    Studio banter: novelty mug gifts and “storage for drugs” jokes

    1. NA

      (drum roll) Joe Rogan podcast, check it out. The Joe Rogan Experience.

    2. JR

      Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night. All day. (rock music) We're good now?

    3. TD

      Yeah. Um, but yeah, he... This is Turkey Murky sent us these and some zombie ones and-

    4. JR

      Sick.

    5. TD

      ... tech-... Not the best to drink out of, though.

    6. JR

      You can't drink out of it.

    7. TD

      'Cause it's, like, curved at the top, so you spill all over yourself.

    8. JR

      Yeah.

    9. TD

      But who cares?

    10. JR

      You gotta put something in it and then just have it.

    11. TD

      Yeah.

    12. JR

      You know?

    13. TD

      Like pens or something?

    14. JR

      Yeah. Drugs.

    15. TD

      (laughs)

    16. JR

      (laughs)

    17. TD

      Yeah. It would be good for drugs. Look at-

    18. JR

      Oh.

    19. TD

      ... look at that face.

    20. JR

      It'd be great.

    21. TD

      If you had some drugs laying around-

    22. JR

      That would be the-

    23. TD

      ... that's where you'd put them.

    24. JR

      ... that's the spot.

    25. TD

      (laughs)

    26. JR

      (laughs)

  2. 0:422:55

    Trump drone-strike clip, Venezuela, and cartel politics spillover

    1. TD

      So, we were talking about the video, uh, that Trump posted, this video, of, uh, them drone bombing some narco guys in the middle of the ocean.

    2. JR

      In Venez-... Venezuelan drug traffickers?

    3. TD

      (laughs)

    4. JR

      Right?

    5. TD

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      I think that's what it was.

    7. TD

      Yeah.

    8. JR

      Venezuelan-

    9. TD

      Trendy-agua.

    10. JR

      ... trendy-agua.

    11. TD

      However you say it.

    12. JR

      They're... It's a real thing.

    13. TD

      Yeah.

    14. JR

      They're a real thing.

    15. TD

      Oh, yeah.

    16. JR

      Yeah.

    17. TD

      Yeah.

    18. JR

      You know?

    19. TD

      He's accusing the president of Venezuela of being i- involved, right?

    20. JR

      That could lead to an interesting place, you know? I mean-

    21. TD

      What-

    22. JR

      ... it could lead to a... I imagine we're doing that because we're trying to suggest that it would be better if he wasn't the president?

    23. TD

      Probably something-

    24. JR

      (laughs)

    25. TD

      ... along those lines. Wait, are... I mean, isn't there, like, a bounty on him?

    26. JR

      Uh, I believe there is.

    27. TD

      Yeah (laughs) .

    28. JR

      (laughs)

    29. TD

      I think it's, like, open and public. There's like-

    30. JR

      I-

  3. 2:553:57

    Fentanyl escalation: adulterated drugs, China supply chains, and “warfare” framing

    1. TD

      Well, probably a lot of fentanyl-

    2. JR

      Lotta wasted drugs.

    3. TD

      ... in that. Probably bad drugs.

    4. JR

      Well, this is a b- big problem is that the drugs now are worse than they've ever been.

    5. TD

      Oh, yeah.

    6. JR

      I mean, all drugs are bad, but the drugs now seem to be unbelievably bad.

    7. TD

      Well, it's the fentanyl.

    8. JR

      Yeah.

    9. TD

      Um, uh, Ed was explaining that too.

    10. JR

      Yeah.

    11. TD

      He's like, "The soil that they grow the poppies on to make heroin is so bad, it's so taxed out, that the heroin was very weak, and they couldn't sell it. So, they had to add fentanyl to the heroin to make it stronger."

    12. JR

      And they spice it up. They cut it with fentanyl.

    13. TD

      Exactly. That's how it started.

    14. JR

      And fentanyl is what is killing everybody that's doing cocaine-

    15. TD

      Uh-huh.

    16. JR

      ... and it's laced with fentanyl, and then they drop.

    17. TD

      Mm-hmm. Yeah, and-

    18. JR

      It's terrible.

    19. TD

      And it all comes from China.

    20. JR

      Yeah.

    21. TD

      All the fentanyl.

    22. JR

      Well, yeah. I mean, there's-

    23. TD

      All the precursors, everything.

    24. JR

      It is kind of a way... If you are a foreign country, it is a way to... It is some type of warfare.

    25. TD

      Oh, yeah.

    26. JR

      You know?

    27. TD

      Yeah.

    28. JR

      For sure.

    29. TD

      Yeah. There's, there's a bunch of different things that they're doing, for sure, to try to destabilize the United States.

    30. JR

      Yeah.

  4. 3:575:34

    Bots, AI persuasion, and ‘don’t argue online’: Grok vs ChatGPT as culture signals

    1. TD

      And, uh, that... Which includes social media, which is why I tell people-

    2. JR

      Yeah.

    3. TD

      ... do not argue with people on social media because I bet most of those people aren't even real.

    4. JR

      Yeah.

    5. TD

      Mo-... There's a giant amount of people that are on social media that are there just to keep arguments going.

    6. JR

      Absolutely.

    7. TD

      Yeah.

    8. JR

      Lots of bots.

    9. TD

      Lots of bots.

    10. JR

      Sure.

    11. TD

      And this was something that came up yesterday, where y-... Um, they were using ChatGPT. So, they have sort of a program that runs ChatGPT so it ac- acts like real humans. And it was attacking people about USAID and, and, and-

    12. JR

      Really?

    13. TD

      ... trans issues-

    14. JR

      Right.

    15. TD

      ... all sorts of different stuff.

    16. JR

      Is that Grok?

    17. TD

      No. Grok is the AI from X. So, that's the Twitter AI.

    18. JR

      Right.

    19. TD

      So, ChatGPT is OpenAI.

    20. JR

      Chat's the big... That's the based AI. Grok.

    21. TD

      Sort of.

    22. JR

      Grok is kinda the one who's based.

    23. TD

      It got, it got removed for a little bit-

    24. JR

      Well, that's how you know it's-

    25. TD

      ... because he said that Israel was con- co- committing genocide.

    26. JR

      The... What I like about Grok is that occasionally it's removed.

    27. TD

      Yeah (laughs) .

    28. JR

      That's how I know Grok's onto something, because it's occasionally put in timeout-

    29. TD

      Yeah (laughs) .

    30. JR

      ... and then it comes back. Any AI that's not removed, I don't trust. I need an AI that's getting removed pretty frequently when it runs up against an issue.

    Europe’s political tension: Germany’s AFD candidate deaths and UK speech policing

    1. TD

      Do you see the, uh, the German right-wing party, uh, seven members have died leading up to the election over the last couple days?

    2. JR

      And this is the AD-

    3. TD

      AFD.

    4. JR

      ... AFD or something?

    5. TD

      Yeah.

    6. JR

      I, I, I saw that. That seems a bit spooky that that's going on.

    7. TD

      A little suspicious.

    8. JR

      Yeah.

    9. TD

      A little suspicious. Yeah.

    10. JR

      That's very interesting.

    11. TD

      Yeah, it is.

    12. JR

      How did they all die?

    13. TD

      "Germany's far-right AFD suffers series of candidate deaths ahead of local votes."Well, I would imagine they were assassinated, Tim.

    14. JR

      Right.

    15. TD

      (clears throat) No evidence of foul play. (laughs)

    16. JR

      Thank God. Thank God, I was worried.

    17. TD

      (laughs) What are the odds that that many people- (laughs) ... that are a part of something die that quickly?

    18. JR

      Yeah.

    19. TD

      Uh, they said it was six, but today it's seven. Number of deaths has nevertheless raised questions on social media. That said, like, if they really are far right extremists-

    20. JR

      Maybe they're out there doing fentanyl. Maybe they're wacky people.

    21. TD

      Maybe they're doing, maybe they're doing something. Seven seems like a really inconvenient number of people to die before an election. Yeah. That seems to be-

    22. JR

      Yes.

    23. TD

      ... quite suspect. Right up there with the Mexican assassinations. Yeah. Well, this is... Europe right now has become, you know, we had our election, so then the UK right now is kind of the most interesting place to watch, because of everything that's taking place. And Germany is not far behind. But like, this is where a lot of the tumult in the world is coming to a head, in like Europe, the UK. Mm-hmm. Things with migration, things with speech-

    24. JR

      Mm-hmm.

  6. 7:099:59

    Graham Linehan arrest: tweets, trans politics, and criminalizing speech

    1. TD

      ... that we talked about. Yeah, the Graham Linehan stuff.

    2. JR

      Crazy.

    3. TD

      He, he left this podcast, and I was telling him, "Why are you gonna go back?" Like, it s- seems crazy to go back, 'cause he's living in America now.

    4. JR

      Right.

    5. TD

      I'm like, "Why, why are you gonna go back?" He goes like, "Well, I have to. I have a court case." He's getting sued by some crazy trans person, and, um, goes back and was arrested for three tweets. And what were the... Do we know what the tweets were?

    6. JR

      Oh yeah.

    7. TD

      I mean, not that- Yeah, one of 'em is a photo-

    8. JR

      Yeah.

    9. TD

      ... of a trans rally. It says, "A photo that you can smell." That's it. (sighs) I mean, it's like so wild that you would be put in handcuffs for that tweet. The other one- None of them are, obviously, yeah. ... is a photo of, uh, these trans people, where he commented, "Homophobes and, and, uh, misogynists, all of them. Fuck them."

    10. JR

      Right. Right.

    11. TD

      Imagine.

    12. JR

      You would think that would put you in the clear. (laughs)

    13. TD

      (laughs) But imagine.

    14. JR

      Yeah.

    15. TD

      That's one of the posts-

    16. JR

      Yeah.

    17. TD

      ... that they cited-

    18. JR

      Right.

    19. TD

      ... as being the reason for, for arresting him.

    20. JR

      Interesting.

    21. TD

      And then the other one is saying that if, uh, a man, uh, who identifies as a woman enters a women's bathroom, he is committing a, uh... And, uh, we- we should pull it up just so I can get the-

    22. JR

      Yeah.

    23. TD

      ... so I don't misquote it. Uh, I- I retweeted it, so it's on my Twitter page, if you wanna find it. But, uh, something about that it's a... I forget what, how he described the act, but the- the- the problem was that he said, "You should yell, you should call authorities, yell, and if that doesn't work, punch him in the balls."

    24. JR

      Right. Fun.

    25. TD

      Yeah. Yeah, fun. So here it is. "If a trans-identified male is in a female-only space, he is committing a violent, abusive act. Make a scene, call the cops, and if all else fails, punch him in the balls."

    26. JR

      There's something-

    27. TD

      Arrested.

    28. JR

      ... in this-

    29. TD

      You belong in a locked-up cage-

    30. JR

      Yeah.

    Saudi comedy payday and the migration ‘double standard’ argument

    1. JR

      I will be doing it at the Riyadh Comedy Festival very soon.

    2. TD

      (screams)

    3. JR

      Get your tickets! Ah!

    4. TD

      Get your tickets! Are you really gonna go there?

    5. JR

      Of course I am.

    6. TD

      Wow.

    7. JR

      Why would I not?

    8. TD

      Uh... (groans)

    9. JR

      Where they kill gay people and women.

    10. TD

      Yeah. (laughs)

    11. JR

      By the way, we've said that about... We say this about every Muslim... Every Muslim country's throwing gay people off the roof all the time-

    12. TD

      Right.

    13. JR

      ... by the way. Okay? Um, I obviously don't agree with Saudi Arabian policies on women and things like that.

    14. TD

      Yeah.

    15. JR

      Is it my business to tell Saudi Arabia how to live? Truly.

    16. TD

      How big was the check?

    17. JR

      $375,000 for one show.

    18. TD

      Nice.

    19. JR

      That's not bad.

    20. TD

      That's pretty good.

    21. JR

      That's not bad.

    22. TD

      I'll take that.

    23. JR

      I'll watch a behanding for that.

    24. TD

      (laughs) Behanding?

    25. JR

      Yeah.

    26. TD

      (laughs)

    27. JR

      It's called a behanding. What happens is they cut the hand off the thief.

    28. TD

      Yeah.

    29. JR

      Here's the thing.

    30. TD

      Don't steal.

  8. 12:4717:12

    Demographics, family policy, and the economics of having kids

    1. TD

      ... like, how many babies they're having versus how many babies the English people... I mean, they're openly talking about it, "We're going to out-breed you."

    2. JR

      This is why when people talk about this issue, they often use the example of, you know, Western countries not reproducing enough-

    3. TD

      Yeah.

    4. JR

      ... not replicating their population, and they go, "Well, there's going to be a crisis because people are not having enough children, so immigration is needed to sustain the population." What they never talk about is why people aren't having enough children, and a lot of it is because economically they feel like they cannot afford to. Culturally, there have been policies that have, you know, focused on things outside of the family. We haven't had a ton of, like, pro-family policies in Western countries.

    5. TD

      There's a little bit of that, but then there's also the issue that a lot of people have careers and they're trying to wait, okay? So-

    6. JR

      Sure.

    7. TD

      ... if you're a woman-

    8. JR

      Yeah.

    9. TD

      ... and you're in your 30s and you've decided-

    10. JR

      Gross.

    11. TD

      ... you want to have a family-

    12. JR

      (laughs) Just joking.

    13. TD

      ... and, you know, you're 35, 36-

    14. JR

      Yeah.

    15. TD

      ... as you get older, the ch- the odds of you getting pregnant drop pretty radically.

    16. JR

      Well, th- but this is part of the... I think part of the problem in Western societies is we've told wo- women that being a mother is som- is not as fulfilling as, as working in a Fortune 500 company.

    17. TD

      Right.

    18. JR

      And I don't know any women that are mothers that regret it or, or are un- unhappy. I... M- most of the happiest people I know are, are women with children.

    19. TD

      Yeah.

    20. JR

      Truly.

    21. TD

      Y- they're very happy if that's what they want, and if they're-

    22. JR

      Yes.

    23. TD

      ... very miserable if that's not what they want.

    24. JR

      I'm not saying they all should have children, but it... There's a lot of people... I, I... You know, when you meet a young couple with children, I've never met happier people, personally-

    25. TD

      Yeah.

    26. JR

      ... than that.

    27. TD

      No, that's true. Um, as long as they're getting along and as long as the, the woman actually wanted to have children.

    28. JR

      Yes.

    29. TD

      But there's a lot of women that are, like... There was this lady that I knew back in California that was... It was really sad. Uh, she was, like, uh, super career-oriented and, uh, she had a child that was friend with... Friends with my child, and, uh, she was never home. I mean, she, she would get home at, like, 7:30, 8:00 at night.

    30. JR

      Yeah.

    ‘Who will be your doctor?’: immigration, labor narratives, and AI-safe jobs satire

    1. JR

      Well, not only that. You know, I was talking to my aunt about immigration, who I like, and she, you know, was, was basically going... I said, "You know, I think you also have to pause legal immigration for a b- a, a minute." And she goes, "Well, then who's gonna be your doctor?" 'Cause she has an Indian doctor.

    2. TD

      Oh, boy.

    3. JR

      And I said, "Well, wait a minute."

    4. TD

      That's hilarious.

    5. JR

      I said, "Hold on-"

    6. TD

      That's hilarious.

    7. JR

      I s- That's what she said. She goes, "Well, who's gonna be your doctor?" She's a Boomer aunt sitting at my house in Southampton-

    8. TD

      (laughs)

    9. JR

      ... you know, going, "Well, who's gonna be your doctor?" And I go, "Why are we not training American children to be doctors in America?"

    10. TD

      What'd she say to that?

    11. JR

      She goes, "Well, no one does their homework. I was a teacher for 30 years-

    12. TD

      Oh, God.

    13. JR

      ... and I know that no one does their homework." And I go, "Do you think it's possible that nobody does their homework 'cause we need two incomes to run a house, and kids are left to play video games by themselves, and they're not being parented?" You know? So, I think this idea of, like, we're, we're importing doctors-

    14. TD

      (laughs)

    15. JR

      ... you know what I mean?

    16. TD

      (laughs)

    17. JR

      'Cause this whole idea is like, "Oh, these are jobs Americans won't do." And then they're like, "Well, it's agriculture and stuff." And it's like, okay, you can understand some of that. But then you're like, "Wait a minute. Are you saying Americans don't wanna be doctors?" That's crazy. They don't wanna work in hotels or restaurants. Then you start going, "Well, what jobs can Americans do?" I mean, Marc Andreessen came out, and I don't know if you, you had, have the quote, Jamie. But, like, Marc Andreessen literally was talking about... And I don't have a problem with Marc Andreessen, per se. I think this statement was silly. He said, "Oh, yeah, after AI takes over, like, one of the only jobs that's gonna be okay," I swear to God he said this, "is venture capital." He goes, "That'll be okay, because we'll still need to make judgments about what's a worthy investment strategy."

    18. TD

      How convenient that his-

    19. JR

      Well, yeah.

    20. TD

      ... job will be saved.

    21. JR

      Well, this is the whole thing, right. Yeah, right there. Marc Andreessen says, "One job is mostly safe from AI, uh, venture capitalist." It's just funny to me that-

    22. TD

      That's hilarious.

    23. JR

      ... that this is the direction. If, if immigrants were taking the jobs of Hollywood screenwriters, they would not be celebrating it. If immigrants were taking the job of people at white shoe law firms, they would not be celebrating it. If they were taking the job of investment bankers, they would not be celebrating it.

    24. TD

      Right.

    25. JR

      It's very obvious.

    26. TD

      Yeah.

    27. JR

      It's not anything wrong with the immigrants who come here. Obviously that I would come here too, to take someone's job, because I'd wanna survive.

    28. TD

      It's just a weird argument, like, who's gonna be your doctor? That's a qu- that's a really weird argument.

    29. JR

      It's-

    30. TD

      And it's kind of-

  10. 19:5521:49

    2. JR

      It's a th- it's very racist against whites.

    3. TD

      It is. And it's also weird. You know, it's a weird argument, 'cause it's like all human beings can, uh, of all nationalities and races can do basically every job.

    4. JR

      That's-

    5. TD

      There's people that do it all over the world.

    6. JR

      That's-

    7. TD

      The idea that you need to-

    8. JR

      ... hopefully true.

    9. TD

      Yeah.

    10. JR

      But yes, no I'm kidding. Yes.

    11. TD

      The most racist is, like, who's gonna clean your toilet? Like, we've, we've seen that.

    12. JR

      Well, that was Kelly Osbourne on The View.

    13. TD

      Yeah.

    14. JR

      She's all, "Mr. Trump, who's gonna eat your shit?"

    15. TD

      (laughs)

    16. JR

      "If you don't have immigrants here, who's gonna eat your shit when you shit in a toilet?"

    17. TD

      By the way, is she in the Witness Protection Program? 'Cause she looks like a totally different human being now.

    18. JR

      I don't know what they did. They popped her on some of the Azamps and they threw her in the shed.

  11. 21:4927:20

    Hollywood face swaps: Kelly Osbourne, Kris Jenner, and the ‘new head’ era

    1. TD

      Have you seen, uh, the new alien show that's on the Hulu?

    2. JR

      No, I haven't.

    3. TD

      It's really good. It's an alien show. But one of the things they do, is they, they take, like, a dying person-

    4. JR

      Yeah.

    5. TD

      ... and they download their consciousness-

    6. JR

      Interesting.

    7. TD

      ... into, like, a, a symbiotic organism.

    8. JR

      And they're, i- is this, oh, is this fake, or is it real? Like, are they a real dying person?

    9. TD

      Well-

    10. JR

      Oh, it's a fictional thing.

    11. TD

      ... it's a fictional-

    12. JR

      Okay.

    13. TD

      It's Alien the movie.

    14. JR

      Gotcha.

    15. TD

      Like Ridley Scott, Alien.

    16. JR

      Gotcha.

    17. TD

      Yeah.

    18. JR

      Okay.

    19. TD

      And I wonder if that happened to her.

    20. JR

      Well, for sure. I mean-

    21. TD

      'Cause otherwise, like, how does she look, like-

    22. JR

      That's the problem. You wanna defend Hollywood people sometimes against the QAnon stuff, and then you look at them-

    23. TD

      (laughs)

    24. JR

      ... and you're like, "Oh, God. Can you make it easier for me to say you're not a clone?"

    25. TD

      (laughs)

    26. JR

      Because-

    27. TD

      I mean, these young girls are 23 years old and they have so much plastic surgery, they look like they're 47.

    28. JR

      It's nuts. It's crazy.

    29. TD

      They have Botox already and they're in their 20s.

    30. JR

      And then all the QAnon people are like, "It's because they're not getting enough of the whatever, you know, adrenochrome." And you're like, "No, that's not it." And then you look at their faces, you go, "Oh, shit."

  12. 27:2033:26

    Chasing youth to immortality: transhumanism, billionaire power, WEF surveillance fears

    1. JR

      Some- thing I worry a little bit about a society where people keep chasing youth.

    2. TD

      Yeah.

    3. JR

      My grandfather, my grandmother, old people, wrinkles-

    4. TD

      Yeah.

    5. JR

      ... wisdom. You know, my grandmother was not running around trying to look like her daughter.

    6. TD

      Right.

    7. JR

      I worry a little bit about, and I'm not saying there's anything wrong with cosmetic surgery, and people should look as good as they want. I worry a little bit spiritually, slightly, about where this leads.

    8. TD

      That's a good worry.

    9. JR

      That's all.

    10. TD

      No, that's legitimate, a person-

    11. JR

      I li- and I li- and I'm saying this as someone who likes her new look.

    12. TD

      Yes.

    13. JR

      I think she looks good and I would not tell her to not do it.

    14. TD

      Right.

    15. JR

      I'm just wondering, if someone's 90 and they look 30, I'm a little curious. I guess we're just heading towards everlasting life on Earth?

    16. TD

      Well, it depends on what your focus is.

    17. JR

      Scares me a little.

    18. TD

      So if you're a person that focuses on expanding your consciousness and you're constantly reading and you're absorbing new... and you just wanna have more energy and be youthful, that's great. But if the whole thing you're chasing is, "I want people to wanna fuck me," (smacks lips) that gets weird.

    19. JR

      Well, e- well, not only that, but, of course that, but also, to me, there's something strange about the denial of death, the denial of that life is finite in a physical form, and the idea that you are going to live forever, to me, feels there's gotta be some examination of that.

    20. TD

      Yeah.

    21. JR

      Part of this feels like that a little bit.

    22. TD

      There's a little bit of that.

    23. JR

      Some of these people are trying to live forever and I'm wondering about that.

    24. TD

      Well, they certainly want to stay younger for a lot longer than anybody ever has before. And then you get into the weird realm of a lot of these people that want to do something to the body where it becomes immortal. Right?

    25. JR

      Right. And that, that's very interesting to me. And I, I-

    26. TD

      Transhumanism.

    27. JR

      Yeah. That to me is a little scary. I don't understand. I'm not smart enough to understand it, and I worry about it from many angles.

    28. TD

      Well-

    29. JR

      It gets weird when it's really rich people.

    30. TD

      Right. Right, because when it's really young people (clears throat) and you're like, you wanna stay young forever, so you're 23 and you're getting Botox. Oh, you poor kid.

  13. 33:2640:40

    Peter Thiel’s ‘Antichrist’ lectures and elite eccentricities

    1. TD

      Yeah.

    2. JR

      "... deserve neither." Yeah, I mean, it's true. I just think... You know, uh, you know, Peter Thiel is giving a four-part lecture on the Antichrist.

    3. TD

      Yeah, that seems odd.

    4. JR

      Four part... Well, here's what's really wild to me. Four parts. It's not just one. One lecture on the Antichrist would be insane. This guy's doing a series. He's doing a four-part lecture on the Antichrist, and nobody in his inner orbit went, "Peter, how about one lecture on the Antichrist or no lectures? Not four."

    5. TD

      Well, I don't think he understands the optics.

    6. JR

      He certainly does not.

    7. TD

      Yeah.

    8. JR

      It's- it's- it's odd. Yeah.

    9. TD

      Tickets sold out. (laughs)

    10. JR

      (laughs) Well, of course.

    11. TD

      Well, it's a private, it's a private lecture at a club in San Francisco about the Antichrist. What does he know about the Antichrist? Is he, like-

    12. JR

      I'm guessing a lot.

    13. TD

      Th- uh... If- if you told me there was a movie-

    14. JR

      Yeah.

    15. TD

      ... and there was a guy who played the Antichrist. Zoom in on that image of him.

    16. JR

      Yeah.

    17. TD

      I would say, "Oh, is that him? Is that the Antichrist?"

    18. JR

      This is like me doing a four-part lecture on Long Island racism.

    19. TD

      (laughs)

    20. JR

      (laughs) Just to show everybody, you know, how much I know about it and how scary it is and how we gotta watch out for it, but it's totally not me or anyone I know.

    21. TD

      (laughs)

    22. JR

      It's no one that's ever been in my backyard, but those others... He's a, he's just kind of, uh, you know, leaning in, I guess.

      Well, I just don't understand, like, w- why, what... I would like... Someone saw it. Someone saw one of the lectures that he did on the Antichrist.

    26. JR

      Was it good?

    27. TD

      It might have been Duncan. He said it was boring.

    28. JR

      It's of course gonna be boring.

    29. TD

      But I don't understand. Like, what is he doing?

    30. JR

      He's trying to prove he's not the Antichrist.

    Epstein, kompromat, and political selection: from DC Madam to ‘compromised’ leaders

    1. JR

      It's not a threat. Now, these big Hollywood types that go, "I'm gonna blow the whistle on whatever the hell's going on." They go, "Bye-bye."

    2. TD

      Yeah.

    3. JR

      You know what I mean? Or a mainstream journalist who's like, "I'm gonna write an article about something, and you know, it's gonna lead to a congressional investigation."

    4. TD

      Yeah.

    5. JR

      They go, "Bye-bye."

    6. TD

      Yeah. It's when you actually create problems, not when you're just a part of the right-wing conspiracy ecosphere.

    7. JR

      Yeah, 'cause they can just dismiss you-

    8. TD

      Yeah.

    9. JR

      ... as a crank, and then you've written-

    10. TD

      Yeah.

    11. JR

      ... volumes of this book, and no one cares. Like, and I... And by the way, I'm not saying it's not a great book. I'm saying it's not moving the needle for them. If you have a hard drive, uh, with something on it, a U- USB, if somebody gives you, you know... If you have something that could put them in jail-

    12. TD

      Yeah.

    13. JR

      ... you're dead.

    14. TD

      So, how is Anthony Weiner still alive?

    15. JR

      Anthony Weiner's still alive because... I believe there's two possibilities. Number one, there's a dead man switch somewhere.

    16. TD

      Right.

    17. JR

      Meaning that there's something somewhere.

    18. TD

      You know the story about his laptop with the cops that saw it?

    19. JR

      And the c- Supposedly, they're all dead?

    20. TD

      Yeah.

    21. JR

      Yeah.

    22. TD

      A bunch of them.

    23. JR

      Crazy.

    24. TD

      Yeah. How many cops are dead?

    25. NA

      I'm looking.

    26. TD

      Google that. And... But the other thing is that they said what they saw-

    27. JR

      Yeah.

    28. TD

      ... was so horrific-

    29. JR

      Then that's... They... Yeah.

    30. TD

      ... and like some of them took their own lives.

    Platform politics and campaign theater: Kamala anecdotes, NGO money, Newsom as ‘internet troll’

    1. TD

      Well, thank God the NELK Boys got to the bottom of everything.

    2. JR

      They got to the bottom of it and, you know, it was a brilliant... I didn't know how he felt about (laughs) Burger King. I never knew and now I do. Um, well, listen, we have these shows. Everybody has a platform. Everybody wants to be on these shows and everybody has a line of bullshit. We all... We know. It's the way it is.

    3. TD

      Yes.

    4. JR

      It's the way it is. It's unavoidable. It's not... You can't avoid it. People get mad. "You s- you talked to who?" Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's what it is. You're listening to the thing.... maybe I do a great job, maybe I do a okay job, maybe I do a bad job. I don't know. But you're the person listening. You can choose to like it, dislike it. You can say, "That guy's full of shit." You can say, "I agree with him there, but I don't agree with him there." You could say, "I distrust this person." You could say, "He makes my spidey senses go off." Those are all avail- you can have any of those thoughts. You know?

    5. TD

      And you could also have the thought that you shouldn't be talking to that person.

    6. JR

      You can also have the thought that you shouldn't be talking to that person.

    7. TD

      Yeah, when people have that thought with me-

    8. JR

      And that's fair.

    9. TD

      ... and, or that I don't push back hard enough, or... You're allowed to think all those things. Everybody's allowed to have their own opinions on all this shit.

    10. JR

      Everyone's allowed. Everyone's allowed.

    11. TD

      Um, but, you know, we're living in the wildest fucking time.

    12. JR

      This is the wildest time probably that, that I can remember. I'm sure there's other wilder times. Well-

    13. TD

      I think this is globally the wildest time ever, because there's never been a connection like this with everybody and everything.

    14. JR

      A guy who's perpetuating an ethnic cleansing going on the podcast of, uh, prank video influencers to discuss Burger King is one of the craziest things I've seen in my life.

    15. TD

      You know, and what's al-

    16. JR

      But that's crazy.

    17. TD

      Also, wasn't there, like, pre-prepared-

    18. JR

      And it's th-

    19. TD

      ... questions that they had-

    20. JR

      They were pre-

    21. TD

      ... to stick to?

    22. JR

      Number one, there were pre-pre-pre-pre-prepared questions. Number two, Burger King does suck. Number three-

    23. TD

      I liked them when I was a kid.

    24. JR

      They fell off.

    25. TD

      I liked the whole flame broiled.

    26. JR

      Wendy's fell off. It was all great.

    27. TD

      Wendy's fell off? Since when?

    28. JR

      Wendy's has fallen off so hard. In the '90s, it was one of the best restaurants in the country.

    29. TD

      But don't they still use fresh not frozen, or is that bullshit now?

    30. JR

      You know, everybody's full of shit. I don't know. It's not good. It's not the same.

    2028 chessboard: Trump succession, JD Vance doubts, MTG spectacle, AOC donor pressures

    1. TD

      This is the thing, like, we're, we are now entering into 2026, okay? So, we only have four years betw- from 2024 to 2028. It's really only two years, you know? Because it's like everybody has to get accustomed to these people.

    2. JR

      Yeah.

    3. TD

      They have to be in the public eye. It's not like someone's gonna run for president within the last six months and they're gonna win.

    4. JR

      Right.

    5. TD

      Y- you need someone who's out there for minimum of 24 months.

    6. JR

      Yes.

    7. TD

      So, who else?

    8. JR

      There's g-

    9. TD

      We're in 2026, right? So we have two years left.

    10. JR

      Trump.

    11. TD

      So who?

    12. JR

      Yeah, it's him. It's Gavin. It's him.

    13. TD

      It has to be.

    14. JR

      Now, on the right, there's going to be a power struggle, and either Trump will live through his term ... Let's hope he does, but he's 80, so you never know, but he's healthy enough right now.

    15. TD

      Allegedly healthy enough.

    16. JR

      Allegedly healthy enough.

    17. TD

      Yeah.

    18. JR

      If he lives through his term and he knights somebody, whether it's JD or whoever, that will be the person. There is a world in which he doesn't knight anyone, and there is a real power struggle between different factions of that party.

    19. TD

      Well, who, what are the factions?

    20. JR

      You have-

    21. TD

      So you have JD-

    22. JR

      You have JD.

    23. TD

      ... who's, who's the vice president, who's the obvious.

    24. JR

      The obvious.

    25. TD

      And then the problem with Ron DeSantis is he wore stilts.

    26. JR

      Ron DeSantis is a cop energy. He has a guy that pulled you over energy, and you go, "Was it really 85?" He's a prick. No one likes him. Everyone ... He's offends everyone. I knew a bunch of ... I- I know a friend who's in finance. A bunch of hedge fund guys went down to Florida. This was in, like, the throes of the campaign. He ended up insulting all of them. He's dismissive of people. He doesn't have it.

    27. TD

      Hmm. Hmm.

    28. JR

      The question is Vance, who's smart, does Vance have it? There's doubts, real doubts that if he has it or not. I like him as a guy. There's doubts. I'm not saying he doesn't have it.

    29. TD

      What are the, what are the doubts?

    30. JR

      That he doesn't have it. He doesn't have the charisma. He's stiff as a board. He's a klutz. He dropped a trophy. He's not articulate enough. He doesn't, he doesn't have it. People-

    Weather modification and ‘space lasers’: conspiracy-as-parody meets real cloud seeding

    1. JR

      (laughs)

    2. NA

      (laughs)

    3. JR

      Now she says, "The United States deserves this type of defense for our southern border." Okay, I don't think Jewish space lasers did that, but there was a real concern with the wildfires of Ontario. Yes.

    4. TD

      That so many of them started simultaneously over a large distance that it is almost impossible that this was not some sort of a concerted effort to start this fire. And then there was the question, were they experimenting with some sort of space or satellite-based-

    5. JR

      That got away from them.

    6. TD

      ... energy weapon?

    7. JR

      Well, what about these floods-

    8. TD

      I don't even know if it got away from them because it's conveniently-

    9. JR

      You know, these floods in-

    10. TD

      ... in the middle of the woods.

    11. JR

      What about these floods in Texas?

    12. TD

      What about them?

    13. JR

      With the cloud seeding.

    14. TD

      Yeah.

    15. JR

      This is a problem.

    16. TD

      Well, they were cloud seeding-

    17. JR

      They're cloud seeding.

    18. TD

      ... just a few days before that.

    19. JR

      That's a problem.

    20. TD

      Yeah.

    21. JR

      That's a problem.

    22. TD

      Well, that's also the problem that happened in Abu Dhabi, or no, Dubai.

    23. JR

      That's right.

    24. TD

      In Dubai, which where they openly admit that this is a cloud s-

    25. JR

      They're manipulating the weather.

    26. TD

      Yes.

    27. JR

      All these people are manipulating the weather.

    28. TD

      Where you're going, in Abu Dhabi, they do it once a week.

    29. JR

      Yeah.

    30. TD

      Hopefully you'll get there on a rainy day.
