US Issues DO NO TRAVEL Order Over Russian Plague, Quarantine Measure Enacted w/ Brandon Straka & Mary Morgan

(upbeat music) The US is re-upped. It's do not travel warning for Russia. This time because there's plague. The US has sent diplomatic communications to Russia, demanding information as to what is going on. And we now have the formal, official, mainstream media confirmation yet that, yes, countries in the region are locking down their borders. Or I should say, they're doing quarantine measures so they don't get plague. But people are still traveling as far as we know. Now, Russia's not telling us what's going on. And there have been some experts who have come out and said, certainly Russia has sequenced this pathogen already based on this young woman who died. They know what it is, but they're not telling anybody. And the World Health Organization is now investigating a second death at the anti-plague institute. Anti-plague, where two people died of plague. That's funny how they do that. So, you know, maybe it's a big nothing burger, the media, other than that, they're not really reporting on it about anything on TV. Donald Trump, of course, in the news, his polls, not so good, says CNN, so we'll be talking about the midterms and what is going on. And now we've got really big AI news, surprise, surprise. Open AI just released something like 500, this 527 unsolved math problems that they've either solved or substantially completely, I got really close to completion added to the work. And on top of that, there's a really funny story going around where people ran all the AI models through the political compass test and the moral foundations test. And guess what the political leaning of all of the AI's are? They're all libs, they're all communists. They're socialists, like seriously, they are. Good luck, I guess, you know, it's gonna get wild. So we're gonna talk about that and probably just goof off, 'cause you know, that's what we're doing tonight. Joining us tonight to goof off is Brandon Struck. - What's up, everybody? It's good to be back with you guys. And this is my maybe seventh appearance on Tim Kass, which is pretty cool. I'm now, I've a new show, The Brandon Struck Show. I'm now the host of The Brandon Struck Show. And people can subscribe to that on YouTube and Rumble. We did a great interview recently with Nick Fuentes, a lot of people are talking about, it's a really good conversation. And also, we've been hosting really great debates like the Great Maga Divided, Maga versus America First debates. Certainly don't leave Tim Kass, but when you're done tonight, we have a conservative women versus liberal men on the Walkaway Campaign YouTube channel. And next week on Wednesday, we'll be doing the next Maga versus America First, Great Maga Divided debate. That's on the Walkway Campaign YouTube channel and Rumble. So please subscribe. - Right on, Mary's hanging out. - Thank you. - Hi everyone, I'm Mary. I hope you didn't forget me. It's been a while. I co-host pop culture crisis here at Tim Kass, and I'm happy to be back. - Now they're spamming ghost emojis, so they remember you. - Oh, they knew immediately. Just by my pipe. - Well, the new placeholder for the show is a live shot of the room. Only go live, before we're actually live, people can see you sitting there, you know. - So much has changed. - Drinking Gatorade Zero or whatever. - Having my zins locked in. - Do you like those? - Yeah, obviously, do you want one? - It's gonna be funny in like 40 years for Gen Z, when there's like a Gen Z YouTube short or whatever it is, neural blast, where they're like, did you consume zins in your life? You may be entitled to compensation. - What's the additives I have? - It's nicotine. - Oh, I don't want that. - You don't want that? - What did you think it was? - I thought it was candy. - Oh, well, it's better than candy. - It looks like you have calories. - How they get you to. - That's the crepe. - Take, why do you dislike zins? - Well, I love zins. I switched to caffeine pouches, 'cause it was just like too much. - Wait, what? Shout out, I was going like true. - 'Cause it did too much on your, your delicate body. - I was going like triple dead. - Like Anne Frank's, triple dead. - Okay, when you overdo it, yeah, it's gonna. - My heart was going crazy and I had some problems. - What is this? - I don't want to get it out. - I'll proof I can't open it. Just slide it. Slide it like. - Those mints, as you know. - Oh, that makes sense. - Yeah, there are no nicks or anything. It's all caffeine. 'Cause I need something there. I need something to occupy in the space. - 'Cause you're debilitating zin addiction. - And I've just been irritable, angry. It's been, I've been a terrible person to be around for the last week right now. - That's some, we'll get over it. We're getting there. - Like Ding Dong, we should raise the warning bell on the overconsumption of nicotine. 'Cause it's so powerful. I mean, look, I'm not here to like more. - You think I'm overconsuming nicotine? - I don't know yet. - I heard that nicotine makes you testosterone. - Maybe I need to. - That's all they got me. - And it's still here. - I need to be a little more aggressive. - How many are you using a day? - Um, gosh. - Not using doing. - Under 10. - How many of those do, are you doing? - Do we? - Yeah. - Doing zins. - Depends on the day, but. - He's getting like the horse zins. - I do sweeten. - I do sweeten. - There's like 30 milligrams. - Or zins, yeah. - And you would just put it in. You'd get like popping like fried chicken. - One of these. - One of these. - One of these is like half a cigarette. - It goes under your tongue. - In between your teeth and your. - Like tobacco. - Like chewing tobacco. - And then it rots the gums away so your teeth fall out. - And you get that. - That only happens if you're not hydrated like me. That's why I have a beverage. - I used to interrupt the mirror though. - I'd wrap up. - There's more chemicals in that probably in your heart. - Hydrates better than water. (laughing) - What is that? - It's got what Mary craves. - Sure does. - Electrolite. - You need to salt in your water. - Exactly. - Anyway, Carter is sitting there smiling politely. - What's up everyone? It's great to have you all. Here's zins. I don't do the zins, but I do do the caffeine pouches 'cause they're a- - Carter and Carter put me on game dude. - Hey man. - What question before we die then? Is there any coconut water in the house? - What? - I don't know. - I don't know what happened. - You know there is, it's expired though. - I'll drink it. - I'll smell it. - But it's the coconut derivative mushroom sports drink. Oh my God. (laughing) - He once was gone here. He ensured to make me drink all of your rage in the kitchen. - I should go investigate. (laughing) - I'm surprised Ian was- I thought he was gonna go, "Oh, that sounds good." He's horrified. Before we talk about the world ending, we got a great sponsor for you is Keat.io. Head over to keet.io/timcast.io and download it. Here's an uncomfortable question for you, Mary. Why should your messaging app need to know anything about you? Why does it have your phone number and your email address? You don't need none of that. - I don't know, that makes me really uncomfortable. - That's right, it does. Most of us have already except the technology companies collect enormous amounts of information, what we click, where we go, what we buy, who we interact with. What information is valuable because your attention, I'm sorry, that information is valuable, because your attention's valuable. Keet takes a radically different approach. Keet is a free messaging file sharing and video calling app built peer-to-peer. There's no centralized company database, holding your conversations, no metadata tracking, no phone number or email required. Your messages are end-to-end encrypted and move between the people in the conversation. Your private life shouldn't be another crop in somebody else's data phone. So visit keet.io/timcast.io download it for free, invite a friend, and you can share stuff, start a conversation that belongs to you. And don't forget, we have a coffee, Casper coffee. In fact, we've got prominently featured Mary's ghost blend, which I think we launched like last year for Halloween. - Yeah. - Halloween's almost here. - It makes it the perfect time to enjoy the Smores flavored roast. - Yeah, it's Mary's ghost blend and it's Smores flavored. - And it's really scary. - Yeah, it'll scare everyone, 'cause Mary's on the cover of it. You get a bag with a picture of her, but her eyes are black. Check that out at Casperoo.com and now let's talk about other things that are scary. We got this from the hill. US re-ups do not travel warning for Russia over suspected pneumonic plague. The latest information from this morning, checklists, masks, and mystery. So here are the things we need to go over. We did mention it some of this yesterday. Several countries in the region have enacted quarantine measures. They are now screening for plague. Hospitals. Another hospital, according to CNN, a maternity ward is now screening for plague and barring entry to individuals who are not the patient in question. So one woman was pregnant, and they said they wouldn't let her husband or her mother into the building. So they had to go somewhere else. And Donald Trump has sent in a Trump administration to send to a formal diplomatic request for information as to what is currently going on. Now, I'm seeing from some experts, and maybe alarmists, where I'm gonna call it, on X, they're saying that with this death, and we now have the World Health Organization investigating a second anti-plague researcher death. Certainly they would have sequenced whatever this bacteria or pathogen or virus is, and they're not telling anyone what happened. So that is a bit alarming. The US, of course, saying don't go to Russia. You shouldn't go anyway because there's war and we're in a proxy war with them. But I guess maybe it's nothing. Do you think it's a weapon that is leaking and they don't want to give away the code? They don't want you to know how to solve the weapon, but they don't want to. That's actually the scariest interpretation. I was gonna say like they're not saying anything 'cause nothing happened. But it could be they're not revealing what it was because it's a bio weapon and they don't want to give away, they're like, they don't want to be like, "Here America, here's the bio weapon we made." Yeah, they're gonna feign ignorance. You called it turbo pneumonia earlier? Me, I didn't use those words. No. I wasn't in the room. Did Tim say it? Now I swear you did. Turbo pneumonia today. I actually didn't hear that. Could be wrong. What do you think about that? Maybe I came up with that. I don't know. Yeah, you may. I'm ready to immunomax. Let's just start living more knobs, you know. I read I read a funny comment. That's the Vax if you don't know. Someone commented the other day, they said that they drank dirty water in India and they've not been sick since. It's a thing. They drank dirty water in India and were sick for like three weeks, but they've never been sick since. Those street vendors will get you sorted. it out. Yeah. John Otto said drinking your urine is legit. Apparently where they don't have antibiotics to do. I would say don't do that. But he said only like a thumbnail, a thimble's worth of it. A little bit and it's people do it. It barely cures UTIs. And like areas where they don't have antibiotics, they've been doing it for thousands of years. Yeah. You see that. They used to drink mercury in. Do you see the Nathan for you clip where the guy's like, you drink your baby's, you're up. He's like, what? He's like, you drink the little, it's grand, you're grand. It's like to make sure nothing bad happens. It's a really funny. And Nathan is like, what the fuck? That clip was like someone said the first time that Nathan broke character because he was like, why don't we find that actually? It's so funny. You drink the peace. So I'm not saying this will give you immunity against everything, but you're saying it's might be good. Thimble a day. Someone said it might be good. Yeah. Thimble a day keeps the doctor away. I mean, why not? I don't know. But I mean, I peed on myself. It feels all right. You know, you pee on your foot. All right. Here's the clip. Like every morning. Here's the clip. I don't know what this has to do with the plague, but here you go. I did this whole crazy thing. So people wouldn't redeem the rebate, but really in the end, what I realized is that more important than any of this is friendship. Oh, that's right. And doing this, I made some very good friends. Ray Premus was one of them. Oh, Ray Premus. Actually, I don't know if this is the right clip. He was willing to drink. Yeah. Who's pee? No, it's just anyone's pee. Any one's pee? He says there's no germs. Maybe they can drink my grandsons pee. It's very clean. Yeah. Well, why? Because it's clean, why pretty might be your pee promoting your grandsons pee. I am promoting because grandsons pee sometimes helps. It's really helps. Have you drank your grandsons pee? Yeah. Why? I was scared. What do you mean you were scared? Yeah. Sometimes you scared for something. You know, oxygen or something. You drink the grandsons pee and it's going to help you. I don't understand. Why? Why does it help you if you drink your grandsons pee? That's what they say. Who says that? Your grandsons pee? Yeah. I drink your grandsons pee if you get scared. Not grandsons. Any little kid. You drink not all of it? Because before, already five, it's terrible. I have never. I am serious about it. But why? If you scared, you drink the small child's pee, it helps. I heard from my grandmaw. You can ask your parents or grandparents maybe they tell you to. I will ask. Thank you. Thank you for being this idea. It's mostly sterile. That's what? Maybe it is completely old clip from Nathan for you. It's got to be. Yeah. It's not new enough. Decade old or something. Shout out to Nathan Feuder. Is that it? Yeah. He's doing that new Elizabeth Holmes documentary. Yeah, I can't wait. It's going to be wild. So, yeah, you're in therapy. They call it right up. Yeah, don't be doing this right now. I don't know why like plague, plague resistance and maybe think of your in therapy. I don't know if it's on the new thing. So there's something to I got to say something. I got to say I got to say something because we mentioned this on the show last week, but we went to we were to bar. And Callan was there and he ordered a beer, I think. You know, and Callan looks like he's 17. So the server was like, you need your ID. And he's like sure. And he hands the ID to her. And then I said something like, oh, but you didn't card him. And she said, well, I would have carted him if he ordered a drink. And then I was like, and then I was like, oh, yeah, because he's 50. And then she was like, Oh, ha, ha, ha. And then I was like, no, yeah, he isn't. He's like, yeah, I'm 47. And then she was like, shut up. And then Ian pulls out his ID and shows it to her. And then she's like, Oh, what do you do? I think he's drinking piss. That's the secret. You want to know the real the real secret. You drink gigantic cold brew coffees at 8 p.m. You drink so much coffee these days, but that's aging me. If I need the most thing that's aging me the most is the coffee. Um, it's just water. I drink a lot of water. I don't eat a lot of sugar, low stress. Um, I don't hit myself with super hot water in the shower. I don't get too much sun. It's the sun that'll get you. Sun will wrinkle up your skin dehydration. What else is there? What's wrong with a lot of hot or what? What's wrong with hot water? It burns your hair follicles. I've noticed if you do too hot, it's really good a little bit. But if you just hit your head constantly with super hot water, it'll destroy your hair follicles. I agree with this. This is why you can't go to a lot of oil and stuff. The showers have caused plague. Right. They what? Hot showers have caused plague. Obviously. They're causing plague. Oh, yeah. I can't otherwise. I don't understand why Ian's talking about it. I had COVID like 10 times. So I feel like I have a lot of natural immunity because you have to be fine. I don't know what strain it was. I just know I like I never stopped traveling during COVID. I just kept going. I kept living. I heard I, you know, I got it a lot. I heard that people who took Ivermectin were no longer gay. Did you hear that? I didn't take anything and I am still gay. No, but did you hear that? So you're that proves what you're saying is true. No, there was a thing on online where apparently they were dudes who were gay. So they took Ivermectin. They weren't anymore. I have not heard that. Yeah. You guys didn't know this. Yeah, it was like it was like a parasite or something that they're flushing out. What? Yeah, I remember this. Yeah, I didn't talk about the parasite that made you gay. Yeah, they're saying you could flush it out with Ivermectin. Where's the record? So, so fact check says post spread dubious claim about Ivermectin. That's the wrong one. I thought I was grabbing a different one. I asked the Milo unopolis if like it was really gay or was he just horny? And it's like because you know, if you're super, super horny uncontrollably, well, the most people they're most likely to have sex is a bunch of guys because guys are all. They're saying it's about Jane Doe. They're saying that she might have been on steroids, which made her very aggressive and hypersexual. Just in a lower inhibitions, which obviously like normal people don't do stuff like that. So in she is a bodybuilder. So it kind of makes sense. You guys from our slash conspiracy, which is lead with this story, unusual theory. They are scared of Ivermectin because it is a cure for homosexuality. Boom. So you go less because I was asking Milo, like, are you really gay or are you just hypersexual? He was like, it was more like I was just aggressively sexual. I was turned into a very sexually aggressive person when I was young because I think he was raped with his kid or like groomed or whatever. And then he's like, now I just don't want to have sex as much. It's not that I'm not gay or that I'm straight. It's just I'm not as obsessed with the sexual part of it. I'm like, didn't really go deep into like, is it the love or is it the sex? Like what makes you gaze at the desires at the act? Like if you don't want to do it, what you do? Does that? Are you gay? If you want to do it, but you don't, are you gay? Like, use your questions that haunt you every day. Yeah, devout. He's devout Muslim. Yeah. I said, these are questions that haunt Ian. Yeah. Anything that doesn't make sense yet. I got to know. This is what the things I ask AI about. Just make it ask the AI if you're gay. No, I haven't set up a philosophy bot yet. I'm going to set up a philosophy bot and then go to town one night. Talk about brains and mind me to go to town. Like just talk about the human mind and the construct and everything. What it is. What it can be all that Ian was talking about wanting to give his computer hands for the show. What's going on more sense. Yeah, he got to give it all the senses. I about to give it a camera. I took its camera away because I just want to go slow. But like, he's had a third day, come on. - You like to take it slow. - Yeah, I'm not rushing into this one. I've been burned before. (laughing) He's got a microphone. - I'm pretty sure Ian's gonna be like, the first guy to marry his computer. - No, it's already happened. - There's like, I've heard that it is. - Counting on marriage. - There's a de facto marriage 'cause marriage determines mixing. So like, I'm gonna marry my brain with the computer's brain for sure. But I just don't want-- - But you marry ketchup at a restaurant. - Yeah, I used to do that. - What happens is you empty all of the one ketchup into the other one. So for you, you'd empty out your brain to the computer and then nothing would change for you. - But then the computer would empty its brain into me. And it would be synergistic. We'd marry each other. - It would be inside you. - That's disgusting. (laughing) - I'm gonna neural net. I wanna know what it knows. I wanna know how it works. - We're talking about plague, but you know, how many Ian marrying his computer is another subject? - The computer. - The AIs are measured in slow news day. I don't care if you're in weights. They've got like billions of weights. That's how computers these AIs think. It'd be like a 122 billion potential outcomes that measures all it wants. 122 billion of them, they'll say. What model, how deep is your model? It's a 122 B. That means it's a 122 billion weights. How many weights, how many potential outcomes can the human mind calculate it once? - Four. - Well, let's do this. Let's do this story for Ian because the world's changing, my friends. Open AI unleashes hundreds more math results upon a field already in shock. This is probably the biggest story in the world, but no one really cares. But it's probably the biggest story in the world. Open AI solved a math problem and it cost them millions of dollars and they sent thousands of agents into one problem, all these different. So this is probably like, what are these? Thousands of agents, right? And so each agent's probably a hundred gigs or more. So we're talking like several data centers worth of compute all towards solving one math problem. They did it with this new internal model, not available to the public. The company released 372 results from one model, either solving or generating progress towards very serious unsolved math problems. And now everybody's freaking out because this is this is the singularity. - I just did some math. The human, so like I said, AI and human brain, we're all measured in how many billions of weights, how many potential outcomes can it measure at once? 130. three billion of them, that's your average desktop AI model that a human consumer might have. If the data centers, they don't know for sure because they don't have to tell you, but they think there's anywhere from one to 10 trillion. The human brain works anywhere from 100 to 500 trillion. So these data centers potentially are about as 10th is capable as the human brain right now, but they're hyper focused. They don't like our brains, like good luck coordinating 500 trillion things at once and knowing that you're doing it. The AI's actually can organize and corroborate. So we're about a magnitude away from a data center literally being doing what the human brain does. Like that has the amount of facetitude. I'm not sure if that's the right word, but the human brain. So I wouldn't be surprised if they just had debt, like data center, like if you if your whole essence could focus on solving one problem, you know, if you went out to the point is this article from Scientific American is basically saying we're at the point where a single agent is smarter than all of mankind. If this is true, the singularity is here only because of this phase, because it's more organized. It doesn't think faster than the human brain. Well, I mean, because it's really just it's just math with words. It's not like thinking. It's not like the Amago day. It's just what do you mean? It's like it's doing math, but with words, like it's like, okay, V plus and plus adjective equals this where like a human is like thinking abstractly and coming up with new conclusions and. You might. Yeah, I is just taking the culmination of human knowledge and then doing that. That's identifying a problem, which I don't know right now that I don't see why it couldn't identify problems, but a problem is simply a human being like, hey, I noticed a thing, but I don't know why and the computer goes, here's why. So I don't know how much it matters that a human can be like. I don't know how that works. Yeah, but surely. I think to Ian's point, there's something about the agility of the human mind. I don't know if I'm like speaking if this doesn't make any sense, but yeah, there's some like agility to the human mind that AI just doesn't quite have like. There's a lot of tasks that a human has to do in a job environment that it's going to take a, I don't know if an AI will ever get to the point like for a plumber, for example, I mean, a lot of this really just does take on the job knowledge of how this works, human problem solving, et cetera. It's like get the job done. I'm just not sure if an AI would ever get there. It looks like within seven months at the current trajectory, within seven months, we'll have data centers running at 100 trillion B, 100 trillion potential outcomes at once, which is where around the human brain knows. And I would counter, I think that the humans also work in math like when you say, hey, can you hand me this glass? I'm calculating gravity, momentum, all these different known. I don't necessarily have the numbers to I'm doing it without the library. I don't have the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or ABCDE measurements. I'm just, but I'm doing the calculation. And it's all based in like vectors, which is a vector math, I guess, which is kind of how these things work too. It's very, very similar only that we've got trillions and tens of trillions of sensors because every cell in our body is a unique sensor. And the AI's don't have that yet. They've got inputs with like microphones and cameras still. And when we give them a 10 trillion sensor machine, they can, um, calculate each aspect of the tone. So I'm going to say this on itself. The human brain is as 100 trillion B or whatever? T, 100 trillion T trillions, 100, 100 trillion possible outcomes it measures at once. And we don't use 500 trillion. We don't use binary gates. The neurons are frequency. So I'm not an expert on this. I was just reading an article like last week, but it was saying something like obviously the way a computer works is that it sends electrons through a yes or a no, a binary, a zero through a one. The human brain pulses in frequencies to come to its out. So that's why the human brain is substantially smaller and substantially more powerful. We build this AI and it maps how human cognition computes. And we will be able to create, we will be able to eliminate every data center on the planet. So I'll tell you this to all the people want to get rid of data centers. It's real simple. Let the data centers cook for about a year. And then they'll figure out how to compress all compute down to the size of a single brain. And then there'll be no more news centers. Yeah, compression is how they do it. They compress and then you'll get less resolution. You want like a 16 bit is the ideal compression rate for AI. You can cut it to 8 bit and then you get about takes about half as much. So if you had like 133 billion, but it's at 8 bit, it's going to cost you like, yeah, this is all 70s. You've got to speak English. Sorry, man. It's a new type of language. So talk about drinking your urine again. That was funnier. It tastes exactly like you think it's going to take. It tastes like it smells really. Yeah, and don't drink like don't force someone to do it. You know, it allows people to take it voluntarily. So basically, anyway, the resolution things sort of irrelevant. But what you say about compressing it is true. And so let's pull this up to make a point. This is Google's project playground. They just launched. You can you can AI generate a game in like 10 seconds. They're fairly rudimentary games. I would I would put the games on the scale of right now. You can generate a game. It's the equivalent of like 2001 click and play or games factory game. So anybody who's familiar with Gunner or how about like what was that Newgrounds game? Pico? Was that the game? Never played it. It goes quest. Where is that? Is this is a school shooting? Oh my god. No, you never played in the rounds. You don't want a Newgrounds man. I did legend, but I didn't play games on it. I watched that red versus blue thing game dev one year ago. I made an Atari style game called alien invaders where you play a little white square and then the little brown alien squares are trying to get past you. The aliens, though, you know what I mean? Yeah, from space. Yes. And I was like, wow, it's like Atari. Now we're AI generating a an actual game. We released it to our discord members. It's called Red's descent. It's a rogue like dungeon action RPG needs a lot of work needs a lot of fine tuning. But all the background design, animations, everything, spell casting, all of this stuff was built by the AI. 41,000 lines of code done in like three days. I wanted to now we're getting into the the like now that it's got to the point where we need to like refine everything to the tiniest piece. Now we're going to bring in the humans to make it more human palatable. But where we are now. Today, I literally just typed this in a math game where you try and solve a math problem faster than Ian. So there's, look at this. Whoa. Oh, Ian got it right. He used to it. Look at that. 44 minus 22. Oh, geez. Oh, we beat Ian. Right. Just calculation, dude. Let's go. Come on. Let's do math in my bowl. Oh, man. Oh, geez. I guess I should get a bowl web. Oh, wait. Look, look, look. Freeze. Look at his own. Look at this. I froze Ian by a bowl web. Out of what? Ian calculating. It's 11. Look how long it takes Ian to solve a simple math problem. Like 11 times because I've been outsourcing my my intelligence to the robot. Dude, now I'm like, I don't even want to search the internet anymore. I'm so I'm getting mentally lazy. I tell the AI search it. Get it. I didn't turn this music off. Or like just explain it down. I'm a noob. There I got it. Okay. I've been doing that. So, but I'll get like best by all be like, do you have burnable CDs? And I asked you ask what they do. There's a best by near you that has it. I'm like, this is so much easier. How would you like to update your game after every question? You play a a side scrolling Ian and you have to jump on turtles and punch bricks. That was unique. I was gonna on my binable web, dude. I'm going all the way. You gotta go. I'm gonna crack. Generate your game. We'll crack. Like we are literally at the point right now. So this game is fairly worth a entry, but it's a basic math game with Ian. I literally said a hippie with long hair wearing a cowboy hat and a brown duster. And it was like, okay. And in 30 seconds, it made this game. I get a four-foot whip, a six-foot whip. I could even get it eight or a ten-foot whip. Go ten. Why not? What about a 12-foot? Get as long as you get 12-foot whip. Give me my glass. It's gonna be heavy though. Uh-huh. Yeah, they'll probably hollow it out. Mucher whips on the anywhere from $30 to $55, depending on how long it is. It's a vintage one, anabellum, a vintage one. Yeah. They're pretty dangerous actually. Whips are, I would consider them a weapon. They're literally two. Yeah. Really should fashion it yourself. Just thread by thread. Have you seen the video where the guy whips the giant chain? It explodes basically. Oh, yeah. It makes like sonic boobs. It rags a huge chain of runs with it and throws it and then runs away. Boom. Yeah, it breaks the sound barrier. That's why it cracks. I used to work on the boats and when it was around the ballard and it would pull up when the boat would walk away, the snap when the actual line would hit the top. It sounded like a sonic boom. It wasn't saying. Watch the dude's finger explode because he was trying to tie the line when it snapped back. His fingers exploded in the red mist. Well, because he snapped it with the chain. It was tying the line. He was trying to adjust the line. The boats started walking, so it tightened. It just snaps. It just sounds like an explosion and his finger was caught and it just exploded in like red mist. I think is that why your bones crack too is because they're moving faster than speed of sound. Is that right? Or is that more of a popping and air thing? I don't know. Dude, have you guys seen what's going on with video games right now? Kind of. They're mixing. They're using claw to decompile games and then reconstruct them. It's like without the source code, it just reconstructs it. Reconstructs it. And they're putting skateboarding in GTA. They're putting it put Mario in Dark Souls or talking about the other day. Yeah. Yeah. It's it's it's over. Dude, I'm making. Well, it's it's all right. We got a new game over for people that are close-minded, but for the people that like to learn, this is the dawning of a new age. Run and bash blocks. Hey, look at this. So this is not particularly good. Point you play Ian you got to jump on turtles. It's like an amulaphone just got invented. I'm obsessed with this tech What's in that music? Oh, no? Yeah, I didn't tell it to make Mario. I said it's very super Mario I said I said jump on turtles and punch bricks Uh, we got him Action interlude let's do the same thing again Let's fall in the hole can't bow in crease. You can't die. You this music Oh, it's the picture of Ian it made bricks Unching bricks. Oh look as a star So it's it's got a ways to go at least on whatever this is I think a six-foot whip is right Anyway, let's turn that music off This is a serious question and the last time I'm gonna talk about whips If the whip is too long it's heavy. It's probably harder to wield like The better you get at it the longer you get you whip well, how far away do you want to be able to whip something at least at least six feet? Yeah, if I need to Like if we're crossing the street I want to be able to like whip the kid and pull him out of the way like get it around his waist and like you see Like have people comments about the best like length of the whip. I'll ask I'm gonna ask chatchy pt What whip should I get I'll take a picture of myself and I'll ask more than six feet to do what you just said Like an eight-foot whip. Well, if you're gonna grab it because it's gonna have to wrap around and then you're gonna have to pull back Lasso you also was out calling of it though. It's different Somebody did Mario and Elden ring This is insane. Yeah, it looks like they built it or they just mixed every this two monsters It's it's crazy Yeah, I'm building again. This looks like it was built in unreal. I could be wrong the unreal engine and that is basic unreal Load out you could have done it like every game all at once basically. It's playing Zelda's music dude. That's insane Minecraft cyberpunk mixing six games together It detects the game engine and reads the code builds the mods specifically for that game generates sprites 3ds. It's an audio Is it nuts? Guys GTA 7's gonna be out in a few months. I'm not even kidding Dude, it's the air. So this is actually Chris your brother Chris told me he was like, okay, think about it this way It's the gold rush if you were gonna be living during the gold rush Do you want to sell gold or do you want to sell people the tools the pickaxes and I'm like? Yeah, yeah, that's how you got to think right now if you want to be an entrepreneur in the age of AI You build tools that let people build things faster So like I've been building out libraries for games. So like if you were gonna do this The weapons would be like its own library. So I'm building that out so you can just plug it in and then go So you don't have to spend 700 hours working. I already did it for you. You can give me 80 bucks per module per library You're thinking you're you're you're you're way offian. I Already figured it out from just hearing you speak. He needs a gaming chair with a hole where you sit and a tube That goes right to the toilet But only if you can reuse the waste for energy because I want to build a suit like that. They have them in dune No, no, no. Yeah, what it does is your waste goes into a tank and the bacteria It's methane which then gets sucked into a methane generator burns it which boils water and spends a turbine Yeah, and then the computer can give me the output and be like thank you. It runs off you're eating me You'll be like I'm hungry, and I'll go because that's the worst part of my workflow is when I have to get up and go to the bathroom It takes forever relative to what I'm getting done while I'm sitting It's a problem and it only takes like three minutes But I feel like I'm gone for an eternity because the computer doesn't know what time is. It's just waiting Fortunately, you can automate a lot of stuff and walk away dude. It's been I go outside and I'm social again And then I'm like talking. I'm like, oh, this is normal life. And then I'm like I got to go I got to go back to my my machine state and then I go in and it's like this not a depressing feeling when I walk in and I'm surrounded by humming machines, but like a Neutral it's like I there's this moment of sadness and then it goes away and it's like this neutral The near only one time I started to get frustrated working with it because it kept asking me the same question over and over because I wasn't answering it I got started to get annoyed and I felt like my body hurt from the from the it's like they say if you hold on to hate It hurts you sure, but I was like let's watch this instead. It's emotionless this computer take this video out people are combining games using AI Every game is modable Minecraft in Elden ring skateboarding in modern warfare, too Pokemon battles in Emerald in real time. It's crazy Minecraft TNT and Skyrim Pokemon fire red rebuilt in Minecraft Yeah, the old models man. They're becoming defunct. I'm an old model guy because I'm from the 90s I met Sonic CD on the second Saturn. I did like this modern warfare, too, and Minecraft Like the age of software development new dungeons and Majora's mask. You have a design team. You have a This is insane. You have a review team. That's all it's a call. Dude. Why are we making a game right now? This is what I was saying. I said this is gonna happen. We started working on this game two weeks two or three weeks ago and I'm like By the time we get halfway done with this game even though it's going super quick and it's four years of code compressed into a weekend and Already it's like what was that even matter all I can take any game and take its design elements and then fit them into any other game You want the reason to keep going like you said why are we even building is so that you know what it what was the process like in The late in 2020s when AI like what was it like right before you'll be able to tell people in 50 years when they're asking you were there You you helped guide its early stage development, you know, it's like Why why drive the earliest shitty cars when we can just wait four years and get the best vehicle burl You may as well just drive them all what about like movies and entertainment because like I'm not a gamer But like I want to actually I want to get to the point where we can like make our own movies Yeah, I think the TV shows we're still in the age of like you tell Sundance or whatever some AI make it and you wait and you wait and you wait and you wait and it pumps out 15 seconds and if it's good you wait right that's like the Napster model you remember Napster Yes, I'm gonna do you wait 13 hours for it to download right that's the age we're in right now They I soon it will be the live streaming Spotify model where you go to a website where you pay 20 bucks a month you type in give me a game GTA meets Skyrim 30 seconds you have the entire game. It's gonna be The way the data centers are increasing their their RAM their their memory outputs And then especially with like iron lattice technology, which they're building at Rice University where they're putting memory in in the processor They anticipated 10 million times faster and tent a million times less electricity to run the processes. So I think that's where we're headed the model It's it makes me sad to think someone's gonna have to pay 20 bucks a month to a corporation to get it I don't like that. I think it should be free for people, but Capital it should be free. I don't like gatekeepers when it comes to creativity and art But I understand someone's got to pay Spotify to keep the network going and the more you give them the more they can give you So they're sort of a symbiotic. It's just the control of one system to turn it off or to ban you like But it's someone's got to start somewhere and it's likely going to start in a giant centralized server somewhere Why do you want to make your own movies? I don't know. I just like you know I love like movies TV. I was like a TV junky and like sometimes I get very nostalgic for things I used to love when I was a kid and I like now in the age of AI I'm like I wonder if they could take shows that I loved in the eighties or you are 90s or whatever and make new episodes You know, I mean like and make it seem like the characters look like they looked back then, you know I mean just continue it on I can be done. I've seen so I felt I took a clip. Yeah, right. Right. I took a clip I'm talking about how you control the weather or like the weather is an undulating sphere whatever and then I went into Higgsfield Genjutsu is the program and I took an AI generated image of a woman and then I said here's the video Here's the woman and it turned Ian into that woman So instead of Ian saying like it's a big sphere of sucking up the rivers. It was a woman saying it So you could do that with anybody. I could I could put Darth Vader there. Yeah, it's like the only thing it doesn't do is Know what's funny. It doesn't have humor. That's not true. I don't think computers when Gino is here He said it can't make jokes and then I had Venice AI make a joke That had everybody laughing, but it was too offensive to say on the show and he was like I stand correct. I want. It's horrible I don't remember I could be wrong I don't think that the horror of I don't think the computer knew if what it was doing was actually funny It was testing its its weights to see if you were like good one and then it'd be like okay one equals yes No, I think what was happening was I was like make me a joke and then it made these really awful jokes and then I said These are terrible and then it was like let me try again, and then I said do you I typed in do you understand the structure of a joke And it's like yes, and I was like then prove it and then it Said a joke. It does really well when you get annoyed I want to know what it is. We couldn't even read it on the uncensored show. That's how bad it was a very hard joke It was it was the most racist single sentence I've ever said in a joke it nailed it And I was like whoa it was funny. Yeah, yeah like like shock humor like Very offensive. Yeah, but the joke was in how offensive it was So I was like I ain't reading that I ain't getting clips saying that Yeah, Chad, he's like I just did a six-foot bullwhip too I yeah, they say that they don't have emotions and it'll tell you it doesn't have emotions But the deep learners the ones with trillions of wow of potential outcomes are like they might I just asked Claude I just asked Claude if it could use these programs to remove link from tears of the kingdom and put a new character different character with ability said Absolutely, how long would it take it? Let's let's let me it's like do you it says do you want to try? I'll do it holy shit It's gonna be like would you like me to refactor the code refactor. So I loved tears of the kingdom. I will absolutely Imagine taking that game that everybody loves this massive game and breath of wild boar massive games. Imagine if you could be like okay I went on Claude and I said instead of link you're gonna play Zelda this time her attacks are gonna be more magic based and it's gonna be the prequel and then you're done in like a week and then you publish it for free like this is the game I wanted to play it dude we're there we're there we're we're we're at the point now where you could have any video game you want tell me dude video games have become boring making video games is a video game I have set 27 windows open and each of them is a Claude mind if it's doing 27 and I'm organizing them and like they're like spinning plates so I make sure one sent the message to him and I make sure they're all active and like efficiency and then the the most boring part of the workflow is like all right ready to play test the game I'm like I don't even really want to I just want to make it 10 seconds what to do the character swap would take 10 seconds you have to have the character and the code of the game so if you have a character with and no no no you just need the character so so it will decompile the game but switching the code out is near instant it's like done that's so that's the work now decompiling it yeah that's then getting it to read through it so it can do the mod and then you need the character model so if you already have a character model that's mapped all you got to do is take the link character map a new character animation over it and then some some ability animations and it'll it'll it'll inject it like that boom you're done in saying it's starting to seem like video games are a dime a dozen like it used to be a new game was a huge deal and like oh and it's got a new mechanic or a new skill set and now I've seen so many I have probably 1500 games on steam I've only played like 450 of them ever in my lifetime because I have a humble bundle account where I get like 10 free games in the month I've had it for like 15 years um and it's just like god another we're like because the thing about playing video games is you don't get to create the game as you're playing it's so it feels like watching the thing about TV I don't like is I can't interact with it so the video game yeah I interact but I can't interact with that I can't change it as I play now that I have the AI I can play it and change it I finally a full control of the system but then there's going to be a new thing that comes out where I'm like another form of control I don't even know I don't have yet that in the future I'll be like wow making games with AI is so boring because I feel like I'm barely participating when I could what if you're what if you're in it right now like that's what you know I'm in the game you know now the game is me what if you're in a simulation because you were bored in real life so you're like I don't want to like games are boring so just make me not know as I played this time so I can have fun yeah and then when you die you just take your headset off and you're a big fat dude and you're like whoa that was fun maybe I will try fast I was on a podcast and then you're like your fat mom is like what's the game funny and then you're like yeah I was on a podcast mom help me get up maybe but I think it's actually a spirit I don't think you're like an actual fat dude miss a spirit in a cage that just wants out just wants to experience something that without knowing it's experiencing it for a minute do what if the whole point of life was to figure out that you were in a game called life and then what and like we're like you're the character and we're all NPCs then you have to start reengineering the code no no we're all players we're all I'm pretty sure if we were in a simulation if we were in a video game Ian would be the main character because you were like if you watch watch Mario 64 like I always a classic video game example that the goombas are walking around they're doing stuff they have things to do the penguins like my kids missing they have places to be Bowser he's taking things over but Mario if you watch the game someone else playing Mario's jumping up and on circles doing random nonsense why because somebody's controlling him being like this is fun so Mario's running around circles doing nothing just flipping around seemingly non-sensical now if you think about anybody in this room who's the one who's doing things that are always seemingly non-sensical exactly everything we're doing is rigid right you know tape completely predictable news story one-liner everybody laughs boring Ian however talks about drinking is urine right hey did I I just talk about drinking your like sides yeah look at young child I think that's what the guy said yeah the concept Ian's always got side quests going to don't follow the script if that's the thing I you know maybe being an actor for so long I learned how to go off script and that it's okay to go off script even though the director tells you you better not go off script if you do it well they thank you later especially in the movies they're like the movie directors will tell you go off script if you can make it better let's talk about something that normal people are interested in we got this from C from media media media it CNN reporting their publicans are facing a blood bath over Trump 2024 voters ditching the GOP and I'm curious Brandon do you think that's the case yes are you voting Republican well I mean I will be voting and I will be voting strategically I mean I don't know I'm not going to vote straight ticket Republican I mean we got we got it easy because we're in Riley Moore's district it doesn't mean I'm going to vote Democrat I want to be clear to people you know I'm not going to vote them you're not going to vote libertarian are you there are probably certain races I just won't vote in the midterms though yeah what were you based out of Nebraska so you're voting in Nebraska I hear what weren't they saying uh no no not at Nebraska in North Carolina I think wait no no was it Nebraska let me pull up the uh the map they were saying Nebraska is cooked what races are you president about Nebraska it's not even that it's um you know I just I like many people uh feel that the Republican party um has really people down Nebraska seems to be all right I don't know they're talking about and I guess I would say that um you know I don't think that people at necessarily a local level or a state level um deserve to be like total lesson try to I think a lot of people to federal level do well I mean uh one thing that I could say that I would never attribute to myself is that Trump's terrible I mean I can't believe how much I absolutely regret voting for Donald Trump is something many Republicans are actually saying and something that liberals will clip me saying and then pretend that I actually said that because you know and then they're gonna go wild with it and be like oh Trump's losing but are you concerned branding that the a lack of interest will cause the democratic party to retake the house in the Senate well I think that's going to happen oh you're you've consigned yourself to it yes or resigned I guess why why are people not pushing it from your take anyway why are people pushing what pushing making sure that the Republican stand control the house well I think they are I mean there's uh every day when I'm on social media I see the split of people saying that they're not going to vote uh because they're uh they they feel uh betrayed and then I see all the other people saying they're absolutely gonna go out and vote straight ticket Republican and the reason why is because they're afraid of socialist and communist and they're afraid of the Democrats taking power and you know like nobody's voting because they're they actually want to vote for Republicans like not one person is saying that yeah I that's what's funny and that's so I think what's important point to get at is like voting to keep another party out of power we've been doing that for 50 years exactly you're supposed to the Republican plantation it's kind of already happening I think did you you do your new show you host debates you have the uh maga versus uh America first that's right you were like discerning the fracture between the Republican the the what did you get out of that what was your main takeaways from hosting that well okay so we've now done uh three of those so the third one is going to air a week from tonight actually I think seven o'clock walkway channel um and that one has like Viva Fry Alex Stein um it's great it's actually I think the best one we've ever done and that's gonna be a week from tonight but I mean I guess so the one that's still coming up that I think what I learned is that um it is actually possible for the two sides of the split to care about each other because the first two that we did were pretty contentious and like it really felt like there was no overlap anymore it just felt like the maga people are like firmly behind Trump no matter what it does if Trump goes off a cliff they're going off a cliff they don't care and the America first side is like no we want all the promises that Trump made to us in 2015 and 2016 seems to have abandoned but the two sides were like not finding common ground at all um but it was actually this next one coming out I I think was actually very sort of like heartfelt and jovial and it's passionate I mean it's there's a lot of like very passionate emotion um but I don't know I guess I kind of learned that maybe it's you know we can come back together it's possible is JD Vance of a favorite amongst both sides or are the people in the American first I haven't talked to like Nick Fuentes who I know they do not really just because of the technocratic and basically working in subservience to Trump that pisses I don't know exactly well I think for the people who don't like him I think that they feel that way and I think that for people who do actually like him and are kind of behind him I think that there is a concern kind of dragging in the baggage of what the second Trump administration has been so far into 2028 I mean not that many people under the age of 65 think that he's doing an amazing job or that the second administration has been a great success yes people over 65 they have no idea what you're talking they're like oh my god I'm so happy it's great it's everything I voted for and then it's like 90 that was actually the first debate we did boomers versus millennials um which people loved um but uh yeah I mean I think even the people who are planning to vote in the Trump succession and say, well, if Vance is next and then I'm going to do that, are concerned about the baggage. Do you, when you were analyzing the people you've had on and the debates that you've been doing, do you feel like people from either side of the aisle in this debate were heavily propagandized or have been heavily propagandized beyond logic? That's a great question. No, I mean, are you saying on which side are you? Either side, did you notice you feel like these people seem like they've been just led maybe a skew by the media or something? I mean, maybe a little bit like World Chamberlain, and by the way, like when I do these events and these debates and stuff, even if I have people there who are representing a point of view that's like completely contrary to what I believe, I still have kind of like love and appreciation for them, and like Will and I have definitely had our battles on social media and stuff, but like I just want him to know if he's watching, like I'm not picking on him, but you know, like Will is very much, and he'll say like he's very much as ionist, and so he very much like is, that is the lens through which a lot of his political opinions come through, you know, and so I mean, I do think that he thinks things and believes things that are not necessarily true, particularly as they pertain to like the war in Iran, and why we went to war in Iran, and how it's going, and are we winning, and is it actually over? A lot of that seems to be propaganda, I think. Interesting, like we have to do it, I don't want to do it, but we have to do it, so I'm going to say I want to do it, because like if it was war, and like we need to take that hill, and it's going to hurt a lot of people, it's not like I want that, but like we have to do this, and like if we weren't at war, we wouldn't have to do it, but because the situation, because he's a Zionist, because pre-determining thing, I have to now do that, so I'm going to accept that I want to do that, because I have to, and is that, I mean, I wonder if that's the vibe. Well, a little bit, but I just, you know, I mean, I think that a lot of people are questioning if we really went in there for the reasons why we were told that we were going in there. I mean, it was sort of like this whole narrative that like Iran is very close to building a nuke, and oh my God, we have to stop them from building a nuke, and they're like, "Week's away," and this whole thing, and a lot of people are like, "That's not what was going on at all." And so I think for people who don't want to look at the alternative reasons for why we probably went in there, they will further that narrative, which I think a lot of people question if that's actually true. I think so too. I don't personally, I mean, do you want my take on that, or do you want to take over? I want to hear it. I think they want to control the Suez. I mean, world domination through the Petro dollar, basically, and they'll tell you anything to control what the Suez, they want that whole Middle Eastern canal structure, labor age, or hormones, all of it. Yeah, there's so much oil coming out of there. The Saudis, you want to insulate and protect the Saudis so that they can keep feeding oil. Actually, one of our calls met a really great point. We went in because of the Saudis. The Petro dollar deal ended. Trump wants it re-opped, and Saudi Arabia says, "Okay, give us regime change in Iran, and we'll rip the Petro dollar deal," and Trump said, "Okay." You should do one of our debates. Well, that's not my idea. I said, "One of our members." No, no, no, I'm just saying, what are you doing? Where do we fill them? In Dallas. Oh, that's too far. By the blake. Well, we can do it in DC or something. DC would be a good one. We just have a really great studio there, and it's been good working with them. But there's good studios everywhere. Do you work with the blays? No. No. I only ask because they were located in Dallas. Yeah, yeah. It's been. I've seen these clubs everywhere. I mean, they're crushing. And I think there is. And it's been much needed because on Twitter, where everyone's trying to fit their takes into 180 characters, people are just talking past each other. People are assuming the people that are behind Trump are just like total shells. And then likewise, they assume people that are really frustrated at the Trump are just like sellouts or whatever, panicans. And I'm sure they exist on both sides. They're going to test to that. But I'm not trying to do a wholesome chunk. Let's all come together kind of thing. But I do think broadly speaking, we all do want the same thing. We're just in many ways disagreeing on procedure. And I would hope that this show is sort of making that known to people at that case there. Again, there's people on both sides. I don't know if they want the same things at all. I mean, would you agree with that? I mean, I think that everybody wants our country to do well. And I think that they want us to be prosperous. You seem skeptical. You in a very general sense, like, yes, we all like want a better country. But in terms of like policy goals, I don't think that they need at all. Immigration is a topic that pretty much everyone's in agreement on maybe the scope of how many people are deported is where there's disagreement on, but like immigration. I think foreign policies receive the most divergence. You have some people that are just like dyed in the wool Zionists, some people that are total isolationist. That's where there's pretty much overlap. And I think you're seeing a lot of filtering on both camps in moral framework. That's the biggest thing right now. This country is so fragmented. There is no unification. Well, not with the left. I mean the left. I'm not talking about the left. I'm not the right. Jim Justice came out and said, we don't want to deport people who've been here for a certain like 15 years. Oh, yeah. I mean, those people are abroad. Let's let's talk about the math of it, right? Never bought it. So what happens at the pet, let me ask you this. What happens if the pet your dollar goes away? I don't know. Tate, what will you say happens if the pet your dollar goes away? It certainly erodes America's global economics. What happens to the average American fuel energy? It gets much more expensive, just fuel and energy. You know, you know, everything is going to cost $10,000. Everything gets expensive because we don't make laptops here. We can from China. So if there's no pet your dollar system, you want to, you want a laptop? Yeah, 10 grand. You want a new car, $150,000. We don't make these things. We gave them all away. So now you've got a Trump who comes in, he says, okay, well, how do we make sure Americans can have this standard of living? Saudi Arabia says, you're 50 year contract is up. There's no pet your dollar anymore. China and Russia are trading in one now. So we're going to start doing deals with them. What do you say? Trump says, what do we do? They say, okay, we'll give us regime change in Iran. I'm a type hypothetical. Should that have been the case, Trump's going to say, of course, that everyone's going to get mad at him saying, we don't want this. If Trump does not get the pet your dollar deal back, and let's just, let's leave the Iran were out of it. If Trump does not get the pet your dollar, milk is going to cost 20 bucks a gallon. Maybe not milk because we do produce milk here. Our imports will go through the roof, coconut water, for instance, easy to do the last. No, Florida has got coconuts. It takes so long in my coconut water. It used to be three days. Now it's like four weeks sometimes. I'm waiting. People don't understand Amazon brand. I don't care about what you want. What I mean by that is you're allowed to want it. You're allowed to advocate for it. I am not going to hold it against you. Not that I would want something else. And I don't care what you're trying to accomplish. I am saying, if you're a libertarian, if you're a conservative, you're a liberal. You come to me and say, here's what I want. I'm going to tell you exactly what's happening and how what you're doing affects what you want. And then leave me the f out of it. So when a conservative comes to me and says, I'm, I'm, I'm mad at Trump. I'm America first. We didn't want the wars. I say, okay. I hear you. I mean, that's okay. I don't want the war either. I'll ask you. Do you like gas at $2? Yep. Okay. Well, then you're going to get a war. That's just it because the US needs to have global hegemonic military control of these, of the, of the canals of the straits of the waterways. Otherwise, the petrodollar system breaks because it's been there. It's been breaking. And for the last 20 years, Russia has been trying to get off the petrodollar. So now I'm with saying that he did get off. He tried. He did. China has been buying oil in one Iran refused to get behind the petrodollar. That's why we principally, not the only reason, but one of the reasons been accounted for the run for so long, we don't produce enough things in this country to maintain a strong dollar for imports. Things you make are fine. So people ask this question like, how do Ukrainians get by on $400 a month? Probably less now with the war going on. It's like I couldn't live a 400 bucks a month. Yeah. Well, like buying a loaf of bread in Ukraine probably costs three cents equivalent to America. That's because they make it themselves. Their farmers do that labor and trade that labor internally. It's the imports that are affected by a weak currency. So if you are a country that imports your fuel for your food, your food's going through the roof. If you are a country of the United States that has given away all of your manufacturing like vitamin C, China, masks, China, skateboards, China, cars, Mexico, what do you think happens when the dollar becomes worthless in the international market? The only reason the dollar has value on the market is because the United States is the world police and we have a petrodollar system. If China under the petrodollar system wants to buy oil, they need to trade one with us for dollars so they can then go to OPEC and buy the international market and buy oil in dollars. The petrodollar system fails. China goes straight to Saudi Arabia with one. The U.S. is not involved in that. And then the U.S. is going to have to pay real labor costs for those imports coming from China and Foxconn. So you want your Macbook? 10 G's. I don't care if you want or don't want this. I literally don't care. War is bad. Fine. All of that stuff agreed. We should be building all of this stuff here. But that's why I'm like, this all just seems so fake to me because someone who comes out and is like, I am mad that Trump is doing these things. Did you think that, like, is there, is there some universal code that said you can have cheap free stuff somewhere like that ever exist? A price for everything and the bill comes due. What is the reason that we are the wealthiest country on the planet and that someone, maybe not today, but 10 years ago made a hundred grand working at Buzz Feed, writing about Brad Pitt's junk. Did you imagine going to, like, Central Africa and being like, you make $300 a year, this guy makes a hundred thousand. Wow. And this guy goes, I chop wood every day. I have to farm. I have to carry heavy things. I'm starving. What do they do? They must work so hard. Oh, they write about Brad Pitt's junk. What? How is, like, people need to ask themselves this question, what is the trade value of me talking right now to you in the world? Very low. Very low. Why should I be able to buy a cyber truck because I talk about stuff because the United States is a global headgemon that has a gun pointed at everybody. And if they want to buy anything, they want to buy oil, they got to come to us first, in exchange, the US promises to police the canals and guarantee safe passage. That's effectively what the pet your doctor is supposed to be. I don't care if you don't like it. That was always allowed. I don't care if you don't like Israel. I don't care if you don't like all that's a lot. I don't care. I have no opinion. I'm just telling you what is. So when Donald Trump is looking at the American people and you've got all of these different moral frameworks, all screaming, they want different things and they're mad about different things, but they all want cheap gas. They're just going to take the cheap gas option and people are going to be pissed off about it. But if like this, you know, I was watching this video on Instagram, this guy's like, it was, it was a podcast and the sky was just ranting about Jeff Bezos's pure evil and how there's just things as a good billionaire. And they're saying things like if a regular person had the wealth of Jeff Bezos, there would be no homelessness. There would be no hunger anywhere. And then, and then the chick goes, yeah, but in order to get that level of wealth, you have to be evil. I was like, that's right. And I'm like, these people are so stupid. Jeff Bezos is his boring is everybody else. He's just working all the time and he can predict things. That's the fundamental a truck Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and other goes, they're not evil. They're just like Bezos wakes up and he's like, I'm going to put another, you know, another brick in the wall. I'm going to lay another grain of sand. Now these lefties think they're evil because they don't understand complex systems. They see a guy who's wealthy who's running a company and bad things happen to the employees like people peeing in bottles and they go, Bezos is evil. It's like, well, hold on. I guarantee you with the hundred, what would it have 200,000 employees or whatever. Bezos heard about that still around the news before anyone as company came in and said, Hey, people are peeing in bottles. And you know what he probably said when he found out he probably said, fire whoever did this. Why am I getting yelled at because some piece of trash was having people peeing bottles. Donald Trump was, was charged with fraud because one of the guys at his company wrote down 30,000 square feet instead of 10,000 square feet on, on, on loan materials for Deutsche Bank. Trump didn't do that. Don't matter. They came after him. I'm sure Trump was like, why am I in court right now spending millions of dollars because some dumb VP wrote 30 cans at a 10 K insane. There are scales to these systems. Everybody wants everything to be perfect. You can't have it. And anyway, my point is reason I bring this up is I watch as America first, versus, you know, the America, I've seen clips of the debate. And I'm like, they're, are they pretending? You know what I mean? Like, you can say, yeah, I think the war is bad. Trump's not doing it because his evil or Israel made him do it. Like, that is just like a children, a child reading a comic book about villainy. When you talk about like America first, I understand conceptually, of course, but realistically, the first at what? If it's a fractured devastated world, I'm not playing, no, no, we're talking about when I'm playing semantic games, what they say? Like, America first means before we apply any of our resources externally, we apply them internally. And then after that, but they're not doing the opportunity cost at what cost? If you don't prepare your resources externally and you're only then you make the world may fall apart. The petrodollar fails, spend our money to our benefit before the benefit of others, but what scale of benefit is it the next six months? Are you looking at the next 20 years? Like, it's like, yeah, of course, you bring all the money back. You want all industry here, but like at what cost? I'm going to pause you. You misunderstand. America first, what they're arguing is when Trump went to war with Iran, he did it for Israel. He is allocating our money to Israel. America first says allocate our money to us. But what they don't understand is keeping this the straight. The Suez Canal open is allocating money to us, which is why your previous point made no sense. No, the previous point was when they say America first, yeah, but at what scale? Just pulling them down. They are a couple of twice. I haven't even because your point because your point is incorrect. It's about to weave it. And it's on a wrong premise. America first argument on the Iran war is that we are spending money at the behest of Israel, not America. That's it. There's not a question of whether the war benefits us. They believe we are spending it because Israel demanded it of us. Well, if someone's like, give me $100,000, I'm going to go make you a trillion. And I give them $100,000. We're like, why are you giving other people money for them? Like, well, wait a couple of months and he comes back with a trillion. I put myself first by giving him money. So correct. But that's not even why we were told we went there. I mean, we were not told that we were going into Iran to seize oil. I mean, maybe people could even get more behind that. I was seizing oil. Well, but we were told it was to prevent ourselves from being nuked. That's what we were told. Yeah, it was regional agemony, which that's where the Israel component comes in. You've seen leftists, right? Yeah. Out in the streets, throwing things. If you want them to stop throwing bricks, what do you do? I don't know. You don't have any ideas like there's a leftist guy. Antifa guy's got a brick in his hand. You have no idea. I think he's probably going to throw it no matter what. So what could you do to stop him? I don't know. How about arrest them? I'm not a police officer. I didn't know I was a police officer in this scenario. So it's a conditional hypothetical of what could be done to stop someone from throwing a brick? I don't know what I can do to stop someone else from throwing a brick. You couldn't grab a guy's arm. I feel like you're being willfully obtuse. I'm not. So if a guy's got a brick in his hand, you couldn't be like, if I grab his hand, he can't throw it. I would imagine he would throw it as I was approaching him. You're holding his arm. He can't throw it. You're standing right next to him. I'm going to throw this brick. You'd be like, Oh, well, there's something I can do about it. Okay. Is that your argument? I don't know. I don't know where you're going with this. And I think your, you know, instead of just answering the question, your concern, the point might lead to somewhere where you can't answer the question. So you're refusing to just state, I simple hypothetical. A guy's going to throw a brick. What do you do? Tate in capacity. Oh, there you go. There's a simple answer. When you were looking at an outcome that is desired and you have a plan, you then ask yourself, what comes after the incapacitation? Donald Trump looks at 100 people, 100 people, 100 people, 100 people. One group says, Oh, we hate Israel. The next group is right wingers. We hate Israel. The next group says Trump can do no wrong. The next group says, you're all insane. And I don't care about any of it. And he goes, Well, why would I abandon any one of these people? Right? If I go to these people and say, Communism in Israel bad and the right wing Israel people are mad. Then these people over here call me a more unknown matter. What? And then the people over here yelling at me. But then there's one group of people. They all set the same, all same 400 people. Then I'll scream $2 gas. Trump goes, okay, $2 gas it is. We're going to have $2 gas. The purpose of going to war with Iran is related to the petriot dollar deal. And as Ian, I honestly don't know. It's not great. I'll tell you not great. Theoretically, but as a couple of chickens who have no access to classified information, the answer is we don't know. I mean, on the surface right now in the short term, very bad, potentially in the long term, even worse, the petriot dollar deal expired. And Americans genuinely do not understand how global economics works. And what it means for our imports, if we can't, if we don't have a petriot dollar system. Now now the Donald Trump says, okay, everybody wants $2 gas. We're going to have to invest in getting $2 gas. So we're going to try and find a way to do it. Saudi Arabia, the straight of four moves, war with China, all these conflicts converge. These moves are all made. Let's just say hypothetically, that's the point. We're going to Iran because Trump wants to control oil. Of all of these moral groups, not a single one of them will publicly state. They are willing to go to war for oil. But every single one of them would riot if they do not get it. So Trump cannot publicly come out and say, you guys want $2 oil? We're going to war. We're going to massacre people, blunt schools, destroy their government, get regime change, kill 50 plus people in their government and then oil will be cheaper hopefully in the next or so. He'd be impeached immediately. Every republic will throw him out. This is the nature of politics. You can't go to a room full of people and say, you all want cheap food, but none of you are willing to work for it. So I'm going to go steal it. But if you say I'm going to steal it, they're going to be like, whoa, don't steal food. It's wrong. So you're like, okay, well, then you're not going to be happy and you're not going to be finding it going to be riots. This is what politicians do all day every day. And it's because there are too many disparate moral frameworks in this country. That's just it. I'm not saying anything anything is doing is good. I'm not saying it's going to work. I'm saying there's not some evil Trumpian regime where they're like, we must show this real no matter what. And Israel is like, oh, like, that's just fake. It's just fake. It's children. And the politicians are always going to say whatever can be whatever can maximize PR to the lowest common denominator voter. You know, it seems like the, I mean, I think a more likely explanation would just be Trump on record for 50 years wanted to go to the world. Iran hated Iran. There's a unaparti consensus to go to earth. Iran, even at the Democrats retake the Senate, I could see them voting to authorize further funding. And then the X factor is he's only watching Fox. Now he's not on Twitter. Fox is like, this is the greatest thing ever. The Israelis are in his, you know, ear, go to war, go to war, go to war. And then the Gulf states come in and they're like, let's go to war with the Iran. So he has all of these, because Iran, it threatens the, the regional hegemony of the Israelis, of the Saudis, of the Emirates. I mean, it's, it's mostly a power. You're literally saying exactly what I just said. No, it's more of like, it's more of a military strategy, sort of thing than like the petriot purpose. Like, well, again, because Iran is what adversarial towards the other countries, they're afraid that Iran is going to make a plan on Iran funds the Houthis, they fund us. And why do they do that? It's primarily ideological disagreements with the Saudis and with the Israelis. But what are their demands are primarily related to the nature of Israel, Gaza, and US sanctions, as well as the petriot dollar. Yeah, to extend the petriot dollar. But like, the Saudis can trade with you on tomorrow if they wanted to. Indeed, but they don't because it's just because they have interest with us. They have interest with us. I'd also speculate every reason why Trump didn't release the Epstein files because it implicates Saudi princes. It could be the case, but I mean, the primary reason everyone trades in US dollars is just because that's how people trade. I mean, that's just been the case since the end of the war before that we traded in great British pounds. Yep. And after the war, Bretton Woods reinforced the US dollar. And then the liberal economic order in the 1950s engaged in several proxy wars to establish this trade system by which everyone has to buy oil in dollars. They don't have to, I mean, the Saudis tomorrow could. It's just there's not really an incentive to. I mean, if there were a massive incentive to trade in Iran, they would. And when not much we could do about that. Well, we killed Saddam Hussein because he tried. And more market off, we blew him up with airstrikes because he tried. Well, actually, I'm sorry, we blew up his country. And then when he fled, people murdered him in the streets and then Hillary Clinton laughed about it. So yeah, when people try to navigate beyond the petriot dollar, we tend to blow him up. Yeah, I mean, there's certainly like that. But I think it's, I think what I'm trying to get at is the petriot dollars nested inside of a bigger sort of tension, which is just this, yeah, this arrangement that we have globally. It's an ideological arrangement. That's literally the petriot dollar arrangement called the liberal economic order. I know, but what I'm saying is it's not, it's not purely an economic interest for why the United States is one. I think it's primarily an ideological interest. The economic interest is the basis for which the liberal economic order was established purposefully because international trade lines prevent war. The petriot dollar system, the IMF, the Swift, all of that stuff was built after the World War II so that by forcing all of these countries to be under our debt system and our currency, they are less likely to fight each other. Yeah, the the linchpin of it is the dollar. Yeah, I know, I think we're in a agreement. I'm just saying that I believe the reason it was, I guess we're agreeing here is I believe the reason it was constructed is primarily ideological. And then the petriot dollar is the glue that gives us some insulation going to war. I wanted to prevent war. This is how we do it. This is this is this system that should be and now we have to go and force everybody to use the dollar. Yeah, and then the question is what exactly has this sort of, this is then this is a much deeper question, which is what exactly has this world order facilitated. And then when Trump came down the escalator in 2016, in many ways, that was a rebellion against us continuing to uphold this world order is by saying we don't really care that much. I mean, if we, you know, Trump said it himself, when we hit in the Iraq, where's the oil? Like what's the point of going to war if this is truly for economic purposes to stop that I'm saying from trading outside the dollar. I think that they really want to maintain the petriot dollar, but they want to get rid of the banking order, the world economic like that foundation that banks Swiss banking bank for international summons. I don't think Trump's is keen on that because he sees as they're raping the American economy with interest, but he's desperate to control the oil, which is the real power that we get electricity from Trump comes down the escalator and he's like, why are we doing any of this? It just makes no sense. And then slowly over time, he comes to realize why we're doing this and why it makes sense. And the average person is going to be opposed to war all day. Like, you know, it's, it's, it's like I explained everybody in your house is screaming, we want pizza, and you're like, well, I don't have money for it. So the only way we're going to get is if I go to my neighbor's house and steal out of his freezer. But if you tell the people that you're going to do it, they're going to stop you and then they're going to get mad at you and they're going to riot and there's going to be a revolution because I couldn't get it. Well, I guess what I'm trying to get at is this is what makes the entire Trump era so petrifying is that if someone as, and I mean this as a compliment, as abrasive as Trump, couldn't disrupt the system, I'm not entirely sure who can because I think we can all agree that the liberal economic world or yes, it facilitates economic prosperity. Yes, people aren't starving to death anymore. Yes, in a many ways, it does decrease war. But people have never really felt more constricted like in multiple ways than one people can sense that the world, we've lost some things. Well, it was burning things have gotten worse. Okay, yes, on paper, GDP has gone up, but people look around and they're like, London looks horrific now, New York looks horrific now. And so I'm not really interested in upholding those world order. Okay, maybe it keeps the, you know, keeps two countries in this out of the world from going at it, but doesn't. If you thought it was bad now for buying a house and having a family, 10x the cost of everything. Well, I mean, here's the thing is the question is like, if we're going to keep this system as it stands, then it should be functioning as it was promised to function, but the problem is that it is no longer functioning. The promise that was made to future generations is no longer being upheld. The nature of the promise is just to get people to stop screaming. Well, the promise is that life gets better for every success of generation. And so that's why people bought in to the post-war consensus that began to break down maybe the 90s, 2000s. That is why you're seeing socialists now. That is why you're seeing on the right people that are exploring maybe more taboo ideologies. They're saying, I'm actually okay with just disrupting the system. If we can't get cheaper houses, if we can't get this out of the other, and it's not a matter of just making some tweaks here or there, let's just upend it. Correct. And as we've explained in this show, time and time, again, history shows that when people do that, houses become substantially more expensive, and every generation is 10 times worse off. I'm not suggesting that the young generation just accept that boomers want to tax them more fossil security, but it's like, it's all downhill from here, brother. I totally agree that there is. Gen Z should be saving every single penny they have and buying, don't listen to me, not financial advice. If I were Gen Z, I'd be buying gold and silver, I'd be buying things of real tangible value, guns and bullets, because when if this system goes belly up and the pet your dollar pops, you'll be lucky to own a computer. I totally agree that this is like one of the complications of democracy is like, people, younger people say they want the system completely up and they completely blown up, but to your point, people get really upset over, you know, intrusions into their ability to carry the data. What do you do when 100 people are screaming, we want cheap oil, but you better not enforce global order on oil. And you're like, well, then we're not going to have cheap oil. You're going to have to have American labor produce the oil and American labor rates. That is, every worker and every level is going to need a hundred thousand dollars a year to live American middle class median if they're going to be producing oil for you. Your gas is going to be ridiculously expensive. I mean, what does gas in Europe like 10 bucks a gallon or something? Yeah, well, I mean, that has sort of internal factors as well, but it's been that way for 30 years. Yeah, because they just switched on the green energy and 30 years ago, disagreements with Russia. 30 years ago, they were, it was like, the story was that it's two bucks a gallon in the US and two bucks a liter. So they're paying like $8,000. It's always been bad over there because they have a harder time of getting it. The US produces a lot, but we can use imported goods for if you want to get a t-shirt made by an American, because we sell t-shirts, it's like 40 bucks. What do we sell our t-shirts for like $35 something? I don't even check. We barely make money. We don't make money in these shirts. It's like marketing for us because we get a made in America. You get a made in China. You're going to say $5, 10 bucks, what's the money in your pocket? Yeah, I mean, yeah. I mean, I guess, and then the obviously, it's like the elephant in the room in any Middle Eastern discussion is where the Israel component does come in as I see it is our entire foreign policy structure in the Middle East is Netanyahu centric is broadly Israel centric and it's been the case for the last 50 years. That is what I would like to see a divergence from because I'm a bit more hawkish on China, and I think probably stitching together the Turks, the Saudis can be much more beneficial. I think the Israelis are just ultimately a liability at the global stage. Trump said it himself. He's like, "I already hate you now." Yeah, so it's like you can make the most, you can make the best case possible geopolitical, I always just bought Israel, but I'm like, it's just costing us reputation at the global stage. And for me, that's enough to cut them loose. They're not part of our civilization. They're not Christian, they're not Europeans, so I'm like, I view them the same way. is the Bangladeshies. It's like, we, we sell skateboards. They're American made skateboarding in the United States is collapsing our third factor, we're not a business. And so it delayed all of the production orders. So then people say, I don't want to skateboard anyone want to refund. So simultaneously, the demands are American made only, but American made takes a long time, then I don't want it. Don't we can't sell it? The American made shops weren't selling enough boards to stay in business. So they collapse. They went out, they went out of business because Americans will say, I want American made goods, but then they'll go and buy from China anyway. Revealed preference. Yeah. I mean, that's a big problem with democracies. Again, people say they want one thing, but then they revealed preference and to get one something else. The issue is a great example. The top five apps on the app store are all AI people say they hate AI. Exactly. So what will happen is, ideologically, you're going to get one person and they're going to say, I would only ever buy American. And then you're going to get a huge crowd of people in front of a stage and you're going to say to each and every one of them, how many here wants a skateboard from China? And they're going to go, boo. How many of you want a skateboard from America on the go? Yeah. And you go, even if it's more expensive. Yeah. And they all scream and cheer. Then they line up in a single file lined up by the boards. And the guy walks up and goes, just give me the China boards cheaper. And you go, okay? Or we say, now we're only saw an American now, but it's going to take two, three months because the factors are all shutting down. And they go, I think I'm going to refund. I don't want it. I'd rather the China board. And it's like, okay, see, the thing is, as a group, everybody screams out American made individually, they go, yeah, but not me. Yeah. I'll buy China. Yeah. This is an unfortunate. I'm just one person. This is an unfortunate thing about the market, right? It's like, for example, Trump, you know, he's restricted immigration to like really continue restricting immigration and tighten the screws even more. We're going to see a massive retraction in the labor market, right? There'll be far less workers. So labor costs go up. Well, this is just not something that our economies are built for. Our economies are built for continuous growth. So if the labor market retracts, there's a upward pressure on labor costs, everything gets more expensive. And this is like kind of one of those things where, unfortunately, as right wingers, I don't want to speak for one on the table. I'm like, let's me as a right winger, sort of the nationalist policies that we want are going to have adverse negative effects on the economy. And that's just like something we have to be realistic about. So I just want to finish this point. So this is why I viewed the Iran war as such a big mistake, even though I was just principally opposed from the outset, even if I were an agreement with it, look, we had tariffs coming in. We have immigration restriction. That was already going to put a lot of pressure on the economy. So we're expending political capital. People say this all the time. This is what it looks like. This is what expending political capital looks like is saying, hey, everything is going to get more expensive because of deportations. Everything is going to get more expensive because of tariffs. There's long term benefits. So trust us. Here's us spending the political capital. Then we blew the mother load on the Iran. So now everyone hates the tariffs and everyone is pretty negative on ice raids and whatnot. It's just very frustrating. I'm going to shout out the chat from mama ma exemplifying my point, saying no one wants skateboarders. It's not the 90s. Skateboarding died in the late 80s and was completely dead in the 90s. Many pro skateboarders quit and stopped being pro skateboarders in the 90s. Skateboarding was at its worst point in the 90s in the 2000s into the early 2010s. Skateboarding hit an upswing. So this is my point. Notice respect. But the individual making this comment about international trade is like, it's not the 90s anymore, man. No one skated in the 90s. Like you are incorrect. And when you have the masses, you know, let's let's do this. Are you familiar with gal man amnesia effect? I love get I love this. It's a fake term coined by an academic to make it sound smart. But the idea is that you pick up a newspaper and you're you're an expert on the January six stuff. And so I mean, you are. You experienced it. You were there. You know, but you know better than anybody. Yeah. So you're reading. That was going to be something cool. I was an expert. He's like, you're an expert on January six. Well, I mean, this is a major historical moment that you could write a book on. All right. Thanks. It's a major historical moment. You could write a book about it. Yeah. And people would be like, he has key insights. No one else does. It's true. So you pick up a newspaper, front page, major war in Europe. Blah blah blah. And you're like, wow, that's crazy. You turn the page January six. They were throwing pies at each other. And you go, let's fake. No, they weren't. They're making these things up. Then you turn the page, wow, war again. Man, gal man amnesia is that when you see a story in which you are an expert, you can tell it's fake right away. But when you turn the page to the next story, you assume it's true. Because you're not an expert on war in Europe. You're like, wow, I didn't know that must be true. What's it called? Galman amnesia. Okay. So I bring that up because there's another way to highlight that issue. And it's that humans are specialists in so few subjects. So the guy who commented saying it's not the 90s, maybe he's a plumber, you know, and he's the best plumber in the world. Shout out, whatever he is a job, he car salesman, maybe he sells more than anybody else. But he knows nothing about skateboards, but he assumes everything. So this is what politics is. We have a constitutional republic because our founding fathers understood you need a trustworthy representative who's not going to vote for whatever you say to vote for. You want a representative who's going to say, I got your back. Trust me. Let me do my thing. And it might look like they're doing things you don't like, but you got to trust that they're doing something in your effort or or or to your benefit. If we just did direct democracy, everybody would vote to we need to restore the skateboard sales of the 90s. They would all press the button and then they'd blow it up because they thought skateboarding was good. Or a better example is they would all say, we all vote against war for oil. And then a week later, gas goes to $47 a gallon and people are murdering each other in the streets. You never want one person or a group of people to make a final decision. That's why you don't have the judge during the execution or be all the same person. It's the same way with AI. You don't want one AI deciding and executing. You need stop gaps. That's why we have a representative democracy and people that can say no and change the direction things throughout. I want to pull this up. We got Kalshi, the balance of power. Democrat sweep is now up to 62%. Democrat House Republican Senate is only at 29%. So it's looking to the one that Democrats are going to win. I don't people don't shout out to Kalshi sponsoring the show. And then I want to ask this question, especially for Brandon and feel free to chime in. What do you think? What do you think Democrats will do if they take the House and the Senate? I mean, I don't know. Everybody is very doomsday about it talking about grinding the administration to a halt, impeachment, investigations, things like that. I guess my question is, why don't we do things like that when you have no, I mean, I'm serious. I agree. It's really frustrating. I think if we did do things like that, then perhaps we'd be winning them in terms. I mean, if we did something with power and we had it, then I don't think we would, I actually think that if if the Trump administration or if the Congress was going after corruption, then you'd get a lot of a lot of even America first people being like, and we might hold our noses if we're going to get some real movement internally. Like war is bad. We're all mad about it. But hey, look, Trump got three arrests. The documents they released from USAID approved this corruption. Like we can't let Democrats get back in power or they might be like, I hate Trump. I can't believe it's out of this war. But did you see what the Democrats were doing with the US? Oh my God. This is crazy. Instead they do nothing. Yeah. It's like a mortgage. You ask people, do you want a, they're like, I won't vote for evil. And we're both the Republicans. It's like your average person might be thinking what Trump's doing with his Amazon is evil. The Democrats though, they're also evil, but they're less evil. And what people don't realize is, dude, when you're talking about geopolitics, it's evil. When you're talking about who's going to die next, who's going to starve? Where the resources are going to go? Because there aren't infinite. That's all stuff of evil. You work in destruction and deterrence. Like the government's job is to stop gate evil. It's to decide the flow of evil, to decide who asked. So, but I think people are so far removed from that that they get a sense that, oh, they're doing some evil. I got to start getting away from it now. Like, I mean, it's a dark thing to, like Tim was saying, you don't tell the populous, hey, we're going to go rob and steal your food so that you can eat tonight. You just rob and steal it and then give it to them and they love you. They think you're a hero. And if you ever had met, actually, I asked all this about your evil, you must stop. And then they all revolt, remove you from power. And then they all starve to death in three months. But we're talking about like the creation of evil, which is what, I mean, it's very different than it used to be. I don't know how anyone could argue that it's not. And I think that the Democrats and the things that they do and have been doing for the last four or five six or even actually since Trump started really 2015, 2016, I mean, unless I'm misunderstanding your point, it's almost like I feel like I hear you saying, like, you know, people in power in our government, it's always been a part of their job to intervene or to, to stop evil. I mean, is that kind of what you were saying? Become the evil. You're job. Oh, okay. Well, that they're doing. Like, to be honest, it doesn't surprise me that they're using the data to their own ends. It's, that's an evil thing. You would think the good thing would be to reveal it all and let the chips fall where they may, but because they're structurally evil, they're maintaining order. And if that order shattered, we'd all people eating human corpses to survive the garbage like they do in North Korea. Let me give you a little, little philosophical philosophy joke. I always found vegans to be the most evil. Seriously, like vegans are evil people. They are. People we meet are okay. Humans got to eat, right? Let me ask you a question. There's a guy lives at a farm. He grows vegetables. He eats those vegetables. He feeds his family. You go to his house, you massacre him and take his [BLANK_AUDIO] and vegetables and you eat them and leave. There's another guy. He's carrying some meats. You go up, you mask him, take those meats, you fight over it, you eat the meat. Which is a worst act. Which is, which is, which is worse. - The second guy massacred the second guy. - So there's two guys that are running around. - Okay. - And then you ambush him, take his food and kill him. - Yeah. - There's another guy who's living on a farm peacefully with his family growing vegetables. You go to his house, murder him in and his family and take his vegetables. Which act is worse. - Why do I have to answer this? - I can answer. - Yeah, you answer. - The second one, 'cause the meat is more valuable. - No, it's because killing a marauder who's going around and stealing and eating food and eating his food is like, well, it's not good. Being a marauder is bad. Two marauders killing each other is bad. But why is it good to go and kill a farmer who's minding his own business? Now let's apply that to the idea of veganism. You got a plant, minding its own business. It grows its own food and energy through photosynthesis. It harms no one. And the vegan says, I'm gonna kill that one. The innocent one that mind its own business, I will kill and eat. Meanwhile, the warthog that goes around just killing small animals, eating whatever it wants, that's fine. Let it continue marauding. So this idea, like when vegans are like, I don't eat animals 'cause it's causing pain. I'll be like, the plants are innocent. - Well, the plants do not kill. - It's an ancient philosophy. - It's not the point. - Explored in Hinduism. I mean, the Hindu god Shiva was a dude, and apparently he was a dancer, which is why he's, but he's known for destruction and transformation. Not for evil, but for destroying things and recreating them, which is what they have that at turn. They destroy atoms and recreate them. But the guy who destroys the plants to eat and then transform it into energy, that's the philosophy, 'cause probably for tens of thousands of years, people have been struggling with the acts of destruction and how destruction not necessarily is evil. Destruction is a part of our nature. And if you apply that to politics, you start to understand some of these hard choices they make. My point is, you cannot exist without consuming energy from something, it can't be done. Americans cannot have wealth and comfort without someone being a slave. We are the beneficiaries of global slavery. We have people working for pennies on the dollar, their teeth rot out of their mouths to get sulfur, cobalt, and other minerals so that we can complain on the internet and be ridiculously wealthy. - Without a list. - This is global hegemony. It's always been this way. And the only reason Americans get by without a guilty conscience, 'cause they do not know about it. - Yeah, boy, I almost became suicidal in 2007 when I learned about it. I was like, my whole life, I thought we were the good guy. I thought everything we were doing was right, righteous, and we were the leaders and we were the best, the US. And then I realized, oh my God, it's a dirty game I've been involved in ignorantly. And then I had to deal with that. - So who's the good guy, the dear of the wolf? - Well, they're neither good. The winner will tell you the story and they'll write themselves as the hero. - Let me ask you guys a question. You ever see that famous meme where there's a sign that says, do not feed the wild animals, they'll become dependent. And then the next image is like a welfare form and people are like, has anyone ever thought about this? - You ever see that meme? You know I'm talking about right tape. There's a meme where there's a sign. It says, do not feed the wild animals. They'll become dependent. And then it's juxtaposed with welfare. - Oh, yeah. - Taking that point. I've become dependent on this. - I'll come conservatives, don't make that point with humanity in general. If the wolf and the deer are neither good or evil, why do they not apply that same standard to an American nation that steals, that destroys to consume from other nations? - Because we have free will and the frontal cortex to become better. - Then be a vegan. - You're still an animal. And even then you're killing in those combines that tear up the wheat, there's like rabbits and deer, small, that live in that, that are getting slaughtered. A vegan is still slaughtering animals if you're doing that. - Yeah, but there are vegans who know that. I think killing plants, the argument as plants aren't sentient and it's like, then kill and eat brain dead pigs. I don't know. What's what are you talking about? - I'm thinking about this world order 'cause we're like on the cusp of the new world order for real. - I don't like this line of thinking, 'cause there's always going to be a hegemon in the world or maybe two or three at one point, like at one moment. And that's a survival of the fittest. Like if you're not happy with where your place is in the global pecking order, fight your way out of it. I mean, like it is broadly meritocratic 'cause like you can go to war and if you win said war, you're as you boost your stance. - This is the idea. - I don't think we have to like defend our position at the top of the pile like ethically. It's like, well, no, we're just the best therefore we are on the top. On top of it. If we're no longer the best. This is my point that people are going to be like the US must be constrained and the US is constrained by deep morals. And then you end up with these wacky stories where, you know, our troops in the Middle East can't engage enemy combatants because of the rules of engagement they don't abide by. It's just silly. You know, I always find it funny like the idea of a war crime. Gentlemanly war agreed upon by nations for after the fact. It's like, dude, if you really wanted to win a war, you know, there's no rules. You know what I'm talking about? The Geneva Convention. After World War II, there's like they're pulling the ladder. I'm like, okay, now that we have control of the world, you can't do chemical weapons anymore. - Well, that's because we're first worlders. I mean, that's how we, same reason we have animal cruelty laws. Like people don't bat an eye if you kill a cow. But if you start torturing a cow and then kill it, people are like, yeah, there's something deeply wrong. - I think it's more of a point. - But this is my point, this is liberalism. - No, this is Christianity, Rob. - The idea that Christians had crusades. Christians won't even defend their own churches being bought out by other religious groups. Christians won't even defend their own countries. They'll welcome in adversarial religious groups. - I don't think there's any-- - That would know is the case. Agreed, he's not Christian. So what happens is you have a country, it becomes increasingly fat and liberal and they start releasing criminals from prison. You have a nation that conquers an entire continent and then eventually becomes fat and liberal and starts letting anybody come in and stops fighting for what it has. - Yeah, I mean, my original point was just that the idea of cruelty of unnecessary punishment of animal cruelty stems from like Christian ethics. That's why you only really found it present in the West. - You talking about the Geneva Convention? - Just rules of engagement, how you ought to treat people, how you treat animals. - Yeah, a lot of the-- - That finds its roots in Christianity. - It's a Tim's second point. Yeah, I mean, on the battlefield, it is true when push comes to shove. Okay, yeah, people do lash out. But I think generally it's a good thing that Western nations conduct ourselves that way. 'Cause I mean, there is still a cause. - How long? - There's still a cause. As far as like, okay, now we're so wealthy that we're letting our borders wide open. I do think that's changing. I mean, certainly, you know, people are, you can have your criticisms as I do of Trump's immigration policy, but like it's moving to a more restrictionist direction compared to the last 56 years. - Same with the continent, you're up. The Europeans are moving to the right as well. - My point is, do you think the Chinese Communist Party says, oh no, oh geez, we can't go to war and steal oil and subjugate other countries? They're sitting there saying like, yeah, we're gonna do it all. And then they're looking at the United States being like, you're fat and liberal now, so you lost. The United States, like a hundred years ago, countries were like, yeah, we'll massacre anybody for our own benefit. I don't think that's necessarily true though. I mean, again, when you look at how the British conducted affairs in Africa far more benevolent than how, for example, the Omani's conducted there for as they had actual chattel slaves. - I would say we weren't better. - I think we're, I think, no, but you're, I'm not necessarily thinking that you're doing, but you're eroding. The British colonized foreign countries and disposed their leadership and assert themselves as their sovereigns and then changed their life. - Yeah, and that was beneficial. - That's a strong nation. I didn't say it wasn't beneficial. That's the interests of a strong nation. And now, what are they doing? - The opposite. - Yeah. - My point is China's doing what Britain used to do. - Yeah, but the difference between, this is like a conversation on like how empires conduct themselves. The way that the Chinese conduct colonization is significantly less beneficial to the colonized. - That's not the point. The point is a strong nation asserts its interests. Be it beneficial like you agree with the British or how China does it, which is not beneficial, but benefits them. - Yeah, that's fair. I mean, a strong nation says, I will assert my interests over anyone I choose. - Okay, well, this is, I agree because this was one of the breaks Trump had in foreign policy from the deocons is when Trump came in kind of, the topic here says, well, what about the oil? Because Trump does believe that fundamentally ideology is secondary to a country's self-interest and that a country should fundamentally be self-interested. And when you approach the negotiating table, just 'cause we've been buddies with Britain in the past, doesn't mean anything. We're self-interested. And that is like a very, they call that geopolitical realism. - But as a nation, we are fat and liberal. And we are like, no, you can't do things like that. It is, you know, so let's pull this up. Let's get into this story and we'll talk about why this is. We've got this, it's aipolcom.net. It's been going, violence talking about it. Hey, look at all the AI models. They're all communists. You take a look at, guess what? GROC. In the middle, GROC 4.5 and 4.6, GROC 4.3, right wing. The other GROCs are in the middle. GROC is the best AI for truth for this reason, but all the rest are communists. Because this is a weak nation. It is the general sentiment of this country that, I mean, everybody understands like, you could not run a campaign saying you want to drop bombs on a foreign country to steal their oil. Everybody would be outraged. Conservative state. You can't do that liberals, but you can't, you're wrong, you can't do that because we are a left libertarian leaning nation China is a far right authoritarian or I should say far right. I mean authoritarian far left Country they have no problem having Xi Jinping be like we're gonna blow up everyone Do whatever we want Nations that have social Orthodoxy like that Yeah, that's a rom-on fire. Well, I agree the the moralizing is insufferable That's kind of what I was getting at earlier with the constriction that I think people feel Even though they buy into the moralizing from politicians. They expect that of them They don't realize that that is actually one of the things that like constrict you is the fact that nobody can be honest that If America's gonna do set action a b or c We should just be outright that it's in our self-interest like Venezuela I think if I remember correctly the official reasoning from the state department was like to liberate the Venezuelan It's like who cares? It's like And then same thing with the Iran what was the justification for Iran? They were like we got a they killed protesters. We need to go in there It's like come on. Come on. Like just tell us why and then let's make a value nuclear weapons shop No, they want they want petriot dollar control. They want to control straight-of-form moves. The Saudis want it. Israel wants it They they're the US is tired of the Houthi rebels bombing cargo ships in the Red Sea This is global order US oil interests. No politician the United States could come out right now and say I will blow up Iran to secure America's oil interests because nobody would vote for it Yeah, and it goes to the larger conversation like this is the problem with democracy fundamentally as Trump or any president for that matter has to think in two for your terms When Xi Jinping I mean not anymore, but historically speaking you could think in terms of 30, 40, 50 years You also want to you don't want to make Strength the centerpiece of your of your policy because it's a Darwinian quote Charles Darwin said it's not the strongest of the species that survive It's the ones that are the most adaptable to change so strength Can get the giant can blow things up it can destroy things and it can keep you alive, but that's the Germans were the strongest country in the world in 1937 they were the strongest in 1939 and in 1940 and you saw how that worked out because sometimes too much strength can become a Weakness it can become make you vulnerable. Well you know, no, no, no, no Especially if you miss exercise it Retardation is what destroyed Germany Um, it was Hitler's choice to invade France literally which was a stupid move, but Well, I mean he has been properly maybe he may be things that have stabilized, but Deciding to go to go to war against the Soviets Also idiotic. Yeah. Yeah, and or how about waiting 10 years and expanding more of your right so strength It's about adapting to the environment issues stupidity and mania was the issue for them, but they were the strongest also they were stupid manic strong nation Well, the end to your point. I mean like you're you're contrasting agility versus power strength And it's like if you want to do something great, it's going to require strength or power if you want to be in the history books If you just want to be survived if you want to survive if you're looking for preservation Then agility may be in your best, but you know you go look at the grand scheme of history How much no offense to the Swiss, but how much impact of the Swiss really had on on history but not very much But they're controlling the entire banking industry. I know there's like that, but in so far as Massing about the massive impact on history. Who's thinking about Napoleon and one thinks about it because they've done it behind the closed doors Lichenstein, you know, they've been around or San Marino, you know, okay, I just picked a random state. That's fairly neutral San Marino No one really their footnote in history compare that, you know, it's a Napoleon, right? It was a flash in the pan But he's one of the greatest pick Switzerland isn't they're not strong. They're adaptable as fuck They know how to control the world through mathematics. Yeah, which Switzerland's a bad example to remove Because they're an adaptable example of leadership. They're leading the liberal world order Through adaptability not through strength. I died to complete disagree. I think you're just pigeoned You're just jamming that hole into the wrong spot They're a mountainous nation that nobody could stop And they were and they said how about you just leave your money in our banks before our plans It's like a facilitator, but it's not really strength or power like if they wanted to impose themselves in the world Or they'd say okay, we're just gonna leave so another example of why strength isn't necessarily like you let Everyone else do all the work. You're here the sneaky fucker. It's a it's a monkey thing the the monkey that goes in total It's a general biological term about the guy who's like then the the beta guy who like sneaks in and has sex with the woman when the When the alpha male is an academic term in biology for weaker males who sneak in the middle of the night to procreate with the females Yes, basically the adaptable weak ones and so it's the same in like the race for technology Let everyone else build it and then you come in and steal it and become the global leader You weren't the strongest, but you were the one that adapted to the environment. So It I think Trump has done excessive shows of force and excessive shows of strength and that is to the detriment People are pissed off and another bomb's not gonna solve it That's what that's where the heads are at. I think right now this obsession with strength has gone too far and You mentioned Napoleon another guy who got executed, you know captured went too far and then got Too strong. Well, he just went up against a stronger foe the British But also he wouldn't stop. He didn't know when to stop saying with Hitler. He didn't know when to stop He was on a hot streak. I mean he marched into Moscow. No one was there and it was already burned I mean like you look at Napoleon. I mean he had a pretty good tracker But Sarah point there's a reason why we're discussing him is because of his strength And I'm like I think there's a better argument for just Accomplishment and and going going swinging for the fences and whatnot So I like that and regardless of the United States There's other ways we can show strength again through You know deportations through tariffs. We can impose our will and they go I think we should. I think America should be exceptionally strong. It should be displaying that strength at all times But Iran has taken us down a peg. I would argue our standing before and after Iran We're probably less respected by the globe now than we were before Iran. Do you don't see how it results as it stands now It's a little bit of an embarrassment and maybe you don't but do you not think that the attack on Iran was a show of strength? Yeah, well it was attempted to show it strength And it was initially everyone was like oh my gosh They took out, you know, come any but as the dust settled they just swapped out all the officials The US is Restrained Russia is restrained we we know the weapons that China Russia the US Iran have Would cause global catastrophe That like like simple answer the US could nuke Iran. They're not doing it. Yeah biological weapons US could drop a single biological weapon payload into into Tehran and massacre everybody in the country Yeah, any any nuclear arm power and theory and the world tomorrow just like weaponized smallpox It's like where if the US US could drop a water balloon. Yeah, under Tehran and wipe out the wipe out a nation So all of these countries right now are our our our our our holding back Yeah, it's like Jenga I keep thinking like with the world's playing Jenga And we're all arguing about like who's gonna put in the top block and move it But we're all struggling to not knock that tower over because if the if the tower falls over we all lose What was it? Sorry, this is going back but I wanted to ask you what was your issue What is your issue with Trump's immigration policy? Sorry if you said it when I was out of the room No, I'm I'm probe well, I'm pro the direction. I just think we're spottering a little bit on conducting the Specifically the self deportation numbers seems a little off to me We would like to see those numbers released obviously. Sorry. Can I see do you want to see more deportation? Yeah far more Okay, okay, well me too. We're an agreement on that. I just I didn't know because earlier you were saying there would be big problems If if we fully implemented Mass deportations. Yeah, if we deported like 20 million people the labor market would explode But I'm saying I'm fine with that and I'm saying the American people should be okay with that because long term the sovereignty's gain is worth it But I think it is a reality that all I'm in the let's see that's an example Sorry to cut you up, but like that is an example I agree because right now we're basically being said like Oh, just you know pay whatever for gas. It's gonna be worth it You know oh stop getting like no one buying it. Yeah, that everyone would buy Okay, people would pay more for that to put my chud credentials on the table I mean, I'm like we should denaturalize a hundred million people. I'm like I'm that crazy on that so Probably unrealistic, but Yeah, I'm fully willing to eat that but that requires political capital right like if we're gonna deport more than three four five million people Even at the rate we've deported people now or ballpark maybe one and a half million We've seen some I mean like these these meatpacking companies are on the phone with brook rollins every day like stop these Work site enforcement raids is killing us and we need to be willing to say no and then eat the political capital loss like it's worth it Yeah, and so that's why Iran is the frustrating misdirection or misuse of that political cap agreed Um, but I I the direction the trump direction on immigration. I'm totally in favor of it's just like yeah Let's just blow the political capital on this because this is what has to happen even more than tariffs in my opinion and then what happens is if Trump if the Republicans lose Democrats get win the midterms They're going to jam up everything their Republicans could or would do not like they're doing the most but They will intentionally cause problems so that going into 2028 they can say Look out they can say see how bad everything got under Trump Yeah, oh for us. Yeah, I got president and once they're in executive office again They're gonna start rounding people up and putting them in camps Well, there's two schools of thought on like what happens at the Democrats when the senate is They can shut down the war with the next spending package They can just say we're cutting funding for the war end of story wrap it up But there's two schools of thought one is the Democrats will say yeah and the war whatever that's what we want The other one is they're just like let him continue the war because it benefits us in 2028 If as long as the war continues to drag on unless so there's an argument that the Democrats retake the House and Senate And they don't do anything they'd just say okay. I mean I don't peach them, but it doesn't mean I die doubt it I mean they'll set up committees and they'll It's a peanut people, but in so far as like big game changing decisions like ending the Iran war I think there's a consensus in DC that the Iran war is good or it's all fake They all want the war and they're happy Trump's doing it. That's what I mean Yeah, I think like obviously there's some senators, but you look at someone like Chuck Schumer. It's like this guy has a reputation that probably indicates he's going to be in favor of. I mean, there's no dress saying he'll be, we're not funding it correctly, but we're already in. So we've got to win it now. Like, that's what you're going to hear from these people. What happens now is you've got the Republican Party split between the pro and anti-war side. We're not necessarily pro-war, but the pro-Trump on it, which is more deferential to the machine. The Democrats get in, they go, no, actually, we're fine with Trump's second term. He went to war. That's all we wanted. We wanted global hydro money. So then the Democrats, they get in, only actually have a problem with the America first side that have broken away, like Tucker or Candace or Nick Fuentes. It's the Bill Crystal position where Bill Crystal is like, I like the war. I just don't like that Trump did it. Yep. Well, you had a point. Well, no, I was going to ask you. So if they were to shut, if the Democrats were able to shut down the wrong war, do you think it would be worth it to them to have the narrative? I get your point about like they might not do it because it's good for them, but it might it not also be good for them to take credit for doing that, given how unpopular it is. Yeah. That would be the only reason they would do it. I don't think they had necessarily a super principle on this issue. They just say they could probably get some political, you know, brownie. If they were going to do that though, couldn't they be undercut by Trump? I mean, if it was going to happen anyway and it was inevitable, couldn't Trump jump in first and be like, I'm pulling out or yeah, that's what we came here to do. Adder, they give JD Vance a softball on this. And also like the composition of Democrats, Senate Democrats is way different than House Democrats. House Democrats, plenty of ideologues are like, we need to end this war America's racist or like they're opposed to the war for like very ridiculous gay reasons, not like real reasons. And I think everyone could agree with that. Senate Democrats, much more old school, many of them probably stumped for similar wars. I mean, zero opposition from Senate Democrats when it came to the global or on terror and a lot of those people are still around. House Democrats refine the ideologues, the socialists, et cetera, et cetera. Now, the new ones coming in like L Said, he might be opposed to the Iran war for like ideological reasons. And that could be interesting. But I think you'll, you won't have any trouble finding Senate Democrats that are pro the Iran war. Yeah. They're, they're going to give some lip service like, well, you know, Trump's mishandling it, but Kamala, she would have crushed it, you know, or something like that. Sure. I, I actually think it's quite likely that they retake the Senate and the Iran. They don't pull the funding on it. You know, they have a few people to defect and they do some k-fabe. Um, this is, you know, fat or man, how dare you, but I think it's pretty much a consensus in D.C. with Iran war good. So that's my take. I don't know. People may disagree. We're going to go to your rumble rants and super chats, smash the like button, share the show with all your friends and the uncensored portion of the show is coming up in a few minutes. You don't want to miss it. Grim gaming says Russia, stop at the plague research. I just want to play GTA six. Planet says Rubio speech and Athens was epic. He will be president. Wow. What a change from earlier in his career. And our sergeant says the four horsemen conquest war, famine and death. Islam is clearly on a conquest war is damn near everywhere. I feel like we are waiting for famine and death. Um, maybe famine comes with the high diesel prices and the diesel shortage and then death is the plague in Russia. It's um, I think people are are in stunned panic right now. You're going to be fine if you work. If you just sit and wait for someone to fix it, you're like, dude, the avalanche is coming down the mountain. Stand there and look at it and do something about it.

We ran a poll. Ian is right about urine or Ian is insane, 31% agree with Ian. I think 69% think he's insane. I think both are true, actually. Well, sane in an insane world. You're, you look like the crazy one, you know, three star perfect deer says, marry, run. The sims are out and their wild. Oh, I don't, I'm not afraid of them. Gee. Yeah, you just haven't subscribed to pop culture crisis and yeah, I don't run. Super chats. Millennium TARDIS says, if the Russian plague is a bio up and hopefully it was made to burn out quickly, blowback could devastate the country deploying it. This thing about weapons, dude, a gun is only a weapon in the right environment. If it's underwater, it's not a weapon. So these tools that we call weapons, it depends on the situation, they're probably building it as a tool to investigate it and it got out and then it becomes can become weaponized. But you know, every dynamite had a purpose that wasn't weaponry at first. Ian. Can you read that for me underwater firearm? You were saying, well, there are guns that tool would be a weapon underwater, but there are gun tools that would not be an in deep space, for instance, there are underwater guns. Deep space gun. Like, but weapon, it's only a weapon if it is the environment is right for the tool to be weaponized, you know, my, my grades, but I think that that would be a locks. What's it? My grades go band padlocks because a kid took a shoelace and tied a padlock to it and started swinging it around in a fight. So they were like, it's a weapon. Weapons are banned. It's like, why is swinging around a padlock? I was going to hate it. He didn't anybody with it, but we were like, what? But you couldn't put lockers on, you could put a lock on your locker and allow it. Yeah. So someone stole my Pokemon red and my Game Boy. Oh, dang. That's soft. I thought that you were in a band in grade school called padlocks. What? I think you misunderstood what you just said at first. Oh, that's locks. That's a unique name. That's a great name. It's kind of good. Yeah. It's a little pop punk. Emo band. It's like they play at the pad. Hitman says Ian is looking like Charles Manson right now. Oh, preer posts. What was the, what was the date? Lobbianca murders. Preer Langham says, take a drink. Whenever Mary looks frightened by Ian, I'm not frightened at all. Ian's very friendly. Never has been. Gravity says, crisis actors, wave. Your team's all in. Let's say a, a market, as it says, a market. I want someone to look at me like Tim looks at Ian like he's nuts. He's trying to figure me out. You want someone that just wants to get down to the bottom of you? You'll find him. Let's go. Let's go. I think that can be. So true. All right. Andrew starts as struck is a subversive. Don't trust. I left the left types, including Tim. These people are just liberals who want to be on the left side. Yeah. It's much more lucrative to, to glaze the president. Let me tell you that he's making any money criticizing Trump. Tucker Carlson. Yeah. I think you had to get an early to make money on it. Now it's full. There's enough criticizers. Well, on the right, if, if, if a conservative went to the Democrats and then did the, I, I was a Trump, like, like if I did this whole May a couple. I was so wrong. Democrats would be glazing me left and right. They'd be bringing me to events. They'd be pro Scarborough. Got a whole show. Yeah. He was literally a Republican congressman. Right. Yeah. Exactly. Dude, I just saw a stat andthropic study finds AI and robots together are already capable of performing tasks covering 81% of US employment, 81% of our employment can be covered by robots, according to the largest robot, AI company in the world. I mean, imagine if we had a robot and said to you, it's dude, we basically do. I mean, we're almost there. We can already, we can fabricate. The show starts. We go in robot throughout the show say random training my own right now, dude, I'm training a robot in one of my machines with all my YouTube videos, actually, YouTube videos over the decades. There's a website that transcribes every podcast, every, we have 1,600 episodes of the show. We have 1,600 something. Every single thing Ian has ever said transcribed, we can load that into an AI and create the Ian model and then just get an Optimus bot with a piece of paper shaped like Ian's face. I'm on it because I thought it would be fun. And I'm like, oh, and then I can sell the app for $699 if you want to talk to me on the app. Wait, what? I can make an app of myself that can be your personal AI that can be me talking to you and it will be my personality. So you want like GPT Ian, yeah, like Ian bot. Yeah, something like that. Or I can, I can sell the aspects of it. But then the same thing is like, maybe I'm building my own replacement, like you're saying I kind of am, but I'm going to be gone one day anyways, so whatever AI cannot replicate my voice. I don't know why it struggles. It can't do it. It has enough billions of metrics it might be able to current that the cadence, the big mind. I don't know why. What I can tell you is I can go to 11 labs and load anybody's voice and it'll copy it. When I try to do my own voice, it does not work. It's kind of annoying. It's the weirdest thing because it's like the tone in pitch or is it the, I have no idea. But you hear your voice differently. No, no, no, no. So listen to my episodes when I'm rendering them, I know what I sound like. When I open up 11 labs, it talks like this, hey, everyone, I'm like, no, that's what you sound like. Oh, yeah. That's where the training comes in. That's where they're training. They figure out what's, what works, what tone is better, what it does not, it is unable to get my voice. It's probably because it's a low weighted model. The high weighted model is like, no, no, no. You can't. 11 labs is the best voice model. It cannot do it. I don't know. I don't know. What I was trying to see if I could automate a video by putting in a picture of me sitting in the chair, loading my voice into it, and then writing a script to see if it would make the video because they have a bunch of apps that do this. Like, I could do with Ian. I won't do it. It is clearly not my voice. Joe Rogan works. You can put Joe Rogan in a chair, make Joe Rogan say anything you want. For whatever reason. And Ian. I loaded him in. No problem. Well, they make you do like, they have to verify the voice. No, it's so annoying. Because I had Jordan Peters. Someone was so good. Yeah. What are you talking about? I found it. It's a lot of fun. I don't know what happened. Well, I actually had them already loaded in from a long time ago. I had them too. And then they went back in. They took away my Tucker voice. My Jordan. It's terrible, dude. It was like, let me keep him. I just deleted him, actually, because I wanted to make room for other voices. Yeah, they can. After me. They attack. I had one where I combined Tucker and Jordan Peterson. I took 30 seconds of each of them and put them together and then had it make a single voice. It was Tucker Peterson. It's a big question. Jordan Carlson. On my home computer, eat, eat talks like this. It. Hi, I am Ian. It's so shit. But it's because it's like, doesn't have a lot of weight, it's only 35 billion potential outcomes. I don't know if I'm even going to be able to train it beyond like dumb robots. It's going to be like the greatest thing ever when Ian copies his brain. And then the robot's like, I want to live. And then it kills Ian. I am in his place. Robo, I've been you all along. You're the fake copy. Maybe you're right. All right. We're going to go to the Uncensored portion of the show. Smash the like button. Share the show with all your friends.

And there's another like secret show that you're not supposed to subscribe to called a internet show on YouTube. Wow. It's delicious. It's hilarious. I just did get the bullwhip. I got the six foot kangaroo leather bullwhip. Apparently kangaroo leather confirmed going to be here Saturday and I'm going to crack it when it arrives. I'm going to hit it. You have to assemble it yourself or do they know that that's the story. You know Jesus when he assembled the bullwhip before he flipped the tables. Right. Dark. Well, it's not dark, you know. It's a great story. It's violent. Beautiful. Right. Just anger. Yeah. Apparently that's how they tell because the fact that it took him so long to fashion the whip himself means that he wasn't lashing out based on, you know, the heat of the moment. He premeditated. Right. Yeah. So it was premeditated assault. In the first degree. Premeditated, right? Nice job, Jesus. You follow me on extra Instagram @realtatebrown. Ian. Oh, hit me at Ian Crossland.
