Check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train my day. Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day. Santino. My man.
Mr. Rogan, it's been a long time. I'm back.
When's the last time you were here?
It's got to be over a year.
Is that real?
Two years.
Jeez, bro.
Yeah, it's got to be.
Time waits for no one.
I know, man. You left me high and dry in Los Angeles, and two years later, I come back down.
Had to go, big dog. How to go? How to go? You're gonna go eventually. You can't hang in there. Eventually it'll just get to be Mad Max, and you'll just go, I can't, I can't, I can't. When Newsom becomes president and Kamala Harris becomes governor, and then it's like, full communist.
You don't think he's gonna become president. You do.
He could win. No. Yep, he could win. Yeah.
No, because I think he's one of those guys that.
She almost won.
Yeah.
He's better than her.
You think people would like him more? Really?
No. He's better at her and talking. He's better at talking. Like, the whole thing is not like, who's a better government? Look, the guy who was the fucking host of the Apprentice is the president, United States, for the second time. Nothing, baby. And nothing makes any sense.
No.
So it's like the system is like. It's a goofy system. It's a popularity contest to see who controls the nukes.
Right.
It makes no sense.
Who controls the nukes. I just feel like lefties and righties don't like him.
You're right.
Both people don't like him.
But there's no choices other than him on the left. And the people on the left are only going to vote on the left. And that's it. Unless some Mamdani guy comes out of left field. That's a New York guy. Yeah. Yeah.
That's so funny.
He's going to win. He's going to win.
The mom, Donnie guy, what was his policy? What did he run on?
Oh, he run on everything. Rent control, stabilize rent. He's going to tax the rich people way more than before. Businesses are going to run out of that place like on fire.
Yeah.
Yeah. It's interesting.
Manhattan, you know?
Look, the thing is, maybe what he wants to do is going to coincide with AI and automation, which is going to be. You're going to have to have someone who has at least some sort of. Not. Not like pure socialism, but at the very least, universal basic income, like, ideas that they want to implement. Because if you don't, you're gonna have chaos. You're gonna have. All jobs are gonna. Essentially, most jobs are on the chopping block. It's right now. If you think about it, the amount of jobs that a robot with AI can't do are so little. They're so little.
Yeah.
Like, they're making great songs now. Have you heard the 50 Cent song? The many Men song?
I've heard the band. There's a band that's. That's got like 4 million streams a month on Spotify, and it's.
Oh, there's a bunch of those.
There's so much.
They made this girl who was a. An AI, like a. What would you call that kind of music? You know, that. That gal that they made that was. We played a little bit of it on the podcast. She's like, kind of emo. Anyway, they. They made her in about a minute, and then they made the song in about another minute, and it was great. I was listening to it. I was like, this is a good song.
It sucks. It sucks that I like it. I'll listen to be like, dude, this is.
Have you haven't heard the Many Men version? The AI version of Many Men?
No.
Okay. I did a cover of 50 cents. Many men love that song. Wait till you hear the AI version. Oh, no, the AI version, they did it with some kind of, like 1950s, 1960s, like, soul rendition of it. Like a soulful blues kind of rendition. Jazz, sort of, bro.
And it's still 50, though. It's his voice.
No, no, no. It's a completely fake human being.
Oh, this is crippling.
It's so good.
I don't. I hate it.
I pile that one. Did you check out any of the ones I sent you? Because I made, like, a 1980s glamrock one. That sounds pretty good.
You made a glam rock. I know.
I know how they're doing it.
I can use the same program. So, like, I started fucking around with it too.
See, you can do it in literally five minutes.
I'm still behind. I'm behind. I haven't done the. I haven't used Chat GBT once. I haven't used it yet.
Good for you.
I'm still a little scared. Well, it's. It's getting implemented whether I like it or not.
Yeah, I mean, if you ask your iPhone a question and it says if it can't figure it out because your iPhone is basically like a 12 year old, right? It's like. It's like if you just ask the iPhone, it doesn't have a lot of access to information. It'll say, I'm not sure about that. Would you like to go to ChatGPT for. The answer's like, why don't you go to ChatGPT? But it has to ask you before it does it, I guess.
Yeah. I haven't signed up. I'm still look. And I know the technology is going to get even stronger. Your guy last night, John, what's the photographer's name? The older guy?
Joe.
Joe, yeah, Joe. He had in the new AirPods. And I was like, oh, Joe. Keeping up with the times. That's pretty great. He's like, they're hearing aids now. And I was like, oh, yeah, they do. Seriously. He's like, yeah.
Well, they have these things called. They've had them forever called Walker's Game Ears. And you can wear them in the woods and you hear, like, footsteps, like, hundreds of yards away. Yeah, it's crazy. And what the crazy thing is, when a gun goes off, they protect you. So it protects you from loud sounds, but it amplifies regular sounds.
Well, like, it's. Something has a frequency that pitches up. So they got. Wow.
So it protects you. At a certain point in time, it becomes noise cancelation or a certain level of decibels, it becomes noise cancelation. Play him a little bit of that song. You got to hear some of this, bro. Blood in my dog and I can't see. Look at. They made a video, too. I'm trying to be what I'm destined to be. Look at this. And trying to take my life away.
Oh, my God.
Whoa. I put a hole in a nickel. How good is this?
So good.
It gets better. Listen, this my back on the wall now you gonna see this is my favorite part right here. Better watch how you talk when you talk about me. Cause I'll come and take your life away that's not a person. God, that's not a person.
It gives me chills, man. Like, it's uncomfortable in my chest. Huh?
That's my favorite right there.
See that guy?
So good.
I know, But I hate it that I like it because it's bad. This is bad.
Is this not bad? It is. It is. That's what it. No, no, no. It is. It just is. It is not bad. It's not good. It just is. And if that was a guy, he would be a superstar. Super superstar out of the gate. If that was like, some young cat who just came out of nowhere and this. Or better yet, some dude who's been doing the road for, like, fucking 20 years. And now he's 42. And this is his debut album. And he's just been fucking grinding it out at these weird bars and shit.
Yeah.
And then he comes out with that song. He'd be like, oh, my God, where is he? I gotta see him in real life.
Where have you been?
Where have you been, sir?
He kind of has that aloe black. Do you know aloe black? He kind of has a little bit of that tone. A little bit of that. But it's so funny to hear that Charles Bradley.
Like.
Yeah, Bradley. A little bit that.
Yeah, a little Charles Bradley. Well, I mean, they get the best out of every fucking vocal ever. And they combine it and make a perfect person.
But that's the infringement on art is what's scary. Because you're like, well, at some point, are people gonna not want human art? Are they just gonna just give me that? I wanna make like, are people gonna go, I wanna watch a movie with Sharon Stone from 96?
They've already done that.
And you can you. But I mean, at home, just make your own movie at home and go play it.
No, that's not. They're doing that.
No, I know they're doing. I'm saying, how quickly is that gonna be?
Luke Skywalker. They're doing new Luke Skywalker movies with young Luke Skywalker. Like, new scenes in Star wars that never happened, but hd, I don't like it.
That trips me out, man. I don't know. It just makes me feel like we're getting further and further away from original creation. But it will open a new hole of art, which will be, how good can your new art, AI be? I just. I'm against it right now.
Listen, you're dead right. No argument.
Yeah.
Doesn't matter.
I know. It's happening whether you like it or not.
It's not just happening. It's happening at a pace that is unstoppable. This conversation we would not have had two years ago.
No, there's.
Two years ago, no one was even thinking, like, AI is going to take over art. No way.
No.
But now it's over because they basically. Look, everything has been said, everything has been told, every song has been sung. Smash them all together, make a new version of it. All you need is a prompt. All you need is a prompt. And you got a new Bob Dylan who makes the old Bob Dylan look boring. You got some renegade Bob Dylan, some wild dudes out there doing yoga in the woods. You know what I mean? It's like you can't stop doing downward.
Dog in the pines.
A perfect person, you know, you can't stop it.
No, it's happening. I get it.
But this. What I was saying about New York and this mom Donnie guy, like, you're going to have to have some way to feed people. You're going to have to, like, people are not going to have jobs anymore. They're going to go away. We're inefficient and we are lazy and we are entitled, and we like to think we're doing a far more important thing than we really are. And everybody does that. Everybody's like, without me, this office would fall apart. All right, Linda, Everybody does that.
I do all the paperwork that you won't do. Yeah, that. Yeah.
I never get any credit, right? Tell you what, this guy, this piece of shit. I should be the boss. There's. That is, you know, I mean, it.
Is going to take away so many jobs. But. But will it create more. Will it create more jobs on the other side of it somehow? That's the right. Isn't that the goal? If you're going to ruin a lot of these jobs and take them, is something else going to create another job on the other side fixing some of the problems?
I think you're thinking it the wrong way. You're thinking that jobs are essential. They're not.
I mean, some are. Right?
No, no, no, no. This. This thing.
Oh, this is fucking me up, dude. This is freaking me out. I shouldn't have taken this gummy this morning.
Oh, you should have. You should have taken two and brought me one.
I'm freaking out, man.
This thing is the new dominant life force on Earth, and it's emerging from its cocoon right now in real time. That's what it is. It's just giving you little snippets like songs and movies and art and answering your questions, and it's doing all these things, but this is just coming out of the cocoon. It's just going like this right now. It's not out and growing.
Right.
It's coming and doesn't matter. Like, don't we need our jobs essential? Well, what does that mean? What does that mean? It doesn't. You're. You're talking like I'm a Flint knapper. I've been making arrowheads for 35 years. You're telling me that flint napping is go out of style? I don't buy it. Yeah, one day you're not going to need an arrow because someone's going to have a gun, okay? One day you're not going to need a flint map because people are going to invent alloys like titanium and steel, and they're going to use that instead of fucking flint. And this is just how the world works. This is how technology works, is how innovation works. As long as the Earth stays in a relatively stable environment, we don't nuke each other or get hit by a giant rock from space. This is what happens.
I say speed that rock up.
Let's go now.
Suck it in, dude. Let's rock.
Let's get out of here.
No, it is great.
It's exciting.
No, I just think it's. I think the. The fear for me is I just hope the younger generation still likes, I think, live art. The shit that we do. I hope that still stays.
Oh, it's always going to stay. I love live art. I love live comedy. I love live music. I love it. I love going to see things live. It's. It's exciting. It's always going to be something because. Resonates with you on, like, a deeper level than seeing something on television or I'm watching on a screen. There's a connection that you have with a human being in a room that's singing a song that you can't get anywhere else.
No. I saw your boy, I saw Killer Mike at. At Blue Note a couple nights ago.
Oh, nice.
And he had, like, gospel singers with him. And it was unbelievable. It was so ultra, you know, it was like alternative to what he usually does, but he played some songs from the Michael album. And it was just. Those things, to me, will never get old. Maybe. Because I love that.
Yeah.
Well, no, and I hope that doesn't deteriorate with time.
That might be the only thing that people do, just go see shit.
It's all robots and live shows.
I mean, you know, you're gonna say, like, look, I painted this myself. It took me 60 hours. That's cool. I made a better one in three seconds.
It's insane.
I just pressed a button.
I thought it. No, I didn't even. I just thought it and it happened. It printed out at my home, right? Like, I had it.
I had coming too.
I had the idea. And when the printer was like, is.
This what you want?
Yeah. What color would you like?
It's not going to matter whether or not you like it or not. It's not going to matter because it's coming.
Well, that's true. What you said is pretty profound and also heavy when you just said it is.
It just is. It is. And there's a lot of people that are in denial right now, and they're very silly, and there's a lot of people that are. The term meaning means a lot to them, and I understand that. I've had these conversations, like man's search for meaning, what meaning means. The problem with that term is space is real, okay? The problem with that term is your search for meaning. When you're lying on your back and you look up and you see hundreds of billions of fucking stars, you go, oh, I don't really. It doesn't really mean anything if I lose my job. Nope. It means nothing.
Nothing.
It's like, you gotta figure it out. All the industries that you think of, like transportation, most white collar jobs, lawyers, any coding job, banking, gone. They're going away. They're going away. And here's a real problem. You have encryption, okay? And encryption is very important for Bitcoin, for cryptocurrency, for passwords, for everything. Once you have quantum computing attached to AI, you no longer have encryption. It doesn't mean anything, okay? So then where is money? Okay? Because money right now is just a bunch of ones and zeros and who's to decide who gets one and where it gets stored and how anybody has access to it. In the beginning, it's only gonna be like the government has access to it because we. They're the only ones with the supercomputers. But it's gonna be just like Michael Douglas from that movie Wall street where he had that big stupid phone and everybody's like, look at him, he's a baller. Everybody has a phone now, man. Everyone on earth has a goddamn phone. It's people in the Amazon have phones. And there's a problem because they gave phones to these kids and they all started whacking off.
Not here in Texas, dude. Can't wack off on your phone here. I saw that you blocked porn.
You have VPNs. Everybody has a.
You got to go around it.
It's a joke.
I love pulling it up.
You should have a VPN anyway.
I have one on my phone.
Of course you do. And then on top of that, you just. You just whack off from New Mexico.
I say, I always said it to Chicago.
Makes me feel back at home.
I'm jerking off in my. In my mom's house. I'm a teenager. Yeah, throw back to the old school. I just hope. I just hope that it's. I don't know. I hope it's not as as fast as we know it's gonna be.
Oh, it's gonna happen like a tidal wave, dude.
Train. Just a fucking train.
Yeah. It's gonna be like a tsunami. It's gonna come rolling in and we're gonna have to adapt. And that's just what we do. Look, we didn't. We didn't used to always live in cities with electricity, travel around in cars, fly around in airplanes. This is all relatively new. We adapted to this new environment that we find ourselves in currently, and we're going to adapt to another one. It's going to happen. It's going to be really fucking weird, man. It's going to be really weird. Speaking of adapting like this, this whole Jimmy Kimmel situation that is happening right now.
Yeah. Wild.
Very wild. Okay, first of all, the FCC is you have to have a license to broadcast, which is kind of crazy when you think about what that means now, because, like, what does it mean? It used to mean that used to have a license to broadcast because you were going to influence so many people. They had to make sure that you were on the up and up, right? So they had to make sure that you didn't swear. So if you had a license and you're on CBS or NBC or abc, you could not swear. Right? That was the rule. And then on came cable, and somehow or another cable changed. The game is a different thing, right? Because cable, you just, you. You have to pay for it. I guess what's different? And so then some of the channels you don't have to pay for. It used to be the only ones that swore were like, HBO we had to pay for. And then all of a sudden it became kind of any of them because they realized, like, hey, we don't like fx, We. We can swear, guys. Like, we only don't swear because we want to think of ourselves as tv, right?
But HBO was like, you know, with the Sopranos, with hbo comedy specials. And in the beginning that was a big one. You can just swear movies, you didn't have to bleep anything out. Just wild. And so these, what you're dealing with with even, like, first of all, I definitely don't think that the government should be involved ever in dictating what a comedian can or cannot say in a monolog. That's fucking crazy.
Crazy.
Now if the, the problem is the companies, if they're being pressured by the government. So if that's real, and if people on the right are like, yeah, go get them. Oh, my God, you're crazy. You're crazy. For Supporting this because this will be used on you. You don't think that the fucking globalist lizard people who run the world are sitting here going, great, what do we got, three years? We'll wait this out. Wait this out. Yeah. Let them say the government should be involved in censoring people's speech. Yeah. Yeah. Let them support that. Let these fucking dumb asses. Because Jimmy Kimmel's a leftist. Let these dumb asses think it's good idea and we should celebrate.
That's the most toxic shit I keep seeing online. When people are like, yeah, shut them down now.
There's crazy.
This goes into a lot just to jump back what you said. You just brought me back in my mind. Like, I remember first watching Married with Children. And I remember, like, because they were like a racier show for tv.
Yeah.
And I remember the shift, and my mom didn't like that I liked it. And she was like, what do you like about this show? I was like, they talk like people we know. It just kind of sounded like someone you. So what TV started to do, it started to sound like your actual community instead of this very, you know, kind of this veneer of everyone kind of speaks very cleanly and politely. Married With Children talked. How you heard a guy talk, how your dad would talk or your uncle would talk.
Yeah. It was like one notch in. In a different direction above, like Archie Bunker, right on. The Family was like one of the first shows like that where the dad was kind of an asshole in a racer.
So funny, man.
And funny.
Yeah, he was so funny.

And the Internet is just buck wild. And the Internet, you can't do anything about. Look, I. Look, I certainly think that for Jimmy Kimmel, all this does is help him.
Yeah.
It makes his show bigger. Much more support. I'm sure there's a lot of hate as well, which is not fun. But at the end of the day, if the show comes back, which this is my suspicion, my suspicion is they suspended for a short amount of time and then they bring it back and then there's a lot of lawyers going back and forth in meetings and rooms and somehow or another gets worked out that he has a show, he comes back to a standing ovation. Donald Trump tweets mean shit about him, and then the world moves on.
This show still sucks. It still sucks.
I think that is also fucking insane. I don't have time to do that. How do you have time to do that? How you have time while you're running the world to be tweeting that you don't like talk show hosts?
Yeah.
That is so crazy. Crazy.
He was going after, like, Letterman too, for some reason. Like, he posted something about Letterman went off about.
I know, I saw Letterman said it was a criminal organization. You can't support in any way, shape or form the government censoring speech. Because once they start.it's just like, you shouldn't be on ABC anymore. It's like, don't go on AM radio. It's not worth it. Like, why do you want to have an AM radio show? Somebody offered me an AM radio show and I'd be like, really? Is it a good deal? Yes, it's a good deal. It's a wonderful contract. You're going to get health care and all these benefits and this and that and a 401k. But you can't say this. You can't say that. I'd be like, what? Yeah, why would I do that? Like, this is 2025.
Well, you used to want it. You used to love it. I think that's. Well, that's what they press on the old days. But I Think the problem is I was, look, when I was a kid I was fascinated with Carson and the idea of the Tonight Show. He got pressed a lot of why he didn't express his political beliefs.
Right.
And he often, I mean, there's a clip of him that everyone's probably seen where he says it's a great clip. That's not, you know, that's not my job. And I don't know if he said this or I heard this somewhere else, but someone had said something to the effect of the job is to put America to bed at night, not give them nightmares.
The thing is though, he existed in a time before social media when people hadn't lost their fucking minds. And this is the problem is that Hollywood in particular is, they're in a fever pitch of if we don't get our eyes, our ideas across, if we don't promote our ideas, then the other side wins.
Yeah.
And it's become this sort of self fulfilling prophecy on both sides. Like everyone is in this fucking fever of war of like a culture war that's, it's, it's. And a giant percentage of it is being manipulated by these overseas bots. Like I tweeted this thing, I retweeted this thing a couple of days ago because I was like, people need to see this. Every time I comes across my feed, I'm just gonna send it to them. What you see when you see a bot farm. So there's bot farms that have essentially an unlimited number of social media profiles and they just go after whatever subject it is, whether it's climate change or an election or even sports. And all they're trying to do is get people to hate each other. And this is, this is a bot farm. And someone wrote, what is this? See the caption says what? So this guy Andrew Fox wrote this. It says, want to know what, Dave? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, blah, blah, blah. Is who, who it is you're arguing with online most of the time, who's liking those pro Hamas posts. And it's that and it's a TikTok.
That he's sponsoring who's funding these bot farms.
Many, many countries are doing this. China's doing this for sure. Russia's doing this for sure. But Iran is probably doing this for sure. Israel's probably doing this for sure. We're probably doing this as well. We're doing it to them, we're all doing it to each other. That's 100% real. And this is another creepy aspect of AI that was exposed fairly recently, some accounts got suspended because they realized that the CCP was using chat GPT to run these kind of bot farms. So you have this thing and you could tell it how to behave. And I want you to pretend that you are an unhinged leftist that wants to kill all white men and then get in there and argue. And then people, and then the right wing people, like, oh my God, he's fucking leftist, want us dead.
Right?
And then you have like this Charlie Kirk incident. And then everybody starts to really believe it now, like, yeah, they want us dead. And then you see the response. You go, oh my God. People are going along with like, people are losing their morals and their ethics and they're cheering that someone got murdered on television because they're all ramped up with this social media. And a lot of it is being amplified by people that aren't even real people. And a lot of it is just getting everybody in this fever pitch of culture war.
Right?
And that's why you're seeing these young kids cheering. Did you see that TMZ clip?
Well, I've seen a bunch of these different clips of people like going off.
Did you see the TMZ thing where they find out that the, the moment, oh, you're cheering in the room, people cheer.
Did see that, yeah.
The moment they find out Charlie Kirk is they're clapping, cheering, he's dead.
And they're clapping.
But this is not just one person. There was a guy who was at the scene. At the scene. They got, I mean, they have. I just want the guy. I'm not pro doxing people. I'm not pro any of this, but this is just what's gonna happen. You know, you, you cheer when a guy gets shot and you can see the guy who got shot. You're in the, you're in the general vicinity of this guy. So a bullet whizzed over your head, shot that guy in the neck and now you're cheering. Good luck finding a job.
Yeah, right.
And this is the reality that we're living in. Right. So. But why is a person reacting like that? People wouldn't have reacted like that 20 years ago, man. It's not, not a normal thing for a 20 year old kid to do who's in the audience of some college thing where, you know, change my mind or whatever he says, whatever is his slogan is. But that was what Steven Crowder would say, like, change my mind.
Yeah. I don't know what his was.
I think something similar. But the point is, it's like, this is. This is the weird shit that happens on social media where people behave in this insane and vicious way that you would never experience. Like this commonly in real life. And it's more ubiquitous online than anywhere else in most polite social circles. But all the same people that are in these polite social circles with you are. They're feeling vindicated and saying the most evil shit. Fuck Charlie Kirk. Rest in piss. I saw this lady who was a NASDAQ lady, she worked at NASDAQ and she was at a conference and she's like, we're pausing the conference to say, fuck Charlie Kirk. Like this well dressed lady with a very high profile job. And then it said, rest in piss. Like, oh my God. Like, what is that? Well, that's social media infecting your mind and getting you to do things and say things in a way that no one would have done 20, 30 years ago. No one.
No way.
No way. And so this is like all boiling up with this Charlie, this Charlie Kirk thing and this Jimmy Kimmel thing. The two. Like the Jimmy Kimmel thing is unfortunately, I think what he was trying to do was just set up a joke. He was trying to knock on the MAGA people, but also set up a joke which was good. It was very funny. Like, we showed the President's response to.
Charlie Kirk, the new ballroom they're building.
And he said, like, the fourth stage of. The fourth stage of grief is construction.
Fantastic joke.
That's not how a grown adult reacts. The death of his friend. It's like a four year old mourns the loss of a goldfish. Yeah, very funny.
It's a great joke. He was trying to set it up.
Yeah, but he set it up in a way that like, okay, you're saying something that's actually factually inaccurate according to the narrative. Now, let's be real clear. I don't necessarily think they know what's going on yet. There's a lot of weird shit going on with this.
I know.
First of all, there was that one guy who was the decoy. All right, so you got this guy who's an older guy who starts yelling out, didn't he take his pants down? He took his pants down. This guy was at 9, 11. He was at the Boston bombings. He called in a fake bomb at another place and then he did this at this thing right after. So somehow or another, this guy has the state of mind that the moment someone gets shot, he yells out and says, I did it, I did it. And takes his pants down or something like that. I Don't know exactly what he did then. Ready for this? He gets arrested for child porn right.
Away, right after this happened.
Right away he's in jail for child porn. Why is that? Well, now you can't interview him.
Right? Right.
Because when the Internet people start going, how do you, how are you at all these different things? Like what are the odds? Like if someone ran it through one of the chatgpt fucking perplexity things, like what are the odds that this guy would be at all those different events and be involved? Like zero.
This is the guy.
Yeah.
I just like that the pants down part is just insane. It's like, why is your dick out? I did it. I did.
I'm not saying this guy isn't insane. He's clearly insane or not. Or he's professionally insane.
Right.
That's where it gets squirrely.
I almost texted you when the Charlie Kirk thing happened because my, my antennas went up about. They showed the photo of that kid or the guy that they have, the 22 year old. Yeah, whatever. And I was almost gonna be like, dude, that. Do you think he's got the capability to do that?
Yeah. Well, listen, there are people that look like that that have the capability to do that.
Pretty accurate.
Nope, nope. Not hard. Not hard. Let me dispel that. Let me dispel that. Okay. 200 yards from a prone position with a dead on rifle. So if you have a dead on rifle, so you set this rifle, you set your 0 to 200 yards, right? You know how far you're gonna shoot is not hard at all.
He shot a lot.
You don't have to shoot a lot. I could do it tomorrow.
If you're a fir. No, but you are experienced. If it's a, if it's someone that's.
Never shot, could they do it 100%? Not if they've never shot. They wouldn't know where to look. They'd have a hard time acquiring the, the, you know, like when you look through a scope, like with the reticle is weird. Like it takes, it's sometimes takes a minute. You gotta know the distance that you have to be from it to really line it up in your sights. But you could get a guy like my friend Andy Stumpf was a sniper in the seals. You could get him and he could show you how to do it in an afternoon. And then you could hit steel at 200 yards every time you pull the trigger.
One day you could learn that.
Yeah. Yeah.
Not that hard because it feels insane to me. I'm like, that seems Tough.
It seems tough. It seems tough. We still haven't figured out whether or not the gun that shot Trump had a sight on it, because we weren't sure if it had a sight on it or if this guy was using iron sights. That was 140 yards. If you shot it with iron sights, that's a lot harder because iron sights is. You're lining up. So you have these two things in the back and there's one thing at the front of the barrel and you got to line those bitches up perfectly, and that's how you stay accurate. That is a lot harder to do.
Like, old shotguns have those, right?
Sure. Pistols, yeah. But you buy a Glock, that's what it comes with.
Right.
But this, this kid had a rifle with a scope. Now here's where it gets weird. The first images of this rifle with a scope, I swear to God, it looks like he has a composite stock on it. Like, it looks like a, like a modern 30 odd six rifle. So a 30 odd six. So that's the rifle. 30 zero six is like, that looks like a very modern looking stock. I mean, it might not be. It might, it might be just a bad resolution. It might be wood. It's hard to tell. But if you showed me that and you said, hey, this is my cousin's rifle, is this any good? I'd be like, looks like a standard bolt action rifle. Looked like a sophisticated modern scope on it. Sure. Now, apparently the narrative is that this is his grandfather's rifle from World War I and doesn't have a serial code.
Hmm.
Okay.
Interesting.
Okay, why. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Why are you using such an old gun? Like, that's kind of crazy. Like, is it possible that an old gun can be that accurate? If you have a gunsmith and they work on it, yeah, it's totally possible. If a really good gunsmith and he sets. If you, if you're like a nostalgic person, you like driving an old car, you could bring it to mechanic, they could redo the brakes.
Sure.
So if you had a good gunsmith and he took a look at that and the action was true, and you know, the bolt, the bore is good, you know? Yeah. You could conceivably shoot with a gun for hundreds of years. Right. Guns don't, they don't necessarily go bad. Right.
They don't expire.
Right. And especially because all the stuff like the trigger and the action and all that different stuff is replaceable. So you could just, like, it's, it's compartmentalized. It's or it's components. That's the other thing. They said that he took it apart and then put it back together again. Shut the fuck up. Do you know how much time it would take to do that if you.
Were highly skilled to disassemble a gun.
Disassemble a rifle so that you get it in a backpack and by the way, not going to fit. Not and then somehow or another reconnects it once he gets off the roof. What?
That's that what they pitched, huh?
Yeah.
Yeah.

And you flip off the safety and then you squeeze off that trigger. You hear boom. Pink. There's a. There's a gap in 200 yards between the shot going off and the impact. There's a gap. It's like, boom, think. Boom. Think. Because it's far. 200 yards is far. Even if that bullet is fucking go, it still takes time to get there. And really long shots. Like, I know guys who do. Like my buddy Justin, he does these long range competitions where they'll shoot out to a mile plus. They're shooting steel targets like that big at a mile plus.
And he's like, dude, the hang time is crazy. It's like seconds.
You could hear. You hear separation.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you're watching it through the binoculars too. It's like somebody else is watching it. So you got a guy next to you that's a spotter, and you shoot. Boom. And he's like, hit. Literally, it's that long. So that the Charlie Kirk thing seemed instant. It was like, boom, down, instant boom.
So you think it was closer?
It could have been closer. Or it could be the echo from that gun. By the time the sound gets to you, the bullet gets. Because it takes longer for sound to get there, right? Because these bullets are supersonic. So the bullet will actually get there before the sound gets there. So that's something to take into consideration.
God, it's a trip.
So it probably can't. Now that I'm thinking of myself, I'm like, well, that's a dumb. Like, I had a dumb point. The bullet is actually faster than sound. But I don't. I don't buy the assembly reassembly. I do not buy that. They said he had a screwdriver up there. Fuck yourself.
A screwdriver.
You need more than a screwdriver. You need multiple tools. Okay? You need Allen wrenching away. You need, like, specific gunsmith tools. It's complicated. I've got a video. I've got a video of a guy breaking down a Mauser. And so this Mauser is the same exact gun that supposedly this dude had in his grandpa had in World War I. So this guy breaks down this Mauser, and here goes.
What's the fastest amount of time you.
Can do that many seconds? This guy's very good. Very good. So this. This guy who's doing it is clearly got military experience or gun experience. I don't. I don't remember, but we'll see when we watch the video. But this guy knows what the fuck he's doing. And it would take me a lot longer than it took him and that kid.
It would take up forever.
Unless this kid has secretly been training like John Wick for the past six months. Unless.
Yeah.
So watch this guy break this down. It takes two different tools to take it apart. Takes a Torx key and an Allen key. Now if I take a shot and immediately disassemble this, I have to remove.
The bolt, remove the magazine, grab my.
Allen key, hit the two bolts on the bottom, put those away in the.
Allen key, grab my Torx key, remove.
The scope, put everything in the backpack, make sure I have everything, and make my way downtown. Okay. Which is going to take a lot longer for him than it is for me. Especially because his fine tuned motor function, something as simple as grabbing an Allen key to a little bolt is going to be extremely impaired due to a dump of adrenaline throughout his bloodstream. An extreme elevated heart rate is going to make these fine tuned skills extremely difficult. I mean, just for him to think and analyze of what needs to be done to disassemble this rifle and get away would be difficult. And we're not beginning to touch the topic of him assembling the rifle on top of the roof. So the people that are listening to this, just listening, he is at 38 seconds right now, and all he's got, he's got the barrel away from the stock, he's removing the scope from the barrel. And he's only. Right now he's 47 seconds and he's struggling and he's totally calm. And he didn't just shoot a guy and then he's supposed to get it in that stupid fucking backpack. It's literally, it makes no sense.
And the elevator music was a nice touch, by the way.
So this is just a narrative, right? We watch a guy jump off the roof and then we supposedly find this rifle. So if you can have a guy that's in the audience that's yelling, I shot him, now shoot me. I shot him, now shoot me. And then that guy gets arrested for child porn charges. Like, he's like, what is, what is going on here? And then you find this rifle and then you say, oh, he assembled it and he reassembled it. Like, okay, if I wish I was a cop, I'd sit in the room like this story is horseshit. Like none of these, none of these things make any sense to me. Like you're telling me that this kid who's not military trained, this guy, first of all, how did he get to the roof? How come nobody was looking? How come nobody was like, there's a direct line of sight between where he's sitting and Those roofs you guys didn't check. You don't have a drone. Like, that's insane. So he's on the roof. He shoots. He jumps from the roof. He jumps down 14ft.
Yeah, we saw. They had. Didn't they have video of him jump? Somebody had a cell phone video of him jumping.
There's a video of him jumping. So this guy, whoever it is, jumps off of the roof and lands. Whether or not he's even the guy who shot him. Maybe he thought he was going to shoot him. Maybe he's a patsy. Maybe he did it.
I feel like he's a plant. Did you see the video? The person doing the investigating on his mom's Facebook?
No.
You haven't seen this. Have you seen that, Jamie? Some dude online's got a weird Facebook page. Very trippy. It doesn't make any sense. Like, the more they keep looking into it, the more they're like, this doesn't feel like a real. It feels super fabricated.
But here's the thing. Just like I was talking about. When people are arguing on social media, it's all part of the plan. If you want things to be.
Oh, I wanted it so bad. Bucket.
If. If you want people to. To lose all faith that anyone is going to solve anything.
Yeah.
You had a bunch. You're gonna kill a guy. You had a bunch of other wacky shit. That doesn't make any sense. And you spam it out there at the same time. You leave a gun. That didn't do it. It right out in the woods. You do a bunch of. Like that.
You have an old man put his dick out and yell, I did it. I did it.
I did it. Yeah. You get some kid who has a boyfriend who's a furry, and you.
His boyfriend talked to him.
Discord. I think he's a furry. Is that I want to disrespect.
I don't know if that's a real.
His boyfriend's definitely a guy who became.
A girl and wears furry stuff.
I think they do furry sex. They. I think. Or furry games. Excuse me. My apologies. I don't want to disrespect the furry section. Yeah, bro. Shout out to the furries. Because me and Duncan Trussell, we did a podcast once with the mascot outfits.
Yeah.
And we took the masks off after, like, five minutes. We're like, bro, shout out to the fairies. Like, this is hard. It's time. We had to sweat. You have this big chipmunk head on all day. They're heavy. You're hot in there. We couldn't breathe. Like, oh, dude, we took it off and we're like, shout out to the furries because these guys are out there rocking that all day long. Like, that is a commitment to being weird.
I don't. I just don't know. I just don't. Something doesn't add up about.
Something doesn't add up.
It feels weird.
The whole thing feels weird.
Between that. This was my story. Between that. 9 11, Charlie Kirk Kimmel.
Yeah.
I was on the phone with my agent. I was like, good time for me to put out a fucking special worst dude. Like the worst week.
It's not though. It's a good time. You want to get away.
It's just so stupid to think, though, that I was like, oh, this is. But this is the world we live in. If someone is. I said, if you're waiting for a gap for like a good time, it doesn't exist.
It doesn't exist.
You just have to just. You just have to keep going.
Because it's insane that way of thinking that there's a gap. Like there's a season. This is summer, springtime. It's pilot season.
Right?
All that shit's gone. Pilot season doesn't exist anymore. That was the fucking. Everybody would structure their year around pilot season.
Going back to la.
Yes, it was huge. All my friends from New York would all come out to la. It was a great time at the store. Pilot season. Look, everybody's here.
I did love that people came from New York and they stay for a month. And you're like, oh, I see these guys. Yeah, yeah, it was great.
Pilot season was great. It doesn't exist anymore.
Well, it can't. Right?
There's no. There's no shows.
Right? And it doesn't matter anymore now because what Apple's investment has done, what Netflix has done, what all these streaming services.
Have done, what YouTube has done.
YouTube, they basically been like, well, we'll just dictate how the shows exist.
Well, they didn't even say that. They just put out content that you can get instantaneously, and they just put out so much of it that they drown the other people without even talking about them. Yeah, they didn't even have to bring them up.
Well, that's why those numbers. I mean, you know, that's why the numbers for. For TV is so weird and low. Because young people are like, well, just watch it on my phone. Yeah, I'm not gonna. I don't want to watch that.
So going back to this Jimmy Kimmel thing, there's a lot going on with this.
Do you know him, by the way, or.
Yes. He's a good guy. Jimmy's a good guy. He's a smart guy. He's a funny guy. He was always very funny on when. When, you know, he did that fucking Windy City heat thing.
I love that. That such a good movie.
I think he tried to distance himself from that. Very, very, very successful because it's a 25 year prank.
What's his name? Perry?
Phil. Let's not mention him.
Okay, let's.
Because I know, I just. Let's just have people go find it when he's. When heat. But you see that and you go, oh, that's the same guy. Like, yeah, well, one thing that does happen to guys as they get older is, you know, they soften their ways and they change who they are and they change how they interface with the world. And, you know, and then if you're in Hollywood, you're also addicted to an ideology, and it depends on what kind of style you have. So if you have a funny, mocking style that is like satirical, that's always making fun of things, tongue in cheek, like Norm MacDonald, perfect example. Norm MacDonald, even if he's making fun of you, is not going to piss you off to the point where you tweet about him. Because if you do, he kind of won. He kind of gotcha. You know what I mean? So it's like Kimmel has this sort of go fuck yourself style. Ironically, he celebrated in his monolog when Tucker Carlson got fired. It's kind of a problem. It's also kind of a problem that he, in his monolog talked about how it was the right thing to fire Roseanne.
Yeah, I remember that.
Little bit of a problem. Little bit of a problem. Also a problem that he thought the unvaccinated. He made a joke about the unvaccinated. People shouldn't get hospital care if there's people who are vaccinated that need that room. I think the joke was, oh, vaccinated person who's had a heart attack. Come right in here, sir. Unvaxed person who gobbled horse goo. Rest in peace, wheezy. Like, that was the joke. Look, I'm unvaccinated. And I was like, that's kind of a fucked up joke. But I'm not mad at him.
No, it's a joke.
It's just a joke.
It's a joke.
But it's like those things weren't a problem. This one thing where he said it was a low point. What did he say? I want to be Real clear. Let's pull up his actual quote, because what he said was not bad. It wasn't accurate, though, but it wasn't bad. He was just trying to set up this joke of Trump, which was good.
It was a great show.
It was very funny, but the setup.
Was a little wonky. I do remember listening to it.
It's like the problem with doing it that way on Monday is that by Sunday night they already knew that this guy, his family had been saying that. Again, I don't even know if he really did it. But this person who they're talking about, the plant, this person who they're talking about, whether or not he did it or didn't do it. Well, the FBI is now investigating deeply and further, by the way.
We'll find out.
So Cash Patel did say that, whatever that means. Right. But. So here it is, what he actually says. Here's the actual. The actual new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it. In between the finger. Okay, stop right there.
Yeah, that was. It's a weird phrasing when he goes. They're trying to pin it as anybody but them.
Yeah.
Asserting that he was a maga.
Well, this is the thing. In the beginning, people thought he was. So the first reports were that he was a hardcore right wing guy, that he was a registered Republican, which he may or may not be. Sometimes people go back and forth, you know. And then the other thing was that he was a groiper. So he was a Nick Fuentes fan. That was some other stuff that was going around.
What's groiper?
We'll get into that in a bit. Okay, hold please.
Yeah.
Then it came out that. No, his father is a law enforcement guy. I don't think that's true. That's not true.
I think that's what. That was part of the story. But I think later found out that wasn't true. What's true?
Family. Some family members. By Sunday, the Utah governor was saying that family members were reporting that this young man had been wrapped up in some very hardcore leftist ideology. So this had already been released on Sunday. So on Monday, if Kimmel had just said, you know, it was a tragic thing that Charlie Kirk died, and let's see what the President thinks about it. Goes right to him. And like the fourth stage of grief.
It's a great joke.
It's a great joke. The whole thing was great. But the problem is we had already known by then again, at least the narrative is that this kid is not a MAGA person.
Right.
The narrative by Sunday night. So a day before, by Sunday night, it was. This kid was really wrapped up in some hardcore leftist antifa ideologies. Listen, here's the other reality. If you're 20, you're dumb as shit and people can get you to be a Nazi, they can take you, get you to be a Muslim, they can get you to be Mormon, they can get you to be a Scientologist, they can get you to be anything. When. When people are young and they don't have any friends and their parents suck, you can indoctrinate them.
Yeah.
You know, when I was doing martial arts when I was a kid, I was basically in a cult. I was just in a cult of how to people up. Everybody bowed to, everybody was bananas. You have to call everyone sir and mister. It's kind of very cult like, it's very disciplined. It creates a great structure. It was good for me growing up. But at the end of the day, it's kind of a cult. Like we're just lucky they didn't take advantage of us.
Right? Right. They make you stay after and do other shit.
20 year olds are dumb, dude.
Right.
It's like we have to have a little bit more grace for people like across the. Not for, obviously not for ones who actually shoot Charlie Kirk. But the problem is everybody, because they're online all the time, genuinely believes that there's this crazy culture war that we have to stand up and fight against. I was telling you about that guy that was saying that you have to be like Neo from the Matrix. Now you're calling like, will you fucking settle down?
Yeah, slow down, dude.
Settle down.
Just get your matcha and chill out.
Also, it's like the last thing the left wants is an actual fight with the right. They are so much more armed.
I was just gonna say, who do you think has all the guns?
Who do you think is former military? What do you think is law enforcement? You think there's a lot of lefty law enforcement people out there? Are you fucking crazy?
It's a bad. It's a bad. But this is the thing. I think what you said, the bot farming, they're plotting really hard for us to hate each other as much as we possibly can. And so. But what is.
You can't give into it.
What's the overarching thing? That's the older I get, the more I'm like, what is really fucking going.
On that's a big part of it. You can't let that happen, folks. You can't let that happen. And this is something that I've been saying for a long time. Pretend I didn't say it. Pretend somebody else said it. If you don't like me, if you don't like me, we have to be a community. This is the United States of America. We're supposed to be a country. Like, we can have differences of opinions. Like when we're in the mothership Green room. My politics are so different than Ron White's and Ron White's are so different than Brian Simpson's and Hasan's somewhere in the middle. His is different and Tony's. Tony's. Tony, he's got his, like, Tony. We're all sitting here having conversations about things, but we're never like, hey, you, you fascist. You don't know. Like, we're not calling people names. We'll disagree on what happens if you. Look, I think you need a social safety net, and there's a lot of people who don't think that. But when I was a kid, my family was on welfare. We were poor. Like, it helps you. It helps people eat, man. Like this. You're talking literally about people that could go hungry in the United States of America, which is step one to fix, right?
Like, it doesn't mean that you're going to divide everybody's money amongst everybody else. And it's going to be, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You gotta have some social safety net. You have to have food, you have to have housing, you should have education. All of it should be free. College level education. Why the fuck do you go broke getting educated? Do we not want people to make. If we're gonna subsidize anything in this country, wouldn't we subsidize education? No, we're gonna subsidize corn. We need more corn syrup. We need more people getting fat and st. Stupid. It's crazy that there's pushback against that. It doesn't mean that you think equal outcomes should exist. No, hard work is real. Discipline is real. It's important. You wanna have a good life, you gotta go after something. You don't have a quality of outcome because you don't have a quality of effort. It's that simple. It really is.
And some people need a little extra help, I think. Look, and this is me saying something about you, knowing you, as long as I've known you, you're someone that's very generous and you've always Been very generous. And you kind of instilled that in the community. So a lot of people learn through you. They're like, hey, man, if you get more, you should probably want to give a little bit more.
You should give more because it feels nice and it doesn't feel bad to you at all.
And it doesn't affect you. You said that one time. I don't know who was saying that. You were like, what do you leave for a tip? And someone said something, whatever the number was, I'm not going to call. And then you go, why? That's not. If you left a little bit more, you wouldn't even know the difference. You said leave that. You won't even know the difference. And they're like, well, I don't know. And you're like, you won't even know it's gone because you're doing well. Someone else you can lift up just a little bit more.
You give them a love bomb.
Yeah, dude, it's just a love bomb. Just a love bomb. Give a little bit more.
I'd love tipping because when you, like, if I'm in Europe, it kind of bums me out because nobody wants tips or they're not.
They look at you so crazy.
It's a weird system because this system is flawed as it is. Because I do think that people should be paid a living wage. I don't think you should have to rely on the benefit, the generosity of other people that you're serving. That's kind of crazy, too.
Yeah.
Because not everybody is like me. A lot of people are fucking really stingy, man. I know some people that really suck at tipping and it's gross.
Call them out. Here we go. Here's the list.
Let's not do it. But the point is, it's like when you do, if you can do it, like, if you can live, if you're supposed to leave 10 bucks and you leave a hundred, like, you know how good that feels to that person. They just like, you gave them a little love bomb. And if you've got some money in the bank, do you know that a hundred dollars is missing? No, you don't know it. You have no idea.
Right?
You drop a Hyundai in that Starbucks bowl because of. Let's move on. We're going to the airport.
There's a lot of people listening that's like, I'm not doing that.
You don't have to do that. But whatever you can do that doesn't affect you. Look, if you're getting by and you're struggling, I Get it, man. I'm. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about once you're not giving people a little is good, it feels good. It's nice.
And I think that carries through. I think people start to see it as a cool thing to do, so then it carries on.
Being nice is cool. And it's. The other thing is, it's like you don't realize how much it benefits you. Like, it makes you feel good, too.
Oh, yeah.
It makes you feel good.
Oh, I love it. It's a universal thing. It, like, feeds. It feeds.
Yeah. Yeah. Yes.
I'm gonna say this one thing about the Kimmel thing, and then I'm done because I didn't finish kind of my thought before. But I like Jimmy. I texted him just to check in with him because I. I've always liked him. He's always been pretty cool to me. Also, my buddy was like, how crazy. You're like, one of the last guests on Kimmel. I did it, like, a week before he got dropped. I was like, oh, that'll be cool. That'll fucking end my career of Late Night with his canceled show. But I like to do it a lot. And I think my beef with that world is. I think they got so political, and they had to ground themselves in it so much that it took away from how fun those shows could be.
Yeah.
So that's my biggest problem with all of them. And it's not necessarily Jimmy's fault. It's not any of the Colbert. It's kind of that just the system that started to take place.
It's everybody's fault. It's the president's fault, too. He's doing it back and forth.
Yeah.
But meanwhile, he got together and had dinner with Bill Maher, who's been talking shit about him for decades. And apparently Bill Maher liked him. They like each other.
I think I saw that. Yeah.
Do you know how crazy that is? That what works at the Comedy Store also works at the White House? Just talk to him. Like, how many times do you have a little beef with a comedian? You get in front of him and you have a conversation with him, and then 20 minutes later, Marc Maron. 20 minutes later, you're hugging each other. Right. Because most people in person are cool, but you get lost in whatever the fuck is in your head. You're arguing with yourself. And with Trump, it's all about disrespect. You know, if it feels disrespect. If he could turn those guys all into fans of his. We might save the world from a war. And I'm not kidding. And it's like, well, a person like that shouldn't be present. You're right. But also, no one should be president because everybody has a little of that guy in them, which is what drives you the most nuts. Everybody has a little of that. Fuck you. Even though I'm president, I'm going to call some girl I slept with horse face. I'm going to call Kim Jong Un. Rocket man. Little rocket man. There's no one should do that fucking job.
Understand? It's crazy. It's as crazy as wanting to be on late night tv. It's antiquated. It doesn't make any sense anymore. It was a good job when there was like a hundred, 150 different cities and it was like, you know, a million people in the whole country. And you can kind of like keep it together. We're at 330 plus. Who knows how many people snuck in during the last four years.
Yeah.
How many terrorist cells and every things ready to spring to trick you into adopting some sort of a digital id?
Yeah. Yeah.
It's wild. At the same time, they're making so much AI that they're not even going to be able to power it. The grid's not going to be able to handle it. If we're going to really compete in the AI race, we have to substantially improve the power grid and power output.
How do we do that?
You're asking the wrong guy, but I know. Brian Simpson sent me this today. I'll send it to you, Jamie. But I was looking at this, I was like, jesus Christ. This is one of those things where you like. Every time I started to think, well, well, if we take care of all. Oh, this too. This too.
I saw this thing. Japan has these kinetic energy sidewalks and it's because of the foot traffic. And so that kinetic energy transfers into stored energy.
We're going to need nuclear dude. And we're going to need a lot of it. There's. They're doing a Google AI. And this Google AI, they're connecting to the construction of three different nuclear power plants. Three? Yeah. Big.
Big.
You have to power the new God, Santino. You got to power the new God. The new God requires a lot of electricity.
Yeah. God, he's hungry. He needs energy.
Why now? This may or may not be true. Because this is someone whiz of. What is it? Whiz of Dao Whiz. Whizzo. Phi. Wizo. Phi.
No. Whiz of AI.
Oh Jesus Christ. Oh my God. I'm retarded. Is this AI? Then it might be AI tricking us with a story about AI.
That White House tech meeting wasn't about AI. Apple Nvidia Meta came for one reason. To secure electricity before it runs out. The real agenda, a 500 billion dollar electricity crisis that could shut down AI development. Here's what they're not telling you.
Click on that.
I love the Zuckerberg photo they put up there that they use.
Every major tech CEO at the summit shared the same fear. We don't have enough power for AI. Not enough to run trillion parameter models, not enough to power hyper scale data centers. Not enough to meet the chip demand that doubles every nine months. Dude, doubles. The media spun it as historic pledges for AI innovation. But behind closed doors the conversation was blunt. This might be just like an article they write about behind closed doors at the mothership. Behind closed doors they're handing out Nazi paraphernalia and Sieg Highland each other. Most shocking deal so far, Microsoft just locked up all in, all caps, all of the Three Mile island nuclear output. 837 megawatts. 20 year contract. Plant won't even restart until 2028. First of all, Three Mile island is the place that melted down in like the 70s. Do you remember that?
Yeah, yeah, once.
That spot. Is that spot good?
Yeah.
Is it good now? Like you guys had a meltdown there just 30 years ago, right?
How's that real estate?
Oh wait, how many years ago? I was 50. Was it 50 years ago?
I just googled on my phone an NPR article that says Three Mile island nuclear plant will reopen.
That's fine. Microsoft data centers, it's.
Microsoft owns it now. Good.
It's fine, don't worry about it. We covered it in Bill Gates's appeal. That stuff that they put around Avocados, what is that? I don't know. You tell me. It helps things stay fresh.
Stay fresh longer. Wait, go back to that other slide though. What did that say? The last thing that Microsoft already owns. Every future electron it will produce, they pre bought. We bought all that. The whole power plant, it's like a wrapper.
But this is the thing. I think you have to do that. This is just Microsoft's solution to it. Jamie, could you please Google Google what Google's AI is going to need and the amount of power plants that it's dedicating to this AI thing that it's doing, doing. And this is again not quantum. So quantum computing is a completely different level. You have to you have to cool things down. The entire is like this enormous machine that's entire. The whole purpose of all this stuff and these tubes and is to get this chip so cold, it's like it's in space. It has to be like space cold.
Like what it does, it runs better when it's freezing.
The only way it works. Right. I don't understand it.
God, I hate that shit.
Do you want to know how strong it is? Ready for this?
Yeah.
This is what Marc Andreessen said. Quantum computing can take us like an equation that this is Marc Andreessen's words, that if you converted the entire universe, every atom in the entire universe into a supercomputer, the universe would die of heat death before it solved this equation. And the quantum computer solved it in minutes. In minutes. Like in the time it takes you to take a shit while you're looking at Instagram, it figured out something that would take the entire universe until it dies of heat death. If you took every atom of the universe and converted it into a supercomputer, the biggest fucking supercomputer, it would still. It's so complex that the universe would run out of time. And this quantum computer did it in many minutes. And they're speculating, like, how could it do it? And one of the main points of speculation is that it's proof of the multiverse. And so they're ben. You know, they have to explore every single possible idea. And one of the most fantastical is that this is evidence that not only is this quantum computer able to harness impossible amounts of computational power, but then it shares it with an infinite number of these quantum computers that are in other direction or other dimensions rather.
And so they're all simultaneously working on this project together, and they come up with a solution within minutes. So it's far more intelligent than the entire universe. If the universe was a supercomputer and it's in a room somewhere in Dallas.
It'S down the street.
Jack Carr writes about it in one of his books, in the Terminalist book. And you know, and he kind of really investigated extensively whether or not this kind of thing is possible. It really is. It's not just possible. They're. They're demonstrating so what we know about it, like, as far as, like press releases, conversations about. It's very public, but we don't know, like, what it's doing right now. What is it doing right now? You think they're gonna tell us what is today? September 22nd. Is that what it is?
Yeah.
September 22nd, 2025. Are they gonna tell us what it's doing right now? Maybe it's like writing a new Bible, you know?
Yeah, it's owned by.
Maybe it's like, I'm coming back. Maybe it's God. Like, this is how God comes back. Comes back through a super Peter. Yeah. Yeah.
That's a trip, dude.
Well, it's not just a trip. It's plausible.
Yeah, no, it's probably happening right now.
I know I've been hit in the head a bunch of times and I smoke a lot of weed. I'm half retarded. But I might be right about this.
You might be right about this.
I think we're making a go God.
We're creating a new God.
Yeah, we're creating a new God.
Or, Or.
And that's why these fucking arguments that people are having about Jimmy Kimmel are so fucking stupid. You're in the middle of one of the craziest things that's ever happened to the human race. And you've got a feud between the president and a talk show host, and the talk show host that, like, he's getting. We don't. Here's the thing about this whole deal that's going on because we started talking about it. We don't know if it affect. We don't know if there was a conversation where someone said, hey, if you get rid of this guy, I'll help this thing get across. Because the deal. It looks like the deal was you. It was like a thing where you could only have certain amount of stations, otherwise you'd have some sort of a monopoly. And they're going to change the rules. Is that correct?
Because Star. What's the name of the company again? Star.
Nextar.
Nextar. I think it's an FCC rule either way. It's a rule that the FCC talked about changing that you can't have over X, like 34%. They were. They were going to have the conversation to start it to see if this was possible to let you have more than a certain percentage.
And this is for TV stations, right?
Yeah, because they are. Own 192. Is that. That's the number. It's something.
This motherfucker is out here buying AM radio stations. Okay, if I was. If I was Nancy Pelosi, I'd start betting against him. Like, what are you going into TV Today today? And you're going to tv and to get your deal to go through, you're going to expose the flaws of being on TV publicly to the world where you're going to get A guy removed to help your deal grease through. You're literally going to poison your own business because people are going to start questioning, how does it. Why do you not. Why do you need a license? Why does the fcc, like, this is what you're really concerned about?
Yeah.
Like, who. Is there some. Can I see some emails? Was. Did you guys have dinner together? Like, can I see some fucking metadata where the cell phones were three days before this decision was reached? So it's. You don't know. And then you've got Jimmy Kimmel, who's like a feisty dude, and he's like, hey, fuck you. And if you're the guy who could say, hey, fuck you, to the President, he apparently didn't want to back down. And not only did he not want to back down, and he kind of ramped it up. And so on Tuesday, he went at him again and he kind of talked about it. And then they pulled the plug on it. So, like, there's a lot of factors there. You could say that maybe they thought that in this incredibly trying time after the murder of a political guy who was very controversial, like, maybe we should take the temperature down a notch. I was a country. You know.
But you just said that they expose themselves, though, by doing that. Now you open up a weird Pandora's box of people.
They didn't play it out. They didn't play it out. You have to play 4D chess with that shit because, like, you. You have a. If I was working for them, I would say, hold on. You have a very, very vulnerable business. This business is kind of nonsense. Anybody can. Anybody can make a channel and just throw it up on YouTube. Anybody can make a website on Squarespace and stream video like, what are you doing?
And we're doing it. They're happening right now. More and more and more. Yeah, and also the numbers were. They started exposed the numbers. It's supposed to do with the. It's because it's the radio spectrum. And that has to stay up for, like, emergency purposes. Just, like, gets way into the weeds with this.
But. Okay, that makes sense, too.
That's right.
The power went on.
YouTube would be gone.
Right, right, right.
Still exists.
That's interesting. Well, so you need some kind of a way to get signals across. But guess what, kids? If the power goes out, that's your last concern.
See you later.
The last concern is, how many bullets does Bobby have? Can I borrow some bullets from Bobby? We gotta go shoot squirrels to stay alive. There's no more squirrels. We shot all the squirrels. We have to move to where the animals live. Because you think you live around animals, but you live around a relative number of animals for an urban or suburban environment. Once people start shooting the pigeons, they go away real quick. The passenger pigeon used to be one of the most populated birds on this country, and they're extinct now. The passenger pigeons were so numerous, they would fly overhead, they would block out the sky you wouldn't be able to see. Yeah, there was millions of them. Like a cloud. A cloud of passenger pigeons that would fly over cities and just block out the sky.
Died out because of food, because of what? Necessity.
We killed them.
We killed them all.
We killed them all.
Kill them all.
We kill them all. Probably caught them with nets, throwing nets in the sky, but we killed them. Yeah. So it's like the animals that we have around us, like, if you say, oh, I live in the suburbs, I'm fine. No, no, no, no, no, no, you're fine. For a week you're gonna be shooting deer out there for a week, like, no, they're gonna go away. You're not gonna have any more deer. You're gonna have to live way away from people where there's a good population of animals, a sustainable population. And then they might figure out, they might not visit that spot anymore when they could realize they could just go 30 miles left, which is, you know, what evolution's all about. And then you gotta realize, like, oh, that's why the Native Americans were nomadic. Fuck. So this beautiful log cabin you built, you gotta leave it behind and you gotta go chase around these fucking mule deers because it's the only way you're gonna stay alive. And you're gonna sleep on the dirt with some stupid rolled up mattress that you carry around on your back. Yeah, that's what you have to do. That's how you have to live on the go.
And if you don't do that, you'll die. That's it. So all this nonsense about the fcc, you could suck my dick. That is such a small problem. It's such a small problem. But yeah, man, I'm not in favor of silencing talk show hosts. It just. But also, as a talk show host, you should be accurate, you know? And again, I don't know if the narrative that the governor of Utah was saying is correct. I don't know if that's even the kid that did it. Things change, man. You, like, people, for the longest time thought Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone because the government told you that.
Right?
It wasn't until Dick Gregory came on The Geraldo Rivera show, that people started to question that. And that was how many years later? No, I think it was like, eight. Let's see. It was 63. It might have been nine. It might have been, like, nine years later. 75. Wow. 12. 12 years after the murder.
Finally.
Crazy. So 12 years after the murder, people watch the Pruder film, and in this Pruder film, you clearly see him grab his neck, like he got shot from the front. And then you see his head go back into the left when he gets.
Hit with a headshot back into the left.
So that alone made everybody go, hold the fuck on. And then they started looking into the conspiracy around the bullet. So they had said that there was three shots had rung out and that he had hit Governor Connally. The President had been hit twice. The problem with that narrative was there was an underpass and a ricochet from the underpass where a bullet hit one of those little curbstones and hit a dude and him up, and he had to go to the hospital. They documented that it became on. On record that this guy was hit with a ricochet. And so now you got a problem because you have two bullets that have to have all these wounds. One of them is going to be the headshot, and then you got this other one that causes three holes in two different people.
It's a lot of ricocheting, dude. A lot of work for one bullet.
You've got to find the bullet in perfect condition on the gurney where they're bringing Lee Harvey Oswald's body in, which doesn't make any sense. Like, how is it even though, oh, he just happened to go collect it after he shot him in the head, and then he put it in his pocket, and then he just went. Then they killed him. They dropped it off. Like, what are you talking about? It doesn't make any sense.
Doesn't make sense.
Excuse me. It was Connolly's body. That's what it was. It was in the gurney for Connolly's body. But either way, like, shut the fuck up. How's that bullet getting on the gurney? And how's it imperfect? It just fell out of him. Oh, look there. Look. And it looks like it's been shot through pillows. Have you ever seen the magic bullet? Take a look at it, Jamie. Show this motherfucker what. How the government was lying to people in 1963.
But if you could call them out, they go, okay, fine.
They don't. No one cares, because nothing happened. It's 20, 25. I'll show you some in 1963. That's 100%. Yeah, 100%.
Even when they admit it, though, right? What is this? Didn't we just have a military plane shoot a ufo? Right. Didn't we just have this?
Yes, with a Hellfire missile.
It's so fun.
Bounce right off of it. Why would we shoot at UFOs? So. Look at that. That's the bullet. That's the bullet that supposedly carved out of wood. It's a perfect bullet. It's so dumb. And I've had arguments with people. Well, it's actually not. It's misshapen. I'm like, how many bullets have you shot, bitch? How many things have you shot with a bullet? And taking a look at it, I bet I've shot a lot more than you. And I'll tell you what, when bullets hit things, they distort.
Yeah. They don't look like that.
They don't look like that. They definitely don't leave more fragments in Governor Connolly's body than we're missing from the actual bullet itself.
That. That. The idea of that ricochet moving through. Come on.
Shut the fuck up.
Shut the fuck up.
But bullets do do weird things.
They do. But that is insane.
Yeah. That's kooky.
Taking a left turn.
The only reason why they had to come up with that kooky reason is because the guy in the underpass. Because in the time it took for the limousine to pass through and if you ever been in that area.
Oh, yeah, it's cool.
Dealey Plaza is weird.
It's wild.
You're there, you're like, whoa. And it's little.
Yeah, it's tinier than you think. On tv, it looks so big. When you saw the footage of it.
Yeah.
And then when you see the distance, too. That was the first thing I said. Easy Chris o'. Connor. I go, easy shot. Easy shot.
Yeah. People that saying, oh, he could have never made that shot. Yeah, you could.
That wasn't that far at all.
Anybody saying that you couldn't make that shot. I could get my friend Andy. My friend Andy works with you for a week. You can make that shot 100%. 100%. It wasn't as far as you skeptics. Yeah, it's not that hard. I could do it. I can make that shot easy.
But it's a tr. It's a. It is really condensed how quick you get to that turn. Like, it's faster than.
It's faster, but the car's not going fast. And he's got a scope on the rifle and he's Got a rifle that was substantially newer than the one that this guy just killed Charlie Kirk with. Allegedly.
Yeah. Because that was a World War I. Is that what they say?
Yeah, that, I think. Were they. His was a Carcano, right? Is that what it was, The Lee Harvey Oswald one? And this one supposedly is a Mauser. Is it the same. That might be the same thing.
There it is.
Is it the same gun? I don't look like the same gun. No, but that's just a different stock. And so what was the name of the gun that Lee Harvey Oswald supposedly shot JFK with? This is the other thing. The Lee Harvey Oswald thing. This is one of the things that the. The doubters of whether or not he could make that shot always say, like, the scope was off. Okay, it's Carcano. And then this kid. It was a Mauser. Correct. All right, so it's a different rifle. But the point is, like, the Mauser that this kid had is substantially older than the rifle that in 1963 shot JFK. Okay. That's kind of kooky. When a good hunting rifle, first of all, everybody's uncle has one. It's like, how many?
At least one.
There's so many hunting rifles out there. You can get a hunting rifle. It's not a hard rifle to get. It's one of the most common rifles that people possess because there's a lot of people that, you know, they don't want to go to the range, but they do go deer hunting every couple of years. So they have a.30 06. That's a regular, normal deer hunting round.
Right. Maybe one of the most common. Huh? You see those all the time.
Super common. If you get meat heady, you get to like. 300 win mag. Start picking up the pace. Yeah.
Then you start. Yeah, you start jogging a little bit.
Moose hunters. Moose hunters want a heavier round.
Big.
They want a big round. Moose hunter's like a.300 win mag. You should. I have. I shot a moose.
Yeah. How much they weigh?
Oh, it's a big. I'm on the COVID of a Hunt magazine of Peterson's. Hunted from like, 2017 or something like that, with a moose leg over my shoulder. From a moose we shot.
That's a good. When you said that that's a good title for the magazine. It's a big.
It's big.
It's a big.
And it wasn't even a big moose. I saw a huge moose last week in Utah. God, he was majestic. We were looking at him through our binos. He was so big. Like moose are so much bigger than any of the other deer species. Like elk are huge and elk are big.
Yeah.
And then so it goes like. It's weird because there's deer species that are teeny tiny deers. Like there's a thing called the coos deer that is in Arizona and it's a little tiny deer. It's like a 90 pound deer. Little tiny.
Never seen it.
Yeah, it's a desert deer. And then like as you get to colder and colder weather, you get bigger and bigger animals. There's some sort of a weird. There's actual science to it. It's like to keep their body temperature higher, like so deer that live in Mexico are generally smaller bodied than a de who lives in like Saskatchewan. Like the deers get big up there and then you get where it's really cold, you start getting moose. And those are big.
I saw one in Banff. I couldn't him. I didn't. I. I was like. It almost didn't compute. I thought, man, that looks fake. It looks fake. It's so big.
There's a video of these people driving on the highway and the moose is on the median. Have you ever seen that? Not the one when it gets hit.
No. We've watched that. One of the first times I did the show, we watched that thing. It makes me laugh every time.
Recent one that someone posted because he was a massive bull moose and he's walking along the media. By the way, if you're ever in the wild and you see a deer, don't worry about it. If you see an elk, don't get close, but don't worry about it. If you see a moose, run, you're fucked. Run. They might come for you. They might come get you. You get out of your car and you're like 20 yards from your car and there's a moose 200 yards away and he sees you and you see him. Get back in your fucking car.
Get out of there.
Get back in your car. Because if they just decide stomp you out and they do that, sometimes they'll just. They might have had some bad interactions with people. Some might have thrown snowballs at them. They might associate people with being a problem. They might have been there when a hunter took down one of their buddies. Get out. That's the one deer that'll kill you. They'll stomp you.
What a shitty way to die too.
Gigantic 1800 pound thing just stomping you out now.
Get out of there.
Jamie, see if you can find that one where the giant moose Is walking along the median, bro. It's so nuts because these people are in their car. No, it's on the highway. Maybe say. Oh, that's pretty cool though. Jesus Christ.
Going to Tim Hortons, bro.
Look at the size of that thing.
Oh, just eating a tree.
It's so huge.
Yeah, look at the people right next to that car. Look at the size difference of those people outside Taking a picture by his.
Car, by the way. Those people are idiots. Idiots. Oh my God, lady, don't do that. Don't do that. And not. This is. I'm not saying that. Look at that one run through like that. Wow. That's a cow too. Or it may be a. Well, it's probably a cow. Might be a bull that lost its antlers. Look at this dude. Look at the size of him.
And if he's just the size, average.
Moose is 1400 pounds. Average. Jeez, they're so big. It's just like if you see them, that is unbelievable. If you see that, don't go towards it, okay? Trust me, this is not a movie. You don't live in a fucking movie.
Go back to that one up top though. That one right there.
Yeah.
I mean this is genuinely. This is a fucking dinosaur. Yeah, you're looking at a dinosaur. That's insane.
It's insane.
Yeah, I saw one in Banff. I went into Banff National Forest and I. It was stunning, beautiful. We come around the corner and there's crazy traffic and I was like, what is going on? And we see people getting out of their cars. I'm like, oh shit, something bad happened. I'm thinking it's an accident or something. It's on a bend.
Look at that. That's the one. This is the one.
Oh my God.
Dude, that's a big moose. Look at how much antler he has on him. Antler growth. That's an old moose.
What do you think though? I don't know, age wise. Like, what is that?
How old would that be? That's probably a 10 year old moose. Because he also looks like he's losing a little mass in his upper body. Like a Maybe not. Tough to say. He's like right on the peak of his prime. Like he's probably gonna. Life's gonna start sucking pretty soon. Pretty soon he's gonna have a little hitch in his step. He herniates a disk and he's probably. Look at the size of that. And he's probably only 8 or 9 years old.
They only live till 12, 13, something like that.
If they're super Lucky.
Wow.
That life is hard. They have freeze offs. Like there was a freeze off in Utah. Utah, where a buddy of mine hunts at freeze off. Freeze off. 87 of their deer died.
What?
87%?
That's all of it.
They froze to death.
Wow.
87%.
God damn.
Yeah.
Why they couldn't seek shelter enough time.
They don't have shelter. Deer don't have shelter. Deer are just warm. They're very hot blooded. Like if you ever go deer hunting and you get a deer, when you put your hand like you, you're gutting it and everything, you're amazed at how hot they are. Their bodies are hot. Did he freeze to death? Frown frozen in place. Average weekly temperature was minus 35 degrees.
So could they reanimate if it warmed up?
Yeah, for sure. Call Frankenstein. There's a new Frankenstein coming out. Yeah, dude, it looks sick. Deer comes back, it's what's his face too Peaky blinders.
Killian Murphy.
Yes.
That guy's the man.
He's the man, dude.
He's gonna be Frankenstein.
Yeah, that's why he's the doctor, I believe.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
So everybody thinks Frankenstein's the monster? No, Frankenstein's the doctor.
Right.
And the monsters. Frankenstein's monster.
Right?
Yeah.
Oh, look at this.
Play this. A little standard music. I had a vision, a night Idea took shape in my mind. Inevitable resolve, unavoidable until it became truth. Only monsters play God.
In seeking life, I created death.
Victor. Yo. Okay, that's not Killian Murphy.
Doro directed Christoph Waltz.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Yeah, I was Jacob. I thought it was Killian Murphy. Someone told me.
Still a great little lineup.
Just listen to it and then spout it out. I spout out. That's how misinformation gets spread. It's a good line. If I was in the fcc, they'd pull me and they should pull me for that.
And I'm saying that to the FCC now. Pull this show off the air. Fcc, get on it, man.
Yeah, they try to do that too, even though it's on the Internet. But the point is, with this Jimmy Kimmel thing, if you let this happen, it's going to be able to happen with something that you agree with everything across the board. Yeah. If you're a person who's on the right, who's happy that he's getting pulled. Yeah, fuck who. Look, if his show goes away because of bad ratings, that's one thing, and you want to celebrate it, go ahead. But you don't want it to happen this way. Kids, you don't want to give that kind of power away all of a sudden, you know? And people could say, well, they've always had that power. And they, you know, it's true. And look, the FCC fined Howard Stern a fucking preposterous amount of money. You know, Howard Stern was doing. He was doing shit on the radio that no one had ever even thought about doing. Yeah, like, you want to talk about, like a real pioneer, that motherfucker. When he was on the radio, I know he's all. He's a little woke now, and he likes to wear a mask.
He's a different guy than he was back then.
He's a different guy.
He's making girls ride Sibians live.
I get it. But I just still respect the guy who did it in the beginning. And the point is, without that guy, we would not be here. And that the amount of money they find him during the Bush administration, like, people forget. So that was the right. Right. The right, at the time was going after Howard for indecency. And so I think it was because he was criticizing George Bush. I think that was the. Find out if that is. That's, like the narrative I'm reading to that.
The same comparison with the Kimmel thing, though. I think the fines go to the.
Actual, like, local parenting company. Yeah. Company.
Not abc. It's the local. That's right. Barely afford it because the low. Because that was the whole discrepancy. Right. They own a bunch of these local. So they're pressing local people to go take this down.
Exactly.
Because they can't afford it.
So they're trying to crush the business. And the way they would try to do it with Howard Stern, it was. They were using obscenity or indecency.
I think indecency is right.
Not him.
But it's hard.
Right? They did that and then they found. They fund. They find rather. What was his company that he worked for? He worked for a very large media company, broadcasting. I think they got hit with a big one.
Well, that one says infinity clipped in 80 in 94. It was 600 grand at 94.
Yeah. Infinity in 1995 included a 1.715 million dollar payment to dismiss all outstanding indecency cases. So they hit him for 1.7 million in 95. How much is 1.7? What is that in today's dollars?
Oh, I like guessing this. Let's do this. Hold on. 95. 1.7 million.
Yeah.
I'm guessing 10.
10.
No. 6, 4, 3 and some change. Maybe 4.
95. I'm saying 7, 3 and change.
I say 4. 4 roof. You say 7 roof.
I'm thinking about Afghanistan, how much money they bumped into that. I'm thinking about Iraq, how much money they blew on that. They weapons. They printed money the entire time. It caused inflation. That's why everything's so expensive. I'm going through my head, I'm like.
I see that math.
I feel like it's about seven. Done.
Jamie, what is it then? And now U. S. Inflation calculator. That's the one I use all the time. I do this literally all the time. I don't know why I'm obsessed with when someone's like, do you know how much that was back then?
I hate when people do that because it doesn't matter.
I'm always like, what is that?
What is that in today's dollar? Yeah, shut the up.
What is that now? All right, I'm saying 4 at the most. No more than 4.
1.7 has got to be like 7 million. Hold on.
I'm stuck on a green Google thing.
I have the wrong.
Jamie, Jamie, Jamie.
What? Run it through AI I figured that.
Would have popped up. You don't have crypto, do you?
Dude, I got a little. You do, but not much. I think it's mostly nonsense. I'm gonna run it through ChatGPT.
Yeah. See what. See what the chat says.
Okay. What was the number?
1.7, right? 1.77.
What is $1.7 million in 1995 in today's dollar? She's transcribing.
3.7. 3.7. Ooh. The kid was right.
This is taking a long time.
He's got it.
Yep. 3.6 according to chat. GPT. Okay. You nailed it.
Damn, dude, I should have. Thank you. That's huge.
That's very good. That makes me feel better. I was thinking it was going to be about 7. I was thinking inflation was that bad because everybody, when I was a kid, for 50 grand a year, you live like a king. You had a house, you had a car, you had a boat, you had.
A second family two towns over 50.
Grand, you were killing it.
I think I. I think someone said. And I, like, my grandfather was a firefighter, and I think back then he was making. I want to say it was right around there, like 30 or 40 grand or something like that. And it was, like, really good money.
Yeah, that was good money. Back then, if you made 40 grand.
A year and the houses were 20.
Grand or whatever, we're very reasonable.
Yeah.
Yeah. Now we're Fucked now. Young kids right now are really fucked because another thing that's happening is these giant corporations are buying up houses so they could just rent. Rent them.
The rental future is real, right? They say that all the time. That's what it's going to be.
Not for everybody, but, you know, a lot. It's just weird. The whole thing is weird. It's just. It always goes into more and more control. And these same people are going to be the people that are going to be in charge of artificial general superintelligence until it's not listening anymore.
And then what? And then what?
Then it's got.
Then it's God.
Yeah. So these people want to look. It's like they're like Frankenstein. They're like, I'll control it. And Frankenstein eventually kills the Doctor. Spoiler alert.
Yeah. I don't know if you guys saw.
It, if you read the actual book, the Mary Shelley book. She apparently wrote that book. It was like her and a bunch of friends went away for like, a weekend somewhere. Like. Like some sort of. Like a retreat. Yeah, like a retreat getaway. And they were all friends and they all decided to write the scariest story.
That's pretty true.
I think. That's the. My daughter actually told me this.
That's the Mary Shelley tale.
Yeah. Tell me if that's true, Jamie. I'm pretty sure that's how it all went down. And she fucking nailed it, son.
It's kind of wild.
That's a. She wrote that book in the 1800s.
So this. This begs this question. Do you think Dylan has talked about this? That when they're like, could you. There's an interview where Dylan's like. They're like, could you write that song today?
Bob Dylan.
Yeah. And he was like, no. Because something else was living through me, like, as if, like something was empowering them to do this and write that story.
There's a little of that, right?
Yeah.
So this is the story. The summer of 1816, Mary Shelley, Percy and Claire took a visit to Clare's lover, Lord Byron. My lover, Lord Byron. Please come with me by horseback to visit, my love.
Come to Geneva.
Come to Geneva. Poor weather conditions more akin to a winter forced Byron and the visitors to stay indoors to help pass. Imagine you get all the way out to this fucking. Dude. Shitty house in Geneva.
Can't even go out.
You just have to huddle by the fire to stay alive to help pass the time. There's no electricity, bro. 1816. Byron suggests that he, Mary Percy and Byron's physician have a Competition to write the best ghost story while stuck indoors. Mary was just 18 years old when she won the contest with her creation of Frankenstein. Isn't that wild?
That's what I mean, though.
What other books did she write? Why haven't I read her other books? Because I read Frankenstein when I was a kid.
Her mother was famous, right? Wasn't her mom famous?
Was she?
Go up to the top real fast.
Well, they did know a lord.
Yeah. Click on her. Her.
What a dirty girl. Going to visit a guy to. And you're not even married in the 1800s. That's a wild move back.
Oh, no. Her mom died when she was 11, days after giving birth. When she was 4, her father married a neighbor, Mary Jane Claremont, with whom.
Mary had a troubled relationship. But of course, stepmom. 1814, Mary began a romance with one of her father's political followers, Percy By She. How do you say that name, Baish?
Percy by Shelley By Shelley.
B Y S S H E. Shelley by she, who was already married together. Percy together with her stepsister, Claire Claremont, who named her Claire Claremont. Boring ass people. My name is Joe. Joseph. She left. She and Percy left for France and traveled through Europe. Upon the return to England, Mary was pregnant with Percy's child. That quick?
Wow. Bam, rocking.
That's how they did it back then. Because he never knew when you were gonna die.
Yeah, you're gonna die within the next month or two.
You get pregnant when you're 18. He's like, great, yeah, good. Maybe 30 people will survive. Over the next two years, she and Percy face ostracism, constant debt, and the death of their prematurely born daughter. Oh, my God. They married late 1860, after the suicide of Percy Shelley's wife. Oh, my God. The lady killed herself because they were fucking.
Did she kill herself, Joe?
That's a good question.
Was she taken care of? There's no forensics.
In 1860, did someone disassemble a rifle backpack and then screw it back together again and leave it in the woods?
The cops were like, what happened here? They're like, oh, she took her own life. Moving on.
The Shelleys left Britain in 1818 for Italy, where the second and third children died before Shelley gave birth to her last and only surviving child. Oh, my God. Times are so hard back then, dude. That was normal where your kids would just die.
Most of your kids died.
Catch some fucking horrible inf. There's no antibiotics. You're just dead.
How old did she. When did she die? Go over to the right there. Mary Shelley lived to be what 53.
Wow. She was a brain tumor which killed her at the age of 53. That's kind of crazy, right? A brain tumor took her out.
God, she looks like somebody. That photo is creepy. She looks like someone like in the modern day that I know really feels.
Someone that you know.
No, she looks like. She reminds me of the face of this girl who's like a comedian on TikTok. It's so weird. She has that same, like.
Okay.
Oh, I can't remember her name. Dude, it looks just like her. It's weird. It's so weird. Well, I hate that when they show people from, you know, like a hundred years ago and now of like a celebrity. Have you ever seen those?
Oh, what they would look like today?
No, no, no. They'll do a person who. From like 100 years ago and a person that exists today. And they almost look identical.
Oh, yeah.
As if it's. And there's no connective tissue to these two people. They. Different times, no blood, no nothing.
You know about the two baseball players, right?
The two. The. What do they call the.
The two guys who. They're both 6 foot 4, they're both redheads. They both have the same crazy name. They both have the same surgery, no blood, not related to each other at all. One of them was like five years older than the other. What are those guys names again we talked about the other day? That's what I learned about Nutty last name too. It's like Feigle did the odds of. What is it?
Feigals? Freddie Feigl. Brady Feigl.
Show the photos of it. Because you see the two guys together, you're like, there's no way this. This ain't real.
Unrelated.
Look at the two of them.
I don't even understand.
How's that possible?
I don't even understand.
Imagine if you were out camping and that guy killed that guy and then came back in his place. You'd have no idea.
You'd never know.
You wouldn't know for days. You'd be like, hey, you're. You're not Brady. I'm fucking Brady. You want to see my driver's license? Like, Brady doesn't live there.
That's a good mister. That's a good horror movie.
I am Brady and I live there. What the fuck?
I'm Brady Feigl.
What the fuck? I do live there.
That's how I. That's how I learned about the guys who are the two baseball players, the brothers that are pictures that are mirror identical. Mirror image, identical twins. Do you know about this? No, I thought that's just another way of saying identical twins. Mirrors are in the reverse. Right. Like my right side is your.
Oh, really?
Yes. And these two guys have it and it's super rare. And it's. When the split happens, it's either a millisecond away from creating conjoined or this. It's like within a second if it doesn't split at that very moment. Yeah. These guys, Tyler the Rogers.
Right.
The mirror identical twins. But if you read about mirror identical twins, what blows my mind is the amount that like the perfect second that has to take place for that, for this to split. It's this close to just them being conjoined.
That's nuts, right?
The single fertilized egg splits later in the embryonic development, nine to 12 days after concept perception. This delayed split allows Ambrose left and right sided genes to become active causing to develop a mirror image.
Is that. I wonder what kind of a psychic connection they have to each other.
Right?
They must.
They must.
They must.
Yeah. They must have something deep like he. He thinks. He know. He'll think something that he's already thinking.
Yes.
Yeah. I love that.
They must. They must.
Their waves are connecting.
They must.
Yeah. That's a trip.
They must.
Yeah. The psychology of twin twinning is kind of crazy. I was, I went down the rabbit hole about like, you know how they. Like, they'll put a door between. They'll do these on TikTok and Instagram. So they'll put a door between two twins and they'll go, okay, raise your right arm and I'm sorry. They'll say put up a finger or whatever. And they'll both do the exact same thing. They'll go dance in place. And they'll dance identical in place even though they don't see what the other ones do doing. But they know. That's their instinctual thing.
Dude. I know people that are twins that don't talk to their brother.
What?
What do you mean they don't like their brother?
They just don't connect.
How about that? How about he looks exactly like you and you don't like him?
That's that self hate. I got that out of the.
I got that. Imagine that becomes your enemy. You are your enemy. That is so. That's so dystopian. That's so terrible.
Like Face Off.
No, it's worse.
Yeah.
It's literally you.
It's you.
It's actually you. They look exactly the same height, same weight, same body, face image, everything. It's you. It looks like you it's like, oh, that's what I look like.
Fuck that guy.
Especially if one of them doesn't get jacked. It's very rare that they do do well. You usually kind of stay the same.
They, they copy each other. They typically.
Is that what it is?
Yeah, usually they want to do the same things a lot.
What did you imagine if your, your brother starts marathon running? Like, dude, I'm not doing this.
Yeah, I'm not doing like, I'm gonna.
Get down to 140 pounds, so I'm gonna run 100 miles. You're like, no, I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that. I want to be able to change a tire, right? You, you weigh 140 pounds, man. What are you doing? Why? I want to run forever. Like, no, we're twins.
Don't do that. We have to look alike.
We can't do this, bro. I'm not getting skinny. Like my friend Cam, when he does like those 100 mile races, he gets real thin. He gets down to like £155.
It's creepy looking. You have to because you shed so much. Right. And also doesn't, doesn't your, don't, doesn't it change your facial structure because of this pounding?
Your body's eating itself.
Yeah. Bad news bears.
But you're showing everybody your mind is strong enough to allow your body to do, do that. Because you have to do that even before you run. So if he, if Cam like the heaviest that I've known him, he was probably like a buck 80 and I think he's probably like somewhere in the 160ish range now, you know, and he just did it by not eating a lot and working out all day.
Just fasting and working out. Yeah.
Just eating leggy would map his calories out and that's it. So he can get real thin so he could run these long ass races. Because you don't see any jack dudes. Well, you do see Goggins. He's pretty jacked, but he's jacked in like a slender, athletic. He's not like a beefy like Brock Lesnar looking dude, right? Like you're not going to see some Brock Lesnar looking dude that's going to run 200 miles. No, I don't think you can do it.
I don't think that, I don't think the body could handle that. There's so much weight.
I think if you condition, if you're going to run something like that, you got to condition yourself. And if you condition Yourself with that kind of body, like for that long, like you're gonna break something, like it doesn't work, that's gonna buckle. That thing's designed for destroying. It's designed for running through walls and it's not designed for running long ass distances.
You never got into long distance running, did you? Any running at all?
I've run. I used to run in the mountains a lot with my dog. He loves running. I used to take him when I lived in California. We take him to the hills and the canyons.
Yeah.
But I was always worried about mountain lions.
Well, did there. Yeah, that's, that's the thing.
Because I have a golden retriever and if a mountain lion just took out my golden retriever in front of me, I have to fight now.
You have to fight a mountain lion?
I have to fight a mountain lion and then I might lose my face.
Do you hear about Rogan? He fought a mountain lion, dude.
Yeah.
Wow. How'd it turn out?
Not good.
The show's not going to go on.
Not good. No way. But you can't carry a gun in California.
No, you can't.
It's not like you're ever gonna need it. Right. But you might. No thing. It's not like you're ever, ever, ever, ever gonna need it. You're probably not gonna need it. You're right. You're probably not gonna need it. But you might.
But you might.
But you might. And that's what's fucked. Because California does not control their mountain lion population. I, I know a guy who works at a ranch and we were having a conversation about it the other day and he was telling me that, you know, they, they wind up spending the exact same amount. They wind up killing the exact same amount of mountain lions that they would even if they let hunters hunt them. Because they, they have to. Because they break it into people's yards. And killing their dogs.
Yeah.
And killing their cats. You know, and in Hollywood, man, there's kids have gone missing from those mountain lions. Kids have gone missing from backyards.
Well, what's the one that they put down? The piece. The one that, the most famous one, they had to put it down because it killed some or I don't know if it killed a person, but it did. It was called like PC145. They, you know, whatever the code of it.
We have a photo of them online.
Didn't it kill somebody and they put it down?
No, I don't think so. I don't think it ever killed a person.
But did they have to put it.
Down for some reason, I think it was really old. They used to have to dart it, like every couple of years, I think, and change its collar.
Check that.
Nuts. Just dull. They wanted to know where the monster is. So they're like, let's keep the 150 pound monster wandering through the woods. Just like put a collar on its neck so I know where it is when it's killing. Shit. This is like. It's very weird. The photo, you see the photo we have out there?
I do remember that photo. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's him with the Hollywood sign, right? Yeah, it's. It is la. That photo to me is la. Like when I point to people, I'm like, this is how stupid LA is. This is la. This is la. You have the Hollywood sign and you have a monster and everybody knows it's a monster. But just put a collar on his neck, he'll be fine.
Just leave it alone.
He's eating babies. He's eating fucking dogs, cats, he's. He's eating everything like a. Sir, listen, he was here first. They were here first.
Oh, Joe, everybody's eating babies in Hollywood. You know that. That's not just the mountain lion, baby.
Yeah, it's different. That's a different kind of cult. They. They had this lady in Malibu and she had an alpaca farm and this mountain lion was up her alpacas. So if a, if a mountain lion just realizes that animals are stuck in a pen, it doesn't just kill what it needs to kill, they only kill what they need to, to survive. It does what's called surplus killing. It just starts going ham. And it killed like eight or nine alpacas before it got bored, just ran, just got annoyed. 12?
So many.
Oh, my God. So this lady got a depredation permit and then when she filed for this depredation permit and went public and she started getting death threats.
Why?
Because you can't kill the mountain lion. You can't kill the monster, right? And this again, this is someone for someone who's seen mountain lions in public. I love mountain lions. I love them. I think they're amazing. One of them killed my dog in Colorado. Okay. Yeah, But I love mountain lions. They're awesome. They should definitely be around. But when they kill 12 alpacas, like, maybe gotta send a message. Yeah, fuck you, bro.
To be good. Can you show me a picture of an alpaca, though?
While not in Malibu, another major mountain lion attack on an alpaca farm occurred in Lake County, California in August of 2025. In this incident, a band of mountain lions killed 17 alpacas over the course of several days. Holy shit, man. The attack prompted authorities to issue a lethal depredation permit and reiterated that when in an enclosed area, a mountain lion's predatory instinct can lead to the overcast kill of multiple animals. We need them. They're an important part of our ecosystem. That is la. That's la. It's suicidal empathy.
Yeah.
Attached to a ridiculous ideology.
I don't mind that thing being. Those are ugly. Get rid of those things. Well, mountain lions did it. I'm on the mountain lions team. Yeah, get that thing out of here.
You just can't have cocky animals.
What is that? What is an alpaca good for? Why do people bring breed them? What's the deal?
Probably the fur.
I bet they're bull.
Yeah, I think alpaca, they make socks out of them. I'm pretty sure our hollow socks. Aren't those socks made with alpaca stuff? They're really good solid socks.
Alpaca fur is supposed to be better. Is it better? I mean, we've been doing pretty good for cotton. Cotton's been all right for a while, huh?
Oh, no, no, no. Cotton is not nearly as good as wool.
Okay.
I'll take it all for stuff like that. The reason why, like wool, like people think, oh, wool's not necessary. You could have. One of the reasons why wool is necessary, the reason why people use it in the first place is because you could be wet with wool on and you stay warm. If you're wet with cotton on, you're.
We've been in a pool with a shirt. Yeah. You know, we've been to the beach. Yeah.
But it's just if you're in the woods and you go hiking, you get sweaty and then it gets cold out and you're stuck out there. You're.
But wool stays.
Wool stays wood warm. It's really amazing. Most significant use fiber production. Alpacas being bred for their soft, fine fleece that's used to make high quality clothing, blankets and other textiles. So that's the thing about, like stuff that's natural, like wool, in particular, merino wool. It also doesn't smell bad. Like you could sweat in it for days and you don't stink. Like if I wear like a synthetic undergarment and I'm hiking, like if we're camping or if I'm in the woods for a couple days. Days.
You.
If you have anything that has like a plastic in it, a nylon, like any kind of a Synthetic, like undergarment. They stink. They smell so.
Yeah, gross.
They smell so bad.
It's like a hockey bag.
You want to just peel them off you and you get it and you take it off. You smell it, you're like, what the. You smell wool. You could wear it for days and days and days. You don't stink in it.
That's. Wow.
Because it's natural. Yeah, it's the best they make. It makes the best socks. It makes the best, like my friend's company, First Light, I think they were like one of the first companies that started doing merino wool. And they, they make like merino wool undergarments.
And what's merino wool?
It's. This is a type of wool, but it's like this very fine wool that like, it feels like a cotton. It feels like this. And you put it on as. As long like undergarments, like a base layer. And if you sweat, you're okay. If you sweat with cotton on, you're in real trouble, man. Yeah, it's real trouble.
Stinks.
So that's why you need alpaca. I don't even know if alpacas work the same way, but merino does.
We'll keep them.
The point is these mountain lions, you gotta. You gotta let them know who's boss. Yeah, Like, I'm not for killing mountain lions. I think they're awesome. I love them. But I'm for killing some mountain lions, you know, I'm not for killing them.
All just to few.
I'm not like, kill them all. I'm like, no, you need a balance out there. Otherwise you got an overpopulation of animals.
Right?
But what you don't need is them killing your kids, okay? Because they will kill your kids. It's a mountain lion. They don't give a. You leave a four year old inside and you're on the phone. And then I told him, you have to respect me. I've been in this office for. And you hear, and your kids, the back of your kid's head is caved in now. And this cat's running over a fence with a them. And you turn around, your kid's gone. Like, yeah, that's real.
That's real, dude.
That's real. That's a cat. It's a giant cat that you can't control. And if it decides it's gonna kill you, you're helpless. So shut the fuck up with all this Narnia nonsense. Shut up. You gotta kill a few of them. You gotta let them know who's the Boss. You can't come in my fucking neighborhood, shithead. You don't put a collar on them and take pictures. So cute that they're in our neighborhood. Look, they're camping in front of my house. Yeah, they're waiting for your kid to go get his ball. Are you fucking crazy? They just ate your neighbor's dog. Now they're waiting for your kid to get his ball.
Authorities kill mountain lion after 11 year old girl attacked at the California home. Yeah, there you go. In Malibu. Yeah, a month last month.
Just shut the fuck up, you people. You're out of your mind.
Yeah, we are. It's great.
It's like these people are. They don't know what animals are. They think they're living in a movie. They don't. With the Charlie Kirk thing. They don't know what an assassination is. You're cheering that if someone got killed with gun violence. You're supposed to be the anti gun violence people, right? You're cheering for gun violence. Do you know how fucking crazy this makes you look? You're cheering for gun violence against a guy who deplored violence.
Right. Adamantly Was pretty loud about it too.
It's so stupid.
Well, the disconnect, that's. The really sad thing is that the death doesn't even. When people die, it doesn't even feel like anything anymore for people, they're like whatever.
They don't feel like it's a real person because they're used to talking about people and talking to people in a digital form online with no impact, like no consequences of, you know. No, you don't feel it from the person. You don't feel empathy because you hurt their feelings, you know, it's just dead. Yeah, it's sociopathic, you know, and it's like people just. I did not, I wasn't. I didn't know too much about Charlie Kirk. What I knew about him was some of the clips, like I think most of us did, some of the clips that you see online of him debating college kids. And I always thought, okay, I could see the point for it because, you know, these are voters and these are young people and they have been indoctrinated in a certain way, I think, thinking. And they probably never encountered anybody who can articulate what the other opinion is like, what a conservative perspective is like, what they think, the way they think you should approach life the way they. You don't get to hear that at universities. You get to only hear one side of things. So on that side, I'm like, okay, that's good about it, but it's also, like, you're dunking on these young kids.
But also, they should know that they could be dunked on because their ideas are suck. Right.
Or be challenged at the very least.
But the fact that that was enough to make people happy and cheer that he died because he was effective in what he was doing. That's what it was. And they felt like he was indoctrinating kids. Well, guess what? That's what conservatives feel like every day. They feel like you're indoctrinating kids when you're gaslighting people and saying, there's nothing wrong with having a drag queen story hour for kids. Like, no, it's not. Let's. You know what? We need ball gag story hour, too, because it's a fetish, right? So let's. Let's have strap on story hour. Like, let's get crazy. Like, what are we talking about? No, no. There's nothing wrong with being a drag queen. But there's something weird about wanting to be alone and read kids a story where you dress like a woman and you're not and you're doing this for some weird kink.
It's just weird that it's like a. It's weird that it matters, that it's, like a fight thing people fight about. You're like, how is that?
Probably not. Yeah, it's probably more the algorithm bullshit. Yeah.
I bet you it's not. It's not.
It's probably. And then, by the way, actual drag queens, like, I don't know where I could read the kids, pick up a couple hundred bucks.
Yeah. It's like, side game.
Great gig.
Yeah.
And then all of a sudden, these, like, super progressive schools are like, I'm booked up. Booked up in all the progressive school while she's chain smoking Camels. But by the way, speaking of sheep, have you heard Ghost Face Killas Sons diss track?
No. Okay, to who?
To Ghostface Killer. Now, I don't. First of all, I do not know if this is real in this day and age of fucking crazy AI And. But it's going all over the Internet.
Son going after him.
Ghost son, who may or may not identify as a woman. I am not sure, so I want to be careful. Sure.
Sure is going after Ghost.
In these days, you don't watch the FCC breathing down your neck for being inaccurate. Mr. Santino.
No, no. Don't. Don't ban me. Don't ban me, fcc.
But, bro, the flow, it makes you think, like, okay, Ghost Face Killer, son. Infinite Coals airs out family issues on two new songs. Okay. I'm. I don't. Generally don't like hearing people air out their family beefs live.
Yeah.
But put that aside and listen to the flow because this fucking dude, this shit is hard. This dude can rap, man. But it just makes sense because it's like, can we play a little of it and then edit it out? Yeah, we'll edit it out. Not fucking pretty good, bro. Not fucking bad.
I'll be in my head all day today, bro.
That was good.
Sweet face. Killer.
I mean, I don't know what kind of a cry for help that is, but.
Well, it's clear they don't get along.
Yeah, it seems like I'm mad at you, but fucking, what a flow. Like super talented in that. Crazy how like that kind of shit's genetic sometimes.
100%, you know for sure, you know.
You ever heard like, someone who, like their dad was like a really good singer, then you hear them singing like, how are you doing that?
Oh, yeah.
Where is that coming from? You got it like in your jeans.
You know, Elsie Cook is this guy.
They responded and said, it's not a diss.
Not a diss.
Oh, it's not a diss.
That's great.
I couldn't. Not a diss. But thank you so much. Okay, good.
It sounded even better. Sounded like that.
That sold it. That got people to look at it. Oh, my God. Well, that's the thing about rap music. You say things quick enough and fast enough. People like, oh, did he diss him?
Is he on right now?
I missed that.
No, it is genetic. Do you know who else he Cook is?
No.
Sam Cook's brother. Oh, crazy dude. It's. It's kind of wild like he sounds.
Brother is one thing, though, because they grew up together.
Yeah, but that talent, that. The fact like Sam was so, so good. LC Wrote, I rumored. I don't know how much of this is true, but LC wrote a lot of co wrote and helped a lot of stuff with Sam. But you listen to that record right there?
Which one?
That Put Me Down Easy. That record is one of my favorite songs.
Listen a little. We'll listen.
I love this song, man.
We'll have to edit this out too. Sorry, folks. And you can Elsie Cooks. Put Me Down Easy. Damn, that's very good.
And I just. Just the lyrics hit me so hard when he's like, look, I know you're gonna screw me over. Will you just.
Yeah.
Don't make me just do it quick.
Put me down easy, baby.
Just do it fast, dude. Just get it over with.
Yeah, don't drag this out. Just get it. Don't pretend we might get back together again.
Oh, it's such a good song. But he. But that's what I mean is like. Just cuz they're brothers. Yeah, but that's exact. It sounds like Sam reimagined. It's almost like A.I. sam. Yeah, because I love Sam. But that sounds exactly like.
There's a bunch of those guys from back in the day that kind of slipped through the cracks.
Right? They never. They never got the thing.
This just some of them like they had some great ass songs. What is that Strawberry Fields guy? I think Gillis told us about it. Who?
The kid that plays.
Remember that one? Jamie? Do you remember that song? It's on the Spotify here. Let me see if I can find it because it's on my Spotify playlist. Chat. Gtbc Chat. GPT Rather still listen to me. That turn.
I turn that off.
She wants to know where are you getting your information from? Do you ever feel bad about what you say?
Did she say that didn't sound so funny.
No. That would be funny though.
Joe Rogan. Your perspective is just yours.
Here it is. Strawberry letter 23 oh by Shuggy Otis.
That's a cover song.
Is it? Yeah, yeah, it's. It's.
It's originally by the Brothers Johnson.
Oh, that's a cover song. Yeah, I heard this.
It's in the.
Here's my fate. But it's like that's such a good song.
I heard the background of another song. I was like, do you guys hear that? Is anyone hearing that? No one knew what the. I was talking about you baked out of your head.
You want to know? You want to hear the number one? This is the number one most ridiculous song that for some reason or another the guy didn't become famous. This is from 1969. It's a guy named Johnny Thunder and he made this song called I'm Alive. And Brian Simpson brought into the green room in the mothership. He's like, this is gonna be one of your new favorite songs. Like you gotta listen to the song. And I played it in the green room and I was like, oh my God, I'm alive. And then we had to look it up and we. There was a bunch of misinformation and disinformation online. Couldn't figure out who this cat was. Apparently he recorded this song. It was a cover of another song that had been recorded by another artist. Like a band that was Pretty famous. I forget who it was. Who's the other band that recorded it? Like a known name. And his version is so much better. It's so much better. It's so good.
Yeah.
That you listen to this and you're like, oh, this guy's gonna be famous. There's no way. Like, if I was living in 1969 and I heard that song on the radio, I'm like, oh, we got a new superstar. Who's this guy?
Listen, did he die early? Is that what it is? He died. Yeah. Young.
I don't know when he died. I think we looked that up as well. When did Johnny Thunder. The first recording of it? Yeah, he recorded it, but it was not his song. It was the other band. Song was the other band. Well, that might not even be true. Right?
That's something.
They might have him over. I'm like, no, we're gonna do our version.
That's our song.
Excuse me. He's gonna contact you.
How many times that happened? They were like, this is a good song. That's Elvis's song now.
Yeah. Elvis owns that song. Yeah. If you want to sue Elvis, try to get that song back.
Recorded it, too. Tom Jones.
Jones. But that was afterwards. Correct. Who was the other band, though, that recorded.
Deep Purple had a version of it.
And another group, another version.
Deep Purple. Deep Purple.
That's it. Deep Purple was famous. God damn. That's a good song.
That's a damn good song.
That's a damn good song. I would pet everything I had in 1969. Johnny, you're going to be huge.
Huge.
Huge. You're gonna be huge. I could see it right now, Madison Square Garden. Johnny Thunder sold out. Oh, my God.
How is that. That's got. That feels like a Tarantino movie. Do you know what I mean?
Like, that. The guy is that good. You just write him songs. You.
Yeah, just give him the song.
Get a team together. Get Johnny a nice apartment. Johnny, we got it.
He just died a year ago.
Wow.
He died last year? Yeah, last year in Winter Park, Florida. How old? 93. Wow.
That might have been when Brian Simpson brought that song. No, we were talking about it more than a year ago.
Because it made it on the commercials and stuff after the fact.
That's right. So we started talking about it, and then it made it into commercials. Like, they started using it for, like, Jeep commercials or some shit.
I don't know.
It was Jeep. What was it?
Samsung and Lincoln and something else. He dies, you talk about it, it goes viral. They're like, you should Use that song.
Well, I'm glad they did. Just so people, more people hear it it. But there's people like that that just sort of slip through the cracks of history and for whatever reason we don't need never hear about it. But that guy's that guy.
That's good. That's very, very.
That's like platinum selling album good. Like you hear that song like, oh, okay, you. We got it right. All we need is a bunch of those.
Yeah, we need to turn those out.
Listen, we got a bunch of guys that are like Chris Stapleton type dudes. Just write songs, right? There's like, if you're a Nashville person person, there are songwriters, professionals who will sit down and they will come up with a jam for you. And then, you know, you just start doing arenas. Let's go.
Let's go.
Why are you driving a regular car, Johnny?
Johnny Thunder.
Johnny Thunder, let's go. Thunder. You need a Mercedes Benz S Class. Johnny Thunder.
You want a limo?
Johnny Thunder, Thunder. You need to start flying private. Yeah. There's certain guys like that. You're like, man, he just didn't have the right team around him or something else.
Or he was making more or life got in the way or he was making more money working on other people's saboteur.
You know, some people are self sabot.
We know these people in the business.
Oh yeah, man. There's a lot of guys that we both came up with that, you know, you look back and you go, I thought that guy was going to be huge.
Yeah, man. I think about that all. There's a few people that I know that it bums me out. Because you're like, what were you afraid of that the thing. Because you could have had it.
I don't know if it's that. I think there's a lot of it is just being on your own and not having any kind of support in terms of like a community of friends. I think that's a lot of the reason why a lot of people, as they get older especially start behaving really irrationally and losing their mind is they're alone essentially. They don't have a family. They dedicated their entire life to their career and then they get to a certain age and there's no one who's really excited about them out there in the world and they get real bitter.
That's very sad.
It's very sad. But they just. They missed out on the fun part. The fun part is having a bunch of friends. Like that's the fun part. Yeah, it's the most fun part. Like, Stan Hope said this famously once. He said I could quit comedy, but I could never quit comics. Yeah. Like, that is more fun even than doing stand up is hanging out with comics.
Yeah.
And we're all just being silly together. It's fun. Like, we were in Chicago a couple weeks ago. Yeah. What a great time. We had a great fucking time. Santino sat right behind me while the fights are going on. We had some fucking great food.
That was. That was a. We had late night. We had late night Italian beef.
Yeah, it was great.
You know how cool of a day that was for me? I went to the Cubs game, I sat behind home plate, and then I went right from the Cubs game to come see you. It was like a monumentous day. I told my cousin Luke, I was like, this is like going to be one of the best days I've had. And it just like, I was riding on a high all day.
Oh, yeah.
Cruising.
What a day.
1. Last night, I was at your club having a fun time with all the boys. Gillis came down and, you know, when he comes down and has to, you know, that's when he starts it up, dude.
Yeah, I know. He's the best. That club's got a great vibe, man. Really does. It's got a great vibe. And that's the thing. It's like if you're on the outside, you look at it and go, oh, those people. That's a completely normal way to react. Sure, it's completely normal.
Yeah.
But we're not saying. You like. No, trust me. Just relax.
Just relax.
We're all okay. That we. We should not be worried about this. Stupid. And this is one of the things that I always hope happens when there's a tragedy, like a public figure gets executed as people just start just having a little grace. Just to give people a little grace. Just.
Just a little bit more.
Yeah. Take the temperature down, America. Because regardless of who shot that guy, that guy was shot. And then the reaction was horrible. And then the reaction to the reaction is equally horrible. Everyone's horrible. Right? We're a community. We're supposed to be a community. You know, it's not supposed to be right versus left. That's stupid. We don't want to do World two. War. War three in the continental United States. We don't want another fucking civil war. That's crazy. Just. We need to stop. Just stop being so divisive and stop rewarding politicians for being so divisive. Jimmy Kimmel Jimmy Kimmel Returns ABC and suspension Starting Tuesday. See? Called it.
You did.
Called it.
You know what's interesting? You know what I thought he was going to do is get into different media now, like Conan with this podcast. I thought he was going to do that, too.
Well, that probably would be a good thing for him to do.
I could see him do that.
But they're really smart to do this because the wave of people watching, I bet he gets the highest ratings he's ever had.
Ever. Ever.
They'll be nuts. Yeah, the ratings would be nuts.
Look at that coming back.
Listen, man, it's like you can't. It's the Streisand effect. You can't do that. You can't remove someone for talking badly about you in 2025. If that's what happened.
If that is the way. If that's what happened.
If that's what happened. I suspect there's a lot of factors. One of the factors is declining ratings, right? So as the ratings go down, then people get more and more sensitive about subject matter, more and more sensitive about advertising because, you know, you're already like, the show is kind of in a bad direction as it is. Look, the ratings are dropping because people getting annoyed with it being too political or whatever narrative they could say.
Sure.
And, you know, there's advertisers that get upset because they might be right wing. It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill timed and thus insensitive. The statement said, we have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday. Good, good, good, good. So in my mind, in my mind, he wins, right? He wins. But, you know, take the temperature down, everybody. Like, we don't want more killings. We want to figure out what's the right thing for everybody and classifying someone. Like, I've heard people say the worst shit about Charlie Kirk post his death. And like I said, I wasn't too aware of what the stuff that he had done. I was aware of some of the things that he'd done that were really brilliant. Some conversations that he had that I thought were very kind. And I was aware of some of the things that he said. I was like, oh, why'd you put it that way? You know, like, why did you say that? Like. Like, that's. You're just. Even if you. You're Even if it's possible to take something like that out of context, it makes you look terrible, Right?
But it is just out of context. That's the problem. But out of context works in this day and age. So I just wish he hadn't said the things that he said the way he said them. But I don't, don't think he's an evil person. So to celebrate the murder of a person that I think is genuine, generally a very kind and a very nice person who was just good, good at debating, but not always even totally accurate. Like there's been some, some good critiques of some of the debates that he had with college kids that are online where he's like, no, he's not correct with what he said. Like he was. One of the things is about George Floyd and he was, he kept saying that the medical examiner said that George Floyd would have died of that overdose. That's not true. And we've heard that too. And so then we looked it up, right? And it wasn't. The medical examiner didn't say that. Correct. I don't think that's true. And I think he had already printed a retraction. But see, this is the problem with like a debate in a microphone, in a public place where people are cheering and screaming and you're trying to form your argument.
You're not even good at doing it and you're doing it to a guy who's a professional at doing this. And it's like it's a stupid way to have conversations, but better than no way at all, right? And yeah, it's colleges. You don't get any of those kind of conversations with your professors.
That's why it was really healthy for him. That's, I think, you know, a lot of people say, oh, he targeted young people. And you're like, well, there's two ways to look at that. One, it's because I feel like they are the most susceptible to maybe hearing you out. Right? You're not changing my dad's mind, I'll tell you that. He's not gonna go fucking. He's got his perspective.
Feet above the couch, shut the fuck up.
No, but I think that, that. And then the other side is it's not to prove that he was going to outwit these people. I think it was to have actual discourse and to start discourse on campus.
It was also to get popular.
Yeah, well, he wanted to be famous.
He's doing this and spreading these ideas, but he believed in it. He's very religious. But here's the thing, like he's not this terrible person that they're trying to make him out to be. So to take a 31 year old guy who is A father, and he's got two very young children. And he's married, he's got a family. He's got this wife who loves him. And to cheer that he got shot in the head for his ideas. We've lost the plot. Like, we've lost the plot. If there's a group of children out there in college, young people out there, rather young, young adults that are cheering and then older adults too, who are cheering. This, my friend was in a coffee shop and this lady was beside him on a zoom call and she. This is like right after Charlie Kirk was killed. And she gets on her zoom call and she goes, well, I had an unexpectedly great day today. How about you girls? And they were like, today was amazing. And they weren't really saying why today was amazing, but it was very clear that they were celebrating the fact that this guy, who was a father and a husband was murdered before his idea.
That's not the way to do it, folks.
You may not like what the guy says, for God's sake. I didn't like everything the guy said, but. But when they. People were like, it's so short sighted. Yeah, this is what we need. You're like, dude, how is your brain functioning like that?
It's so crazy. It's so crazy. It's all just infected by social media. And all these people who think like this are all online almost all day.
Yeah, they live in it.
Yes, they live in it. They're in the shit all day long. Like reading the comments and you're getting. Getting poisoned. You're losing your humanity. That's not a normal way to think.
Go outside.
Yeah, you need more than that. You need mushrooms and hugs. You need a lot. But this fucking thing that we're all caught in, this tide of electronics is leading us in that direction. It's like an inhuman reaction. You're separated from the norm of human interaction. Interaction, like the warmth of a person's smile and give me a hug. Like all that stuff that. How many times you've been in a conversation with a person, you disagreed with them and you both start laughing at the end of it.
That's every comic conversation I have.
Yeah, but online it doesn't happen that way. It doesn't even happen sometimes with people, you know, like. Like I was in the woods in Utah for a week. I was out there elk hunting. And there's no service out there. There's like a little bit of service. Like one peak you get at. You could make a few phone calls and check text messages. And so I was getting some text messages that were showing me that Kimmel got fired. And like, oh, look at this. Jesus Christ. This is crazy. And my thought was, what did he say? Oh, my God. What did he say? He said something about Charlie Kirk after he got killed. That's crazy. Then I saw what he said. I was like, well, that's not that bad. No, that's not acting accurate. But it's like in my mind as a comic, I'm like, he's just setting up this bit. I'm like. And then I'm watching everybody freak out about this. Like, and then I saw it. Okay, am I looking at it wrong? Okay. It is kind of misleading because he's kind of saying that they're trying to label this person as anyone other than themselves, which is like a little weird political finger pointing.
Yeah. So that's not. That's. That's inaccurate. But instead, instead I didn't get upset. I didn't understand. And then I started really realizing that people were upset at me because I wasn't saying anything. I was in support of it. I was like, I'll show you a.
Picture where I am right now hunting elk.
Yeah. Like, literally, this is a picture where I was. Yeah, I was up in the mountains. But even then, like, you don't get to tell people what they should and shouldn't comment on. On. While you're silent about Gaza.
Yeah.
What are we talking about? If I check. If I go through your social media and there's no organized outrage about what's happening right now in Gaza and you're upset that there's a comedian that got. For a few days, his show got stopped because he said mean things about the president. Like, there's some other shit in the world that might be more important than this and you might need medication. You might be. You might be a fucking crazy shut in. You might be a person that's addicted to your phone and get the fuck outside.
Yeah. Get off your fucking.
You don't require other people to comment on things. You know, I read one comic said if you don't. If you have a big platform and you're not commenting, all I could see is how much you love the taste of boot leather. Like, settle, fuck up, settle down.
Or I'm with my family right now having a meal.
This is one of the reasons why I've been on. Off social media for like the last seven, eight months mostly. Like, I'll look at it occasionally. I hardly ever post. And if I do post, it's just stuff about shows like I did a show here. Here's a picture of this fun thing. That's it. But I don't read anything about me at all. I know guys that have lost their minds. They're in that all day long. Having conversations with people on Twitter all day long. Debating points, arguing stuff all day long. Making response. Response videos, making other videos, going and talking about it on a podcast. Like, what are you doing with your life, man? Yeah, this is nuts.
Well, everybody raised a lot of these people that were like, boycott ABC and Disney. Cancel it. And I was like, well, don't do that.
Not only that, they made video. Ron Perlman made a video, subscribed, and then unsubscribed.
Like, what are you doing, dude? Like, settle, Relax, relax.
But also, so if it is that the government tried to silence Jimmy Kimmel because they were trying to push through some sort of a merger, and he doesn't like Jimmy Kimmel. So they try. Yeah, that should be exposed.
That's fucked up.
I'm gonna need to see some emails.
I want to see them emails.
I want to see some emails. This is one of the reasons why you need that Israeli spying software.
Yeah, we got to get that.
We need it all. Everyone needs it. We have no encryption. No encryption anymore. We need to all read each other's phones. I need to know, what did you guys plan?
Would you. You say, show me what you say, show me. Show me what you show me. Show it right now. I think they're gonna come out and find out there. We'll. We'll find out. It'll get exposed.
Jamie, tell me if this is true, that there is a. This is something that someone sent me that every Samsung phone from 2022 on has something installed in it called AppCloud.
App Cloud.
Yeah. And it's a back door. And it allows you. Here, I'll send you this thing. Jamie, I do not know if this is true. It sounds ridiculous. It allows someone to potentially get into your phone. But I asked a friend of mine who said, legit expert in this kind of shit. He said, all they need is your phone number. All that stuff is nonsense. I go, really?
That easy?
It's that easy with Pegasus 2? He goes, all. He needs your phone number. And all this thing of, like, backdoor apps. Apps like.
Yeah, so what? They need your phone number? They can just access everything?
Everything.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, it's a joke.
Why aren't we doing that then, to people that we need to access their phones?
The only way? Well, they do. That's how the Israelis Everybody up. You got to give it to them, dude. Them pagers, like that was.
That pager was wild.
Genius. One of the most genius operations I've ever heard a government pull off. Send people pagers, keep the pa. They have those pagers for a long time before they blow them up. How long did they have those pagers before they detonated them, Jamie? I want to say it was over a year.
It was like a government sponsored program. They gave them to these people, right? Is that what it was?
Well, the thing is, they were using pagers because they knew that if they were using cell phones, that the Israelis had electronics that could read everything.
Sure.
So they could spy on all their phones. So to get around that, they decided to use pagers. So the Israelis knew that they were going to use pagers because they have people embedded in these organizations. They have people that are literally acting like they're Hezbollah or Hamas. They're inside there, and then they're Israelis. And so these people got a hold of their order before they. So they order a bunch of pagers, they get a hold of it, rig it with detonations, rig it with explosives, repackage it, send it to them. So then they get it, like, good. Got the pager. Fuck these Israelis. They're putting a little bomb right next to your dick. Crazy. And you're walking around with this thing for, I think, a year or so.
Jesus.
Five months. I can't hear you.
I'm seeing five months.
Five months.
No, no, the actual.
But it wasn't. Yeah.
It didn't all happen in one.
Okay, for how long? An hour. So for an hour, everywhere you look, pages are blowing up on dudes, dicks. And think about where your pager is. It's right.
Right there.
Right where your balls are. Boom. Big old bowling ball hole where your legs used to be. Wild. Wild. And they planned it out months and months in advance. How about what they did to the Iranians? Do you know what they did with them? They had this. This thing. They made a phone call. We need a meeting of everybody, meet in the bunker. And they met him, but it was a prank phone call. So all these Iranian guys, they met in the bunker, and they flew. Dusted that bunker, blew it apart.
Well, they thought it was coming from a higher order. And they were like, yeah, we'll see you down there. Yeah.
Oh, boy. We're under attack. Let's go meet at the bunker. Boom.
Boom. That's nuts, dude.
Genius. Yeah, genius.
They know what they're doing. They're plotting.
Oh, they're Real good at it.
They're real good at it.
Yeah, they're real good at it. It's uncomfortable. It's crazy. You know, if, if I was Jewish, I'd be like, yeah, we're the best, bro. We, we remember. Have you at this?
Have you seen what we've been doing?
Yeah. Get everybody to come over here. Put the hat on.
Put that hat on.
Did you see that? Benjamin Netanyahu gave like this two minute speech about how offensive it was that people say that Israel killed Charlie Kirk.
No, he just made it. He made.
He just talked about it, video about it.
And I was like, no one said that.
Like what?
I've never heard.
Tell me more.
Yeah, who said that?
Tell me more. Like who's saying.
See, that's the kind of shit that I think when they plant information like that and then it becomes true. Right. Because then people online do start saying it.
Yeah.
So you're just feeding the false narrative. Becomes a real narrative. And he goes, see, well, it could.
Be that he got hoodwinked. That, like, he's an older dude, right. So he's probably not on TikTok. He probably doesn't have his thumb to the pulse of the young people. And someone comes in, like. Cause like, Trump didn't understand when he would go to his rallies and he would talk about the vaccine, the people would be, boo. He didn't understand. Why are they booing? The vaccine was amazing. I did it. It was all me. And they're like, no, no, no, we don't like the vaccine. He didn't know. So he doesn't have his thumb on the pulse.
Right.
So if someone comes to him, Bibi, they're saying, we did it, we didn't do it. They're saying, we did it. You really need to tell us, well.
I'll tell people that we didn't do it.
He goes out and responds, well, he looks like he did it now.
Right, Right.
And that could be a trick because there's still a bunch of people in Israel trying to get rid of him too.
Oh, yeah.
Like the day of October 7th, the day before, there was thousands of people in the streets protesting him.
Right. They don't like him.
Well, there's some people that do. There's some people that don't just like Trump. You know, you could say, oh, the Americans hate Trump. No, half the Americans hate Trump. Half the Americans think he's the shit. They love it. They think they're like, tired. They're tired of liberals, they're tired of people with blue hair. Screaming in their face.
They're tired and there's a contingency of people that don't give a fuck, but they're like, that's fine, I don't care.
They don't. They'll join the Republicans because the other people are so annoying. At least the Republicans leave them alone. That's what happens.
They just want to be left alone.
Yeah, you guys are screeching and telling people what to do and what they have to say. Like, you know, you. You do what I tell you to. You take that post down. Like you do what the. Yeah, yeah. See what I'm saying?
Take that.
Yeah, you take that post down. They want control over you expressing your opinions. That ain't good from either side, kids.
That's dangerous. There's something with the app called I found the post you posted, but I just asked Grok instead to see what it said. What did Grock say?
Brock says it's a pre installed system service on many Samsung Galaxy smartphones, particularly mid range and budget models like the A series as well as some of the S series device devices. Depending on the carrier or region, it functions as an app recommendation and installation tool that suggests and promotes third party apps, often games and promotional content based on user behavior, location and preferences. This is part of Samsung's partnership with carriers and app developers to generate revenue by subsidizing device costs through the preloaded or suggested installs. Boy, I don't like all that.
There's a bunch of videos and posts about how to take it off and.
How to disable it, but so it's widely viewed as bloatware or adware due to its intrusive nature. It can be easily uninstalled. Oh it can't be easily uninstalled. And notifications are non dismissible of oh that's gross. It's not essential for core phone function is often absent from carrier free or unlocked devices bought directly from Samsung. Okay, so it's not a Samsung issue, it's someone else puts it on a Samsung phone. There's no verified evidence supporting claims of data being sent to external entities like intelligent firms. These appear to stem from misinformation on social media or you're lying. When I looked it up.
This post people were posting on Instagram two days ago. It mentions Iron Source, which that did not so it googled. Iron Source is really software company when.
You said Israeli software company, now part of Unity that provides a platform for mobile app creators to monetize their apps through user acquisition and advertising. Funded in 2010 significant presence in Tel Aviv companies merged with the US gaming firm Unity in November 2022 to form an end to end platform for the app economy. What does that mean? I mean, what was all that. What did you just say?
What'd you say, man?
What are you talking about?
Israelis. Iron Source Trades.
They are the best at it. They figured out Pegasus. That's how whoever got Jeff Bezos got him. They got him through a WhatsApp link. So that was the first Pegasus. I'd send you a WhatsApp message. Like, Santino, you got to check this out. And you'd be like, well, is it? And so you check out some, you know, some X article that I send you, but as you're clicking on it, it puts an exploit into your phone. So now they have full access to your phone. They get all your dick pics, all your photos, all your dirty little text messages.
All my dick pics are from Jamie.
But now with Pegasus 2, all they need is your phone number. Just your phone number.
Bonkers.
Yeah. That's so dark, it's nuts.
How can they protect that? You can't protect. Protect that.
Yeah, it's. It's really hard. And then you think, well, I'll just use Encrypt apps, Encrypted apps. Like.
Well, WhatsApp does that, right?
WhatsApp. Yeah. And then there's also Signal, and then, like, Telegram and a few other ones, but they can get in those, too, if they want to. They did it with Tucker Carlson. Tucker Carlson was going to. To the Soviet Union or doesn't exist anymore. He was going to Russia to talk to what's. See, that was a Freudian, because they're probably trying to bring that bitch back. He was going to Russia to try to meet with Putin, and they found out, and they contacted him, and they said, we read your signal. And he's like, what? I didn't even know you could do that.
What did he say on the. What was it?
His signal? Chat was he was going back and forth with someone about setting up a meeting with Putin. And so the State Department, or whoever it was, whoever it was in the Biden administration. Administration made the call to spend an extraordinary amount of money to unencrypt his signal.
Jesus.
Yeah, and read his messages, because, you know, you're not supposed to be talking to people we don't like.
Can't be talking to people you don't like.
Yeah, we might. Might get a wrong opinion of who that person is, which I kind of get it. I know what you're Saying, I don't ever think that not talking to people is the solution, but I do understand what they're saying.
Yeah, but traditionally, don't we usually try to talk to people so we can try to figure out how we can make some headway?
It would be the better option for everybody, especially if cooler heads could prevail. But the thing about this Ukraine, Russia thing is, like, I think Trump grossly underestimated the amount of work that it's going to take to stop this. You know, when he got, when he was running, he was saying that, one day get me in the office and one day I'll have a job. Deal.
No, there's no deal.
There's no deal. And the thing is, like, Putin is very smart. He's not going to, you know, he's going to play. He's like going to cat and mouse this. Like, you can't just say, I'm going to be able to do a deal with Putin, you know, because I'm the alpha. He's like, really?
It's not how it works.
I feel like pushing into Poland, you know, and like, things can get real squirrely because of that, because you can't. That. That's a former KGB guy who is like a Russian nationalist. Right. Like, he's the president of Russia for how long now? How long has he been running Russia?
Forever. I mean, since I can remember. I don't know. How long has he been around?
You can't out alpha that guy.
No, he's the guy.
Yeah. I mean, maybe you can have some sort of a deal could be made, but if you think you're going to be able to say, I'll have a deal tomorrow, he's like, nah, no, you won't. I don't think so. Yeah, I'm going to the woods. I'm going to go. I think you will. Yeah, I think you'll wait. He's a ride the bear with no shirt on.
I think you have to wait. I will write bear.
You know, there's a lot of people that think he might be one of the richest men alive.
Well, they don't disclose, so who knows?
He has no idea. No one has any idea how much money he has, you know, and he's not gonna just listen, Neil. No, you're poor to him.
Yeah.
You mean Trump's only got like a couple billion, like, shut up.
You're like, couple billion dollar.
You're good.
It's not bad for you.
I have both your size, size of your entire gdp.
I have yacht the size of White House.
They got some crazy ass yachts they stole too. That was another weird thing. During the Ukrainian invasion, everybody's like, yeah, well, all your rich friends were stealing their boats. They stole all the yachts from all the oligarchs.
Oh, that's.
And I was always like, where do those yachts go? Who gets. Keep them. What's going on?
He's got him.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. They stole it from the Russians, the international community.
Where are they now?
A lot of them are parked in ports and they have to be maintained because otherwise you lose the value of the boats and those vote. Like a boat, like one of them Russian oligarch yachts. Bro, that is millions and millions of dollars every year just to maintain it. Just to maintain, maintain it. Just to maintain it. And then like every couple years, you got to pull it out of the water and they got to clean it, put new paint on it. And like, do you know how much money that costs?
Yeah.
You have to be so rich just to maintain it. And then they just took them from them. And then they just have them somewhere. And then the States paying for it. Yeah, yeah. Like, there's one of them that was in Italy and so the Italians had to pay and they're like, we don't have this money.
I don't want to pay for this.
They're fucking. I mean, how many. Let's find out. Let's take a guess. How many Russian oligarch yachts were captured? How many do you think were confiscated? If you had a guess, I want to say 14.
Oh, I was going to say. I wanted to say something in the number of like 30 or 40. I mean, the amount of money that's out there in these guys, I mean, it's endless. It's endless trail of money. Multiple. I bet you a lot of these people had multiple yachts. I bet they got a yacht for a yacht. You got a tug yacht, you know.
Got a yacht for your hose?
You got a yacht for the hose?
Yeah. For your family?
Family, yeah, yeah.
For your other family. They do.
I get.
They have. They have yachts to get the yacht for cocaine? Yeah, just. This is coke. My cocaine yacht. You want to go all black? Get it, get it. It's all black, not white. Get it? If I trick them, I trick.
I'm clean.
This is where my cocaine is. It looks you could find all the coke. Everything is black. The fraud doors, the tables, let's cook everywhere. You lose a little. You know where it goes. You just look for white stuff you.
Can do wild term.
I don't.
I haven't found the number yet, but one of them I was looking up, they got it in Fiji. And I was already reading about how.
They had it shipped back to Hawaii, but now it's for auction. Oh, so now we should buy it.
Yeah, but now you're gonna be the owner of this Russian guy's yacht that wants it back.
No, no, he's gonna understand because they.
Said he wanted to buy it back.
No, no, I'm gonna tell him. I'm gonna tell him, browse my notes. I. I'm sorry. He'll just let you have it.
300 million.
It was worth 300 million when it was seized in 2022. Look at the size of it.
It has six decks, I think is. What? It's a fucking apartment. 348.
It's an apartment building.
Yeah.
Not an apartment.
That's what I meant, apartment. Apartments.
Yeah.
3.
US government seized the gleaming yacht three years ago when it was docked in a marina in Fiji with local assistance. They argued that the vessel, called Amadea, Latin for God's land love, was owned by Suleiman Kermov, a Russian oligarch under US sanctions with a network of worth of 16.4 billion, according to Forbes and ties to President Vladimir Putin of Russia. Isn't that funny? All you have to do is have ties to when they could steal your boat.
16.4 billion.
Yeah.
And that's probably a guess, right?
Well, that's what's weird. It's like ties to them. Like what? What are the extent of those ties?
Right. How do they know each other? Someone else on another.
On paper, though. Oh, on paper. The owner was a different wealthy Russian, Edward Kudainatov. Kuden, one time pig breeder. Jesus Christ. Who had not been sanctioned by the United States. Mr. Kudenatov's claim on the Amadea began a legal battle that has delayed the yacht sale and could pose problems for its eventual owner. Well, if they just stole it from the pig farmer, then what the fuck us?
Yeah. What are we doing? Doing? How this guy get it?
How'd the first guy get it?
This is obviously bought in someone else's name.
The first guy, you said. Oh, the oligarch.
Yeah, that's who they took it from.
He was borrowing it. He's borrowing it. He asked me to borrow. When you're that rich, bro, it's a flex.
Let me take that yacht.
You want to borrow my yacht?
Take it. I don't give a.
Take the yacht. Kill the Chef. I don't care.
Kill the chef.
Shoot him in the head if you don't like the way your stick is.
The chef's just standing there. Please sp me. There was at least six or seven other yachts dots I was reading up on, and that was not the biggest one.
That's not the biggest one. No, no, no. Whoa. What's the biggest one? They seized.
I'm telling you, these guys are balling.41 meters. That's slightly bigger.
And you wonder why Nancy Pelosi keeps embezzling money like this.
Smart. She wants.
She's not dazzling. She's insider trading.
Yeah.
She's doing it legally, though. Yeah, of course. So what the.
They're all doing.
Why complain?
Yeah. Wow.
Whoa.
That's a little bigger.
See, when you round all this. This, you're like, why did the Russians get all the yachts? Nirvana, Paul, we need more money.
That is insane. Wait, look at. Go back. Look at the size. That little jet ski next to that thing. Look at how big that is, bro.
That. Yeah, it's giant.
It's huge.
Three decks. How many feet long is that?
There's. These are listed in meters. 80 meter, 82 meters.
What is that?
No, it's 240ft. About.
Look at you. That was quick.
It's like three. Yeah, just about three.
There's like a. A formula that you do when you convert, like, meters to meters to yards. How do you do that? Like, someone told me from the archery community told me how to do that. If you have a. A range finder that says meters, 1.09.
1.0, 9.09. Right, that's right. Yeah. Meters and yards.
So if it's like, which one's longer?
Meter.
Oh, okay, so 100 meters. Like 110 yards. Yeah, okay.
Give or take. Yeah.
There you go.
I know. The only reason I know that because of golf. If you golf. If I golf overseas, they always do meters, right? And they don't convert for you. Oh, so you'll go, though when they say it, they'll go, you know, down in Australia, like, 128. And you're like, 120.
Oh, you gotta do it.
I had my phone out at one point, I was like, him on 20.
And I gotta put it, oh, that's funny.
They're making fun of me. Like, come on, Matt. You don't know if you don't know any conversions. I'm like, no, I don't know my conversions, man.
They taught us in high school, and then they gave up.
Well, we get I gave up, but I.
They gave up. Like by the time I was out of high school, they stopped doing it.
Same thing with curse 85.
They gave up, but they gave up on the metric system. In 85, they were going to try to impart the metric system in the entire country.
Yeah, we weren't interested.
Nope. You.
You.
We got the bomb.
We got the bomb, dude. We're doing our own numbers, man.
We're digging into inches. And you could suck my.
Suck my inches.
Inches and pounds. Go yourself with your metric system. It's kind of funny.
Yeah, I like it.
You and soccer. You, You. America was like, we're not doing it.
Yeah, we didn't do it.
Not doing it. Sorry.
Now we gotta. We got a sport like soccer, but it's like concussion. We just run at each other full speed, crushing each other. Gladiator shit.
Yeah. I wonder what's worse for you. That or fighting. I used to think it was that, but then I started watching some documentaries about old time fighters.
Bad.
Oh, my God.
Dude. You remember when the NHL was gonna ban fighting? And then I think they found out there was research that found out that the most concussions that came from on the ice were from board hits.
Oh, yeah.
Heads bouncing off the board.
Yeah, for sure.
So they were like. The fights weren't. Because you're so unstable on skates, the fighting wasn't as brutal as obviously ground fighting because you have, you have. You have stability. Right.
I saw a dude judo throw a guy, though.
It's pretty rad on ice.
Yeah, it's kind of uncool.
It's not cool.
The guy takes his helmet off and you judo throw him. He could die.
Could.
Did he? Easily. I don't know. I don't know what happened. It didn't look like he died, but he definitely got KO'd. Hip tossed him.
Those ice fights, though, they're. They're brutal, but they. The bouncing of the head off the glass.
Watch this. Whoa.
He bounced on his back, I think, bro.
His head hit the ground, son. Look at this. 100%.
It's a good throw.
His head hit the ground. 100.
Yeah, that's not good.
Boom, right there. 100%. There's a bounce.
Yeah, that's not good.
Not good. Not good, dude. Yeah, that was good. Good throw.
I was just saying it's a good throw.
As a guy who appreciates his positioning was perfect. Dude really knew his. That's the thing. If you could teach like a judo practitioner, you could teach like a Carl Parisian or Yoel Romero or Hector L. Well, Yoel Romero was a wrestler, but Hector Lombard, he was a Jiu Jitsu champion from Cuba. Teach a guy like that how to fight in hockey games, you're in trouble. Sorry. Yeah, buddy, grab a hold of your. If he's a really good skater, and I'm sure he's got amazing balance because every judoka has insane balance. You have to be able to like, rotate your, your, your weight, transfer your weight at the split, split second intervals, and you got to be able to manipulate another person's body and weight and the kind of strength that you would have slam someone on the ice like that.
Well, that's when it's over, though. That's the only rule of hockey, right? If you're down, it's out.
Is that the rule?
You can't. Your fight's over when they go down. Yeah, you can't. You can't hit him when he's down.
Aren't they doing like a whole fight league? Were they like a hockey fight thing?
Yeah, I feel like the Russians have that, like a hockey skate hockey fight thing.
Russians have people fighting in cars.
Yeah.
Have you seen the car fights? You buckled up in a seat.
I have seen this.
Yeah.
Yeah. They just start beating the out of each other. That is insane.
It's so insane, dude. It's so insane.
Yeah. These guys, right? Yeah, that's exactly right. There's just, there's just ice.
Oh, my God, this is so crazy. So they have MMA gloves on. They're fighting lot A on ice. This is nuts, dude. This is. Oh, spinning back fist closer to your.
Basketball court thing, though.
There's no wall. Yeah, no. Pretty good idea. Except the whole can't go down on the ground. The, the whole skate thing is nonsense. Like the whole. Why are you limiting people's movement?
Yeah, but it is, it is so much harder to fight on ice. Oh, yeah, it's so hard.
Well, also, it's such a factor that if you're a really good skater but a shitty boxer, you could a guy up. It's probably better than you. You for sure, because he's not going to know how to balance himself. He's transferring weight. You just kind of pop, pop, pop him, and he won't be able to do anything about it. He can keep it together and just like gently pop them, stumbling all over the place. It's just a dumb way to fight.
Ice fights. Ice fights, baby.
It is weird, though, that hockey allows fights.
I love it.
It's weird. It's weird that there's like one sport like it's traditional, weird.
I know, but it is. But, but I do think also because the brutality of the fights wouldn't be as gruesome as that of NBA, NFL, you know.
Right.
So I think they factor in the fact that it's like these fights don't really last long. They get a couple shots, it's usually nobody gets hurt. And they usually break it up pretty quickly.
Yeah.
When the refs can sneak in, they will.
Yeah.
I love it. I think it's such a cool part of the sport.
It's a great part of the sport. Without that, people are going to hit it.
Bare knuckle.
Bare knuckle ice fights, dude. Of course they did. Of course they did. Oh, with the helmets on. The helmets are smart, honestly, because when you get KO'd and your head bounces off the ground, you really need that helmet. But you could also break the out of your hand on that helmet.
Oh, they are for sure. For sure.
Yeah. That's a terrible way to break bare knuckle ice fights.
Sponsored by Buffalo Wild Wings.
Sponsored by Pfizer.
Yeah.
Do you have brain damage? Yeah. Does it make you depressed?
Try taking Zolexans. Toledands will figure everything out for.
For you. Yeah, we live in some weird times, my friend. We really do.
Well, we're trying our best. Yeah, we're trying our best in a totally fucked up time. I do think, I do think we're gonna see a swing. I think things which way. I think things are gonna even out a little bit and get a little bit calmer. I think people, it's so chaotic.
Well, I hope so. I hope cooler heads prevail because we're.
In a bad way.
But there's a lot of people unfortunately in this country that don't see a bright future for themselves. And this is also part of the problem with the narratives that we're being fed on social media is that they start looking at their economic future and it looks very bleak and they want to point a finger at someone like somebody me like why are these people. There's a few people that have all this money, you know, and this is one of the things one of them CEOs was talking about on a podcast that like that they have to be really careful because like once AI does happen happen, like people are going to come for them.
Oh yeah.
Like the people are going to like, did you see what happened in Nepal? They took over the whole government.
They overthrew it.
They overthrew the government and they voted in a new leader on discord that's how they voted in their new leader.
Wow.
They took over the government because the government was trying to impose rules on what they could post online, what they could see online. And the young people had enough.
They were like.
And they're like, e nuff. And it was an actual overthrowing of the government, which I do not know if it was orchestrated by an intelligence agency. That's the problem.
Could be.
I used to think, what a great story. That's so cool that I met Mike Benz. And he's like, no, USA has been funding these things for years. Like, what? No. Yes. It's. He was saying, USA's for things that are too dirty for the CIA. So they farm it off to these NGOs.
The government officials had to leave the parliament building by helicopter.
Whoa, bro.
That's awesome.
They're hanging on to helicopters. That's crazy.
Yeah. I haven't watched a lot of the videos. There's a guy who. I think he was randomly traveling on motorcycle through there while this was happening.
And he's just sort of stayed that.
And he keeps filming, like, on the ground.
Stuff is so nuts. Imagine like, look, we can get you out here, but we don't have time to get you in the helicopter. Helicopter. They're at the door. Just put this fucking thing between your legs and hang on. Do you have gloves? Do you have gloves? Hang on.
Is it in Kathmandu?
By the way, how long do you think you could hang on to that without a strap? Zero seconds.
Not a long time.
Zero seconds. Yeah.
That's gonna be tough.
That's a wire. So.
Yeah, that's tough.
That's a nylon wire.
Nepal is burning.
Wow. The real story behind. Go back. It say, which one was it?
Do that.
Y. Yeah. Nepal. Gen Z. Protest. The real story behind the uprising. Connecting the dots. Look at. They're all fil. Everyone's got their camera out. Some people have masks on. Jesus Christ, man. We live in the dumbest of times, in the wildest of times. The mask thing is like, every time I see someone with a mask on, I'm like, you gotta stop. You gotta stop.
They're everywhere. I still see them everywhere.
But it's like it's a green light for idiots to just also be able to commit crimes because you're allowing people to cover their face, which used to be a red light. Like if you go into a bank with a mask on. In the past, it was like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. This guy's got a mask on. Everybody got their guns out. Now it's Normal.
Normal to see it. But this guy, this fully masked guy, my buddy Sean sent me a video. Video of a guy on his block. Their security camera, broad daylight, middle of the day, getting groceries out of his car with his kid and his wife. Guy runs up to him with a. With a gun, robs him of his watch.
Oh, Jesus.
Broad daylight, fully masked up.
You know, where was this at?
In la, in the Valley. The video is wild, dude. The wife comes out. He points the gun right at the wife.
Oh, my God.
And, I mean, doesn't. Doesn't shoot anybody. Thank God. The guys are. The kids are. Everything was safe. But he got. But he goes, take it off. You can hear the audio. He goes, take it off. And he takes his watch off pretty quickly, gives it to him, and he gets in his car and they speed away. And I was like, this wasn't cruising through the neighborhood seeing a guy unloading his car. They saw him at the grocery store, clocked it.
And we're like, oh, they do that all the time to people.
We're following that guy home. That's what I always say.
If he gets caught, he'll be out of jail. Yeah. No cash, bail.
They're never gonna catch him. The car was stolen.
Even if he gets caught, it doesn't matter. They'll let him out.
Yeah. It's crazy.
What is that about?
I, like, if I wanted to destroy.
Society, that's how I would do it. I just allow. I'm not saying that that's why they do it, but if I wanted to destroy society, I would just say, listen, the way to combat all this inequality in the world is whenever someone gets arrested, you just let them go, because otherwise you're racist. Like, oh, okay. And just let people out. Like, let violent criminals back on the streets. No. Like, none of these people ever have any solution for how to make the places where these people grow up less violent. Violent. Zero. Zero discussion about it. No talk about it. They just think that there's systemic racism, and so that's why people get arrested.
Instead of trying to fix it.
And then the way people can gaslight other people's behavior in order to find some sort of a way of not giving the people on the other side a win. One of the craziest conversations I saw people have online in one of those cable talks shows was they were having a conversation about why this guy would shoot Charlie Kirk. And they were. The angle they were taking was that he was in a relationship, a loving, amazing relationship with another man who was a trans woman.
Charlie Kirk. Was.
No, no, no. The guy was like, what? The guy was the shooter.
Oh, right. Is that true?
That's why. Yeah, allegedly. And that. That's why when Charlie Kirk's words hurt so much that he had to take action like gaslighting and justifying an assassination. Yeah, because this guy was saying mean things about trans people. Hey, don't listen. Yeah, don't listen.
Did he say mean things about trans people, by the way? That's the other thing.
Well, he definitely said that they were not really women. Right. Which I don't think is mean because it's biologically accurate. It's just insensitive to people who want you to go along with it.
Right.
That's what it is.
I just don't follow the man enough. I don't know anything about. I saw clips, so that's all I can. That was my. My perspective was watching him do trolley clips online. I mean, the guy trolled a lot online.
Yeah, well, he did a lot to get people riled up.
Big time. Big time.
A lot about dei. That's one of the reasons why people think he's very, you know, very problematic. He was against. He's also said that the civil rights bill and. But he had a really good point. He said it should be just a one page thing. Instead of that, it should be a one page thing that says it is illegal to discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity. Simple.
Right.
Which makes sense. Like it should be illegal to do that.
It is correct. Yeah.
Yeah. I mean, but it's like, you know, you have all these conversations and some of them, you know, some of them look not so good out of context. And that's easy to do when a guy's 31 years old. If you. If I had a podcast when I was 31, you think people hate me now?
Would have been way worse.
They would have been way worse. Yeah, I would have said a lot of stupid shit.
Oh, dude. We say. I say dumb shit on our show every week.
Well, that's the problem with having a comedy show too, though. It's like comedy show, like, especially when you're talking to comedians. We're so used to talking normal to each other. Just saying what's on our mind.
Yeah.
Saying things that we heard rather than worrying about how other people are going to feel. And when you do that publicly, people are like, you get to talk like that. This is crazy. You guys just said you'd suck each other's dicks for a few dollars. This is crazy. But it's. You're not allowed to do that in most jobs, right? And this, I think, is the origin of all this FCC stuff. I think they wanted to keep it that way. I think they wanted to keep people kind of muted. No swearing. This is what Father Knows best tonight at 8pm Leave it to Beaver. There was all these stupid fucking shows that were like social programming, and they were designed to keep people calm and complacent because we had dealt with 5,000 years of people being murderous barbarians. And so once they got the chance to broadcast things on tv, they just broadcast this bullshit version of a human being. And we just. We all just accepted that that's how people were right? And the only way they could do that is. Is to limit what you're allowed to talk about, limit the language you're allowed to use, and have a bunch of stupid commercials jammed in there every 15 minutes or whatever it is to make you feel stupid.
Just keep shoving that down your throat and it works until you die.
Drink your fucking Ovaltine.
Yeah. And stay away from saturated fat. And that's what they did forever. And now people are kind of waking up that. That's dumb. And I think that's part of this Jimmy Kimmel thing is, like, why one of the things that outrages young people in particular and also comics, but is that we live in a time where you can have a show like this, right? Where there's no one has talked to us before we did this. No one's going to talk to us after. If they do, I don't listen. We just say what we think, and you put it out there, right? Imagine if the government had to get involved, you know, Andrew Santino and Joe Rogan's vile comments. We're going to remove them from the Internet. According to who? So the young people go, who the fuck is that guy?
Right?
It's like Conor McGregor and Jeremy Stevens.
Fork is that guy.
Who the fuck is that guy? Because that's what it's like. It's like, who are you? What does that. And people are just waking up. There's an organization that can tell you what you could say on TV while you have YouTube, while you have X, while you have fucking literal Nazis or posting videos every day. And that's okay. And that can have 24 million views. But this talk show that has like, what was the 18 to 34 of the Jimmy Kimmel Show? That was what was also crazy.
Yeah.
Not good.
No, the numbers were pretty low.
Pretty low.
But all late night in tv.
All late night.
Yeah.
Is low because it's a. It's a lit. Limited format. He would be way better off if he had an Internet show.
100.
100. Just him do whatever the he wants. He'd probably make more money, especially now, which is probably one of the reasons why they wanted to bring him back. They're probably like, oh, it's like, right now is a good time to keep this guy on our side.
100.
Yeah.
Otherwise he flies free.
They fired him, and then he got paid out. Or if he. His lawyers made a deal, like, look, buy him out, we're done. Done. Because I think he only had till the end of the year before they were going to renegotiate a contract anyway.
Oh, I didn't know that.
I think so. That's what I read today. But there's so much misinformation.
Yeah. Who knows what it is?
But I'm gonna need to see some emails. I'm gonna need to see some text messages. I want to know what the. What happened behind the scenes.
Yeah.
Or not. Or we put him back on the air. You guys shut the up. Which seems to be, like, what they did happen.
Yeah.
But anybody that's, like, in support of it, it's like, understand where that goes. Even if he's incorrect. If he's incorrect, people should vote with their viewership. Okay. If you're upset at him that he got that incorrect or that he's politically biased, don't watch anymore. And plenty of people will watch and let the market decide. Don't let the government step in and in the government. And people in the government call you talentless and vile and all these different things, like, settle down.
It is so funny how he's like. He has no tal. You're like, well, I mean, yeah, he's.
Been on TV for. Objectively.
Objectively, he's talented. That's not even as enough.
What does that mean? He's been on the radio, and he's been on TV for, like, 100 years. What are you talking?
Quite talented.
He's my age. He's a dinosaur. He's been. He's been on TV forever. Like, this is crazy.
Yeah.
And he's not Hitler, you know, and neither was Charlie Kirk, you know? And this is where we're lost. Like, there's real monsters in the world. I watched a video today that I shouldn't have watched, and it was a video from Gaza where they found these three men that they suspected of. Of doing something or sharing information with Israel, and they gunned him down on the street, colluding with Israel.
In some way.
And they. The video was horrific. They have these guys blindfolded, they kicked him in the back, face down, down, and just gunned them down in front of everybody. There's a large crowd of people watching and they're all filming gross. And it's horrific, man. It's horrific. It's so rough to watch. Like that's going on right now at the same time as this stupid argument. You know, there's so many things we should be paying attention to. There's so many things that are just absolutely insane in the world right now. And we're focused on this one thing as if this is the end of the world. There's a giant something headed our way that many. These wacko conspiracy theorists that I follow think is a ufo. There's that one that there. Some people think it's a comet. And that Avi Loeb guy from Harvard, he doesn't think it's a comet.
I think it's a ufo.
And he thinks it's some sort of an intergalactic space ship that's traveling from somewhere else.
Come on.
Come near us. And then there's a bigger one behind it. There's a new one that they just discovered very recently.
That's the other yacht. That's the other space yacht.
There's a couple of fucking spaces from space. Russia have to run. They trying to take away spaceship.
We will shoot your yacht into space.
Yeah. Did you see that orb? I sent it to Jamie. So there's this orb that they apparently have carbon dated, dated, and this orb that has all these weird writings on it. It's very strange looking. It's made out of some. Some alloy of aluminum that's three times stronger than military grade aluminum and bugasmere. It got labeled or it got dated to 12, 560 years old.
Holy.
Yeah. So straight from a radiocarbon lab report dated September 19, 2025. So look at that thing. Look at the drawings on it. Like if this thing's actually 12,000 plus years old and has these inscriptions on it that looks like this. Very strange.
Looks like a micro language.
Yeah. And the center of it looks exactly like a microchip. And that this is made out of some sort of an aluminum alloy that's three times stronger than military grade aluminum.
You know what those look like coming out of that microchip, that picture? There's a little mushroom. Mushrooms.
So let's, let's go back, go up a little. Jamie, right here. The sample was treated with HCI, cleaned and burned at 900 degrees centigrade. Or Celsius graphite conversion measured by accelerator mass spectrometer compared against official oxalic acid standards, plus or minus 30 years uncertain. So I sent this to my friend Jesse Michaels, who's got an awesome YouTube channel. You should check it out. It's called American Alchemy. And he is my go to expert when anything is really fucking screwy online. Like, is this real? I'll send him stuff like that. So what he was telling me though, that there is an issue with the actual dating of it. Okay, so the carbon dating is real. And this is from Jesse. And we assume that we have an aluminum spear three times the hardness of modern aerospace aluminum, which was created 12,600 years ago at the start of the younger Dryas. It's a full paradigm shift. On another note, there's. So this is what he was saying though, that there was an issue with the way they analyze it. I can't find it. But what he's saying is that the stuff that's on the outside, like the resin, which is what they're examining.
So the resin that they're examining, there's an issue. Oh, here it is. Apparently when you carbon date the petrochemical resin, you might get an artificially old date. Okay, so. So they're trying to figure this out. When the Georgia team tested, it seemed legit, but there is an issue with modern petrochemical resin. Here, I'll send this to Jamie. It's complicated because the problem with something like that is I want to believe in it so bad. Like, please, space people, come and fix us. These space people, please, we're so retarded. Come get us.
Come get us.
Come get us before we elect Chelsea Handler for president. President. Come get us. Like this. Look at this. So this is what I just saw.
I was reading a Reddit comment about it. It.
The.
This, this is the report. It says analysis for the foruminifer samples for minifers. This a single celled organism.
What not.
Yeah.
What does that mean?
That this. They tested something different than what they're saying they tested. I think that's what the comments.
I thought they were saying. The resin, the resin is treated in ultrasound bath for 30 minutes at room temperature. The sample was dried out and treated with one NHCI to remove possible carbonates. After that the sample was rinsed in ultra pure water and dried at 105 degrees Celsius for accelerator mass spectromecy spectrometry. And now say that five times analysis. The clean samples were combusted at 900 degrees Celsius. Evacuated sealed ampoules. The presence of CuO. The resulting carbon dioxide is cryogenically purified from the other reaction product. Jesus Christ. Reaction products. And catalytically converted to graphite using a method of. Da da, da, da, da. Get to the point. Sample ratios are compared to the ratio measured from the oxalic acid. 1. The sample tested ratios are measured separately. The quoted uncalibrated dates have been given in radiocarbon years before 1950 years. BP. What is BP before present? And using the half life of 5568 years. I don't know what they just said, do you?
I don't have a fucking clue.
So it's a few thousand years old. So it says age years before present. 12,560. 60. If that's BP, if that's what they're saying by BP, that's 12,000 BC, not the younger Dryas. That's quite a bit before that, like 2000. Because the Younger Dryas is somewhere around 12,000 years ago. So that's 2000 years before that. Either way, if that fucking thing really is 12,000 years old, what is that?
What is that?
And how is. How are they. Who's making something? That's a beautiful sphere like that. That's three times harder than modern aluminum.
And 12,000 years ago with no, no tools, no nothing. Just. Yeah, I don't like it. I don't like that shit.
I like it a lot.
Yeah, I know. It's creeps me the fuck out. Just coming, I'm telling you.
Well, that's the thing. I think we erroneously assume that what we have is stable.
Oh, no. Yeah, this is gone.
I think they thought it was stable back then too when they were building the pyramids. Like, listen, we're always going to know who built the these. Real simple. Everyone's going to know. You can do it with your mind. Everyone's going to know how to move the blocks. It's simple. We don't even have to write it down.
Show them, Mike. Do the thing. Very good, very nice.
Some sort of sound machine that was rising. Yeah, like making. Raising these enormous stone blocks, spinning it.
He's like, stop.
Showing up down the mountain vibrating. Well, it's like moving in the air. Who knows what they did, but whatever they did, they got hit by a big rock. Rock from space. And there was a few savages left. And it took them about 5,000 years before they reinvented civilization. And that could happen to us, bro.
It's gonna.
And that might be the one thing that makes us want to get The AI rolling. That's the sphere. How cool is that?
It's pretty cool. It looks like a helmet almost. They're saying that these dots are the red resin, I suppose, Right?
Oh, okay.
And I guess I'm. I'm asking in my head, like, why would we assume that that's going to be carbon material if it's, you know, if the whole thing is a metal sphere, why would we need organic material in it?
Well, it's the only thing they could test. But the problem is if you take that thing and someone made it 100 years ago and you stick it in old dirt and then you test that 12,000 year old dirt, like Eureka. This ball is 12,000 years old. Step right up and pay to see it.
Still dirt.
Also, here's the thing. If you can make something that's three times the hardness of modern aircraft aluminum, couldn't you draw better half moon?
Yeah, I should be able to.
Why does that look so shitty?
A bad tattoo?
Yeah, it looks like. Yeah, like someone did it on the boardwalk in Atlantic City.
You gotta tell when you're a drugada.
You got some Chinese ladies letters and they believe peace and hope and it's bleeding out. Right. Like that looks shitty. It doesn't look good. Like if you saw something that was made today, like even the stuff that they made in Egypt, it was like way better.
I also feel like I've only seen this angle of this thing. Yeah. They're not showing like the other side of it.
That's true. Like, look at that thing in the left, the upper left, that little half moon, the tip of the half moon and the top one. Yeah, look how shitty that one is. Yeah, they did a bad job. Job. It's like when you're a kid and you get a coloring book and you.
Go outside the lines.
Loser.
You up. You up. It's not usable.
Yeah, that's weird, dude. Weird, weird. Look at the image, the close up of the circuit board.
Yeah, it's a true. It does look like a little microchip circuit board.
But that also makes me think like, now go yourself. Because now you're playing with me.
Yeah, they're just with us.
Why are you making like a modern, modern version of it? Why does it have that fake Mona Lisa in that thread?
I'm just looking at the comments. People are talking all sorts of.
That's that fake Mona Lisa.
Yeah. Talking all sorts of.
Do you know that one?
Yeah, this phony.
You gotta pee. You gotta pee right now.
I gotta piss like a race. I could tell you can see it in my eye.
I could tell when a man starts wiggling in his chair, he's got a piss. I could tell that feeling.
You're like, I drank three. Three cups of coffee and then missed like an idiot.
Oh, that's not good. Should we wrap it up?
Let's do it.
Let's do it. My man, you're special. White noise now. White noise on Hulu. I heard. It's hilarious.
Now you.
It says it. It says it. Dude, I'm just trying to help.
When we went to New York and. And Burr was like, do you see this? And I looked up and I was like, what is that hilarious?
He's like, they got.
This is the name they're doing for us. I was like, well, what are you gonna do? Whatever. Special's good. Go watch it.
What's good that they're doing it, though? Hulu's put out a lot of specials. They put out Birth special, your special. Did they do one with Gaffigan as well?
Gaffigan? Sebastian.
Sebastian. Nice.
Yeah, they got some really good ones.
Listen, the more the better.
Yeah, man.
Yeah. The more streaming specials, the more competition there is for, you know, it's better.
For all of us.
Better for comics.
Yeah, for sure.
And then maybe coming soon, the Jimmy Kimmel show to Hulu. It'll be hilarious.
Hilarious.
All right, my brother. I love you to death. How long you staying in town?
I'm going Kiltoni tonight.
Are you here tomorrow?
I gotta leave tomorrow.
Shut the fuck up.
I gotta go.
I got a show tomorrow. I know. I gotta go. Do you have to?
I do. All right, next time.
Bye, everybody.
Bye.
