that's crazy I think it's uh they've had cars before cuz they had the Tesla sports car which was also a uh battery controlled car but that was a tricky car because all the batteries were in the ass end of the car and is a really light car so it's like one of those old Porsches the old Porsches have the engine hanging out back and it changes the Dynamics of the handling like when you go around corners the ass end wants to pop around it's called over steer like some people like it it's kind of fun to drive like that but you have to get used to it and know what it's going to do if you're used to driving a regular car and you're used to like going sideways and like a Corvette or something like that and then you get in one of those things it's a very different sort of uh dynamic they look cool though You' seen those little PL little plastic things they look like little fun Matchbox cars they look like a little Lotus that's what they look like and uh apparently they're pretty fast too uh and all electric you know which cool in La you could actually really do it electrically because you could have solar that's charging your car I mean a lot of people have that now where they have just a solar charger to their car so their car is not hooked up to the Grid at all wow yeah pretty wicked has nothing to do with Ting though rogan.com go get your some [ __ ] it's uh an awesome cell phone service and we love them we're also brought to you by on it.com that's o n niit t if you have not been to onit then you obviously are not optimized [ __ ] what does that mean um what does it mean it means that's what Anna is about Ana is a human optimization website that's a nice way of saying we sell [ __ ] that makes your body work better whether it's strength and conditioning equipment whether it's supplements like hemp protein powder or uh Foods rather like hemp protein powder or supplements like new mood or shroom Tech sport or uh any of the products that we provide we sell things that we use that we think help you work better whether it's things like kettle bells or battle ropes or whether it's uh different kinds of uh supplements and healthy snacks we started selling U these new things called Warrior bars they're [ __ ] awesome they're made out

going back to the Cold War but um it's also just tons of oil tons of minerals can now be sort of you know mind yeah [ __ ] up the Environ the ice is we'll just [ __ ] it up even more so what's happening is everyone's a massing huge uh sort of caches of arms so uh you know the Russians obviously are getting up there everyone's planting flags on the seabed floors this is ours no this is ours so the scandies are trying to get in there Canada is trying to get in there both are being destroyed by the Russians and the Americans oh God Chinese are in there everybody's getting there with Subs you know are lots of Na Naval buildup but huge uh arms buildup going on there because that's going to be the next sort of uh not only the the sort of Transportation routs but also you know all the sort of natural minerals Rare Earth minerals oil etc etc so essentially it's just like when the bearing straight back during the Ice Age was connecting the United States to Asia and then it went away now new passages like that are opening up correct so the whole North Pole is melting so you can what's what happening now is you can actually you know what when a lot of the early explorers were trying to get to China by going around the north you know and now that's opening up so it's opening up north of of Scandinavia so that Russia can actually go right around Scandinavia because they never really had a freshwater year round port and so that's a big deal for them um but you know same thing for Canada same thing for the states China they're all trying to get up there and and and lay you know sort of right all the minerals and all the oil that's up there how does that work as well as the passage how does that work like who decides who owns that's so it's really what was it before was it international waters that was it was well yeah I mean people had laid claim to it but you couldn't know when he went there so who the hell cared you know what does it matter you you couldn't get through because it was all iced up so now what's happening is a massive land grab people are just planting their flags and saying No this is ours no this is not yours this is ours and they're just sort of fighting it out but basically up there might makes right so if I got my ships up there I got my guns up there I got my
Air Force up there guess what it's mine wow and it's so fascinating how over the last few years they've discovered all these massive massive supplies of oil up there huge reserves of oil shale oil and all weird oil that you have to [ __ ] what's the what's the kind in Utah that they found where you have to burn it and it creates all this horrible carbons being emitted into the environment in order to process it yeah there's all different I mean the worst oil that they have for the environment is in Canada is the tar sand yeah where they have to take all the freshwat boil up the sand to get out the oil boil up you know and get the oil out cost tons and tons of money and whatever but because oil is so expensive now that it's become you know economically feasible wow and that's the stuff that pollutes the environment pretty heavily well it all does but I mean tar Sans is shocking it's like really really bad I think that's what they were talking about Utah I'm not sure but they're they're trying to figure out a way to block it could be tar they found more oil in Utah ready for this than humans have ever used ever wow serious so there's no way you're going to keep those [ __ ] dirty criminals from pulling it out of the ground and [ __ ] up everything I mean that amount if it's tar I don't know about Utah specifically I know about Canada it's very very bad because they take the whole la lake Athabasca sort of uh um Watershed and they use the water to boil out the the the the the the oil and then you have all of this sort of chemical sand that they have to Chuck you have all the waters destroyed and then obviously you got the oil it's oil shale that's what they're saying Shale that's that is shale oil yeah that's you got to go well that's what you got to there's there's you got to go go down and there's fracking to get natural gas and there's fracking blowing up to get the shell well there's a lot of that [ __ ] out there apparently it's interesting that they're just finding this over the last you know decade or so they knew about it but it was too expensive it it wasn't it wasn't economically viable but now because it's $100 a barrel they're like [ __ ] blow the [ __ ] out of everything get a so they knew about it in Utah too they knew about all these
well they knew that you could get it like fracking isn't anything new you know uh oil sands tar Sands aren't anything new Shale oil isn't new it just oh you know we can we can it's now economically viable to actually get this [ __ ] out cuz it was too expensive before it's the same thing with using you know CO2 to and water to sort of you know Frack or to pump out the rest of the oil and Wells because we didn't get all the oil out before only what was pressurized there's a thing that comes up when you talk about anything that causes some sort of environmental hazard where you have two different types of people that automatically jump on the argument there's a type of people that are like oh my God we have to save owls and olive trees or whatever the [ __ ] is growing up there and then there's these other people these people that almost universally like are not financially successful but support hardcore Republican ideals including like the sacrificing of the environment for for some sort of an economic gain I don't understand it and I just did a piece on Greenland that's going to be airing on our HBO show tomorrow and I've been doing a lot of press around it's interesting because I did a piece on sea level rise last season and generally about 90% % of our comments are like you guys [ __ ] rock it's great and then there's you know 10% and like 80% of the comments all of a sudden on the environmental stuff were negative and I was like how's this even happening and there's a a like a a study was done that if the first four comments on an an environmental thing or any uh like news piece are negative then people negate the the the actual piece MH so they spend hundreds of millions of dollars for bloggers and people to just go out and do comments so that anything launches they sit there and they and they they they you know say that this is bad or not true whatever for me look here's the deal you know when I I I talk to scientists all the time for this uh um Green Line piece I talked to the chief climatologist at Nasa and I said okay so how how how much of of this is is manmade because I went to Greenland and it's melting and and in Greenland is going to melt and it's 24 ft of sea level rise so if the sea level rises 24 feet then 80% of the world's cities go
underwater so I said okay you know how much of this is man-made and he's he's he's a conservative scientist he's like a NASA guy he's not like some crazy tree hugging guy and he's like well 100% of it I said hold on what do you mean 100% natural no it's 100% like if you look at it and I actually when I was talking to him he's like if we cut our carbon emissions by 80% it's still going to continue for the next 500 years global warming but or at least but we just slow down the pace of it and I'm like well how long you know how much of Greenland's going to melt he goes well all of it it's just a question of how fast is it going to be 500 years is it going to be 50 years is it going to be you know 150 years and so I'm I I got actually kind of got mad at the scientists because I'm like he's he's saying this as if it's boring and I'm saying hold on this is a global scientific consensus yeah and then I'm like well people in America don't understand that I don't understand that and I do this for a living that you know because we did a thing on the Texas drought cuz we you know there was a drought here in California everybody's like global warming global warming and in Texas they've had a drought for three years and they deny climate change like Rick Perry said it's not true governor of the state and then you sit there and say okay well how is that possible so we went to talk to people and they're like yeah climate change has been denied I mean it's it's been disproven and and and that I find Insidious because they know it's not true the the fossil fuel companies know it's not true the car companies know it's not true the politicians know it's not true they know what the global uh consensus is the scientific consensus and yet they they they fund and and and say that it's not happening and that's bad because they're [ __ ] all of humanity and the future of humanity for for short-term profits and that's what's Insidious about climate change denial it's very Insidious and it's very fascinating to me this play on these people these non-nonsense type people there's a mentality that people adopt where they don't want to be fools right and it's the non-nonsense mentality and I I've I've documented this this is like something that I've really been studying
for quite a while there's people that in spite of all the evidence in front of them they want to believe the official story on almost everything and almost always take the conservative Viewpoint and a lot of times that conservative Viewpoint is who they are the very type of people who they are it's against them and yet they still support it a lot of them are hardworking Blue Collar people and they have this idea that somehow or another in the future they want to be able to make money freely so you know I don't want the government stepping in and stopping all this shell because I could step in and maybe do a little Shale mining myself and start making millions of dollars and right now they're not right now they're the ones who are being punished by a lot of these ideas that they're pushing forth themselves it's very strange but if you ever talk to and I agree with you and I always found it incredibly um confusing yeah and I we just this story on on vets returning uh from Afghanistan and Iraq and how they're overprescribed overmedicated oh yeah uh by the VA it's a huge problem well it's working folks who support big business well that's it and and and if you talk to the disillusioned veterans veterans of which I have tremendous respect for by the way but coming back from these wars that were fought for economic reasons for oil MH and and when they realize that they're like oh we were duped you know the you know we went over there to fight the good fight there's no there's no good fight there's no good fight we went over there to fight for oil and by the way there's never been a good fight right I mean look you could say World War II you know Nazis bad you know very bad people you know I would say that Iraq now is is pretty much a given there were no weapons of mass destruction he wasn't doing anything with Al-Qaeda it was a secular regime they were enemies we went into to get oil and I think you know if you look at Afghanistan now we just did a piece on Afghanistan and the Taliban are running uh uh South Afghanistan and the Northern Alliance are running Northern Afghanistan and the minute we pull out it's going to be the Taliban take over the South just like they did before and a trillion dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives are just
going to be wasted for nothing because Al-Qaeda is going to be in with the Taliban again which is why we went in there in the first place so anyway not that what I'm trying to get at is I think that a lot of the mentality you know people are used you know for economic purposes and that I find Insidious people should not be used for it is not just Insidious it's it's it's maddening because a lot of those people who really signed up to serve their country are real legit Heroes correct and they were used correct and if you go back and read Smedley Butler's war is just a racket from 1930 something he was a major Brigadier Major General character I forget what his exact title and rank was but he was a well-respected military man spelled his whole life in the service of the country and then realized when he was retiring that he only existed to go out there and make sure things were safe for Bankers clear the air for oil manufacturers whatever it was that he was really doing he thought he was over there you know promoting freedom and keeping America safe and he wrote this uh fascinating and very damning piece and this is in the 1930s so it's always been like that it's always in this double hustle that even the people involved in it don't realize they're a part of the hustle the very most important part the machine the hammer itself doesn't realize it's part of the hustle the very guys pulling the trigger well if they would if they realized that they wouldn't they wouldn't go fight it's so Insidious that you could figure out a way to get someone to do that and the way you get them to do that is actually get them to love their country actually get real heroes like wow you know you're you're preying off patriotism it's that thing too though man that I'm a good person and I'm a noons good person and that's the same [ __ ] that gets prayed upon with this whole global warming denial thing but I don't understand because whenever I talk to someone I'm like okay I'm a gambling guy you know you know even if it's a 1% chance so you're so sure it's 100% sure it's 100% it's a [ __ ] hoax right what if it's 1% what if it's 5% what if it's 10% don't you want to [ __ ] head your bet well and say because total global global economic or sorry environmental disaster and
breakdown versus okay we're all okay don't you want to hedge your bet wouldn't you want to hedge your B against a complete uh environmental disaster I would I'm a Gambling Man I'll bet 1% to to say okay it's like insurance when you play backr or or or when they've got a 21 okay I'll I'll you know I'll take that insurance because even if it's one% true I'm convinced it's 100% true but even if it's 1% true don't you want to hedge your bet I think it's a conf information bias issue that these ideas fit into their non-nonsense mentality the non-nonsense mentality is almost like a it's almost like a religion it's come on Oswald acted alone stop it it's the same guy like they're not even looking into it they just go with this non nonsense idea even in the face of all sorts of well it's interesting in Texas and and and and and because you have a loss of a whole way of life because all the cows are dying they've had a three-year drought they've either sold them off or they've died and so you sit there and say okay in the face of all your [ __ ] cattle which was Texas for the longest period of time you know dying because of this prolonged drought now you have people who were like incredible deniers and and people saying no no no no it's not true saying actually there might be something to this [ __ ] and I don't know what it is but we got to look into it and we can't just pray for [ __ ] rain anymore there's been Congress there was a republican Congressman that we talked to who said like I was just a a climate change Den I because Al Gore was for it therefore I was again it and then when I did the research I realized holy [ __ ] this is there's there's something to this and he got drummed out of the party and lost a seat wow and and look it's it's a it's big political business down there and it's an oil State it's an oil State now because there's no more cattle so they're all the water they have no water for the cattle they're using for fracking so you sit there and you say look you know it's it's it's it's it's gotten so bad now that even people who have been for so long are saying you know what [ __ ] okay what the [ __ ] are we going to do have you seen the photos of I think it's Lake Travis pull up the L Travis it's not it's not down to nothing there's like boats that were like
sitting on the shore in front of these people's million dollar Estates and now these things are in the middle of this field it's like there's grass growing up I mean it's not going back and by the way that's green Texas yeah West Texas is yeah you're right Saudi Arabia that's Austin yeah we're talking about Austin which is you know yeah about as uh rainy as get like look at that that's that's a kind photograph that's happening in California as well we were uh at Lake tone and Lake tone used to have some of the best bass fishing in Northern in Southern California it's a great spot they had this great lake there and it was just filled with large Mouse bass and it's a private um the whole um Ranch 270,000 acres is private so you couldn't just get in there to fish so they would let people come in and fish people the employees would fish like people would pay to fish there it's [ __ ] gone now it's gone almost all the fish are dead the water is like 6 in deep like you can walk across the entire Lake now have I have a question for you when that happens when Lakes are disappearing Lake Travis is disappearing all these places are disappearing and people still say [ __ ] you Joe it's [ __ ] natural occurrence of things this is [ __ ] there's no climate change [ __ ] you what do you say to them well the guy the last guy that I had a conversation with that told me that it was just a natural cycle he he's a guy from Jitsu and I I was like you know I said well there's always been natural cycles absolutely it's true you know there's the the climate on the earth is varied widely but it doesn't mean that human intervention what we've caused can't play a big part in accelerating that and accelerating it in an unmanageable way and he didn't really have an answer to that cuz he was a non non he was a non-nonsense guy he was just a young military kid who has this idea in his head that you know there's a lot of hippie [ __ ] being flown around there with about the environment well I think that's the problem you know Al Gore made a billion dollars telling everybody that he's the first green billionaire do you know that okay it doesn't mean he's totally wrong well the interesting thing about Al Gore and I I find it very interesting not that I I'm an Al Gore lover I uh I came up actually
hating uh tior because of she was censorship etc etc all the rap lyrics after exactly and uh but you got to look at Al Gore and say he wasn't uh like a Big Al liberal he was like a sort of he was you tobacco guy from the south like you know Centrist you know in in most countries in the world he'd be sort of center right conservative dude he came out of politics being an environmentalist now he didn't do that may I don't know may I don't know the guys very well but you know he came out freaking out about the environment why because all the [ __ ] that he learned in politics all the behind the seen [ __ ] that we don't know about freaked him out so much that he said I'm going to actually go out and do this movie and say the environment is [ __ ] hey by the way this isn't like a green piece dude this isn't hippie this is a tobacco Southern dude conservative dude middle no conservative in America but you know whatever conservative in the world and he comes out and says the environment's [ __ ] what's interesting is he wins Nobel Prize does a good movie all this stuff but then gets vilified to the point that now Al Gore is a joke and when we say oh you know [ __ ] you know he's this and it's Al Gore and by the way isn't that a great [ __ ] Triumph yeah for for deniers because they're like alore is now a joke for doing a movie that says hey by the way the environment's [ __ ] yeah isn't that weird that they can do that that they can turn someone into like he's almost like remember when Richard Gear you'd say Richard Gear you thought Geral up the ass right right that's all anybody thought well when you talk about Al Gore now especially around certain circles he's a joke when it comes to the climate was there anything that he said that was debunked or all [ __ ] no they just attack they kept attacking him attacking him attacking him attack and by the way it's a f it's fascinating because what there is is anyone says anything we don't like we attack their character and once we attack their character and they're on the defensive then we [ __ ] won because then it's not about what they said right it's about well [ __ ] this person we can't trust what he said because he likeed to finger up his ass on you know yeah absolutely and that is a fascinating thing they do with
comments on videos like especially your kind of documentaries that expose things and they attack and it's been proven now I mean those was part of the Snowden deal we actually got to see fact that they spend money on propaganda trying to influence they go to websites message boards they go to social chat they go on Twitter there's a lot of people that I've got another question for you why isn't there more [ __ ] outrage about the NSA listening to every [ __ ] phone call every tweet every [ __ ] email every every everything and saying we live in a goddamn police state we signed away well we never even signed it away but our our our rights and freedoms and I look I came to this country because it's land of the free home of the brave [ __ ] beautiful country I love it here gorgeous Place why isn't there more outrage at the NSA watching everything we do and doing it illegally I think there is outrage but I think people feel like they are waiting for something to happen and they don't know what they can do do about it they don't feel like they have any real legitimate power they can express their outrage they wait for the politicians to make some announcements and I mean what is the only thing that Obama said that they're going to try to slow it down somewhat or do something differently in some in some way what are you doing oh was just uh unblocking his face a lot of people were saying they want to see oh [ __ ] all those people you can't listen to those people how dare those people I didn't know we were on the TV yeah don't don't worry about all those people they complain too much they and they love it if you react to them oh Brian move the thing because of me I'm a ghost producer I also wanted to see his beautiful eyes oh I like looking at him hiding that's why I feel like it's a metor for his job sneaking around behind things reporting on the the reality of the situation um where were we what we were just talking about NSA being a horrible surprised that people don't freak out like they are they just don't know what to do they're in this holding pattern waiting for something to happen CU I got to tell you what like that's it's just bad and it's going getting worse and and and you know we
just did this interesting story in Camden New Jersey you know that highest crime rate no cops right yeah they ran out of money for cops so yeah so highest crime rate highest murder rate ran out of money for cops so what did they do they hired like a tech company to come in and they put cameras everywhere and hidden microphones and they can triangulate like gunshot sounds and they got like cameras everywhere and they know where everybody is so like oh yeah we know this guy we know where he's going he's probably going to commit a crime so we're going to pick him up it's like what's that Tom Cruz movie Minority Report Minority Report like they figure it out like everything before it's going to happen but but I'm like hold on as I'm watching it I'm like that's not even the scary part that's pretty scary but they have recorded and filmed everything that's going on in that [ __ ] town 24 hours a day they know everything that's going on there right and you're and it's been such a success it really just put it underground but whatever it's been a success cuz the crime rate dropped that Chicago New York all these big cities are doing it now so not only are you going to have the NSA listening to your phone calls and your [ __ ] you know whatever your social media everything but you're going to be filmed and listened to everywhere you go and if that that's not 1984 that makes 1984 look like a [ __ ] you know CH children's you know fairy tale yeah that's you're always going to be watched every [ __ ] thing that you ever do if that's not the definition of a police state I don't know what is no it's most certainly the definition of a police state and it's almost inevitable because of the expanding reach of Technology correct once they have the ability to send drones everywhere they want to they're going to have drones that are the size of bugs they're going to have HD capability you're a smart dude because I was just at this Tech conference uh and and we was all the CEOs in this thing and we were talking about it and I would got into a fight with one of these big dudes there an old dude big powerful guy and he said you know who who who wouldn't jail Snowden and I said me I wouldn't jail what's the difference between Snowden and Woodward and Bernstein Woodward and Bernstein uh
and the presidential papers like they were the punks of their generation like but now they're Heroes because it's the Baby Boomers and snowden's [ __ ] you what's good for the goose is good for the gander anyway we got into this fight what's he what's his argument you know I didn't he it was just he's bad and and has whatever the same argument oh he's weakened yeah he's weakened this country he's a traitor I'd kill myself if I was in front of him and so and so you know so we got into this fight but but uh you know the interesting thing about that is a the fact that a lot of people you know whistleblowing is is seen as UNAM I I see it as as that's what's going to keep democracy safe but this sort of overreaching and I said look you know I didn't come to America for it to be a to live in a police state and this is the definition of a police state is that they can watch everything that we do and that it was all these Tech Guys and The Tech Guys just sort of rolled their eyes and said it's already happened yeah the tech is already there the the government has already made the deals it's a de facto thing you can't change it and then then I got kind of worried cuz you're exactly right you're 100% right the tech is so pervasive that you can't [ __ ] with with it well there's also a future Tech that they're working on that is essentially tiny WiFi powered cameras that are the size of grains of sand sure and they're going to scatter them yeah they're to scatter them all throughout cities and they will literally have access to video audio everything from these grains of sand that'll be all over the beaches they tune into them they they like if you go to Camden it's already happened that's the whole scary thing is like this isn't like so it's a Battle Ground this isn't science it isn't science ition anymore they they can hear they can triangulate sound from any point in the city like inside houses like anywhere they can they can listen to try anything and you're just like holy [ __ ] like for those of us who get up to some nefarious activities that's not great news well even not so nefarious activities like people who like to [ __ ] public you know have you seen that video there's a video this this couple on St Patrick's Day they were banging behind a dumpster and uh
these people drove by and got video of it put the video online and now the cops are looking for these people like oh you GNA save us from the bad people that like to [ __ ] but that's the problem is okay so now we have information from about everybody at all time what are we going to do with that information you know that some bureaucrat Major General Captain some [ __ ] artist is going to be sitting Bes behind some computer thing saying you know what I think that's [ __ ] I'm going to [ __ ] take that guy away that's a police state that can't happen yeah it well it's going to unfortunately but that then then democracy goes out the [ __ ] window I think it goes out the window anyway I think it's got to shift it's going to shift but this is turning into a depressing no no it's not but here's the issue because what's going to happen is the same thing that has sort of happened with cellular I mean obviously I don't know what the [ __ ] I'm talking about just as a caveat here what's going to happen is a same thing that's happening with cellular communication at one point in time cellular communication was a giant brick that you had to hang on to so you used to have a [ __ ] suitcase you carried around with them and hold them and your and now you can go to the Amazon and people have cell phones you can go to the poorest third world countries and people have cell phones I think that right now the information the access to all this stuff the ability to know what's going on everywhere all the time is terrifying to us because we don't possess it the only people that possess it are the people like the NSA or the people that are monitoring Camden eventually that technology will become so pervasive it'll be like Wikipedia it'll be like everything else it'll be all the time and you will have no privacy but they will have no privacy either you know who's going to have privacy though I I don't believe that I believe the rich will have privacy because they'll be able to pay for Tech that can protect them they'll try new [ __ ] will come up you know you're going to know you're going to have a phone they're going to know where your phone is you're going to have an internet connection blocking technology I'm gonna take it to another place I think it's
gon to get even crazier than that because I think that when I extrapolate when I get when I get really high and I think about this especially when I get into the tank I come into this one conclusion and this one conclusion is that money in its current form is not resource-based the economy is essentially based on confidence and and numbers right sure well that's just information and at a certain point in time technology is going to hit there going to hit a bottleneck and that bottleneck is going to be money the bottleneck is that techn ol as it progresses the trend seems to be in a more immediate access to information and a easier connection between people well that's going to come to a point where there's one thing that's shielded one piece of information that's shielded and that's going to be money we're not going to know how to quantify what are your what are your thoughts on bitcoin well that I think that's a part of it I think that's just one part of it you know I think Bitcoin is being for sure tampered with for sure [ __ ] with I think all these people like this guy that had the mount goau and [ __ ] $300 million goes away and it's crashed that is a most likely a bunch of things I'm sure incompetence I'm sure shitty programming but probably sabotage let's be honest if they really thought that it's possible for a new currency to come along Antonopoulos is coming back on again too yeah he's coming back on soon in April um without a doubt someone would step in and try to do that why would they not try to do that were they're going to just sit by by and twiddle their thumbs and hope that their money's good enough to compete get the [ __ ] out of here these are criminals these are [ __ ] swashbucklers and Buccaneers they're [ __ ] they're digital Buccaneers and just like the same people send people out to diminish climate reports by leaving shitty comments they're going to also go after Bitcoin any way they can did you hear about this Silk Road [ __ ] that happened yes yes what did you do anything on that we're doing a film on it right now tell people for folks who don't know what Silk Road is tell them what it is and what happened well I'm not the biggest expert in we're doing a film on it and and so I only know the sort of pitch versions
what's a website it's a it's a it's a yeah it's a website it's a it's a it was a service that was the dark web that you know a lot of [ __ ] went down and basically where they made their money was it was a door-to-door drug dealing service where they made the majority of their cash and it was high quality they guaranteed the quality and and you could you you have to leave your house and someone would come and and they would take a sort of charge on both sides and they would like deliver Coke and guns to your house correct anything anything it was like dark web sort of uh Craigslist murder even well so that this is where it gets interesting is the guy who started he started when he like 21 years old he's like this nice kid whatever apparently a real nice kid this is they they they talked to his parents and [ __ ] they're like oh he was nice ni kid now he's living in the North Pole with your [ __ ] reporters hiding under a GL well now he's now he's 20 stories down in he's dead in the CIA building no they got him they got him oh oh you not hear the story this is my favorite part of the story so any he's a young kid right he sets up Silk Road which is basically a sort of peer-to-peer whatever the [ __ ] you want to have happen on the on the on the second economy a lot of drugs basically drugs but yes there was arms anything sort of illegal was going on was going through this thing now what happened was was it was I you know very C cin graphic cinemagraphic moment he's in a public library right using the public Wi-Fi he's running the whole thing from his laptop and they know if he if he closes the laptop it'll be encrypted and then it's a brick and he's [ __ ] so the whole everyone in the library the person looking at the books The Librarian the you know the freaky dude sleeping in the corn they're all [ __ ] FBI right and they're all watching this kid he's like you know young guy as he's running this Silk Road thing and they had to get him before he closed his laptop so he literally stood up to like grab something and they just the whole Library went into motion and they got him now what they found out was he was just a guy trying to run a business he's like okay you know you bring the drugs
here and you bring the drugs there and if people people started [ __ ] with the business much like Bitcoin and [ __ ] they started trying to [ __ ] with it and you know by the way you deal with a lot of criminals they're going to do some criminal [ __ ] they're going to try to to put it over on you now one of the things that silkroad did was it was like a Craigslist for like Hitman and [ __ ] so he was like okay you're on my my Silk Road I'm going to you know this guy's bad for Sil Road he's dealing shitty heroin or he's being bad or he's saying some [ __ ] so he just would have them killed allegedly allegedly would have them killed because he was trying to maintain the sort of quality of his product so there was assassinations Hitmen arms dealing drug dealing all on this sort of dark web [ __ ] that was going on then they caught the the the the is there an earthquake huh is there an earthquake what are you doing is that like an effect I was going to switch cameras but then there was oh just I'm like what the f is this an effect is this a new artistic angle what I find interesting about this is it's just an example of this whole second economy the gray economy the black economy Black Market that some people have estimated is up to a quarter to a half of what the global economy is because if you put in all the drugs that are dealt in the world all the arms that are dealt in the world right all the secondary quote unquote gray Electronics the the seconds the the the the the the stolen uh IP that's coming out of China all of that stuff because if you go to India everything is a 20 $20 pirated smartphone right the like hundreds of millions of these [ __ ] things are being sold all of this gray econom is being run somehow and there's Bitcoin and there's Silk Road and there's all these different crazy [ __ ] things that are out there running this [ __ ] and that's why I was I was talking I agree with you I agree with what you're saying because all money is now is just data it's just it's it's it's this bank has this many credits and that bank has that and we swap them up and then it's not based on the gold standard it's not based on anything and so you know Bitcoin or virtual currencies are interesting but you know they can be hacked as as as as we just saw in uh in
Japan but also you know what can you what can you actually buy and sell with them because what they're doing is they're actually using the old drug dealers or SL terrorists um system which is okay I've got some corn in Tunisia and you've got some flaks in Pakistan and those will just be wiped out and somebody then in Afghanistan will get a case of AK-47s and that's what Bitcoin and that's what silk wrote and that's what a lot of these things ended up doing and didn't one guy wind up going to jail because he gave Bitcoin or he he he sold Bitcoins to someone who wound up using those Bitcoins to buy drugs see this is the deal and that that's a very good point because she didn't even buy the drugs because after 911 what happened was the government said and by the way they pretty much know everything that's go so they went into mutual funds they went into Switzerland they I have a house in Costa Rica and there was this Development Fund in Costa Rica was uh you know a lot of foreigners go down there and and retire there and they were investing in the in the in the in the country but because one guy in the fund had ties to a drug cartel everybody they just took all the money it was like $2 and a half billion dollars they just took oh well it's a drug laundering fund so we're going to take all the money so all these Gringos lost all their retirement funds whoa and by the way what's interesting about that who took that money the American government sure after 911 and by the way they took trillions of dollars doing this that the but it's not on the books it's not on the books because they just took it in so what do they do with it well there you go what they're allowed to do with it whatever they wanted to right after they went around everywhere and they used the world sympathy to say okay now we're going to now we're going to take this money we know it's drug laundering we know this is this we know this is this we know this is this we're going to take it all and they just took it all wow and they how hilarious is that they use terrorism they use mass murder as a pretense of stealing drug dealers money and every body else is around like if I invested in this thing and then some dude I never even met invested who one time dealt drugs or
then they take get to take my money too do you know what that there's a quote about capitalizing on uh any sort of a moment that it's negative moment well any any negative moment that it becomes even more negative if you don't capitalize on it like that's the idea behind almost every government they don't look at negative moments any any sort of a mass casualty event they don't look at it as just a tragedy they also look at it as an opportunity to use that tragedy to further whatever ideas they have real politic Zero Sum game politics there is a winner and there is a loser and I'm going to be the winner yeah I think what we're dealing with right now is the adolescence of the emergence of instant technology the emergence of instant information and right now it's only a few people that have their greasy paws on this kind of [ __ ] and when Edward Snowden comes out with all this data when Wikileaks comes out with this data and then everybody's like wait what this is what i' I've been calling this generation the wait what generation because I feel like that's what's going on I feel like a lot of us are in the middle of going wait wait what what I like what I like about it is that it's proof you sit there and you say oh it's not true here it is here's the NSA here's the FBI here's the CIA these are the files this is what it says here's the proof mhm yeah and it is I mean people used to call Alex Jones a [ __ ] complete crazy person and it's weird when a ranting lunatic is Right 90% of the time that's scary you know I mean that's when it gets scary he's right about so much [ __ ] I mean so much of what he called in the 9s by the way when I met him I met him in '98 and he was calling all this [ __ ] he was saying they're going to be monitoring your emails like [ __ ] are they going to get from my email you know where I'm going to go to do comedy what are you going to get 100% true yeah I mean what we're dealing with right now is a few people that have this power and I think it's going to come down to a point in time where as this technology increases have you just looked at it don't look it in the context of culture don't look in the context of what we're accustomed to as far as our you know expectations of privacy but instead look at it as is it's a wave that's moving in a certain
direction well where's it going what's it what's it doing it's moving in in a direction what's the direction well the direction is information being passed freely what's money information what's going to happen it's going to hit a roadblock and the roadblock is people want to keep a hold their money they want to control the money there's going to be no control over the money the whole thing is about access the whole thing is about access to this information and as this whole thing grows and expands it becomes more powerful and more prevalent and more pervasive it's going to reach a bottleneck and I think that bottleneck is money I really do so I've got another question REM money mhm 2008 right recession what what what sparks out of that is riots in Europe Arab Spring all across the Middle East riots in Southeast Asia riots in South America riots around the world by Gen Y because they completely disenfranchise no future you take someone's future away what they're going to do they're going to smash [ __ ] up why wouldn't they that's what revolution has been historically okay so now you know China's [ __ ] they're slowing down and they're in real trouble India's rupee is collapsing uh you know we're we're we're it's it's a it's not a question of of if it's a question of when what happens when you have another economic downturn and the people who have been sort of treading water and just are starting to see some light go down again what happens then on an economic level when you have these young people who have been [ __ ] for the past eight years say okay [ __ ] I'm going to have to tight my belt for another eight I don't know what the economy is I don't understand it you know when when you talk about one house being worth $5 million in one house being worth in Detroit $500 and this is a valuable place to live and this is an and this guy gets paid $100,000 for the same job that this woman gets paid $30,000 for and they both work the same amount of hours at a certain point in time it's like what is our economy I mean it's a construct well what what are we selling what are we buying and where where is it all coming
from it's coner we made it up right what's it but here's the question if it worked in 2006 okay if in 2006 if everything was Rosy and people were buying houses and everything was great you'd buy a house you'd sell it a year later you make 50 Grand what what is that what what's different now what's different now someone well you know you talk to people that are economic experts and they give you some sort of an explanation of how people extracted money from the system how the banks we banked on the fact that the loans they were giving their and then somehow they made money what does that mean what does it mean like where the same people are working there's the same amount of stuff there's the same amount of cars there's the same amount of buildings there's the same roughly the same amount of furniture what the [ __ ] is going on that all of a sudden everything's terrible and no one could get a job but I I love I mean I'm obviously being very what I love about it is uh recently uh somebody came up it's a very good idea by the way to try to explain economic disparity and there was a time when the aristocrats who were you know bited by God and they owned everything and everybody else worked for them that's how it worked they they could [ __ ] the the firstborn daughters before they got married they could do whatever they want they were the law they collected the taxes it was a mafia system it was we collect the tax here and pay to the king over there what's interesting is they just did a thing on uh there's more economic disparity today than during the Downtown Abbey era of the aristocracy owned everything and everybody else was like you know screwed which is when the the you know Soviet Revolution started and the big socialist wave around the world because the aristocrats owned everything and there's more economic disparity today than there was then is it because the people the like the people people that know how to [ __ ] with money the 1% they just have accumulated insane impossible to imagine wealth the aristocrats were given right the god-given right we own the land cuz at the time it was horizontal production is I have to make more carrots you know and so the only way of getting more carrots was to have more land so I took over your land that's why there was constant
Warfare then it went to Vertical production which is technology so now whoever owns the sort of technological means can sort of you know write their own ticket so you're exact right so the 1% now know how to game the system you know better than than than than most well here to put it into perspective perspective what we were talking about earlier when I was saying that I don't understand the economy I mean I understand competition I understand if one person is better at their job they should make more than another person who's better at their job but when you look at big money big crazy money where's it coming from a lot of times who's who's who's capitalizing on it the people that work with big money Bankers like what are they doing exactly they're not digging holes I mean what the [ __ ] are they doing where they have a trillion dollars or whatever the [ __ ] you know a Leman Brothers guy has who has one of those giant 100 Acre Estates on the Hampton who are they and what do they where they make their money and this is very inter again I'm going to put it into gambling terms because I'm a gambler if you could go to Vegas right and you could say okay I'm going to bet a billion dollars or a trillion dollars but let's say billion let's say a million dollar so we can all I'm going to put a million dollars on black well I lost okay I'm going to write that off so I didn't really lose I'm going to put a billion dollars on black I lost again okay I'm going to write that off I put a billion doll oh I won I get to keep that money yeah I'd play that every day I would play that game every [ __ ] day of the goddamn week but guess what they don't let you do that game in Vegas but they let you do that game on Wall Street oh it's unbelievable it's it's so hard to wrap your head around when you really try to think about the amount of money being exchanged and then the fact that's mindboggling minding the fact that this argument was thrown about that they're too big to fail and then you know the government comes in and bails them out instead of taxpayers the government the government doesn't have any money well they steal it from the taxpayers the government gets its money from taxpayers and that's what you know I just did this thing uh on on on on Afghanistan but
that's the tip of the iceberg is how much money the government throws away and by the way I pay a [ __ ] pile of [ __ ] tax so when I see that I'm like oh well my tax just went down the [ __ ] to throw away in what way what do you mean well so for example the piece I did in Afghanistan is we've spent hundred billion uh in reconstruction there and the M majority of it if not all of it has just been flushed down the toilet for example a billion dollars are spent on helicopters that don't fly you know billions of dollars are spent uh on on on on on um um Culver denial system it's a long story but basically to try to stop IEDs from being put into Culver they were never built we're paying money directly into the Taliban hands we build uh uh power plants that are never used because they're inefficient and too expensive because they use Diesel and you know diesel can't you can't power power plants with diesel and by the way guess who collects the uh the fees are the Taliban because the places where we go into to collect the fees we are too dangerous to actually go into so we're just throwing hundreds of billions of dollars down the top that's just Afghanistan not to mention Iraq not to mention by the way DOD not to mention here in America etc etc so you sit there and you say we're paying all this money and tax taxes are going up up up up up up and and where the [ __ ] is the money going the money's going into the [ __ ] toilet many cases and and you sit there and you say that's not [ __ ] good man not good and it's it's a sort of a symptom of what happens when money's there when money's there and it's legal to extract it all of a sudden a bunch of people start going well you know well I think I think unless we question it's our money see this is the whole basis of democracy it's our government and it's our money and what's happening now is the government is acting with impunity with no and like you said I'm like what about climate change what about war what about all this [ __ ] and you're like well people feel disenfranchised they can't do anything about it a b it's their money that people are spend spending and and and and we're going well [ __ ] they shouldn't be spending $78,000 hammers that's not [ __ ] cool well the basis
of democracy is you don't do that the basis of democracy is you can't do that but what's happening now and this is what I find another problem in our Modern Age is okay this is a [ __ ] huge problem yet we can't we we feel we can't do anything about it and and I've said this before and now I'm into my drink so I'm going to say it again again is that's why these podcasts are important that's why media is important that's why journalism is important look you started out in a different way you came at this from a different way I came at this from a different way the reason why we're doing this now is because we're frustrated and we're saying look I don't want to talk about you know shoes [ __ ] every day of the week you don't want to just do stand up or or or your MMA ship both of which are amazing but you want to do something holy [ __ ] dudes I'm going to [ __ ] talk about [ __ ] because this [ __ ] is important the reason why we have to do that is because we can't be complacent we can't just sit there and say you know what [ __ ] it's too much money or there too much because they are taking money to do bad things with it they are taking our [ __ ] freedoms and and and spying on us with the NSA and it's guys like you and guys like me and guys like by the way everybody out there and the [ __ ] death squad and red band and all these [ __ ] and we have to be the ones to get out there on a Grassroots move and say [ __ ] you stop [ __ ] tapping my phone stop taking my money to [ __ ] throw down into the taliban's hands in Afghanistan stop this [ __ ] because unless we do then there's going to be no more Democracy in America I think you're certainly right in some ways and I think also what's going on is this idea of Us Versus Them is completely ridiculous and I think people that are in positions of Power are going to be forced to realize this you are us yeah all of you people that are congressmen all you people that are senators all you people that are Mayors all you people that are cops you are us there is no Us and Them correct especially when you're dealing with those sort of positions the positions of political power positions of authority that you are us you're not even profiting off of this you if you want to put yourself into a position where you sell your soul to profit off it then
you're not us but for right now anybody jockeying into any any sort of a political position understand that it doesn't have to be this way understand that you are us and that you are people who have wives and Children and Family and jobs and dogs the end of we're all human and I believe that we can somehow or another construct an economy that's based on ethics and morals I really do I don't think there's anything that says that everybody has to be greedy I don't think there's anything that says that people have to capitalize in every single [ __ ] loophole and [ __ ] everybody over along the way and I think one of the reasons why they've been a wait allowed to do this or able to do this for so long is because of the lack of access to information I think they were able to secret secretly hide so much shitty wrongdoing in the past and that it became policy it became habit it became what you were taught when you were young when you joined a company hey this is how we do it you know you want to [ __ ] play golf with us and drive a Ferrari all right I'm in and next thing you know you're compromised just sort of like Leonard DiCaprio's character was compromised in The Wolf of Wall Street I don't know if that's how it actually happened in real life right but he started in with good ideas and it was invested into a completely corrupt system and then became a part of it and became a part of the corruption that is essentially most likely what happens at every form of government essentially there's good people that eventually join this thing and then realize oh this is a completely compromised movement there's no way to fix it I'll just be one of those guys and I'll drink every night and take Xanax I think it's going to has to stop I think it has to you I agree but I also think it's going to stop because you're not going to be able to just write it off it's not it's going to be everyone the same reason why you can spy on people in Camden New Jersey that is the echo of a a a future event that's going to happen that's going to remove all privacy and it is inevitable but I'm going to say on a personal level you've done well I've done well we're two guys sort of sitting at the the nice end of the spectrum saying hey it's got to [ __ ] change if you and I are saying it's got to change and we're at the
winning end of the [ __ ] scratching win then guess what [ __ ] is [ __ ] up well there's no I agree that you and I we're both comfortable we don't have to worry about feeding ourselves or housing our families but what happens at a certain point in time when you you make enough money that you don't have to worry about your bills you at least I start contemplating what is important corre what is important corre what's important this is so corny but what's important is love what's important is friendship what's important is you know it's nice to walk down the street and say hi to your neighbor if your neighbor's happy if your neighbor is being held at [ __ ] gunpoint and they're dragging him in the house it's not so fun to say hi to your neighbor corre oh Hi Neighbor you have a gun to your head oh sorry I'm over here what did you do wrong yeah I'm over here you know sorry I'm having a great time I'm going to go watch TV I didn't do anything wrong the game's about to be on it's only fun if everybody's having fun that's what community is all about it's one of reasons why human beings evolved into the point where we're at right now to the point where we have cities and and cultures and I mean we we had to make it at least safe enough that everybody could Cod we grew up in a in a village mentality we all grew up in villages and everybody hung out together went to the pub together and did all this [ __ ] together that's how we operated our best exactly and then we sort of separated into this sort of suburban thing but now it's like you're exactly right it's this community we're part of this community what I find interesting and every time I do this podcast I always Blown Away by it is there's so many people out there that think exactly the same way and we all sort of believe the same things and think the same things and we're all interested in the same things or pissed off about the same things yet like that's millions and millions of literally millions of [ __ ] people and yet it's there's this sort of frustration as to what the [ __ ] you do with that yes like what what does that there's never been anything to do before you had to wait for representatives to do you justice you had to vote for people that were going to disappoint you
you had to get yourself uh to the polls and hope that all your bitching and moaning at work and all your you know reading the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times somehow and another made a difference and most of the time it didn't because there was there was walls there was walls set up what's the wall though that's not there anymore the wall is the distribution of information same thing we're talking about with money podcast is essentially just a distribution of information div that's never been available before Vice is a distribution of information device that's never been available before there was never some crazy [ __ ] from Canada that were going to the Congo looking for dinosaurs and talking to cannibals in Liberia that [ __ ] never happened man the most radical [ __ ] you had was John stasel asking a pro wrestler whether or not it was real and getting smacked in the head oh my God he hit him in the head that was like radical journalism you know on television on Main stream television just a few decades ago I mean there that was a hard-hitting journalist you know there there wasn't anybody you know we're going to go to Waco and watch from the background as the government takes Sherman tanks and rolls over houses but what's really going on there no one's going in no one's [ __ ] playing guitar with David Kesh and finding out what the [ __ ] is actually happening you guys would David Cho would be sitting right next to David Kash as they burnt that [ __ ] building down you know he'd be wearing as best those underwear jumping off the [ __ ] roof with a camera you know running to you and you would upload it online true true true it's a different world this this a guy like you is not supposed to be in the position that you're in you're right it's true a guy like me is not supposed to be in a position I'm in correct I'm easily marginalized I marginalize myself at every point in time I can I want everybody to know that I'm I'm a [ __ ] Schmo the fact you have a huge Grassroots uprising at your back pushing you is [ __ ] amazing which is why I love coming here well they just know that I'm a lightning rod that's all it is it's I'm a I'm exactly like don't give a [ __ ] you don't give a [ __ ] to say what you want to say you don't give a [ __ ] I've been hit in the head too many
times dude there's something wrong with me I've got issues for sure I'm I'm impulsive I don't make smart choices come on what I love about you is you don't give a [ __ ] you're going to tell the truth you're going to say whatever it is I wish that I could back you up on this but the problem is I can't remember a time where I ever gave a [ __ ] I don't really think it was a conscious decision that's good lack of raising I was never raised I was raised by wolves I was thrown to the wild I think really that's what it is I never developed a sense of Decor I never developed a real sense of how you're supposed to behave and act my parents are always [ __ ] busy and the people I hung out with were derel and then Fighters it was all just chaos like from the time I was a young boy was never anything that made any sense to me so I never figured out how to integrate I was never integrated into any system so it's almost like I was designed for this like there was like like there's only one way to make someone who actually has money who's so stupid they'll say anything what's ironic about that is that you integrate so well cuz you're funny and people like you cuz you're funny you know more about MMA than anyone I've ever met in my life which is the fastest growing sport in the world you're like the most politically astute dude around there you know more about you know more about more [ __ ] than anyone I've ever met so you're saying I don't fit in you probably fit in better than anyone I've ever seen well there's the system that's broken it's not correct what what I have been very fortunate is that I grew up like this in a time where you could access enormous amounts of information and during the last 20 years because of this access to enormous amount of information enormous amounts my change my perspective on the world has changed radically my view has broadened an insane way that's impossible to descri but I think that I represent one I just I represent one portal that almost everyone who's a part of the system whether they grew up in a way where they were forced to sort of integrate and they they they did things that I didn't do because they had a better upbringing what whatever it was they also see it but my position my job is the lightning rod I'm I'm the I'm the
guy who's got a door open I'm like come on let's go the [ __ ] I found a door I mean that's all it is it's just and what you guys are doing is way crazy than what I'm doing what I'm doing is talking about what you guys are doing you're you're off going to [ __ ] North Korea and having lunch with these [ __ ] Psychopaths and you know you're going to visit slave camps where they they they uh they think they're in North Korea but they're actually in Russia was that where they are yeah Russia yeah they think they're in North Korea but they're actually in Russia yeah they're in slave concentration camps in North Korea but they're actually in Russia doing slave labor yeah see you're going to all these places like the North Pole well you're not going to see me there but I'll I'm the lightning rod I'll stay right here all right keep the lights on anytime you want to come by we'll [ __ ] we'll hit the switch and we'll broadcast wow I love coming has Vice done anything about the Cove or anything about the Dolphins uh situation up in Japan or Japan I noticed your hat there yeah uh we had have actually and and and uh we're doing a lot more on not just the Cove which is a tiny problem it's actually a global problem in the fact that we we've overfished everything so there's no more fish left and so now what we're doing is just you know completely the only the only fishermen left are the sort of you know the bad ones who are like pering and taking the whole almost like Pirates exactly they take the whole uh um tuna pod and they they they put a thing around they they they move the whole pod in one go and the Dolphins and everything that that hunt the tuna and sharks everything they all get killed they just would kill the [ __ ] out of everything like we're really good at killing the well the Japanese are ruthless when it comes to that [ __ ] quite frankly we're all ruthless we're all ruthless with we all ruthless the unit States Dolphins every single nation that fishes so I'm from Canada originally and there there was a time when the ships the joke was the the ships couldn't get through the Grand Banks uh off the off New Brunswick because the there was so many fish there's no fish left anymore and by
the way you're you're people who deny everything what I say they're like the seals ate all the [ __ ] yeah [ __ ] seal so we should have the seal H it wasn't the Portuguese the Japanese the Canadians the Americans who [ __ ] pened it for [ __ ] 50 years and ate all the the goddamn fish and threw everything else out no it wasn't that it was the [ __ ] seals anyway we have destroyed the the fish talks there's no more [ __ ] fish we've we're like they like now everything has to be farmed etc etc etc there's no more fish in the grand Banks there was the biggest fish stocks in the [ __ ] world why because we we used to fish you know we used to fish a certain way then we just said [ __ ] take all the fish take everything take it just scoop the [ __ ] whole [ __ ] side of the ocean and we'll just Tak is it because of just a need people need more fish there's more people that need if you go to any store this is an interesting thing that I you go to any store in the world any store you can be in Congo you can be in Australia you can be in Vietnam myamar you can be here in America you know what they're going to have on the on the on the Shelf of any shitty Bodega in the [ __ ] world tuna canned tuna fish so it's like a staple and when you realize the the steaks that we're talking now like I was doing this uh piece on on fake food in China they have fake eggs right yeah what is that and I'm like you have fake eggs so they're making a a a fake soy construct for the shell and a fake chemical thing for the thing and the yolk I'm like how much does a [ __ ] egg cost like an egg is free you get a chicken [ __ ] eggs come out how much does it take to make a chemical egg you know it must cost a lot more than the actual egg itself it doesn't make any sense there's no eggs in China you know there's there's no milk in China so they're just buying all the dairies in France it was a big article today they need food so they're making fake food wow but you sit there and you say Okay tuna it's on every every single country in the world has tuna well there's no more tuna we ate it all CU Everybody Eats tuna when you start saying that everybody has to have that one thing CU you're like all these the biggest corporations in the world what do they
sell light bulbs tampons you know toothbrushes [ __ ] that everybody needs I every single person in the world needs a [ __ ] toothbrush or light bulb so they make billions of dollars tuna right there's no more tuna so what the [ __ ] do they do they say well just take everything take the kids take the eggs take the [ __ ] you know the adults take the the breeding females take everybody chop it up put it in a [ __ ] tuna can wow and that's the problem is food we we and by the way this is happening now with beef I know you're into grass-fed beef beef now is a huge problem price is you know skyrocketing why because now everybody wants beef there's people have bit more bucks whatever and so now beef prices are going through the roof they're also getting sneaky with their grass-fed 100% 100% what they're calling grass-fed you could go to Whole Foods they have this new thing that they're doing what they call it pasture raised have you seen that look beef is [ __ ] fish is [ __ ] protein in general is [ __ ] because it's expensive it's expensive to [ __ ] rear and and and and and make happen but fish by the way is the scariest because we've overfished to the point where there are like unless it's farmed we're [ __ ] and it doesn't seem like there's any light at the end of the tunnel either well this is the thing and I keep saying this when I come on this show is where are all the adults like okay isn't it like if there's if the option is we can stop eating so much fish for a little bit and then have fish forever or we can just keep on eating all the [ __ ] fish and then never have fish forever ever again wouldn't it be the same decision to say let's eat a little bit less fish so we can all have fish forever no we're actually doing the opposite and saying well no one actually has the the CU if we don't do it then the Japanese will do it and if the Japanese are doing it then we have to do it so we're all going to just eat all the fish well you don't hear about that story because it's important to talk about Miley Cyrus twerking it's very important we don't have time for your to tuna nonsense when young Miley she was Hannah Montana and now she's twerking yeah it's disturbing that you don't hear more of it and I think that's an issue with most people that follow
the mainstream media most people that work at 9 to-5 plus you know commuting time they simply do not have time to spend a lot of it's very hard hard life is hard yeah and you don't want to come home and have a couple of old [ __ ] like us guess what all the fish is gone you [ __ ] dirty bastard stop eating your [ __ ] tuna fist sandwich you don't want to be on the [ __ ] Subway listening to this it's hard yeah it's difficult but the problem is is the bill is not only in the mail it's been [ __ ] delivered we did we did a lot of bad things for a long time and now the bill has been delivered and we're sitting here going there's no more fish boys sorry like and by the way guess what we're not going to wake up this is the sad thing about humans we you're not going to wake up until you walk into the Quickie Mart or the 7el or whatever the [ __ ] it is and there's no more Tuna on the shell you go what happened to the [ __ ] tuna yeah we ate it all yeah that's a weird thing about us isn't it that we we we have that issue we we don't recognize things until it's like that's like they say about addicts that addicts have to hit rock [ __ ] bottom before they'll stop doing drugs like they have to have overdoses where they're almost dead change addicts with humans yeah well it's well that's what I'm saying I think it's it's it's a similar thing that we do when we get into patterns like guys who are gambling antics you ever met a gambling anct me well you know you're fine listen you're fine d i no he's fine too but you're talking about two wealthy guys the scary gambling addicts are the guys who are broke who have to [ __ ] bet I knew this guy his name was White Plains Charlie White Plains Charlie White Plains Charlie might have weighed 50 pounds he used to hang out at the pool hall that I used to go to and he was a real good pool player he's an old man who was a gambling junk he used to steal candy bars in the pool see him [ __ ] sneaky I mean he just needed some form of nutrition all white planes Charlie would do all day was gamble in one way or another he lived in a boarding house he like had a room somewhere or a bed or somewhere and he was probably when I met him probably deep in his 60s white ples Charlie used
to go to the [ __ ] horse races every day and he would come to the pool hall after he went to the horse races and like this [ __ ] I bet this horse this [ __ ] I'm like come on you [ __ ] always same story always losing and if he did have some money you could tell cuz he was all squirrly and he could see him and everybody knew and then he would wind up gambling and losing that money but these poor [ __ ] man they they could never just get a job get their [ __ ] together they were addicted to these weird Thrills and they would hit rock bottom and just scrape together enough money and then they decided somewhere along the line Charlie decided to just live at Rock Bottom like Rock Bottom was where he was he always M he would take cigarettes out of ashtrays and light them up again and you know he's essentially not homeless but might have well been homeless was always broke Always buming Money always asking someone to stake them this [ __ ] can't beat me I'mma play this [ __ ] I'm going to rob him you're going to we're going to make a lot of money come on man come on man back me back me up on this it was and he was just addicted to it and he would crash and just keep going and there's a lot of people like that when it comes to anything and I think that's a human characterist this denial and this this ability to rationalize the position that you're in and I think as a species we do that well I forget I'm going to misquote this I'm going to butcher it but there's a definition of insanity which is we go to bed every night with the same thing facing us and the same conditions facing us the next day and we wake up thinking it's going to be different yeah that's the the the simplified version is the definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing and expecting a different result correct which is basically the definition of humanity and the definition of History what's also one of the reasons why we're such bad [ __ ] that we're able to like put things aside and trudge ahead it's also the the definition of of religion because they're like yeah it's shitty again today MH but guess what when you're dead it's going to be awesome Jesus will be there poor you had another you had another bad day it
sucked again and you worked real hard but when you're dead it's going to be all can you imagine Fred Phelps is dead you know that the westbo Baptist Church guy he died imagine the day if Jesus is real the day that that guy meets Jesus and Jesus is like that's not what I meant right like oh my God you know what I love you know what I love about it is like I go I travel a lot to hardcore Islamic countries and they're like yeah you know you're going to Jihad and and suicide bombers and you're going to go to paradise you're going to have virgins and and you're like yeah it's [ __ ] crazy and you come back to America and they're like those [ __ ] Taliban and Al-Qaeda they're crazy [ __ ] they believe they're going to [ __ ] die in Jihad and go to heaven what do you guys believe well we believe Jewish zombies that walk on water I believe that I'm going to work every day and have a bad life every every day of my life and then I'm going to [ __ ] die and go to heaven yeah well we don't believe in virgins so it's less ridic it's l their problem is I don't get 70 virgins but I live on a cloud and eat Vita cheese our [ __ ] is more reasonable and updated their [ __ ] is very ancient like they're dealing with an they I believe that what's going on in the Middle East is that the Middle East I've said this before is the cradle of civilization that's where Mesopotamia was Babylon that's where Sumer was everywhere I think turkey that mean the oldest known civilization that's built complex structures is in gockley in Turkey this new thing they found over the last decade incredible structures the people that are still there I think are the townies of the world that's what I think it's like it's like when you go back to where you grew up and all those [ __ ] that stay they're just so backwards and outdated I go to where I grew up and I I see my friends still in the same town like [ __ ] man like you guys got to get out of here hey these [ __ ] [ __ ] want to get [ __ ] married and pay taxes they got it you're a town where you grw up Newton Newton master Metts Newton Upper Falls um and that's actually a great place to live I'm just talking [ __ ] um but what what I'm talking about is that there are certain people that live in an area and that area has an
ideology that's very rigid and they never get out of it the this because they their ideology was created 15,000 years ago they have the Echoes of that [ __ ] civilization thought the world was flat they worship goats the interesting thing about Islam though is it was created much as you say as a uh it was basically a and then by the way watch a Jihad be uh announc or fatwa on me it was created because Muhammad went to Judea and said oh this there's this new Christian thing going on so there was this monotheistic thing saying oh there's this new one God religion I'm going to take that on so Judaism actually in the Quran it says the people of the book there's the Jews and the Christians and the Muslims and they're all the same because they're monotheistic and you say oh okay well that's that's interesting people of the book you know we're all in it together why the [ __ ] have you been uh you know fighting us you know the whole time well we have different versions of Heaven well how about the Islamic people themselves have two different sects of Islam that battle each other to the death which is one thing lot more than two but yeah two big ones the big one in Iraq the Sunni and Shia that we didn't know about in Iraq when when people started blowing each other up in Iraq and we found out that it was Islam people attacking rival Islamic sex we were like wait a minute how crazy are these [ __ ] people this is a civil war amongst Christians what exactly what I was trying to get to is Judaism Christianity Islam are basically the same religion they started the yes or similarly rooted exactly there you go yeah and so and so there people of the book etc etc and you sit there and saying your definition of Heaven is different than my or your definition of this is different or Jesus was a prophet but Muhammad was the real prophet and you say okay because of all that we're going to kill the [ __ ] out of each other for a long [ __ ] time and at that point you're like well this is just [ __ ] stupid well it's all [ __ ] stupid because we look at them and say oh you're going to get 70 virgins because you blew yourself up with the suicide 72 you're [ __ ] ridiculous however I'm going to go to heaven live on a cloud with my [ __ ] Savior Jesus

necessarily need each other when there's 300 million of us and so we have a real issue billion or 7 billion and we have a real issue but we're going to be able to read each other's minds man that is coming and we're going to need real not purity of thought because there's nothing wrong with being perverted we have to understand that this we are perverted well all the things that people enoy yeah the things people enjoy sex and talking [ __ ] and jerking off and and all the nonsense that we enjoy is a part of us it's a part of our animal life and we hide a lot of these things because of our culture we hide a lot of these things because of you know we want to have jobs and we want to have you know there's another bottle of that Jack over there might crack that other the bottle oh shh there's another bottle of Jacko Lantern sod pop with extra vitamin C it's it's it's a part of what we are and we're shielding ourselves from our our sexuality and our reality by hiding and bullshitting all that [ __ ] and hiding the things that I don't have to do because I'm a comedian the things that Brian doesn't have to do we can say crazy [ __ ] about what we've done and what we do and drugs and sex and nonsense we can talk about all that because there's no expectations on us to to be normal we're comedians we're we're entertainers we're crazy people but for the average person the average person can't make a with a [ __ ] corporate job can't make a YouTube video about doing DMT and getting blown by Angel did we talk about this before I don't know because my brain is softening but it's hardening it's only remembering important [ __ ] hardening but I don't know if we talked about this it's it's it's it's it's a good thing cuz I've just forgotten my question but I hold on what was what my what I was saying was that the expectations on guys like me and Brian they don't exist because we're already silly we're we're ridiculous people that are it's fine if we talk about drugs it's fine if we talk about sex that was the thing you were saying that yeah so I don't know if we talked about this before but what I find disturbing about political representation is I I've done a lot of crazy [ __ ] I left home when I was like 13 and a half I've been a bad boy I've
been a robber I've been you are a bad boy I did a lot of bad things I drank a lot did a lot of drugs did a lot of crazy things the fact that our politicians and this is one thing that freaked me out a bit M Romney is here's a guy who didn't never do anything and by the way I don't want someone who never did anything I want someone who's done everything I want someone who reflects me so when people say you know what Shane you [ __ ] did drugs and you [ __ ] and you [ __ ] did this and you [ __ ] whacked off and you [ __ ] C Soden bastard I'm like yes I'm [ __ ] human human and by the way I would like a politician to say yeah I whacked off and came in my [ __ ] yeah [ __ ] SM [ __ ] get drunk because that's uh how we are as normal the fact that we have people who have to be squeaky clean which nobody is by the way and the fact that you have to be to me if you're squeaky clean you got 20 [ __ ] dead bodies and in your godamn basement cuz I don't trust those [ __ ] who are squeaky C I've never met anyone who's squeaky clean and nor do I want to we're a human and what you're saying is exactly right you're [ __ ] freaky business I've got freaky business everyone's got freaky business now do I want everyone in the world to know that I've had some freaky business probably probably not you say not but that's because everybody else can hide their freaky business when there's no I don't mind about there's some things I do there's some things what what I'm trying to get at is what I what I would like from my representation is Humanity yeah right like we all [ __ ] up we all do crazy [ __ ] we all do some [ __ ] thing there's if I look back well you [ __ ] admit to everything you're like I [ __ ] every wouldn't it be nice if like that wiener guy if the guy who's running up against Andrew weener if he went hey look yes I did who cares the guy likes to [ __ ] but not even him the guy running against him what if he said who cares the guy the guy likes to email chicks pictures of his dick what do you what do you give a [ __ ] it's just sex what does that have anything to do with the economy well his character his character but that's what they do but that's what they do yeah that's what they do the thing is is is is they go after character and my thing is when
they go after my character they go yes sir I did that I put it in the bum bum and I I don't feel bad about I've never done that you you don't have to be a squeaky clean guy because the expectations aren't on you in that job but we have this weird expectation that our our politicians are saviors and why politicians should represent us and they don't if they don't do ever if they never do anything bad then they don't represent us cuz we all do bad [ __ ] or by the way what's bad we all do human [ __ ] well let's so why the [ __ ] aren't our politicians representative of who we are which is all doing human [ __ ] well let's put it into perspective this will probably help this discussion this whole idea of voting for someone is 200 years old human culture has been around for 10,000 who knows how many thousands of years voting for someone is really new okay so you it's a popularity contest instead of a monarchy instead of a dictatorship instead of I wish it was a popularity contest it's a name recognition contest cuz you don't know the other [ __ ] names that's why it's all this commercials and all this [ __ ] it's a rigged popularity contest between two parties they're both represented by the same monopolies and giant corporations but it's still this new thing that they're trying to figure out to us it'll go through a whole time and I'm here quoting Smedley Butler war is just a racket well that's just because the politicians have really only existed in this form for a brief spasm of time twitch the king was born into Power exactly now we have to find these [ __ ] guys and they always have or they user everyone's like oh Hillary Clinton's going to win you're like why CU they know her name they know the [ __ ] name unless it comes out that Hillary Clinton is stuffing babies back up her [ __ ] and smothering them well that'll come out unless that's Les that comes out yeah she's got a good shot quite frankly don't think that she'll run and I and I was I thought you were going to say quite frankly don't think she stuffs babies up or [ __ ] I'll go listen man this is not I'm not being literal I don't think she'll run because I think I think look name recognition is there maybe she'll run I don't know but I don't think she'll run cuz she's old she's sick things are
coming out now that she's she's got health issues she is she has health issues she has health is it by the way I don't even know if the health issues are true they're making a big deal about them what well she's an older woman I mean time older men older women they they have health issues she's in her 60s right how old is she she's quite old well let's look it up I don't know I don't want to get caught out on I would say I'm going to guess I'd say she's 62 I'd say 68 69 [ __ ] [ __ ] no no that's what I say no that's what he said like a little child Clinton Clinton's Bill Clinton's very old guy she's 66 years old yeah so look she gets elected at 68 that's when people start dying you know me that's I mean we used to make fun of Reagan Reagan was in his 7 how old was he was in his 70s look that up is that was he in the 70 I believe so I believe he was in his 70s when he was president he was a bit cuz there was that Dennis Miller joke he was a bit he was a bit daughtery my grandfather's 72 and we don't let him use a remote control for the TV he was a bit daughtery now everybody's like oh [ __ ] Reagan Reagan was oh my God he was the can I can I ask you another question please do the Republicans are all getting in line to say I'm a Reagan Republican Reagan Reagan Reagan Reagan Reagan why isn't the Democratic party saying lining up saying I'm a [ __ ] Clinton Centrist [ __ ] took the worst deficit in American history to the biggest Surplus in American history best president [ __ ] serving in in in the 1900 or 1900s uh why why why why is he so vilified is Linsky 100% character he got a [ __ ] so the fact that he was probably the greatest president of the last century goes out the window he disparaged the great Office of the presidency with his painus do you know what he would do to women he would get them alone and pull his penis AP Asos to as opposed to every other president except for Ronald reag because his pen didn't work I wonder you know what the standard move was before Viagra I wonder you know like if at a certain point in time you could trust the president because they didn't get hardons anymore there's a a book by Plato uh called the gorgus where the main guy in it says I only became a good politician when I put
all the passions behind me cuz he was like 70 and he couldn't get his dick hard anymore and he could just be reasonable and that was and he that was the foundation of democracy was my dick doesn't work anymore so I'll just start democracy so ruin everyone else's lives that was that was the founder maybe that was gorgeous that was that was the first book of uh Plato who Socrates never wrote anything Plato wrote it all and he said Socrates said this mhm and then that was the foundation of democracy it didn't really ruin it for anybody because back then their their ideas of civilization were pretty [ __ ] loose in compared to what correct Socrates and Plato are both [ __ ] little boys left and right that was and it was only it was only the the dudes you know there was like you know 100 people slave owners and could vote so it's like we're going to base it on on their democracy where they went to the Agra and said yay or Nate do you think the future presidents would definitely like embrace the whole Clinton thing because look at Obama with doing that video do you mean like the whole Clinton thing well Obama just did a video with Zack Alan is he's getting a lot of heat from and that's kind of showing like a really cool president in my opinion what do you mean by getting heat you mean in a good way or in a bad way he's been getting heat heat for doing that video but what you mean by heat bad way bad way a bad way saying that the there's a lot of people think that Fox News especially think that pres the president shouldn't be put in that kind of situation even though that he was like on you know presence in the past have done Jay Leno and [ __ ] like that they just don't understand Clinton got on Areno and played [ __ ] sacks right exactly but I I wish I wish that Democrats would Embrace Clinton as Republicans have embraced Reagan Reagan when I grew up was a joke he was a daughtering old guy who didn't know [ __ ] yeah me too and now like oh [ __ ] I'm better I'm more Reagan than you're Reagan well I grew up whereas Clinton everyone's like get the [ __ ] away from him and you're like hold on a second this guy took the largest deficit in the history of a [ __ ] America and turned it into the largest uh Surplus now they they they credit Reagan for that but it was under Clinton MH and you know this
guy was like a a consensus politician you know he worked with the Republicans they actually the government actually worked which it doesn't do now why wouldn't Obama why wouldn't the Democrats say I'm a [ __ ] Clinton they don't because the Republicans did such a [ __ ] great job at by the way an an amazing politician and a consensus politician being destroyed because he like to [ __ ] well people helped him other than the Republicans the goddamn Democrats helped him women helped him Democrat men who are [ __ ] and white Knights they helped him everybody helped they all pointed at him look at I wouldn't do that why he [ __ ] up maybe you would maybe you would if you're a fat guy with a giant penis NOS who's all of a sudden president and everybody wants to touch you yeah you probably do some crazy [ __ ] probably can't even believe you're doing it while you're doing you probably can't believe when you're alone they shut that door good evening Mr President have a good night they shut that door and you're alone in the Oval Office you're like get the [ __ ] it started before that sure I was reading this amazing article recently about like Hillary Clinton and the Clinton presidency and the leadup to the Clinton presidency and it was like they have been uh implicated in murders they've been implicated in they was pushed for impeachment sex with men sex with women uh uh uh you know scandals over millions of dollars and you're like that's how a card [ __ ] well who knows how much it's true but you know what it is it doesn't matter if it's true because perception is reality but what what is true is there's a [ __ ] PR war with with all those what's what's the thing on uh on House of Cards the uh I haven't watched that show I just watched the first episode [ __ ] good don't be a spoiler person anyway aome all the all the sort of PR [ __ ] that goes on oh if you [ __ ] with me and don't vote for this I'm going to PR attack you and I'm going to get my super pack to attack you on this [ __ ] and I'm going to do this whatever and and and the thing is is what's interesting is they're taking real life [ __ ] that's happening in American politics and they put it into like a thing that we can understand I love it I don't like a lot of the the KX
no that I love no the the tricky sort of directorial Tricks but what I do love is taking real life [ __ ] and saying here's here's what's actually happening and we're going to put it into a drama and it's actually like Shakespeare it's like mcbath or something and we're watching our own politics as a play and it's insane and when you read actually what what they what they've been through what they've done and by the way what's good for the goose is good for they're not [ __ ] they're not they're not blameless of course they're no one's blameless no one's blameless not the left not the right not the everybody Libertarians green party 100% they're all freaks and by the way if you're running for politics you're a freak full stop well that's I think also one of the reasons why nobody wants to get behind the clintons is you start looking into their past the Whitewater stuff and the uh White Water is that the right name yeah is that the right term I don't know but I know what you mean when you say it what was Watergate yeah white water Watergate was Nixon White Water I get the two of them confused sometimes but um did you ever read the strange death of Vince Foster no but I read about the fact that they were implicated in a in a death yeah the strange death of Vince Foster what are you doing over there nothing death of Vince Foster is a very interesting uh very interesting book that I read uh I really have to go back and and reread it cuz I haven't read it in a long time but uh it's an investigation of um this guy Vince Foster and Vince Foster worked with the clintons and it tied Bill and Hillary Clinton to the alleged murder of Vincent Foster and what's really interesed about this for sure this [ __ ] guy for sure was moved they found his body gun in the hand which you never find is suicide the gun is never in your hand when you commit suicide when you commit suicide Boom the gun goes flying your [ __ ] body spasms this gun was like stuck to his thumb like there you know this was in the thing and his body suicide murders the this is House of car I'm not going to [ __ ] it with you on it but we got to stop talking about cuz it's House of card [ __ ] well I want to watch that show it's pretty but you know it's about that [ __ ] it's about like they're involved in some seriously and you're
like watching this thing saying it's like Shakespeare it's like whatever like it's a it's a Hollywood and then you read actually what happened and you go oh [ __ ] like that's there's some truth to that [ __ ] which the only problem with this it's I think a lot of it was compiled uh Kenneth Stars investigate oh they're saying Kenneth star's investigation was part of the conspiracy star was a py for the clintonites and when people think about Kenneth star they think about a guy who goes after Clinton right I mean he was part of what was wasn't he the guy that was investigating Clinton and chasing after him with Monica Linsky but they're calling him a py for the clintons I don't know man the whole the whole [ __ ] thing is when you start realizing like oh they all might all be murderers that might be just part of the course just like there these people anyone just think of this anyone who's willing to say yes we should go to war on some shaky grounds you're murder but also anyone who's saying I'm going to go and try to get elected and not have any bad [ __ ] from my life ever come out I don't know anyone in in my life that I've ever met that hasn't had some bad [ __ ] well the only way you can do that is to kill people that know bad [ __ ] about you or scare the [ __ ] out of them so they can't come up with all that bad [ __ ] exactly and I mean he they were involved in some shady real estate deals there was a first of all the big one is Mina Aransas do you know about all that do you know about Mina Arkansas is a [ __ ] trip man Mina Arkansas was where Barry seal who worked for the CIA was dropping all the cocaine that he got from South America they would fly in on these [ __ ] planes and drop packages off in Mina Arkansas and then land and they go pick up the packages well they dropped these packages you know they dropping [ __ ] millions of dollars wor their cocaine and these kids who lived in Mina Arkansas were hanging out on these train tracks They found these packages the the people whoever the [ __ ] work for the found these kids murdered them and then laid their body on the train tracks the autopsies were done the kids were high they fell asleep on the train tracks parents didn't believe it they said look these kids didn't get high this is
[ __ ] so they hired an independent investigation the independent investigation finds that the kids have been murdered the kids had been stabbed okay so it wasn't a matter of them dying from train tracks their bodies were laid on the trains postm so then they start digging deeper and they find out more and more [ __ ] and then this guy bued seal gets popped and it turns out the Barry seal had been flying back and forth from the [ __ ] South American Coke dealers forever hold on a second is this a I died see they murdered him in his car when he was on his way to testify with George Bush's phone number in his [ __ ] pocket okay that guy that guy literally sold drugs for the CIA like literally like testified gave all want the movie rights to this story that's crazy oh you'll never hear it there's all these pictures of him with all these South American guys like [ __ ] uh what's his name Manuel Nora and Pablo Escobar there's photos of this [ __ ] guy with everybody holy [ __ ] dude they were bringing in Coke money and this was all happening in Arkansas the guy who state is bringing in [ __ ] kazillion Dollar in Coke money every year winds up first of all how the [ __ ] do you run a [ __ ] State like Arkansas sorry no offense Arkansas folks I'm sure there's some good spots and I'm sure you got great barbecue but let's be realistic how the [ __ ] does the governor of Arkansas wind up to be the the the the king of the entire country how you got to get a lot of [ __ ] money and if you had a lot of money why would you be running for office in Arkansas like what's Arkansas man why you in arkans I've got a question what's going on if you had that much money it takes billions of doar to run for president of the United States billions billions if you're if you have that much money or that much support why the [ __ ] would you want that gig because I don't know any president besides Reagan but which by the way is a a a construct CU when he was in power it was a [ __ ] disaster but you go okay like why would you want that job no one comes out unscathed no one comes out like you know what that [ __ ] president was awesome well rean didn't come out onage no no no he came out [ __ ] EXA he was a dog until we said you know what he was
the best one ever but the thing is is you sit there and go why they're going to put everything you've ever done under a microscope everything you've ever met is under a microscope everything you've ever said is under micros why the [ __ ] would you want that [ __ ] job well not only that I mean that's that's certainly got to be impossible an impossible task for any normal human being especially a man any any man with a fun penis he's going to have some [ __ ] terrible stories in his past but that said forget about all that the idea that any one person should be like that is what's most ridiculous not even the idea that they're going to look all this stuff up and find all this and then there's the idea that any should have killed somebody just jk just JK the just jk just the idea that one person really can run the whole country like we need a head guy like why do we need a head guy do we really still need that I don't know but what I'm saying is to get there those [ __ ] have to be Shady because if you look at like George Bush Senior he was like a back room bureaucrat but he was head of the CIA he's like our [ __ ] Putin and then he he gets in and he's just like this sort of non-e effectual sort of like nothing [ __ ] dude but he's like he's like the head of the [ __ ] CIA and you sit there and you just go I don't even know what the [ __ ] happening here anymore more I don't know what you're writing over there what happens if presidents become like tuna like we get to a point where nobody wants to be president I don't want to be president everybody's like [ __ ] this gets to a point where there's like literally no one running for president we have the presidential election today and everybody's like because because people like whenever I do like political pieces and [ __ ] they're like you should by the way I've seen it with you too like on Twitter and [ __ ] they're like you should run for office you guys should run for office you Joe Rog for president Etc ET and you're like are you [ __ ] crazy well not only that forget about [ __ ] crazy what kind of a [ __ ] stressful job even if you were the most perfect Yoda Buddha angel that made it to age 45 and never did a crime and never smoked a joint and never did a bump whatever you know even if you were
what kind of crazy pressure would that be to all of a sudden you're the guy who's deciding whether or not military action takes place you're the guy who's deciding whether or not a policy is going to be instituted like Obamacare that people going that responsibility I don't dude if you make a YouTube video that people don't like they want you to die could you imagine what it must feel like to be the guy who invented Obamacare I have personally seen people freak the [ __ ] out get purple-faced sweat flying off their head talking about the nonsense that is Obamacare I don't understand it I don't know who's right I don't I I'm not a small business owner in that sense where they have a hire you know a bunch of people and pay for their I don't know what's good and what's bad I don't know even I don't even understand why it was instituted in the first place I'm not sure I totally get it cuz I've heard too many different versions B out talk about are we supposed to do something by the way this is like the last week like you have one week you guys are taken care of you don't have to worry about anything yeah but we do we have to like say yes or no do because they make it seem like you're going to get fine if you don't do the right thing it's I I think for individuals I'm not sure how it works but I know that you guys always had insurance so I think it's essentially the same insurance is it essentially the same I don't know I don't I don't think it's any no one knows though so many people are going to get fin this is going to be the most money that the government's ever made by not telling us about I'll say well we don't have to get bogged down because I'll just go off for hours about this so well what I was just saying is that I don't think anybody should have that kind of responsibility I don't think any person should have the weight of the world like that on their back I think there has to be a better way to collectively decide what's going on than to give one guy white hair it's crazy poor [ __ ] man nobody can do that gig here's a guy he's you man how old are you how old are you 44 he's just a little older than you that's nonsense well I don't know about that cuz older people are even more crazy but that's absolute craz what I'd like to say is is
I agree with you that we're going to vote a collective me to try to make those decisions cuz there is no Collective me what I mean by he's you and mean by he's the same age what I mean is it's I'm just putting it into perspective that I don't feel anyone ever is the guy 100% it can't be done okay it's a ridiculous proposition he's going to go toe-to-toe with Putin over Crimea what do that if I'm going to go toe-to-toe with Putin over CR I'm going to say you know what I lost because that guy used to run the KGB he's got all the guys on the ground with all their weapons he's already won he's got a cons what the [ __ ] am I going to do stop it could you imagine if they had Obama if they did something to Obama like could you imagine if something happened where like well you know that guy that got poisoned in in in Russia no in Ukraine in the Ukraine yeah his face turned in this horrible it was horrible horrible poison like the guy came very close to die well I don't know about all that I wasn't there but what I'm saying it allegedly was Putin could you imagine if we found out that some you know not even Putin some crazy person out there had it in for Obama and was actually going after him like oh I'm sure there's a thousand has ever I mean we've never had an American president assassinated by anyone in a foreign country and the closest to it was blaming or from a foreign country blaming Lee Harvey Oswald who had gone to the Soviet Union for Killing Kennedy but other the guys who've killed presidents before whether it is uh Abraham Lincoln or how many how many presidents been assassinated was it three why you asking me I don't know you don't know you're not even from my country I fig they you have to learn those things before we let you the Queen of England once wore a dress that was either way I don't think anyone has ever been any of the murderers relatively small were blamed on a foreign enemy right it's so fascinating man the idea that there might be a new war cooking and it might be with Russia well I've been saying this for a number of years thank you very much who I I go to Russia and I'm like what the [ __ ] going on mhm cuz I went there and I said I don't understand I don't get the the politics what what is Putin like is he communist because the Communists like
him right is he sort of right-wing is he leftwing no no no no he's he's pro- Russia and you're like okay I get he's Pro Russia everyone's Pro [ __ ] whatever the country they're from what the [ __ ] is his politics because the Communists support him the [ __ ] fascists support him everyone supports him and and he's like no he's Pro Russia he's anti-west so Pro Russia equals anti-west and when you go there you realize these people a whole generation and more now cuz it's the new generation were it was the Cold War it was like we on our side were like oh commies eat babies and you can buy a house for a pair of blue jeans all that horeshit they grew up on all that being like American gangsters [ __ ] you know right and so what happens is Putin comes along and just goes yeah America [ __ ] it's not our economic crisis it's America's economic crisis they [ __ ] us up it's not us being [ __ ] the oil [ __ ] it's Saudi Arabia who run is run by America the Cold War rhetoric in Russia never stopped that's one thing that we never we don't realize here they are saying America's to blame for all of our [ __ ] did it never stop or did it like take a break and then rekindle with Putin it took a small break with yelton and then you pu that guy was hanging out well Putin's in like 16 years now but you remember yelton would like come over and he would hang out was he was he the guy that had thing in his head no that was G GB gorbachov started it yelton took over pushed it real fast everyone loved him because he was a democracy dude but he started all the oligarchs Putin was head of KGB he came in and now has been basically running [ __ ] for a long time but the interesting thing about Putin is now he's just like [ __ ] you I I don't know if you saw the Crimean address but he's like you guys put it up on us NATO put it up on us you guys put your missile defense systems along our borders [ __ ] You kmea Is Ours you want to go to war let's go it's like he's been sort of training in silent like I'm goingon to [ __ ] punch the punching bag and get ready and now he's ready to go and this is this whole thing in the north it's here it's Crimea he's like I don't give a [ __ ] what you say I don't give a [ __ ] about the West I don't give a [ __ ] about America I don't give a
[ __ ] about your sanctions and this is why we're going back to this cold war rhetoric that's not even cold war rhetoric it's beyond cold war rhetoric because he's like [ __ ] you I don't give a [ __ ] what you say now is this because um he's looking out for Russia and Russia's in a bad economic situation and Russia needs all that that oil I mean they have oil they have oil they have tons of oil they have tons that's their whole thing in fact all of the energy in the Ukraine is is supplied by Russia the majority of natural gas going into Western Europe is from Russia so what's going on here what is the the underlying motive for like why this is escalating they have all these res Crimea has been their only freshwater Port since Peter the Great so it's the only place they can get to the rest of the world and someone else ran it and they didn't like that Ukraine uh Ukraine if you draw a line the the the western part is pro- Europe the eastern part is pro- Russia so they said well [ __ ] you we're just going to take it back and what happened is they did the same thing in Georgia there all of the old um Soviet republics they're now taking back and Crimea is is is has been they they've wanted it because it's strategically important to them for their Naval Base but basically they just cut a big chunk of Europe quote unquote Europe out and said it's ours now and we went yeah okay so we just don't want to start any [ __ ] we can't nothing we can do unless we're going to go to what are you going to do it's like saying New Jersey said they don't want to be part of [ __ ] America so Russia moved in and we're gonna [ __ ] right right right it can't happen yeah that would be interesting yeah if Russia said we can't take New Jersey exactly and then and then by the way what are you going to do send in troops it's not going to happen what is going to what is it going to take for our culture to move past all these things that are holding us back like this kind of gangster Behavior avor that all countries do not just the United States not just Russia pretty much any country that has a lot of power they just decide like they need some resources they decide they need this they need that I mean it's it's always been what it you know what we're seeing is just a really complicated sort of
propaganda I agree with you and I I say that the only way we have any real power is consumer advocacy what does that mean whatever we buy that's the power because that's economics economics runs everything right and as long as Europe is buying Russian energy then Russia is going to say I'm going to do whatever the [ __ ] I want Russia is redrawing the borders of Europe with Europe's money right you know because they sell the gas to to Europe we're in the exact same position right we we're sitting there saying okay well we're going to do this we're going to do that why because we use Google gole because we use [ __ ] Facebook because we buy Nikes because we buy Ford because whatever what's going to happen is people realize whatever I buy that's the real power right if you and when I say that what what I mean is if you look at pre 2008 number one sellers Escalade Hummer you know all the big SUVs post 2008 Prius right because all of a sudden gas [ __ ] tripled in price so the only thing that really moves policy is how people vote with the dollars because if you [ __ ] start voting with dollars with with un lever with Proctor and Gamble with Ford with GM with Exxon then you're going to move policy you can move policy decisions tomorrow tomorrow because these guys have lines to power and they say [ __ ] these people are buying Fords anymore they're not buying Exxon gas or they're not buying whatever the idea that that oil is so it fluctuate so much has always been baffling to me it doesn't fluctuate that much but yeah but it would it fluctuates it fluctuates between profit and crazy Prof well do you remember when um you were talking about the the gas hike you remember there was right when Bush was leaving office when George W was leaving office and right when he was leaving office it became like this weird feeling like the the gas was so expensive that it became like this weird feeling like people who weren't conspiracy theorists were going wait wait a minute are we getting [ __ ] like is he leaving and in the process is he just does he have like some crazy three-month grace period where they just start sucking money out of people because it just started going
up and up and up and you're like well sorry we have to pass on this la loss to the consumer oil's more expensive these days where wait a minute what is what why is oil more expensive what exactly is going on why is it coin coincidentally coinciding with you leaving office like we couldn't dig into that then that would be very difficult to pull off today if the same situation was happening today it would be much harder to pull off 10 years from now more difficult 20 years from now impossible that's what I think I think that all this creepy [ __ ] that they've been able to do and [ __ ] people over and clandestine operations like that I think they can't it's not you can't hide it anymore that's why they're so mad at guys like Edward Snowden that's why they're so mad at guys like Julian Assange it's like those guys they broke the first holes in the Dyke and the water's coming through I don't mean that kind of dke Brian godamn because if you look at it you say if you if you look at after 9/11 the Saudi royal family um who were living here in America were flown out why because whenever we have problems with uh oil prices we just go to Saudi and say make more and then the prices come down just because they own the most reserves the easy stuff the beautiful crude when is that what year is that 18 2008 wow that's crazy so what happens is if we if we have a problem with Supply we go to Saudi and say what what OPEC should have been which was how can we drive prices up Saudi Arabia actually Den neutered because they said okay we're going to [ __ ] drive prices down whenever the states say yes that's what's interesting because that's why Al-Qaeda exists because we are Saudi Arabia's friend and we and we use them to go up and down Bin Laden who comes from one of the [ __ ] richest families in Saudi Arabia said [ __ ] you I'm not going to you know we're the land of Mecca and Medina we are the land of [ __ ] Islamic Purity we're not going to count out to the Americans that's where it all comes from it all comes from Saudi Arabia because of oil and because we force them to to you know lower oil prices which makes us money which then they see is We're In Cahoots and then boom that's why there's resentment against us when you find out
about these you know small countries that were doing terrible up until oil production and then they became like this most incredible magical land where everything is essentially free I mean the amount of wealth that people in those acquire crazy and not in a long period of time a fairly short period of time is when you look at human history all of a sudden not human history yeah modern culture yeah anything really essentially one of the ababi if you fly into Abu Dhabi which has the two largest mosques in the world you fly in and there's a picture from 1957 and it's a mud fort and like four huts and then you drive into Abu Dhabi now which looks like Las Vegas on steroids yeah in [ __ ] 50 years yeah they've built New York well some someone on my message board had that point they were saying you know uh that I always go on and on about the pyramids I'm fascinated about the pyramids and some guy showed this aerial photo of Dubai and he was like [ __ ] the pyramids man look how crazy this [ __ ] is I was like you yeah yeah 50 years it went from zero a mud hut to yeah he's got a point you know one one day if we ever found Dubai we I mean what it's the the more impressive aspect of the Egyptian pyramids is we don't understand how they were built we don't get it so we look at the the just the sheer size and the numbers of stones and like [ __ ] how' they do that but the what happened what happened to the voice yeah did it pop out what happened check check there it goes um but the the difference between like the amount of structures they had how even know that happened why I felt the uh the sound stop in my ear it's just the uh cord oops great no no I didn't get it don't worry I almost got my laptop again oh God I'm a [ __ ] fool for this Pap right here right right to the right of you um anyway where were we um pyramids oh yeah we're getting you flew over Manhattan you know if Manhattan was aand in the desert it would be like 10 times more insane than finding the pyramids because the structures there's so many of them what I find crazy about pyramids and actually Bronze Age weapons is that we can't build weapons like that anymore like what weapons there was a a thing I was watching so
therefore it has to be true because it was on TV about Bronze Age swords that were like so insanely strong cuz I always thought you know they were shitty like lead swords or copper swords or whatever they had Bronze Age armor and Bronze Age swords and they would shoot like a Bronze Age armored vest with like a modern day rifle and it wouldn't it couldn't it couldn't penetrate it really and I was like how the [ __ ] is that even possible how that does that sounds like nonsense no it isn't nonsense and swords that are like still bronze aged swords that can cut through like crazy actually it sounds like nonsense now that I say can you do me a favor you're just laughing your head off can you do me a favor and look up Bronze Age armor SL Bronze Age Weaponry that shit's nonsense son well until until [ __ ] I get verification I'm not well they certainly spent a lot of time uh making weapons back then that you know that they uh I mean they didn't spend I don't know how we've devolved into fighting over Bronze Age weaponry like how much time it's definitely not my number one sphere of expertise how much time do you think it must they must have spent like building a samurai sword something all yeah because what I was about to bring up with you is I don't know what's going this is what you went right here Bronze Age sword yeah but what I want you to do is is there's got to be an article about Bronze Age Weaponry being more sophisticated than modern-day weapon that's silly how's that and [ __ ] Metallurgy yeah exactly hm well maybe with our modern day bronze cuz we figured out bronze kind of sucks well correct we moved on to some better [ __ ] there but there's a thing about like Bronze Age uh armor what's what's the thing that it's super strong dope I don't know I don't want to get too far off on this cuz I'm not I just I read a thing about it that's all well I I believe that they certainly had some knowledge how to make bows and swords and there's a lot of weapons that they constructed back then that were pretty Advanced you know they figured out some [ __ ] I had a thing that we were G I was going to [ __ ] bring it up I've lost
it I've had a few alses this is the problem with the end of our goddamn there's no problems our uh our podcast is I'm now I'm [ __ ] what do you guys think about the uh the pastor that recently died the the guy that attacked all the gate right do you think that it's uh the gays and everyone should like attack his funeral why or do you think they should take the higher ground take yeah or take the higher ground what do you what do you think why that's a ridiculous question of course he shouldn't attack his funeral we should ignore that but it might it might shock their whole family and their whole call to be like oh [ __ ] now I see what you're talking about that's [ __ ] up no no this hypoc you'd be a hypocrite and also you you're not going to shock their family their family was under the the like they were under the reign of a dictator or like a religious dictator an old [ __ ] he was an old crazy [ __ ] who screamed at people and scared the [ __ ] out of him and had them all believing that his way was the only way he's the God hates facts guy he's the guy who holds up those signs okay he's just a crazy old dude that's all you don't know uh House of Cards and I don't know this guy you don't know Fred Phelps Westboro Baptist Church is pretty big I'm going to put up my hand because I know we wrote a lot of stuff about it for vice but I have I'm not I don't know [ __ ] about him um anyway the the bottom line is that the guy was an [ __ ] now he's dead yeah it's just it's unfortunate that people get roped into that sort of a hateful organization like that you know what my whole thing is it takes all sorts I don't know what you do over in your compound and I don't know what well it's not just that because this guy would go out he would attack people he would go out and they would you know protest funerals of I what I'm saying is he was going out there being a bad guy I'm saying I don't I don't try to look at my neighbor's next door yard and oh like he was doing youve saying or anybody does yeah well you know what man it's just sad when people get people are some people are like easily LED and instead of finding some you know nice religious leader who's you put together a nice community and they all have picnics and [ __ ] they found an [ __ ] I
mean that's really essentially what happened they got roped into some [ __ ] gravity and uh and now he's dead yeah they definitely shouldn't protest his funeral man just no just you know he's he's a lesson just trying to start [ __ ] over a legit trust I believe in Dynamic Fasteners and all that like Karma high like positive stuff Dynamic Fastener I just think what are you talking about Dynamic Fastener is point Dynamic Fastener is something that that he's like a huge sponsor for all these UFC fighters right but what is it he it's just like Parts it's like screws and bolts but this guy's just a big UFC fan so he just pays for all these people but it's just just say that no one's going to know what the [ __ ] you're talking about I didn't know what you're talking about I I've seen the ads but I I had no idea what your connection was so ridiculous I don't know what I never I never looked into what that was you should it's really interesting because the guy's just a fan and then you realize it's not that expensive to be a sponsor for one of these Fighters so this guy that just owns like like this part guy and he's just a fan so now everyone was like coming out in shirts with like this his Dynamic Fastener on it and it's just like nothing it's nothing that you so he's just doing there's another guy who does that too a technologist guy who does that I asked him once I like why why do you advertise he goes I just like it like seeing um I think it was like the real world or something and it was like the biggest show on TV at the time and it would show at like 3: in the morning when most people would get home in New York and there was the guy the Brooklyn clown the Brooklyn clown you know he was a clown but it would be like the number one show on TV but people would come home at like 300 in the morning and he was a clown who would buy like the advertising spots for like a grand and so it was this huge show that millions of people would watch but all the advertising would be about the Brooklyn clown huh it's actually really cheap to get advertising late at night that's what I was trying to get it's like Tito tacos seriously you know how many T you were saying the the fastner guy can get get in there and get the thing this this guy was super smart
cuz he's like oh here's this time slot that that everyone's getting home to watch the real world or it was some big show well how weird is it when they give away their whole Channel or when they have a fake show there you go that's the weirdest [ __ ] ever you're like am I Mont Williams is this a real show Montel trud right what's going on here mon 30 years he got right in jail trud no 10 he got 10 years you got 10 only yeah have you done him here no cuz uh no I wouldn't have him on I would never have that guy on that gu well because I watched a lot of those inal I met him he's a nice guy I met him because he um yeah he put a bunch of money into something called the IP was the international pool tour and uh he um he put on these gigantic events in Vegas like the most money people ever got paid from professional pool was Kevin Trudeau yep and he put together a television show and he was going to have these guys play and it was on television and they were playing pool for hundreds of thousands of dollars they they had done it full blast like he put the pedal to the metal spent millions of bucks that he robbed from little old ladies who thought they were going to lose weight Secrets they don't want you to know about and me but he spent all this money under the premise that there was laws that um that hadn't been instituted yet um that they did they didn't know that they existed they were going to write them about internet gambling so when they made these when they made the business model they factored in internet gambling people would be able to gamble on these pool matches and we'll profit from that and then they'll be residual have a bunch of gambling junkies associate our our site with a good place to gamble you know because there was all these online gambling poker all those people that got arrested and had to move to Costa Rica well this is all part of that okay so when they came in and shut down online gambling he was [ __ ] so he lost shitloads of money had spilled again had to give people their money back had to started the had to pay off these pool players in like fractions on the dollar I mean I don't know what the fraction was it was 75 cents on a dollar if some of them got paid all their money but he didn't pay all of them I maybe they all got paid eventually but it's a long struggle you're talking about right
so this guy interesting [ __ ] so then um you know pool takes this big [ __ ] slide afterwards but everybody sort of hopes and prays that this guy gets his [ __ ] together and comes back to pool he's like the Savior pool this [ __ ] crazy guy who rips off all ladies I actually want to do that story as a movie that's the most thing ever cuz he he he did this pool thing it blew up in his face and he said I going to cure cancer with no no he always had the nonsense the nonsense was always there he always had nonsense he used the nonsense to make his money cuz I I get home at like 4 in the morning M so I watch late night infomercials and I'm I'm I'm weak at that hour right I'm not the strongest no no I'm not the strongest mentally oh I see see I see I'm not I don't know why that came up we talking about you get LED down a dark road because of one of these you come up you're wasted right and you and he's going you know what it's [ __ ] powdered asparagus that's what it's going to do it I'm like you know what I'm in Coral Calcium remember that one ready yeah that was I some Coral Calcium that was the one yeah that was the one you know it's Coral Calcium these Japanese people have I would have hair dead I would have put it in my eyeball yeah Coral it's 4:30 in the morning yeah you're ready to go you're like [ __ ] I'm I want Coral Calcium it seems like with something that's missing in my life yeah I need that [ __ ] yeah when it's really late at night you're like you're convinced he got [ __ ] though yeah 10 years is a long ass time and uh you know he had done some time already he' done like a few months he tried to tell the judge that he's changed his ways we got to get you know we got to do his we got to Wolf of Wall Street that [ __ ] well you know I I have a a good friend who worked for him for years [ __ ] off yeah let's make that if you want to make we got do it right now everybody we want to do the movie stop I don't know if my friend signed any NDA so I have to be careful Trudeau doesn't get out of jail and and throw Heat at him he might [ __ ] Escape even if he told the story truthfully though the story Redemption the truthful story is actually quite fascinating you know the the actual truthful story of him spending all that
money on pool you're blowing my [ __ ] brain cuz pool players are a [ __ ] a bunch of Maniacs crazy guys out there scrambling and hustling and wearing [ __ ] wearing overalls and pretending they just hopped off a farm just anybody play little friendly pool yeah I mean that that's what half of those guys grew up doing you know that's half of those guys that's where they get their uh that's where they get their experience you know and so all of a sudden they're wearing tuxedos and they're playing on TV and it was one of those weird TV channels too it was like it was on one of those burgeoning have to make a movie of this [ __ ] it's interesting stuff man they were good events too he really did get the best players in the world it's also like a global news event that this [ __ ] got like 10 years yeah yeah so anyway we shouldn't talk about it anymore but we should make this [ __ ] listen man you should make the movie and I'll tell you with the story I'll connect you to people not making any movies man I got no time for that ain't nobody got time for that I ain't got no time for that um that uh that story is kind of unique though it's Unique also pool is tragic [ __ ] game it's a tragically uh Haunted Game and I'm not exactly sure why it seems like somewhere along the line pull [ __ ] somebody over and well it's a first first of all didn't [ __ ] anyone over it's a barroom game that you bet your pcture money on mhm and all of a sudden it was like legitimate because of a awful but amazing Tom Cruz movie and then you're like why is isn't it snooka well it was way bigger you know before the Tom Cruz movie in the 1900s the turn of the century there was a thousand snier no no pool there was a thousand pool halls in New York City at the turn of the century pool was huge and know the term pool doesn't mean pocket billiards pocket billiards is the game the term pool is gathering up all your money and betting it pulling your money together and betting it on games so pool was the name pool in fact was inherently connected to this derelict bachelor lifestyle scw now why cuz I got you on the subject of pro the only the only thing that you know like he knows more about MMA than except for pool well there's a lot of people know a lot more about pool than I do but I know enough I know enough in 1962 is
when it became really famous though it was the Hustler Jackie [ __ ] gleon that's Fant who could play his ass off Jackie play really good for real Paul Newman was making he he played uh Minnesota Fats and then and then uh Paul Newman lost to him but then beat I was thinking about that I can't be beat tonight that just that line cuz I was I was on a roll I was [ __ ] giving people [ __ ] whatever I was like I can't be beat tonight and I was like where's that from this is my table man I own it yeah I can't be beat Paul Newman Paul Newman couldn't play a lick but terrible his fingers but you could tell he couldn't really play it was offensive to a real pool player you watch his goofy stroke and shots he'd make like get out of here with that [ __ ] combination bank shot that's that's that's nonsense nobody really shoots that shot so you're going to say that what about Tom Cruz he could play really yeah Tom Cruz [ __ ] off he apprenticed with Mike seagull Mike seagull who's a multiple time world champion and also was a lefty like Tom Cruz Mike seagull who's a friend of mine a brilliant pool player like literally one of the greatest of all time and he mentored Tom Cruz taught him brain he Tom Cruz is a maniac Vince he [ __ ] took that dude and he taught him how to play and he looks like a pool player he doesn't look like a great pool player there's a fluidity of motion someone who truly good at something brige I have an open Bridge so I'm going to tell you a true story when I was a young kid there's a lot of pool playing in in uh Montreal like for money and I had a girlfriend who was a girl and she would friend and but she was a fantastic pool player oh so she would win but she was like if you ever see anyone who has an open Bridge you've won that was the whole thing like I and so Paul Newman has an open Bridge well that that's not really correct there's a lot of really great players Rob Siz one of the best in the world plays almost exclusively with an open Bridge very rarely closes his Bridge he just prefers to sight the queue that way and once you get really good it doesn't matter there's certain shots where some guys prefer closed bridge but there's some great snooker players that never closed their Bridge all the guys that came over from snooker snooker's all done with an open bridge
and they have the best fundamentals out of almost any pool player it's so far and the [ __ ] pockets are so small tiny Pockets tiny balls it's a very precise game so the mechanics have to be absolutely perfect so snooker players have are you a better fighter or pool player this point in my life I suck at both at this point in my life whatever you suck at both no I suck at both you don't you're like what are you likey you're like five times no no no Taekwondo Champion state championship I I four years in a row that's [ __ ] big but that was 1988 1989 1990 whatever it 85 to 88 so so you're one of the best lovers Taw guys I know how to are you better are you better at pool or Taekwondo come on I was definitely better at taekwondo okay yeah I was way better I pool pool I got marginal at best I pull him a decent what do you call a beat player like would you play for money yeah i' play it's fun it's fun but I you know I'm not good enough to beat anybody that's actually good pool is something that you have to literally play eight hours a day can you can you win right off the rack what do you mean can I run out yeah I can run out I'm just not that consistent I can break and run out but I might not do it the next game I might miss it you really need to like put in the numbers the hours cuz what you're doing when you're playing when you get really good is you you are so in tune with the amount of effort that it takes to knock your stick into this ball that you're literally counting the revolutions with feel that the ball's going to make it's it's a it's like archery in a lot of ways and in that when you're actually executing it requires absolute complete concentration and there's something that's very attractive to me about anything that requires absolute complete concentration whether it's martial arts whether it's pool whether it's archery I think there's something deeper that's going on I think my brain is recognizing that it it needs some intense that's what I like about the huster and color of money is when they're going there's a rhythm M they're just popping they're just doing it and when they're not they're like oh I'm I'm hitting shots right but when he's going he's like I can't be beat
[ __ ] well did you ever see there's a scene in The Hustler where he plays this guy or in The Color of Money where he plays this guy Grady Stevens yeah remember that there a shootout only worse well that guy that's only it only gets worse doesn't it that guy is one of the best PL players ever especially money Players that's Keith mccre he's a real legit big money player and he was a real unique player because he started playing so young that he couldn't reach over the table so he started playing with his arm cocked out to the side and he stuck with that forever and he was just a world beater this guy and that's what he used to do he used to walk into pool halls with a shirt that said the world gets the eight you know what that means that means he spots you in a game of nine ball he spots you the eight ball that means you win the if you get the eightball in or the nine ball he wins only with the nine ball so he's given professional players an advantage he's like that's how confident he is right and it was a real guy so like when he's playing this Grady Stevens like to the people that know the game like it's very it's very appropriate it's perfect you know that was a that movie really represented a lot of the the craziness that that you know gambling and and pool and being on the road is did none of them ever get it right though you know what I hate all like remakes and especially of Classics and and the Hustler is such a great [ __ ] film it was an excellent follow on of a guy who is just like sitting there in his own [ __ ] just going I'm going to come back now it's awesome yeah well Walter Tevis is a uh the guy who wrote both of them and he wrote The Hustler and he also wrote The Color of Money but The Color of Money the book it's a very different book it's very different ending very different it follows fast Eddie like on the like he goes around by himself there's no Vince there's no Tom Cruz character in the book they made the Tom Cruz character because they wanted to Jazz it up for uh I mean it was a good move for for pool was a huge huge movie but uh since then video games came along kick pool in the dick was that book hard to follow I could imagine a pool book be like well that's just you though cuz you're not in the pool yeah but I mean like did they explain like the ball
rolled down here no it's not really about pool see that was the thing about the Hustler too did you ever see that movie The Hustler long long time ago it's really not about pool what it's about is about a a guy trying to prove that he's worth something in life and [ __ ] up and making colossal mistakes along the way it's about two romantic losers connected together and she's a Los Tak care of she's got a limp I mean there's a lot of dark [ __ ] to this movie she was a drunk and you know Jackie he was a drunk he's a drunk and Jackie gleon drunk is a drunk I mean the these gamblers and and and [ __ ] murderers and all these people that they were interacting with it was so much of it was just a character study and that was the fascinating thing about that movie The Pool playe like I said was dog [ __ ] Paul Newman looked like he couldn't make a ball Jackie gleon could play he could he could play better than all of them better than Tom Cruz better than Paul Newman Paul Newman who was just a brilliant actor just didn't put the time in you would have to put a lot of time in to look like a real pool player you know because there's there's like a gentleness to the stroke of a real and that is classic oh Jackie gleon really was an amazing cat yeah you know and an unabashed Drinker too like would they would ask him like why he drinks he goes I drink to get [ __ ] up you know what's weird about Jack I was somewhere recently I was in Guana I was in Guana doing this uh garbage thing that we're doing and I watched this old French film it's a huge French film like successful like massive like cultural French film the star of the film Jackie gleon wow he doesn't say a word he plays a mute uh janitor who picks up a sort of French prostitute and takes care of her and her young kid and it's this French classic film with Jackie gleon as the star who never says a [ __ ] word and by the way it's like uh Bert Lancaster did the same thing with the leopard in in Italy where it was a huge uh successful film where he spoke in Italian he did it phonetically right they would just say into his ear and he'd say the same thing but Jackie Leon was like so he had earpiece while he was acting no no no they would just say like uh V and he would and then they roll it
chig they would just say it in his ear you just do it phonetically oh okay okay there's no earpiece so he just repeated it yeah and then uh but Jackie gleon has this like huge French like you know FM like that's like French [ __ ] like cultural where he's the star of it as this janitor in a in a building and he he never says a word when I lived in New York I had a friend uh who one of his friends knew the guy is a [ __ ] cocky connection but it was uh it was they were all in music business like rock and roll guys like one of them was in this band and he knew a dude who somehow or another knew someone who bought Jackie Gleason's old home and Jackie gleon this is the story Jackie gleon this is obviously third hand could be total horseshit that's it the story was and it's a fun story The Jackie glean was drinking with Nixon and him and Nixon were buddies and that you know they're talking football and throwing back some [ __ ] Jack and cokes and uh Nixon's like you want to see a [ __ ] UFO so they get they get an Air Force One and they fly some military base where they've got a crashed Flying Saucer and Jackie gleon from then becomes a crazy uh UFO believer and Jackie gleon has this backyard in Upstate New York and he has a fake UFO designed and built in his driveway to replicate the thing that he saw he hires a bunch of people to try to recreate something he puts it together in his head sort of like a crime sketch like he would try to reenact it I story that's the fun Story how do that house do you believe it know I would like to find my my did [ __ ] up my computer it's not working luckily I got a backup Jo you're spilly MC Spillers yeah you're drunk why don't you get slurry Mur why don't you get that chemical that you could just put on your computer probably a good idea um all right buddy but I don't know if Jackie gleon really did why don't you Google it find out did Jackie gleon uh really really into UFOs was Jackie gleon into UFOs it like well Joe Rogan once said I spread my own [ __ ] information I like that story a lot I'll make up a story not even real I I made it up put it out there and then I'll find it on Wikipedia and I'll use it as a reference to prove when I tell the story again trip to the alien morg you got it okay wow so this is a real rumor to the Moon
Alice there was a time when you could say that phrase scroll that down stop go back collaborate listen stop right there you're [ __ ] drunk as [ __ ] dude uh there was another son jacking extremely serious armchair UFO researcher and prided himself on a huge collection of UFO related books which numbered into the thousands you see I call [ __ ] you know why I doubt there's thousands of books written on UFOs put that back up what more could you say like oh uh you know and then he saw a light too as soon as the new title came out even in Europe or the UK Jackie had a copy H well I don't know if it's true um but that was the story that this guy told me about house it's a dope story I like the story that's true if Jackie Leon really was some sort of a crazy UFO fanatic and that that's the root of give even more imagine if it's [ __ ] true oh it's all true what a beautiful thing it would be if they really did have like a Hanger 18 you know what I want when we're old and we're sitting on the Cove drinking our drink looking at the water just me and you gray old silver bags and someone's going to go you know what [ __ ] Jackie gleon went to Area 51 and saw that [ __ ] I wonder what going to happen yeah I wonder I wonder it will happen I wonder if they really do have something I mean that would be I would wish one person who was legitimately intelligent who was dying would spill the beans I wish every dude that spills the beans you're like man I don't you [ __ ] weirdo it just I'm not my my one thing my one thing is how impossible would it be to keep a secret in today it too impossible you know one person would say something I don't agree with that because they look they kept a secret when they were making the Manhattan Project but that was a different era what one thing I will say one thing I will say is is maybe those movies and and and TV shows and leaks and every CU we're all like oh yeah Area 51 of course it's the aliens like maybe that's you know maybe that's part of it well look we know that Secrets can be kept I can't believe Secrets totally can be kept because we didn't find out about the Gul of tonen until like way way late like there was some people involved in the GF of tonen incident when did it become
people look 30 years 40 years Secrets can be kept yeah but nowadays it's it's it's pretty difficult if Secrets could be kept though wouldn't the most important secret be we found aliens that would be like one of the biggest secrets you would ever want to keep like the last thing you want is these [ __ ] is just freaking out because there's aliens I like the movies though where it's just a given they're like yeah well we just got the spaceships from Area 51 yeah done how many movies are that though a lot most movies when they try to depict what it would be like if we were uh attacked it's [ __ ] terrible I like the fact that we started off with saving democracy and well you got drunk along the way and so it shifted to aliens standard big foot's next [ __ ] when are you going looking for him come on you and Dean Kane [ __ ] get up he's got that show on Spike I'll do it has a girl ever squirted on you before are you reading my brain are you part of the NSA is this is this what's happening Brian's drun the NSA has given you all my information it happened recently all right I love you guys wow Brian I love you Champs Brian next time one less drink seriously just one less keep it together all right my diamonds what is next for uh can you remember right now if uh if we we shake your memory what's next uh for your show like what do you got going on that we should know about tomorrow night is Greenland uh the world is sinking and uh modern day slavery David Cho who comes on this show is doing a thing on scrapping uh which uh our metal is going to build China um this is what we talked about last time you were here I believe yeah he's talked up on air next week it's uh they're taking metal from old factories in Detroit and using them to build new factories in China I mean but one one place where it's really an issue is Detroit yeah it it's gangs like like street gang how we heard about it was like Crips and bloods and [ __ ] we're not going to sell crack anymore because there's not enough money we're going to go steal like Copper from old Packard plants in Detroit but like Pittsburgh Cleveland all the Rust Belt
and uh it was a pretty good story until we you know figured out who is buying it which is China it's our largest export $ 11 billion a year the largest export is scrap from America to China yes what's number two I have no idea oranges orang no I don't know but number one by a long way probably number one scrap it's one of those dark things and so Cho finds it out and then hangs out with these Chinese buyers and it's pretty [ __ ] insane it's really good um we talked about genetic passports uh anyway I don't know we have a lot of [ __ ] coming up how many episodes you guys do there year 12 wow uh we're probably going to do 24 actually uh now now does HBO give you any directorial notes nothing zero that's how they do it right yeah they give you money and you go make it I've been trying to get you to come do a a segment with me for a long time yeah but you always want to take me to somewhere that's dangerous and terrible we got to go find that uh let's go to malib looks for bad plastic surgery okay let's you find the story look for you know go anti I want to go do a story with you so okay what do you want to do like you force him but he can't do [ __ ] no no I was actually just looking at him but thinking of the world of of of the nation um like what kind of a show would you want to do I don't know if that means we're done on time no that's just Brian he's drunk uh what kind of I thought I thought you would enjoy the [ __ ] North Pole story you're out of your mind yeah you got me wrong you don't want to go get the six foot chip which by the way you brought up the six foot what chimp chimp yeah I'm scared of that chimp because the chimp's in the middle of the Congo we have friend it's uh you want conie the Castro you go to Cuba and then they [ __ ] they check your underwear drawer for the rest of your life every time you check into a hotel correct you got real problems if you go to Cuba man they look deep up your [ __ ] you can't the last thing you do is go to Cuba and talk about how you're going to Cuba like where will you come with me uh I'll go to Miami with you let's as close as I get to [ __ ] Cuba yeah I'm not a good guy for your show dude I'm telling you I'm a good guy guy for you to come on and talk about your show I can help you
there someday I'm going to convince you to come with me I'm trying not to do less and less things that's my goal my goal is to do less [ __ ] as I get older and just more more [ __ ] where I can just you know what I get more than anything from this show is one time when I got wasted as opposed to now I was like you know what we're just trying to get to the [ __ ] Cove I must get five tweets a day of like I'm trying to get to my Cove I'm trying to get to my Cove I'm just trying to and by the way I just came back from a a long trip doing a a shoot and I spent three days on a boat in the middle of a Cove and I'm like I'm trying to get to my Cove I'm trying to get to my Cove I just kept repeating that cuz I'm just trying to get down there get to the cove and [ __ ] chill the [ __ ] out well I think everybody ultimately has this Ideal Image in their head of some golden retirement or some point in time where everything's going to be still I don't think ever anything's ever still I think you got to you got to try to get there you got to find a balance in the ride itself that's what you got to find you can't wait for this rest stops the rest stops are [ __ ] it's it's not happening but you have more energy and uh like power and in your spine I'm an old man I'm like you know what I'm trying to get to The Cove I know you are and I'm not saying that I'm not I'm not anti- relaxation what I'm saying is that I think if you really did do not nothing if you always sat somewhere and did nothing you would only like it for a few days you're right you're a guy who likes to investigate things and stimulate your mind and you like to be a part of something that's bigger than you there's a reason why the universe chose you for this role I mean that sounds like total hippie [ __ ] no no no but I do want to get to The Cove because you get down there it's because you you probably are a little bit imbalanced you work so much it's probably the The Cove becomes like this ultimate magnet because you're [ __ ] redlining [ __ ] all day long trying to sleep with the knowledge of Liberia's General Buck Naked running around when he' killed how many [ __ ] kids and eating their hearts you know you're [ __ ] hitting the gas all day long man it's you need to go down in Peru get some iasa cleanse
your soul reboot your system you probably seen way too much [ __ ] man I'm I'm in that's why you're down with this Cove idea you want this Cove so bad I'm going to build the cove and you're going to come do you ever consider that everybody has like this sort of crazy role in this weird machine that is life this weird complex algorithm that's the human race yes and do you ever wonder why you're in the position that you're in no but I think that I think that everybody you're right I think that everybody has a sort of role to play in the grand Al algorithm of Life uh my position not really because I don't know about you but I'm I'm not any different than I was 5 years ago when no one listened to me right and you know money is the modern day report card and and I have uh now a lot of money but I I'm actually giving all that away I'm putting it into trust and you know because the you're like well I didn't I didn't actually do it for money I don't actually give a [ __ ] about money and I didn't actually do it for fame because I don't know about you but like when people come up to you and Street and say hey dude [ __ ] awesome you're like I don't I don't you know I I don't know you I don't know anybody I don't know whatever but what I will say is you sit there at some point and go this [ __ ] I spent 40 years turning the other way and saying I don't give a [ __ ] or I'm going to just get drunk or I'm going to drink a beer or I'm going to go get laate or I'm G to you know just I'm [ __ ] do what I do because getting to the day is hard and at a certain point you get a little bit older you have kids for me it was kids and you go yeah I can't do that anymore I got to sit there and say this is [ __ ] you know what they're [ __ ] doing over there in Iraq it's [ __ ] what they're doing in Afghanistan is [ __ ] what they're doing here [ __ ] in the Gulf of Mexico is correx it is [ __ ] what they're and so now I'm like you know what I waited for somebody else to [ __ ] say the [ __ ] and nobody's saying it and I'm not the best person and I'll tell you right now I'm not the best person to be saying this [ __ ] but we have to start saying [ __ ] otherwise we're [ __ ] but you you are the best person I'm not but
you're not because you're you're look no one's the best person but you are as about as good an example as you're going to get because you bridge the gap you're a regular human who lived a regular life who got to a point in your life where something mattered to you much more than it mattered before when you had children and then you took a stand a lot of people would go the other way a lot of people when they there the coward point of view is you get to a point where you have children and then you just want to shut up you just want to be quiet you want to don't don't make a lot of noise here raising our children yeah all of a sudden you're like look you could have had the best life ever just keep doing what you're do and I could have done the same when you have kids you're like what the [ __ ] dude that's when the environment becomes important because you're like okay I'm going to die it's going to be okay yeah there's a c selfishness that like uh that uh a single person will um for sure um it's not even selfishness really it's just thinking about yourself is like a natural thing like the idea that we made being selfish you know like it doesn't mean you don't think about other people as well like so you should be having kids selfish CU I'm selfish because I want my kids to [ __ ] be able to swim in a lake or go outside but is that selfish I mean and is the ultimate goal but isn't the ultimate goal to like see how much you love your kids and say man if the whole world could love each other the way I love my kids we would have no [ __ ] problems any problem we would have would work out but isn't the reality that people don't even do anything when they have no no Strife when they have no no thing they're battling against they don't really [ __ ] strengthen their resolve they don't really get their [ __ ] together it's like it seems like we we almost need resistance in order to get anything done we almost need someone to oppose Us in order to strengthen ourselves to a position where we move forward I agree and I also think that if left to our own devices you're like it goes back to that zero SU game like we were talking earlier about saying what we've gotten to is this real politique zero some game there isn't a zero sum game when you have kids there
isn't just there's a winner and a loser and I kill you and then you are dead you know when you have kids everything becomes like well I won but guess what they don't have any water to drink so I don't know I shifted my whole brain shifted when I had kids cuz was a different guy and then all of a sudden I had kids and I was like actually [ __ ] I already knew that that was [ __ ] what you were doing I knew [ __ ] you know $78,000 hammers were [ __ ] but I used to go $78 [ __ ] and now I'm like no [ __ ] you $78,000 hammers that's [ __ ] I don't want to [ __ ] pay my taxes for that [ __ ] and I just got angry because all the bad [ __ ] all the stuff that you roll your eyes all the [ __ ] you you say you know this is [ __ ] [ __ ] this is stupid we shouldn't be doing this I got serious because then you're like okay it's fine guess what climate change is undeniable the [ __ ] oceans are rising we're you want to have a debate you want to have a [ __ ] War you want to [ __ ] the fact that it's even a debate is a [ __ ] joke and guess what we don't have the time anymore because our kids are [ __ ] so guess what I can't [ __ ] around anymore snow all night [ __ ] wear my fancy jeans and get wasted I got to go out there and fight these [ __ ] because otherwise my kids don't have a [ __ ] Future No and and by the way not my kids everyone's kids did you see that NASA report when they uh they they looked at climate change and a bunch of different factors and they're talking about the future of the human race they made this extrapolation and like we're doomed you know if you talk to most scientists and like by the way real scientists not these dudes in the pay of xon it's it's like a given this is why I get pissed off is because I'm like you know who's who's done a bad job is the scientific community at at messaging the fact that okay if there's a [ __ ] loophole if there's like well it it's this or this within 6% and then everybody else goes well 6% is this and this what you're like hold on a second we are 60 years ahead of our worst case projection the worst case projection of the ipcc 10 years ago we're already 60 years of [ __ ] head 60 years head and I I was talking to the global scientific Community I'm like what the [ __ ] why doesn't anyone know
about this but you guys they're like well it's a given it's not a given with anyone I know most people have no idea no no most people have no idea they just go to work and they hear bad things about the economy but then they hear 150,000 new jobs were created last quarter but you know as what's happening in California NASA B NASA back study says human civilization is headed for irreversible collapse yes according to the new NASA I don't know what that means by NASA back study it sounds very fancy but I'm not exactly sure you understand NASA is like conservative like there's scientists out there that are crazy for sure right like when whenever I talk to uh to uh scientists I try to get the most conservative [ __ ] cuz they you know they're going to come after you right but the thing is is what's happening now is we are on Route for a global cataclysmic environmental catastrophe and everyone agrees to that right everyone right but we're like why aren't we trying to stop it do you think there's any way that something can be done along the way that we never saw coming that could fix the whole thing yes yes what do you think that could be possibly be so this is probably [ __ ] but I was at the Google Zeitgeist conference there was this kid did I tell you the story before he's 13 years old he builds a reactor in his uh uh did I tell you this guy I believe so but it's a great story keep going okay so he blew me away he built a reactor when he was 13 17 he came up with the way to find radioactive way anyway so he came up with this Theory which is true that 90% of UR uranium Isotopes you know 235 Etc which we can't dispose of the majority of their energy is still left in there over 90% so he's like okay we we've come up with these reactors where we can take the old energy rods that we can't even dispose of uh uh uh deplete them and then that will fuel the Earth's energy needs for the next 10,000 years because all of those energy rods from the Soviet Union from us you uranium two 235 we can all do it now maybe not true he's 23 years old right I don't know but if that's even like a 0.00001% true that he can take all the
[ __ ] that we can't even dispose of and power the world with it [ __ ] yeah that's technology right now I don't know if that's true but I'm hoping for some sort of technological solution well I'm hoping along the way he doesn't create something even more [ __ ] up while he's trying to burn that uranium and which might happen [ __ ] I don't know but what I'm hoping is for some tech solution that comes along to say because you know what the other alternative is we're [ __ ] we're [ __ ] yeah I think the tech people are are brightest hope they seem to be self- policing I mean look at the big companies like Google you know like they they they actually you know they spend a lot of money on their employees they kind of had Global Ethics you know I mean when you think yeah you don't think of an evil company at all at least they TR yeah you know you hear that there's some issues with certain censorship in certain countries and things along those lines but when you connect Google you you connect them to the idea of a giant Corporation that's committed to Innovation and they don't seem bad they're not Exon but you know that seems to be like something that you find more of in the tech community and I think it's because you're dealing with some really hyper intelligent human beings and along with that hyperintelligence and that connection to each other they have because the internet I think you see people that have like a better moral company well they're also trying to solve Global Problems by using technology yeah now I don't you know I'm not good at technology but you're awesome at it dude you have vice.com how dare you if I had the ability to figure out the world's energy Problems by depleting old uranium rods yeah [ __ ] yeah it seems like a good move seems like a good move dude we run out of [ __ ] I love you we we never run out of [ __ ] to talk about we just run out I love you too buddy drunk it's fun you're hammered I have to go to bed you should probably go to bed I love you Joe Rogan death squad red B Shane Smith vice.com uh Shane smith3 on Twitter send him some love um send me love on Shane smith3 at Twitter go to vice.com if you've never seen anything start with the story on Liberia what's the Liberia one called I don't know then
