Unknown Speaker (00:00:00.000)

I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys, saying, we are the bad guys.

Unknown Speaker (00:00:28.960)

I'm sick of them posing as the bad guys, saying, we are the bad guys, saying, we are the bad guys.

Unknown Speaker (00:00:57.920)

I love you.

Unknown Speaker (00:00:59.359)

Hey everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight, I'm Dan.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:01.200)

I'm Jordan.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:01.759)

We're a couple dudes, like to sit around, drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:05.120)

Oh indeed we are, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:06.560)

Jordan.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:07.040)

Dan?

Unknown Speaker (00:01:07.359)

Jordan.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:07.760)

Quick question.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:08.159)

What up?

Unknown Speaker (00:01:08.879)

What's your bright spot for today?

Unknown Speaker (00:01:10.239)

Well actually the other night, I got together with a couple of old buddies on Zoom.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:16.159)

Oh did you?

Unknown Speaker (00:01:16.719)

And played some games.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:17.359)

Oh that's cool as shit.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:18.560)

Yeah, I hadn't been, I hadn't tried out the whole Zoom thing yet because I have no reason for like meetings or anything.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:23.760)

Naturally.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:24.480)

And yeah, so me and Riggs and Hogan and Fernandez, some old running buddies from the comedy days, got together and played some Codenames.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:32.000)

That's really cool.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:32.879)

Yeah, it's super fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:34.239)

I'm really glad you did that.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:35.280)

Yeah, it was a great time.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:36.480)

I hope to do a bit more of that in the future because it's just a bunch of just making fun of each other.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:42.000)

Yeah, of course.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:43.120)

And talking shit and playing a fun game.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:45.439)

Like Codenames is really fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:47.280)

Can I have you ever played that?

Unknown Speaker (00:01:48.400)

No, I've never played Codenames.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:49.519)

It's like this, there's a grid of tiles on a board and each of them has a word on them, right?

Unknown Speaker (00:01:55.680)

And so one, you play in pairs.

Unknown Speaker (00:01:58.400)

One person is the spymaster, the other person is the player.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:01.439)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:01.920)

And the spymaster gets to see which are his teams.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:06.239)

There's blue and red teams.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:07.519)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:07.840)

And you get to see which things you have to try and get the other person to guess.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:13.280)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:13.840)

But you want to try and get more than one of them in a turn.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:17.680)

So you'll have rock and bird and you have to try and find a word that will trigger that in the other person's mind.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:25.599)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:25.919)

Try and get them to guess both of them.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:27.599)

Or even you can go for three if you're really ambitious.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:30.560)

So you quite literally need to kill two birds with one stone.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:33.199)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:33.520)

Yeah, gotcha.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:34.000)

It's really fun because it's like, what do you think?

Unknown Speaker (00:02:36.319)

Like it introduces so many arguments.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:40.000)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:41.039)

What were you going for?

Unknown Speaker (00:02:42.000)

It's one of those like taboo a little bit, like that kind of a word association game.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:46.800)

Yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:47.120)

I gotcha.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:47.520)

That's fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:48.000)

I was paired with Hogan and his first clue was Yellowstone.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:54.080)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:54.560)

And he was trying to get me to guess stream and hawk.

Unknown Speaker (00:02:59.039)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:00.000)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:01.120)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:02.000)

That's a little bit ambitious.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:04.560)

That's oblique.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:05.280)

I would say it's a little bit outside.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:07.039)

Yeah, it was a good time.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:08.479)

Good times were had by all.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:09.599)

That sounds great.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:10.319)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:10.639)

I'm glad to hear it.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:11.360)

How about you?

Unknown Speaker (00:03:11.840)

My bright spot is rediscovering my love for the band Kings of Convenience.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:19.039)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:19.280)

They're a Scandinavian Simon and Garfunkel from the early 2000s.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:23.120)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:23.759)

And I relisten to a little bit of their music.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:26.560)

And I remembered whenever I was 17, my friends and I all drove to Detroit because the only

Unknown Speaker (00:03:33.360)

place where we could see them was a rundown pool hall that didn't card on the way there.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:40.000)

Did you hit top speed because you know you're going to die?

Unknown Speaker (00:03:42.319)

No, we did not hit top speed.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:43.919)

We hit 65.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:45.360)

Is the radio the only light on the way there?

Unknown Speaker (00:03:46.960)

Well, it was a very old pickup truck.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:48.719)

When you got to the show, did first you drink, then you smoke?

Unknown Speaker (00:03:51.759)

No, no, no.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:52.479)

First we smoked and then we drank in the car.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:54.560)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:55.120)

But we had a designated driver.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:56.479)

You do know what I'm referencing, right?

Unknown Speaker (00:03:58.080)

I do know what you're referencing.

Unknown Speaker (00:03:59.280)

For fuck's sake, come on.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:01.039)

Of course, for those who are not aware, I'm referencing the Mighty Mighty Boss Tones cover

Unknown Speaker (00:04:05.520)

of the Kiss song Detroit Rock City.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:07.520)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:08.400)

Get up.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:10.080)

But yeah, that was such a fun show because, again, they're Simon and Garfunkel, so it's

Unknown Speaker (00:04:15.680)

just the two guys playing with acoustic guitars.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:18.399)

And then at the end of the show, one of the members is Erland Oye, who's actually a producer

Unknown Speaker (00:04:23.120)

and DJ in his own right.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:24.720)

And they have one dance song and they brought somebody up from the crowd.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:28.079)

There was like 40 people there to play one note on the bass over and over and over again.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:32.879)

And then we just all had a giant dance party on the stage.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:35.199)

That's fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:35.600)

It was incredible.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:36.240)

It was a great time.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:36.879)

It sounds a bit like the experience we had at an Andrew W.K. show once.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:40.240)

Oh, yeah?

Unknown Speaker (00:04:40.480)

The dance party all on stage.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:41.920)

Yeah, that's so fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:42.879)

Kind of thing.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:43.360)

Makes you feel like a part of things.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:44.720)

Yeah, for sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:45.360)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:46.000)

Speaking of being part of things, Jordan, we're part of a podcast that we're about to

Unknown Speaker (00:04:48.879)

record.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:49.360)

That's a great transition.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:50.319)

We haven't seen a transition that great in a while.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:52.399)

That was not great.

Unknown Speaker (00:04:53.600)

So I want to, before we get down to business, I want to explain our lost episode on Wednesday,

Unknown Speaker (00:04:59.600)

which is not really a lost episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:01.040)

There was no episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:02.319)

And the reason is because on Sunday, I want to explain this because I've gotten a lot

Unknown Speaker (00:05:08.160)

of messages from people who are like, I hope you guys are OK.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:10.560)

We're OK.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:10.959)

And we're totally fine.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:11.839)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:12.560)

The situation was on Sunday, last Sunday, I guess it's this Sunday, I don't know if I

Unknown Speaker (00:05:18.079)

can have a say.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:18.319)

Don't worry about it.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:18.879)

Time is in a flat circle.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:20.079)

So on Sunday, you and I were recording a Q&A episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:23.519)

And we noticed that there was water coming in the window.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:26.000)

Coming in hard.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:27.360)

Yes, and I'm not in a garden unit.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:29.120)

So we found that to be troubling.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:33.120)

And it turns out it's also not the first time this has happened.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:36.240)

This happened a couple of months ago.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:37.920)

And the landlords and building managers said that they had fixed it with some tuck pointing

Unknown Speaker (00:05:42.399)

work or whatever outside.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:44.160)

It turns out that it's not the case.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:45.279)

That it is not fixed.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:46.800)

And so there was water coming in.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:48.720)

I called and emailed my building manager.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:52.959)

And they had sent over some people to take a look at it.

Unknown Speaker (00:05:56.240)

And if you look up there, they ended up having to take off the bar that's over my windows.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:00.959)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:01.519)

And it looks beautiful.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:03.040)

Thank you.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:03.920)

As part of dealing with the situation, they had to put in these industrial dehumidifiers

Unknown Speaker (00:06:08.800)

in my room that we record in the studio.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:12.879)

And they're super loud.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:13.839)

There was just no way around taking care of this problem in the way that the building

Unknown Speaker (00:06:18.959)

insisted we do it and still record and get the episode ready and all that.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:24.480)

It was just impossible.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:25.680)

And so unfortunately, we were unable to do that.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:27.680)

But it's resolved now.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:29.519)

And after some real, real drama with a lot of double talk from folks, I am getting out

Unknown Speaker (00:06:41.040)

of this apartment.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:41.839)

I am leaving this damn apartment.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:43.759)

Oh, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:44.399)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:45.279)

Maybe I have really bizarre expectations, but I expect good communication from landlords.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:50.399)

And I also expect third floor apartments not to flood.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:54.319)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:54.800)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:55.120)

That's usually an expectation.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:56.879)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:57.199)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:57.759)

So that is the situation.

Unknown Speaker (00:06:59.600)

But I mean, it's been a horrible week for me in terms of frustration and feeling out

Unknown Speaker (00:07:06.160)

of the loop about my own living space.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:08.240)

It's just awful.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:09.600)

But there's actually a hidden bright spot in it.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:13.279)

And that is that last night, as the machines were blaring and everything was awful, I had

Unknown Speaker (00:07:20.319)

been told that they were coming to take out the machines yesterday.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:23.120)

And they didn't.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:23.839)

Of course not.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:24.480)

And no one told me until five in the afternoon that no one was coming.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:27.519)

It was fucking awful.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:28.560)

What are we going to tell you?

Unknown Speaker (00:07:29.519)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:29.920)

So last night, so loud in my apartment, it's awful.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:34.399)

I think they're coming today, the next day, to take out the machines.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:38.480)

But now I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:39.279)

I don't trust anybody.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:40.959)

And I'm sitting down.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:41.920)

And I'm like, I just got to work in case we're able to record.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:45.759)

I got to get this all together.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:47.680)

And I was sitting there miserable.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:49.120)

And I was like, I love doing this show.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:52.000)

Like in that awful moment.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:54.000)

Aw.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:54.800)

I had a moment of clarity of like, this is so fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:57.439)

I'm preparing this stuff.

Unknown Speaker (00:07:58.720)

Like there was stripping away of some of the shit.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:03.600)

And I felt really grateful to be doing this and thankful for the people who make it possible.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:11.279)

That's awesome.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:11.920)

And people who listen.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:12.879)

And it was great.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:15.360)

In that dark moment, the fact that it's like, well, I'm preparing to do a show I really

Unknown Speaker (00:08:19.680)

enjoy doing.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:20.399)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:20.720)

And there's some really funny stuff that we're going to be able to talk about.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:24.399)

And people enjoy it.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:25.680)

Like it pierced through the misery.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:30.079)

Adversity can help provide clarity at times.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:32.879)

Perhaps that's the only way to get clarity.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:34.960)

There's no atheists in foxholes.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:36.720)

And there's no ungrateful people with giant dehumidifiers in their room.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:40.000)

That's fair.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:40.720)

That's fair.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:42.799)

So Jordan, in that spirit, let's take a moment to say thank you to the folks who have signed

Unknown Speaker (00:08:47.039)

up and are supporting the show.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:48.480)

So first, we got Dave.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:49.840)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:50.399)

You're now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:51.440)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:52.559)

Thanks, Dave.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:53.200)

Thank you, Dave.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:53.759)

Next, I don't know if this is Benoit or Benoit.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:56.559)

I'm not sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:57.279)

I don't know why it would be Benoit.

Unknown Speaker (00:08:58.559)

Is that an actual name?

Unknown Speaker (00:08:59.200)

I've never heard that before.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:00.240)

Probably Benoit.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:01.039)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:01.600)

You are now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:02.639)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:03.759)

Thank you.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:04.399)

Benoit balls.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:05.440)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:06.159)

Next, Anna Kidd.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:07.279)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:08.000)

You're now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:08.960)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:10.159)

Thanks, Anna Kidd.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:11.120)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:11.679)

And this next one, I actually bumped up.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:14.000)

It's very recent, but I put it to the front of the list because of a parenthetical in

Unknown Speaker (00:09:20.000)

it.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:20.080)

And that is a time sensitive.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:21.519)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:21.919)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:22.639)

Call Terry Nichols.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:23.840)

And then in parentheses, if this comes out too far from the Bill Cooper episode, it won't

Unknown Speaker (00:09:27.840)

be funny.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:29.440)

You're now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:30.480)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:31.759)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:32.320)

Call Terry Nichols.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:33.120)

If this comes out too far from the Bill Cooper episode, it won't be funny.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:35.519)

Yes, thank you very much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:36.399)

That's an accurate point you made.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:38.480)

Thank you.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:38.879)

Next, Essa.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:39.919)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:40.559)

You're now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:41.600)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:42.639)

Thanks, Essa.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:43.440)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:44.080)

Next, Nahal.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:46.480)

Nahal, I believe.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:47.759)

N-J-A-L.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:48.720)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:49.279)

You're now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:50.320)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:51.360)

Thank you, Nahal.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:52.320)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:53.360)

And Lisa.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:54.399)

Thank you so much.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:54.960)

You're now a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:56.000)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:57.120)

Thanks, Lisa.

Unknown Speaker (00:09:58.399)

And finally, I got to give a very special shout out to somebody who's supporting on

Unknown Speaker (00:10:01.919)

a level just unfathomably supportive and generous.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:06.480)

And we appreciate their support so very much that I feel we need to install them into the

Unknown Speaker (00:10:12.080)

realm of the Raptor Princess.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:13.840)

Oh, we got a new Raptor Princess?

Unknown Speaker (00:10:15.279)

Indeed.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:15.679)

Oh, shit.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:16.320)

So thank you so very much, Anthony H. You are now a Raptor Princess.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:20.399)

I'm a policy wonk.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:21.519)

Four stars.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:22.399)

Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:24.480)

I'll barbecue your ass.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:26.000)

It's over for humanity.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:27.440)

You're a beautiful soul.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:28.399)

They're coming for your balls.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:30.399)

Well, I piss all over your god.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:33.279)

Very few people crap in the pool unless they're babies.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:35.840)

I piss all over the state.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:37.360)

Make it a practice of calling people pieces of garbage.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:40.000)

When they are.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:40.960)

Coming as you see fit.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:43.360)

Thank you so much, Anthony H. We appreciate it very much.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:46.240)

Yes, thank you very much, Anthony H.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:47.759)

If you're out there listening, you're thinking, hey, I enjoy the show.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:49.519)

I'd like to support these gents too.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:50.639)

You can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com,

Unknown Speaker (00:10:52.799)

clicking the button that says support the show.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:54.399)

We would appreciate it.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:55.120)

Yes, it would be very helpful.

Unknown Speaker (00:10:56.240)

Or if you'd like to take that generosity and send it to a local charity in your area that

Unknown Speaker (00:11:00.159)

helps people who are in need, that would be wonderful as well.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:02.639)

We would appreciate that also.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:04.080)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:04.399)

So, Jordan, today we are going over the May 18th through 21st episodes of the Alex Jones

Unknown Speaker (00:11:10.240)

show.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:10.559)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:11.360)

But it's a little bit of a misnomer.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:14.879)

It's a little Mark Dicey?

Unknown Speaker (00:11:16.639)

Alex kind of disappears a whole bunch.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:18.320)

OK, well, that's fair.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:19.279)

So most of these shows are incomplete in terms of Alex's attendance record.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:26.159)

He's truant.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:26.960)

OK.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:27.679)

So here's an out of context drop from today's show.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:30.000)

You're not sticking your metal penis in me.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:34.080)

So this is how he's contextualizing vaccines now.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:37.279)

I think that's great.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:38.159)

I think you should.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:38.720)

Wait, what?

Unknown Speaker (00:11:39.120)

That's a vaccine?

Unknown Speaker (00:11:40.000)

No, never mind.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:40.879)

Vaccine is a metal penis change.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:42.960)

Change my opinion.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:43.679)

Bill Gates and Alan Dershowitz want to stick in.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:45.600)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:45.919)

Well, that's evocative.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:47.039)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:47.679)

So here is how Alex starts off the show on May 18th.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:51.360)

And I should be honest, this is a preoccupation for most of the episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:56.639)

It goes on quite a bit.

Unknown Speaker (00:11:57.519)

This seems to be one of his biggest concerns.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:01.600)

We've blown it up.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:02.399)

We're going to show you some shots of that coming up in the last segment of this hour.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:07.679)

And it is an upside down cross, clear as day, with a ring of rubies around it like a corona.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:16.159)

And I actually said, you know, I've seen that symbol before.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:19.759)

And I went and did some research and I sent it over to the producer this morning.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:22.879)

But that producer is off today.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:24.320)

So I didn't see it in my full stack, but I'm going to resubmit to the new producer.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:27.679)

And I'm going to show you actually where that symbol comes from.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:29.840)

I said, where have I seen an upside down cross with a red corona around it?

Unknown Speaker (00:12:35.519)

And where I thought I'd seen, I'd seen a very horrible sign.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:40.639)

The Da Vinci Code?

Unknown Speaker (00:12:42.080)

Death of the Sun.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:44.159)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:44.799)

OK, so apparently Melinda Gates about a week prior had been on Good Morning America or

Unknown Speaker (00:12:50.480)

something and she was wearing an upside down cross.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:52.799)

And Alex is really pissed off about it.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:54.639)

Of course, of course.

Unknown Speaker (00:12:55.519)

This is part of a really interesting symbology lecture that Alex thinks he's doing on this

Unknown Speaker (00:13:02.320)

episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:02.799)

OK, sure, it's going to go off the rails in a number of directions.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:06.159)

He's taken us into Umberto Eco territory.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:08.480)

That's what we're dealing with.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:09.440)

OK, all right.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:10.080)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:10.559)

So, Alex, you know, he's seen this picture of Melinda Gates with this jewelry.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:15.919)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:16.799)

Fuck her.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:17.759)

Of course.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:18.240)

But it's not just Alex saying that.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:19.840)

He's read the room.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:21.279)

There is a firestorm of galactic proportions going on, of truly colossal proportions,

Unknown Speaker (00:13:31.039)

gigantor proportions that every video about Bill Gates on YouTube is ninety nine percent

Unknown Speaker (00:13:40.399)

of not one hundred percent.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:42.080)

I read probably three hundred comments this morning about his wife on a Today program

Unknown Speaker (00:13:46.639)

where she's wearing the upside down cross.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:48.639)

And I could not find one person supporting her.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:51.679)

Who cares?

Unknown Speaker (00:13:53.440)

Why are you spending your time reading YouTube comments?

Unknown Speaker (00:13:55.600)

Do I need to support her?

Unknown Speaker (00:13:57.279)

Does anyone need to support her?

Unknown Speaker (00:13:58.799)

I don't care.

Unknown Speaker (00:13:59.519)

Why would I?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:00.320)

But what does he think of me?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:02.399)

Like YouTube comments mean anything.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:04.000)

I mean, they're very they're very mean towards me.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:07.840)

So they're generally not a good indication of consensus opinion.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:14.639)

But I mean, if that's the kind of journalistic level he wants to bring to this.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:18.399)

Great.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:18.799)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:19.279)

So YouTube comments galactic importance.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:22.639)

So across the Milky Way, across every man, this upside down cross, is it actually an

Unknown Speaker (00:14:29.600)

upside down cross?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:30.399)

We'll get to that.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:30.960)

It's just jewelry, right?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:31.919)

We'll get to that.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:32.480)

Is it an arrow pointing downward?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:34.000)

How does he feel about Flavor Flav's clock?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:35.759)

What are we doing here?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:36.639)

It's a symbol of entropy.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:40.000)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:40.320)

Doesn't the clock look like an upside down cross?

Unknown Speaker (00:14:42.639)

The clock is secretly going backwards.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:45.519)

So, yeah, we'll get back to this, because like I said, he touches on this way too much.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:50.960)

It is a preoccupation and obsession.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:53.919)

Weird.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:54.320)

It's very weird.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:54.879)

Weird.

Unknown Speaker (00:14:55.440)

So in addition to complaining about jewelry, Alex has a new study that he's found that

Unknown Speaker (00:15:01.360)

he wants to talk about that proves something or other about the coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:05.600)

Austrian study finds sign of human intervention in coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:12.240)

And that is a Infowars.com report that links to the mainline Australian news and university.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:20.639)

And they talk about the gain of function and the HIV delivery system added on to the coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:26.480)

A study led by Nicole Petrovinski, a vaccine researcher at Flinders University, the scientist

Unknown Speaker (00:15:34.240)

and his team discovered that the coronavirus is optimized for penetration to human cells

Unknown Speaker (00:15:40.879)

rather than animal cells, which means that the theory that it emerged from an animal

Unknown Speaker (00:15:44.960)

market and jump to the humans is naturally unlikely.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:48.799)

First of all, Alex can't seem to remember if this is from Austria or Australia, which

Unknown Speaker (00:15:53.600)

isn't good.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:54.320)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:55.039)

And so here's a couple of quotes from an article in The Week about this study.

Unknown Speaker (00:15:59.120)

Quote, the study observed a remarkable coincidence or a sign of human intervention in the creation

Unknown Speaker (00:16:04.320)

of the virus.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:05.200)

So right there, the result of the study is that it could be a remarkable coincidence.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:08.639)

Right, right, right.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:09.360)

This does not sound like proof of anything.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:11.600)

I would argue that a global pandemic is also a remarkable coincidence.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:15.519)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:16.399)

Here's another quote.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:17.919)

Quote, however, the study led by Nikolai Petrovski, which Alex bungled, professor of medicine

Unknown Speaker (00:16:24.080)

at Flinders University, has not yet been peer reviewed and remains inconclusive.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:28.159)

Well, there's a problem there.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:29.200)

It's another one of these.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:30.639)

Great.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:31.039)

I mean, I look forward to some of these conclusions being challenged and looked at in the peer

Unknown Speaker (00:16:36.080)

review process.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:37.200)

And then it'll be fun to have Alex ignore that and pretend that the globalists are pressuring

Unknown Speaker (00:16:41.200)

them to retract it or something.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:42.559)

Yeah, that's not going to stop.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:43.679)

This study is not definitive, even in the claims that Alex is pretending that it's making.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:47.679)

And it's not been peer reviewed yet.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:49.039)

So let's pump the damn brakes.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:50.879)

Some of the stuff he's saying is just completely made up, like the stuff about this study involving

Unknown Speaker (00:16:54.799)

his HIV narratives, which is nowhere in the study.

Unknown Speaker (00:16:57.919)

Also, just because it's fun, the researcher who led the study, Petrovski, said in a statement,

Unknown Speaker (00:17:03.360)

quote, these are generally easily recognizable and hence clear signatures of human intervention

Unknown Speaker (00:17:08.240)

in the creation of the virus.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:09.680)

The fact that these artificial inserts are not present has been interpreted by some to

Unknown Speaker (00:17:13.759)

mean this virus is not the result of human manipulation.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:16.400)

So the guy who authored the study said because certain things are not present, that would

Unknown Speaker (00:17:24.480)

be that would point directly towards it not being human intervention.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:28.799)

The lack of presence of these artificial inserts lead people to believe that it's not the result

Unknown Speaker (00:17:34.880)

of human manipulation.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:35.920)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:36.559)

Now, the problem with that is that earlier on this very episode, Alex was rambling about

Unknown Speaker (00:17:41.279)

inserts.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:42.000)

It does kind of seem like that.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:42.799)

Oh, you could see the scars on the DNA.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:44.799)

Everybody could see it.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:45.839)

The scars on the DNA.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:47.359)

What are we doing?

Unknown Speaker (00:17:48.079)

Yeah, that's how Alex puts it.

Unknown Speaker (00:17:50.000)

So you have this guy, there's Nikolai Petrovski, who put out this study, who is very explicitly

Unknown Speaker (00:17:55.680)

saying that there is not signs of artificial inserts, which contradicts Alex's other narratives.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:01.279)

So if he wants to choose one of these things to push, he's going to have to choose one

Unknown Speaker (00:18:05.440)

or the other.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:06.000)

They're contradictory.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:07.359)

Keanu Reeves said that chicks dig DNA scars, I believe.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:10.720)

That's what he said.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:11.519)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:12.019)

So this study is going to probably become a big piece of Alex's stuff, and he's still

Unknown Speaker (00:18:17.539)

pushing that Indian study that got retracted from way back.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:20.579)

Yeah, why not?

Unknown Speaker (00:18:21.299)

And now Alex has just made up a story about Bill Gates being responsible for it getting

Unknown Speaker (00:18:25.140)

retracted.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:25.619)

Of course.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:26.339)

Indians scientists discover coronavirus engineered with HIV's AIDS-like insertions.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:30.339)

And the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation threatened their money, threatened India,

Unknown Speaker (00:18:42.420)

who's, by the way, banned their foundation, but they still have money there through front

Unknown Speaker (00:18:45.140)

groups, and told them that you better withdraw that paper.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:54.420)

So they withdrew that paper.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:56.019)

Better withdraw that paper.

Unknown Speaker (00:18:57.220)

They withdrew that paper, but said, we're not withdrawing it for cause.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:01.299)

It's on hold while we challenge those challenging it to show us any proof.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:06.579)

No one's challenged it.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:07.619)

Alex is just making all of that up.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:09.380)

Wow.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:09.619)

He is just making all of that up.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:11.859)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:12.420)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:12.980)

That's so awesome.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:14.180)

Get to the ATM and withdraw that paper, baby.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:17.059)

He is just like, it's fascinating how much his mind just allows himself to be like, oh,

Unknown Speaker (00:19:24.740)

this is a thought I had.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:25.779)

That sounds great.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:26.980)

That's proof of things.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:28.660)

That's a good thought I had.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:29.700)

Fucking weirdo.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:30.900)

Better tell people that's true.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:32.180)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:32.579)

So Alex gets to talking about some news that has been put out by the Health and Human Services

Unknown Speaker (00:19:38.180)

Department.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:38.819)

And I think it's interesting how, in this situation, he sort of like, you know, covers

Unknown Speaker (00:19:44.740)

half of it, half of the news.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:46.660)

That sounds right.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:47.380)

And now the NIH has had to admit, it's up on Infowars.com, Health and Human Services

Unknown Speaker (00:19:53.859)

Secretary, no coronavirus spikes in reopened areas, only closed areas.

Unknown Speaker (00:19:58.819)

So it's all good and well for him to be reading this headline from Reuters.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:02.259)

But I should also probably read you the first paragraph of the article.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:05.539)

I don't see any need for a whole paragraph.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:07.619)

Quote, US authorities are not yet seeing spikes and coronavirus cases in places that are reopening,

Unknown Speaker (00:20:12.740)

but it was still too early to determine such trends, Health Secretary Alex Azar said on

Unknown Speaker (00:20:18.339)

Sunday.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:19.380)

Given the progression of how the virus has seemed to spread and given the fact that we're

Unknown Speaker (00:20:22.500)

still not in a good place with on-demand testing, you wouldn't see a spike this quickly.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:26.740)

We're going to have to wait and see what happens down the road.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:29.059)

And for Alex to report the first part of the story while ignoring the part where Azar says

Unknown Speaker (00:20:32.660)

it's too early to say anything definitive is journalistic malpractice.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:36.019)

I mean, that's lying.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:37.299)

That's the part you don't want to talk about, though.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:39.299)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:39.539)

You know, I mean, you don't want to say hold out for results of something.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:43.700)

Tell me what the truth is now.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:45.380)

That's lying.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:46.019)

Yeah, it's definitely lying.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:47.059)

Dan, I agree with you.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:48.259)

Thank you, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:50.660)

I appreciate it.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:51.380)

Get the fuck out of here.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:54.180)

I convinced him that he's a son of a bitch.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:56.339)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:20:56.660)

You're going to abuse that clip, aren't you?

Unknown Speaker (00:20:58.259)

Probably.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:03.220)

Now I can't win any argument.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:04.900)

It's two to one every single time.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:07.059)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:08.579)

So in this next clip, Alex talks about this lab in Seattle that the Gates is running.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:14.420)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:14.740)

That the FDA shut down.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:16.819)

A test, by the way, put up a billable in the Gates that has all these false positives.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:20.099)

That's now been confirmed.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:21.460)

The FDA just shut down their big Seattle lab that's been putting out the fake test, and

Unknown Speaker (00:21:26.740)

it was confirmed.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:27.299)

They were just completely fake.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:28.500)

Everyone is infected that has it.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:31.059)

So this is about coronavirus tests all being positive.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:35.539)

So this is an interesting story because it's one of those fun instances where Alex should

Unknown Speaker (00:21:39.859)

be reporting this story in the complete opposite based on everything he stands for.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:44.980)

There's no indication that this lab in Seattle was putting out tests to give 100% false

Unknown Speaker (00:21:48.980)

positives or even any higher false positive rate than any other test.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:52.740)

It was heavily funded by Gates, though, so Alex gets a little pat on the head for not

Unknown Speaker (00:21:56.259)

making that part up.

Unknown Speaker (00:21:57.940)

This was a lab at the University of Washington, which was running a program called the Seattle

Unknown Speaker (00:22:01.859)

Coronavirus Assessment Network.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:04.019)

Basically, what they did was send out tests to whoever wanted them.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:06.980)

People swabbed themselves and sent the sample back to be processed.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:10.259)

The reasoning was that many people who were sick were likely not sick enough to go to

Unknown Speaker (00:22:14.259)

a doctor, and this would allow people to have a better sense of their situation.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:17.539)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:18.980)

The lab was told early on that they needed an emergency use authorization from the state

Unknown Speaker (00:22:23.380)

in order to run a program like this where they would give test results to people who

Unknown Speaker (00:22:26.819)

submit for testing.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:28.099)

In March, the state of Washington gave them approval, but now the FDA is saying they need

Unknown Speaker (00:22:32.099)

federal approval as well.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:34.339)

I'm not sure where I land on this.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:35.859)

I assume there's probably some benefit to nationally coordinated responses, which make

Unknown Speaker (00:22:39.460)

the needing federal approval make sense.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:41.539)

I'm not sure I understand all the details, so I'm going to stop short of having a solid

Unknown Speaker (00:22:44.740)

position.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:45.619)

However, Alex Jones is Mr. State's rights.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:48.980)

He absolutely should not be into this lab being shut down by the federal government

Unknown Speaker (00:22:52.420)

when the state government already approved what they're doing.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:54.980)

His beliefs and pretend principles are meaningless.

Unknown Speaker (00:22:58.900)

Anyway, Alex's spinelessness aside, this is just a temporary hold that the lab has until

Unknown Speaker (00:23:02.900)

they can get some details ironed out about the authorization to release results to people.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:07.700)

Alex is completely making up details of the story to make it sound more nefarious because

Unknown Speaker (00:23:11.779)

he's a liar.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:12.420)

It's really just about the clearance to give people results as opposed to like, oh,

Unknown Speaker (00:23:18.900)

everything is positive.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:20.099)

Everything's all false positive.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:21.460)

Just making that shit up.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:22.900)

People need to start realizing the situation here.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:26.259)

When the federal government is doing whatever they want and saying, okay, well, then fucking

Unknown Speaker (00:23:30.660)

sue me about it, now is not the time to pretend that you have to follow anybody's rules.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:35.460)

Tell them to fucking sue you.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:36.660)

That's kind of the situation.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:39.460)

At this point, crime is legal.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:41.460)

That's what I'm advocating.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:43.779)

Everyone commit every crime they can think of right now.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:48.740)

Maybe I shouldn't do that.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:50.180)

Is that a bad idea?

Unknown Speaker (00:23:50.900)

Yeah, it's a bad idea.

Unknown Speaker (00:23:51.700)

Why would that be?

Unknown Speaker (00:23:55.539)

That last clip was Alex trying desperately to demonize Bill Gates because that's what

Unknown Speaker (00:24:01.299)

he does.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:02.099)

And in this next clip, he does that kind of embarrassingly.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:04.980)

And it's also pretty funny.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:06.900)

Oh, but oh, the Crips are a scary MS-13.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:13.859)

Oh, they do devil rituals and kill little kids sometimes.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:17.220)

I'd like to flash back to the months and months of coverage.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:20.579)

Alex was yelling about MS-13.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:22.420)

He's a really big deal for him for a long time.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:25.539)

Trying to make everybody so scared of them.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:28.500)

Oh my, they're the hardest dudes.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:31.940)

But Bill Gates is wearing a pink sweater.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:34.420)

And he acts effeminate.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:37.859)

That's all an act.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:39.460)

Ladies and gentlemen, behind the scenes, Bill Gates is literally hopping around like a gremlin.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:43.539)

I know people that know him.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:44.420)

He's going, get that work done now.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:47.380)

18 hours a day.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:48.180)

He used to take everything over.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:49.140)

He's just like, well, we got one of the most evil ones ever here.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:52.819)

He was a totally satanic demon by age 10, reportedly.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:56.180)

Reportedly.

Unknown Speaker (00:24:59.220)

I'd like to see the report.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:00.099)

Who reported that? Is there an AP report on nine-year-old demon?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:04.900)

What are we going to do?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:05.779)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:06.259)

Ten-year-old Bill Gates already a demonic, hopping around in my head.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:12.259)

Which was your favorite gremlin from Gremlins 2?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:14.819)

I don't remember.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:15.460)

I'm going to go with Spider Gremlin.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:16.740)

That one was my favorite one.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:18.099)

Spider Leadership Gremlin.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:19.220)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:20.180)

This is so ridiculous.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:22.500)

It's amazing.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:23.539)

Reportedly.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:24.420)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:24.819)

Reportedly.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:25.460)

That's the part that makes it hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:26.980)

He's reportedly a Satanist by 10.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:30.420)

Reportedly.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:30.980)

Reportedly.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:33.140)

What does that word even mean anymore?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:35.299)

I think on the one hand, you could look at it as a way to not get sued.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:39.700)

But then on the other hand, I think it's Alex trying to pretend there's some credible backing.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:44.019)

Some source?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:44.339)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:44.819)

Right?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:45.380)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:45.779)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:46.339)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:48.099)

Who's doing nine-year-old surveys of whether or not people are demons yet?

Unknown Speaker (00:25:52.660)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:53.059)

That's a good job for us.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:55.059)

That's ridiculous.

Unknown Speaker (00:25:55.700)

So, you know, if you were a demon at nine, you would obviously grow up to marry someone

Unknown Speaker (00:26:02.579)

who would wear an upside down cross on TV.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:04.900)

I would assume you were betrothed to them way before.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:07.539)

Probably.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:08.099)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:08.259)

That's the only thing that makes sense.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:09.380)

Alex gets to talking more about this cross.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:11.460)

Of course.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:12.259)

Why would you throw an upside down cross on people's face like that?

Unknown Speaker (00:26:19.460)

It's called lesser magic.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:21.299)

Is it?

Unknown Speaker (00:26:21.539)

It's an accounting coup.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:22.819)

Is it?

Unknown Speaker (00:26:23.220)

The occultists believe that if you show it in a model first and show people they don't

Unknown Speaker (00:26:28.420)

understand what's happening, that you get even more power over them when you actually

Unknown Speaker (00:26:32.980)

carry out the act.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:34.259)

So Alex spends a lot of time in this episode complaining about Melinda Gates wearing this

Unknown Speaker (00:26:38.500)

upside down cross necklace, which he's determined is satanic and lesser magic.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:42.099)

Of course.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:42.740)

In that clip, Alex asks why someone would wear an upside down cross.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:45.619)

So I figured I might help him understand that.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:47.299)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:47.859)

Maybe they're Catholic.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:48.819)

The upside down cross is the symbol of Saint Peter, who is the forefather of the Pope.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:53.619)

As the story goes, Peter was crucified upside down because he was too humble to be killed

Unknown Speaker (00:26:58.019)

in the same manner as Jesus.

Unknown Speaker (00:26:59.700)

And thus the upside down cross became his symbol, an important one for the Catholic

Unknown Speaker (00:27:04.019)

Church.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:04.900)

There is no satanic route to the upside down cross in real life.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:08.420)

That's just something for movies and imagery that's used by like metal and punk bands.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:12.819)

The fact that Alex goes on and on about this and never once mentions the cross of Saint

Unknown Speaker (00:27:16.819)

Peter really leads me to believe that he has very little familiarity with Christianity.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:21.940)

I have been to church in years and I know that stuff.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:25.140)

Legitimately, everything else he talks about comes from movies.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:28.019)

So why shouldn't we be surprised to learn that a lot of these religious ideas do too?

Unknown Speaker (00:27:32.099)

Yeah, totally.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:32.900)

Also, in case you're curious, Melinda Gates is very public about her Catholic faith.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:37.539)

Yeah, brought up some great points.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:38.900)

Thank you, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:39.539)

All right, we're going to have to end the show.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:45.859)

We're going to have to end the show when this is going down.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:50.019)

Fuck you.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:50.740)

This is the best.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:53.380)

We're one step away from morning zoo crew.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:57.140)

You've got a soundboard now.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:58.500)

You're just not quite.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:59.299)

Not quite.

Unknown Speaker (00:27:59.940)

I still need to find I need to get an actual soundboard as opposed to just scrolling around

Unknown Speaker (00:28:05.140)

on iTunes.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:05.779)

Oh, no.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:07.220)

So, yeah, I mean, she's Catholic.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:08.500)

It's a symbol of the Catholic Church.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:10.339)

This is bullshit.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:11.539)

Well, so this leads into Alex talking about other symbols because he knows a lot.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:17.059)

Are we really doing are we really doing better?

Unknown Speaker (00:28:19.779)

Believe the peace symbol is at least a ten thousand year old north symbol for death.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:27.619)

Now, by itself, it means death with a circle around it.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:32.500)

It means total death.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:33.779)

Ah, a ritual of death, a covenant of death.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:41.380)

They don't tell you that on WikiLeaks, though, ladies and gentlemen.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:44.099)

Why would they?

Unknown Speaker (00:28:44.819)

Wikipedia.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:45.380)

Excuse me.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:46.980)

Why would they tell you that this is a symbol of total death to tree that's dead?

Unknown Speaker (00:28:52.819)

And it's a circle.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:53.460)

It means complete.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:54.660)

The circle is now complete.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:56.579)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:28:57.460)

The symbol was created by a Christian pacifist artist named Gerald Holtam back in nineteen

Unknown Speaker (00:29:02.099)

fifty eight ten thousand years ago.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:05.140)

His inspiration for the symbol was twofold, as discussed in a profile on him in the week.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:09.539)

Part of the inspiration was the naval semaphore flags.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:13.059)

The flag code for N and D combined to form the peace sign, which was meant to stand for

Unknown Speaker (00:29:17.619)

nuclear disarmament.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:19.299)

The other part was, quote, I was in despair, deep despair.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:22.819)

I drew myself the representative of an individual in despair with hands, palms outstretched

Unknown Speaker (00:29:28.740)

outwards and downwards in the manner of Goya's peasant before the firing squad.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:33.539)

I formalized the drawing into a line and put a circle around it.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:36.660)

It was ridiculous at first and such a puny thing.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:40.019)

The symbol was adopted by the anti-war protesters and hippies, and we all know where it went

Unknown Speaker (00:29:43.859)

from there.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:44.740)

The most popular north symbol for death is the Valknut, which is three triangles intersecting,

Unknown Speaker (00:29:49.619)

and it literally looks nothing like a peace sign.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:52.099)

Alex is probably thinking of Yggdrasil, which is the north symbol that involves a tree in

Unknown Speaker (00:29:56.500)

a circle.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:57.299)

This does not symbolize death, however.

Unknown Speaker (00:29:59.140)

It symbolizes the connection of all things, and it's sometimes called the tree of life.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:03.700)

Also, it doesn't really look like a peace symbol.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:05.940)

Honestly, this is just kind of sad.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:07.539)

Alex is just making shit up, which is nothing new, but he's being a stupid blowhard about

Unknown Speaker (00:30:12.579)

symbology.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:13.299)

It's just the most pathetic direction to take your fake expertise in.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:16.579)

Even if you're right, you've not proven anything.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:18.900)

Do you know the worst?

Unknown Speaker (00:30:20.019)

And he's not right.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:20.900)

No, no, no, the worst one.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:22.420)

The worst one, the most demonic one is when Kellogg's co-opted a 10,000-year-old symbol

Unknown Speaker (00:30:31.220)

of Captain Crunch, and that obviously symbolizes the destruction of one's upper mouth.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:38.420)

That was a Phoenician symbol, right?

Unknown Speaker (00:30:39.859)

Yeah, exactly.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:40.980)

That ruins your gums.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:42.180)

That's the main issue that I have with Captain Crunch.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:44.660)

There's an ancient Phoenician text that warns you against the cotton candy version of Captain

Unknown Speaker (00:30:50.339)

Crunch, though.

Unknown Speaker (00:30:50.980)

Don't try the Crunch Berries!

Unknown Speaker (00:30:54.500)

So we get to this next clip, and Alex, I mean, he's just got a lot of news to get to.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:00.579)

There's a lot of news I want to get to here, and a lot of things I want to cover.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:06.420)

And we're going to be doing that.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:08.019)

Are we?

Unknown Speaker (00:31:10.740)

Are we, buddy?

Unknown Speaker (00:31:13.460)

Bud.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:14.819)

Buddy.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:17.779)

Buddy.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:18.099)

I don't know, but we'll get to it.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:19.059)

There we go.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:21.940)

I have to go find the right clubs.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:26.099)

That's why I'm going to take off a few days this week, and I'm going to be up here working

Unknown Speaker (00:31:29.700)

on this Bill Gates film I need to make, just so I can get the clubs signed over there and

Unknown Speaker (00:31:35.539)

just get the damn clubs and just do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:37.619)

Super excited for this alleged Bill Gates documentary.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:40.980)

Just got to get the clips that are there and just do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:43.380)

I just got to fucking see about that.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:46.819)

Look forward to our next Endgame episode coming out.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:49.700)

Once Alex releases this documentary about Bill Gates, he's never going to release.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:54.900)

Very excited.

Unknown Speaker (00:31:55.779)

I am going to spend the time on my show right now that I could be using to get the news

Unknown Speaker (00:32:00.180)

out to you by just telling you that there will be a documentary that I am thinking about

Unknown Speaker (00:32:04.819)

doing but have not done yet and probably won't ever do.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:07.539)

And I'm going to leave the show.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:09.140)

I'm going to get out.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:09.859)

I got to get out of here.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:10.579)

I got to work on this documentary.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:11.859)

I got to find the clips that I don't know where they are, and I can't find, and I don't

Unknown Speaker (00:32:16.099)

want to do this documentary.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:16.740)

You got a great production staff going.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:18.819)

It's really good.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:19.299)

You have this conversation so regularly on air.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:21.619)

Has he tried CCing all of his producers on the e-mails?

Unknown Speaker (00:32:25.140)

Might help.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:26.660)

So Alex needs, you know, he needs to get to this news, though.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:30.900)

There's so much news.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:32.819)

About the upside down cross.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:34.099)

Wow.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:34.579)

It turns out that the first piece of news is about himself, because of course it is.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:40.420)

Of course it is.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:40.900)

There were a bunch of articles Thursday and Friday about myself and a Secret Service investigation.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:46.579)

And I found it on Saturday.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:49.619)

No big deal.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:51.539)

It's just that.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:53.380)

I have to remember every day to type my name in and then see what the stuff is.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:56.900)

If not, my house could burn down.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:58.500)

I wouldn't know about it.

Unknown Speaker (00:32:59.220)

I mean, hell, Austin can blow up.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:02.579)

You know, we wouldn't probably report on it.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:04.259)

That's just how it is.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:05.619)

And that's good because we're not pretentious globalists around here.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:08.420)

What?

Unknown Speaker (00:33:08.660)

This was a pretty big story and it ties into a bunch of stuff.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:11.700)

So who knows?

Unknown Speaker (00:33:12.259)

I might get to that and I might get to a couple other important things here.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:16.099)

Who knows?

Unknown Speaker (00:33:16.660)

Probably not.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:21.859)

We had a big sale we ran last week.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:24.099)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:25.779)

This guy is a mess.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:27.220)

Listen, I'm just not going to do my job.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:30.579)

I'm not going to do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:31.299)

I'm just not going to do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:32.099)

But I am going to do my real job, which is selling this fucking product.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:34.740)

Well, I got to do my real job.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:36.019)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:37.779)

So Alex hinted there that he's going to take some time off.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:40.740)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:41.140)

And so he gets back to that here in this next clip.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:44.579)

This is so epic.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:46.180)

What's going on that I'm going to take some days off.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:50.980)

In fact, I was going to take off Wednesday.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:52.180)

I'm taking off tomorrow now.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:53.220)

I already told the crew it's because.

Unknown Speaker (00:33:59.380)

Because what?

Unknown Speaker (00:33:59.859)

I got to go in for a pit stop.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:01.220)

I got to go lay out the sun.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:02.740)

I got to go hike.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:03.380)

I got to spend time with my children.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:04.660)

And I got to lock my cell phone up and just not do any work.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:08.420)

I was going to come in and work on the film just because you can't drag me away.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:12.980)

But I'm not going to even do that now.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:14.579)

Spoiler alert.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:16.099)

He does not follow through with any of this.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:18.900)

His earlier statement was, I'm going to not be here to work on that.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:23.539)

And now he's not even going to work on that.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:25.219)

Spoiler alert.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:25.860)

I don't think any of this happens.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:27.699)

Alex does not do his show regularly for most of the week, but he also is there.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:32.980)

So I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:33.780)

What are we doing?

Unknown Speaker (00:34:34.739)

I got to take time off to tan.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:36.420)

Oh, I love it.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:37.539)

I love it.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:38.019)

You failure.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:39.139)

So Alex is like, I got to fucking get out of here, man.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:41.940)

I don't know. I don't want to do this.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:43.300)

This is senioritis.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:44.420)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:44.980)

And he gets like, this is where everything falls apart.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:48.500)

Because look, to his credit, Alex is not making up what he ends up yelling about.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:53.219)

And that is the Alan Dershowitz did an interview where he said that vaccines should be mandatory.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:57.380)

Everybody should be forced to get vaccines.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:58.980)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:34:59.539)

I'm fine with that.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:00.260)

I don't know how much Alan Dershowitz has control over this.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:05.059)

I'm going to go with none.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:06.179)

Maybe.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:07.380)

But it makes Alex really mad.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:09.219)

And Bill Gates doesn't have to worry about guns because I fire projectiles at truth.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:16.179)

And the last thing I want is anything happening to Dershowitz.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:18.659)

It's you, Dershowitz, that's coming with your vaccine, telling me I will submit.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:27.860)

You're us.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:28.579)

Got to be on air now.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:30.099)

Did you delay that out?

Unknown Speaker (00:35:33.699)

Right now.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:34.340)

You're trying to attack me.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:35.860)

So here is that unedited.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:38.980)

And Bill Gates doesn't have to worry about guns because I fire projectiles at truth.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:46.820)

And the last thing I want is anything happening to Dershowitz.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:49.300)

It's you, Dershowitz, that's coming with your vaccine, telling me I will submit.

Unknown Speaker (00:35:58.420)

You're assaulting me, asshole.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:02.260)

You goddamn fucking piece of shit.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:04.659)

All right, see, I told you I can't be on air now.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:06.820)

Did you delay that out?

Unknown Speaker (00:36:08.739)

I may have to go off air right now.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:10.420)

You're trying to attack me.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:12.420)

What a baby.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:14.099)

Wow.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:15.780)

Wow.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:17.699)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:18.420)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:18.820)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:20.019)

Performative anger is somehow turning into regular anger and then back into performative

Unknown Speaker (00:36:25.139)

anger?

Unknown Speaker (00:36:25.380)

Yeah, it's a weird gray area.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:27.860)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:28.340)

Like it's obviously really mad, but also some of it is clearly amped up for effect.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:33.460)

Yeah, and none of it's real.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:34.900)

So there's that.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:35.699)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:36.659)

I mean, what it tells me, too, is that Alex is not concerned about radio stations.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:41.780)

No, no, no, no, no.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:42.980)

Not really at all.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:44.260)

No.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:44.579)

Because otherwise you'd be much more careful about swearing on air, which could get you

Unknown Speaker (00:36:49.699)

giant fines on radio stations or get you just kicked off the stations if you do it too much.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:56.420)

So Alex is really mad at Dershowitz.

Unknown Speaker (00:36:58.579)

And this goes on a little bit longer.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:01.460)

It's quite a breakdown.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:02.579)

He yells a lot about Alan Dershowitz.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:05.139)

You just can't help it because you got a one inch packer.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:12.179)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:17.059)

See, it's a family show, but I just the veneers.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:22.179)

I'm the opposite of an actor, folks.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:24.659)

That doesn't sound right, but it is a family show.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:26.820)

Yeah, you got a one inch deck.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:28.179)

You got a one inch packer, buddy.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:29.699)

Family show.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:30.260)

Yeah, I'm not going to dwell too long in the world of Alex yelling at Dershowitz because

Unknown Speaker (00:37:36.340)

I don't care.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:36.900)

Yeah, fuck Dershowitz, too.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:38.820)

So Alex gets into finally talking about this Secret Service story.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:43.139)

And this is so fucking funny.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:45.219)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:45.619)

I probably believe everything Alex is saying about this story because the reality is so

Unknown Speaker (00:37:52.900)

pathetic.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:53.619)

Oh, no.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:54.260)

Here's the first part of the story.

Unknown Speaker (00:37:56.260)

But I did have the Secret Service approach me and I was at the RNC and the night they

Unknown Speaker (00:38:05.300)

tried to approach me, I had been drinking and I didn't even meet with them because I'd

Unknown Speaker (00:38:09.300)

been up all day and I didn't do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:11.139)

And they were kind of insulted.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:12.820)

So then they approached Joe Biggs and Biggs is like, yeah, he's got a black ambulance.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:19.219)

He's having seizures every hour.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:20.659)

They say, we've got reporters.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:22.019)

We got to follow.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:22.579)

And I go, Biggs, I believe you, but I said, I want to meet with the Secret Service.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:27.219)

And they said, well, you didn't go to the meeting or whatever.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:29.139)

And I said, okay, man, I was tired.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:30.579)

It's like nine at night.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:32.659)

I'm being totally honest with everything right now.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:34.659)

And I don't drink that much.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:35.860)

Now, a lot of times I quit for months and months, but I did get a little sauce that

Unknown Speaker (00:38:38.739)

night.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:38.900)

They wanted to meet with me.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:40.340)

So Alex, the Secret Service want to meet with him around the RNC, but because he was partying,

Unknown Speaker (00:38:46.260)

he was too drunk to meet with them and they were offended.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:48.980)

So we're basically dealing with the night where he couldn't even give his keynote speech.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:53.219)

He was so drunk so early.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:55.139)

That was CPAC.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:56.820)

Oh, that's right.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:57.460)

The RNC would be like the...

Unknown Speaker (00:38:59.139)

Now I remember.

Unknown Speaker (00:38:59.940)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:00.659)

Was that the...

Unknown Speaker (00:39:01.300)

No, that wasn't the Deplora ball where he was rambling around about peeing on a tree

Unknown Speaker (00:39:06.500)

and how we're Atlantis.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:09.139)

Yeah, we are Atlantis.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:10.500)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:11.619)

So he does end up eventually making contact with the Secret Service because they're concerned

Unknown Speaker (00:39:17.300)

that he has information about a plot to assassinate Trump, right?

Unknown Speaker (00:39:21.380)

And so you would think that maybe Alex has some deep intel or somebody's told him something.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:26.420)

Could be.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:26.900)

He explains what his information is and it's so lame.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:30.980)

So the Secret Service calls up and I invited them over.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:34.019)

They said, yeah, we might come over, but they didn't.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:36.659)

And they just said, can you send us where these threats are being made?

Unknown Speaker (00:39:39.219)

I'm like, are you joking?

Unknown Speaker (00:39:40.179)

You don't know Phil Mudd threatened.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:42.260)

So the guys at Foggy Bottom are going to go after Trump.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:45.219)

The government's going to kill this guy.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:46.980)

He goes, no, he really said that.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:48.579)

And I said, yeah, I'll send it to you.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:50.019)

So I did.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:50.579)

I don't know those guys got Secret Service visits, but if you're like an auto parts salesman

Unknown Speaker (00:39:55.219)

and you say you're going to kill the president, you get a visit.

Unknown Speaker (00:39:57.219)

So Alex just sent them a link to that CNN or MSNBC interview that he yells about all

Unknown Speaker (00:40:02.420)

the time.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:02.820)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:03.460)

This is apparently the extent of the Secret Service interview that was in the headlines.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:08.579)

So he was too drunk to meet with the RNC that they finally make contact with him.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:13.300)

He's like, oh yeah, you see this Phil Mudd interview?

Unknown Speaker (00:40:15.860)

Wow.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:16.340)

I'm flabbergasted.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:18.739)

I can believe that.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:19.860)

That I can believe as well.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:20.980)

Yes, yes.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:21.699)

That I absolutely believe.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:23.860)

Do you guys have this widely publicly available information that everybody's already talked

Unknown Speaker (00:40:28.420)

about for a while?

Unknown Speaker (00:40:29.539)

If you don't, guess what?

Unknown Speaker (00:40:31.139)

Phil Mudd is coming to kill the president.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:33.380)

Alex thinks like this is proof that he uncovered an actual plot.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:37.699)

Oh man, this dude is lost.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:42.340)

Lost in his imagination.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:43.940)

I love it.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:44.579)

So Alex has an interview with Dan Lyman from Europe Wars, which is, you know, just basically

Unknown Speaker (00:40:50.900)

a, I don't know, it seems like every time he's on, all they want to talk about is like

Unknown Speaker (00:40:55.059)

how immigrants are invaders.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:56.820)

Sure, sure, sure, sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:40:57.940)

And so Alex gets to talking about how, you know, the lockdowns that have been going on.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:03.699)

It turns out they haven't made people love government, which is weird.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:07.219)

WHO directed lockdown convenient for communist China and Hong Kong and Taiwan with Macron

Unknown Speaker (00:41:13.940)

that was super unpopular.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:15.539)

But look at Spain.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:16.739)

They've now got numbers out.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:17.860)

The government's even more unpopular after lockdown.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:20.179)

So they thought this lockdown would make folks love the government.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:22.659)

Looks like it's backfiring.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:24.099)

So one of Alex's big narratives about the motives for the globalists releasing this

Unknown Speaker (00:41:27.940)

bioweapon was that there was unrest in places like China, and there was momentum growing

Unknown Speaker (00:41:32.179)

around like the yellow vests.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:34.179)

Because the globalists were scared of this stuff, they enacted this lockdown to make

Unknown Speaker (00:41:37.539)

people unable to protest, according to Alex's very stupid childlike mind.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:41.380)

This is a dumb theory, and the reason it's so dumb is because Alex believes that everyone's

Unknown Speaker (00:41:45.780)

convictions are just as flimsy as his own.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:48.340)

All of his political positions are completely changeable, depending on what he needs to

Unknown Speaker (00:41:51.940)

support that day, so he just assumes, consciously or subconsciously, that everyone else is the

Unknown Speaker (00:41:56.900)

same way.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:57.539)

Well, they're doing what we're doing.

Unknown Speaker (00:41:59.059)

And we're doing what they're doing because we're doing what they're doing.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:02.579)

Any evil group worth their salt would know that that plan would really only work in the

Unknown Speaker (00:42:06.500)

very short term, and it wouldn't be worth the trouble.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:08.900)

No villain would consider that plan.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:10.980)

So now we have Alex reporting that numbers from Spain that the government is not popular

Unknown Speaker (00:42:15.699)

have come out, which seems to run counter to his narrative that the lockdowns were meant

Unknown Speaker (00:42:19.059)

to crush dissent.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:20.340)

Instead of considering that maybe he just made that narrative up and it's based on nothing

Unknown Speaker (00:42:24.099)

except his imagination, he reports it is proof that the globalist plan is backfiring.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:28.980)

And this is a really good demonstration of why this pattern of thinking has no way out.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:33.780)

Things that prove or disprove your arbitrary narratives can be used to support your

Unknown Speaker (00:42:37.940)

your narrative. It's basically the same thing as Alex predicting globalists are going to

Unknown Speaker (00:42:41.780)

kill Trump in the next few weeks.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:43.219)

And then when it doesn't happen, he can claim he stopped it, presumably by telling the

Unknown Speaker (00:42:46.900)

Secret Service about a CNN interview.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:49.219)

Yeah, that'll do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:50.019)

So, I mean, that's that's the way this this stuff works.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:52.579)

You should have pointed him to the guys who were poisoning his cokes every night.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:55.699)

Now, there's a plot to kill Trump.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:57.300)

Well, I'm sure Roger ran that up the flagpole.

Unknown Speaker (00:42:59.380)

Yeah, I assume so.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:00.420)

Yeah. So, Alex, I don't care about him and Dan Lyman doing this immigrant baiting, bashing

Unknown Speaker (00:43:07.300)

stuff. It's it's nonsense to fuck out.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:09.699)

But there are some fun things that end up getting said in that interview, like Alex's

Unknown Speaker (00:43:13.699)

new policy on commerce.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:16.420)

They need us. We don't need them.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:18.179)

That's what I'm saying.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:18.900)

Don't give folks I won't give a leftist organization.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:21.780)

I look up things, restaurants, anything who owns it now, if they have any globalist affiliation

Unknown Speaker (00:43:26.099)

leftist, I will I will go hungry before I give them one dollar.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:31.940)

Absolutely. Shop local.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:33.699)

Make sure you check in for for for made in America and definitely look for the made in

Unknown Speaker (00:43:38.260)

China and avoid made in China at all costs.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:40.500)

Don't support that regime any longer.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:42.739)

And, you know, if you have to buy it from a buy something made in Vietnam, if you have

Unknown Speaker (00:43:46.340)

to go for that, that route, but don't buy it made in China.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:48.659)

I like thrift shops and stuff, but I literally go in them now and I go, are you a bunch of

Unknown Speaker (00:43:52.579)

leftists?

Unknown Speaker (00:43:53.139)

They're like, no, we're not.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:54.500)

One good thing is a lot of leftists right now are still act like they're like this.

Unknown Speaker (00:43:58.579)

But behind the scenes, they go, oh, we hate it.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:00.099)

We get it.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:00.980)

Oh, I don't believe any of this. Alex is just making up a bunch of shit about, oh, I check

Unknown Speaker (00:44:05.300)

to see if businesses are globalists.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:07.059)

I think it might be interesting for him to go so far in anti-immigrant baiting that he

Unknown Speaker (00:44:12.980)

actually does what I would recommend, which is shop locally and avoid mass produced products

Unknown Speaker (00:44:19.219)

that take advantage of labor in other countries.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:21.699)

It is interesting.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:22.500)

Yeah, I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:24.420)

I think all that's made up is these supposed leftists that are at thrift shops who are

Unknown Speaker (00:44:30.420)

acting like, but they fucking hate it secretly.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:32.900)

They're like, no, I love Trump.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:34.739)

Trump is huge for the thrift industry.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:36.900)

Whatever.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:38.420)

So Alex gets into a headline.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:41.139)

The backlash has begun, but it's begun massive ridicule in England where, you know, a man

Unknown Speaker (00:44:48.340)

helps a woman fix her car, gives him a kiss on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:50.900)

The police see that image of love and decency and normality, and they want to arrest him

Unknown Speaker (00:44:56.659)

and it creates that final moment of backlash.

Unknown Speaker (00:44:58.659)

Or so this story sounded really dumb, so I decided to look into it.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:02.260)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:02.659)

First, let me say that even if you help fix someone's car and feel like making a loving

Unknown Speaker (00:45:06.820)

gesture towards the person who's car you fixed, don't fucking kiss them on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:10.340)

There's a decent chance they don't want you to.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:11.940)

And it's pretty creepy.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:12.900)

All things considered, you may not know this, Jordan, but there's a rash of cheek kissing

Unknown Speaker (00:45:17.940)

related crime going on.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:19.380)

I did not know that.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:20.420)

Yes, that is something I very much did not know.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:22.820)

In February, a 37 year old Bakersfield man was arrested after he grabbed a 15 year old

Unknown Speaker (00:45:27.780)

girl and kissed her on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:29.139)

All right, well, that's a good arrestable offense.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:31.699)

Yeah, actually, that story is really wild because he ended up writing his phone number

Unknown Speaker (00:45:35.300)

on her hand.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:35.940)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:36.340)

And then her parents saw that and told her to call him and set up a meeting.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:41.059)

Wow.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:41.139)

And family members showed up with mace and tasers.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:44.340)

That's good.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:44.739)

And the citizens arrested him and then called the police.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:47.780)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:48.260)

Okay, so we're to catch a predator and go worst predator.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:51.699)

You need to catch a predator.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:52.820)

Yeah, he's a shitty predator.

Unknown Speaker (00:45:54.340)

So in September 2019, a man in Kentucky was arrested for harassment after he kissed a

Unknown Speaker (00:45:58.900)

local news reporter on the cheek on live TV.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:01.780)

Jesus.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:02.420)

In March 2019, a man in Arlington broke into a woman's house and she woke up to him kissing

Unknown Speaker (00:46:07.139)

her on the cheek, which led to unlawful entry assault and battery charges.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:10.820)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:11.300)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:11.699)

There were way more stories about cheek kissing related crime in the past year than I would

Unknown Speaker (00:46:16.980)

have imagined.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:17.539)

We got to get somebody to get wild.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:20.420)

I like face masks now.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:21.860)

I want full, like, let's get those spit guards and everything, too.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:25.380)

Whatever the case, Alex doesn't have the story right here.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:28.420)

This is about a lorry driver who'd gotten stuck under a low bridge.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:31.780)

A woman in her 70s helped guide him out of being stuck, and after he got out, he approached

Unknown Speaker (00:46:35.940)

her and kissed her on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:37.380)

A lot of people online were making fun of the Derbyshire Police's tweet about it that

Unknown Speaker (00:46:41.460)

said, quote, we are appealing for help to identify a man who kissed a woman on the cheek

Unknown Speaker (00:46:45.539)

to thank her for helping him when his lorry became stuck under a low bridge.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:49.219)

People were saying, this is the police state.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:50.900)

Can a man not kiss a lady on the cheek anymore?

Unknown Speaker (00:46:53.699)

And of course, the police released a statement that made the situation very clear.

Unknown Speaker (00:46:57.300)

Quote, we issued an appeal for information this morning after a woman was kissed on the

Unknown Speaker (00:47:01.059)

cheek in an unwanted gesture from a man she did not know.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:04.500)

The incident left the woman, who is in her 70s, very distressed, especially at a time

Unknown Speaker (00:47:08.500)

when close contact with strangers is to be avoided.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:11.139)

She reported it to us, and in the law, it falls under the Sexual Offenses Act of 2003.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:16.659)

The police would straight up not give a single fuck about this if the woman had not reported

Unknown Speaker (00:47:20.820)

it.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:21.219)

She felt violated by the gesture, and the police were just taking her report seriously

Unknown Speaker (00:47:25.219)

and trying to handle the situation.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:27.699)

Like, think about this.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:29.219)

Who exactly is Alex making fun of here?

Unknown Speaker (00:47:31.940)

That's important to remember, because he thinks he's targeting the police here, like

Unknown Speaker (00:47:36.019)

they're overreacting and offended by a cheek kiss.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:38.340)

But in reality, when he's covering a story like this this way, in effect, he's mocking

Unknown Speaker (00:47:42.739)

this 70-year-old lady.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:44.579)

To Alex, she doesn't have the right to not thankfully accept the kiss of a stranger.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:49.139)

Alex is lying about what the story is in order to make people mad about it.

Unknown Speaker (00:47:53.139)

But if they do get mad about it, the thing in the real world they're mad about is this

Unknown Speaker (00:47:57.699)

70-year-old woman having boundaries.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:00.820)

That's the real world part of this that any anger directed towards this story is funneled

Unknown Speaker (00:48:08.420)

towards in reality, because the fake version of it doesn't exist.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:11.460)

I just can't.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:13.539)

I just can't handle people.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:15.139)

How do you not - like, the first thing I think of whenever I think of that story is, why

Unknown Speaker (00:48:20.500)

the fuck are you kissing her on the cheek?

Unknown Speaker (00:48:22.659)

How are you - do you not know?

Unknown Speaker (00:48:24.659)

Like, we're in social distancing, like even then, just like, at best, you know, elbow

Unknown Speaker (00:48:30.739)

handshake, something like that.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:33.460)

Don't fucking kiss a 70-year-old high-risk woman on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:38.099)

That's insane!

Unknown Speaker (00:48:38.900)

Yeah, and little glimpses like this of little stories that Alex is misreporting are really

Unknown Speaker (00:48:44.739)

important to remember, because there's like - there's hundreds of them.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:47.780)

There's just so many that they're just fingerprints of how bad a job he does on everything.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:54.659)

Like, he's just really not good at this.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:56.260)

Damn it, I agree with you.

Unknown Speaker (00:48:57.860)

Thank you.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:03.699)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:04.579)

It's never not going to be hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:06.820)

So, in this next clip, Alex discusses how he and Infowars had appealed - they applied

Unknown Speaker (00:49:16.659)

for the small business money.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:18.500)

Of course they did.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:19.619)

Of course they did.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:20.260)

But what's funny about this is Alex is pretending they did it as a test.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:23.460)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:24.099)

Let's see how the system works.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:25.380)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:25.860)

By the way, as a test, we did it.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:28.420)

It took - I even hired a law firm to do it, because the CPA couldn't do it.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:33.219)

As a test.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:33.699)

Three weeks to get logged into the business thing, which cost us tons of money.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:37.780)

And the way it all set up is we can't even get the money.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:40.820)

Infowars.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:41.619)

And I wasn't going to take it, but we couldn't even get it.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:44.739)

Jeff Bezos got $33 billion.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:46.980)

So, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:47.460)

All right, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:48.019)

You weren't going to take it.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:49.219)

My ass, you weren't going to take it.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:50.659)

Alex doesn't take money whenever it's for ideological purposes, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:54.500)

I just did it as a test.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:55.780)

Rejects money that he - you know, just as a test.

Unknown Speaker (00:49:58.900)

It was a journalistic endeavor.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:00.420)

Absolutely.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:01.139)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:01.699)

Yeah. Man.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:05.300)

This is - my oldest brother is a dyed-in-the-wool, hates socialists and conservatism.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:11.380)

And I don't think he's into Q, but he's Q-adjacent.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:15.380)

And he was telling me about how he's on unemployment right now, and I just wanted to

Unknown Speaker (00:50:19.460)

throw my phone into a lake.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:21.139)

Like, I just wanted to toss it into the lake.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:23.380)

Like, I can't handle that level of, well, I mean, if I need it, I'll take it.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:28.739)

Like -

Unknown Speaker (00:50:29.059)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:29.460)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:29.940)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:30.260)

Yeah, you idiot.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:31.300)

You should start to get it.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:33.300)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:34.659)

No, of course not.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:35.539)

So there was a video going around - that is frustrating, I'm sorry.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:39.619)

Well, it's like my dad being like, hey, these medical bills would be terrible if I didn't

Unknown Speaker (00:50:43.860)

have Medicare.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:44.579)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:44.820)

Well, obviously I don't want people to have health insurance.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:47.139)

Like, we are an idiot.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:48.099)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:48.659)

So there was a video going around that people were mocking, and it was Alex with some water

Unknown Speaker (00:50:52.739)

noodles on his head.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:53.860)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:54.260)

And it turns out - I think that was from The War Room, because it's not on this episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:50:58.260)

But Alex does talk about what clearly inspired that.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:02.579)

And it's those videos or pictures that you see of people at, like, cafes with water noodles

Unknown Speaker (00:51:07.860)

on their head.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:08.260)

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:09.380)

The six-foot -

Unknown Speaker (00:51:10.019)

Yeah, I got it.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:10.980)

Yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:11.860)

So Communist China a month ago had kids wearing

Unknown Speaker (00:51:16.900)

Styrofoam noodles on their heads.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:20.260)

More like, oh, look at the Chinese Communist.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:22.019)

And now this is what goes on in America.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:25.139)

And now in Europe, public humiliation cafe makes customers wear stupid hats to enforce

Unknown Speaker (00:51:30.820)

social distancing.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:31.619)

Well, they're not calling it Fish Tales of Dumbest Fucking People on Earth.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:36.579)

Family show.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:38.340)

You know, I don't normally use non-King's English here, but -

Unknown Speaker (00:51:41.940)

And you seem to be a lot today.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:43.300)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:44.099)

So, all right, dumbest fucking people on Earth.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:46.659)

Today must have been a bad day for him.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:48.260)

Seems like a bad day.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:49.059)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:49.460)

You should take a nap.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:50.420)

Or eat a Snickers.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:51.539)

Or just get off your show.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:52.659)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:53.380)

You said earlier you need to be off air.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:55.380)

Just burn your studio to the ground.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:56.980)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:57.380)

So Alex does not get off air.

Unknown Speaker (00:51:58.980)

But yeah, I mean, I guess eventually he does.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:00.900)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:01.300)

But in this last clip from May 18th, he talks about how great Band.video is doing.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:06.579)

Wow, I knew Band.video would be big, but it's getting really big.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:10.340)

We got lots of videos, like every day with a million views or more.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:13.219)

And it's all these banned medical doctors, heads of virology at Rockefeller Hospital,

Unknown Speaker (00:52:19.860)

and heads of virology in Australia, and heads of - Nobel Prize winners for virology coming

Unknown Speaker (00:52:25.940)

out and saying COVID-19's a hoax.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:28.179)

They'll have a million, 10 million, 15 million views.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:30.739)

They get banned.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:33.460)

I just have the crew.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:34.260)

I go, hey, any medical doctor you see with a half million views, they'll be banned.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:37.619)

Go ahead and grab it.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:38.500)

And we have it.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:39.139)

And we post it.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:39.860)

And what's absent from that telling of the story is permission.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:45.619)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:46.260)

But I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:46.900)

I have no idea if these people have agreed to allow him to repost stuff.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:50.340)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:51.139)

If they haven't, that's pretty shitty.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:52.500)

Does he think their views come with him?

Unknown Speaker (00:52:55.139)

Yeah, I think so.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:56.260)

Oh, they got half a million on YouTube.

Unknown Speaker (00:52:58.019)

That means that when I repost it, I already have half a million hits on that.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:01.860)

Yeah, I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:02.500)

But what he's saying is absolutely not true, because there's a complete lie about Band.video.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:07.619)

Alex remains the most popular thing on that website, with his shows getting around 100,000

Unknown Speaker (00:53:11.780)

views, with some getting up to around 170,000.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:14.980)

There's some anomalies that I saw, like a little clip that he made that was pro Tucker

Unknown Speaker (00:53:18.420)

Carlson that got about 290,000.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:21.300)

But it gets really, really sad really fast when you leave Alex's channel.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:25.780)

Owen Schroyer's War Room episode from May 20th is sitting at 1,500 views as I prepare

Unknown Speaker (00:53:30.500)

this episode.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:30.980)

Hey.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:31.699)

And his show from the 19th is only at 7,500.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:34.420)

He's killing it.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:35.219)

David Knight's numbers are comparably depressing.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:37.699)

Robert Barnes' show is actually doing a little better than Alex's main network shows, pulling

Unknown Speaker (00:53:41.699)

in between 12,000 and 20,000 views.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:44.019)

Good work, Barnes.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:44.980)

Paul Joseph Watson, his videos are surprisingly low in views.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:48.980)

But that's just because he's still on YouTube.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:50.739)

So his fan base doesn't need that dumb site.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:53.219)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:53:54.019)

Alex recently gave David Icke a channel, and that doesn't seem to have been taken off nearly

Unknown Speaker (00:53:59.539)

as well as expected.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:00.659)

Most of his videos are sitting under 25,000 views.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:03.699)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:04.340)

There's exactly one video I could find with more than a million views, and it has 1.4

Unknown Speaker (00:54:09.619)

million.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:10.420)

This is not something Alex made.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:11.940)

It's just something that he took from someone else.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:14.019)

It's a reposting of Plandemic.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:15.860)

There we go.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:16.900)

Hey.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:17.619)

That is all he's talking about.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:18.659)

How about that?

Unknown Speaker (00:54:19.460)

The rest of the site is a depressing disaster.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:21.619)

Great.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:21.940)

I mean, the numbers aren't bad if you're like an indie creator trying to get some steam

Unknown Speaker (00:54:25.300)

going.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:25.619)

But Alex is a multimillionaire on year 26 in the media industry.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:30.019)

This is pathetic.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:31.460)

But I guess congratulations to Alex for reposting someone else's documentary and getting a million

Unknown Speaker (00:54:36.019)

views on it.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:36.900)

Really a strong indication that things are working out in-house for Infowars.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:40.980)

Yeah, his content is really picking up.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:44.739)

I mean, not his content.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:46.980)

His stolen content.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:48.019)

You know, like 1776 is 1984.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:50.739)

And Hillary for Prison.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:51.619)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:52.420)

So now we get to May 19th.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:53.940)

This show is fascinating to me because I'm going to just give you a spoiler alert.

Unknown Speaker (00:54:57.539)

Alex leaves halfway through it without even saying he's leaving.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:00.099)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:00.500)

That's great.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:01.059)

He doesn't even threaten to leave.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:02.739)

I like it.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:02.739)

I love it.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:03.300)

He just leaves.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:04.179)

He just goes.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:04.980)

It's very weird.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:05.860)

I like an Irish goodbye on your own show.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:08.019)

That's fun.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:08.980)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:09.219)

And he starts out pretty hot.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:10.820)

None of the Rockefellers measured up after David Rockefeller.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:13.460)

He was in charge until his early 90s and died at what 99 a few years ago after his seventh

Unknown Speaker (00:55:19.300)

heart transplant failed.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:21.699)

And the globalists really don't believe in just passing on power through royalty unless

Unknown Speaker (00:55:27.619)

someone rises the occasion.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:29.300)

Well, the decision was made to make Bill Gates the head of the New World Order.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:34.900)

About 12 years ago, as best I can tell.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:39.460)

As best you can tell.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:40.900)

Reportedly, this is 35 years after he became a demon.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:44.500)

As best you can tell.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:45.460)

Get the fuck out of here, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:46.579)

As best I can tell.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:47.460)

It's like cite anything.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:48.900)

Just shut the fuck up.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:49.780)

From reverse engineering the present, I can tell you that it was about 12 years ago.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:53.699)

Good.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:54.019)

Good for you, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:54.739)

Yeah, it was about a big dozen years ago.

Unknown Speaker (00:55:56.500)

In my imagination, right around when Obama got elected, that was when Bill Gates was

Unknown Speaker (00:56:02.260)

made the head of the Illuminati.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:03.780)

Now, I'll let you in on a secret.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:04.980)

The globalists don't believe in passing power down through, like, royalty.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:09.219)

Except, let's cut back to any time in my previous history when I said the globalists

Unknown Speaker (00:56:14.260)

passed down wealth and power through Rothchild.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:16.900)

That's why he hates Anderson Cooper.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:18.980)

Right, because he's a Vanderbilt.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:19.780)

Because he's a Vanderbilt.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:20.500)

He's the last winner of the world.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:21.380)

What are you fucking doing?

Unknown Speaker (00:56:22.900)

They don't believe me.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:23.780)

You fuck off.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:25.139)

There's no such thing as dynastic power among the globalists, except for the globalists

Unknown Speaker (00:56:28.659)

are the Rothchild lineage and all the 13 bloodlines.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:32.019)

Oh, okay.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:33.139)

Which is it?

Unknown Speaker (00:56:33.699)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:34.019)

Dumb, dumb.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:34.500)

Pick one.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:34.980)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:35.539)

So Alex has to do this show.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:38.099)

I think he probably would have taken off.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:40.019)

Maybe.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:40.500)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:41.219)

Maybe.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:41.619)

I mean, he said he was going to take off.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:42.900)

He did today before.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:43.860)

On the 18th, he said he's taking the rest of the week off.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:45.860)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:46.340)

Or at least a few days.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:47.460)

No, he's in studio.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:48.579)

But I think it's because fucking idiot ass Trump got on TV and said he was taking hydroxychloroquine.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:54.659)

Yeah, that one's tough.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:55.619)

On the afternoon of the 18th.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:57.619)

So now Alex has got to spin it.

Unknown Speaker (00:56:59.219)

He's got to rationalize.

Unknown Speaker (00:57:00.900)

I have never seen a more clear cut, etched in stone,

Unknown Speaker (00:57:09.300)

teaching moment to show complete crystal clear fraud.

Unknown Speaker (00:57:15.380)

A Rosetta Stone, a skeleton key, a masterclass, a masterpiece

Unknown Speaker (00:57:23.380)

of on its face lies, treason, arrogance, deception.

Unknown Speaker (00:57:28.900)

And that's Trump action of ignorance and superstition and fear of ideas and fear of

Unknown Speaker (00:57:36.420)

communication, which the universities have now been inverted from the pentacle of empowering

Unknown Speaker (00:57:42.980)

humanity to the pentagram of inverting nice silencing debate.

Unknown Speaker (00:57:49.219)

Pentacle hydroxychloroquine is one of the only known treatments that actually works

Unknown Speaker (00:57:58.179)

for respiratory illnesses.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:00.739)

Lupus.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:02.179)

It's also known as a cure for malaria and a preventative.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:07.300)

It's also known as one of the only treatments of off drug that works in lupus.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:12.340)

And there are hundreds and hundreds of studies that hydroxychloroquine,

Unknown Speaker (00:58:17.860)

when taken in the first stages of a coronavirus COVID-19 infection, is 100% effective.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:24.820)

So Alex makes a few points there that I'd like to address.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:27.460)

He says that hydroxychloroquine is one of the only known treatments that works for respiratory

Unknown Speaker (00:58:32.260)

illness.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:32.980)

So I consulted RT magazine about this claim, which does not stand for Russia today.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:37.460)

It's actually respiratory therapy.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:39.619)

In their article, quote, pharmacological treatment of respiratory disorders, you may be surprised

Unknown Speaker (00:58:44.420)

to learn that neither hydroxychloroquine nor chloroquine comes up.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:48.019)

There are so many medications that are used to treat respiratory illnesses, and those

Unknown Speaker (00:58:51.780)

two are not on the list.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:53.380)

Just think about all the inhaler based things like albuterol.

Unknown Speaker (00:58:56.500)

Then, you know, add some corticosteroids and all sorts of other meds, and you have an idea

Unknown Speaker (00:59:01.059)

of the different strategies doctors have to deal with respiratory conditions.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:04.500)

Yeah, but those are all based on hydrochloroquine, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:07.059)

No, hydroxychloroquine.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:08.820)

There are definitely uses for hydroxychloroquine, but respiratory conditions is not relevant

Unknown Speaker (00:59:12.900)

on that list.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:13.460)

Alex is just making that up.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:15.139)

He says that it's used for malaria, which is true.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:17.219)

Alex has earned a little pat on the head for that.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:19.699)

He then says that it's known as one of the only off drugs that works for lupus, and I

Unknown Speaker (00:59:24.019)

have no idea what an off drug is or what he's trying to say.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:26.900)

It's an off drug.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:27.619)

I have no idea.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:28.260)

You know, it's a drug that's off.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:30.340)

It is true that hydroxychloroquine is prescribed for lupus under the name Plaquenil.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:34.900)

That's really one of the big reasons why it's a bad idea to cause a run on this medication,

Unknown Speaker (00:59:38.900)

because it's only going to hurt people who need it for their conditions.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:42.179)

But Alex doesn't seem to understand or care about that dynamic.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:45.619)

Either way, anti-malarial drugs are only part of the approach towards managing lupus.

Unknown Speaker (00:59:50.659)

Treatment and management of lupus is a complicated game, and if you go to lupus.org, you can

Unknown Speaker (00:59:55.940)

read up on the various medications that are used to help people with the condition, including

Unknown Speaker (00:59:59.940)

steroids, anti-inflammatories, and anticoagulants.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:03.460)

Alex has claimed that hydroxychloroquine is one of the only treatments for lupus is painfully

Unknown Speaker (01:00:07.219)

reductive and a pretty strong indication that he has no idea what he's talking about.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:10.900)

He then goes on to assert that there are hundreds and hundreds of studies that show that the

Unknown Speaker (01:00:14.099)

medication is perfect in its effectiveness, provided it's taken in the early stages after

Unknown Speaker (01:00:18.980)

catching the coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:20.900)

There aren't hundreds of stories about chloroquine and coronavirus, period.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:25.139)

He's just making that shit up.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:26.900)

Most of the recent studies show that it is not effective at all and possibly dangerous.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:31.539)

A few days before Alex recorded this episode, two new studies were published in BMJ, which

Unknown Speaker (01:00:36.340)

quote, found that when compared with standard treatment, the use of hydroxychloroquine did

Unknown Speaker (01:00:41.300)

not increase the likelihood of virus elimination in Chinese patients with mild to moderate

Unknown Speaker (01:00:45.460)

COVID-19, nor did it have any effect on reducing admissions to intensive care or death in French

Unknown Speaker (01:00:51.139)

patients with more severe illness.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:53.219)

Both studies found a higher rate of adverse events in patients treated with the drug.

Unknown Speaker (01:00:58.340)

I understand that it's Alex's job to run Trump defense whenever he says something stupid

Unknown Speaker (01:01:02.340)

or dangerous, you know, to pretend that there's some kind of hidden reality wherein Trump

Unknown Speaker (01:01:06.420)

is actually right and the people criticizing him are the stupid ones, but this is too much.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:10.579)

Trump straight up went on TV and said he was taking hydroxychloroquine, which is just madness.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:15.219)

He's either lying, which is absurd and very hard to guess why a person would do that,

Unknown Speaker (01:01:19.059)

or he's telling the truth and either has COVID-19 or thinks without any evidence that taking

Unknown Speaker (01:01:24.179)

it will protect him from getting infected.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:26.579)

There's nothing I can say about this.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:28.179)

Trump is throwing around weird claims that if people, you know, they take his lead, could

Unknown Speaker (01:01:32.260)

lead to them getting hurt or killed.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:33.860)

And Alex is right there licking the boots and coming up with completely nonsensical

Unknown Speaker (01:01:37.860)

rationalizations for why Trump said that stupid thing and it's actually secretly smart.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:42.340)

What a fucking loser.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:43.619)

Take the day off, asshole.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:44.900)

Yeah, that's I.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:48.900)

Isn't that a crime?

Unknown Speaker (01:01:49.940)

Can you can't you isn't that making false medical claims?

Unknown Speaker (01:01:53.219)

I guess that he's not selling hydroxychloroquine.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:56.099)

I still think you could probably get in trouble.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:57.940)

I think you should get in trouble.

Unknown Speaker (01:01:59.139)

Definitive statements we might get to later.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:01.780)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:02.179)

Oh, my God.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:03.059)

What is everybody stupid?

Unknown Speaker (01:02:05.219)

Everyone's dumb.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:05.860)

Everybody's stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:06.659)

So I heard Trump say that and I was just like, this is what this is what being beaten feels

Unknown Speaker (01:02:12.820)

like because I heard him say that.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:15.380)

And I was like, I guess fine.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:18.980)

The end.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:19.539)

There's a sinking feeling of like, I can't stop that.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:21.940)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:22.260)

No, I'm at the end of 1984.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:24.900)

Fuck it.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:25.380)

Fuck it.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:26.179)

Don't give a shit.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:27.139)

So Alex is thrilled that Trump is saying he's taking it because he believes that there's

Unknown Speaker (01:02:30.900)

some sort of a preventative efficacy that it has.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:33.539)

Which is why not?

Unknown Speaker (01:02:36.260)

They come out and say the president is a fraud and a liar and a scammer.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:40.340)

When he makes an accurate medical decision with his own personal doctor to take it preventatively

Unknown Speaker (01:02:45.619)

with zinc.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:47.139)

My God.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:47.780)

And Trump decided to knock out his bacterial flora and took a Z pack up front.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:52.579)

I hope he's taken probiotics to replace him.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:55.219)

But yeah, around people he's with.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:56.820)

I get it because they get him with some weaponized version.

Unknown Speaker (01:02:59.940)

So what is the CIA?

Unknown Speaker (01:03:01.619)

That means some leftist arm of it.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:03.940)

This is out of any fair CIA.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:05.619)

Please ignore Trump's medical advice or his own personal advice.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:09.940)

On coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:10.900)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:11.139)

Who are you?

Unknown Speaker (01:03:11.539)

A doctor.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:12.019)

You're not Bill Gates.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:13.219)

You're not Alan Dershowitz.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:16.500)

You know, the tell us their doctors.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:18.340)

Trump's not a doctor.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:19.300)

He's only playing one on TV.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:20.820)

Washington Post.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:21.940)

Trump's not a doctor.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:23.139)

Trump urges coronavirus patients to take unproven drug.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:25.940)

How dare him?

Unknown Speaker (01:03:28.500)

So this is a top story everywhere.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:32.980)

And they're saying he's a fraud.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:34.340)

Impeach him.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:35.219)

The Democrats are calling for hearings.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:37.300)

So as I understand it, there are some hearings that are happening right now about the government's

Unknown Speaker (01:03:41.059)

response to the virus, but I don't think I've heard anyone say that it's leading to impeachment.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:45.380)

I think Alex is conflating this stuff and the House's ongoing investigation into the

Unknown Speaker (01:03:49.380)

instances of possible obstruction of justice that were in the Mueller report.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:52.820)

There is no impeachment coming.

Unknown Speaker (01:03:54.900)

But we've now reached the point in Alex Jones's career where he's cheerleading for the president

Unknown Speaker (01:03:58.579)

of the federal government, telling his followers that it's a good idea to take a medication

Unknown Speaker (01:04:02.579)

that's been in no way proven to be effective and is possibly dangerous.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:05.699)

I really thought this guy hated the federal government and was intrinsically distrustful

Unknown Speaker (01:04:09.780)

of a singular executive.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:11.539)

So weird how his career is shaken out, almost like he never really believed any of that

Unknown Speaker (01:04:15.139)

shit he yelled into a bullhorn.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:16.820)

I will say that he's super lucky that his audience is too dumb to realize that that

Unknown Speaker (01:04:20.820)

switch happened because to anyone who's paying attention, this is fucking ridiculous.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:25.139)

I'm just so terrified that Trump is going to wind up killing himself via his own stupidity

Unknown Speaker (01:04:31.059)

and then the right wing is going to turn that into he was assassinated.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:34.900)

And then we're all going to fucking die in a civil war.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:37.860)

I mean, like, that's my fear now.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:39.940)

My fear is Trump is so stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:42.579)

He's going to die and kill us all.

Unknown Speaker (01:04:46.260)

I do think I mean, I don't know how likely that is, but I will say that if by some quirk

Unknown Speaker (01:04:52.179)

or some weird, awful coincidence, he does end up dying through some unhealthiness or

Unknown Speaker (01:04:58.900)

some just natural causes.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:00.420)

Yeah, absolutely.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:01.380)

It's going to be a conspiracy.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:02.420)

Yeah, no, totally, totally.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:04.500)

I know that much.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:05.619)

This is how we're going to get the granddaughter of Martin Luther King Jr. in the White House.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:10.659)

Oh, no, that's what's going to happen.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:12.260)

That's the only thing that makes sense.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:13.699)

Those time travelers were dead on.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:15.460)

So it turns out Alex believes that the coronavirus, I guess he might not think it's a virus.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:21.059)

I don't know where he stands on this.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:22.179)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:22.900)

But he's saying in this next clip that it's a deficiency of vitamin D, basically.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:27.619)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:28.420)

Folks, they have people under criminal investigation or SWAT teaming medical doctors that give

Unknown Speaker (01:05:32.739)

patients vitamin C because they don't want you to know that it's a disease of vitamin

Unknown Speaker (01:05:38.739)

deficiency.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:39.860)

Zinc, D3, vitamin C.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:42.739)

Major Yahoo News AP last week admitted it.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:45.940)

They did a huge EU study and found everyone that died of COVID-19 was deficient in D3.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:53.539)

So Alex is a little off about this.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:55.460)

For one, I'm not sure what he thinks is an EU study.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:58.179)

I don't know what that means.

Unknown Speaker (01:05:59.460)

But there was a study that came out on May 7th from Northwestern University, which analyzed

Unknown Speaker (01:06:03.539)

patient data from 10 countries and found that, quote, patients from countries with high COVID-19

Unknown Speaker (01:06:08.420)

mortality rates had lower levels of vitamin D compared to patients in countries that were

Unknown Speaker (01:06:12.900)

not as severely affected.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:14.900)

The head of research of Vadim Backman said, quote, while I think it's important for people

Unknown Speaker (01:06:19.539)

to know that vitamin D deficiency may play a role in mortality, we don't need to push

Unknown Speaker (01:06:23.940)

vitamin D on everybody.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:25.460)

This needs further study, and I hope our work will stimulate interest in this area.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:29.699)

The data also may illuminate the mechanism of mortality, which, if proven, could lead

Unknown Speaker (01:06:34.500)

to new therapeutic targets.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:36.579)

The theory that Backman has is that having higher levels of vitamin D could reduce the

Unknown Speaker (01:06:41.059)

risk of complications, but that a lot of people would still be dying from the virus.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:45.699)

Nothing in the study demonstrated that everyone who died had vitamin D deficiency.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:49.300)

Alex is just making that up.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:51.139)

There are some other studies on this subject, but they're even further from what Alex is

Unknown Speaker (01:06:54.420)

talking about.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:54.900)

So I assume that's not what he's pulling from.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:57.380)

I have no idea.

Unknown Speaker (01:06:58.659)

This is an interesting area to be looked into, but that study is not even peer reviewed yet,

Unknown Speaker (01:07:03.699)

so we will see what comes from it after further examination.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:07.139)

Either way, literally no one is saying that vitamin D could be an effective treatment

Unknown Speaker (01:07:11.139)

for this, just that there may be a correlation between lower vitamin D and higher complication

Unknown Speaker (01:07:18.260)

probability.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:19.139)

That's the essential piece in this.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:21.780)

Alex is translating that into everyone who died had vitamin D deficiency.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:27.219)

I can find no evidence that that's true.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:28.820)

I have a hard time believing that the information there does not also coincide with less privileged

Unknown Speaker (01:07:36.179)

populations in terms of vitamins and all of that.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:40.179)

Malnourished people are probably more likely to die as well.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:43.380)

It's very possible.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:44.260)

That's something that would be borne out by further study.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:46.579)

Yeah, exactly.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:47.300)

Possibly.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:47.780)

I just feel like screaming all the time, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:50.420)

You can't make that up.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:51.539)

That's mean.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:52.179)

That's mean to me.

Unknown Speaker (01:07:53.139)

The doctor who got arrested that Alex is talking about is a guy named Charles Mock, and he

Unknown Speaker (01:07:57.940)

ran a Detroit clinic and literally claimed that high dose IV vitamin C infusions would

Unknown Speaker (01:08:02.739)

protect people from catching the virus.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:05.219)

He was committing fraud and apparently also committing Medicare fraud.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:09.139)

According to a Daily Beast article about his arrest, quote, one cooperating witness, who

Unknown Speaker (01:08:13.139)

is an employee, told authorities that five employees who tested positive for COVID-19

Unknown Speaker (01:08:17.779)

continued to work and treat patients.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:20.020)

At least one of them was assigned by Mock to treat COVID-19 patients because that employee,

Unknown Speaker (01:08:24.659)

quote, had already contracted the virus.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:28.420)

This is not so much a problem about doctor giving people vitamin C.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:31.939)

It's more the fraud aspect that the courts are concerned about.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:35.460)

That's weirdly so often the problem with Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:37.699)

He misses the forest for the trees.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:40.180)

No one cares about a doctor giving someone vitamin C.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:42.579)

They care if they do it in a fraudulent way.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:45.779)

In the same way, no one cares if you kiss someone on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:48.260)

So long as they want to be kissed on the cheek.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:50.500)

Alex seems incapable of understanding context, which makes sense that, you know, whatever.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:55.220)

That's not news.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:55.939)

I think you can also get him on an attempted murder charge.

Unknown Speaker (01:08:59.220)

If he's if he's letting people who have COVID-19, if he's directly attempted manslaughter.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:04.739)

Yeah, that's some serious shit right there.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:06.979)

But also, to be fair, that is just what the witness alleges.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:11.140)

Sure, sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:12.020)

I'm not entirely sure if that witness is correct, but that's proven.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:15.220)

I'm just saying that if I'm hearing that, I'm giving it a I'm putting it on the list.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:20.020)

Jesus.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:20.659)

So here's where all this starts to get really troubling.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:24.260)

Alex makes a claim that I think...

Unknown Speaker (01:09:25.859)

I'm glad that this is where it all starts to get troubling.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:28.260)

Everything prior to this is...

Unknown Speaker (01:09:30.659)

Alex makes a claim that I think is a little bit maybe past what he should be saying.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:35.699)

The president's taken months to go, oh yeah, the study's saying the doctor's telling me

Unknown Speaker (01:09:40.739)

this hydroxychloroquine's great because it loads the cells.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:45.460)

You don't need it, folks.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:46.420)

You take 10 times the daily allowance.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:48.659)

That's safe.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:49.460)

I looked into it.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:50.100)

Had doctors on the show.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:51.539)

Long term, not good for your kidneys.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:52.979)

But during this, you take 100 milligrams of zinc, you're in like Flynn if you've got the

Unknown Speaker (01:09:57.859)

D3 and the C.

Unknown Speaker (01:09:59.060)

But they can't get in the virus.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:01.539)

Viruses cannot get into cells and cannot replicate when you have zinc load.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:07.140)

Fact, fact, fact, fact, fake, fake, fake, fake.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:12.500)

That sounds pretty bad, considering that we all know that Alex sells zinc supplements.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:16.899)

So the A to B on this is pretty obvious.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:19.699)

Even if Alex isn't saying this shit in the same time as he's plugging the real red pill,

Unknown Speaker (01:10:23.380)

it's still a reality that he sells zinc and has marketed these products as things that

Unknown Speaker (01:10:27.939)

have zinc.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:28.659)

And he's literally said on the show that right now that if you make a dose on zinc, you won't

Unknown Speaker (01:10:33.220)

get the coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:34.819)

I really don't think that's legal.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:36.420)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he should be arrested like a certain doctor that we're talking about.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:41.300)

Or at least fined heavily.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:42.260)

Yeah, no, this should be immediate dismissal from the air.

Unknown Speaker (01:10:46.979)

According to a 1990 study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, quote, at low

Unknown Speaker (01:10:51.460)

intakes but at amounts well in excess of the recommended daily allowance, which is parenthetically

Unknown Speaker (01:10:56.819)

to 100 to 300 milligrams of zinc per day versus the RDA of 15 milligrams, evidence of induced

Unknown Speaker (01:11:04.899)

copper deficiency with attendant symptoms of anemia and neutropenia, as well as impaired

Unknown Speaker (01:11:11.140)

immune function and adverse effects on the ratio of low-density lipoprotein to high-density

Unknown Speaker (01:11:16.180)

lipoprotein cholesterol have been reported.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:19.300)

So there are issues with just the amount that Alex is describing, and not necessarily long-term

Unknown Speaker (01:11:25.460)

taking of it.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:27.699)

You could get anemia.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:28.739)

You could get copper deficiency.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:30.340)

Your immune function could be impaired based on the 100 milligram dose of zinc that he's

Unknown Speaker (01:11:35.779)

recommending.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:36.579)

He has no business making these kind of recommendations.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:39.619)

Our conservatives would rather kill themselves than listen to a real doctor.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:44.340)

Probably.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:44.979)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:45.300)

Alex is telling his listeners that it's totally cool to do something that's potentially dangerous

Unknown Speaker (01:11:49.060)

and maybe possibly lethal in order to convince them that he has the answer as to how to avoid

Unknown Speaker (01:11:53.539)

getting the coronavirus.

Unknown Speaker (01:11:54.979)

It's really hard for me to imagine anyone acting more irresponsibly than this, given

Unknown Speaker (01:11:59.300)

the circumstances.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:00.500)

This is very depressing.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:01.859)

It's pretty depressing.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:02.659)

That's really depressing.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:03.859)

Fuck off, man.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:04.739)

That's really depressing.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:05.619)

Fuck off.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:06.020)

Play that play that clip where he agrees with me.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:08.260)

No, no, no.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:08.819)

There isn't one.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:09.460)

Oh, I don't get that one.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:10.500)

Alex only agrees with me.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:11.619)

Oh, God damn it.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:12.420)

Now, here's the thing.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:13.460)

Alex might be sounding like he's talking shit, but it turns out his doctor, Alex's doctor

Unknown Speaker (01:12:19.220)

takes hydroxychloroquine.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:21.140)

My family doctor takes it.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:24.100)

I hadn't been into a medical checkup in like three years.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:26.500)

I went in and got the checkup and he said, I'm not worried about it.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:29.539)

I've ordered hydroxychloroquine because it was sold out here.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:32.899)

I got it from France.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:34.340)

I'm like, OK, great.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:36.340)

But I mean, I was like, don't you think he goes, yeah, but I want to push it in my cells.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:40.819)

I mean, it's just a fact.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:44.100)

Alex is laughing there because I think he realizes how obvious it is that his doctor

Unknown Speaker (01:12:48.899)

is himself.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:49.619)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:51.220)

I think he laughed because he's like, oh, my God, I can't believe people believe this.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:54.979)

This story is too fake even for me.

Unknown Speaker (01:12:58.100)

I have to laugh at the end of the story.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:00.500)

A doctor said I need to push in my cells.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:03.300)

It's almost like I can't believe I get away with it.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:05.539)

Yeah, I know.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:06.100)

That was that laugh.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:07.060)

That's bullshit.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:07.939)

That's crazy.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:08.979)

So Alex gets to listing his sales because he's got a big sale going on.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:13.539)

And some of this, I think if you listen carefully, sounds pretty fucking desperate.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:17.779)

Ultimate krill oil.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:19.300)

What are you talking about?

Unknown Speaker (01:13:19.939)

Unknown Speaker (01:13:25.939)

You sleep so much better with it.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:27.140)

That's my personal experience.

Unknown Speaker (01:13:28.739)

Unknown Speaker (01:13:30.500)

Those are some big, big sales.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:09.220)

70% off.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:10.819)

I'm sure he didn't mean at cost with the water filter.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:14.420)

100% off retail.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:15.779)

I'm sure he did.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:16.500)

That is insane.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:18.500)

We're going to give you a fucking water filter.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:20.659)

You call me, I'm going to mail it to you.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:23.140)

Hey, $49.99 in shipping and you get a water filter.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:26.659)

Yeah, that's a misspeaking.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:28.579)

Yeah, I hope so.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:31.380)

Otherwise, I want a water filter.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:32.979)

Also, I don't know if he's committed to stick to that sale because he announced it on the

Unknown Speaker (01:14:36.340)

show, but that would be trouble.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:39.300)

Yeah, I like it.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:40.739)

Let's get the FTC involved.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:42.819)

I wonder if he has to honor that sale.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:45.939)

I want my 100% off.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:48.659)

I'm going to look into this.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:49.460)

I might get a free water filter.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:50.420)

I think, well, there's plenty of places to put it in here.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:53.460)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:14:55.699)

Halfway through the first hour of the show, Alex just starts playing a video about Bill

Unknown Speaker (01:14:59.859)

Gates being evil that was made by this guy named James Corbett.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:02.579)

Great.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:02.979)

He does a YouTube thing.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:04.739)

Not Bill Corbett of MST3K.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:06.979)

Other guy.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:08.020)

Then, it just plays.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:09.779)

In and out of commercials, it's just playing this video.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:12.260)

Then, six minutes into the second hour, that wraps up and Alex is gone.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:16.659)

He doesn't say he's leaving.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:18.420)

He's just gone.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:19.539)

Smoke bomb.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:20.260)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:20.819)

Harrison Smith and Greg Reese are hosting, which is a disaster, but I thought it's only

Unknown Speaker (01:15:27.140)

half an hour of this episode.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:29.060)

I've got to listen to a little bit, see if Alex comes back.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:31.380)

See what happens.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:32.020)

See what happens.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:33.380)

I haven't given Harrison Smith a listen in a while.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:35.699)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:36.420)

How did it go?

Unknown Speaker (01:15:37.220)

Oh, man.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:38.020)

Bill Gates is a super villain.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:40.659)

This is my realization.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:43.300)

He's a literal super villain.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:44.739)

I actually went through and started to look at some of the most famous super villains

Unknown Speaker (01:15:49.460)

around these days, and they literally sound like Bill Gates.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:53.619)

You have, of course, from the Marvel series, you have Thanos.

Unknown Speaker (01:15:56.739)

His whole point is, I'm going to save people by killing half the people.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:00.659)

There's too many people overpopulation.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:02.659)

We have to cull the population, which is just literally, it sounds like a Bill Gates Ted

Unknown Speaker (01:16:08.340)

talk.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:08.979)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:09.619)

This is going to be tough.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:10.340)

Is anything real?

Unknown Speaker (01:16:11.300)

Is anything real?

Unknown Speaker (01:16:12.180)

This is going to be tough.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:13.140)

Nothing is real.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:13.779)

Everything has got to be back to what fictional thing this feels like to me.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:18.979)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:19.539)

We can't just deal with reality.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:21.060)

Reality's scary, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:22.420)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:22.979)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:23.300)

You know what this reminds me of?

Unknown Speaker (01:16:24.739)

This reminds me of The Truman Show.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:26.899)

I think people are all watching me lose my goddamn mind.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:30.340)

That's what's going on here.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:31.859)

That's my conspiracy theory.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:33.220)

Bill Gates put together a show.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:34.819)

You're in on it, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:36.819)

You must be.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:37.779)

Yep, totally.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:38.899)

So I want to confirm that for you and then also tell you that I decided, why not tee

Unknown Speaker (01:16:44.819)

off on this fucking dork?

Unknown Speaker (01:16:46.260)

Love it.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:46.579)

So if Alex is just going to leave in the middle of the show, I'm going to treat his other

Unknown Speaker (01:16:52.260)

employees to the same kind of scrutiny that I usually give him.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:55.460)

Here we go.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:55.859)

Let's see how the bench is.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:57.939)

This is not going to go well.

Unknown Speaker (01:16:58.899)

When Alex has got to leave, these are the aces that he calls in to fill in.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:03.300)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:04.100)

And then of course you have this story here.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:05.859)

Harvard scientists begin experiment to block out the sun.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:09.060)

This is something that Bill Gates is involved with.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:12.260)

In fact, we have a video of this.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:14.819)

I think we can go to this.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:16.180)

This is clip number two.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:17.140)

This is Bill Gates explaining his plan to save the world.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:21.460)

Clip number two.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:26.340)

Do you have that?

Unknown Speaker (01:17:27.939)

My God.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:29.619)

We'll get that in just a second.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:30.899)

The engineers are hard at work.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:33.939)

He's just trying to play a clip from The Simpsons.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:35.859)

Yeah, I was about to say.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:36.979)

Yeah, and the joke doesn't work.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:39.140)

They play it later.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:40.180)

It doesn't pay off.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:41.220)

It doesn't work out.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:42.100)

This is just very sad.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:43.619)

Just very sad.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:44.819)

Are there just cardboard cutouts of people working in the booth?

Unknown Speaker (01:17:47.539)

Is that what's going on?

Unknown Speaker (01:17:48.659)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:50.020)

Play clip two and everyone's like, I've never even heard of clip two.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:53.060)

It's got to be temps or something.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:54.659)

What is going on?

Unknown Speaker (01:17:56.100)

This is insane.

Unknown Speaker (01:17:58.100)

I'm going to skip this next clip because it's just nonsense.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:00.260)

Harrison being stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:01.539)

I only kept it because he forgets the name of Margaret Sanger.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:05.220)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:05.539)

And it's like, come on, man.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:06.500)

Just pretend you know what you're talking about.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:08.500)

Pretend you care about the thing that you're covering.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:11.460)

So Greg Reese jumps in, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:18:14.020)

And he wants to talk about that idea about blocking out the sun.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:17.300)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:17.699)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:18.020)

Here we go.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:18.500)

And in the Matrix, that's how the humans tried to beat the machines was to block out the

Unknown Speaker (01:18:23.460)

sun and that ended up giving AI the upper hand and breeding people's batteries and stuff.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:27.939)

It's just insane.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:28.819)

The solutions that they come up to are just as draconian as the problems that they think

Unknown Speaker (01:18:35.380)

that they're solving.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:36.739)

And again, it's like you just type in super villain, you know, go find some lists top

Unknown Speaker (01:18:41.060)

twenty five super villains of all time or whatever and just read through what their

Unknown Speaker (01:18:44.579)

plans are.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:45.460)

And they all sound exactly like Bill Gates's plans.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:48.739)

It really is a simple of that.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:50.739)

This guy does not have it.

Unknown Speaker (01:18:54.260)

I hate to be a dick, but this kid sucks on my political talk show news show show family

Unknown Speaker (01:19:01.619)

show.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:02.500)

I'm just going to go through some top twenty five lists of super villains.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:06.020)

Compare them to Bill Gates. Let's see what those look like. Lex Luthor. Plan number one.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:11.939)

Probably kill Superman.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:13.699)

That sounds like Bill Gates.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:15.539)

Let's see who else we got.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:16.579)

The Joker.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:17.539)

Blow up that hospital and kill Heath Ledger.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:19.939)

I don't know how that guy worked.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:21.220)

That's Bill Gates.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:22.180)

I am going to play this clip of him talking about the thing where he forgets markets.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:25.699)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:26.260)

After all, because he deserves he deserves us to actually look at some of his ideas.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:32.020)

Otherwise, we're just going to be laughing at how many top twenty five lists are we going

Unknown Speaker (01:19:35.380)

to have to go not in this clip, although he does bring up some villains.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:38.020)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:38.579)

Here's the amazing thing you can watch.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:39.939)

There's a interview with Mike Wallace and the creator of Planned Parenthood, whatever

Unknown Speaker (01:19:46.260)

her demonic name is.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:47.939)

And this was in the 1950s and she was pushing population control because of overpopulation.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:53.300)

They were terrified of overpopulation.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:55.060)

It's going to double in this long.

Unknown Speaker (01:19:56.340)

And of course, what actually happened was that the global population far exceeded their

Unknown Speaker (01:20:01.699)

most dire predictions.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:02.739)

We have way more people on earth than they ever thought was possible.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:05.380)

And things are going great.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:06.899)

Less poverty, less starvation than we ever have had before.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:10.100)

Of course, if we'd followed their suggestions back in the 1950s, maybe the person who invented

Unknown Speaker (01:20:16.579)

the crop technique that allowed people to be fed and allowed the population to grow,

Unknown Speaker (01:20:21.380)

maybe they would have never been born.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:22.899)

You just can't manipulate the human race in the way these people think that you can.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:27.460)

So the stuff about predictions for population growth is a really complicated thing, and

Unknown Speaker (01:20:31.939)

it's never really just about population.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:34.020)

It's also about resources and all these things.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:36.340)

I don't really want to get into it.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:37.859)

I don't think he has a handle on the topic.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:39.939)

Also, apparently Harrison didn't get the memo that Alex is really trying to play up caring

Unknown Speaker (01:20:44.100)

about hunger in the developing world.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:45.779)

So it might not be a good idea for him to come on the show and say there's less starvation

Unknown Speaker (01:20:49.140)

than ever.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:49.859)

Kind of undercuts that whole we care thing.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:52.260)

He might as well have been like, because the World Health Organization is willing to put

Unknown Speaker (01:20:56.020)

more...

Unknown Speaker (01:20:56.340)

Oh, no.

Unknown Speaker (01:20:57.779)

Now, it's funny that he forgot Margaret Sanger's name.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:00.100)

That's hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:01.060)

But the reason I remembered that I wanted to pull this clip is because it shows me how

Unknown Speaker (01:21:05.300)

weird this dork Harrison Smith is.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:08.340)

I think what put me over the edge is his theory that population control measures, like family

Unknown Speaker (01:21:12.340)

planning or birth control, might make it so the guy who invented some crop technique may

Unknown Speaker (01:21:16.819)

never be born.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:18.180)

This is so weird on a bunch of levels.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:21.460)

For one, it implies a belief in hard pre-determinism.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:25.699)

One person was destined to make that crop technique, and because their parents used

Unknown Speaker (01:21:29.220)

a condom, now no one gets that crop technique.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:31.539)

See, there you go.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:32.260)

This is a super weird way to look at the world, and it only makes him even more of a bummer,

Unknown Speaker (01:21:37.300)

kind of, if you think about it.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:39.060)

He was predestined to be the eighth banana at Infowars as the ship sinks.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:43.380)

Everything in his life was meant to lead to him being the guy even I will forget about

Unknown Speaker (01:21:47.300)

six months after Alex goes out of business.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:49.140)

I bet he wishes his parents used a condom.

Unknown Speaker (01:21:51.859)

The second part of this that's super weird is to be totally sure that we don't miss out

Unknown Speaker (01:21:57.220)

on any of these people being born who are predestined to come up with these crop techniques.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:00.979)

What should we do?

Unknown Speaker (01:22:02.100)

Should all contraceptives be outlawed?

Unknown Speaker (01:22:04.260)

But what about masturbation?

Unknown Speaker (01:22:05.859)

One of those sperms might be the crop technique guy, you know?

Unknown Speaker (01:22:08.420)

That's true.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:09.060)

You can't risk it.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:10.020)

Well, that's why the Bible outlawed it.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:12.500)

If you take Harrison's weird thoughts to their logical conclusion, no one can masturbate,

Unknown Speaker (01:22:16.579)

you can only have sex to procreate, and people need to be pregnant as much as possible.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:20.739)

Either that, or he doesn't actually care about that crop technique guy getting born as much

Unknown Speaker (01:22:24.340)

as he's pretending he does.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:25.460)

My guess is this is just standard anti-abortion thinking being delivered by a very, very weird

Unknown Speaker (01:22:31.619)

dork.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:32.180)

Yeah, that's the same, somehow that's like the, if abortion was legal, we wouldn't have

Unknown Speaker (01:22:37.699)

gotten Albert Einstein and all that shit, but it's for just some random...

Unknown Speaker (01:22:42.180)

But even then, the stuff was there.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:45.859)

Relativity existed without Albert Einstein.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:48.659)

If he didn't discover it, somebody else fucking would have.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:52.180)

The great man theory of history is fucking stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:22:54.260)

Totally, and there's so many things that we know one person as the father of, or mother

Unknown Speaker (01:23:01.300)

of, or inventor.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:02.260)

But it was a team of thousands working for years.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:05.220)

Either that, or there were parallel thinking in unrelated groups that were coming to the

Unknown Speaker (01:23:10.979)

development around the same time, or on different timelines.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:14.899)

Or it was a woman who did it and the man stole the credit.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:17.140)

There's a lot of this stuff.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:18.739)

I mean, yeah, pretending that like, oh, if one person wasn't born, the thing that they

Unknown Speaker (01:23:24.420)

invent wouldn't have happened is silly.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:27.220)

The only person.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:28.340)

And quite frankly, like, okay, necessity is the mother of invention, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:23:32.260)

We all say that, that's a nice term, maybe Harrison can work it in at some point.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:35.539)

Abortion is the deadbeat dad of invention.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:38.579)

If someone isn't born, the world exists without their presence.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:44.420)

Whatever need that they were responding to to develop an invention exists in the absence

Unknown Speaker (01:23:49.779)

of them being there.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:50.819)

You would think that someone else would work on the problem and maybe came, oh god, this

Unknown Speaker (01:23:54.579)

guy is a fucking weirdo.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:55.460)

Too stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:56.340)

Fucking weirdo.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:57.220)

These people are so stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:23:58.739)

So Harrison wants to talk more about super villains.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:00.500)

Of course he does.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:01.060)

And this is so, oh god, I loved it.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:03.619)

This made me laugh out loud.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:05.380)

Satan, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:24:06.500)

The old school, the classic, the Doctor Doom of the Bible.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:09.859)

His whole plan, of course, as we know from revelations, is to microchip everybody, track

Unknown Speaker (01:24:15.460)

everyone, keep everyone in a one world government.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:17.859)

I mean, this stuff is laid out in that wonderful book known as the Bible.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:22.420)

The wonderful book known as the Bible.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:26.020)

Go home.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:26.819)

Go home, Harrison.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:28.020)

Go home.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:29.220)

Go home.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:29.779)

Just go home.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:30.739)

You and Alex both need to be off air, but for different reasons.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:33.539)

Yes, the Doctor Doom, the original, the OG super villain.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:40.579)

Some people like to think of hell as Latveria.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:43.859)

Oh my god, what are we, what are we doing?

Unknown Speaker (01:24:46.420)

This is what we're dealing with.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:47.619)

Now, this is where my mind got blown.

Unknown Speaker (01:24:50.100)

So we know from a, I hate to call it this because it sounds very navel-gazey, but a

Unknown Speaker (01:24:55.699)

legendary episode of our podcast that Alex has a very interesting interpretation of the

Unknown Speaker (01:24:59.859)

Watchmen.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:00.340)

He does.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:00.979)

He, first of all, doesn't know Ozymandias' name.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:03.140)

Ozymandamus.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:04.260)

And at the same time thinks that the movie was positing that Ozymandias was the good

Unknown Speaker (01:25:10.420)

guy and Rorschach was the bad guy.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:12.020)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:12.739)

It turns out this might be a very common interpretation at Infowars.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:17.619)

It's interesting because you're talking about these super villains and it's making

Unknown Speaker (01:25:19.939)

me think of the Watchmen, which is a great movie.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:22.340)

I never read the comic, but the movie, I really enjoyed the movie.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:24.979)

And I can't think of the villain's name in that.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:27.859)

It was, I think he named himself after an Egyptian pharaoh or something like that.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:32.899)

But the character that was trying to expose the plan, Rorschach, was sort of painted as

Unknown Speaker (01:25:38.979)

like a lowlife villain scum for as if the message of that movie that I thought when

Unknown Speaker (01:25:45.779)

I watched it was, was keep your mouth shut and don't try to expose this because it's

Unknown Speaker (01:25:50.180)

a necessary plan.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:51.300)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:51.539)

You don't understand.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:52.500)

You're just a little cretin down there that doesn't understand the big brain plans

Unknown Speaker (01:25:56.899)

that we have.

Unknown Speaker (01:25:58.020)

You guys don't understand complex storytelling.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:00.659)

That is bad.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:01.300)

Maybe you should read the comic book.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:02.659)

That is a good idea.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:03.619)

But also, I think you'd get that message from the movie.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:06.100)

I don't think they can read.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:07.220)

I don't think they can read.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:09.380)

Yeah, no.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:10.180)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:10.659)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:11.140)

That view of Rorschach is correct from the perspective of Ozymandias.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:15.220)

There you go.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:16.819)

So there are different points.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:17.699)

So you're saying that you can, there are different points of view.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:20.500)

And if you're analyzing a text, you want to.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:23.300)

Oh, my God.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:24.340)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:24.819)

Why?

Unknown Speaker (01:26:25.140)

What?

Unknown Speaker (01:26:25.460)

How remarkable is it that we are being defeated and are unable to outsmart people who read

Unknown Speaker (01:26:31.699)

at a third grade level?

Unknown Speaker (01:26:33.060)

It's fascinating.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:33.779)

This is bad.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:34.500)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:34.899)

This is bad.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:35.619)

So Greg Reese believes that Ozymandias was the good guy.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:38.340)

Yes, of course.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:39.140)

In the movie.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:39.699)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:40.180)

And it turns out, I don't know if Harrison knows any better either.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:43.779)

It's emblematic, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:26:45.460)

Everything, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, any major work of fiction that captures the

Unknown Speaker (01:26:50.420)

imagination of mankind has this in it.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:53.060)

People just don't recognize that in The Matrix, the machines are the bad guys.

Unknown Speaker (01:26:57.939)

The orcs are the bad guys.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:01.220)

Who doesn't?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:01.859)

What are we doing?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:03.779)

What is happening?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:07.060)

What is happening?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:08.180)

Who doesn't recognize that the machines are the bad guys in The Matrix?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:13.779)

Who doesn't, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:14.420)

Who's like, who's cheered for the orcs?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:20.340)

These dumb dumbs.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:21.939)

Why is it even?

Unknown Speaker (01:27:22.819)

It is not.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:25.539)

Just it was very, it was made very clear just by physical appearance.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:29.859)

The elves are the physical embodiment of beauty and the orcs are hideous murder creatures.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:36.180)

I mean.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:36.659)

We get it.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:37.460)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:37.939)

It's not hard.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:38.979)

Let's leave that one aside for a second because I think you get into Tolkien's complex and

Unknown Speaker (01:27:44.180)

unfortunate racist views.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:46.020)

I think it's very racist.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:47.300)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:48.020)

Let's just talk about The Matrix and the machines.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:50.260)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:51.300)

The machines are the good guys according to Agent Smith.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:55.539)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:55.859)

Or the architect or The Matrix itself.

Unknown Speaker (01:27:59.380)

Those guys.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:00.260)

But the story is that they're bad.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:02.899)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:03.220)

The movie's POV is through Neo being the savior.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:06.979)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:07.619)

He, didn't he do that whole pose whenever he was sacrificing himself for the survival

Unknown Speaker (01:28:16.180)

of the...

Unknown Speaker (01:28:17.220)

Yeah, but he's the bad guy.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:18.180)

The machines are the good guys.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:19.859)

Oh shit.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:20.340)

Was he in an upside down cross whenever he did that?

Unknown Speaker (01:28:23.380)

Now that's a different, that's a different interpretation.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:26.420)

God damn, these people are dumb.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:27.699)

That's insane.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:28.500)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:28.739)

That's insane.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:29.699)

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:32.260)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:32.579)

Listening to that is like, who makes you?

Unknown Speaker (01:28:35.460)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:36.100)

Where do you come from?

Unknown Speaker (01:28:37.779)

So they get to talking about the virus and the transmission rate of it.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:42.260)

And man, these people are so fucking stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:44.819)

They say, okay, we're going to make this chart.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:46.500)

It's based on R, which is the rate of transmissibility or whatever they said.

Unknown Speaker (01:28:51.939)

And then they're asked, so what exactly is, you know, do you know what the value of R

Unknown Speaker (01:28:55.380)

is?

Unknown Speaker (01:28:55.539)

And they say, well, the scientists say there is no possible way to know what the value

Unknown Speaker (01:28:59.539)

of R is.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:00.420)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:00.739)

So you're shutting down the government based on this chart that's based off of this value

Unknown Speaker (01:29:04.659)

that you admit you don't know how to calculate.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:07.060)

Just what is going on?

Unknown Speaker (01:29:08.899)

Was I missing something here, Greg?

Unknown Speaker (01:29:10.340)

Or did I hear that correctly?

Unknown Speaker (01:29:11.699)

No, that's true.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:12.260)

And if you watch the full video, they get into asking the question, why are they calling

Unknown Speaker (01:29:15.939)

it R?

Unknown Speaker (01:29:16.340)

Because the actual mathematic equation is R naught.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:20.579)

And that, and they're not saying...

Unknown Speaker (01:29:22.180)

R2.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:22.659)

They're in this full hour, they're actually saying, are they just abbreviating it or are

Unknown Speaker (01:29:27.460)

they creating a new definition?

Unknown Speaker (01:29:29.779)

So to answer these gentlemen's questions, I will start with Greg Reese's concern.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:34.020)

There are two possibilities.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:35.380)

It could be that the people he's talking about were abbreviating R naught to R for the sake

Unknown Speaker (01:29:39.300)

of brevity and smoother conversation.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:41.060)

I wouldn't be too surprised if that was the case.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:43.380)

However, it's also possible they just met R. R naught is the basic reproduction number

Unknown Speaker (01:29:49.380)

for an illness, which is to say that it represents the average number of infections you

Unknown Speaker (01:29:52.579)

would expect to be the result of one infected person.

Unknown Speaker (01:29:55.380)

If R naught for a condition is two, then each person infected will likely infect two additional

Unknown Speaker (01:30:00.180)

people on average.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:01.699)

This is a concrete number that is characteristic of an infectious disease, and it is not affected

Unknown Speaker (01:30:06.180)

by the development of treatments or preventions.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:08.260)

It's just intrinsic to the condition.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:10.979)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:11.859)

R, on the other hand, is the variable that's used to describe a disease's effective reproduction

Unknown Speaker (01:30:17.060)

rate.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:17.699)

This number takes into account that some people are immune to conditions, maybe because they're

Unknown Speaker (01:30:21.539)

vaccinated.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:22.260)

So a proportion of the population won't end up getting infected, even if they're exposed

Unknown Speaker (01:30:26.420)

to a sick person.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:27.699)

You calculate this by taking R naught and multiplying it by the proportion of the population

Unknown Speaker (01:30:31.859)

that is able to come down with a particular condition.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:34.899)

In the case of the coronavirus, it doesn't seem like we have any good idea about large

Unknown Speaker (01:30:38.420)

swaths of the population who are immune, so it kind of looks like R and R naught are basically

Unknown Speaker (01:30:43.060)

the same thing here.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:44.260)

I know everything is a conspiracy at Infowars, but this one's a fucking dud.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:47.699)

As for Harrison's question about whether or not he missed something, he did.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:52.180)

When someone says they can't definitively nail down the value of R, that's not to say

Unknown Speaker (01:30:56.180)

that they can't get a pretty good sense of it from available data.

Unknown Speaker (01:30:59.699)

With better data, as provided by things like increased testing, we could get an even better

Unknown Speaker (01:31:03.460)

sense of the reproduction number of this new virus that we're really just playing catch

Unknown Speaker (01:31:06.899)

up with.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:07.859)

Also, R naught is not the most useful metric for understanding the evolving situation with

Unknown Speaker (01:31:11.939)

the virus.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:12.819)

If Harrison wants to put on this incredulous act about not understanding statistical estimation,

Unknown Speaker (01:31:17.619)

and Greg wants to accidentally reveal that he doesn't know what R is, and he only knows

Unknown Speaker (01:31:22.899)

about R naught because he overheard the health ranger say it, then I hope they're having

Unknown Speaker (01:31:26.340)

a good time doing it.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:27.460)

It looks really sad from where I'm sitting though.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:29.460)

Well, you know.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:30.260)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:30.899)

It's a stunning lack of curiosity.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:33.060)

Yeah, and it's just like, oh, why are you bringing up these concerns?

Unknown Speaker (01:31:37.539)

You could just easily have looked into them.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:39.140)

I know.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:39.859)

I know.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:40.180)

This is a situation where on air you want to have somebody be like, well, let me Google

Unknown Speaker (01:31:45.220)

that for you.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:46.260)

You asked a question.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:47.699)

Look for the answer.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:48.739)

Don't just be incredulous.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:50.100)

It's a constant thing with Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:52.180)

I mean, Alex does a better job of covering it, but it's incredibly blunt and transparent

Unknown Speaker (01:31:58.020)

with these dumdums that he hires.

Unknown Speaker (01:31:59.619)

Dan brought up some great points.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:01.060)

Thank you, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:02.100)

You should fire all these people.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:03.380)

Yeah, that's a great point.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:04.579)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:06.659)

Fire them.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:07.539)

Fire them, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:09.939)

Yeah, it's going to be abused.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:12.180)

There's no doubt.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:13.619)

So Harrison and Greg spin their wheels for a little bit longer, and they start covering

Unknown Speaker (01:32:20.899)

on the important news of the day, like really important stuff.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:23.779)

Top 25 super villains.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:24.819)

This video was actually tweeted out by Michelle Malkin, and she tweeted out saying that the

Unknown Speaker (01:32:28.659)

account that originally posted the video was deleted off Twitter, and the video is quickly

Unknown Speaker (01:32:33.619)

deleted off Twitter.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:34.500)

So I figured, hey, if Twitter's deleting this video, it's probably something that our audience

Unknown Speaker (01:32:38.579)

would want to know about.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:39.699)

So right there, that's the stupidest fucking mentality I've ever heard.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:42.979)

The stupidest fucking mentality you can possibly have.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:44.739)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:45.220)

This is the Alex Jones school of shitty reasoning, where consequences or pushback is misinterpreted

Unknown Speaker (01:32:49.779)

as virtue.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:50.739)

Harrison Smith couldn't phrase it more transparently or more pathetically.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:54.020)

If it got kicked off Twitter, then I figure it must be worth reporting on.

Unknown Speaker (01:32:58.659)

I think it's pretty easy to see how this line of reasoning goes astray pretty quickly.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:02.579)

Just because something was kicked off Twitter, that doesn't mean it has any value.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:05.699)

There are plenty of reasons something might get booted, like if there's a copyright claim.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:08.979)

Does every video that gets DMCA'd suddenly become relevant to report on?

Unknown Speaker (01:33:12.579)

That makes it something I'm worth looking into.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:15.220)

Obviously not.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:16.180)

But right now, the overarching narrative is that the globalists are desperately trying

Unknown Speaker (01:33:19.539)

to shut down any real information that's getting out, so any time anything gets kicked off

Unknown Speaker (01:33:23.380)

anything, it has an increased market value at Infowars.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:26.739)

I had no idea what this video is, so I decided to check out Michelle Malkin's Twitter, and

Unknown Speaker (01:33:30.819)

oh boy, nothing but red flags.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:33.939)

There's a video of a recent interview she did with Gavin McGinnis, then a retweet of

Unknown Speaker (01:33:37.619)

a VDARE video where they're doing an interview with Cassandra Fairbanks, and then an interview

Unknown Speaker (01:33:42.100)

that she did with Laura Loomer.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:43.779)

A whole lot of no thanks on that page.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:46.260)

A lot of bad work by Malkin.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:48.340)

All the words you just said made my eyes run red with blood, and I just hear sirens, just

Unknown Speaker (01:33:54.020)

screeching pains in the back of my head, like I'm in Kill Bill.

Unknown Speaker (01:33:59.140)

So I found this video, and the account that posted it is still up, as is the video.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:03.300)

It's just a group of like 40 people in Ireland in the middle of what appears to be a field

Unknown Speaker (01:34:07.140)

holding up signs against vaccines.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:09.380)

Honestly, more of their signs seem to be anti-media, like things like, quote, the media is the

Unknown Speaker (01:34:13.859)

virus, and quote, RTE is the virus, which is a channel in Ireland.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:18.659)

The video has not been removed, nor is the account, but by pretending that it was, Harrison

Unknown Speaker (01:34:22.659)

can pretend this is somehow threatening to his imaginary enemies, which is just sad.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:26.340)

These guys.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:27.140)

This is pathetic.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:28.180)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:28.579)

This is really sad.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:29.539)

It really started to bum me out, and then this came on.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:33.140)

I've been so busy fighting the globalists and working on some inside baseball stuff

Unknown Speaker (01:34:36.579)

that I'm taking off the next few days to work on the Bill Gates film and to get a bunch

Unknown Speaker (01:34:40.979)

of other projects completed and major investigative journalism.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:44.180)

And so I've been so busy, we haven't had time to come up with a new special.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:47.859)

We have to end this big mega sale in a couple days.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:49.699)

We've extended it because a bunch of our best-selling items are selling out.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:52.819)

Vitamineral Fusion, by the time you watch this, will be sold out.

Unknown Speaker (01:34:55.619)

So while these guys have been on air, or while that video was playing on this episode, Alex

Unknown Speaker (01:35:00.500)

recorded this shot of him saying, I'm taking some time off and also hereby this shit.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:05.140)

So this plays, and I realize it's another hour of Gregory and Harrison.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:09.939)

I'm out.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:10.420)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:10.659)

I'm out.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:11.060)

No, can't do it.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:11.699)

I can't do it.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:12.260)

Can't do it.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:12.739)

So we end this, and now we go to the 20th.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:15.140)

Where he will not be on because he just announced that he would be taking some time off.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:18.819)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:19.460)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:19.779)

So the show starts.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:21.220)

Hi, I'm your host, Alex Jones, and we stand at the prep-sippus of the end of...

Unknown Speaker (01:35:26.819)

Prep-sippus?

Unknown Speaker (01:35:28.420)

The information we're about to cover in the next four hours is the most important information

Unknown Speaker (01:35:33.779)

ever revealed on air in the history of human communications.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:38.979)

This is the most important information in all of communication?

Unknown Speaker (01:35:41.859)

Alex, you've got to be joking.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:44.020)

That is not a joke.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:45.619)

I don't know, man.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:46.739)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:47.300)

You're having a great time today.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:49.060)

You are having a great time with your clips today.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:51.060)

This is the way that you dealt with your house being...

Unknown Speaker (01:35:54.260)

Do you mean...

Unknown Speaker (01:35:54.979)

Perhaps.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:55.460)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:55.699)

Perhaps.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:56.659)

So that's apparently not a joke.

Unknown Speaker (01:35:58.260)

The most important communication of all human history.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:01.060)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:01.300)

Alex talks about nothing for a couple of minutes, and then Owen Schroyer and David Knight take

Unknown Speaker (01:36:06.579)

over, so I'm out.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:07.380)

Really?

Unknown Speaker (01:36:07.859)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:08.340)

Really?

Unknown Speaker (01:36:08.899)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:09.380)

No, that's not true.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:10.579)

That can't be true.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:11.619)

Yeah, no, it is.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:12.420)

You can't open your broadcast like that.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:14.180)

No, he had to, because he knows that no one's gonna watch if those two are on, but if he

Unknown Speaker (01:36:17.859)

sells it as the most important communication of all human history, maybe they'll stick

Unknown Speaker (01:36:21.699)

around for that dumb-dumb, boring, old asshole.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:24.180)

If David Knight is involved with the most important communication in humankind's history,

Unknown Speaker (01:36:28.739)

I quit.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:29.699)

I quit. I'm killing myself that day.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:33.060)

I'm out.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:33.619)

So Alex leaves, but I can't listen to any more of that show, because Owen and David

Unknown Speaker (01:36:37.859)

can go get bent.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:39.619)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:40.979)

And apparently now Harrison will also be in that list of automatic turn-off.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:45.380)

Yeah, get the fuck out of here.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:46.979)

So we get to the 21st, and Alex is also supposed to be gone again.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:50.180)

Well, naturally.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:50.899)

And he's not.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:51.859)

He is there for about the first 45 minutes of the show, because there's big news.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:55.619)

There isn't!

Unknown Speaker (01:36:56.579)

There is big news.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:57.460)

Oh, okay.

Unknown Speaker (01:36:58.100)

As any regular listener or viewer knows, I could care less about Hollywood.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:02.819)

In fact, I hate it.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:03.699)

I could care less about $100 million deals.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:06.340)

I could care less about Spotify stock being up $4 million if it was just in the normal

Unknown Speaker (01:37:11.140)

course of business.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:12.340)

But with all the huge news we've got, and the fact that I'm supposed to be taken off

Unknown Speaker (01:37:16.739)

the show to work on the Bill Gates documentary, and take the kids hiking, I'll work on it

Unknown Speaker (01:37:23.539)

because of this.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:24.340)

Joe called me yesterday.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:27.220)

We talked about 45 minutes, and I've known him 22 years, and he has never spilled his

Unknown Speaker (01:37:34.420)

guts to me like he did.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:35.779)

And I mean, there's been times when we both had like two bottles of liquor and been up

Unknown Speaker (01:37:40.180)

for a day and a half in Vegas, and we didn't spill guts like this.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:44.420)

Sounds like Coke to me.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:45.460)

But yes, so what happened is that Joe Rogan signed an exclusivity deal with Spotify for

Unknown Speaker (01:37:53.220)

$100 plus million, and Alex needs to make this about himself.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:56.739)

He did what?

Unknown Speaker (01:37:57.619)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:37:57.939)

For $100 plus million?

Unknown Speaker (01:38:00.020)

Good on Rogan, I guess.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:01.380)

It's a smart business decision, particularly the way that YouTube is starting to become

Unknown Speaker (01:38:08.340)

more of, you know, there's a lot more advertiser demands that are being made.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:14.420)

I think you hear this from a number of channels, that they're having difficulty relying on

Unknown Speaker (01:38:20.260)

YouTube to be like a rock for them.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:24.020)

Some things are getting demonetized.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:25.619)

Some things are just not as lucrative as they were.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:28.659)

And that's just like a piece of YouTube's business changing its focus from where it

Unknown Speaker (01:38:34.020)

was in the past.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:35.699)

And I think if you're Rogan, like that is where most of your shit is.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:39.699)

Hell yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:40.260)

It's a really smart decision to instead of having this vulnerability to the possibility

Unknown Speaker (01:38:45.619)

of ad revenues going down, you just get a payday out of this deal with Spotify and now

Unknown Speaker (01:38:52.180)

you're set.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:52.819)

Perfect.

Unknown Speaker (01:38:53.460)

Now, the problem with this is that a lot of people don't like this, this sort of thing.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:00.739)

There have been other podcasts that have gone to exclusive deals in the past and have lost

Unknown Speaker (01:39:07.220)

a considerable amount of their fan base.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:09.539)

I know that the last podcast on the left, there was some backlash to them going Spotify

Unknown Speaker (01:39:14.979)

exclusive because people don't like the idea that you have to get an app in order to get

Unknown Speaker (01:39:20.260)

this content that you've become acclimated to getting.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:22.500)

Yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:23.060)

You will, I think that Rogan has a big enough base that he can probably handle some loss,

Unknown Speaker (01:39:30.180)

but you might end up seeing a pretty serious diminishment of his audience and you might

Unknown Speaker (01:39:36.180)

see a backlash from some of them to resent the idea of like, I got to download this app

Unknown Speaker (01:39:41.060)

from this other business in order to get your content.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:43.380)

Fuck you, man.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:43.939)

Yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:39:44.579)

Because at the end of the day, quite honestly, if you want to take a cynical view, what has

Unknown Speaker (01:39:50.899)

happened is that over the last decade or however long Joe's been doing the podcast, he has

Unknown Speaker (01:39:55.380)

built up an audience on a free, openly available platform that has grown to the point where

Unknown Speaker (01:40:01.060)

he now sees he can sell them.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:02.819)

He sold it to Spotify.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:04.260)

He sold his audience to Spotify as subscribers.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:08.579)

Whether or not it's the premium accounts or not is kind of irrelevant.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:11.859)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:12.260)

You now are a Spotify consumer.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:14.500)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:15.539)

And if you want to listen to a show without ads interrupting all the time, you probably

Unknown Speaker (01:40:19.460)

got to get premium.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:20.180)

Yep, yep, yep.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:20.979)

So there is like this, the way I look at it as a creator, I kind of do look at it as you

Unknown Speaker (01:40:26.899)

created this audience and now you're selling them to this company.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:29.539)

But I think a more generous version of it could, and also looking at it as a creator,

Unknown Speaker (01:40:34.979)

the struggle that Joe Rogan would be in with the uncertainty of like, he makes millions

Unknown Speaker (01:40:41.220)

of dollars on that podcast.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:42.739)

The idea of that going away because of changes in YouTube structure or whatever is ridiculous.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:49.220)

He is in a position where, take that fucking hundred million dollar deal, you're probably

Unknown Speaker (01:40:53.300)

doing what you need to do.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:54.579)

But it could be destructive to him.

Unknown Speaker (01:40:56.739)

And it also could set a precedent where a lot of other podcasts feel like they can do

Unknown Speaker (01:41:00.579)

this.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:01.140)

And it could actually have an erosive and corrosive effect on podcasting in general.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:07.140)

I'm not entirely sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:07.939)

You got to see how things play out.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:09.300)

It could be a blip and could be nothing, but it could actually have some negative consequences

Unknown Speaker (01:41:13.380)

towards other people who have cottage industries of their own.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:17.380)

But we'll see.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:18.579)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:19.140)

As far as that business model is concerned, it does seem like podcasting is being consolidated

Unknown Speaker (01:41:25.779)

the same way that other media has been consolidated over time.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:29.859)

I think that radio, clear channel, all of that stuff, it's all owned by podcast media

Unknown Speaker (01:41:35.619)

companies and then they got sold to other bigger companies.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:39.699)

There is that.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:40.579)

There is definite consolidation because it's a very lucrative place to sell marketing and

Unknown Speaker (01:41:45.699)

ads.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:46.340)

Only as long as it's consolidated.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:49.380)

To an extent, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:50.739)

It's a captive audience of people who have a built up amount of trust and rapport with

Unknown Speaker (01:41:55.699)

audiences.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:56.260)

There's an intimacy to it.

Unknown Speaker (01:41:58.260)

And those are people who are fertile marketing grounds for companies.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:02.500)

So of course there's going to be consolidation of it.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:04.819)

It's such a new, relatively new form of media that why wouldn't there be?

Unknown Speaker (01:42:09.859)

It's a process that happens and it's just weird that somebody who doesn't need it necessarily

Unknown Speaker (01:42:15.140)

and could do things completely independently would do it.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:18.979)

But also you understand why it's fucking $100 million.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:21.140)

I mean yeah, $100 million is $100 million.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:23.140)

$100 million guaranteed as opposed to whatever.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:26.500)

Anyway, Alex needs to make this story about himself and so he does.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:29.699)

I do now hate Joe Rogan for an extra reason though, which is that he has $100 million.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:34.899)

Go fuck yourself, Joe Rogan.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:36.420)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:36.819)

How dare you pretend to have any positions when you have $100 million fucking dollars.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:41.380)

Right, right.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:41.939)

Shut up.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:42.500)

So Alex also says that Joe is going to move to Texas.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:45.859)

And I know that Joe has sort of talked about that a little bit, like the idea, but he would

Unknown Speaker (01:42:49.859)

never do that.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:51.060)

Like all of his guests are in California.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:53.779)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:42:54.260)

Like if he moves to Texas, he's got to convince Ari Shafir and Tom Segura and Tom Segura,

Unknown Speaker (01:43:00.819)

his wife, like all of their families.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:02.899)

Christina P.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:03.779)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:04.020)

He's got to get Bert Kreischer to move out.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:06.180)

Bert Kreischer's not going anywhere.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:07.939)

Although if he was going to move.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:09.380)

If he was going to move.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:10.020)

Joey Diaz has got to move to Texas.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:13.619)

Jug Sandhope is still pretty close by.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:15.460)

He's still living in that trailer in what, Arizona or Oklahoma or whatever?

Unknown Speaker (01:43:18.579)

He doesn't make up for all of the, and all the celebrities that he has on.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:22.579)

Like there's in the world where everything is done on Skype calls or on zoom.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:29.619)

Yeah, maybe.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:30.819)

But I think that his podcast doesn't work nearly as well over, because everyone's like

Unknown Speaker (01:43:35.619)

sitting around shooting the shit.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:36.819)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:38.020)

And he wouldn't be able to do that.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:39.380)

There needs to be a certain energy in the room.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:41.300)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:41.539)

Yeah, definitely.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:42.500)

So if he were to move to Texas, it would be at the detriment of his own show.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:46.100)

And I don't, I don't see that happening, but who knows?

Unknown Speaker (01:43:48.260)

Although now that he's got that a hundred million dollars, fuck it.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:50.579)

He's already, you know, he's guaranteed.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:52.260)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:43:52.739)

I'm going to do a podcast where I sit down and really get to the bottom of various people

Unknown Speaker (01:43:57.460)

from town.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:00.659)

We've got, uh, Terry, she's the church deacon.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:03.300)

How are you feeling today?

Unknown Speaker (01:44:04.340)

Terry ratings tanking my deal.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:07.140)

Guaranteed.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:07.939)

Hey, fuck you.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:10.100)

So anyway, uh, you know, Joe has said that he might move to Texas and it turns out there's

Unknown Speaker (01:44:14.579)

some other people who are talking about moving to Texas.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:16.979)

And these people are thought leaders, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:44:20.420)

This is bigger than Joe Rogan.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:22.100)

The number one podcast in the world, it's about free expression and it's about the dominoes

Unknown Speaker (01:44:26.260)

falling.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:27.060)

And it's about the fact that Dave Rubin, Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, they're all moving to Austin

Unknown Speaker (01:44:33.859)

and they're classical liberals, not leftist authoritarians.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:37.939)

And they're trying to escape the left.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:39.779)

And with thought leaders like that, we could get the left to finally wake up to a great

Unknown Speaker (01:44:44.579)

extent about what schmucks they are.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:46.260)

So to that, I, all I have to say is good luck with leaders.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:49.939)

Like Joe Rogan, Dave Rubin and Elon Musk.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:53.380)

Oh boy.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:55.060)

Thought leaders.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:55.699)

Good stuff.

Unknown Speaker (01:44:56.579)

So this Rogan thing is big and that's why Alex had to come into the studio.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:00.100)

It was big when we had Trump on.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:02.020)

I wasn't nervous at all.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:03.539)

Not nervous when I talked to Trump on the phone.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:05.140)

It's important.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:05.779)

Trump's important.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:07.300)

This Joe Rogan thing is way bigger.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:10.739)

It, when I look at the tea leaves and the psychic imprint, you could say makes me have

Unknown Speaker (01:45:16.739)

not chills at the back chills in my third eye.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:19.460)

I mean, I'm having chills right here right now.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:21.539)

I've never had that before.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:22.739)

And your third eye get cold?

Unknown Speaker (01:45:23.859)

This is a tremor in the force.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:25.939)

The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:28.899)

Nailed it.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:29.460)

He's a big enchilada.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:32.659)

And I said, Joe, you sure you want me to go in there and say all this?

Unknown Speaker (01:45:35.060)

Cause he's, he's, he's, I'm getting the big story because I'm in the story.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:39.220)

And this is a story about all of us when we come back.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:42.260)

He's got so much big news today, but believe me, you do not want to miss this transmission.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:46.579)

So Alex's whole thing is that like Joe Rogan is like, uh, he's getting picked on by the

Unknown Speaker (01:45:51.300)

YouTube.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:51.699)

People are telling him, he can't say things that he's seen these doctors get censored.

Unknown Speaker (01:45:55.939)

And, and so that's why you decided to go to Spotify as opposed to probably just a hundred

Unknown Speaker (01:46:00.180)

million dollars.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:00.979)

Good business concerns a hundred million dollars.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:04.020)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:04.579)

So I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:05.859)

And Alex has also said that Rogan told him he's his first guest whenever he, uh, get

Unknown Speaker (01:46:10.659)

the fuck out of here.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:11.380)

Come on.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:12.819)

Anyway, we're not doing another Rogan poke.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:15.140)

Yeah, we are.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:15.699)

Oh, God damn it.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:16.500)

There we are.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:17.220)

God.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:17.539)

Anytime Alex is on there.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:19.060)

Got to do it.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:19.699)

I hate it.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:20.739)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:21.140)

I hate them both.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:22.340)

So in this next clip, Alex, uh, has some inside baseball, but it's conversation with,

Unknown Speaker (01:46:26.659)

uh, Mr.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:27.380)

Rogan.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:27.859)

And Joe told me about his plans and I told him, I said, this is hardcore, man.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:32.180)

You really want me to tell people this?

Unknown Speaker (01:46:33.619)

He said, yeah, no, I want you to go on air and tell everybody this.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:37.300)

And that doesn't sound right.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:42.260)

Joe's always tried to stay politically neutral.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:44.260)

And he tried to get along with the left and they have acted like total monsters and he's

Unknown Speaker (01:46:49.779)

done with them and he doesn't care what they do.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:52.100)

He's coming after him.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:54.100)

So that's what's exciting.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:56.020)

That's he's going after the left.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:57.699)

He's going after the left.

Unknown Speaker (01:46:58.979)

That is what's exciting.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:00.340)

That's great.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:01.539)

Very excited by that.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:02.500)

The last, uh, I checked his page.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:04.979)

Patton Oswald was the last guy.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:06.579)

Well, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:07.060)

And he's gone after him.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:08.739)

He's going after him for all those lefty beliefs.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:11.460)

Whatever, whatever, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:13.619)

So Alex talks about this a lot and it's like, Rogan is, this is a seismic event.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:18.579)

All this shit.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:19.539)

Um, and then he says this, this is really weird.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:22.500)

And so people are now finding God.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:24.739)

I had a long, I can't get into that.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:26.739)

Sorry.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:27.460)

Um, a certain well-known person, um, talked to me about Jesus quite a bit the other day

Unknown Speaker (01:47:32.659)

and how much God has empowered them and how they trust fully in God.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:37.140)

He's talking about Roger Stone.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:38.340)

So a lot of good things are happening.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:40.260)

I'm talking about a major leader.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:41.619)

I'm guessing it's Roger Stone.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:42.739)

It has to be Roger Stone.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:43.619)

I saw that news story where Roger Stone found Jesus or whatever.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:47.380)

Like that's what it is.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:49.699)

There's nothing more transparent than Roger Stone saying you found Jesus.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:54.500)

Alex could see Roger as a major leader.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:56.340)

Yeah, totally.

Unknown Speaker (01:47:57.060)

Um, either that or Tom Brady.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:00.020)

Bolsarno.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:00.899)

Bolsarno.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:02.180)

Could be.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:04.340)

So look, Joe Rogan is a man because he's standing up to the pressure of the globalists.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:10.500)

Has Joe Rogan ever worn a pink sweater?

Unknown Speaker (01:48:12.180)

He probably has.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:12.819)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:13.619)

Look, here's the thing.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:14.579)

A lot of people used to like Alex, but then they sold out.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:18.420)

Everybody else sells out that makes millions of dollars.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:21.300)

Stephen Colbert knows all this stuff.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:23.300)

He used to be a patriot too.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:24.340)

Do you know that?

Unknown Speaker (01:48:26.100)

Oh my God.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:27.140)

He used to be an Alex Jones fan.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:28.500)

Oh God.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:29.380)

I'm going to stop right there.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:30.579)

Come on.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:31.079)

He used to work at Comedy Central.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:34.340)

Look at Stephen Colbert now.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:35.300)

He's got to sit there and worship Bill Gates on TV and he got a bonus for that.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:40.180)

Did you know that?

Unknown Speaker (01:48:40.819)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:42.979)

Most of the people at Comedy Central hate the management and they tell us everything.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:48.180)

You're just making this stuff up.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:49.699)

Well, most of the people at Comedy Central do hate them.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:51.859)

I bet they do.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:52.420)

Imagine, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:52.979)

But most people hate management.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:54.819)

Stephen Colbert got a bonus for interviewing Bill Gates.

Unknown Speaker (01:48:57.619)

You wouldn't even be able to get that information at Comedy Central.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:00.180)

He's not on Comedy Central.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:03.619)

Does he think that Stephen Colbert's character was...

Unknown Speaker (01:49:06.739)

I think he might.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:07.779)

That's the only explanation for that, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:49:09.539)

I think so.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:10.500)

He genuinely thinks that Colbert was giving a straight-laced Colbert reporter.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:15.779)

I don't know because in the past, Alex has indicated that he realizes that satire.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:20.899)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:22.340)

Also, Colbert, he might be the kind of guy who would wear an upside-down cross.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:26.260)

And he's Catholic.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:27.619)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:28.180)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:28.579)

He's very Catholic.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:29.539)

So Alex wouldn't like that.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:30.659)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:31.140)

Anyway, Alex gets to talk on a more inside baseball and it turns out that Joe is apparently

Unknown Speaker (01:49:36.659)

making the same amount of money that he was before, but now he's free of YouTube and it's

Unknown Speaker (01:49:41.539)

against the New World Order.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:43.460)

And then, bike down for this because I want to see if you have the same feeling that I

Unknown Speaker (01:49:47.060)

have about what Alex is describing.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:49.060)

The details of Joe's deal, he's making the same amount of money, folks.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:52.739)

He's making Spotify an extra $5 billion, $4.5 billion since this deal happened.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:57.380)

And it's a big success.

Unknown Speaker (01:49:59.380)

And that's great.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:00.100)

It's in his contract.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:00.739)

He has free speech.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:01.380)

But see, that's about making the industry know if you block people's speech, you take the

Unknown Speaker (01:50:06.100)

you out of YouTube or the, you know, you out of Facebook, if you take the people out of

Unknown Speaker (01:50:11.699)

it, we will just exit us.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:13.460)

And as other companies see this, the investment will come in very quickly because the speed

Unknown Speaker (01:50:17.939)

of scalability of technology and overnight, everyone is going to move to these other platforms

Unknown Speaker (01:50:24.500)

and you'll see Alex Jones back on Spotify.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:26.739)

No, you won't.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:27.460)

But what Alex is describing is collective bargaining.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:30.500)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:30.899)

Alex is describing a union.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:32.579)

You got it.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:33.539)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:34.579)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:35.060)

Unions are very good, except for whenever I disagree with you.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:38.420)

But whenever I need a union, just like with my brother and unemployment, whenever.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:41.939)

Well, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:42.420)

When I need it, of course, of course, we should all take our labor, let's say.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:48.979)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:49.380)

And withhold it from this company because they are not following what our needs are.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:55.939)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (01:50:56.180)

Because our leverage, we have a grievance and the leverage that we have is all of us.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:02.020)

That's what we so power of man.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:04.979)

So when one of us is treated unfairly, we all withhold our labor in order to pressure

Unknown Speaker (01:51:10.819)

the the person who is wronging our brother, our brother, our sister from being able to

Unknown Speaker (01:51:17.859)

be treated fairly.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:18.739)

Blah, blah, blah.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:19.220)

And that's labor's only leverage, because if it was all him alone, then YouTube will

Unknown Speaker (01:51:24.180)

just kick him off with all Alex is describing.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:27.619)

That's all everybody wants, but they just can't.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:29.859)

But the thing is that Alex, instead of doing any kind of organizing, which someone could

Unknown Speaker (01:51:34.979)

have done at any point, like get the big creators together to stand up for people who are wronged

Unknown Speaker (01:51:41.460)

or something like that, you could do that easily.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:45.140)

Instead, they just yell about it and talk about Trump needing to take on big tech.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:49.460)

Take on big tech.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:50.260)

You put me back on Spotify, right?

Unknown Speaker (01:51:53.699)

I mean, it's nonsense.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:56.420)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:56.659)

And granted, I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:57.779)

I don't think you could ever do that.

Unknown Speaker (01:51:59.779)

I don't think it would work with YouTube, because there's so many creators that they

Unknown Speaker (01:52:03.460)

don't really like.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:04.340)

Rogan leaving is obviously a hit, but there's other people who get just as many or more

Unknown Speaker (01:52:09.460)

views as him, like food videos, like the Bon Appetit videos get millions of views pretty

Unknown Speaker (01:52:14.420)

much every single thing they put out.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:16.180)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:16.579)

So like, YouTube isn't going to be hurting from Rogan leaving.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:21.060)

But if there were a bunch of creators all banded together, maybe it would have some

Unknown Speaker (01:52:24.979)

effect.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:25.300)

But I still think it would be tough.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:26.899)

It would be tough to get the amount of leverage you would need.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:29.939)

Yeah, there's too much content.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:31.619)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:32.180)

And it's, you know, they can make a shit ton of money.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:35.460)

It's kind of like why you can't unionize comics.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:37.619)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:37.939)

Although, I mean, comics is also part of the business.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:40.739)

Yeah, yeah, that's true.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:41.619)

Everyone's a scab.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:42.500)

Well, I mean, on YouTube, everyone's a scab.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:45.539)

Yeah, that's true, too.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:46.260)

So, you know.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:47.060)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:47.859)

But idealistically, that's the kind of thing that Alex is describing, but he just would

Unknown Speaker (01:52:51.859)

never want to put it in those terms.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:53.460)

Well, that would be scary.

Unknown Speaker (01:52:54.739)

You need solidarity in order to affect any change against a company that doesn't need

Unknown Speaker (01:53:00.020)

you individually.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:01.380)

That is a fucking idiot.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:05.140)

Yep.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:05.539)

Anyway, very stupid.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:07.060)

Alex thinks of the Joe Rogan going to Spotify spells the end of the new world.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:11.220)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:11.539)

I'm going to get into all the news and Owen is going to come in here and do a great job.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:14.420)

He's got a whole broadcast.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:15.779)

But I had to come in because this was so seismic.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:18.899)

Joe Rogan calling me and saying, I want you to be the one that tells everybody what I'm

Unknown Speaker (01:53:23.380)

going to do because you were part of this story.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:25.460)

And I want folks to know that I'm not backing down.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:27.699)

That's what makes free societies.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:29.859)

That's the essence of victory.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:31.699)

That is the beginning of the collapse of the new world order.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:34.020)

One of the things I got to say is that, like, Alex better not be lying about what Rogan

Unknown Speaker (01:53:38.659)

said.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:38.979)

I'm pretty sure he's lying about what I would.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:41.060)

I would assume so.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:41.939)

It seems.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:42.500)

Yeah, but he better not be, because if I were Joe, I would consider this to be a gigantic

Unknown Speaker (01:53:48.739)

breach of some kind of trust or friendship.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:52.500)

The idea of like, Hey, I got this giant $100 million deal.

Unknown Speaker (01:53:56.020)

And Alex immediately, like the night of he went on Robert Barnes's show and talked about

Unknown Speaker (01:54:01.300)

it about how it's all about him, basically.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:03.699)

And Joe, like standing up to the cruel censors of YouTube.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:07.699)

It's like if he's going, if Alex is trying to say that he's going to war with YouTube,

Unknown Speaker (01:54:11.859)

why I read an article about this and his content is still going to be on YouTube until the

Unknown Speaker (01:54:17.859)

migration happens when the exclusivity kicks in.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:20.819)

And then after that, he's still going to have, like, 20 minute chunks of his episodes on

Unknown Speaker (01:54:25.220)

YouTube.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:25.619)

Sure.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:26.020)

Why would he still have stepping up to YouTube, taking it to him?

Unknown Speaker (01:54:28.979)

He's going to war with them.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:29.939)

Why is he going to still have content on there?

Unknown Speaker (01:54:31.699)

Well, I mean, you can't no sense.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:33.060)

You can't go to war.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:34.100)

Alex is trying to make this all about himself.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:35.859)

And if I were Joe, I would be pissed.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:37.460)

I would be furious already.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:39.460)

Like, unless this entire conversation is fabricated, the idea that a private conversation would

Unknown Speaker (01:54:48.979)

just toss out says that he got permission to talk about all.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:52.100)

Well, yes, I understand that he could do it.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:54.020)

I understand that right in this next clip.

Unknown Speaker (01:54:56.819)

I think it gets worse because Alex starts to talk about what Joe said.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:00.180)

And if you pay attention, man, he sounds a lot like Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:03.220)

It's everything you'd expect.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:04.340)

I mean, it's a bunch of crazy, drugged out billionaire lunatics that can spy on anybody

Unknown Speaker (01:55:10.979)

they want that have more control in the NSA, just playing total God against everybody.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:16.260)

And he was like, you know, I'm number one on all these platforms.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:20.020)

I'm just going to.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:22.500)

I'm just going to stay like it is, I'm not going to do the deal.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:26.899)

Get the fuck out of here.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:29.380)

And then he watched him ban all these epidemiologists and all these doctors and

Unknown Speaker (01:55:33.140)

Cedars-Sinai's video about light therapy.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:35.699)

And he's just like, this is beyond the Soviet Union.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:38.260)

This is anti-human.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:39.300)

This isn't just anti-American, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:40.739)

This is real tyranny.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:41.619)

You're right.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:42.659)

You were right, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:43.619)

I can't believe there's people like this.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:45.220)

They have billions of dollars.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:46.500)

They want to screw everybody.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:48.979)

And they want to silence people like you, Alex, so they can then lie.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:51.460)

He goes, I've gone back and looked at what you really said.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:53.939)

And it's what you said is not what they say you say.

Unknown Speaker (01:55:56.420)

So that sounds a lot like Alex, not Joe.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:00.180)

And I couldn't find the clip of this because of the house issues, like really kind of getting

Unknown Speaker (01:56:05.539)

in my way.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:06.100)

I would have found it if I had the time, probably.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:08.739)

But I specifically remember that there was a clip of Joe Rogan after Alex's last appearance

Unknown Speaker (01:56:13.859)

on the show talking about how Alex lied to him about what he said about Sandy Hook.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:19.140)

He said that he went back and looked at the things Alex said about Sandy Hook, and Alex

Unknown Speaker (01:56:23.380)

had lied to him to his face about what his coverage of Sandy Hook was.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:27.539)

The exact opposite of what Alex is presenting here about.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:30.659)

Rogan said that I went back and I looked at the things you said, and they lied about

Unknown Speaker (01:56:34.579)

what you said.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:36.100)

Rogan has said that Alex has lied about them lying about what he said.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:39.619)

There has to be, he has to have put a magazine cutout of Joe Rogan's face onto a mirror,

Unknown Speaker (01:56:46.180)

and that's what he's talking about.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:47.460)

Like that conversation happened.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:48.739)

I think it's just, I think that there's an outside chance it's completely made up.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:53.060)

Yeah, it has to be.

Unknown Speaker (01:56:53.939)

I think that there's a chance that they did have a pleasant phone call about, hey, how's

Unknown Speaker (01:56:57.939)

it going?

Unknown Speaker (01:56:58.340)

Oh, I just signed this big deal or whatever.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:00.579)

And then Alex is making up all the rest of this.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:02.899)

This is insane.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:03.859)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:04.260)

This is disrespectful in a really gross way.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:06.340)

Unless there's a possibility that Rogan is a prank guy.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:10.819)

Maybe he's like, hey, Alex, why don't you say these things?

Unknown Speaker (01:57:14.500)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:15.619)

We'll all get press out of it or something.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:17.539)

Yeah, I suppose.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:18.100)

Or Alex is just desperately trying to get attention, and this is the way he's doing

Unknown Speaker (01:57:22.020)

it, by piggybacking onto Rogan's stuff, which is his normal standard behavior.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:26.340)

Yeah, and he's a psychopath, so he wouldn't really, you know, it's kind of like I don't

Unknown Speaker (01:57:30.819)

think he would try and destroy the relationship too much just in case.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:34.500)

But at the same time, he would totally sell a Rogan out if he was desperate enough.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:39.220)

Like completely.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:40.180)

I could see it.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:40.819)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:42.180)

Just that.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:42.899)

Maybe they'll get me back on Spotify.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:44.500)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:45.460)

Yeah, get the fuck out of here.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:47.300)

So, I mean, what it really gets down to is Owen Troyer takes over on the 21st, and so

Unknown Speaker (01:57:52.739)

I turned it off.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:53.619)

But Alex ends his little segment, about how you'd expect.

Unknown Speaker (01:57:58.420)

Now, I don't have a $100 million deal with Spotify, and that's fine.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:02.819)

I have you, the people, getting great products, but when we bring in $20 million, half that's

Unknown Speaker (01:58:07.060)

the cost of product.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:08.260)

So you've done an incredible job buying the product.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:10.260)

You've done an incredible job funding this operation.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:12.100)

It's not a sales gimmick that I said the sale would end last Sunday, and then I extended

Unknown Speaker (01:58:15.939)

it, and I've been so busy, I haven't cut new ads.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:18.260)

So, yeah, I mean, that's really the bottom line.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:21.140)

Preemptive, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:22.340)

Hey, he's got a $100 million deal.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:24.100)

I don't.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:24.659)

I need you.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:25.619)

So insecurity has to justify something that nobody asked about.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:30.819)

Nobody cared.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:31.939)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:32.500)

Nobody was like, oh, those sales have gone on longer than you said.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:36.500)

Maybe I don't trust Alex Jones.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:38.739)

Hey, look, it's not a sales thing.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:39.939)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:40.979)

Nobody cares.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:41.779)

Yeah, I mean, I think a lot of this is just trying to attach himself to the story because

Unknown Speaker (01:58:46.899)

he knows that it's getting a lot of press, and he does know Joe Rogan, so it does seem

Unknown Speaker (01:58:50.340)

like there's more heightened credibility to it.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:53.060)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (01:58:53.539)

I think it's a load of bullshit, and Alex is, yeah, he's just probably desperately trying

Unknown Speaker (01:58:58.020)

to get attention that he can funnel into his revenue streams.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:00.500)

Yeah, stop it.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:02.739)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:03.140)

This is one of the saddest stretches of incompetence and bald stupidity I can think of.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:10.739)

Well, that's probably just because we listened to a bit of Harrison Smith.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:12.979)

Yeah, that could be.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:13.779)

Who is just a disaster.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:15.300)

He's boring.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:16.020)

He's a nerd.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:16.899)

He's not good at his job.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:18.420)

Dan brought up some great points.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:19.699)

Thank you, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:20.180)

God damn it, Dan.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:21.220)

You are a terrorist now.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:23.539)

You are a literal terrorist.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:25.220)

You are attacking me with these clips.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:27.220)

Look, if he has Dan Lyman on and he keeps saying Dan blank, I'm going to have to get

Unknown Speaker (01:59:32.659)

those clips.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:33.300)

I know.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:33.779)

I understand.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:34.659)

I understand.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:35.300)

This is going to be a revolution in our podcast.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:37.779)

I'm really scared.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:38.739)

Shit.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:39.380)

I'm really scared that I'm going to be fired and replaced with series of clips of Alex

Unknown Speaker (01:59:44.180)

agreeing with you.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:44.819)

You know what I just realized also?

Unknown Speaker (01:59:45.939)

What's that?

Unknown Speaker (01:59:46.260)

I forgot to do a report on the Year of the Seltzer.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:48.739)

I need to get to that.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:50.100)

So I got to check in here on the Year of the Seltzer.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:58.260)

I can't.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:59.300)

I can't.

Unknown Speaker (01:59:59.779)

I'm struggling here.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:01.220)

I'm struggling.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:02.420)

This has been a barrage.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:04.180)

This has been a barrage of sound drops.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:07.539)

Oh, boy.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:08.260)

So we are currently sitting at 78 seltzers down.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:11.460)

All right.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:11.939)

Pretty good.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:13.220)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:13.779)

We're well ahead.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:15.060)

Killing it.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:15.539)

You're killing it.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:16.100)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:16.340)

But it's going to slow down.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:17.460)

There will eventually be a time when so I'm looking over this and I don't remember exactly

Unknown Speaker (02:00:23.300)

where we left off, but I'm going to say, look, dude, this is going to be real standard and

Unknown Speaker (02:00:28.340)

basic, but I decided to take a little dip into the Perrier world.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:33.140)

Of course.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:33.859)

And I got to say quality products.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:35.859)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:36.260)

There's a reason that they're one of the most ubiquitous seltzer mineral water fellas, because

Unknown Speaker (02:00:42.100)

they are like, it's crisp.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:43.380)

It's exactly what you want from a seltzer water, and the flavors are pretty good.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:49.140)

They're not obtrusive.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:50.180)

I put the lime variety at a 70 and the lemon at a 73.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:55.300)

It's just consistent.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:56.340)

It's real good.

Unknown Speaker (02:00:57.859)

But I will say the grapefruit wasn't good.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:00.979)

Not so good.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:01.619)

No.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:01.939)

What's wrong with the grapefruit?

Unknown Speaker (02:01:03.060)

I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:03.779)

It tastes musky.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:05.140)

I think I just don't like grapefruit.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:07.300)

You're not a grapefruit guy.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:08.500)

I think I might not be into it.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:10.979)

Passion fruit.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:12.020)

Love it.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:12.500)

You're a secret passion fruit lover.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:14.659)

Oh, I think I forgot to bring this up.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:16.420)

Two things real quick.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:17.300)

First, I had the Lacroix Pamplemousse.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:20.739)

Isn't that grapefruit too?

Unknown Speaker (02:01:21.539)

That is grapefruit.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:22.579)

38 out of 100.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:23.699)

Ooh, that's real bad.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:24.979)

You hate grapefruit.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:26.260)

I think I must.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:26.819)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:27.460)

And then the other one, I hate to say this.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:28.979)

A listener wrote in, Doug, and recommended Fizz and Company.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:33.140)

Oh, you got to name him?

Unknown Speaker (02:01:34.500)

You got to shame him and name him.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:36.340)

I'm giving him a shout out.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:37.220)

Okay.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:37.699)

Good person.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:39.779)

But unfortunately,

Unknown Speaker (02:01:40.899)

so Fizz and Company, they make these sodas that are actually seltzers.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:46.659)

They're soda flavored.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:47.699)

They have cola, root beer, Dr. Pepper.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:50.659)

Got the root beer one.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:52.739)

And root beer talk?

Unknown Speaker (02:01:55.859)

18.

Unknown Speaker (02:01:58.579)

It is gross.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:00.739)

That made you...

Unknown Speaker (02:02:01.779)

What?

Unknown Speaker (02:02:02.020)

You had to spit it out?

Unknown Speaker (02:02:04.180)

I wanted to.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:04.979)

Oh, man.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:05.619)

Definitely poured out the can.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:06.899)

Oh, wow.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:07.380)

It was so bad.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:08.659)

That's crazy.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:09.619)

I'm sorry.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:10.340)

Look, maybe the Dr. Pepper and cola ones will be better once I find them.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:15.140)

But man, root beer, trash.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:17.060)

I would be unacceptable.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:18.180)

Oh, Doug, I would be real sad if I made a recommendation that got that low a score.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:23.859)

It does not affect how I feel about Doug.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:27.140)

Doug, I don't think Dan likes you anymore.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:29.939)

Look, people have different tastes.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:31.300)

I get cilantro.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:33.300)

You're just making faces now.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:40.500)

You're just mugging to a non-existent podcast camera.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:43.460)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:43.939)

Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:44.500)

That's the Spotify feed.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:45.859)

There you go.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:47.939)

We get zero million dollars out of it.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:50.020)

Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:50.579)

So we'll be back, Jordan.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:51.699)

But until next time, we have a website.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:53.699)

We do have a website.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:54.500)

It's knowledgefight.com.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:55.539)

Right.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:55.699)

We're also on Twitter.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:56.659)

We are on Twitter.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:57.220)

It's at knowledgefight.com.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:58.180)

Now go to bed, Jordan.

Unknown Speaker (02:02:58.899)

Also on Facebook.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:02.819)

And if you would like, please donate to a local charity in your area.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:06.020)

That would be appreciated.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:07.300)

Yes, we'll be back.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:08.340)

But until then, I'm Neo.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:09.779)

I'm Leo.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:10.420)

I'm DZX Clark.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:11.539)

I'm Harrison Smith's reading skills.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:13.939)

Andy in Kansas.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:14.899)

You're on the air.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:15.380)

Thanks for holding.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:17.939)

Hello, Alex.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:18.659)

I'm a first time caller.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:19.539)

I'm a huge fan.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:20.340)

I love your work.

Unknown Speaker (02:03:21.220)

I love you.
