17,110 --> 01:25:19,730
I remember thinking to myself, wow, that's really

2457
01:25:19,730 --> 01:25:20,130
odd.

2458
01:25:20,290 --> 01:25:22,150
Like two weeks ago, I would have had

2459
01:25:22,150 --> 01:25:23,550
to stay in the line, and now I'm

2460
01:25:23,550 --> 01:25:25,770
in here eating for free, getting free swag.

2461
01:25:26,050 --> 01:25:27,250
This is great.

2462
01:25:28,130 --> 01:25:30,410
And so that was the one time.

2463
01:25:31,630 --> 01:25:34,290
And so I'm either known for, you know,

2464
01:25:34,350 --> 01:25:35,110
those days.

2465
01:25:35,250 --> 01:25:37,130
I was known for MTV for a long

2466
01:25:37,130 --> 01:25:37,490
time.

2467
01:25:37,610 --> 01:25:41,070
It was bad and also not good for

2468
01:25:41,070 --> 01:25:42,250
me after I left MTV.

2469
01:25:42,390 --> 01:25:43,410
I started my company.

2470
01:25:44,930 --> 01:25:46,490
This became a big company.

2471
01:25:46,690 --> 01:25:49,670
We took it public on NASDAQ in 96,

2472
01:25:50,570 --> 01:25:58,190
and we had big customers, Budweiser, Reebok, IBM,

2473
01:25:58,810 --> 01:25:59,450
Avon.

2474
01:25:59,450 --> 01:26:02,250
Fortune 500 companies at the time.

2475
01:26:03,830 --> 01:26:06,290
And it was great because we do a

2476
01:26:06,290 --> 01:26:08,850
sales meeting, and pretty much this all fell

2477
01:26:08,850 --> 01:26:10,010
on the marketing department.

2478
01:26:10,190 --> 01:26:12,190
But they'd always bring in the IT guys,

2479
01:26:12,270 --> 01:26:17,490
so I could swoon over the ladies in

2480
01:26:17,490 --> 01:26:19,050
the marketing department who were going to make

2481
01:26:19,050 --> 01:26:19,510
decisions.

2482
01:26:19,690 --> 01:26:21,730
But I also had the technological background to

2483
01:26:21,730 --> 01:26:23,010
talk to the IT nerds.

2484
01:26:23,650 --> 01:26:24,770
That was good.

2485
01:26:24,770 --> 01:26:28,030
But the bad part was whenever we screwed

2486
01:26:28,030 --> 01:26:30,150
up, it's like I had to go fly,

2487
01:26:30,230 --> 01:26:31,770
and I had to go apologize to the

2488
01:26:31,770 --> 01:26:33,610
ladies in the marketing department.

2489
01:26:34,090 --> 01:26:36,150
I'll send the MTV guy in.

2490
01:26:36,930 --> 01:26:40,850
And now in my early 60s, I'm 61,

2491
01:26:41,530 --> 01:26:43,590
but ever since my 50s, you know, I've

2492
01:26:43,590 --> 01:26:47,050
been in Texas, kind of, you know, low

2493
01:26:47,050 --> 01:26:47,590
profile.

2494
01:26:47,790 --> 01:26:48,810
I'm just a dude.

2495
01:26:48,930 --> 01:26:49,910
You know, I'm a podcaster.

2496
01:26:50,110 --> 01:26:53,970
I'm known from Rogan and from podcasting.

2497
01:26:53,970 --> 01:26:57,890
And the only benefit, which I enjoy tremendously,

2498
01:26:58,710 --> 01:27:03,710
is that restaurants will always get me a

2499
01:27:03,710 --> 01:27:04,270
good table.

2500
01:27:04,710 --> 01:27:06,230
The owner always comes over.

2501
01:27:06,350 --> 01:27:08,370
He's got a Metallica t-shirt underneath, you

2502
01:27:08,370 --> 01:27:08,530
know.

2503
01:27:09,670 --> 01:27:12,110
And I have to say it's fantastic.

2504
01:27:12,330 --> 01:27:13,050
I love it.

2505
01:27:13,890 --> 01:27:15,030
And I'm a great tipper.

2506
01:27:15,590 --> 01:27:17,370
But value for value, baby.

2507
01:27:17,550 --> 01:27:19,250
I'm a value for value tipper.

2508
01:27:19,610 --> 01:27:21,710
I'm a great tipper because I was a

2509
01:27:21,710 --> 01:27:22,690
waitress for a long time.

2510
01:27:22,690 --> 01:27:26,450
So, okay, I've had this convoluted background, lived

2511
01:27:26,450 --> 01:27:29,050
in Reno and then lived in Iran, and

2512
01:27:29,050 --> 01:27:31,350
then came to California for a year.

2513
01:27:31,590 --> 01:27:33,910
And then my parents were deciding we went

2514
01:27:33,910 --> 01:27:34,930
back to Reno.

2515
01:27:35,590 --> 01:27:37,770
And my father was going back to being

2516
01:27:37,770 --> 01:27:40,090
a merchant marine, so he got offered a

2517
01:27:40,090 --> 01:27:44,510
job with Mattson Lines from Hawaii to the

2518
01:27:44,510 --> 01:27:45,090
West Coast.

2519
01:27:45,090 --> 01:27:48,190
So we went and stayed in Hawaii for

2520
01:27:48,190 --> 01:27:50,970
the entire three months of the summer because

2521
01:27:50,970 --> 01:27:53,110
my mother needed to be convinced that she

2522
01:27:53,110 --> 01:27:56,770
could live in Hawaii because that would be

2523
01:27:56,770 --> 01:27:58,690
my dad's home base in Honolulu.

2524
01:27:59,170 --> 01:28:02,710
So this was back before jumbo jets.

2525
01:28:03,210 --> 01:28:04,790
So Hawaii wasn't super crowded.

2526
01:28:04,930 --> 01:28:06,430
It was just for the ultra rich.

2527
01:28:06,810 --> 01:28:08,830
And we stayed at the Royal Hawaiian for

2528
01:28:08,830 --> 01:28:09,490
three months.

2529
01:28:11,210 --> 01:28:12,590
I had a great childhood.

2530
01:28:12,790 --> 01:28:14,090
This was like 68.

2531
01:28:14,610 --> 01:28:17,350
So my parents just let me have run

2532
01:28:17,350 --> 01:28:17,950
of the hotel.

2533
01:28:18,090 --> 01:28:18,770
So I could go down.

2534
01:28:18,930 --> 01:28:19,870
I could sign for food.

2535
01:28:20,110 --> 01:28:22,850
I could go to the beach before dawn,

2536
01:28:22,910 --> 01:28:24,670
and I usually left the room right before

2537
01:28:24,670 --> 01:28:28,030
dawn because I was a kid.

2538
01:28:29,010 --> 01:28:30,270
I had no controls.

2539
01:28:30,610 --> 01:28:31,530
I was everywhere.

2540
01:28:32,410 --> 01:28:34,070
So my favorite thing to do would be

2541
01:28:34,070 --> 01:28:36,630
to go sit next to the pool in

2542
01:28:36,630 --> 01:28:40,310
the Royal Hawaiian right before dawn because it

2543
01:28:40,310 --> 01:28:41,290
was amazing.

2544
01:28:41,290 --> 01:28:43,710
You could smell the plumeria, and you could

2545
01:28:43,710 --> 01:28:46,790
get all these great intoxicating scents, and then

2546
01:28:46,790 --> 01:28:50,390
breakfast would start, and it would slowly evolve

2547
01:28:50,390 --> 01:28:52,670
into the city waking up and the smell

2548
01:28:52,670 --> 01:28:53,810
of bacon cooking and all that.

2549
01:28:53,950 --> 01:28:56,890
So one morning I'm down there, and I've

2550
01:28:56,890 --> 01:28:58,710
got my feet in the pool, and somebody

2551
01:28:58,710 --> 01:29:00,230
comes up and sits down next to me,

2552
01:29:00,250 --> 01:29:01,710
and he was a couple years older than

2553
01:29:01,710 --> 01:29:01,950
me.

2554
01:29:02,270 --> 01:29:03,010
Really nice.

2555
01:29:03,650 --> 01:29:06,050
We hung out with each other for several

2556
01:29:06,050 --> 01:29:06,450
mornings.

2557
01:29:06,450 --> 01:29:09,030
But that one morning we just talked, and

2558
01:29:09,030 --> 01:29:10,950
he talked about what a burden it was

2559
01:29:10,950 --> 01:29:12,270
to be famous.

2560
01:29:13,270 --> 01:29:15,550
And he really influenced me in a lot

2561
01:29:15,550 --> 01:29:17,050
of ways because I could see it through

2562
01:29:17,050 --> 01:29:19,010
his eyes because he was really lamenting it.

2563
01:29:19,090 --> 01:29:22,130
I was lamenting being lonely because I had

2564
01:29:22,130 --> 01:29:22,990
my brother in Reno.

2565
01:29:23,250 --> 01:29:24,770
My brother had gone off to the university.

2566
01:29:25,490 --> 01:29:27,430
I kept getting ripped back and forth away

2567
01:29:27,430 --> 01:29:30,910
from friends, and I'm in Hawaii.

2568
01:29:31,030 --> 01:29:31,710
I don't know anybody.

2569
01:29:31,930 --> 01:29:33,790
I'm just the brat kid in the hotel.

2570
01:29:35,110 --> 01:29:37,570
And so for several mornings we would hang

2571
01:29:37,570 --> 01:29:37,810
out.

2572
01:29:37,890 --> 01:29:39,310
We'd run the beach before dawn.

2573
01:29:39,450 --> 01:29:40,890
We just had a great time.

2574
01:29:43,350 --> 01:29:45,630
And then his entourage would come down and

2575
01:29:45,630 --> 01:29:46,270
take him away.

2576
01:29:48,510 --> 01:29:54,600
And so then— You lost your train of

2577
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:55,340
thought, didn't you?

2578
01:29:55,380 --> 01:29:57,140
No, I was just trying to go which

2579
01:29:57,140 --> 01:30:00,160
direction to go, whether I tell you who

2580
01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:00,580
it is.

2581
01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:04,200
So one night my parents and I were

2582
01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:06,000
getting ready to go out to dinner, and

2583
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:08,220
my parents went to restaurants constantly.

2584
01:30:08,940 --> 01:30:11,580
And in the lobby, we'd come up on

2585
01:30:11,580 --> 01:30:13,760
him and his entourage, and he comes up,

2586
01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:15,700
and he says, Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Smith,

2587
01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:18,240
I have loved hanging out with your daughter.

2588
01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:21,580
She's been the bright point in my world.

2589
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:24,640
Mimi has been so kind to me.

2590
01:30:24,780 --> 01:30:27,180
Would you please come as my guest to

2591
01:30:27,180 --> 01:30:28,840
my performance tonight?

2592
01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:30,200
And here we go.

2593
01:30:30,280 --> 01:30:30,960
The big reveal.

2594
01:30:31,140 --> 01:30:31,680
Who was it?

2595
01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:33,120
It was Jim Morrison.

2596
01:30:34,500 --> 01:30:34,860
Wow.

2597
01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:35,720
Wait a minute.

2598
01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:36,600
Wait a minute.

2599
01:30:37,700 --> 01:30:39,280
John, is that where you met Mimi?

2600
01:30:40,060 --> 01:30:40,440
No.

2601
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,220
Hey, Dvorak, you missed your cue.

2602
01:30:44,340 --> 01:30:44,980
You missed your cue.

2603
01:30:45,100 --> 01:30:46,160
I know I missed the cue.

2604
01:30:46,300 --> 01:30:47,660
You guys are off the road.

2605
01:30:47,780 --> 01:30:49,120
You've driven off the road.

2606
01:30:49,440 --> 01:30:51,940
You're bouncing around in the desert now.

2607
01:30:52,620 --> 01:30:55,340
Ladies and gentlemen, he's back from the dead.

2608
01:30:55,440 --> 01:30:56,160
He lives.

2609
01:30:57,100 --> 01:30:58,600
Hey, you blew my punchline.

2610
01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:00,580
Yes, I'm out of the hospital, and I

2611
01:31:00,580 --> 01:31:01,840
should be doing the show on Sunday.

2612
01:31:02,340 --> 01:31:03,560
And I couldn't help it.

2613
01:31:03,740 --> 01:31:07,980
Since Adam invited me, hey, you could maybe

2614
01:31:07,980 --> 01:31:10,340
jump in the show here.

2615
01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:12,720
I kind of feel like it.

2616
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:13,860
And he steps on my punchline.

2617
01:31:13,860 --> 01:31:15,280
So we have a group here.

2618
01:31:15,780 --> 01:31:16,300
Hold on.

2619
01:31:16,300 --> 01:31:17,100
Hold on.

2620
01:31:17,140 --> 01:31:19,320
Mimi's complaining that you blew her punchline.

2621
01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:20,240
Let her get the punchline.

2622
01:31:20,300 --> 01:31:21,400
I know the punchline.

2623
01:31:21,500 --> 01:31:22,560
That's why I did it.

2624
01:31:25,440 --> 01:31:27,180
Oh, the Bickerson's are back.

2625
01:31:29,440 --> 01:31:32,920
So I'm actually given this opportunity.

2626
01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:34,140
You can't get her back on the road.

2627
01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:34,900
No.

2628
01:31:35,680 --> 01:31:36,440
Okay, you tell it.

2629
01:31:36,640 --> 01:31:37,760
I'm going to be silent.

2630
01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:39,940
Go ahead, John.

2631
01:31:40,100 --> 01:31:41,040
You can tell him.

2632
01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:42,860
You do the punchline for me.

2633
01:31:42,860 --> 01:31:43,500
I forgot the punchline.

2634
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:44,940
Okay.

2635
01:31:45,720 --> 01:31:46,120
Wow.

2636
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:48,480
So, yeah, never mind.

2637
01:31:48,580 --> 01:31:49,120
I'll tell you later.

2638
01:31:49,180 --> 01:31:50,380
No, no, no.

2639
01:31:50,700 --> 01:31:52,120
Everyone's on pins and needles.

2640
01:31:52,280 --> 01:31:52,980
Now we need to know.

2641
01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:53,820
So hold on.

2642
01:31:53,860 --> 01:31:54,960
It was Jim Morrison.

2643
01:31:55,860 --> 01:31:56,260
Right.

2644
01:31:56,260 --> 01:31:58,440
And he was getting ready to play the

2645
01:31:58,440 --> 01:32:02,840
big venue in Hawaii for one night.

2646
01:32:03,800 --> 01:32:06,840
And he invites my parents to come to

2647
01:32:06,840 --> 01:32:08,680
backstage to be able to see a show.

2648
01:32:09,020 --> 01:32:10,720
And before he even gets it out, my

2649
01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:12,120
mother goes, no, no, thank you.

2650
01:32:12,260 --> 01:32:12,460
No.

2651
01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:15,560
And we go to dinner.

2652
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:17,720
That's the punchline.

2653
01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:18,700
That is a good story.

2654
01:32:18,820 --> 01:32:19,640
That is a great story.

2655
01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:23,520
Hey, John, Mimi has been doing the show,

2656
01:32:23,620 --> 01:32:25,540
been filling in for you, been doing fantastic.

2657
01:32:27,480 --> 01:32:31,660
I have definitely concluded that without either one

2658
01:32:31,660 --> 01:32:33,540
of us, no agenda is not a show.

2659
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:37,220
I miss you.

2660
01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:40,280
But Mimi's been pretty fun.

2661
01:32:40,380 --> 01:32:41,100
I got to be honest.

2662
01:32:41,200 --> 01:32:42,000
No, she's good.

2663
01:32:42,740 --> 01:32:44,560
Except when she goes off driving off the

2664
01:32:44,560 --> 01:32:44,740
road.

2665
01:32:44,980 --> 01:32:46,380
Because what she was doing there, if you

2666
01:32:46,380 --> 01:32:47,900
remember, you're the one that triggered it, by

2667
01:32:47,900 --> 01:32:48,120
the way.

2668
01:32:48,180 --> 01:32:51,320
You basically said, Mimi, give us a shaggy

2669
01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:53,880
dog story on how you hate celebrities.

2670
01:32:54,200 --> 01:32:55,180
I did not.

2671
01:32:55,180 --> 01:32:56,020
I did not.

2672
01:32:58,280 --> 01:33:00,860
And the end of the shaggy dog story

2673
01:33:00,860 --> 01:33:02,000
is, no, I don't feel it.

2674
01:33:02,260 --> 01:33:04,260
It's just like the guy sitting at the

2675
01:33:04,260 --> 01:33:05,940
table and saying, hey, hey, Frank, Frank, Frank

2676
01:33:05,940 --> 01:33:08,040
Sinatra, say hi to me when you come

2677
01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:10,000
by because that's going to impress this girl.

2678
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:12,260
And then Frank goes and is walking by

2679
01:33:12,260 --> 01:33:13,680
the guy at the table.

2680
01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:15,540
And the guy is on the phone and

2681
01:33:15,540 --> 01:33:16,220
looks up at Frank.

2682
01:33:16,260 --> 01:33:17,880
He says, hey, hey, later maybe.

2683
01:33:19,700 --> 01:33:22,820
It's a kind of similar material.

2684
01:33:22,820 --> 01:33:25,200
So anyway, I'll be doing the show on

2685
01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:26,020
Sunday.

2686
01:33:26,300 --> 01:33:28,300
You sound the same.

2687
01:33:28,660 --> 01:33:29,400
It's like nothing.

2688
01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:31,020
Did you did you just go to the

2689
01:33:31,020 --> 01:33:32,180
Seychelles on vacation?

2690
01:33:32,420 --> 01:33:34,460
You don't sound like you've been operated on

2691
01:33:34,460 --> 01:33:35,220
at all.

2692
01:33:35,540 --> 01:33:35,860
At all.

2693
01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:36,540
Right.

2694
01:33:36,660 --> 01:33:36,820
Yeah.

2695
01:33:36,820 --> 01:33:38,600
Have your chest cracked open some day.

2696
01:33:38,660 --> 01:33:39,320
See what you think.

2697
01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:41,180
No, thank you.

2698
01:33:41,340 --> 01:33:41,980
I'll pass.

2699
01:33:43,040 --> 01:33:44,180
I'll pass if you don't mind.

2700
01:33:44,280 --> 01:33:46,120
Well, clearly, John got a good night's sleep

2701
01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:46,760
last night.

2702
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:47,700
I did not.

2703
01:33:48,320 --> 01:33:48,740
Why?

2704
01:33:50,140 --> 01:33:52,300
It's almost impossible to sleep because I like

2705
01:33:52,300 --> 01:33:52,600
to sleep.

2706
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:54,060
I'm a side sleeper just like Tucker.

2707
01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:54,400
I know.

2708
01:33:54,500 --> 01:33:55,820
I'm looking for somebody to claw me.

2709
01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:57,420
And it hasn't happened.

2710
01:33:57,720 --> 01:33:58,920
Ooh, a callback.

2711
01:33:59,080 --> 01:33:59,400
Nice.

2712
01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:00,060
He's on the phone.

2713
01:34:02,300 --> 01:34:03,740
And so I can't do that.

2714
01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:04,820
I have to sleep on my back.

2715
01:34:04,860 --> 01:34:06,400
And it's very tedious.

2716
01:34:07,500 --> 01:34:07,720
Aw.

2717
01:34:07,940 --> 01:34:08,780
Tedious is not good.

2718
01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:12,500
There is something in your voice that is

2719
01:34:12,500 --> 01:34:13,500
different.

2720
01:34:15,780 --> 01:34:19,100
There's like a small extra spark of enthusiasm.

2721
01:34:20,140 --> 01:34:21,180
Do you think that's possible?

2722
01:34:21,200 --> 01:34:22,280
I miss the audience.

2723
01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:22,740
Yeah.

2724
01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:24,360
The trolls miss you.

2725
01:34:24,360 --> 01:34:25,060
I miss you doing it.

2726
01:34:25,300 --> 01:34:25,460
Yeah.

2727
01:34:25,480 --> 01:34:26,800
Do you miss your wife at all?

2728
01:34:26,940 --> 01:34:28,580
I mean, just as an aside.

2729
01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:29,020
What?

2730
01:34:29,580 --> 01:34:30,940
I like the fact that she says it's

2731
01:34:30,940 --> 01:34:33,020
hard to do this three hours of yackety

2732
01:34:33,020 --> 01:34:33,340
-yack.

2733
01:34:34,760 --> 01:34:37,500
In the whole week of finding clips.

2734
01:34:39,620 --> 01:34:41,520
But I do better on ISOs than you

2735
01:34:41,520 --> 01:34:41,700
do.

2736
01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:42,680
Yeah, yeah.

2737
01:34:42,860 --> 01:34:44,380
Yeah, she's got nine ISOs.

2738
01:34:45,580 --> 01:34:47,140
Well, and also, by the way, I miss

2739
01:34:47,140 --> 01:34:47,600
you, Adam.

2740
01:34:48,340 --> 01:34:48,700
Aw.

2741
01:34:49,540 --> 01:34:50,320
Thank you, John.

2742
01:34:50,320 --> 01:34:51,660
So everybody out there should note that.

2743
01:34:51,660 --> 01:34:52,080
Yes.

2744
01:34:52,260 --> 01:34:53,380
And I miss you, too.

2745
01:34:53,420 --> 01:34:54,620
I said that to you privately.

2746
01:34:54,740 --> 01:34:56,400
I said, man, I miss you.

2747
01:34:56,700 --> 01:34:57,580
And I said it to Tina.

2748
01:34:57,700 --> 01:34:59,640
I said, you know, I never thought I'd

2749
01:34:59,640 --> 01:34:59,820
say...

2750
01:35:00,380 --> 01:35:01,100
Because initially...

2751
01:35:01,100 --> 01:35:02,240
I never thought I'd think that.

2752
01:35:02,480 --> 01:35:02,840
No.

2753
01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:04,700
No, this is interesting.

2754
01:35:04,820 --> 01:35:07,200
Because, you know, like a week ago, Tina's

2755
01:35:07,200 --> 01:35:08,500
like, can you call, John?

2756
01:35:08,540 --> 01:35:09,920
I'm like, what am I going to say?

2757
01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:11,560
We've got nothing to say to each other.

2758
01:35:11,620 --> 01:35:13,880
You've been around us when we're not on

2759
01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:14,280
the show.

2760
01:35:14,480 --> 01:35:15,760
I've got nothing to say.

2761
01:35:16,160 --> 01:35:17,560
And she's like, what?

2762
01:35:17,780 --> 01:35:19,120
I said, no, whatever.

2763
01:35:19,380 --> 01:35:19,820
He's okay.

2764
01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:22,880
And then, you know, I was like, Brunetti.

2765
01:35:23,260 --> 01:35:25,300
He said, oh, I talked to John Horowitz.

2766
01:35:25,420 --> 01:35:26,200
Oh, I talked to John.

2767
01:35:26,300 --> 01:35:28,400
I'm like, okay, now I got to talk

2768
01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:28,940
to John.

2769
01:35:29,460 --> 01:35:30,680
And I talked to you.

2770
01:35:30,740 --> 01:35:32,460
I was like, oh, I really miss this

2771
01:35:32,460 --> 01:35:32,780
guy.

2772
01:35:33,640 --> 01:35:35,580
It's, you know, 18 years is a long

2773
01:35:35,580 --> 01:35:36,020
time.

2774
01:35:37,480 --> 01:35:37,840
Yeah.

2775
01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:40,660
He didn't grouse for the first week, which

2776
01:35:40,660 --> 01:35:41,660
really scared me.

2777
01:35:42,340 --> 01:35:43,940
What, when you were married, the first week

2778
01:35:43,940 --> 01:35:44,440
of your marriage?

2779
01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:46,260
No, the first week he was in the

2780
01:35:46,260 --> 01:35:47,840
hospital, he barely groused.

2781
01:35:47,840 --> 01:35:49,080
He'd be like, uh.

2782
01:35:49,260 --> 01:35:50,840
And I was like, where's John?

2783
01:35:50,900 --> 01:35:51,960
I want John back.

2784
01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:53,640
I want him to say something mean to

2785
01:35:53,640 --> 01:35:53,860
me.

2786
01:35:54,660 --> 01:35:55,560
There you go.

2787
01:35:56,980 --> 01:35:58,920
On that note, like I said, I'll be

2788
01:35:58,920 --> 01:35:59,420
on Sunday.

2789
01:35:59,540 --> 01:36:01,600
And I hope you guys, I'll leave you

2790
01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:01,840
alone.

2791
01:36:01,920 --> 01:36:03,620
I was actually going to, intending on jumping

2792
01:36:03,620 --> 01:36:07,380
on the, into the stream during the donations

2793
01:36:07,380 --> 01:36:08,220
as a bonus.

2794
01:36:08,540 --> 01:36:10,260
We're just about to get into the donation

2795
01:36:10,260 --> 01:36:10,620
segment.

2796
01:36:10,740 --> 01:36:12,300
Yeah, well, this is good enough.

2797
01:36:12,820 --> 01:36:13,980
And so I, yes.

2798
01:36:14,480 --> 01:36:14,800
Okay.

2799
01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:17,460
So excuse me and I'll be on my

2800
01:36:17,460 --> 01:36:17,720
way.

2801
01:36:17,720 --> 01:36:18,380
All right.

2802
01:36:18,460 --> 01:36:19,880
Ladies and gentlemen, there he is.

2803
01:36:19,960 --> 01:36:20,860
John C.

2804
01:36:21,120 --> 01:36:21,560
Dvorak.

2805
01:36:21,980 --> 01:36:23,980
He put the C in cardiac arrest.

2806
01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:24,500
Beautiful.

2807
01:36:25,000 --> 01:36:25,440
All right.

2808
01:36:27,220 --> 01:36:28,040
All right, buddy.

2809
01:36:28,060 --> 01:36:29,040
I'll talk to you on Sunday.

2810
01:36:30,060 --> 01:36:30,220
Gotcha.

2811
01:36:30,480 --> 01:36:30,860
All right.

2812
01:36:30,900 --> 01:36:32,660
I'm disconnecting you now because I don't trust

2813
01:36:32,660 --> 01:36:32,880
you.

2814
01:36:33,020 --> 01:36:33,220
All right.

2815
01:36:33,240 --> 01:36:33,640
There we go.

2816
01:36:35,880 --> 01:36:37,640
So let's thank some people, Mimi, who have

2817
01:36:37,640 --> 01:36:40,600
been kind enough to, to support us.

2818
01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:43,300
And first was mentioned that this is a

2819
01:36:43,300 --> 01:36:44,840
value for value podcast.

2820
01:36:44,840 --> 01:36:47,740
Whatever value you get out of the podcast,

2821
01:36:47,900 --> 01:36:49,820
the whole idea is you put it right

2822
01:36:49,820 --> 01:36:50,600
back into it.

2823
01:36:51,040 --> 01:36:52,220
And you can do that with your time,

2824
01:36:52,340 --> 01:36:55,940
your talent, your treasure, any amount, any type

2825
01:36:55,940 --> 01:36:57,060
of talent or time.

2826
01:36:57,560 --> 01:36:59,340
Lots of people help out doing meetups.

2827
01:37:00,460 --> 01:37:03,960
People build websites, maintain servers, void zero, always

2828
01:37:03,960 --> 01:37:05,360
making sure that we're up and running.

2829
01:37:05,880 --> 01:37:09,180
And there's always the, the artwork, which has

2830
01:37:09,180 --> 01:37:10,680
gotten easier for people to do.

2831
01:37:11,440 --> 01:37:14,580
But still it's, there's real work involved, you

2832
01:37:14,580 --> 01:37:15,100
know, typing.

2833
01:37:15,700 --> 01:37:17,980
So we want to thank the artists for

2834
01:37:17,980 --> 01:37:19,400
episode 1851.

2835
01:37:19,660 --> 01:37:21,360
We titled that one, Mark and Mimi.

2836
01:37:21,540 --> 01:37:22,280
I couldn't resist.

2837
01:37:22,880 --> 01:37:25,820
And the artwork was from the Baron Darren

2838
01:37:25,820 --> 01:37:26,400
O'Neill.

2839
01:37:28,580 --> 01:37:30,560
This was one that John would have liked.

2840
01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:32,820
Typically I would have said like, ah, it's

2841
01:37:32,820 --> 01:37:33,420
too busy.

2842
01:37:33,520 --> 01:37:35,640
It looks like a cartoon, but because we

2843
01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:37,520
had that whole lobster gate bit.

2844
01:37:38,080 --> 01:37:39,020
Did you see the art?

2845
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:39,840
Did you see the art?

2846
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:40,960
I did not.

2847
01:37:41,120 --> 01:37:41,700
I'm sorry.

2848
01:37:41,860 --> 01:37:42,520
Oh, well, thanks.

2849
01:37:43,660 --> 01:37:44,860
Darren's happy to hear that.

2850
01:37:45,540 --> 01:37:47,400
It was, it was a dynamite piece, you

2851
01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:49,580
know, it was lobsters and the lobsters were

2852
01:37:49,580 --> 01:37:50,580
going to war.

2853
01:37:50,940 --> 01:37:53,320
And, you know, it was, it was a

2854
01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:57,740
very classy, classy, classy classic piece for no

2855
01:37:57,740 --> 01:37:58,120
agenda.

2856
01:37:58,300 --> 01:38:00,000
And Baron Darren O'Neill did a great

2857
01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:00,640
job on that.

2858
01:38:00,700 --> 01:38:03,640
And next week we'll return to grousing about

2859
01:38:03,640 --> 01:38:04,060
the art.

2860
01:38:04,420 --> 01:38:05,640
John and I will be doing it together.

2861
01:38:06,060 --> 01:38:08,760
But first I'm going to thank our executive

2862
01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:11,420
and associate executive producers for episode 1852.

2863
01:38:11,420 --> 01:38:14,340
We thank everybody $50 and above.

2864
01:38:14,780 --> 01:38:17,000
You can send your support to the show,

2865
01:38:17,100 --> 01:38:19,340
your value to noagendadonations.com.

2866
01:38:19,400 --> 01:38:22,060
We kick it off with an anonymous donation

2867
01:38:22,060 --> 01:38:24,320
from Marietta, Georgia, $1,000.

2868
01:38:24,940 --> 01:38:25,460
Boom.

2869
01:38:26,300 --> 01:38:29,040
And here's the note that anonymous sent.

2870
01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:31,540
John and Adam, and I'm going to add

2871
01:38:31,540 --> 01:38:32,040
Mimi there.

2872
01:38:32,300 --> 01:38:33,460
I just want to say thank you for

2873
01:38:33,460 --> 01:38:34,780
the last 18 years.

2874
01:38:35,080 --> 01:38:37,080
I'm 38 years old, middle-aged, and I've

2875
01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:38,680
been listening to you guys for my entire

2876
01:38:38,680 --> 01:38:39,480
adult life.

2877
01:38:39,480 --> 01:38:43,240
I've graduated college, started a career, married my

2878
01:38:43,240 --> 01:38:45,580
wife of 15 years, got a second degree,

2879
01:38:45,800 --> 01:38:48,940
have three wonderful children, and started a successful

2880
01:38:48,940 --> 01:38:49,460
business.

2881
01:38:49,960 --> 01:38:51,700
I'm hoping one of those or two of

2882
01:38:51,700 --> 01:38:53,420
those kids are named John and Adam, because

2883
01:38:53,420 --> 01:38:54,600
that is kind of the agreement.

2884
01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:55,480
Or Mimi.

2885
01:38:55,680 --> 01:38:56,140
Or Mimi.

2886
01:38:56,460 --> 01:38:57,360
John, Adam, Mimi.

2887
01:38:57,500 --> 01:38:57,860
There you go.

2888
01:38:57,940 --> 01:38:58,420
There's the kids.

2889
01:38:58,520 --> 01:38:58,960
Hey, kids.

2890
01:39:00,060 --> 01:39:03,400
There have been wars, economic turmoil, presidencies, the

2891
01:39:03,400 --> 01:39:05,580
pandemic, and much more between now and then.

2892
01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:07,580
A lot has happened between then and now.

2893
01:39:07,580 --> 01:39:09,200
And I guess what I'm trying to say

2894
01:39:09,200 --> 01:39:10,940
is that I'm grateful, I'm grateful that you

2895
01:39:10,940 --> 01:39:13,000
guys have been a consistent source of reason,

2896
01:39:13,260 --> 01:39:14,220
humor, and calm.

2897
01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:16,800
I imagine sometimes it's nice to look back

2898
01:39:16,800 --> 01:39:17,960
on your body of work.

2899
01:39:18,060 --> 01:39:19,480
Oh, it's such a body of work.

2900
01:39:20,360 --> 01:39:21,080
Here's Whitesnake.

2901
01:39:21,620 --> 01:39:23,360
And feel like it made an impact.

2902
01:39:24,020 --> 01:39:25,100
That it was worth it.

2903
01:39:25,180 --> 01:39:26,240
That it was worth something.

2904
01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:28,140
And I hope, well, yes, a note like

2905
01:39:28,140 --> 01:39:29,040
this makes it worth it.

2906
01:39:29,340 --> 01:39:30,760
And I hope you two know that what

2907
01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:32,280
you have done for the last 18 years

2908
01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:33,240
was a worthy endeavor.

2909
01:39:33,340 --> 01:39:34,240
Is this like a eulogy?

2910
01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:35,400
Are we both dead now?

2911
01:39:35,480 --> 01:39:36,380
Is that what's going on here?

2912
01:39:36,380 --> 01:39:38,800
Not just for me, but I suspect for

2913
01:39:38,800 --> 01:39:40,880
many others living life with you from a

2914
01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:41,220
distance.

2915
01:39:41,680 --> 01:39:43,880
John's recent heart surgery made me realize that

2916
01:39:43,880 --> 01:39:45,460
one day the show will end.

2917
01:39:45,700 --> 01:39:47,760
And that thought made me take a stock

2918
01:39:47,760 --> 01:39:49,680
in how much I've appreciated you over the

2919
01:39:49,680 --> 01:39:50,620
last 18 years.

2920
01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:53,060
I didn't want to wait another day to

2921
01:39:53,060 --> 01:39:54,420
say a simple thank you.

2922
01:39:54,640 --> 01:39:56,760
So thank you from Anonymous.

2923
01:39:56,940 --> 01:39:58,040
That's a nice note.

2924
01:39:58,480 --> 01:39:59,420
Thank you very much.

2925
01:40:00,120 --> 01:40:01,660
Yeah, that's actually lovely.

2926
01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:03,860
So that means it's a night now, right?

2927
01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:05,280
Yes.

2928
01:40:05,280 --> 01:40:08,260
But, of course, I guess we'll be doing

2929
01:40:08,260 --> 01:40:11,620
that on Sunday, all nightings and day mings.

2930
01:40:12,160 --> 01:40:14,980
Do it next Thursday, because that gives John

2931
01:40:14,980 --> 01:40:16,640
time to get back into it before you're

2932
01:40:16,640 --> 01:40:18,320
swinging around that sword for so much.

2933
01:40:18,420 --> 01:40:19,540
Yeah, good point.

2934
01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:21,720
We don't want him to pull something.

2935
01:40:23,160 --> 01:40:27,280
So the next one is Don Tommaso DiTorrento.

2936
01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:28,800
Yes.

2937
01:40:29,020 --> 01:40:30,800
From Kettleby, Ontario, Canada.

2938
01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:35,000
$888.88. I sense the give reason John

2939
01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:36,300
a reason to live.

2940
01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:36,920
Yes.

2941
01:40:37,060 --> 01:40:41,440
From Don Tommaso DiTorrento.

2942
01:40:41,540 --> 01:40:43,320
No jingles, just JCD karma.

2943
01:40:45,660 --> 01:40:47,360
You've got karma.

2944
01:40:48,860 --> 01:40:50,520
Coming in with $388.

2945
01:40:50,560 --> 01:40:52,260
Got those lucky $88 in there.

2946
01:40:53,100 --> 01:40:56,500
Sir Chris and Dame Kristen from Carmel-by

2947
01:40:56,500 --> 01:40:57,660
-the-Sea, California.

2948
01:40:57,800 --> 01:40:58,580
Lovely place.

2949
01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:02,540
Is Clint Eastwood still the mayor over there?

2950
01:41:02,540 --> 01:41:02,960
Carmel?

2951
01:41:03,160 --> 01:41:04,340
Wasn't he the mayor of Carmel?

2952
01:41:05,020 --> 01:41:05,300
Maybe.

2953
01:41:05,680 --> 01:41:07,960
And you see the attached note?

2954
01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:09,040
Here it is.

2955
01:41:09,180 --> 01:41:11,680
Dear John, I rode the California Zephyr down

2956
01:41:11,680 --> 01:41:14,780
from Truckee and naturally thought of you and

2957
01:41:14,780 --> 01:41:16,300
hope you're getting along okay.

2958
01:41:17,020 --> 01:41:19,340
Oh, these are all beautiful get well cards.

2959
01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:20,960
Hope you're getting, yeah.

2960
01:41:21,060 --> 01:41:23,640
Here's wishing you love and luck from Dame

2961
01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:25,860
Kristen and me for a speedy recovery.

2962
01:41:26,080 --> 01:41:27,840
All the best to you and the entire

2963
01:41:27,840 --> 01:41:28,880
No Agenda family.

2964
01:41:30,100 --> 01:41:30,640
Cheers.

2965
01:41:31,100 --> 01:41:31,660
That's beautiful.

2966
01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:36,520
And Baron Sir Cycle Path from Charlotte, North

2967
01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:37,100
Carolina.

2968
01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:40,360
$333.34. Get well, John.

2969
01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:41,120
Yes.

2970
01:41:41,300 --> 01:41:42,000
Very nice.

2971
01:41:44,440 --> 01:41:46,860
When you play it once, people, of course,

2972
01:41:46,920 --> 01:41:48,200
start to request it right away.

2973
01:41:48,320 --> 01:41:53,120
William Jennison from Gresham in Oregon says, I

2974
01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:53,700
love you guys.

2975
01:41:53,720 --> 01:41:54,980
Just want some karma for John.

2976
01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:57,040
Also first time donor, so a de-douching

2977
01:41:57,040 --> 01:41:57,660
would be cool.

2978
01:41:59,040 --> 01:42:00,800
You've been de-douched.

2979
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:02,960
And he winds up with Adam.

2980
01:42:03,040 --> 01:42:03,600
You're amazing.

2981
01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:04,020
Amen.

2982
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:05,300
I love ants.

2983
01:42:05,580 --> 01:42:06,080
All right.

2984
01:42:06,140 --> 01:42:07,460
We'll play a little bit of the ant

2985
01:42:07,460 --> 01:42:09,140
song, even though we played lots of it

2986
01:42:09,140 --> 01:42:10,000
on the last show.

2987
01:42:10,520 --> 01:42:11,820
It is indeed the classic.

2988
01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:13,440
I got ants.

2989
01:42:17,780 --> 01:42:19,200
I got ants.

2990
01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:25,600
You've got karma.

2991
01:42:28,600 --> 01:42:29,240
Okay.

2992
01:42:33,370 --> 01:42:35,910

This donation is a piggyback to one of

2997
01:42:44,470 --> 01:42:45,970

01:43:25,090 --> 01:43:25,870
Again, get well, John.

3016
01:43:25,930 --> 01:43:27,350
We love Mimi, but want to hear your

3017
01:43:27,350 --> 01:43:28,270
voice again soon.

3018
01:43:28,430 --> 01:43:30,130
Sincerely, Dennis Cadel.

3019
01:43:30,810 --> 01:43:31,310
Cadel.

3020
01:43:31,570 --> 01:43:32,070
All right.

3021
01:43:32,290 --> 01:43:32,910
Very nice.

.22 and 22 cents.

3024
01:43:39,750 --> 01:43:41,870
Thanks for continuing the show in John's absence.

3025
01:43:42,390 --> 01:43:44,350
This is the perfect time to ask Mimi,

3026
01:43:44,990 --> 01:43:47,630
where's our signed photo of you and John

3027
01:43:47,630 --> 01:43:49,030
on your wedding day?

3028
01:43:49,490 --> 01:43:52,290
We donated for this special promotion in 2018

3029
01:43:52,290 --> 01:43:54,750
and are still waiting to receive this keepsake

3030
01:43:54,750 --> 01:43:55,130
photo.

3031
01:43:56,290 --> 01:43:57,910
You've got to talk to John about that.

3032
01:43:58,530 --> 01:44:00,250
I don't know where he put them, but

3033
01:44:00,250 --> 01:44:01,990
we'll get you something signed.

3034
01:44:02,330 --> 01:44:02,710
Okay.

3035
01:44:03,030 --> 01:44:03,790
Yeah, sure.

3036
01:44:04,410 --> 01:44:07,210
It's all on Dvorak.org slash NA.

3037
01:44:07,370 --> 01:44:08,290
It's safely stored.

3038
01:44:08,390 --> 01:44:08,890
Don't worry.

3039
01:44:09,650 --> 01:44:09,870
Yeah.

3040
01:44:10,530 --> 01:44:14,910
Sam Rickman, Peck, Michigan, $200 and 88 cents.

3041
01:44:17,470 --> 01:44:19,310
Adam, John, and Mimi, along with the rest

3042
01:44:19,310 --> 01:44:20,950
of the back office, thank you for all

3043
01:44:20,950 --> 01:44:21,390
you do.

3044
01:44:21,590 --> 01:44:23,530
John, I'm 35 years old, born with a

3045
01:44:23,530 --> 01:44:25,870
congenital heart defect, and I've had three open

3046
01:44:25,870 --> 01:44:27,810
heart surgeries by the time I was 14.

3047
01:44:28,130 --> 01:44:28,550
Show off.

3048
01:44:30,450 --> 01:44:32,070
That's time for a zipper.

3049
01:44:32,430 --> 01:44:34,750
I have a horror story or two.

3050
01:44:35,210 --> 01:44:37,410
F that one surgeon, but it's not as

3051
01:44:37,410 --> 01:44:40,090
bad as everyone claims, especially with morphine and

3052
01:44:40,090 --> 01:44:40,990
you're in good hands.

3053
01:44:42,010 --> 01:44:43,770
Anyway, I wish John the best of luck

3054
01:44:43,770 --> 01:44:46,550
in his recovery and simply ask for some

3055
01:44:46,550 --> 01:44:49,130
health karma for John and some relationship karma

3056
01:44:49,130 --> 01:44:49,850
for myself.

3057
01:44:50,150 --> 01:44:51,530
Love and light, Sam Rickman.

3058
01:44:53,670 --> 01:44:55,450
You've got karma.

3059
01:44:59,050 --> 01:45:01,810
And, well, we're at Linda Lupakin, the last

3060
01:45:01,810 --> 01:45:04,410

3061

Rock, Colorado, and she wants Jobs Karma.

3062
01:45:06,750 --> 01:45:08,550
And as always, she says, for a competitive

3063
01:45:08,550 --> 01:45:10,710
edge with a resume that gets results, go

3064
01:45:10,710 --> 01:45:12,710

resume moves forward.

3071
01:45:28,130 --> 01:45:31,050
Duchess of Jobs, writer of winning resumes, P

3072
01:45:31,050 --> 01:45:32,850
.S., great job, Mimi.

01:45:33,070 --> 01:45:36,510
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

3074
01:45:36,710 --> 01:45:38,210
Let's vote for jobs.

3075
01:45:38,830 --> 01:45:40,230
You've got karma.

3076
01:45:40,890 --> 01:45:43,250
And that wraps up our Executive and Associate

3077
01:45:43,250 --> 01:45:45,590
Executive Producers for Episode 1852.

3078
01:45:45,590 --> 01:45:49,150
Remember, these are real credits, Hollywood recognizes them,

3079
01:45:49,230 --> 01:45:50,590
you can use them anywhere you want.

3080
01:45:51,330 --> 01:45:53,210
You might even get into the immemorium dead

3081
01:45:53,210 --> 01:45:54,270
segment, if you're lucky.

3082
01:45:54,730 --> 01:45:55,990
Well, unlucky, I guess.

3083
01:45:56,450 --> 01:45:58,630
You can put them on IMDb.com, that's

3084
01:45:58,630 --> 01:46:00,530
clearly where they're getting all these names from.

3085
01:46:01,010 --> 01:46:03,090
And you also get that credit, they're good

3086
01:46:03,090 --> 01:46:05,150
forever, and if anyone ever grouses about these

3087
01:46:05,150 --> 01:46:06,570
credits, we're happy to vouch for you.

3088
01:46:06,830 --> 01:46:11,050
Go to NoAgendaDonations.com, that's NoAgendaDonations.com, you

3089
01:46:11,050 --> 01:46:13,910

3090
01:46:13,910 --> 01:46:14,530
value to you.

3091
01:46:14,530 --> 01:46:16,730
Whatever you think the show is worth, every

3092
01:46:16,730 --> 01:46:19,410
single penny is highly appreciated.

3093
01:46:19,510 --> 01:46:20,970
We'll thank the rest of our $50 and

3094
01:46:20,970 --> 01:46:22,310
above donors in the second segment.

3095

Again, NoAgendaDonations.com, you can set up a

3096
01:46:25,610 --> 01:46:28,130
recurring donation, any amount, any frequency.

3097
01:46:28,830 --> 01:46:32,430
NoAgendaDonations.com, congratulations to these Executive and Associate

3098
01:46:32,430 --> 01:46:32,810
Executives.

3099
01:46:32,870 --> 01:46:34,070
Our formula is this.

3100
01:46:34,870 --> 01:46:37,170
We go out, we hit people in the

3101
01:46:37,170 --> 01:46:37,390
mouth.

3102
01:46:42,400 --> 01:46:43,040
Order!

3103
01:46:44,560 --> 01:46:45,200
Order!

3104
01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:47,040
Shut up, slave!

3105
01:46:48,100 --> 01:46:49,860
Shut up, slave!

3106
01:46:52,460 --> 01:46:53,060
Yeah!

3107
01:46:53,800 --> 01:46:56,100
Oh, this was a nice story.

3108
01:46:58,940 --> 01:47:02,240
So, the dog shooter got kicked out, Kristi

3109
01:47:02,240 --> 01:47:02,500
Noem.

3110
01:47:02,540 --> 01:47:03,420
Yeah, yep.

3111
01:47:03,600 --> 01:47:05,960
And did you see any of the confirmation

3112
01:47:05,960 --> 01:47:07,680
hearing with this new guy, Mullen?

3113
01:47:08,300 --> 01:47:15,740
I did, but he doesn't have much personality.

3114
01:47:16,100 --> 01:47:17,920
Oh, did you see the tearjerker moment?

3115
01:47:18,620 --> 01:47:18,980
No.

3116
01:47:19,180 --> 01:47:21,280
Oh, this is, I mean, I saw this,

3117
01:47:21,340 --> 01:47:22,100
I'm like, you're confirmed.

3118
01:47:22,260 --> 01:47:23,540
Oh, wait a minute, I hate Trump, I

3119
01:47:23,540 --> 01:47:26,080
can't confirm him, but wait, I'm confused.

3120
01:47:26,440 --> 01:47:28,900
So, my son was a really world-class

3121
01:47:28,900 --> 01:47:33,620
athlete, and January 17th of 2020, which, mind

3122
01:47:33,620 --> 01:47:35,680
you, was an election year, he had a

3123
01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:36,760
really serious brain injury.

3124
01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:38,420
And the President found out about it, and

3125
01:47:38,420 --> 01:47:39,500
he gave me a call immediately.

3126
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:41,320
He didn't understand the severity of it, but

3127
01:47:41,320 --> 01:47:42,600
he heard it in my voice, and immediately

3128
01:47:42,600 --> 01:47:43,220
he went to work.

3129
01:47:43,440 --> 01:47:45,160
He called almost every day for two weeks,

3130
01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:45,900
checking on Jim.

3131
01:47:46,220 --> 01:47:47,240
And then he says, I'm going to come

3132
01:47:47,240 --> 01:47:47,640
see him.

3133
01:47:48,140 --> 01:47:49,840
The Senator told us that the short-term

3134
01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:51,560
memory loss, something would trigger it.

3135
01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:53,220
Some big event would eventually trigger where he

3136
01:47:53,220 --> 01:47:54,200
would start retaining stuff.

3137
01:47:54,320 --> 01:47:55,400
Until then, he was still having issues.

3138
01:47:56,940 --> 01:47:59,920
And the President arrived, and for the next

3139
01:47:59,920 --> 01:48:02,360
15 minutes, he did nothing but love on

3140
01:48:02,360 --> 01:48:02,840
my son.

3141
01:48:13,140 --> 01:48:15,200
That one incident jogged his memory.

3142
01:48:16,480 --> 01:48:18,280
And from then on, he started retaining things.

3143
01:48:18,520 --> 01:48:21,940
And Jim's attitude went from this, you know,

3144
01:48:22,100 --> 01:48:23,240
we're going to get through it, to this,

3145
01:48:23,340 --> 01:48:24,220
I'm going to get through it.

3146
01:48:24,660 --> 01:48:25,740
When we got released a little bit, the

3147
01:48:25,740 --> 01:48:27,120
President said, come to Mar-a-Lago and

3148
01:48:27,120 --> 01:48:27,500
see me.

3149
01:48:28,320 --> 01:48:31,280
We go down there, and it was amazing.

3150
01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:37,240
And when we're leaving, dang it, I hate

3151
01:48:37,240 --> 01:48:37,720
getting emotional.

3152
01:48:38,600 --> 01:48:39,980
See, if I talk about my kids, I

3153
01:48:39,980 --> 01:48:40,400
get emotional.

3154
01:48:40,580 --> 01:48:41,660
Other than that, you can't make me cry.

3155
01:48:41,880 --> 01:48:44,040
Anyways, he grabbed my son, and he said,

3156
01:48:44,120 --> 01:48:45,240
do you know why I love your dad?

3157
01:48:45,740 --> 01:48:46,540
Do you know why I love your dad?

3158
01:48:47,160 --> 01:48:48,440
Chris, he tells the story better than I

3159
01:48:48,440 --> 01:48:48,620
do.

3160
01:48:48,700 --> 01:48:49,500
And he goes, no, sir.

3161
01:48:49,560 --> 01:48:52,180
He goes, because he loves you, because of

3162
01:48:52,180 --> 01:48:53,260
you, because of you.

3163
01:48:56,920 --> 01:48:58,420
Man, he didn't do it for any other

3164
01:48:58,420 --> 01:48:58,700
reason.

3165
01:48:58,820 --> 01:48:59,760
I mean, here's the President of the United

3166
01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:01,460
States, and he did it just because he

3167
01:49:01,460 --> 01:49:01,740
cared.

3168
01:49:02,420 --> 01:49:03,600
I believe that story.

3169
01:49:04,320 --> 01:49:04,600
Yeah.

3170
01:49:04,780 --> 01:49:05,980
I totally believe that.

3171
01:49:07,040 --> 01:49:07,360
Yeah.

3172
01:49:08,140 --> 01:49:08,500
Aw.

3173
01:49:09,180 --> 01:49:09,520
Yeah.

3174
01:49:09,900 --> 01:49:12,500
You know, I think more people should get

3175
01:49:12,500 --> 01:49:13,940
choked up when they speak.

3176
01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:15,440
Yes.

3177
01:49:15,940 --> 01:49:17,560
I'll try and do it on Sunday.

3178
01:49:17,680 --> 01:49:18,480
It may not be easy.

3179
01:49:18,580 --> 01:49:19,740
I'm going to try and get choked up

3180
01:49:19,740 --> 01:49:21,540
and try and be all emotional about it,

3181
01:49:21,560 --> 01:49:23,060
because I'm sure John will hate it.

3182
01:49:24,140 --> 01:49:25,060
I'm sure he would.

3183
01:49:25,080 --> 01:49:26,000
He said he missed me.

3184
01:49:26,100 --> 01:49:26,800
Did you hear him?

3185
01:49:26,840 --> 01:49:27,280
You heard him.

3186
01:49:27,340 --> 01:49:27,920
He said he missed me.

3187
01:49:27,980 --> 01:49:28,440
I heard it.

3188
01:49:28,600 --> 01:49:29,640
You got it on tape, right?

3189
01:49:29,800 --> 01:49:30,100
Yeah.

3190
01:49:30,300 --> 01:49:30,620
Yeah.

3191
01:49:30,780 --> 01:49:31,040
OK.

3192
01:49:31,440 --> 01:49:34,080
Right next to, right next to.

3193
01:49:34,780 --> 01:49:37,940
I can't stand one more fucking jello cup.

3194
01:49:38,060 --> 01:49:38,240
Yeah.

3195
01:49:38,400 --> 01:49:39,240
Right next to that one.

3196
01:49:39,500 --> 01:49:40,220
I record.

3197
01:49:40,360 --> 01:49:41,280
It's all recorded.

3198
01:49:42,220 --> 01:49:42,820
All right.

3199
01:49:42,880 --> 01:49:44,040
You're out in California.

3200
01:49:44,140 --> 01:49:44,500
Let's talk.

3201
01:49:44,620 --> 01:49:45,440
Let's talk fraud.

3202
01:49:46,420 --> 01:49:47,960
But I mean, you're out in California on

3203
01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:48,560
the West Coast.

3204
01:49:48,660 --> 01:49:50,040
You're on the fraud coast.

3205
01:49:50,500 --> 01:49:53,140
Well, do we want to talk about Chavez

3206
01:49:53,140 --> 01:49:53,860
first?

3207
01:49:54,400 --> 01:49:55,200
Getting canceled?

3208
01:49:55,700 --> 01:49:56,160
Yeah, sure.

3209
01:49:56,240 --> 01:49:56,500
Whatever.

3210
01:49:56,640 --> 01:49:57,220
That's fine.

3211
01:49:57,460 --> 01:49:57,700
OK.

3212
01:49:57,940 --> 01:49:58,820
Let's start with that.

3213
01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:00,160
I have no idea what's going on.

3214
01:50:00,260 --> 01:50:01,400
Chavez getting canceled.

3215
01:50:01,480 --> 01:50:01,920
Here we go.

3216
01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:02,300
All right.

3217
01:50:02,300 --> 01:50:03,400
Let's start with the troubling details of a

3218
01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:06,220
New York Times investigation into sexual assault allegations

3219
01:50:06,220 --> 01:50:10,340
against farm labor icon and Arizona native Cesar

3220
01:50:10,340 --> 01:50:10,740
Chavez.

3221
01:50:11,260 --> 01:50:13,280
Two women have now come forward to accuse

3222
01:50:13,280 --> 01:50:16,160
Chavez of rape, and several others say he

3223
01:50:16,160 --> 01:50:17,240
sexually abused them.

3224
01:50:17,760 --> 01:50:20,100
Perhaps most shocking is the account from Dolores

3225
01:50:20,100 --> 01:50:22,660
Huerta, the now 95-year-old co-founder

3226
01:50:22,660 --> 01:50:24,380
of the UFW.

3227
01:50:24,900 --> 01:50:26,900
And now tonight, several groups and cities are

3228
01:50:26,900 --> 01:50:28,580
canceling events in Chavez's name.

3229
01:50:28,700 --> 01:50:30,820
Brian Webb is live to continue our coverage

3230
01:50:30,820 --> 01:50:31,160
tonight.

3231
01:50:31,160 --> 01:50:32,720
Hi, Christina.

3232
01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:34,640
The Cesar Chavez name is all over the

3233
01:50:34,640 --> 01:50:36,800
valley, from schools to dog parks, and this

3234
01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:38,940
plaza in downtown Phoenix right by City Hall.

3235
01:50:39,340 --> 01:50:41,400
Not to mention several events on Cesar Chavez

3236
01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:43,100
Day, March 31st.

3237
01:50:43,120 --> 01:50:46,280
But that is quickly changing after interviews of

3238
01:50:46,280 --> 01:50:49,660
more than 60 aides and relatives, union records,

3239
01:50:49,820 --> 01:50:51,600
pictures, e-mails, and recordings.

3240
01:50:51,940 --> 01:50:54,580
Pictures of Cesar Chavez are already off the

3241
01:50:54,580 --> 01:50:57,020
walls at El Portal Restaurant in South Phoenix.

3242
01:50:57,240 --> 01:51:00,920
The owner knew, worked, and revered Chavez, Mary

3243
01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:02,080
Rose Wilcox.

3244
01:51:02,240 --> 01:51:05,940
Very humble, very passionate about making sure that

3245
01:51:05,940 --> 01:51:08,180
social justice got carried out for all people.

3246
01:51:08,460 --> 01:51:10,800
Wilcox served on the Phoenix City Council and

3247
01:51:10,800 --> 01:51:12,840
was a supervisor in Maricopa County.

3248
01:51:13,220 --> 01:51:15,680
But before that, she was an immigration activist

3249
01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:19,920
and first met Chavez in 1971, helping organize

3250
01:51:19,920 --> 01:51:21,360
unions for farm workers.

3251
01:51:21,700 --> 01:51:24,400
She remembers him as humble and kind.

3252
01:51:24,560 --> 01:51:25,900
Just heartbroken about him.

3253
01:51:25,900 --> 01:51:29,080
You know, I'm really torn, because I really,

3254
01:51:29,100 --> 01:51:30,900
you know, revered Chavez.

3255
01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:33,440
And now I look at it, and I'm

3256
01:51:33,440 --> 01:51:34,220
just sick about it.

3257
01:51:34,380 --> 01:51:35,880
You know, I found out last night, and

3258
01:51:35,880 --> 01:51:37,880
my husband and I both had a terrible

3259
01:51:37,880 --> 01:51:38,220
night.

3260
01:51:38,580 --> 01:51:40,160
And this morning we woke up and said,

3261
01:51:40,240 --> 01:51:41,260
we have to make a statement.

3262
01:51:41,660 --> 01:51:44,220
And you know, you're really torn, because there's

3263
01:51:44,220 --> 01:51:45,200
two Chavez's.

3264
01:51:45,380 --> 01:51:47,580
There's the one Chavez who did all these

3265
01:51:47,580 --> 01:51:50,540
good things and passed all this legislation, and

3266
01:51:50,540 --> 01:51:53,320
was a passionate man who won farm workers'

3267
01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:53,900
rights.

3268
01:51:53,900 --> 01:51:55,540
And now you find out there was another

3269
01:51:55,540 --> 01:51:56,660
Chavez we didn't know.

3270
01:51:58,060 --> 01:52:00,280
Is this the old Hugo Chavez?

3271
01:52:00,740 --> 01:52:01,520
The old old dude?

3272
01:52:01,540 --> 01:52:01,800
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

3273
01:52:02,020 --> 01:52:02,540
Cesar.

3274
01:52:02,940 --> 01:52:03,360
He died.

3275
01:52:03,360 --> 01:52:04,740
But how old are these women?

3276
01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:07,700
In their 80s and 90s.

3277
01:52:07,700 --> 01:52:08,280
Oh, okay.

3278
01:52:08,500 --> 01:52:09,620
They don't sound like it.

3279
01:52:09,660 --> 01:52:10,620
They don't sound that old.

3280
01:52:10,700 --> 01:52:14,240
Well, I mean, it'd be a little late

3281
01:52:14,240 --> 01:52:15,120
to speak up.

3282
01:52:15,700 --> 01:52:17,460
So they're tearing down history.

3283
01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:19,460
This is absolutely tearing down history.

3284
01:52:20,020 --> 01:52:22,120
You know, I met Cesar in about 72.

3285
01:52:22,120 --> 01:52:22,800
Here we go.

3286
01:52:22,920 --> 01:52:23,380
Here we go.

3287
01:52:23,380 --> 01:52:23,880
Of course I did.

3288
01:52:23,960 --> 01:52:24,960
We are going into the story.

3289
01:52:25,600 --> 01:52:27,060
Is this going to be one where your

3290
01:52:27,060 --> 01:52:28,580
mom said, we're not going to Cuba?

3291
01:52:28,920 --> 01:52:30,140
Is that how this ends?

3292
01:52:30,360 --> 01:52:30,620
No, no.

3293
01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:32,080
Cesar was from Arizona.

3294
01:52:32,660 --> 01:52:33,600
No, he was okay.

3295
01:52:33,780 --> 01:52:37,960
I mean, it was, my boyfriend at the

3296
01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:40,000
time's father worked for the co-op stores,

3297
01:52:40,180 --> 01:52:43,840
and he was big on the civil rights

3298
01:52:43,840 --> 01:52:46,480
movement, and Cesar, he was helping Cesar.

3299
01:52:47,680 --> 01:52:50,500
So this is a prime example of tearing

3300
01:52:50,500 --> 01:52:52,120
down history for a reason.

3301
01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:52,620
Yes.

3302
01:52:53,080 --> 01:52:55,240
So I start looking around to try to

3303
01:52:55,240 --> 01:52:57,640
figure out why, and it becomes very obvious

3304
01:52:57,640 --> 01:52:59,180
when you listen to some of his old

3305
01:52:59,180 --> 01:53:01,760
speeches, because- Oh, yeah.

3306
01:53:01,800 --> 01:53:03,260
He hated illegal immigration.

3307
01:53:04,300 --> 01:53:06,820
So I have a 1972 interview and a

3308
01:53:06,820 --> 01:53:08,100
1974 interview.

3309
01:53:08,400 --> 01:53:08,900
All right.

3310
01:53:08,980 --> 01:53:09,420
72.

3311
01:53:09,880 --> 01:53:10,940
We've gotten very few.

3312
01:53:11,360 --> 01:53:12,860
And then all of a sudden, yesterday morning,

3313
01:53:13,100 --> 01:53:15,340
they brought in 220 wetbacks.

3314
01:53:15,660 --> 01:53:17,540
These are the illegals from Mexico.

3315
01:53:17,720 --> 01:53:19,760
Now, there's no way to defend against that

3316
01:53:19,760 --> 01:53:20,620
kind of strike breaking.

3317
01:53:20,620 --> 01:53:22,960
And so therefore, the only way to win

3318
01:53:22,960 --> 01:53:25,720
strikes is by then taking our fight to

3319
01:53:25,720 --> 01:53:28,760
the citizens, to the people in the city

3320
01:53:28,760 --> 01:53:31,560
especially, and have them help us boycott those

3321
01:53:31,560 --> 01:53:32,600
products that were striking.

3322
01:53:32,920 --> 01:53:34,160
And we need that.

3323
01:53:34,360 --> 01:53:35,540
And that's the only way we've been able

3324
01:53:35,540 --> 01:53:36,320
to get contracts.

3325
01:53:36,500 --> 01:53:38,860
And I venture to say that without that,

3326
01:53:38,940 --> 01:53:40,460
we couldn't possibly organize unions.

3327
01:53:43,640 --> 01:53:46,840
So what would happen was they would, at

3328
01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:48,360
the time the grapes were a big thing,

3329
01:53:48,740 --> 01:53:49,400
boycott grapes.

3330
01:53:49,720 --> 01:53:52,680
But the workers had stopped working in an

3331
01:53:52,680 --> 01:53:57,180
attempt to force the owners and everybody in

3332
01:53:57,180 --> 01:53:59,240
the area to give them decent wages.

3333
01:54:00,160 --> 01:54:03,900
So the next interview actually tells really what

3334
01:54:03,900 --> 01:54:04,520
happened.

3335
01:54:04,940 --> 01:54:05,940
It's a great interview.

3336
01:54:06,380 --> 01:54:08,660
This question of the illegals is I find

3337
01:54:08,660 --> 01:54:09,320
very interesting.

3338
01:54:09,740 --> 01:54:12,260
Would you say that it's at this particular

3339
01:54:12,260 --> 01:54:14,860
moment as important as any of the other

3340
01:54:14,860 --> 01:54:16,080
problems facing the union?

3341
01:54:16,200 --> 01:54:16,840
Oh, yes.

3342
01:54:16,960 --> 01:54:18,420
In the last three weeks, it's become...

3343
01:54:18,420 --> 01:54:19,920
In the last two weeks, it has become

3344
01:54:19,920 --> 01:54:21,820
an emergency for us.

3345
01:54:21,900 --> 01:54:23,600
There's an awful lot of illegals coming in.

3346
01:54:23,900 --> 01:54:25,880
By the hundreds, by the thousands, our people

3347
01:54:25,880 --> 01:54:28,980
are not only in some of the crews

3348
01:54:28,980 --> 01:54:32,260
where there's now strike breaking, some of those

3349
01:54:32,260 --> 01:54:37,320
crews are 100% illegals outright, openly, with

3350
01:54:37,320 --> 01:54:39,060
no attempt to disguise it.

3351
01:54:39,840 --> 01:54:42,080
And so it's so bad now that we

3352
01:54:42,080 --> 01:54:44,620
estimate 60 to 70% of the farm

3353
01:54:44,620 --> 01:54:48,080
workers in California are the resident worker, the

3354
01:54:48,080 --> 01:54:49,940
citizen is out of a job because of

3355
01:54:49,940 --> 01:54:50,420
the wetbacks.

3356
01:54:50,480 --> 01:54:52,920
They're coming in by the thousands, just unbelievable.

3357
01:54:53,580 --> 01:54:55,040
See, they're coming in with a consent of

3358
01:54:55,040 --> 01:54:56,800
the Immigration Service, which is part of the

3359
01:54:56,800 --> 01:54:57,600
Department of Justice.

3360
01:54:57,940 --> 01:54:58,840
How else could they come?

3361
01:54:58,960 --> 01:55:00,720
We, for instance, know that if you go

3362
01:55:00,720 --> 01:55:02,940
to Coachella, you go around the El Paso

3363
01:55:02,940 --> 01:55:08,880
area, the second day immigration checkpoints have been

3364
01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:12,200
unmanned now for, oh, at least three, four

3365
01:55:12,200 --> 01:55:12,500
weeks.

3366
01:55:12,620 --> 01:55:13,180
They're closed.

3367
01:55:13,540 --> 01:55:15,260
At night, they're dark.

3368
01:55:15,260 --> 01:55:16,760
There aren't any patrolmen there.

3369
01:55:17,480 --> 01:55:18,300
It's a gimmick.

3370
01:55:18,620 --> 01:55:20,120
We think that it's a prelude at the

3371
01:55:20,120 --> 01:55:21,820
beginning to a big drive on the part

3372
01:55:21,820 --> 01:55:24,800
of the administration and the Mexican government to

3373
01:55:24,800 --> 01:55:26,340
bring the Bracero program again.

3374
01:55:26,720 --> 01:55:29,780
It's a vicious attack on the local worker,

3375
01:55:29,980 --> 01:55:32,280
and it's just one of those things that

3376
01:55:32,280 --> 01:55:33,820
every business thinks they can get away with

3377
01:55:33,820 --> 01:55:35,400
it, and our job is to inform the

3378
01:55:35,400 --> 01:55:38,420
whole country what's happening, together with a boycott,

3379
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:40,520
and solve it that way.

3380
01:55:41,160 --> 01:55:42,300
Who was president then?

3381
01:55:43,240 --> 01:55:45,680
It was Nixon and then Gerald Ford.

3382
01:55:48,420 --> 01:55:54,740
So the Bracero program was started after World

3383
01:55:54,740 --> 01:55:57,680
War II to bring contract workers up from

3384
01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:00,500
Mexico, and then they could stay for a

3385
01:56:00,500 --> 01:56:01,740
visa, then they had to go back.

3386
01:56:01,880 --> 01:56:04,140
And that happened all the time.

3387
01:56:04,800 --> 01:56:04,920
Yeah.

3388
01:56:04,920 --> 01:56:08,000
But in this case, he was for the

3389
01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:10,180
farm workers who were, you know.

3390
01:56:10,440 --> 01:56:10,820
Here legally.

3391
01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:12,560
Here legally, right.

3392
01:56:13,200 --> 01:56:15,020
So I think this is an attempt to

3393
01:56:15,020 --> 01:56:16,760
completely erase his memory.

3394
01:56:19,620 --> 01:56:22,560
It's completely erased how he began a labor

3395
01:56:22,560 --> 01:56:23,020
movement.

3396
01:56:23,240 --> 01:56:25,580
But when I start looking around, I think

3397
01:56:25,580 --> 01:56:28,120
that Martin Luther King Jr. should be a

3398
01:56:28,120 --> 01:56:28,680
little afraid.

3399
01:56:29,180 --> 01:56:30,100
Can you play that clip?

3400
01:56:30,740 --> 01:56:33,740
I have a dream that my four little

3401
01:56:33,740 --> 01:56:36,160
children will one day live in a nation

3402
01:56:36,160 --> 01:56:38,260
where they will not be judged by the

3403
01:56:38,260 --> 01:56:40,380
color of their skin, but by the content

3404
01:56:40,380 --> 01:56:41,280
of their character.

3405
01:56:41,560 --> 01:56:43,080
I have a dream today.

3406
01:56:43,480 --> 01:56:45,500
Martin Luther King Jr. remains one of the

3407
01:56:45,500 --> 01:56:47,580
most revered figures of the 20th century.

3408
01:56:47,820 --> 01:56:50,260
A minister, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, and

3409
01:56:50,260 --> 01:56:52,160
the voice of the civil rights movement whose

3410
01:56:52,160 --> 01:56:54,500
I have a dream speech continues to echo

3411
01:56:54,500 --> 01:56:55,100
through history.

3412
01:56:55,280 --> 01:56:57,460
Yet behind the pulpit and marches lay a

3413
01:56:57,460 --> 01:56:59,540
private life now shadowed by controversy.

3414
01:56:59,540 --> 01:57:02,580
Recently unearthed FBI files and reports from the

3415
01:57:02,580 --> 01:57:06,340
National Archives have resurfaced shocking allegations of King's

3416
01:57:06,340 --> 01:57:07,500
serial infidelity.

3417
01:57:07,720 --> 01:57:10,080
He had sexual encounters with up to 40

3418
01:57:10,080 --> 01:57:12,220
women and was present during acts of abuse

3419
01:57:12,220 --> 01:57:12,860
by others.

3420
01:57:13,180 --> 01:57:13,740
Yeah.

3421
01:57:13,820 --> 01:57:14,620
Why do you think that?

3422
01:57:14,680 --> 01:57:15,980
Who do you think is behind this?

3423
01:57:16,040 --> 01:57:16,260
Why?

3424
01:57:16,420 --> 01:57:17,740
Why are they doing this?

3425
01:57:22,710 --> 01:57:23,010
Hello?

3426
01:57:24,350 --> 01:57:25,710
No, I lost you, Mimi.

3427
01:57:25,890 --> 01:57:27,050
I see you're connected.

3428
01:57:28,710 --> 01:57:29,270
Hello?

3429
01:57:30,530 --> 01:57:30,890
Hello?

3430
01:57:31,170 --> 01:57:31,730
Hello?

3431
01:57:32,110 --> 01:57:33,070
Hello, Mimi?

3432
01:57:33,370 --> 01:57:33,770
Oh, there you are.

3433
01:57:33,770 --> 01:57:33,970
There you are.

3434
01:57:34,350 --> 01:57:34,810
You back?

3435
01:57:35,590 --> 01:57:35,910
No.

3436
01:57:36,690 --> 01:57:37,190
No.

3437
01:57:37,410 --> 01:57:38,930
No, you've muted yourself now.

3438
01:57:39,050 --> 01:57:39,510
What happened?

3439
01:57:40,330 --> 01:57:41,390
That was odd.

3440
01:57:43,170 --> 01:57:43,530
Hello?

3441
01:57:43,870 --> 01:57:44,850
I see you're still connected.

3442
01:57:45,110 --> 01:57:45,630
Yeah, you're mute.

3443
01:57:45,690 --> 01:57:46,850
Now you've muted yourself.

3444
01:57:47,030 --> 01:57:49,550
So click on the green microphone and unmute

3445
01:57:49,550 --> 01:57:50,030
yourself.

3446
01:57:54,250 --> 01:57:54,630
Hello?

3447
01:57:56,230 --> 01:57:57,350
Podcaster down!

3448
01:57:57,590 --> 01:57:58,690
Podcaster down!

3449
01:58:00,530 --> 01:58:03,170
You've got to, you've got to click unmute

3450
01:58:03,170 --> 01:58:06,980
on the green button.

3451
01:58:08,500 --> 01:58:11,540
Yeah, are you okay?

3452
01:58:12,260 --> 01:58:15,340
Now I'm concerned, because I know you can

3453
01:58:15,340 --> 01:58:17,500
hear me, so you've muted yourself, but what?

3454
01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:18,780
Oh, oh no!

3455
01:58:19,580 --> 01:58:20,360
She's left!

3456
01:58:21,060 --> 01:58:23,340
All right, we'll set a time marker here,

3457
01:58:23,420 --> 01:58:24,380
and we'll see what happens.

3458
01:58:24,820 --> 01:58:25,640
There we go.

3459
01:58:28,300 --> 01:58:28,780
Connecting?

3460
01:58:29,060 --> 01:58:30,280
Ah, you're still muted.

3461
01:58:31,180 --> 01:58:34,280
Click the green microphone button, or the white

3462
01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:35,480
microphone button.

3463
01:58:37,360 --> 01:58:37,880
Hmm.

3464
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:39,820
All right, there I am.

3465
01:58:40,000 --> 01:58:40,780
Am I back on?

3466
01:58:40,940 --> 01:58:41,480
Yeah, what happened?

3467
01:58:42,940 --> 01:58:43,820
Solar flares.

3468
01:58:44,340 --> 01:58:46,320
Oh, okay.

3469
01:58:47,240 --> 01:58:47,980
Solar flare.

3470
01:58:48,180 --> 01:58:50,180
So my question was, why do you think

3471
01:58:50,180 --> 01:58:51,260
this is happening right now?

3472
01:58:52,720 --> 01:58:55,760
I think it's happening because of the whole

3473
01:58:55,760 --> 01:58:56,620
ice thing.

3474
01:58:56,620 --> 01:58:59,720
They can't have a hero who's talking about

3475
01:58:59,720 --> 01:59:01,180
wetbacks and illegal immigrants.

3476
01:59:01,380 --> 01:59:02,540
I think that's part of it.

3477
01:59:03,060 --> 01:59:07,040
And I think that it's just heavy-handed.

3478
01:59:07,440 --> 01:59:09,860
It's like, are we trying to destroy the

3479
01:59:09,860 --> 01:59:11,100
Farm Workers Union?

3480
01:59:11,660 --> 01:59:13,240
Are we trying to...

3481
01:59:13,240 --> 01:59:16,280
I think it's a backlash against him.

3482
01:59:17,780 --> 01:59:19,940
You know, but it's like, let's tear down

3483
01:59:19,940 --> 01:59:20,300
history.

3484
01:59:20,420 --> 01:59:22,520
Let's rewrite history, because I'm seeing history being

3485
01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:24,040
rewritten every which way.

3486
01:59:24,040 --> 01:59:26,060
Well, hold on, but this is true history,

3487
01:59:26,100 --> 01:59:26,660
is it not?

3488
01:59:28,120 --> 01:59:28,880
What part?

3489
01:59:28,980 --> 01:59:30,920
The women who are 80 years old suddenly

3490
01:59:30,920 --> 01:59:32,540
remembering that they were...

3491
01:59:32,540 --> 01:59:35,140
Yeah, that's probably true.

3492
01:59:37,120 --> 01:59:39,680
The Martin Luther King stuff is probably true.

3493
01:59:39,860 --> 01:59:41,780
I mean, there's lots of evidence of that.

3494
01:59:42,200 --> 01:59:43,740
Yeah, and let's wait until people are dead

3495
01:59:43,740 --> 01:59:46,100
and they can't defend themselves.

3496
01:59:46,840 --> 01:59:48,460
Well, yeah, that's what you do.

3497
01:59:48,820 --> 01:59:50,020
You know, I find it to be a

3498
01:59:50,020 --> 01:59:52,200
little...

3499
01:59:52,200 --> 01:59:53,180
Yeah, I know.

3500
01:59:53,420 --> 01:59:56,200
It's just, I think it's just, it's more...

3501
01:59:56,740 --> 01:59:58,340
I think it's falsely...

3502
01:59:58,340 --> 01:59:59,380
Like, we've had a lot of things up

3503
01:59:59,380 --> 02:00:02,680
here where entire narratives have been changed in

3504
02:00:02,680 --> 02:00:03,120
history.

3505
02:00:03,580 --> 02:00:05,640
And I think that, you know, rearranging, rewriting

3506
02:00:05,640 --> 02:00:09,020
history is not a good thing.

3507
02:00:09,580 --> 02:00:12,740
But that, you know, it plays into, you

3508
02:00:12,740 --> 02:00:13,820
know, all the fraud.

3509
02:00:15,520 --> 02:00:16,060
Okay.

3510
02:00:16,360 --> 02:00:19,000
Well, I'll just say that, you know, I

3511
02:00:19,000 --> 02:00:20,820
like it when history is...

3512
02:00:21,660 --> 02:00:24,700
When a different history emerges, such as we

3513
02:00:24,700 --> 02:00:25,600
didn't land on the moon.

3514
02:00:25,840 --> 02:00:27,520
I like it when that emerges.

3515
02:00:27,660 --> 02:00:29,260
I like it when those things happen.

3516
02:00:29,760 --> 02:00:32,040
Now, this doesn't bother me that much.

3517
02:00:34,560 --> 02:00:36,980
To me, it's not quite the same as

3518
02:00:36,980 --> 02:00:40,320
taking down statues of Washington and Jefferson or,

3519
02:00:40,740 --> 02:00:42,950
you know, that's a little different.

3520
02:00:44,330 --> 02:00:45,370
Do you...

3521
02:00:45,370 --> 02:00:47,090
The street names are getting changed.

3522
02:00:47,210 --> 02:00:47,570
They took...

3523
02:00:47,570 --> 02:00:50,610
They're taking away his day that they just...

3524
02:00:50,610 --> 02:00:53,550
Obama was the one who gave Caesar Chavez

3525
02:00:53,550 --> 02:00:55,890
Day on March 31st.

3526
02:00:56,090 --> 02:00:56,370
Oh, well, okay.

3527
02:00:56,470 --> 02:00:56,930
There you go.

3528
02:00:57,210 --> 02:00:59,270
They're renaming schools and dog parks.

3529
02:00:59,430 --> 02:01:01,790
I mean, it is completely erasing him from

3530
02:01:01,790 --> 02:01:02,130
history.

3531
02:01:02,270 --> 02:01:03,370
It's not adding a footnote.

3532
02:01:03,550 --> 02:01:03,990
Oh, okay.

3533
02:01:04,130 --> 02:01:04,490
All right.

3534
02:01:04,610 --> 02:01:06,270
No, I disagree with that.

3535
02:01:06,410 --> 02:01:08,250
I don't think that's necessary.

3536
02:01:09,390 --> 02:01:10,050
That's interesting.

3537
02:01:10,050 --> 02:01:12,230
I've not picked up on this happening at

3538
02:01:12,230 --> 02:01:12,510
all.

3539
02:01:15,930 --> 02:01:18,790
You know, there are tons and tons of...

3540
02:01:18,790 --> 02:01:21,090
Fraud that's going on is unbelievable to me.

3541
02:01:21,410 --> 02:01:21,710
Yes.

3542
02:01:22,270 --> 02:01:24,050
Tina's been keeping me up to speed on

3543
02:01:24,050 --> 02:01:24,830
that a little bit.

3544
02:01:25,230 --> 02:01:27,690
So, there was a petition fraud in California.

3545
02:01:28,070 --> 02:01:28,510
It's ABC.

3546
02:01:29,290 --> 02:01:29,770
All right.

3547
02:01:29,810 --> 02:01:31,850
A video making its rounds on social media

3548
02:01:31,850 --> 02:01:35,250
appears to show people getting paid $5 to

3549
02:01:35,250 --> 02:01:36,650
sign a ballot initiative.

3550
02:01:36,730 --> 02:01:39,270
And it has people really criticizing the signature

3551
02:01:39,270 --> 02:01:40,990
-gathering process.

3552
02:01:40,990 --> 02:01:42,050
Take a look at this video.

3553
02:01:42,510 --> 02:01:44,770
This was posted on X by JJ Smith,

3554
02:01:44,770 --> 02:01:46,530
who tells us that he saw this happen

3555
02:01:46,530 --> 02:01:47,510
in San Francisco.

3556
02:01:47,510 --> 02:01:49,170
He says that he noticed a line of

3557
02:01:49,170 --> 02:01:51,730
people waiting to sign what appears to be

3558
02:01:51,730 --> 02:01:53,410
ballot initiatives at a table.

3559
02:01:53,850 --> 02:01:55,390
One of the people in line tells him

3560
02:01:55,390 --> 02:01:57,490
that you can receive $5 if you sign

3561
02:01:57,490 --> 02:01:57,970
the petition.

3562
02:01:58,310 --> 02:02:00,450
Now, in the video, a woman behind the

3563
02:02:00,450 --> 02:02:03,110
table appears to tell people what name and

3564
02:02:03,110 --> 02:02:05,270
address to sign on that petition.

3565
02:02:05,990 --> 02:02:08,450
Smith says the entire encounter made him question

3566
02:02:08,450 --> 02:02:09,950
the legality of the process.

3567
02:02:09,950 --> 02:02:12,770
They was coaching them to what name they

3568
02:02:12,770 --> 02:02:15,370
signed, what address and what city.

3569
02:02:15,710 --> 02:02:17,350
And right there that rang the bell in

3570
02:02:17,350 --> 02:02:18,890
my head is like, that turned on a

3571
02:02:18,890 --> 02:02:20,850
light in my head, like, that's not legal.

3572
02:02:21,110 --> 02:02:22,410
Why not sign your own name?

3573
02:02:22,770 --> 02:02:25,770
Building a Better California is a policy organization

3574
02:02:25,770 --> 02:02:28,630
who says this was one of their campaign

3575
02:02:28,630 --> 02:02:30,290
documents that was being signed.

3576
02:02:30,450 --> 02:02:33,230
A spokesperson with the organization says they are

3577
02:02:33,230 --> 02:02:35,710
outraged and do not tolerate this type of

3578
02:02:35,710 --> 02:02:39,310
fraudulent activity in the signature-gathering process.

3579
02:02:39,310 --> 02:02:42,550
Yeah, this is one part of it.

3580
02:02:43,110 --> 02:02:47,470
The Medicare fraud is what's most unbelievable.

3581
02:02:47,770 --> 02:02:50,730
And unfortunately, they're throwing people in jail who

3582
02:02:50,730 --> 02:02:53,050
are just pawns in the whole game.

3583
02:02:53,570 --> 02:02:54,750
Well, let's go back.

3584
02:02:54,990 --> 02:02:55,190
OK.

3585
02:02:55,430 --> 02:02:59,230
The billionaire's tax in California, they have to

3586
02:02:59,230 --> 02:03:04,830
come up with 800,000 valid signatures by

3587
02:03:04,830 --> 02:03:05,250
June.

3588
02:03:05,430 --> 02:03:07,010
Oh, I see what's happening.

3589
02:03:07,690 --> 02:03:13,590
The whole initiative is sponsored by the SEIUHW,

3590
02:03:14,770 --> 02:03:17,070
which is a California-based union of over

3591
02:03:17,070 --> 02:03:18,710
100,000 health care workers.

3592
02:03:19,490 --> 02:03:23,350
The group's leadership usually accuses corporations of Medicare

3593
02:03:23,350 --> 02:03:25,550
fraud, but they've also had a lot of

3594
02:03:25,550 --> 02:03:29,710
internal allegations of corruption, including in 2023 when

3595
02:03:29,710 --> 02:03:32,370
the SEIU vice president was convicted in federal

3596
02:03:32,370 --> 02:03:36,350
court of 14 counts, which included embezzlement of

3597
02:03:36,350 --> 02:03:38,630
union funds, tax violations, and mail fraud.

3598
02:03:38,650 --> 02:03:39,350
Oh, we're gambling.

3599
02:03:39,430 --> 02:03:42,410
Which leads us right into Nick Shirley just

3600
02:03:42,410 --> 02:03:43,390
dropped a new video.

3601
02:03:43,790 --> 02:03:43,970
Yeah.

3602
02:03:44,110 --> 02:03:45,130
Oh, you said dropped.

3603
02:03:45,270 --> 02:03:46,050
OK, he dropped.

3604
02:03:46,230 --> 02:03:47,290
Yes, he dropped a new video.

3605
02:03:47,450 --> 02:03:48,790
Do you want to do this billionaire's tax

3606
02:03:48,790 --> 02:03:49,370
first?

3607
02:03:50,250 --> 02:03:51,510
You know, I'm going to leave that for

3608
02:03:51,510 --> 02:03:52,950
John because he'll love to go into that

3609
02:03:52,950 --> 02:03:54,310
more because this is not going to go

3610
02:03:54,310 --> 02:03:54,570
away.

3611
02:03:54,790 --> 02:03:55,050
OK.

3612
02:03:55,890 --> 02:03:57,510
So, which Nick Shirley?

3613
02:03:57,510 --> 02:03:59,730
Nick Shirley knew on California fraud.

3614
02:04:00,230 --> 02:04:02,790
California may have the largest amount of fraud

3615
02:04:02,790 --> 02:04:04,850
in the country as California is the state

3616
02:04:04,850 --> 02:04:07,190
with the highest taxes and collects more money

3617
02:04:07,190 --> 02:04:09,070
than any other state in America.

3618
02:04:09,270 --> 02:04:10,930
It is filled with fraud.

3619
02:04:11,310 --> 02:04:14,030
California's version of Medicaid called Medi-Cal has

3620
02:04:14,030 --> 02:04:18,130
more than doubled since 2022 from $108 billion

3621
02:04:18,130 --> 02:04:22,510
to a proposed $222 billion in 2026.

3622
02:04:22,510 --> 02:04:25,810
Their population, however, has not grown exponentially.

3623
02:04:26,590 --> 02:04:28,750
However, their spending has.

3624
02:04:29,050 --> 02:04:31,070
There has been a thousand percent increase in

3625
02:04:31,070 --> 02:04:33,190
hospice care in the Los Angeles County.

3626
02:04:33,610 --> 02:04:35,510
In fact, one out of every ten dollars

3627
02:04:35,510 --> 02:04:37,890
of home health care in America is spent

3628
02:04:37,890 --> 02:04:39,090
in Los Angeles.

3629
02:04:39,590 --> 02:04:41,630
On top of that, their government funded daycare

3630
02:04:41,630 --> 02:04:44,610
programs are filled with violations while they continue

3631
02:04:44,610 --> 02:04:46,030
to give money to these fraudsters.

3632
02:04:46,430 --> 02:04:48,410
It is estimated that the fraud in California

3633
02:04:48,410 --> 02:04:51,150
could be in the hundreds of billions of

3634
02:04:51,150 --> 02:04:51,630
dollars.

3635
02:04:51,630 --> 02:04:52,290
Yeah.

3636
02:04:52,910 --> 02:04:53,510
Yeah.

3637
02:04:54,050 --> 02:04:55,750
Good reason to tax billionaires.

3638
02:04:56,210 --> 02:04:58,270
So Nick went to an old motel that

3639
02:04:58,270 --> 02:05:00,290
has been converted into office spaces.

3640
02:05:00,850 --> 02:05:03,310
There were 80 some hospices in this one

3641
02:05:03,310 --> 02:05:03,930
place.

3642
02:05:04,110 --> 02:05:06,430
Some were empty, you know, just like the

3643
02:05:06,430 --> 02:05:08,310
whole thing with child care in Minnesota.

3644
02:05:08,930 --> 02:05:11,070
Lots of expensive cars in the parking lot.

3645
02:05:11,470 --> 02:05:13,890
So then later in his video, he does

3646
02:05:13,890 --> 02:05:16,030
outline how this works.

3647
02:05:16,130 --> 02:05:18,250
And that's the Nick Shirley outlines.

3648
02:05:18,250 --> 02:05:21,030
The way these hospices are able to enroll

3649
02:05:21,030 --> 02:05:23,330
these people and collect money from Medicare and

3650
02:05:23,330 --> 02:05:26,190
MediCal here inside of California is they collect

3651
02:05:26,190 --> 02:05:29,350
the Medicare numbers from individuals and then sign

3652
02:05:29,350 --> 02:05:32,150
them up for hospice without them even knowing.

3653
02:05:32,470 --> 02:05:34,350
I actually went and spoke with a professional

3654
02:05:34,350 --> 02:05:36,670
inside of the medical industry to get her

3655
02:05:36,670 --> 02:05:38,470
opinion on how this all works.

3656
02:05:38,630 --> 02:05:40,910
We're seeing all these hospices pop up here.

3657
02:05:41,510 --> 02:05:43,330
Why is hospice and home health care such

3658
02:05:43,330 --> 02:05:44,290
a booming business right now?

3659
02:05:44,690 --> 02:05:46,810
I think it's become a trend of fraud.

3660
02:05:47,370 --> 02:05:50,390
Honestly, has like I heard about this about

3661
02:05:50,390 --> 02:05:52,650
five years ago during covid that people were

3662
02:05:52,650 --> 02:05:54,230
building hospices and selling them.

3663
02:05:54,290 --> 02:05:54,970
It was like a business.

3664
02:05:55,090 --> 02:05:56,270
These people made.

3665
02:05:57,010 --> 02:05:58,970
So it's an easy, I think, easy way

3666
02:05:58,970 --> 02:06:01,350
to build Medicare with their people's beneficiary numbers

3667
02:06:01,350 --> 02:06:04,970
that people can easily steal and even purchase

3668
02:06:04,970 --> 02:06:05,430
and buy.

3669
02:06:05,550 --> 02:06:07,270
They buy numbers from people and tell them,

3670
02:06:07,330 --> 02:06:10,210
give me your Medicare beneficiary number and I

3671
02:06:10,210 --> 02:06:11,290
will give you something in return.

3672
02:06:11,590 --> 02:06:12,190
And what does that mean?

3673
02:06:12,250 --> 02:06:13,350
Give you my beneficiary.

3674
02:06:13,350 --> 02:06:14,650
So there's an ID that you have.

3675
02:06:14,830 --> 02:06:17,110
Medicare gives you Medicare is for anybody 65

3676
02:06:17,110 --> 02:06:17,570
and over.

3677
02:06:17,870 --> 02:06:20,350
So they'll give you a Medicare ID number.

3678
02:06:20,750 --> 02:06:22,450
And that number is what's used to build

3679
02:06:22,450 --> 02:06:22,910
Medicare.

3680
02:06:23,330 --> 02:06:24,650
So essentially, if they can get a number

3681
02:06:24,650 --> 02:06:26,290
from somebody, it's almost like getting a credit

3682
02:06:26,290 --> 02:06:26,750
card number.

3683
02:06:26,870 --> 02:06:28,150
And then from there, they can continue to

3684
02:06:28,150 --> 02:06:29,710
bill and bill and bill and get that

3685
02:06:29,710 --> 02:06:30,250
Medicare money.

3686
02:06:30,370 --> 02:06:30,670
Exactly.

3687
02:06:30,730 --> 02:06:32,530
It's actually more beneficial than finding a credit

3688
02:06:32,530 --> 02:06:32,770
card.

3689
02:06:32,850 --> 02:06:35,270
These days, anybody can get a hospice license.

3690
02:06:35,270 --> 02:06:36,550
Actually, you don't need to be a physician.

3691
02:06:36,650 --> 02:06:37,830
You don't need to be a doctor.

3692
02:06:38,330 --> 02:06:40,270
You can apply and get a hospice license

3693
02:06:40,270 --> 02:06:41,190
in the state of California.

3694
02:06:41,930 --> 02:06:44,270
They bill, they take the Medicare numbers, they

3695
02:06:44,270 --> 02:06:46,130
bill Medicare, the Medicare sends them a check

3696
02:06:46,130 --> 02:06:46,530
right away.

3697
02:06:46,850 --> 02:06:48,130
It's an easy process.

3698
02:06:48,950 --> 02:06:51,170
And what kind of people are doing this

3699
02:06:51,170 --> 02:06:51,910
in California?

3700
02:06:52,170 --> 02:06:53,850
Regular old Californians?

3701
02:06:54,530 --> 02:06:56,750
Well, so far it's been identified as being

3702
02:06:56,750 --> 02:06:59,470
the Armenian mob and some other mobs.

3703
02:06:59,950 --> 02:07:02,310
But what's really interesting about all this.

3704
02:07:02,510 --> 02:07:03,810
So, you know, Nick Shirley is saying, oh,

3705
02:07:03,870 --> 02:07:04,890
I just discovered this.

3706
02:07:04,890 --> 02:07:06,750
Except California.

3707
02:07:07,230 --> 02:07:08,710
And I actually sent it to you for

3708
02:07:08,710 --> 02:07:09,370
the show notes.

3709
02:07:09,910 --> 02:07:14,530
California's own fraud investigation department, their auditing department,

3710
02:07:15,390 --> 02:07:18,610
found that the state's licensure and oversight of

3711
02:07:18,610 --> 02:07:23,830
hospice agencies in 2019 that Los Angeles County

3712
02:07:23,830 --> 02:07:26,630
has experienced a 1,500 percent increase in

3713
02:07:26,630 --> 02:07:29,050
its number of hospice agencies since 2010.

3714
02:07:29,050 --> 02:07:31,950
It had more than six and a half

3715
02:07:31,950 --> 02:07:34,910
times the nationwide average of hospice agencies relative

3716
02:07:34,910 --> 02:07:37,810
to its age population in 2019.

3717
02:07:38,770 --> 02:07:42,410
They found indicators of large scale fraud that

3718
02:07:42,410 --> 02:07:44,810
likely include fraudulent billing to Medicare and Medi

3719
02:07:44,810 --> 02:07:48,150
-Cal, including the apparent use of stolen identities

3720
02:07:48,150 --> 02:07:50,410
of medical personnel to obtain licenses.

3721
02:07:50,410 --> 02:07:54,690
So they they knew that in 2019, a

3722
02:07:54,690 --> 02:07:56,170
big report was done in 2020.

3723
02:07:56,790 --> 02:07:59,510
But meanwhile, we have Newsom, who said 10

3724
02:07:59,510 --> 02:08:01,570
months ago, part one.

3725
02:08:02,390 --> 02:08:03,770
So we're doge, but better.

3726
02:08:04,330 --> 02:08:09,090
And we've been doge, but better for literally

3727
02:08:09,090 --> 02:08:09,850
six years.

3728
02:08:10,230 --> 02:08:11,130
Doge, but better.

3729
02:08:11,370 --> 02:08:11,730
Yes.

3730
02:08:12,070 --> 02:08:13,790
Doge, but better.

3731
02:08:14,050 --> 02:08:16,330
And then he has more word salad on

3732
02:08:16,330 --> 02:08:16,870
part two.

3733
02:08:17,550 --> 02:08:19,590
You know, you can go back.

3734
02:08:19,590 --> 02:08:23,230
There's amazing that we still have the tapes

3735
02:08:23,230 --> 02:08:28,770
of our announcements around ODI and all of

3736
02:08:28,770 --> 02:08:31,470
these reforms and efficiencies that we've been advancing

3737
02:08:31,470 --> 02:08:32,810
for years and years and years.

3738
02:08:32,890 --> 02:08:35,030
It's just, again, difficult to sort of break

3739
02:08:35,030 --> 02:08:36,690
out of that.

3740
02:08:36,750 --> 02:08:38,290
You know, the attention challenge.

3741
02:08:38,790 --> 02:08:43,410
OK, so you've been watching Nick Shirley for

3742
02:08:43,410 --> 02:08:44,730
a while, I believe.

3743
02:08:45,230 --> 02:08:46,470
For two years, at least.

3744
02:08:46,470 --> 02:08:46,770
Yeah.

3745
02:08:47,850 --> 02:08:50,970
So I was first introduced to him with

3746
02:08:50,970 --> 02:08:53,350
the Minnesota Leering Center videos.

3747
02:08:53,530 --> 02:08:53,690
Yep.

3748
02:08:54,030 --> 02:08:54,210
Yep.

3749
02:08:54,310 --> 02:08:56,290
And he had this guy next to him,

3750
02:08:56,450 --> 02:08:56,850
Bob.

3751
02:08:57,390 --> 02:08:59,630
You know, Bob is never introduced to us.

3752
02:08:59,970 --> 02:09:01,450
Bob's got all the paperwork.

3753
02:09:01,730 --> 02:09:02,610
I think it was Dave.

3754
02:09:02,910 --> 02:09:03,130
Dave.

3755
02:09:03,130 --> 02:09:03,670
I think it was Dave.

3756
02:09:03,670 --> 02:09:04,810
Bob, Dave, Pete.

3757
02:09:05,050 --> 02:09:05,490
Same thing.

3758
02:09:05,570 --> 02:09:07,050
He's got all the information.

3759
02:09:07,970 --> 02:09:09,150
Is this the same?

3760
02:09:09,270 --> 02:09:12,930
Because I suspect that someone saw what Nick

3761
02:09:12,930 --> 02:09:14,670
Shirley was doing and went, this is a

3762
02:09:14,670 --> 02:09:18,090
great way to to show this fraud because

3763
02:09:18,090 --> 02:09:20,890
it never works when you get Pam Bondi

3764
02:09:20,890 --> 02:09:22,690
standing up there in front of the press.

3765
02:09:22,830 --> 02:09:23,950
And, you know, it doesn't work.

3766
02:09:23,990 --> 02:09:25,610
But this is a this is a stealth

3767
02:09:25,610 --> 02:09:27,850
way of getting people outraged.

3768
02:09:27,910 --> 02:09:29,890
Does he have another Dave, Bob or Pete

3769
02:09:29,890 --> 02:09:31,390
with him when he's out in California?

3770
02:09:31,390 --> 02:09:33,850
He has he during the video, he has

3771
02:09:33,850 --> 02:09:35,010
a couple of different people.

3772
02:09:35,210 --> 02:09:36,770
What I think is just emotional support.

3773
02:09:36,870 --> 02:09:38,670
He's got his I mean, some of the

3774
02:09:38,670 --> 02:09:42,210
situations he's getting himself into looks really scary

3775
02:09:42,210 --> 02:09:42,730
to me.

3776
02:09:43,450 --> 02:09:45,290
But this is all common knowledge.

3777
02:09:45,830 --> 02:09:47,210
I mean, this is like there is a

3778
02:09:47,210 --> 02:09:50,410
there is a government report from 2019 that

3779
02:09:50,410 --> 02:09:52,490
was published in 2020 that says, oh, yeah,

3780
02:09:52,490 --> 02:09:53,710
this is a huge problem.

3781
02:09:53,710 --> 02:09:58,370
There are other podcasters, video podcasters, whatever you

3782
02:09:58,370 --> 02:10:02,330
call them, YouTubers, YouTubers, YouTubers who've been putting

3783
02:10:02,330 --> 02:10:06,690
up information all along but couldn't get any

3784
02:10:06,690 --> 02:10:09,570
traction because, you know, it's he's got the

3785
02:10:09,570 --> 02:10:10,430
best platform.

3786
02:10:10,770 --> 02:10:10,870
Why?

3787
02:10:11,030 --> 02:10:11,650
But why?

3788
02:10:12,070 --> 02:10:12,290
Why?

3789
02:10:12,390 --> 02:10:12,990
Why did this?

3790
02:10:12,990 --> 02:10:16,310
I'm telling you that this there's someone on

3791
02:10:16,310 --> 02:10:19,710
the inside working with him, giving him stuff,

3792
02:10:19,830 --> 02:10:23,270
helping him, showing him juicing something.

3793
02:10:24,030 --> 02:10:25,890
Well, well, actually, somebody asked.

3794
02:10:26,110 --> 02:10:26,470
I wonder.

3795
02:10:26,570 --> 02:10:27,670
I think it's probably Trump.

3796
02:10:28,230 --> 02:10:29,110
I have a not you.

3797
02:10:29,170 --> 02:10:31,630
We Trump personally or just the administration.

3798
02:10:31,830 --> 02:10:33,210
Trump explains the money.

3799
02:10:33,810 --> 02:10:34,810
Oh, OK.

3800
02:10:35,070 --> 02:10:35,690
Here we go.

3801
02:10:35,750 --> 02:10:36,750
That's what I'm talking about.

3802
02:10:36,750 --> 02:10:40,170
You said during your statement that this type

3803
02:10:40,170 --> 02:10:42,390
of fraud, the corruption is the type of

3804
02:10:42,390 --> 02:10:44,370
thing that can shred the fabric of a

3805
02:10:44,370 --> 02:10:44,710
nation.

3806
02:10:45,190 --> 02:10:47,270
Why do you suppose that the leaders of

3807
02:10:47,270 --> 02:10:49,990
recent memory haven't looked at the systemic amount

3808
02:10:49,990 --> 02:10:51,310
of progress that took place?

3809
02:10:52,270 --> 02:10:53,390
And because they're crooked.

3810
02:10:53,790 --> 02:10:54,570
They make money.

3811
02:10:55,610 --> 02:10:56,770
They gain power.

3812
02:10:56,850 --> 02:10:57,850
They use it for power.

3813
02:10:58,430 --> 02:11:00,510
Like with the Somalians, they vote in a

3814
02:11:00,510 --> 02:11:00,870
block.

3815
02:11:00,870 --> 02:11:02,090
Hundred percent.

3816
02:11:02,410 --> 02:11:04,210
They make a deal with the Somalians.

3817
02:11:04,330 --> 02:11:06,390
They all vote because they're on a gravy

3818
02:11:06,390 --> 02:11:06,810
train.

3819
02:11:08,490 --> 02:11:09,890
It's it's company.

3820
02:11:10,090 --> 02:11:13,270
It's it's money first, power second.

3821
02:11:13,370 --> 02:11:14,650
A lot of people say power first.

3822
02:11:14,810 --> 02:11:16,110
Now it's money first.

3823
02:11:16,590 --> 02:11:18,450
Yeah, I'm telling you this.

3824
02:11:18,570 --> 02:11:22,190
This this Nick Shirley pop has Trump written

3825
02:11:22,190 --> 02:11:22,870
all over it.

3826
02:11:23,590 --> 02:11:24,650
Yes, absolutely.

3827
02:11:24,750 --> 02:11:25,270
It does.

3828
02:11:25,430 --> 02:11:26,730
And I think it's great.

3829
02:11:26,830 --> 02:11:27,810
He's got the audience.

3830
02:11:27,870 --> 02:11:28,870
He's got the eyes.

3831
02:11:28,870 --> 02:11:30,770
And he's such an unassuming little.

3832
02:11:31,070 --> 02:11:32,310
Oh, he's so sweet.

3833
02:11:32,390 --> 02:11:33,610
He's such a sweet boy.

3834
02:11:33,970 --> 02:11:34,270
Yes.

3835
02:11:34,390 --> 02:11:35,510
He's having a birthday next month.

3836
02:11:35,530 --> 02:11:36,910
I know he's finally going to be older.

3837
02:11:37,210 --> 02:11:37,990
Oh, wow.

3838
02:11:38,490 --> 02:11:39,910
Oh, was he going to be 12?

3839
02:11:40,210 --> 02:11:42,030
Yeah, I think 24.

3840
02:11:42,530 --> 02:11:44,050
I think it's a dynamite.

3841
02:11:44,090 --> 02:11:44,930
This is the future.

3842
02:11:45,050 --> 02:11:47,690
It's a dynamite way to expose fraud through

3843
02:11:47,690 --> 02:11:50,250
a YouTuber who's out there with the with

3844
02:11:50,250 --> 02:11:51,270
the one camera.

3845
02:11:51,490 --> 02:11:52,930
You know, actually, I think he has to.

3846
02:11:53,010 --> 02:11:54,270
I've seen him with two shots.

3847
02:11:54,370 --> 02:11:54,810
Sometimes two.

3848
02:11:54,970 --> 02:11:55,870
Yeah, it's great.

3849
02:11:55,930 --> 02:11:57,050
It's a great way to do it.

3850
02:11:57,070 --> 02:11:58,210
And man, it is rampant.

3851
02:11:58,210 --> 02:12:00,430
And yes, it's hundreds of billions of dollars,

3852
02:12:00,990 --> 02:12:02,970
maybe maybe a trillion a year.

3853
02:12:03,030 --> 02:12:03,690
Who knows?

3854
02:12:04,070 --> 02:12:07,830
Which explains which explains why the billionaire's tax

3855
02:12:07,830 --> 02:12:10,350
is such a big deal to California, which

3856
02:12:10,350 --> 02:12:12,030
if you want, you can certainly play that

3857
02:12:12,030 --> 02:12:15,310
billionaire tax explanation because it's it's pretty much

3858
02:12:15,310 --> 02:12:18,090
how much we're losing in Medicare fraud.

3859
02:12:18,510 --> 02:12:21,330
Taxes for health care or would it backfire?

3860
02:12:21,670 --> 02:12:24,190
That's the debate behind a proposed wealth tax

3861
02:12:24,190 --> 02:12:25,990
that could be on the California ballot this

3862
02:12:25,990 --> 02:12:26,350
November.

3863
02:12:26,850 --> 02:12:30,210
Supporters have to collect about 875,000 signatures

3864
02:12:30,210 --> 02:12:31,870
by mid-April just to get it on

3865
02:12:31,870 --> 02:12:32,190
the ballot.

3866
02:12:32,750 --> 02:12:34,210
But it's already caused a ton of grief

3867
02:12:34,210 --> 02:12:36,750
among big names in tech and finance, and

3868
02:12:36,750 --> 02:12:37,690
they're not the only ones.

3869
02:12:38,030 --> 02:12:39,970
Even Governor Gavin Newsom has come out against

3870
02:12:39,970 --> 02:12:41,810
it, saying it would hurt the state's finances

3871
02:12:41,810 --> 02:12:42,550
in the long run.

3872
02:12:42,730 --> 02:12:46,690
It's a badly drafted effort.

3873
02:12:47,490 --> 02:12:50,190
It's already had an outsized impact on the

3874
02:12:50,190 --> 02:12:50,530
state.

3875
02:12:50,950 --> 02:12:52,610
To get a full understanding, let's let's back

3876
02:12:52,610 --> 02:12:53,350
up to step one.

3877
02:12:54,050 --> 02:12:55,550
How would the tax actually work?

3878
02:12:55,550 --> 02:12:56,270
Could it work?

3879
02:12:57,170 --> 02:12:59,270
Well, it's a one-time tax of 5

3880
02:12:59,270 --> 02:13:00,030
% of wealth.

3881
02:13:00,410 --> 02:13:02,730
Individuals or couples worth more than $1 billion

3882
02:13:02,730 --> 02:13:04,950
as of the end of this year would

3883
02:13:04,950 --> 02:13:05,630
have to pay it.

3884
02:13:05,750 --> 02:13:08,190
That's about 200 people in the entire state.

3885
02:13:08,570 --> 02:13:10,030
If you're a billionaire and you live here,

3886
02:13:10,190 --> 02:13:12,030
you'd be subject to the proposed tax.

3887
02:13:12,170 --> 02:13:16,070
It covers stocks, cash, businesses, just about everything.

3888
02:13:16,730 --> 02:13:18,890
What it doesn't cover is real estate, and

3889
02:13:18,890 --> 02:13:21,610
you could exempt up to $5 million of

3890
02:13:21,610 --> 02:13:24,670
personal property like art or a private jet.

3891
02:13:24,670 --> 02:13:27,030
90% of the tax would help cover

3892
02:13:27,030 --> 02:13:28,510
federal cuts to healthcare.

3893
02:13:28,910 --> 02:13:31,510
The other 10% would help fund education

3894
02:13:31,510 --> 02:13:32,550
and food assistance.

3895
02:13:33,270 --> 02:13:35,270
Unsurprisingly, a lot of people in the tech

3896
02:13:35,270 --> 02:13:36,790
industry do not like this one bit.

3897
02:13:37,090 --> 02:13:38,310
One of their biggest claims is that it

3898
02:13:38,310 --> 02:13:40,390
would cause the wealthy to move to Nevada

3899
02:13:40,390 --> 02:13:41,890
or Texas or Florida.

3900
02:13:42,490 --> 02:13:43,810
Here's the problem if that happens.

3901
02:13:44,330 --> 02:13:46,770
According to state data, more than 40%

3902
02:13:46,770 --> 02:13:49,450
of California's income tax comes from the top

3903
02:13:49,450 --> 02:13:51,390
1% of income earners.

3904
02:13:51,390 --> 02:13:54,870
So, if lots of the state's rich residents

3905
02:13:54,870 --> 02:13:58,390
did leave, California's bank account would get smaller.

3906
02:13:58,870 --> 02:13:59,950
Would they actually leave?

3907
02:13:59,970 --> 02:14:01,170
It's hard to say.

3908
02:14:01,590 --> 02:14:03,830
There's some research that indicates that rich people

3909
02:14:03,830 --> 02:14:06,010
actually rarely move in response to new taxes,

3910
02:14:06,530 --> 02:14:09,230
and that's because they tend to depend pretty

3911
02:14:09,230 --> 02:14:13,010
heavily on social and professional ties to, say,

3912
02:14:13,110 --> 02:14:13,710
Silicon Valley.

3913
02:14:14,210 --> 02:14:15,850
But also, we've never had a wealth tax

3914
02:14:15,850 --> 02:14:16,490
like this before.

3915
02:14:17,050 --> 02:14:19,170
Most of the European countries that have tried

3916
02:14:19,170 --> 02:14:20,470
it eventually got rid of it.

3917
02:14:21,530 --> 02:14:23,310
I gotta show you how to use Adobe

3918
02:14:23,310 --> 02:14:25,010
to remove that horrible music.

3919
02:14:25,170 --> 02:14:25,410
I know.

3920
02:14:25,570 --> 02:14:26,390
I'm sorry.

3921
02:14:26,570 --> 02:14:27,310
No, no, it's okay.

3922
02:14:27,410 --> 02:14:28,130
It's just like, ugh.

3923
02:14:29,970 --> 02:14:30,410
Interesting.

3924
02:14:30,650 --> 02:14:31,530
I think they would move.

3925
02:14:31,830 --> 02:14:32,550
I think that...

3926
02:14:32,550 --> 02:14:33,030
I do too.

3927
02:14:33,150 --> 02:14:34,870
I mean, they're already...

3928
02:14:34,870 --> 02:14:37,650
But oddly enough, we only need this tax

3929
02:14:37,650 --> 02:14:38,970
because of so much fraud.

3930
02:14:39,250 --> 02:14:40,750
The money's just flowing out.

3931
02:14:40,890 --> 02:14:41,170
Yes.

3932
02:14:41,230 --> 02:14:43,830
Next time someone complains about the $3.8

3933
02:14:43,830 --> 02:14:45,830
billion we give to Israel that they spend

3934
02:14:45,830 --> 02:14:49,150
on our war stuff, remind them of this.

3935
02:14:49,850 --> 02:14:50,130
Yeah.

3936
02:14:50,410 --> 02:14:51,670
In every state.

3937
02:14:51,770 --> 02:14:53,210
Every state this exists.

3938
02:14:53,910 --> 02:14:54,670
That's the problem.

3939
02:14:54,830 --> 02:14:55,790
Or every blue state.

3940
02:14:55,890 --> 02:14:57,830
What is the total Medicare...

3941
02:14:58,510 --> 02:15:03,010
I mean, what does the federal government pay

3942
02:15:03,010 --> 02:15:04,970
annually in...

3943
02:15:04,970 --> 02:15:05,530
Let me see.

3944
02:15:06,290 --> 02:15:07,550
Let me ask the robot.

3945
02:15:07,810 --> 02:15:13,990
What is the annual federal expenditure...

3946
02:15:13,990 --> 02:15:15,090
I'm going to use some big words.

3947
02:15:16,890 --> 02:15:21,010
Expenditure for health care from the...

3948
02:15:21,730 --> 02:15:22,030
Okay.

3949
02:15:22,350 --> 02:15:23,230
For health care.

3950
02:15:23,390 --> 02:15:23,570
Boom.

3951
02:15:23,750 --> 02:15:24,030
All right.

3952
02:15:24,050 --> 02:15:24,470
Let's see.

3953
02:15:25,430 --> 02:15:26,190
All right, robot.

3954
02:15:26,450 --> 02:15:28,090
I put it in thinking mode, so it'll

3955
02:15:28,090 --> 02:15:28,650
take a second.

3956
02:15:29,170 --> 02:15:30,310
I think real hard.

3957
02:15:30,710 --> 02:15:33,010
I like who's pushing this tax the most

3958
02:15:33,010 --> 02:15:34,010
is Bernie Sanders.

3959
02:15:34,430 --> 02:15:35,070
Oh, my God.

3960
02:15:35,090 --> 02:15:35,610
He's everywhere.

3961
02:15:35,890 --> 02:15:36,550
Well, of course.

3962
02:15:36,950 --> 02:15:37,710
But what...

3963
02:15:37,710 --> 02:15:38,450
Here it is.

3964
02:15:39,870 --> 02:15:40,510
Oh, man.

3965
02:15:40,510 --> 02:15:45,270
The most recent completed fiscal year, 2025, the

3966
02:15:45,270 --> 02:15:47,730
US federal government spent approximately...

3967
02:15:47,730 --> 02:15:48,470
How much do you think?

3968
02:15:49,490 --> 02:15:50,090
Trillions.

3969
02:15:50,390 --> 02:15:52,390
$2.03 trillion.

3970
02:15:54,290 --> 02:15:57,170
That's more than a quarter of the total

3971
02:15:57,170 --> 02:15:57,630
budget.

3972
02:15:58,850 --> 02:16:00,810
Now, that can't all be fraud.

3973
02:16:01,570 --> 02:16:04,730
No, but if a hefty portion of it

3974
02:16:04,730 --> 02:16:05,350
is...

3975
02:16:05,350 --> 02:16:07,050
Yeah, we can buy some more bombs for

3976
02:16:07,050 --> 02:16:07,490
Iran.

3977
02:16:07,630 --> 02:16:08,130
It's great.

3978
02:16:08,270 --> 02:16:08,870
There you go.

3979
02:16:08,870 --> 02:16:10,090
Yeah, let's bomb them.

3980
02:16:10,170 --> 02:16:10,610
Hey, everybody.

3981
02:16:23,810 --> 02:16:24,490
That's right.

3982
02:16:24,570 --> 02:16:27,550
We thanked our executive and associate executive producers

3983
02:16:27,550 --> 02:16:28,030
earlier.

3984
02:16:28,250 --> 02:16:30,330
Now, we are going to thank everybody who

3985
02:16:30,330 --> 02:16:32,670
supported the show, $50 or above.

3986
02:16:32,750 --> 02:16:34,129
And I think we also have some notes

3987
02:16:34,129 --> 02:16:35,930
to read, so let me get the spreadsheet.

3988
02:16:36,250 --> 02:16:37,549
And away we go.

3989
02:16:39,790 --> 02:16:41,850
Ashley Ostgen, I think it is.

3990
02:16:42,049 --> 02:16:42,650
Ostgen?

3991
02:16:43,010 --> 02:16:43,350
Sounds right.

3992
02:16:44,410 --> 02:16:45,930
From Flower Mound, Texas.

3993
02:16:46,150 --> 02:16:49,870
$188.33. Give John a reason to live

3994
02:16:49,870 --> 02:16:50,690
eights in there.

3995
02:16:51,430 --> 02:16:57,190
Christy Jensen, $153.96. Oh, it's $146.19.

3996
02:16:57,610 --> 02:16:58,750
Good job, Mimi.

3997
02:16:58,990 --> 02:17:02,230
$80.08 plus $66.11 for the ladies.

3998
02:17:02,410 --> 02:17:04,590
Yes, dangling balls and double dicks in case

3999
02:17:04,590 --> 02:17:05,030
you forgot.

4000
02:17:05,030 --> 02:17:08,070
And the crappy PayPal fees.

4001
02:17:08,309 --> 02:17:08,709
ITM.

4002
02:17:08,830 --> 02:17:09,549
Christy, Christy.

4003
02:17:09,650 --> 02:17:10,350
All right, Christy.

4004
02:17:10,709 --> 02:17:13,010
Ladies taking over with your donation amounts.

4005
02:17:13,110 --> 02:17:13,530
Love that.

4006
02:17:15,270 --> 02:17:17,450
Dame Mary Moon and Sir Jew Claw.

4007
02:17:17,850 --> 02:17:20,290
And they sent in a get well card

4008
02:17:20,290 --> 02:17:21,530
for John with $150.

4009
02:17:22,230 --> 02:17:23,950
John, we're wishing you a speedy and easy

4010
02:17:23,950 --> 02:17:25,670
recovery from South Louisiana.

4011
02:17:26,049 --> 02:17:27,990
Plus, this donation is a birthday call out

4012
02:17:27,990 --> 02:17:29,070
for my smoking hot hubby.

4013
02:17:29,549 --> 02:17:31,330
He celebrated on March 14th.

4014
02:17:31,570 --> 02:17:33,629
Dame Mary Moon and Sir Jew Claw.

4015
02:17:33,629 --> 02:17:35,770
I wonder what the Sir Jew Claw is

4016
02:17:35,770 --> 02:17:36,290
all about.

4017
02:17:37,129 --> 02:17:38,049
I don't know.

4018
02:17:38,150 --> 02:17:39,270
What is a Jew Claw?

4019
02:17:39,510 --> 02:17:40,309
I don't know.

4020
02:17:40,510 --> 02:17:41,250
Sir Led.

4021
02:17:41,490 --> 02:17:42,030
Sir Led.

4022
02:17:42,110 --> 02:17:45,830
$130.03. That's $123.45 plus fees.

4023
02:17:46,129 --> 02:17:47,330
$123.45 plus fees.

4024
02:17:47,410 --> 02:17:47,750
Got it.

02:17:48,190 --> 02:17:49,790
Nathan Cochran from Mercy Me.

4026
02:17:50,090 --> 02:17:51,209
Go check out their movie.

4027
02:17:52,030 --> 02:17:53,490
I can only imagine two.

4028
02:17:54,049 --> 02:17:55,230
Now in theaters, I think.

4029
02:17:55,590 --> 02:17:56,510
Or streaming soon.

4030
02:17:56,610 --> 02:17:58,570
$123.45. He's a knight.

4031
02:17:59,350 --> 02:18:01,650
Sir Schwartz from Denmark.

4032
02:18:01,809 --> 02:18:02,270
Langa.

4033
02:18:02,450 --> 02:18:02,809
I think.

4034
02:18:02,809 --> 02:18:03,230
Langa.

4035
02:18:03,350 --> 02:18:03,850
Well done, Mimi.

4036
02:18:03,969 --> 02:18:05,469
Stepping up and handling John at the same

4037
02:18:05,469 --> 02:18:05,990
time.

4038
02:18:06,230 --> 02:18:06,450
Yes.

4039
02:18:06,809 --> 02:18:07,770
Health karma for John.

4040
02:18:07,809 --> 02:18:08,430
We'll do it at the end.

4041
02:18:09,030 --> 02:18:10,830
And get up onto the pod machine.

4042
02:18:10,950 --> 02:18:13,290
That is Sir Schwartz of the woke bashing

4043
02:18:13,290 --> 02:18:13,850
culprits.

4044
02:18:14,150 --> 02:18:15,270
Baron of Jutland.

4045
02:18:15,969 --> 02:18:17,410
GMO Little Mermaid.

4046
02:18:17,830 --> 02:18:18,110
All right.

4047
02:18:18,770 --> 02:18:22,770
Sir Radical from Muskegon, Michigan.

4048
02:18:23,629 --> 02:18:24,330
Hoping $100.

4049
02:18:24,629 --> 02:18:26,049
Hoping for a speedy recovery, John.

4050
02:18:26,170 --> 02:18:27,030
Sir Radical.

4051
02:18:27,170 --> 02:18:28,510

4054
02:18:30,870 --> 02:18:32,150
Been listening for 10 plus years.

4055
02:18:32,250 --> 02:18:33,850
Wouldn't be who I am without the show.

4056
02:18:33,950 --> 02:18:35,510
John, please get well soon.

4057
02:18:35,809 --> 02:18:38,389
Then we have Baronetess Denise.

4058
02:18:39,230 --> 02:18:41,190
And she sent in a note with nice

4059
02:18:41,190 --> 02:18:41,709
handwriting.

4060
02:18:43,110 --> 02:18:43,990
John, $100.

4061
02:18:44,330 --> 02:18:45,930
Prayers for you and your family during this

4062
02:18:45,930 --> 02:18:46,469
tough time.

4063
02:18:46,670 --> 02:18:46,830
Get well.

4064
02:18:46,870 --> 02:18:47,430
Tough time.

4065
02:18:47,510 --> 02:18:48,330
He's had it easy.

4066
02:18:48,790 --> 02:18:49,209
You heard him.

4067
02:18:49,730 --> 02:18:50,230
Get well soon.

4068
02:18:50,230 --> 02:18:51,030
I had a tough time.

4069
02:18:51,150 --> 02:18:51,950
Yes, with me.

4070
02:18:52,670 --> 02:18:53,590
Get well soon.

4071
02:18:53,690 --> 02:18:54,709
We love you and miss you.

4072
02:18:54,770 --> 02:18:56,129
Although Mimi is doing great.

4073
02:18:56,230 --> 02:18:57,969
Adam, good job at holding down the fort.

4074
02:18:58,090 --> 02:18:58,530
Blessings.

Queen of the Cobalt Programmers.

4077
02:19:02,870 --> 02:19:03,129
Wow.

4078
02:19:03,490 --> 02:19:05,870
And then Old Guy in Minnesota Nuts.

4079
02:19:06,209 --> 02:19:07,070
Sends $100.

4080
02:19:07,490 --> 02:19:09,129
And he has a note here as well.

4081
02:19:09,330 --> 02:19:11,889
And also nice handwriting, but slanted to the

4082
02:19:11,889 --> 02:19:12,090
left.

4083
02:19:12,250 --> 02:19:13,930
John, get better.

4084
02:19:14,030 --> 02:19:14,590
I miss you.

4085
02:19:14,750 --> 02:19:15,950
You are lucky.

4086
02:19:16,190 --> 02:19:18,230
Sounds like you have a wonderful family.

4087
02:19:21,350 --> 02:19:23,770
Old Guy in Minnesota Nuts.

4088
02:19:23,889 --> 02:19:24,990
That's what it says, yes.

02:19:27,090 --> 02:19:28,510
These are the 8888s.

Still coming in.

4092
02:19:29,190 --> 02:19:29,490
Beautiful.

4093
02:19:31,010 --> 02:19:32,230
John, hell of a way to get some

4094
02:19:32,230 --> 02:19:33,230

Adam and Mimi, can I get a de

02:19:38,809 --> 02:19:40,290
-douching please as my first donation?

4099
02:19:41,930 --> 02:19:43,530
You've been de-douched.

4100
02:19:43,750 --> 02:19:45,350
Wishing JCD a speedy recovery.

4101
02:19:45,549 --> 02:19:47,790
I woke up three times besides.

4102
02:19:48,750 --> 02:19:49,910
Up to threes.

4103
02:19:50,630 --> 02:19:53,510
Oh, I woke up to threes beside.

4104
02:19:54,790 --> 02:19:55,690
Bedside, probably.

4105
02:19:55,890 --> 02:19:56,390
I think so.

4106
02:19:56,490 --> 02:19:57,310
And decided to donate.

4107
02:19:57,310 --> 02:19:59,610
Yes, I'll keep it short.

02:19:59,750 --> 02:20:00,710

Wishing myself a belated happy birthday.

Sunday the 15th.

4113
02:20:07,730 --> 02:20:09,370
Forgot to donate in time due to working

4114
02:20:09,370 --> 02:20:09,990

02:20:21,330 --> 02:20:22,330
Good luck with that.

MS?

4130
02:20:34,750 --> 02:20:35,490
MS, Mississippi.

4131
02:20:36,150 --> 02:20:37,410

Randy Darrow, Burke, Virginia.

4133
02:20:39,510 --> 02:20:40,470
I don't always donate.

4134
02:20:40,590 --> 02:20:42,290
But when I do, I prefer no agenda

4135
02:20:42,290 --> 02:20:42,910
with John.

4136
02:20:43,170 --> 02:20:44,510
Stay cranking, my friend.

John, glad you went in for the old

4140
02:20:49,950 --> 02:20:50,310
change.

4141
02:20:50,370 --> 02:20:51,790
Was able to get the valve job too.

be in the middle of an interview with

an IT help desk job.

02:21:05,290 --> 02:21:07,050
I want some jobs, karma, and health karma

02:21:24,150 --> 02:21:24,930
I'm sure you don't either.

4163
02:21:24,930 --> 02:21:25,950
But please come back.

4164
02:21:26,370 --> 02:21:27,970
Mimi, please, please, please come do a show

4165
02:21:27,970 --> 02:21:28,490
once in a while.

4166
02:21:28,590 --> 02:21:29,130
You're a natural.

4167
02:21:29,250 --> 02:21:32,290
Have great life stories we all enjoy about

4168
02:21:32,290 --> 02:21:33,030
Jim Morrison.

4169
02:21:33,810 --> 02:21:35,090

Big heart.

4192
02:22:15,230 --> 02:22:16,130
Okay, there we go.

4193

There he is with the 8008 with the

He is the Archduke of Luna and lover

4197
02:22:22,130 --> 02:22:23,270

I think this is because of you, Mimi.

4223
02:22:59,530 --> 02:23:00,770
We got all these boob donations.

4224
02:23:01,350 --> 02:23:01,870

You've been absolutely spooktacular.

4228
02:23:07,190 --> 02:23:08,950
Wishing your asset a speedy recovery.

4229
02:23:09,170 --> 02:23:09,990
Handle him with care.

4230
02:23:10,110 --> 02:23:10,830
Okay, that's enough.

4231
02:23:10,910 --> 02:23:11,650

That's Baron Craig.

4235
02:23:18,950 --> 02:23:19,310
Greg.

4236
02:23:19,410 --> 02:23:20,830
I think it's Greg Walton, not Craig.

4237
02:23:21,270 --> 02:23:22,470
There's something got misspelled.

4238
02:23:22,570 --> 02:23:24,390
Here's Greg Walton, I think.

4239
02:23:24,570 --> 02:23:24,750
Okay.

4240
02:23:24,890 --> 02:23:25,690
I feel bad now.

4241
02:23:26,050 --> 02:23:27,450
How about just C.

4242
02:23:27,590 --> 02:23:27,990
Walton?

4243
02:23:28,270 --> 02:23:28,690
How about that?

4244
02:23:28,730 --> 02:23:30,310
No, but I know him and I feel

4245
02:23:30,310 --> 02:23:30,810
bad now.

4246
02:23:30,890 --> 02:23:31,870
Now I'm confused.

02:23:38,170 --> 02:23:38,510
few weeks.

4252
02:23:38,590 --> 02:23:39,350
I'm impressed with her.

4253
02:23:39,850 --> 02:23:41,430
Loved her stories about early life in Iran.

4254
02:23:41,570 --> 02:23:43,650
I can't tell you, Mrs. Buzzkill, as you

4255
02:23:43,650 --> 02:23:45,270
are definitely not a buzzkill.

4256
02:23:45,450 --> 02:23:45,930

4260
02:23:53,010 --> 02:23:55,170
I would listen to Mimi read names from

4261
02:23:55,170 --> 02:23:56,090
the phone book.

4262
02:23:56,270 --> 02:23:56,810
All right.

4263
02:23:57,030 --> 02:23:57,530

Donated for Mimi.

4269
02:24:06,230 --> 02:24:07,490
Hashtag too many eggs.

4270
02:24:07,710 --> 02:24:08,250
All right.

02:24:39,010 --> 02:24:39,350

4288
02:24:39,510 --> 02:24:40,010
Coincidence?

4289
02:24:40,150 --> 02:24:41,190
I think not.

4290
02:24:42,230 --> 02:24:44,530

Steinlein.

4301
02:24:59,890 --> 02:25:00,190

02:26:18,830 --> 02:26:20,810
Jason Maurer, Vancouver, Washington.

4344
02:26:20,950 --> 02:26:22,870
And that's the last one as we wind

4345
02:26:22,870 --> 02:26:27,230
up our $50 donors for episode 1852.

4346
02:26:27,470 --> 02:26:28,310
Thank you all so much.

4347
02:26:28,390 --> 02:26:30,250
This has been just lovely to see all

4348
02:26:30,250 --> 02:26:31,950
the support and all the get well cards.

4349
02:26:32,350 --> 02:26:35,450
They will all be piled onto John's bed,

4350
02:26:35,570 --> 02:26:37,630
if not already done so, I think.

4351
02:26:37,630 --> 02:26:41,270
Okay, so we've got some F karma, jobs

4352
02:26:41,270 --> 02:26:42,770
karma, regular karma.

4353
02:26:42,970 --> 02:26:43,390
Here we go.

4354
02:26:43,490 --> 02:26:46,850
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

4355
02:26:47,050 --> 02:26:48,510
Let's vote for jobs.

4356
02:26:53,110 --> 02:26:54,610
You've got karma.

4357
02:26:55,210 --> 02:26:55,990
There it is.

4358
02:26:56,490 --> 02:26:58,090
Thank you all for supporting the No Agenda

4359
02:26:58,090 --> 02:26:58,490

I think there's USDC is available, and PayPal.

4369
02:27:21,450 --> 02:27:23,550
All up to you, and it is all

4370
02:27:23,550 --> 02:27:24,030

4371
02:27:24,510 --> 02:27:25,570
Noagendadonations.com.

4372
02:27:26,470 --> 02:27:28,670
It's your birthday party.

4373
02:27:29,950 --> 02:27:31,450
On No Agenda.

4374
02:27:31,450 --> 02:27:32,530
And we do have a list today.

4375
02:27:32,630 --> 02:27:33,030
Short one.

4376
02:27:33,190 --> 02:27:35,870
Mom, Dad, and Jacqueline say happy birthday to

4377
02:27:35,870 --> 02:27:38,530
Ivan David Myers, celebrated on the 11th.

4378
02:27:38,530 --> 02:27:41,770
Spencer Shelfwood, celebrated on the 15th.

4379
02:27:41,910 --> 02:27:44,390
And as you just heard, Courtney Thomas Ian

4380
02:27:44,390 --> 02:27:47,370
and Samuel Burke wish Theo Kotick a happy

4381
02:27:47,370 --> 02:27:47,750
birthday.

4382
02:27:47,910 --> 02:27:49,770
He turns 34 on March 21st.

4383
02:27:50,230 --> 02:27:52,310
Happy birthday from everybody here at the best

4384
02:27:52,310 --> 02:27:53,750
podcast in the universe.

4385
02:27:54,510 --> 02:27:55,830
It's your birthday, Ian.

4386
02:27:56,130 --> 02:27:58,170
And we do have, let's see, we have

4387
02:27:58,170 --> 02:28:00,050
a night, which will be taken care of

4388
02:28:00,050 --> 02:28:00,610
on Thursday.

4389
02:28:00,750 --> 02:28:01,610
A layaway night.

4390
02:28:01,750 --> 02:28:02,690
That is Steven Newman.

4391
02:28:02,690 --> 02:28:05,090
And he says, hello, peerage committee with my

4392
02:28:05,090 --> 02:28:07,810
8888 donation last week and an extra one

4393
02:28:07,810 --> 02:28:08,930
time 50 last year.

4394
02:28:09,010 --> 02:28:10,970
I have achieved knighthood with a recurring donation

4395
02:28:10,970 --> 02:28:13,150
of $4 per week since late October of

4396
02:28:13,150 --> 02:28:13,870
2021.

4397
02:28:14,450 --> 02:28:16,350
Slow and steady may not win the race,

4398
02:28:16,450 --> 02:28:17,870
but it gets you there in the end.

4399
02:28:18,230 --> 02:28:19,430
I would like my night name to be

4400
02:28:19,430 --> 02:28:21,010
Sir Vagabond of the Middle Midwest.

4401
02:28:21,350 --> 02:28:22,770
At the roundtable, I would like to request

4402
02:28:22,770 --> 02:28:24,550
fava beans and a nice Chianti.

4403
02:28:25,310 --> 02:28:29,210
And we will order that for the big

4404
02:28:29,210 --> 02:28:31,950
knighting ceremony, which we've just determined could be

4405
02:28:31,950 --> 02:28:33,990
coming up on Thursday.

4406
02:28:34,350 --> 02:28:36,150
And thank you all so much for supporting

4407
02:28:36,150 --> 02:28:37,630
us here at the No Agenda show.

4408
02:28:38,310 --> 02:28:41,730
No Agenda meetups!

4409
02:28:43,230 --> 02:28:45,910
Yeah, we got some meetups.

4410
02:28:46,070 --> 02:28:48,510
They're always taking place all over the world.

4411
02:28:48,630 --> 02:28:51,070
And today there is indeed one coming up

4412
02:28:51,070 --> 02:28:53,010
at 5 o'clock Pacific time because it

4413
02:28:53,010 --> 02:28:53,930
will be in Idaho.

4414
02:28:53,930 --> 02:28:58,950
It is the NISB Get John back into

4415
02:28:58,950 --> 02:28:59,750
the house meetup.

4416
02:29:00,110 --> 02:29:01,970
And that'll be at Trail Ends Brewery and

4417
02:29:01,970 --> 02:29:04,150
Brick Oven Pizza, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

4418
02:29:04,590 --> 02:29:05,350
Sir Scott the Jew.

4419
02:29:05,470 --> 02:29:10,290
He always sends in fun little meetup reports.

4420
02:29:10,410 --> 02:29:10,810
We love them.

4421
02:29:10,890 --> 02:29:11,910
None of them today, actually.

4422
02:29:12,610 --> 02:29:15,310
Also today, the 5th anniversary Charlotte's Thirsty Third

4423
02:29:15,310 --> 02:29:16,850
Thursday monthly meetup.

4424
02:29:16,950 --> 02:29:18,230
That'll be at 7 o'clock at Ed's

4425
02:29:18,230 --> 02:29:20,130
Tavern in Charlotte, North Carolina, Saturday.

4426
02:29:20,130 --> 02:29:22,390
The Naha pop-up.

4427
02:29:22,650 --> 02:29:26,130
And that is going to be in Okinawa,

4428
02:29:26,270 --> 02:29:28,250
Japan at the Naha Bus Terminal.

4429
02:29:28,670 --> 02:29:29,850
I'm sure it's nice.

4430
02:29:30,490 --> 02:29:32,190
Actually, I'm sure it is nice.

4431
02:29:32,950 --> 02:29:35,090
Sir Hank Itami is hosting that.

4432
02:29:35,250 --> 02:29:38,590
And we are expecting a meetup report from

4433
02:29:38,590 --> 02:29:41,190
the Naha Bus Terminal in Okinawa, Japan.

4434
02:29:41,350 --> 02:29:42,750
I told you we're all over the world.

4435
02:29:43,310 --> 02:29:45,530
Los Angeles on Wilshire Boulevard.

4436
02:29:45,590 --> 02:29:46,830
This time HMS Bounty.

4437
02:29:47,150 --> 02:29:48,550
That is the flight of the No Agenda.

4438
02:29:48,550 --> 02:29:49,090
And No.

4439
02:29:49,550 --> 02:29:52,030
73 Leo Bravo hosting that on Saturday.

4440
02:29:52,510 --> 02:29:53,910
And springtime is here.

4441
02:29:54,070 --> 02:29:58,090
Meetup will be at Puckett's Restaurant in Franklin,

4442
02:29:58,230 --> 02:29:58,590
Tennessee.

4443
02:29:59,010 --> 02:29:59,830
It's right by Nashville.

4444
02:29:59,990 --> 02:30:00,810
It's really nice.

4445
02:30:00,970 --> 02:30:02,310
Franklin's where all the celebrities live.

4446
02:30:02,370 --> 02:30:04,470
That'll be on Saturday at 6 o'clock.

4447
02:30:04,590 --> 02:30:05,670
Make sure you catch that one.

4448
02:30:06,010 --> 02:30:06,190
Yes?

4449
02:30:07,470 --> 02:30:08,530
Did you say something?

4450
02:30:10,090 --> 02:30:10,490
Yeah.

4451
02:30:10,810 --> 02:30:12,070
Oh, I thought you said something.

4452
02:30:12,110 --> 02:30:13,130
No, I'm hearing more.

4453
02:30:13,710 --> 02:30:15,110
There's more solar flares.

4454
02:30:15,250 --> 02:30:16,150
We're hearing more bings.

4455
02:30:16,590 --> 02:30:17,010
It's fine.

4456
02:30:17,010 --> 02:30:20,150
Are you joshing me or are there real

4457
02:30:20,150 --> 02:30:21,230
solar flares?

4458
02:30:21,590 --> 02:30:21,890
Interesting.

4459
02:30:22,070 --> 02:30:24,470
I'm far enough north that sometimes we get

4460
02:30:24,470 --> 02:30:26,850
them and it screws up our internet and

4461
02:30:26,850 --> 02:30:27,470
our cell phones.

4462
02:30:27,710 --> 02:30:28,610
Oh, interesting.

4463
02:30:29,670 --> 02:30:31,470
I'm glad this is the last time we're

4464
02:30:31,470 --> 02:30:31,990
doing this.

4465
02:30:32,650 --> 02:30:33,330
It's so annoying.

4466
02:30:33,770 --> 02:30:36,390
Hey, finally on Sunday we have the No

4467
02:30:36,390 --> 02:30:39,250
ID pop-up meetup for 32 Pacific.

4468
02:30:39,470 --> 02:30:40,010
Don't be late.

4469
02:30:40,170 --> 02:30:42,030
Don't be early at the Alibi Room.

4470
02:30:42,450 --> 02:30:43,410
And that is in Vancouver.

4471
02:30:43,550 --> 02:30:45,410
That's British Columbia in Canada.

4472
02:30:45,570 --> 02:30:46,610
So make sure you catch that.

4473
02:30:46,610 --> 02:30:48,610
More coming up this month on the 28th.

4474

4476
02:30:56,790 --> 02:30:58,070
Another Japanese meetup.

4477
02:30:58,190 --> 02:30:59,010
Hello, Japan.

4478
02:30:59,850 --> 02:31:01,250
More meetup reports requested.

4479
02:31:01,690 --> 02:31:03,650
In April on the 2nd, Raleigh, North Carolina,

4480
02:31:03,770 --> 02:31:04,310
Osaka.

4481
02:31:04,690 --> 02:31:06,010
Japan is on fire.

4482
02:31:06,590 --> 02:31:07,230
This is great.

4483
02:31:08,170 --> 02:31:09,130
That's on the 4th.

4484
02:31:09,270 --> 02:31:11,770
The 11th, Eagle, Idaho, Albany, California.

4485
02:31:11,930 --> 02:31:12,690
John might attend.

4486
02:31:12,790 --> 02:31:14,770
Lafayette, Louisiana, and Fredericksburg, Texas.

4487
02:31:14,830 --> 02:31:15,810
I will definitely be there.

4488
02:31:15,810 --> 02:31:16,970
Please come.

4489
02:31:17,090 --> 02:31:18,890
If you're in Austin or San Antonio or

4490
02:31:18,890 --> 02:31:20,610
wherever you're from, it's always a hoot.

4491
02:31:20,710 --> 02:31:22,650
And that's always at 3.33 p.m.

4492
02:31:22,670 --> 02:31:25,450
at the Full Moon Bed Bar Breakfast.

4493
02:31:25,770 --> 02:31:28,330
And that's J6 or Jenny's Place.

4494
02:31:28,370 --> 02:31:28,950
You can't miss it.

4495
02:31:29,550 --> 02:31:32,370
The 25th of April, Scheveningen in the Netherlands.

4496
02:31:32,910 --> 02:31:34,970
The 8th will be Buda, Texas.

4497
02:31:35,290 --> 02:31:35,870
That's May.

4498
02:31:36,170 --> 02:31:37,350
And Leiden in the Netherlands.

4499
02:31:37,510 --> 02:31:38,650
And Eagle, Idaho on the 9th.

4500
02:31:38,650 --> 02:31:39,850
Those are just a few of the meetups

4501
02:31:39,850 --> 02:31:40,370
that are scheduled.

4502
02:31:40,490 --> 02:31:42,610
You can find them all at noagendameetups.com.

4503
02:31:42,610 --> 02:31:44,770
Man, if you go to one of these,

4504
02:31:44,890 --> 02:31:47,070
I guarantee you will come back for more.

4505
02:31:47,210 --> 02:31:48,810
You will meet people there that give you

4506
02:31:48,810 --> 02:31:51,370
protection because connection is protection.

4507
02:31:51,510 --> 02:31:53,530
They are your first responders in an emergency.

4508
02:31:54,010 --> 02:31:55,330
Go to noagendameetups.com.

4509
02:31:55,450 --> 02:31:56,290
Find one near you.

4510
02:31:56,390 --> 02:31:58,370
If you can't find one, start one yourself.

4511
02:31:58,710 --> 02:32:01,830
There's no charge, no licensing, no ID check.

4512
02:32:01,910 --> 02:32:02,830
Just put it together.

4513
02:32:02,950 --> 02:32:04,450
Have a good time with No Agenda.

4514
02:32:05,610 --> 02:32:06,650
Always a party.

4515
02:32:06,650 --> 02:32:10,290
Sometimes you want to go hang out with

4516
02:32:10,290 --> 02:32:12,950
all the nights and days.

4517
02:32:13,930 --> 02:32:16,250
You want to be where you want to

4518
02:32:16,250 --> 02:32:16,630
be.

4519
02:32:16,870 --> 02:32:18,710
Triggered or held to blame.

4520
02:32:19,430 --> 02:32:22,490
You want to be where everybody feels the

4521
02:32:22,490 --> 02:32:23,410
same.

4522
02:32:24,850 --> 02:32:26,450
It's like a party.

4523
02:32:27,190 --> 02:32:27,670
All right.

4524
02:32:27,770 --> 02:32:30,510
Now, Mimi, you came with nine ISOs.

4525
02:32:30,870 --> 02:32:30,970
Nine.

4526
02:32:30,990 --> 02:32:31,330
Nine.

4527
02:32:32,330 --> 02:32:33,250
I'm an overachiever.

4528
02:32:33,630 --> 02:32:34,390
Yes, you are.

4529
02:32:34,430 --> 02:32:36,110
And I'm just going to play mine.

4530
02:32:36,110 --> 02:32:38,030
What do I have?

4531
02:32:38,110 --> 02:32:38,990
I have four of them.

4532
02:32:39,610 --> 02:32:41,170
I thought I was loaded for bears, so

4533
02:32:41,170 --> 02:32:42,770
I'll play mine first and then we'll go

4534
02:32:42,770 --> 02:32:43,270
through yours.

4535
02:32:43,350 --> 02:32:43,770
Here we go.

4536
02:32:44,690 --> 02:32:46,290
Well, I guess that's it.

4537
02:32:46,930 --> 02:32:47,630
That's your boy.

4538
02:32:47,790 --> 02:32:48,790
You recognize him?

4539
02:32:49,210 --> 02:32:49,610
Uh-huh.

4540
02:32:50,610 --> 02:32:51,010
Yeah?

4541
02:32:51,110 --> 02:32:51,570
Who is it?

4542
02:32:53,270 --> 02:32:54,430
It sounds like Tucker.

4543
02:32:54,710 --> 02:32:55,470
No, no.

4544
02:32:55,570 --> 02:32:55,770
Listen again.

4545
02:32:55,770 --> 02:32:56,430
No, who is it?

4546
02:32:56,670 --> 02:32:57,190
Listen again.

4547
02:32:57,290 --> 02:32:57,790
Listen again.

4548
02:32:57,870 --> 02:32:58,330
You'll get it.

4549
02:32:58,750 --> 02:33:00,490
Well, I guess that's it.

4550
02:33:00,930 --> 02:33:01,950
You're in love with him.

4551
02:33:03,310 --> 02:33:03,710
Asmongold.

4552
02:33:04,710 --> 02:33:06,610
Oh, it doesn't sound like him.

4553
02:33:06,630 --> 02:33:07,310
That's funny.

4554
02:33:07,670 --> 02:33:08,250
All right.

4555
02:33:08,270 --> 02:33:08,690
Next one.

4556
02:33:08,690 --> 02:33:09,830
I am in love with him.

4557
02:33:10,010 --> 02:33:11,010
Yes, I know you are.

4558
02:33:11,170 --> 02:33:11,910
Here's the next one.

4559
02:33:11,990 --> 02:33:12,190
Okay.

4560
02:33:12,810 --> 02:33:13,190
Bye.

4561
02:33:16,110 --> 02:33:17,590
This is a classic.

4562
02:33:17,890 --> 02:33:19,670
That's important information you might want to write

4563
02:33:19,670 --> 02:33:20,230
down, folks.

4564
02:33:20,330 --> 02:33:20,550
Okay?

4565
02:33:20,750 --> 02:33:21,070
Okay.

4566
02:33:21,690 --> 02:33:24,610
And then this is my favorite.

4567
02:33:24,750 --> 02:33:27,250
We're pounding it, like really pounding it hard.

4568
02:33:29,210 --> 02:33:30,810
Kind of like that one.

4569
02:33:30,870 --> 02:33:31,310
All right.

4570
02:33:31,310 --> 02:33:34,650
So now, Mimi, I don't even have enough

4571
02:33:34,650 --> 02:33:37,730
players on my system to load them all

4572
02:33:37,730 --> 02:33:37,930
up.

4573
02:33:38,010 --> 02:33:38,390
All right.

4574
02:33:38,710 --> 02:33:39,490
Which one do we go?

4575
02:33:39,510 --> 02:33:40,450
Do we go in order?

4576
02:33:41,090 --> 02:33:41,350
Yes.

4577
02:33:41,390 --> 02:33:42,030
Let's go in order.

4578
02:33:42,250 --> 02:33:42,450
Okay.

4579
02:33:42,550 --> 02:33:43,650
Number one, ride.

4580
02:33:43,970 --> 02:33:45,150
Because I can give you a ride if

4581
02:33:45,150 --> 02:33:45,830
you need a ride.

4582
02:33:46,930 --> 02:33:47,330
Okay.

4583
02:33:48,030 --> 02:33:48,830
Number two.

4584
02:33:49,050 --> 02:33:51,210
I was not prepared for whatever that was.

4585
02:33:52,130 --> 02:33:52,990
Oh, that's kind of cool.

4586
02:33:53,010 --> 02:33:53,930
That's a little muddled.

4587
02:33:54,110 --> 02:33:55,070
Not that you can help that.

4588
02:33:55,230 --> 02:33:55,430
Okay.

4589
02:33:55,430 --> 02:33:56,090
Number three.

4590
02:33:56,610 --> 02:33:57,390
You can go.

4591
02:33:58,310 --> 02:33:58,810
You don't have to.

4592
02:33:59,170 --> 02:33:59,910
You can hang around.

4593
02:33:59,910 --> 02:34:01,970
I'm still great, but you can go.

4594
02:34:02,210 --> 02:34:03,130
Yeah, it's too long.

4595
02:34:03,270 --> 02:34:03,830
It's too long.

4596
02:34:03,910 --> 02:34:04,090
Okay.

4597
02:34:04,210 --> 02:34:04,450
Four.

4598
02:34:04,650 --> 02:34:05,650
Show is over.

4599
02:34:06,030 --> 02:34:07,050
Show is over.

4600
02:34:08,490 --> 02:34:09,210
That's cute.

4601
02:34:09,630 --> 02:34:09,930
All right.

4602
02:34:10,510 --> 02:34:11,970
This next one is too long, too.

4603
02:34:12,030 --> 02:34:13,770
These are too long, but I'll play them.

4604
02:34:13,910 --> 02:34:14,050
Okay.

4605
02:34:14,050 --> 02:34:14,870
Y'all hear me in there?

4606
02:34:15,070 --> 02:34:16,550
Rent was due last thing Thursday.

4607
02:34:16,690 --> 02:34:17,090
No more.

4608
02:34:17,190 --> 02:34:18,570
That app ain't working, hogwash.

4609
02:34:18,630 --> 02:34:20,170
You said that last go around and the

4610
02:34:20,170 --> 02:34:21,010
one before that.

4611
02:34:21,130 --> 02:34:21,750
Here ain't charity.

4612
02:34:21,930 --> 02:34:22,310
It's busy.

4613
02:34:22,590 --> 02:34:22,950
No.

4614
02:34:23,570 --> 02:34:23,930
Unacceptable.

4615
02:34:24,310 --> 02:34:24,670
Unacceptable.

4616
02:34:24,690 --> 02:34:26,030
I know, but it's cute.

4617
02:34:26,150 --> 02:34:26,410
Okay.

4618
02:34:26,510 --> 02:34:27,170
Gotta get going.

4619
02:34:27,170 --> 02:34:28,110
I miss you already.

4620
02:34:28,430 --> 02:34:28,810
Stop.

4621
02:34:29,350 --> 02:34:29,970
Oh, that's cute.

4622
02:34:30,070 --> 02:34:30,810
I like that one.

4623
02:34:31,070 --> 02:34:31,590
Let's see.

4624
02:34:31,810 --> 02:34:33,410
Another one that's way too long.

4625
02:34:33,550 --> 02:34:33,650
Mimi.

4626
02:34:34,330 --> 02:34:37,570
Give me your nuts at home.

4627
02:34:39,070 --> 02:34:40,110
What is that?

4628
02:34:40,630 --> 02:34:41,050
No.

4629
02:34:41,510 --> 02:34:41,850
No.

4630
02:34:41,990 --> 02:34:43,910
You don't understand ISOs.

4631
02:34:44,010 --> 02:34:44,190
All right.

4632
02:34:44,330 --> 02:34:45,890
I know, but I thought it was funny.

4633
02:34:46,210 --> 02:34:46,410
Okay.

4634
02:34:46,570 --> 02:34:47,150
Number eight.

4635
02:34:47,350 --> 02:34:47,670
What?

4636
02:34:48,990 --> 02:34:49,370
What?

4637
02:34:51,070 --> 02:34:51,550
Okay.

4638
02:34:51,830 --> 02:34:52,890
You know who that is?

4639
02:34:52,990 --> 02:34:53,530
That's Tucker.

4640
02:34:53,750 --> 02:34:54,210
That's Tucker.

4641
02:34:54,210 --> 02:34:54,370
Yeah.

4642
02:34:54,570 --> 02:34:55,870
And this is a longer one.

4643
02:34:55,910 --> 02:34:56,250
What?

4644
02:34:56,670 --> 02:34:57,150
What?

4645
02:34:58,410 --> 02:35:00,430
What are you even talking about?

4646
02:35:01,450 --> 02:35:02,510
I kind of like.

4647
02:35:03,130 --> 02:35:03,870
Let me see.

4648
02:35:03,950 --> 02:35:04,630
Was it this one?

4649
02:35:05,110 --> 02:35:05,330
No.

4650
02:35:05,410 --> 02:35:06,070
No, that's not.

4651
02:35:07,350 --> 02:35:09,270
I thought this one was kind of what

4652
02:35:09,270 --> 02:35:09,630
I like.

4653
02:35:09,650 --> 02:35:10,330
Gotta get going.

4654
02:35:10,410 --> 02:35:11,230
I miss you already.

4655
02:35:11,570 --> 02:35:11,850
Stop.

4656
02:35:12,670 --> 02:35:13,710
I kind of like that one.

4657
02:35:14,490 --> 02:35:15,590
You get to choose.

4658
02:35:16,250 --> 02:35:17,170
Oh, you know what?

4659
02:35:18,670 --> 02:35:19,470
I'm fine.

4660
02:35:19,710 --> 02:35:21,550
You choose whatever you want.

4661
02:35:21,690 --> 02:35:22,410
Number six.

4662
02:35:22,510 --> 02:35:23,230
It is, everybody.

4663
02:35:23,430 --> 02:35:25,070
And before we go, of course, it is

4664
02:35:25,070 --> 02:35:26,630
time for the tip of the day with

4665
02:35:26,630 --> 02:35:27,710
the one and only Mimi.

4666
02:35:28,450 --> 02:35:31,010
Great advice for you and me.

4667
02:35:31,190 --> 02:35:33,810
Just the tip with JCB.

4668
02:35:34,330 --> 02:35:36,190
And sometimes Adam.

4669
02:35:38,190 --> 02:35:40,810
Well, hopefully this isn't one that John's already

4670
02:35:40,810 --> 02:35:43,190
done because I'm always raving about this product,

4671
02:35:43,190 --> 02:35:45,070
but I think he's doesn't like it because

4672
02:35:45,070 --> 02:35:45,690
of the name.

4673
02:35:46,270 --> 02:35:48,310
I have four elderly dogs.

4674
02:35:48,870 --> 02:35:51,790
So my biggest hobby in life is picking

4675
02:35:51,790 --> 02:35:53,150
is cleaning up dog pee.

4676
02:35:53,370 --> 02:35:53,950
What is that?

4677
02:35:53,970 --> 02:35:54,810
What is elderly?

4678
02:35:55,130 --> 02:35:56,310
How old is elderly?

4679
02:35:57,130 --> 02:35:58,810
I have a basset hound who is 16

4680
02:35:58,810 --> 02:36:00,770
years old, which is twice the age of

4681
02:36:00,770 --> 02:36:01,330
a normal basset.

4682
02:36:01,790 --> 02:36:02,910
That's up there for sure.

4683
02:36:03,210 --> 02:36:05,450
And I've got two 12 year olds and

4684
02:36:05,450 --> 02:36:07,390
an 11 year old mastiff.

4685
02:36:07,490 --> 02:36:08,870
So they're all quite old.

4686
02:36:09,710 --> 02:36:10,150
Okay.

4687
02:36:10,470 --> 02:36:10,670
Yeah.

4688
02:36:10,770 --> 02:36:11,930
They're all really old.

4689
02:36:12,010 --> 02:36:13,150
And are they all incontinent?

4690
02:36:13,270 --> 02:36:14,070
Is that what you're telling me?

4691
02:36:14,110 --> 02:36:14,870
They all pee every.

4692
02:36:15,030 --> 02:36:15,470
Really?

4693
02:36:15,870 --> 02:36:17,470
You sure they're just not trained properly?

4694
02:36:17,650 --> 02:36:17,970
It's just.

4695
02:36:18,950 --> 02:36:21,670
No, no, no, no, no, no.

4696
02:36:21,670 --> 02:36:22,730
This is no.

4697
02:36:22,890 --> 02:36:24,530
Dogs don't pee when they're walking.

4698
02:36:24,730 --> 02:36:25,150
Okay.

4699
02:36:25,150 --> 02:36:30,610
So, yeah, my, my animals are getting much

4700
02:36:30,610 --> 02:36:33,070
too old and diapers are, I'd be changing

4701
02:36:33,070 --> 02:36:33,910
diapers all day.

4702
02:36:33,990 --> 02:36:35,390
So I just clean the floor constantly.

4703
02:36:35,890 --> 02:36:39,330
So this product is called my pet peed.

4704
02:36:39,550 --> 02:36:41,870
No, this has not been featured on the

4705
02:36:41,870 --> 02:36:42,110
show.

4706
02:36:42,230 --> 02:36:43,270
I guarantee you.

4707
02:36:43,270 --> 02:36:44,050
Yeah, I know.

4708
02:36:44,050 --> 02:36:45,190
My pet peed.

4709
02:36:45,270 --> 02:36:46,910
The last word is P E E D.

4710
02:36:47,590 --> 02:36:50,910
It removes pet stains and odors like it's

4711
02:36:50,910 --> 02:36:51,630
magic.

4712
02:36:51,630 --> 02:36:55,390
It's safe around kids, around pets, around plants.

4713
02:36:55,810 --> 02:36:57,350
It gets the smell out.

4714
02:36:57,470 --> 02:36:58,550
It's fragrance free.

4715
02:36:59,030 --> 02:37:00,870
It does not rely on enzymes.

4716
02:37:02,070 --> 02:37:04,870
What's it made of this magic formula?

4717
02:37:05,410 --> 02:37:07,790
It's some strange type of hydrogen peroxide.

4718
02:37:08,230 --> 02:37:09,690
So it may take the color out of

4719
02:37:09,690 --> 02:37:12,530
some natural fiber carpets, but for the most

4720
02:37:12,530 --> 02:37:13,350
part, I don't care.

4721
02:37:13,430 --> 02:37:14,770
I want the smell out more than I

4722
02:37:14,770 --> 02:37:15,830
don't care about color anymore.

4723
02:37:15,850 --> 02:37:17,330
Your dogs are peeing on your carpet?

4724
02:37:18,630 --> 02:37:20,570
No, I've got washable carpets everywhere.

4725
02:37:20,570 --> 02:37:21,830
Rugs everywhere.

4726
02:37:22,050 --> 02:37:24,410
I have all hardwood floors or all wood

4727
02:37:24,410 --> 02:37:24,610
floors.

4728
02:37:24,850 --> 02:37:26,090
Now I know why John doesn't want to

4729
02:37:26,090 --> 02:37:26,690
move up there.

4730
02:37:26,810 --> 02:37:27,290
It's obvious.

4731
02:37:27,610 --> 02:37:28,270
It's a pee house.

4732
02:37:28,870 --> 02:37:31,830
Someday I'm going to fall.

4733
02:37:32,030 --> 02:37:33,490
I'm going to die because I'm going to

4734
02:37:33,490 --> 02:37:35,930
fall on pet pee and I'll just be

4735
02:37:35,930 --> 02:37:36,510
in the puddle.

4736
02:37:38,910 --> 02:37:39,390
Okay.

4737
02:37:39,630 --> 02:37:40,590
Nice visual.

4738
02:37:40,830 --> 02:37:41,310
Thank you.

4739
02:37:41,530 --> 02:37:42,070
We got it.

4740
02:37:42,170 --> 02:37:42,630
We got it.

4741
02:37:43,010 --> 02:37:44,150
You use it straight.

4742
02:37:44,630 --> 02:37:45,890
You use it sparingly.

4743
02:37:46,270 --> 02:37:47,070
It's expensive.

4744
02:37:47,070 --> 02:37:50,950
For a 32-ounce spray, it's $34.95.

4745
02:37:51,230 --> 02:37:52,810
The best deal on Amazon is a two

4746
02:37:52,810 --> 02:37:56,270
-pack, which is $49.95. I buy it

4747
02:37:56,270 --> 02:37:59,310
by the gallon, 128 fluid ounces or Florida

4748
02:37:59,310 --> 02:37:59,690
ounces.

4749
02:38:03,870 --> 02:38:06,610
That's like $79, $80.

4750
02:38:07,170 --> 02:38:09,010
It works so well, though.

4751
02:38:09,050 --> 02:38:09,930
It lasts a while.

4752
02:38:10,710 --> 02:38:13,890
It really does get the smell out.

4753
02:38:13,890 --> 02:38:17,550
It gets stains out of carpets if they're

4754
02:38:17,550 --> 02:38:18,250
colorfast.

4755
02:38:19,490 --> 02:38:22,010
I use it constantly.

4756
02:38:23,470 --> 02:38:25,250
I don't think I would be able to

4757
02:38:25,250 --> 02:38:26,870
stand the smell of my house if I

4758
02:38:26,870 --> 02:38:27,790
didn't use this stuff.

4759
02:38:28,110 --> 02:38:29,790
I've tried everything on the market.

4760
02:38:30,350 --> 02:38:30,750
Everything.

4761
02:38:30,750 --> 02:38:32,330
Can you also use it if you kill

4762
02:38:32,330 --> 02:38:33,470
someone, they bleed out?

4763
02:38:33,590 --> 02:38:34,550
Does it get rid of that?

4764
02:38:35,030 --> 02:38:35,310
Oh, yeah.

4765
02:38:35,370 --> 02:38:35,770
Absolutely.

4766
02:38:35,990 --> 02:38:36,090
It would.

4767
02:38:36,250 --> 02:38:37,030
You'd do a good job.

4768
02:38:37,270 --> 02:38:39,410
Or if you have a pukey family.

4769
02:38:42,010 --> 02:38:44,050
Or for a good cleaning product.

4770
02:38:44,050 --> 02:38:46,550
If you have a really grimy place that

4771
02:38:46,550 --> 02:38:48,950
you've forgotten to clean for years, you spray

4772
02:38:48,950 --> 02:38:50,650
some of that on and you leave it

4773
02:38:50,650 --> 02:38:52,410
for a couple hours, then you wipe it

4774
02:38:52,410 --> 02:38:53,650
up, and it is beautiful.

4775
02:38:53,970 --> 02:38:54,410
All right.

4776
02:38:54,430 --> 02:38:56,130
Give us the name again of this fabulous

4777
02:38:56,130 --> 02:38:56,670
product.

4778
02:38:57,290 --> 02:38:58,470
My Pet Peed.

4779
02:38:58,770 --> 02:38:59,910
My Pet Peed.

4780
02:38:59,970 --> 02:39:00,770
There it is, everybody.

4781
02:39:00,930 --> 02:39:03,910
A spooktacular tip of the day from Mamimi.

4782
02:39:05,310 --> 02:39:07,730
Great advice for you and me.

4783
02:39:08,030 --> 02:39:10,650
Just a tip with JCD.

4784
02:39:11,270 --> 02:39:12,950
And sometimes Adam.

4785
02:39:13,650 --> 02:39:14,790
Created by Dana Burnetti.

4786
02:39:14,930 --> 02:39:15,790
Well, there you go.

4787
02:39:15,950 --> 02:39:19,510
Mimi, it has been a pleasure working with

4788
02:39:19,510 --> 02:39:19,710
you.

4789
02:39:20,490 --> 02:39:22,650
It's been lovely, but it's way too much

4790
02:39:22,650 --> 02:39:23,390
work for me.

4791
02:39:23,870 --> 02:39:26,550
No one's seen me in two weeks.

4792
02:39:26,610 --> 02:39:28,130
I'm like, I have to work.

4793
02:39:28,210 --> 02:39:28,850
I have to work.

4794
02:39:29,090 --> 02:39:30,790
And I'm still not good at it, but

4795
02:39:30,790 --> 02:39:32,030
I'm starting to get the hang of it.

4796
02:39:32,030 --> 02:39:33,830
So next time John needs a fill-in,

4797
02:39:33,930 --> 02:39:34,750
I guess I could do it.

4798
02:39:35,130 --> 02:39:36,610
I really appreciate it.

4799
02:39:36,710 --> 02:39:40,630
It is above and beyond, and it's just

4800
02:39:40,630 --> 02:39:43,010
been so great to get to know you

4801
02:39:43,010 --> 02:39:44,630
a little bit better after all these years.

4802
02:39:45,130 --> 02:39:46,950
And the next time we talk, it will

4803
02:39:46,950 --> 02:39:49,190
be some crap about me getting you information

4804
02:39:49,190 --> 02:39:49,750
for taxes.

4805
02:39:49,890 --> 02:39:50,990
So we've got to do that too.

4806
02:39:52,770 --> 02:39:53,730
Don't remind me.

4807
02:39:53,910 --> 02:39:54,850
I'm so behind.

4808
02:39:55,090 --> 02:39:55,730
Yes, I did.

4809
02:39:56,550 --> 02:39:59,070
Tina's like, we're filing late, aren't we?

4810
02:39:59,610 --> 02:40:00,050
Probably.

4811
02:40:00,050 --> 02:40:02,550
No, we've already filed late.

4812
02:40:02,610 --> 02:40:03,030
It's fine.

4813
02:40:03,090 --> 02:40:05,950
We've filed extensions for business anyway.

4814
02:40:06,750 --> 02:40:10,010
Thank you very much, No Agenda Nation, for

4815
02:40:10,010 --> 02:40:10,690
being with us.

4816
02:40:10,870 --> 02:40:12,810
Coming up next on the No Agenda Stream,

4817
02:40:13,210 --> 02:40:14,190
we have DH Unplugged.

4818
02:40:15,250 --> 02:40:18,490
This will be with Horowitz and the young

4819
02:40:18,490 --> 02:40:22,230
John Dvorak, which I hear he's done a

4820
02:40:22,230 --> 02:40:22,930
really good job.

4821
02:40:23,030 --> 02:40:24,390
The whole family's been pitching him.

4822
02:40:25,070 --> 02:40:27,910
End of show mixes, we've got, what do

4823
02:40:27,910 --> 02:40:28,350
we have?

4824
02:40:28,350 --> 02:40:30,390
We have Professor Jay Jones.

4825
02:40:30,550 --> 02:40:33,510
We've got the Clip Custodian and more.

4826
02:40:33,930 --> 02:40:35,270
And we'll be back on Sunday with the

4827
02:40:35,270 --> 02:40:36,490
return of John Dvorak.

4828
02:40:36,530 --> 02:40:40,290
Until then, adios mofos, hui hui, and such.

4829
02:40:40,330 --> 02:40:42,270
I'm concerned about Benjamin Netanyahu.

4830
02:40:42,630 --> 02:40:44,770
The fact that he knew where Hamas was

4831
02:40:44,770 --> 02:40:46,230
getting its money in 2018.

4832
02:40:46,570 --> 02:40:47,970
He refused to cut it off.

4833
02:40:48,510 --> 02:40:50,930
I'm concerned that he continued to prop Hamas

4834
02:40:50,930 --> 02:40:51,130
up.

4835
02:40:52,230 --> 02:40:58,090
I'm concerned that Benjamin Netanyahu had Hamas's terrorist

4836
02:40:58,090 --> 02:41:01,390
plans a year before the terrorist attacks and

4837
02:41:01,390 --> 02:41:02,050
they did nothing.

4838
02:41:03,640 --> 02:41:07,090
After the attacks, did nothing for 6, 7,

4839
02:41:07,310 --> 02:41:08,790
8, 10 hours.

4840
02:41:09,110 --> 02:41:10,490
They were ill-prepared.

4841
02:41:11,030 --> 02:41:13,290
I've never seen anything like it.

4842
02:41:14,580 --> 02:41:19,670
Are we really going to tie Israel's future

4843
02:41:19,670 --> 02:41:21,630
up to this man?

4844
02:41:21,630 --> 02:41:24,070
And say, if those of us who love

4845
02:41:24,070 --> 02:41:28,130
Israel, those of us who were taught in

4846
02:41:28,130 --> 02:41:32,070
Sunday school when we were 5 years old,

4847
02:41:32,430 --> 02:41:38,170
that Jews are God's chosen people, because 6

4848
02:41:38,170 --> 02:41:43,510
million were slaughtered in the Holocaust, are we

4849
02:41:43,510 --> 02:41:48,470
not allowed to question Benjamin Netanyahu's motives?

4850
02:41:49,830 --> 02:41:52,790
Because if not, that's pretty sick.

4851
02:41:53,030 --> 02:41:55,170
And it's not in Israel's best interest.

4852
02:42:01,170 --> 02:42:03,330
Because all countries need allies.

4853
02:42:03,470 --> 02:42:05,710
Here is a group of people who we

4854
02:42:05,710 --> 02:42:09,210
can use as the theoreticians and the executors

4855
02:42:09,210 --> 02:42:12,010
of the U.S. policy that we want.

4856
02:42:12,350 --> 02:42:14,630
And Israel is an ally, it's a fighting

4857
02:42:14,630 --> 02:42:16,270
ally that pulls its weight.

4858
02:42:16,270 --> 02:42:18,630
America's landed aircraft carrier.

4859
02:42:18,850 --> 02:42:19,870
We're the junior partner.

4860
02:42:20,570 --> 02:42:22,370
We have fought now a 7-front war,

4861
02:42:22,430 --> 02:42:23,250
we have an 8th front.

4862
02:42:23,510 --> 02:42:26,190
The infosphere is the 8th front.

4863
02:42:26,610 --> 02:42:29,210
And seizing the high ground in the fight

4864
02:42:29,210 --> 02:42:32,090
for global public opinion is a battle.

4865
02:42:32,510 --> 02:42:33,850
He told these people, I think they're going

4866
02:42:33,850 --> 02:42:34,310
to kill me.

4867
02:42:34,470 --> 02:42:34,930
Who is they?

4868
02:42:35,050 --> 02:42:36,830
Charlie writes in this group chat, just lost

4869
02:42:36,830 --> 02:42:38,790
another huge Jewish donor.

4870
02:42:39,110 --> 02:42:41,670
Jewish donors play into all of the stereotypes.

4871
02:42:41,870 --> 02:42:44,770
I cannot and will not be bullied like

4872
02:42:44,770 --> 02:42:45,150
this.

4873
02:42:46,010 --> 02:42:48,110
Reporters in Gaza are Palestinians.

4874
02:42:48,750 --> 02:42:50,810
And those people fall into three categories.

4875
02:42:51,010 --> 02:42:52,370
Some of them identify with Hamas.

4876
02:42:52,730 --> 02:42:54,030
Some of them are intimidated.

4877
02:42:54,450 --> 02:42:56,530
And the third category is people who actually

4878
02:42:56,530 --> 02:42:57,650
belong to Hamas.

4879
02:42:57,970 --> 02:42:59,570
The AP, like all of its sister organizations,

4880
02:43:00,170 --> 02:43:01,970
collaborates with Hamas censorship in Gaza.

4881
02:43:02,070 --> 02:43:02,770
What does that mean?

4882
02:43:03,310 --> 02:43:05,490
The center of the coverage will be a

4883
02:43:05,490 --> 02:43:08,170
number, a casualty number that is provided to

4884
02:43:08,170 --> 02:43:10,670
the press by something called the Gaza Health

4885
02:43:10,670 --> 02:43:11,850
Ministry, which is Hamas.

4886
02:43:11,850 --> 02:43:14,710
And it's a way of basically settling the

4887
02:43:14,710 --> 02:43:17,110
story before you get into any other information.

4888
02:43:17,490 --> 02:43:20,110
General Michael Flynn calls out Netanyahu and the

4889
02:43:20,110 --> 02:43:23,130
Israeli military leadership for clearly standing down.

4890
02:43:23,430 --> 02:43:25,670
But the point is, and so these governments

4891
02:43:25,670 --> 02:43:26,670
all need a boogeyman.

4892
02:43:27,010 --> 02:43:27,750
I'm your boogeyman.

4893
02:43:27,850 --> 02:43:29,290
Somebody had had a bunch of the troops

4894
02:43:29,290 --> 02:43:29,930
stand down.

4895
02:43:30,550 --> 02:43:32,830
I mean, this is 9-11 all over

4896
02:43:32,830 --> 02:43:33,130
again.

4897
02:43:33,410 --> 02:43:34,130
I'm your boogeyman.

4898
02:43:34,270 --> 02:43:37,010
Breakthrough, overrun, go in.

4899
02:43:37,530 --> 02:43:38,790
Israel supports Hamas.

4900
02:43:38,790 --> 02:43:40,830
There's a lot of back-channel wink-wink

4901
02:43:40,830 --> 02:43:41,650
going on here.

4902
02:43:42,390 --> 02:43:43,690
Suitcases full of cash.

4903
02:43:43,990 --> 02:43:44,990
It is true.

4904
02:43:45,330 --> 02:43:46,110
I'm your boogeyman.

4905
02:43:46,650 --> 02:43:48,750
And so these governments all need a boogeyman.

4906
02:43:49,150 --> 02:43:50,270
No, I don't support Hamas.

4907
02:43:50,490 --> 02:43:51,870
You are 100% right.

4908
02:43:52,070 --> 02:43:53,010
We don't support Hamas.

4909
02:43:53,230 --> 02:43:54,170
I'm your boogeyman.

4910
02:43:54,530 --> 02:43:55,230
I looked it up.

4911
02:43:55,550 --> 02:43:58,270
Israeli intelligence created Hamas.

4912
02:43:58,630 --> 02:44:00,870
General Michael Flynn calls out Netanyahu.

4913
02:44:01,250 --> 02:44:01,630
Let's begin.

4914
02:44:02,050 --> 02:44:03,870
There's no way.

4915
02:44:04,070 --> 02:44:04,910
I'm your boogeyman.

4916
02:44:05,090 --> 02:44:06,290
Israel supports Hamas.

4917
02:44:06,410 --> 02:44:07,390
It is true.

4918
02:44:07,590 --> 02:44:08,450
I looked it up.

4919
02:44:08,450 --> 02:44:09,810
No, I don't support Hamas.

4920
02:44:10,070 --> 02:44:10,870
I'm your boogeyman.

4921
02:44:11,290 --> 02:44:13,590
I mean, this is 9-11 all over

4922
02:44:13,590 --> 02:44:13,890
again.

4923
02:44:14,690 --> 02:44:16,490
But the point is, I'm your boogeyman.

4924
02:44:17,270 --> 02:44:18,490
Suitcases full of cash.

4925
02:44:18,610 --> 02:44:20,310
There's a lot of back-channel wink-wink

4926
02:44:20,310 --> 02:44:21,070
going on here.

4927
02:44:21,270 --> 02:44:21,950
I looked it up.

4928
02:44:22,550 --> 02:44:24,410
And so these governments all need a boogeyman.

4929
02:44:24,730 --> 02:44:27,350
Breakthrough, overrun, go in.

4930
02:44:31,830 --> 02:44:35,170
The best podcast in the universe.

4931
02:44:36,030 --> 02:44:36,750
MoFo.

4932
02:44:36,830 --> 02:44:40,310
Dvorak.org slash N-A.

4933
02:44:41,050 --> 02:44:42,170
Gotta get going.

4934
02:44:42,270 --> 02:44:43,090
I miss you already.

4935
02:44:43,450 --> 02:44:43,630
Stop.
