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, knowledge
Unknown Speaker (00:00:24.199)
fight, Dan and George, knowledge fight, need money, Andy and Kansas, Andy and, Andy, stop
Unknown Speaker (00:00:42.719)
it, Andy and, Andy and Kansas, it's time to pray, Andy and Kansas, you're on the air,
Unknown Speaker (00:00:59.039)
thanks for holding us.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:00.039)
Hello Alex, I'm a first time caller, I'm a huge fan, I love your work, knowledge fight,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:01.039)
knowledgefight.com, I love you.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:02.039)
Hey everybody, welcome back to knowledge fight, I'm Dan, I'm Jordan, we're a couple dudes,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:03.039)
I like to sit around and worship at the altar of Selene and talk a little bit about Alex
Unknown Speaker (00:01:06.040)
Jones.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:07.040)
Oh indeed we are, Dan, Jordan, Dan, Jordan, quick question for you, what's your bright
Unknown Speaker (00:01:11.319)
spot today buddy?
Unknown Speaker (00:01:12.319)
My bright spot today, Jordan, is I have heard the voice of the people.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:15.719)
You've heard the voice of the people, all the people?
Unknown Speaker (00:01:17.959)
I have listened to feedback and criticism, and I have reformatted my coverage of Alex's
Unknown Speaker (00:01:26.120)
book The Great Reset into a PDF that is downloadable, because I was a little defensive about it
Unknown Speaker (00:01:32.560)
in the immediate aftermath, because it was a huge undertaking, but putting it on subsequent
Unknown Speaker (00:01:40.359)
pages on a website was a very bad idea for how to lay things out.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:44.959)
It can be.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:45.959)
And so I have corrected that and it is now in a PDF, if you go to alexjonesisanidiot.com,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:51.480)
it is all there, and you can download it, I believe you can load it into an e-reader,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:55.799)
even, I don't know, whatever you can do with PDFs.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:58.159)
Oh you can do it all.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:59.159)
So yeah, that's there, and it's a relief because that was hanging over my head a little bit
Unknown Speaker (00:02:03.680)
of like, I want the information to be accessible to people, and this is obviously not the way
Unknown Speaker (00:02:09.539)
to have done it, but yeah, I think in the future I've figured out how to do it, which
Unknown Speaker (00:02:18.939)
is to say I've figured out how to make a PDF, which is great, at almost 40.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:25.280)
I think it's interesting that you've been putting Excel on your resume for all these
Unknown Speaker (00:02:29.159)
years.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:30.159)
I think I probably have.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:31.159)
I think so too.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:32.159)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:33.159)
So many things I put on my resume unchallenged, it never came up.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:38.639)
Until you need them.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:40.120)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:41.120)
Man, that would really be useful right now, that thing I said I could do all these years.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:44.919)
Turns out I can't.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:45.919)
Turns out, yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:46.919)
So what's your Brightspot?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:47.919)
My Brightspot is another year wrapped up a Games Done Quick marathon, it was a lot of
Unknown Speaker (00:02:55.639)
fun.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:56.639)
I had planned a joke where my Brightspot was going to be the awesome Games Done Quick because
Unknown Speaker (00:03:00.120)
I knew it was going to be yours and I was going to steal it from you.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:02.479)
Oh, you chunked it.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:03.479)
You chunked it.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:05.919)
You had to get too excited about that thing that you created that I think is really great.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:10.520)
Well, all right.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:11.699)
So what was your high point of the games?
Unknown Speaker (00:03:14.680)
There were some great runs.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:15.680)
There was a dog, a dog did a run.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:20.080)
A dog played a game.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:21.439)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:22.439)
A guy trained his dog.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:23.439)
I don't know, it was a game about sleepwalking, it was like the dog, but anyways, the dog
Unknown Speaker (00:03:28.039)
pressed the button and then it un-pressed the button.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:30.800)
It's etc.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:31.800)
You get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:32.800)
It's not really much of a game.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:34.139)
My favorite though was somebody had hooked up a drum set, a drum kit midi style to Super
Unknown Speaker (00:03:40.979)
Mario 64.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:43.620)
So they were playing the game through the drums.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:49.039)
How do you do directions?
Unknown Speaker (00:03:50.819)
So that was the idea.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:51.819)
So there was north, south, you know, that kind of thing on all of the toms.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:55.719)
So then you keep moving forward.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:57.840)
You have to roll to keep moving forward and then he had a thing he could hit so it contained
Unknown Speaker (00:04:02.900)
his momentum.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:03.900)
Then he had a jump button, he had a whole thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:06.180)
In order to spin Bowser around he had to do full spin rolls.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:09.919)
It was fantastic.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:10.919)
It was great.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:11.919)
Did he beat the game?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:12.919)
Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:13.919)
He beat the game.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:14.919)
That would be exhausting.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:15.919)
It was, it took like a half hour.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:17.160)
It was ridiculous.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:18.160)
That's still, like that's the best cardio.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:20.160)
Yeah, it was amazing.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:21.720)
I watched somebody, I think I had a, just it was recommended on YouTube, I'm not entirely
Unknown Speaker (00:04:26.740)
sure why, but I had a marble game.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:30.980)
Marble Madness.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:31.980)
Marble Madness.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:32.980)
Yeah, I have vague memory of that from like old Nintendo or maybe, maybe not, maybe it's
Unknown Speaker (00:04:38.579)
just very similar to games that I played on Nintendo, but I was like, I'll check this
Unknown Speaker (00:04:43.220)
out.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:44.220)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:45.220)
It was very boring.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:46.220)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:47.220)
It's just people, marble physics.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:48.220)
It does happen.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:49.220)
That can, that can backfire.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:50.939)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:51.939)
But, hey, they're raising money for charities, who gives a shit?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:53.819)
Yeah, they raised, they raised 2.5 plus million dollars this year.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:57.779)
Not too bad.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:58.779)
Not too bad.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:59.779)
And what's cool about that, far greater than any of that, cause you know, cancer's a disease
Unknown Speaker (00:05:04.459)
and we all die no matter what.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:06.019)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:07.019)
But what we don't have to deal with is people who deny human rights and one of the constant
Unknown Speaker (00:05:11.660)
refrains to the point that you cannot escape it is that trans rights are human rights.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:16.620)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:17.620)
And they always make sure to fucking go hard on that, so.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:20.139)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:21.139)
Super cool.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:22.139)
That's good.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:23.139)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:24.139)
Good for them.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:25.139)
Good folk.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:26.139)
So Jordan, today we have an episode to go over.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:27.139)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:28.139)
And I decided, ah, fuck this noise.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:29.139)
Good call.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:30.139)
I'm going to the past.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:31.139)
I genuinely don't, I don't need to know the next part of that series.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:33.819)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:34.819)
Tired of the present.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:35.819)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:36.819)
Going to the past.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:37.819)
Good.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:38.819)
So today we're going to be talking about April 2nd through 5th.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:39.819)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:40.819)
2004.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:41.819)
And that's a Friday and a Monday.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:42.819)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:43.819)
So it's not really that much.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:44.819)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:45.819)
A huge stretch of a time.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:46.819)
But, ah, man, man oh man.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:47.819)
What fun.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:48.819)
I mean, comparatively.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:49.819)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:50.819)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:51.819)
It's good.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:52.819)
It's good stuff.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:53.819)
Um, yeah, there's actually some interesting things that go down in this episode and I'm
Unknown Speaker (00:05:54.819)
thrilled to discuss them, but until we get to that, ooh shit, let's say hello to some
Unknown Speaker (00:06:00.660)
new wonks, Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:01.660)
That's a great idea.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:02.660)
Because my mouth ain't working.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:03.660)
That's a great idea.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:04.660)
So first, my name is Nick and I come from sports.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:06.060)
Thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:07.060)
You're an Iowa Policy Wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:08.060)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:09.060)
I come from sports!
Unknown Speaker (00:06:10.060)
I do think that might be your greatest contribution to the public space.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:15.060)
I love that one.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:16.060)
I come from sports.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:17.060)
Next, if you trust me, my name to read was Balls, Balls, Balls.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:20.839)
Thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:21.839)
You're an Iowa Policy Wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:22.839)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:23.839)
You were supposed to do that in a voice.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:26.819)
What?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:27.819)
What?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:28.819)
Is it a reference?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:29.819)
Who did?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:30.819)
I forgot to...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:31.819)
You didn't put a voice in there.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:32.819)
A voice note.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:33.819)
I think you were supposed to do it in like a circus announcer's voice.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:34.819)
I guess I just made you say Balls, Balls, Balls for no reason.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:37.579)
And a weird fucking silence after the name.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:39.699)
Weird energy thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:40.699)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:41.699)
Anyways, it's all good.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:42.699)
It's all good.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:43.699)
So next, Alex Jones graduated from my mother-in-law's College of Revisionist History.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:47.699)
Thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:48.699)

Unknown Speaker (00:06:49.699)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:50.699)
Thank you very much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:51.699)
Thank you.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:52.699)
I'm Alex Jones, Bishop Archie of the Archdiocese of Arches.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:55.060)
Thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:56.060)

Unknown Speaker (00:06:57.060)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:58.060)
Thank you very much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:59.060)
You can't catch me.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:00.060)
You can't fuck me up with those arches.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:01.060)
I think I'm gonna tongue twist.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:03.500)
And Kristen Ursine Enthusiast.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:06.459)
Thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:07.459)
You're an Iowa Policy Wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:08.459)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:09.459)
Thank you very much.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:10.459)
You almost got me.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:11.459)
Yeah, I know you can.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:12.459)
You got too cocky.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:13.459)
Ursine Enthusiast.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:14.459)
And we got a second crowd in the mix, Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:15.939)
So thank you so much to Please Dance, sing as much of One Night in Bangkok you can remember
Unknown Speaker (00:07:20.379)
because it's a banger and I love chess.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:22.680)
Thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:23.680)
You are now a technocrat.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:25.259)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:26.259)
Four stars.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:27.259)
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:29.379)
Someone, someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:31.860)
Daddy shark.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:32.860)
Bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:34.259)
Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:38.620)
He's a loser little, little titty baby.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:41.699)
I don't want to hate black people.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:43.339)
I renounce Jesus Christ.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:45.060)
I think I've sung about enough of it, as much of it as I remember.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:48.600)
I just, I think, I think I've sung all the lyrics that I remember.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:53.459)
I think you have, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:54.459)
I think I've mentioned so.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:55.459)
I've got to find another Murray Head song to just like pretend to like or something.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:02.180)
You know?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:03.180)
I mean, yeah, I think Got To is strong.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:06.100)
Can.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:07.100)
Could.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:08.100)
It's possible.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:09.500)
When You Have Time.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:10.500)
I could pretend.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:11.500)
Maybe.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:12.500)
I feel like Got To suggests a level of urgency that maybe it doesn't require.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:16.100)
Do you think it's a good character choice for me to just insist that I really love that
Unknown Speaker (00:08:20.620)
song The King of Wishful Thinking?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:22.500)
Do I think it's a good character choice?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:24.819)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:25.819)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:26.819)
Let me give you two choices.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:27.819)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:28.819)
King of Wishful Thinking.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:29.819)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:30.819)
Or Mandolin Rain.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:31.819)
Listen to the mandolin rain.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:34.899)
Or I'll get over you, I know I will.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:39.659)
I'm going to have to go with Mandolin Rain.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:41.139)
You're wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:42.139)
So Jordan, like I said, today we have an episode where in the past there will be some
Unknown Speaker (00:08:45.960)
interesting things to talk about, some stupid things, but first here is an out of context
Unknown Speaker (00:08:49.379)
draw.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:50.379)
I would have heard that our son has another son.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:53.919)
He would have.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:54.919)
Yeah, that's probably true.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:56.460)
There's a part we're not going to listen to at all where Alex gets really mad at a guy
Unknown Speaker (00:09:01.059)
for not giving specifics about how there's another son that's going to crash into the
Unknown Speaker (00:09:04.259)
earth.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:05.259)
Oh!
Unknown Speaker (00:09:06.259)
I was in my head being like, alright, secret families.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:10.639)
Why is there a conspiracy about Rex having his own secret family?
Unknown Speaker (00:09:14.820)
Wow, Rex would have been a young'un at this point.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:17.179)
Too young, too young.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:18.179)
Gotcha.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:19.179)
This is a solar system issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:21.460)
This is a solar system issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:23.580)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:24.580)
Gotcha.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:25.580)
So we start off here and we dive in, see what Alex is concerned about on April 2, 2004.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:31.539)
Two years ago I told you that I saw Governor Ridge, even before Homeland Security got funding
Unknown Speaker (00:09:36.580)
in late 2002, on C-SPAN with a whole bunch of corporate chieftains, two hour press conference
Unknown Speaker (00:09:45.080)
or meeting and I taped it, got it in the big stacks here, someday I hope to put a clip
Unknown Speaker (00:09:50.700)
of it in a video, and Governor Ridge said to have a job, your national ID card through
Unknown Speaker (00:09:57.740)
the driver's license will have your four levels of security clearance.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:01.659)
It'll have to be federal approved to have a job anywhere.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:06.059)
And with a new national sales tax, that will bring federal enforcement into every business
Unknown Speaker (00:10:10.259)
as the overseers.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:11.500)
Well, the Washington Times reported on this five days ago and I just learned of it and
Unknown Speaker (00:10:18.639)
I have the article.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:21.259)
So you can tune in here and hear it two years before or you can just read the mainstream
Unknown Speaker (00:10:25.419)
media and find out later.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:26.940)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:27.940)
It says you're on the list, no job for you.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:32.340)
That's the headline.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:33.740)
And if you end up getting on the list, how do you do that?
Unknown Speaker (00:10:38.539)
Well, bad credit, you go from a green to a yellow and you have to go work off the debts
Unknown Speaker (00:10:45.480)
to be able to get a job.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:46.899)
And the government's going to have the new national civilian draft domestically for them
Unknown Speaker (00:10:52.860)
and environmental land grabbing programs, gun grabbing, Stasi, title tail squads.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:58.620)
It's all been announced.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:59.620)
It's all been announced.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:00.620)
It's all been announced.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:01.620)
It's all happening.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:04.899)
I mean...
Unknown Speaker (00:11:05.899)
None of that is happening.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:08.580)
How many colors do you need for a system like this?
Unknown Speaker (00:11:11.620)
You know, you go from green to yellow.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:13.019)
He's imagining the terrorism watch color coded index.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:17.779)
But I mean, in a practical sense, how many, if we're setting up this system, how many
Unknown Speaker (00:11:22.559)
colors would we need on the color wheel of how much debt you have?
Unknown Speaker (00:11:27.220)
Right?
Unknown Speaker (00:11:28.220)
I think it's any or it would be just black and white.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:31.059)
Any debt or none?
Unknown Speaker (00:11:33.259)
Any or none.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:34.259)
That's the difference.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:35.259)
You're in the red or the black.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:36.259)
You got debt, can't get a job.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:38.539)
The Washington Times article that Alex is talking about is actually about the...
Unknown Speaker (00:11:42.299)
If you have people who hire things for positions in infrastructure critical roles, there's
Unknown Speaker (00:11:48.860)
a database that they can check people who apply for those jobs on to see if they have
Unknown Speaker (00:11:52.860)
any flags that come up.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:54.179)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:55.179)
So that's what they're talking about.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:56.179)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:57.179)
It's kind of a misrepresentation.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:58.179)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:59.179)
There are a lot of very important things that happen on this stretch of episodes.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:03.500)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:04.500)
And we're about to be introduced to the first one here.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:06.980)
This is out of WFF Huntsville, DeCator Shoals, covers three large towns in Alabama.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:15.659)
And a veteran, no criminal record, was tired of the corruption, put a nice little small
Unknown Speaker (00:12:22.580)
sign in his yard, didn't violate any zoning laws out in the country.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:27.340)
And here, there's a picture of the sign on infoawards.com.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:30.059)
We have a link to WFF and it's got photos and documents there.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:34.100)
Our court system is a joke.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:35.700)
That's all it said.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:36.700)
And I have the judge's ruling here.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:38.500)
He said, this is a direct disrespect and direct contempt of all the courts.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:41.899)
Field divorce somewhere in this one.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:43.580)
And then he ordered the county to arrest him immediately.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:49.019)
And he was arrested and put in shackles in a four by six cell and left shackled in the
Unknown Speaker (00:12:57.460)
form of torture.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:58.620)
And the gentleman who we're going to get on the show said, you know what, I'm going to
Unknown Speaker (00:13:01.779)
stay here forever.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:02.779)
And there was such a public outcry, if it had been California knew that, it probably
Unknown Speaker (00:13:08.779)
wouldn't have been, that the court apologized and released him.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:12.460)
But see, this is what's scary.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:14.779)
They and their power trip and their compulsive, aggressive, garbage, just that was their instinct.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:22.139)
Arrest that man.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:23.139)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:24.139)
Folks, that's England pre-Magna Carta.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:26.500)
That's Nazi Germany.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:27.500)
That's Russia.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:28.500)
So Alex is playing a little fast and loose with some details on this story.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:31.220)
Like he's not naming the person who put up the sign, which makes it more difficult if
Unknown Speaker (00:13:34.700)
you're just listening to this to check up on it.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:36.539)
What's the story here?
Unknown Speaker (00:13:37.539)
I got bad vibes.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:38.539)
So here's what's going on.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:40.639)
Your instincts are pretty sharp.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:42.019)
I just, you know, sometimes you just hear divorce and something.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:46.980)
So this has to do with a fellow named Phillip Dean who had just gone through a particularly
Unknown Speaker (00:13:51.580)
nasty divorce in which his ex wife got custody of their kids.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:56.860)
So it is true that he posted a sign on his yard that said, quote, our court system is
Unknown Speaker (00:14:00.860)
a joke.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:01.860)
But what Alex fails to mention is that there were three other signs.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:04.620)
Right, right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:06.320)
One said, quote, Judge Harrelson said my minor children, 13 and 15, need to be with her mother
Unknown Speaker (00:14:10.919)
even though she let them smoke pot, take drugs, and run wild.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:14.940)
It's a lot for a sign.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:15.940)
All right, so this is a little bit like three billboards outside Epic, but you know, a little
Unknown Speaker (00:14:20.419)
bit different.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:21.419)
You know I don't know movies.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:22.419)
OK, fair enough.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:23.419)
The third said, quote, this tells my kids it's OK to do drugs.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:26.820)
And the last, quote, we wonder why so many kids are on drugs.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:30.419)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:31.419)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:32.419)
So the judge found out about these signs and considered them contempt of court.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:35.779)
And he had a sheriff bring Phillip in where he was held for about 26 hours before appearing
Unknown Speaker (00:14:40.220)
for the judge.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:41.220)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:42.220)
And being released.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:43.220)
And he got an apology for the whole mess.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:44.220)
I agree.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:45.220)
The judge is a whiny little baby.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:46.220)
You bet.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:47.220)
And he can cram it up his butt.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:48.220)
You bet.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:49.220)
Yeah, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:50.220)
You're a whiny little baby and you can cram it up your butt.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:51.220)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:52.220)
Yeah, this one is a whole big mess because on some very basic aspects, I agree with the
Unknown Speaker (00:14:55.340)
underlying point that Alex is trying to make, which is that it's wrong that this guy got
Unknown Speaker (00:14:58.740)
arrested for putting up a yard sign.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:00.340)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:01.340)
But I just can't sign up for the way that Alex plays games with the information.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:05.379)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:06.379)
If you present the image that the guy was just a concerned citizen and put one sign
Unknown Speaker (00:15:09.440)
up saying the courts are a joke, then he was arrested, it seems comically tyrannical.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:13.980)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:14.980)
However, if you present the story with all its details, like how he was embroiled in
Unknown Speaker (00:15:18.100)
a nasty divorce and custody battle, how there were four yard signs, one of which directly
Unknown Speaker (00:15:22.500)
named the judge, you get a slightly different picture.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:25.779)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:26.779)
If you consult the relevant information and read up on his later unsuccessful attempts
Unknown Speaker (00:15:30.860)
to sue the officers who arrested him, you come away with the impression that Phillip
Unknown Speaker (00:15:34.139)
Dean is kind of an asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:35.340)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:36.340)
He sucks, but that does not mean that he should have been arrested for something that's more
Unknown Speaker (00:15:39.059)
or less his free speech.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:40.539)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:41.539)
But for Alex, he needs to paint this guy as a blameless hero who's just sick of the corruption.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:45.860)
He might be just like you, random InfoWars listeners, sick of the corruption to the point
Unknown Speaker (00:15:49.860)
where he decided to take action by putting up a single innocent sign.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:53.460)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:54.460)
But the state was too threatened by this, that they had to illegally crush this dissent,
Unknown Speaker (00:15:57.220)
small as it may have been.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:59.580)
It's an oversimplification that I think hurts the audience's ability to engage with the
Unknown Speaker (00:16:03.259)
story as it actually is in the real world.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:06.379)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:07.379)
Like the characters that you stand by because of principle, but who suck.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:10.299)
Not everyone has to be a blameless hero in order for you to have their back.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:12.860)
But I suspect that that nuance is difficult for Alex's brand of narrative to cope with.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:18.340)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:19.340)
Like you have to deal with this guy kind of sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:20.340)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:21.340)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:22.340)
Why?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:23.340)
Why does he kind of suck?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:24.340)
I mean, I think it's kind of fascinating that level of like small town dickery that Alex
Unknown Speaker (00:16:30.539)
just won't really acknowledge is a serious issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:35.580)
You know, like it has to be, it has to be part of the grand conspiracy.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:39.500)
But you know what?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:40.500)
Sometimes that guy's just a dick, you know, like I think everybody is so far involved
Unknown Speaker (00:16:44.860)
in this story is an asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:46.340)
The judge is an asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:47.659)
The cop, why are you just doing what a judge tells you to do?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:50.379)
That's asshole shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:51.379)
The guy who put up signs, what are you doing putting up signs?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:53.820)
You're an asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:54.820)
Like all of this is asshole shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:56.820)
It's interesting to me too, because it is such small town as shit that like anybody
Unknown Speaker (00:17:00.580)
driving by there would be like, Ooh, Phil got a bad divorce.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:04.819)
Imagine you hearing basic details of the story could tell if you drove by and saw the sign
Unknown Speaker (00:17:09.059)
and you'd be like, Ooh, that guy is divorced.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:11.859)
Yup.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:12.859)
Yup.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:13.859)
That's rough.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:14.859)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:15.859)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:16.859)
There is that.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:17.859)
So this will become a major focus of the next couple of days of Alex's show.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:20.859)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:21.859)
Yup.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:22.859)
So there's some other stories about police corruption and this one, I thought it revealed
Unknown Speaker (00:17:27.740)
something very interesting.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:29.140)
Alex is talking about, uh, some police officers in Miami that got charged and convicted with
Unknown Speaker (00:17:35.740)
planting guns on people that they had shot in order to cover up bad shootings.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:40.900)
And so here's how Alex discusses this.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:43.539)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:44.539)
Miami cops found guilty in gun planting conspiracy, posing a chapter in the city's biggest police
Unknown Speaker (00:17:49.539)
corruption scandal in decades, the sun Sentinel, a federal grand jury, federal jury, excuse
Unknown Speaker (00:17:55.740)
me, convicted three Miami police officers Thursday of conspiring to cover up questionable
Unknown Speaker (00:18:00.019)
shootings by lying about guns, planted near suspects, bodies, Lieutenant Israel, Izzy
Unknown Speaker (00:18:06.140)
Gonzales, Sergeant Jose Pepe, that's his name, Plentario and officer Jorge nicknamed termite
Unknown Speaker (00:18:13.619)
Garcia showed no emotion as the jury returned its verdict after days of contentious deliberations
Unknown Speaker (00:18:19.220)
and a dismissed juror who disagreed with the majority said she was told by another juror,
Unknown Speaker (00:18:25.099)
go back to Cuba.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:26.099)
So they're, you know, I got, I guess, Oh, well that's my race.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:30.339)
I can't convict them.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:31.579)
Whoa.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:32.579)
Wow.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:33.579)
So these specific cops were pieces of shit and they planted evidence to justify things
Unknown Speaker (00:18:36.019)
like a 1997 shooting of an unhoused person who the officer thought had a gun, but it
Unknown Speaker (00:18:41.220)
turned out it was a Walkman.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:42.220)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:43.220)
In order to cover that up, they planted a 45 caliber handgun on the guy.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:46.259)
Makes sense.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:47.259)
He could afford it.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:48.259)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:49.259)
But what I find more important is Alex is very clear racism at the end of that clip.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:52.660)
In the course of the trial, a member of the jury who would go on to be dismissed, didn't
Unknown Speaker (00:18:56.500)
agree with the majority of the jury and was told go back to Cuba.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:00.619)
This is quite obviously an instance of the person saying that being racist towards this
Unknown Speaker (00:19:04.920)
dismissed juror.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:05.920)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:06.920)
All the defendants of the case were Hispanic and you wouldn't say go back to Cuba unless
Unknown Speaker (00:19:10.019)
you thought the person might be from Cuba.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:12.240)
So it stands to reason that the juror was probably Hispanic as well.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:14.940)
It would be insane.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:16.500)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:17.500)
So she may very well may have just not reached the point of being beyond reasonable doubt
Unknown Speaker (00:19:22.099)
based on the evidence that was presented.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:23.980)
But the racist comment that she was subjected to paints her disagreement as being based
Unknown Speaker (00:19:27.940)
in an unwillingness to say any Hispanic person is guilty of anything.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:31.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:32.460)
Maybe she's a blue lives matter lady, you know.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:34.259)
When Alex reads that someone said this to her, he doesn't think, wow, that's a shitty
Unknown Speaker (00:19:38.740)
thing to say to someone who's clearly a US citizen since they're on a jury.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:43.140)
Nope.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:44.140)
Instead he takes on the thinking of the racist harasser and reports it to his audience that
Unknown Speaker (00:19:47.980)
this is the mentality that that woman had, that she could never convict someone of her
Unknown Speaker (00:19:51.700)
own race.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:52.700)
It's about time somebody said what we're all thinking.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:55.019)
That is quite simply Alex's racism popping out.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:57.539)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:58.539)
He does a good job of not throwing around slurs, but if you pay attention to the framing
Unknown Speaker (00:20:01.579)
around stories that deal with race or you notice these little throwaway moments, it's
Unknown Speaker (00:20:06.019)
really clear.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:07.099)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:08.099)
The picture is full display.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:10.259)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:11.599)
If you're playing first person video games where you can jump into whose point of view
Unknown Speaker (00:20:15.380)
is who, Alex is always in the point of view of the person who's like, racism's right.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:19.259)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:20.259)
I think it's a good call.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:21.259)
I think you're playing this character.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:23.220)
So Alex goes to calls.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:25.420)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:26.420)
I will say that not a lot happens on the second.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:29.339)
There's the expectation that the guy who put up that sign is going to show up, but he doesn't.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:34.579)
That sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:36.779)
There's a little bit of treading water that goes on on the second, and so it leads to
Unknown Speaker (00:20:40.180)
Alex taking some not very great phone calls.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:43.099)
Heather in Colorado.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:45.339)
Welcome to the airwaves.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:46.339)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:47.339)
Hi, Alex Jones.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:48.339)
Yeah, I've been trying to get your documentaries and on DVD and I've been mailed to defective
Unknown Speaker (00:20:54.140)
ones and I've been trying to call your customer service.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:57.059)
Well, you've certainly heard everybody else that I want to go back.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:00.660)
I want to go back.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:01.660)
Found.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:02.660)
There's about 200 hundred.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:03.660)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:04.660)
There's hundreds of different types of DVD players and in some of them, they don't work
Unknown Speaker (00:21:08.339)
like I go to blockbuster video and I'd say one out of 20 DVDs like it doesn't work on
Unknown Speaker (00:21:13.220)
my Sony player.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:14.460)
You say you've been sent them repeatedly, so we are responding and sending it to you.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:19.740)
Unfortunately, I can't handle customer service here, but we will send you a VHS or will refund
Unknown Speaker (00:21:24.740)
your money if your DVD isn't working.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:27.700)
Which would you like?
Unknown Speaker (00:21:28.700)
I guess I'd just rather just take the VHS because the DVDs aren't working.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:32.700)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:33.700)
Well, you say you had a problem once and we sent you another one.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:38.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:39.460)
So what I'm going to ask you to do, this is a byproduct of not a screen call and it's
Unknown Speaker (00:21:43.019)
fine, but I just can't do it on the radio show.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:45.539)
Is it fine?
Unknown Speaker (00:21:46.539)
We can send you another one and that's good of us because that's good of you to get it,
Unknown Speaker (00:21:49.500)
but now your DVD player doesn't read a DVD nine because it's almost three hours long.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:55.859)
Some DVDs can't read it.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:57.500)
We will send you a VHS and we put you on hold and get your number and I'll handle customer
Unknown Speaker (00:22:00.859)
service during the break.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:03.059)
This is quaint.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:04.059)
Oh God.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:05.059)
I like Alex's ability to deal with that.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:09.259)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:10.259)
You know, like it's an inconvenience.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:11.259)
This is not what the show is for.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:13.140)
No, not supposed to be.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:14.140)
But he's able to not blow up on her, which is pretty nice.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:17.019)
It is.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:18.019)
It's pretty unusual for him based on who we know him to be in the present.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:21.099)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:22.099)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:23.099)
That is just a different time back then.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:24.700)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:25.700)
You know, it was a different time.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:26.700)
I do love the, first of all, the mysteriousness of DVD players, like this is the first Fast
Unknown Speaker (00:22:32.500)
and Furious movie.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:33.500)
Is there an exotic commodity?
Unknown Speaker (00:22:35.900)
It is exciting.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:36.980)
Do you want a VHS is not something I expected to hear today.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:40.819)
But then I also love the repeated instance on getting her to acknowledge that we did
Unknown Speaker (00:22:46.700)
send you another one.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:47.700)
We did.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:48.700)
We're good at this.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:49.700)
We are.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:50.700)
We're doing it.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:51.700)
Our customer service is pretty great.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:52.700)
We sent you two DVDs.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:53.700)
That cost us $4 to burn.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:55.440)
So this will be the first of two frustrating phone calls that Alex gets.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:59.099)
Oh God no.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:00.099)
But this one, this next call is actually on topic.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:02.420)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:03.420)
Barney in Maryland.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:04.420)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:05.420)
Alex, pertaining to the man arrested for or erected his sign, contempt the court may apply
Unknown Speaker (00:23:13.980)
in a courtroom, but the first amendment applies everywhere else.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:18.500)
He wasn't involved in the judges court, he just said our courts are a joke and the judge
Unknown Speaker (00:23:22.940)
thinks that he, you know, everywhere in the county is God and you can't, you've got to
Unknown Speaker (00:23:28.220)
lick his boots.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:29.220)
He ought to be impeached for violating the Supreme law of the land, the first amendment.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:33.900)
I agree.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:34.900)
Thanks, Barney.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:35.900)
So the judge in this case's actions were reviewed and he was advised to be more careful in the
Unknown Speaker (00:23:39.180)
future but faced no formal punishment.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:41.019)
Yeah, fuck that.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:42.019)
Lawsuits filed by Philip have all failed on the merits in this case.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:46.059)
Also you can tell by this conversation that these guys are having that they either don't
Unknown Speaker (00:23:49.180)
know the facts of the case or they're just lying about it.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:51.339)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:52.339)
Alex is saying that he had nothing to do with this judge's court when in fact the judge
Unknown Speaker (00:23:55.220)
had presided over his custody hearings and the judge's name was on Philip's, one of his
Unknown Speaker (00:23:59.460)
signs.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:00.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:01.460)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:02.460)
Why would Alex want to obscure that information?
Unknown Speaker (00:24:03.460)
Is it because of all that he, he doesn't know?
Unknown Speaker (00:24:05.900)
Has he not read that deeply into paragraph three of any story about this?
Unknown Speaker (00:24:10.099)
I think maybe that's the stuff you, you leave off.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:13.119)
I think it might be.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:14.119)
I think, I think because then the narrative, here's why it's not because it changes the
Unknown Speaker (00:24:18.980)
hero or the villain here.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:20.579)
It's because if you're listening from the point of view of an Alex Jones listener, circa
Unknown Speaker (00:24:25.339)
early thousands, right?
Unknown Speaker (00:24:27.180)
Then your point of view changes not from, Oh, this is government overreach to this judge
Unknown Speaker (00:24:32.160)
is a whiny loser.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:33.900)
He should have challenged that man to a fight.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:35.900)
Fisticuffs would have solved these problems.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:38.259)
You know what I'm saying?
Unknown Speaker (00:24:39.380)
Put my name on a billboard.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:40.880)
We fight.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:41.880)
The name comes off or it stays on and then we know, you know, you're in trouble when
Unknown Speaker (00:24:46.880)
a judge takes off his robe.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:48.619)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:49.619)
Judge walks up to you.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:51.339)
If you, if you can't do that, then you fucking eat it because you get to wear the robe.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:56.579)
I guess.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:57.900)
I'm not sure exactly if that's why you would obscure those details, but that could be one
Unknown Speaker (00:25:03.319)
of the reasons.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:04.319)
There's possibilities there.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:05.319)
So Alex gets another caller and if you think VHSs are quaint, let's talk to Bill in Oregon.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:10.019)
Bill, you're on the air.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:11.019)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:12.019)
Alex, first of all, I just want to say you're a damn good man and I appreciate you being
Unknown Speaker (00:25:16.259)
here.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:17.259)
Just do me a favor.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:18.259)
We have a lot of children listening and I don't even want to use the most famous.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:21.259)
I'm sorry.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:22.259)
I apologize.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:23.259)
No, it's not.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:24.259)
We have a lot of homeschoolers.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:25.259)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:26.259)
Alex scolded him.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:27.259)
What the fuck?
Unknown Speaker (00:25:28.259)
It's ridiculous.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:29.259)
Every time I hear that, I'm like, what are we doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:25:35.819)
What are we doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:25:37.579)
What are we doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:25:38.579)
Smash cut to the present day where Alex is screaming about demons pissing in your face.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:42.579)
I am getting very furious with time.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:44.900)
I don't like it.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:46.019)
It passes and things change and I don't always like the difference between the two.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:50.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:51.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:52.019)
We're going back to a time is largely a progression of growth and a progression as opposed to
Unknown Speaker (00:25:58.140)
a deterioration.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:59.140)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:00.140)
And that's why it's frustrating because we were watching a deterioration of a person.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:02.619)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:03.619)
We're going back to a time when he was more capable and I mean, look, I think it's silly
Unknown Speaker (00:26:07.339)
to scold people for saying damn on air or something like that, but at least it's in line with
Unknown Speaker (00:26:11.460)
his puritanicalness.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:12.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:13.460)
He doesn't live up to it himself.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:14.859)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:15.859)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:16.859)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:17.859)
Do as I say, not as I do, my friend.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:18.859)
Look, if you have colors that you're like presiding over, you're kind of like a judge
Unknown Speaker (00:26:21.480)
who can arrest someone for putting up a billboard.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:23.259)
Well, you can just arbitrarily scold them for saying damn on your show.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:26.380)
I mean, you could call it policing if you will.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:28.420)
It's a, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:30.299)
So Alex talks a little bit more about this Alabama billboard situation.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:35.220)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:36.220)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:37.220)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:38.220)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:39.220)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:40.220)
Your calls are coming up here in just a few minutes.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:41.220)
I wanted to recap this story because it's so outrageous.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:42.220)
We can't just graze or glaze over this as they say.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:45.940)
Wait, what?
Unknown Speaker (00:26:46.940)
The AFF, and we even found some other articles on this, you can look through them all up
Unknown Speaker (00:26:52.819)
to his ears and legal documents.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:55.299)
Phillip Dean is fed up with the judicial system.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:58.579)
That's the kind of court system we've got in Jackson County, Alabama, and I want everybody
Unknown Speaker (00:27:02.339)
to know it, Dean says.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:04.220)
So he put a sign this front lawn saying, quote, our court system is a joke.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:09.460)
Little bitty.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:10.460)
It looks like a political sign.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:11.460)
It's like-
Unknown Speaker (00:27:12.460)
Little bitty.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:13.460)
Maybe you're going a little over the top here.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:14.460)
Got a bunch of photos here.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:15.460)
A message landing him behind bars.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:17.579)
He's just not dealing with the facts of the story.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:19.940)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:20.940)
You know?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:21.940)
And it's glaring.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:22.940)
It's so much funnier.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:25.859)
Why not?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:26.859)
Ugh.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:27.859)
Well, because if you deal with the reality of the story that is somewhat funny, you don't
Unknown Speaker (00:27:32.339)
get to use it the way that Alex does about like, hey, you're next person who speaks up
Unknown Speaker (00:27:38.460)
against the globalist.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:39.460)
Be scared.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:40.460)
Give me money.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:41.460)
Buy my books.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:42.460)
You know, now I really think it is like, I don't want to go back in time and stop the
Unknown Speaker (00:27:47.220)
show.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:48.220)
I want to go back in time and make the show better.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:49.859)
You know?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:50.859)
Like if it was legit funny, if early on Alex was rewarded for being good at learning things
Unknown Speaker (00:27:57.980)
or being funny or expressing talent in any way other than the ability to just fucking
Unknown Speaker (00:28:02.660)
talk.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:03.660)
Mm-hmm.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:04.660)
Nah, it'd probably go the same way.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:06.579)
Yeah, probably.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:07.579)
So we get another caller.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:08.579)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:09.579)
And she's found a book.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:10.579)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:11.579)
It's not good.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:12.579)
This book is an arcane book full of mysteries and demons.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:15.579)
Oh no.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:16.579)
Damn it.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:17.579)
Now let's go back to the calls.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:18.579)
Go ask Alice.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:19.579)
Amy in Texas.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:20.579)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:21.579)
Hello?
Unknown Speaker (00:28:22.579)
Anne, go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:23.579)
Oh, hi.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:24.579)
Anne.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:25.579)
I am calling because I found a 1903 book from the Masons and there are four pictures in
Unknown Speaker (00:28:38.579)
it for this illustration and one of them is a skeleton wearing a fez and everyone wearing
Unknown Speaker (00:28:48.720)
a fez is stepping on its like people and there's these humans with whips and setters and there
Unknown Speaker (00:28:59.819)
are people being decapitated, one is being panged, one is being sawed into and the people
Unknown Speaker (00:29:08.940)
who are doing this are all wearing a fez.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:11.500)
Yeah, the red little fez they wear at children's events symbolizes the murder of Christians
Unknown Speaker (00:29:17.019)
by the Muslims.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:18.019)
Whoa.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:19.019)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:20.019)
That's extreme.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:21.019)
Jordan is absolutely losing it.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:22.019)
He's had to take off his glasses.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:23.019)
They're all wearing a fez.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:24.019)
All the skeletons all wearing a fez.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:30.019)
I just, oh man, oh boy.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:35.579)
Did you know the fez is a symbol of Muslims killing Christians?
Unknown Speaker (00:29:39.140)
I aspire to whatever amount of knowledge you would enter the world with on a daily basis
Unknown Speaker (00:29:47.700)
if you have to call Alice Jones and say, there are these skeletons with fezes on them, should
Unknown Speaker (00:29:53.180)
I be concerned?
Unknown Speaker (00:29:54.279)
This 1903 book that I found.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:58.940)
Skeletons with fezes on them, eh?
Unknown Speaker (00:30:01.500)
So Alex takes this information about the skeleton fez skeletons and then he transitions this
Unknown Speaker (00:30:08.900)
into talking about, remember, we covered this on a 2004 episode a little bit ago when there
Unknown Speaker (00:30:14.400)
was in Long Island, they had a Masonic Lodge initiation, the guy got shot and Alex made
Unknown Speaker (00:30:20.319)
a big deal out of that.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:21.319)
Oh, I recall.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:22.319)
He brings that back into the conversation thanks to these fez wearing skeletons.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:26.140)
Boy, I mean, I despise the impetus, but I'm glad to see it come back.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:31.299)
He has a Rolodex.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:32.819)
He's able to pull things out of Rolodex decently well at this point.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:36.819)
Remember three weeks ago in Long Island, they blew the guy's head off in a Masonic ritual.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:41.259)
That's a lot like a skeleton with a fez.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:43.259)
And they found, it was New York Daily News, they found coffins.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:45.180)
They're all wearing fezes.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:46.180)
Black altars.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:47.180)
Black altars and fezes.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:48.180)
And they moved the guy off and claimed it was an accident and they let the guy go.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:51.180)
That's fierce, these are not as threatening with fezes.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:53.500)
$2,200 bail.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:54.500)
That's how they get you.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:55.500)
And then we found a track record of them accidentally blowing people's heads off in these rituals
Unknown Speaker (00:31:00.140)
and it's always an accident when the Mason cops arrive.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:04.420)
Very serious.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:05.420)
Do they wear fezes?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:06.420)
All nations are into this.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:07.420)
It's the higher level ones and it's been taken over by the Illuminati according to George
Unknown Speaker (00:31:12.299)
Washington.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:13.299)
It wasn't always like this.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:14.299)
What?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:15.299)
George Washington went public against it.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:16.299)
Wait.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:17.299)
John Quincy Adams and others.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:18.299)
Wait.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:19.299)
John Quincy Adams is a higher level of this.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:21.299)
They get in coffins.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:22.299)
I'm not going to say the prayer on air, it's very blasphemous.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:25.299)
They ask Lucifer, who they call God, to enter him.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:27.740)
Hey, Satan.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:28.740)
Love you, bud.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:29.740)
To wage war against the cattle, the slaves, the profane.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:35.180)
The neophytes.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:36.180)
Yeah, the picture is full of dragons and demons and...
Unknown Speaker (00:31:40.500)
Are you talking with me, lady?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:43.380)
They, for hours, just continually chant, Lucifer, enter me, Lucifer, enter me.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:47.180)
What about the dragons?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:48.180)
What are we doing here, folks?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:49.180)
This is what our Christian...
Unknown Speaker (00:31:50.180)
Most of our Christian conservative leaders are part of this and this is very Christian
Unknown Speaker (00:31:53.500)
and I'm against it because I'm against it.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:55.500)
Well, anyway, I wanted to tell you about the pictures because they were very shocking.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:00.339)
They're shocking.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:01.460)
Skeletons of Fez.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:02.900)
Ah, wow.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:04.180)
Dragons without fezes.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:05.539)
That was a ride.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:07.779)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:08.779)
That was a ride.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:09.779)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:10.779)
And it's not over.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:11.779)
I had a great time, but I'm excited to see where it goes from here.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:13.859)
We have a sort of a denouement of the call.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:20.099)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:21.099)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:22.099)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:23.099)
What book is this particular that you have?
Unknown Speaker (00:32:24.099)
Oh, God.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:25.099)
It's called The History of the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:30.859)
It was written in 1903 and a letter in the front is from, they'll call themselves nobles.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:38.539)
Anyway, nobles...
Unknown Speaker (00:32:39.539)
Yeah, do me a favor.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:41.099)
Will you Xerox copy in color the cover and then the inside pages and mail that to me?
Unknown Speaker (00:32:47.140)
The cover, the published date, and those pictures because this is for folks that just join us
Unknown Speaker (00:32:52.900)
and think I make stuff up.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:54.359)
You notice I said that this is the Arabic branch, but this is white guys.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:58.299)
It's nothing to do with Arabs.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:59.700)
This is the Arabic branch of the higher rights and you notice I said that and then you just
Unknown Speaker (00:33:04.779)
said the Arabic order.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:07.500)
Yes, I'll get that to you today.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:10.339)
Yeah, please, please do.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:11.339)
Thank you.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:12.339)
And that's the slaughter of the Christians celebrating.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:14.339)
Oh, how they love it when they come to the schools to register your children with the
Unknown Speaker (00:33:19.779)
face scans and thumb scans and they smile with a little red hat and say, hi, we're your
Unknown Speaker (00:33:26.700)
friends.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:27.700)
Give us your firearms.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:30.700)
Soon we'll be in total control.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:35.579)
We are almost in total control of you.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:47.819)
That's what they're really like.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:48.819)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:49.819)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:50.819)
Hope that scares you because you should be concerned.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:52.400)
I'm not scared.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:54.900)
No amount of voices are going to make me scared of the fucking Shriners.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:59.619)
That's who he's talking about.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:00.900)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:01.900)
Furthermore, this woman called you because skeletons were wearing fezzes in a book.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:08.539)
She doesn't need help being scared.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:10.980)
She doesn't need your assistance.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:12.539)
That book has like a sort of ominous name, but it's just like history of the Shriners,
Unknown Speaker (00:34:18.380)
which explains the fezzes.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:19.699)
They all wear fezzes.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:20.699)
It was a cute impression that Alex did, but in the real world, the biggest impact they
Unknown Speaker (00:34:25.019)
have is opening children's hospitals and driving around in funny cars that are too small.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:29.940)
See you at the age of nine.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:32.900)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:33.900)
I'll see you if you'd need your tonsils out.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:36.300)
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:34:38.380)
Oh, Christ.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:39.420)
So we have one last caller from this April 2nd show, and this one's a bit confrontational.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:45.139)
My printer doesn't work.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:46.539)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:47.539)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:48.539)
It's not another customer service call.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:49.539)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:50.539)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:51.539)
It's a bit confrontational about Alex and what he does and does not do.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:53.699)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:54.699)
Andy, good to talk to you.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:55.699)
You're on the air.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:56.699)
Hello?
Unknown Speaker (00:34:57.699)
Andrew, whatever your name is.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:58.699)
It's Andrew.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:59.699)
Hey, Alex.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:00.699)
Good to talk to you, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:01.699)
Been supporting you for a couple of years now.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:04.980)
You do excellent work.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:05.980)
I do have a couple of bones to pick with you, though, and I'll help you give me a couple
Unknown Speaker (00:35:08.579)
of minutes to speak about it.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:09.900)
Basically, a bunch of my friends and I have been supporting you for a couple of years
Unknown Speaker (00:35:14.139)
now, and we drove up to San Francisco just this last weekend for the international inquiry
Unknown Speaker (00:35:18.940)
about 9-11.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:19.940)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:20.940)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:21.940)
Good.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:22.940)
And kind of feel like you dropped the ball a little bit, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:23.940)
Dropped the ball?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:24.940)
We're not showing up for the inquiry.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:25.940)
That was the general consensus we got from speaking with a lot of the people there.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:28.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:29.699)
It was a very powerful...
Unknown Speaker (00:35:30.699)
A lot of people running around trashing me, huh?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:32.340)
No, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:33.340)
Actually, a lot of people supporting you, selling your videos and books, and it was
Unknown Speaker (00:35:36.539)
really...
Unknown Speaker (00:35:37.539)
Oh, really?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:38.539)
Sell them my videos.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:39.539)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:40.539)
It was a really good event, actually.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:41.539)
It was very, very powerful.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:42.539)
I don't like where this is going.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:43.539)
I think the lawyer representing Ella Mariani, I met him at 4 o'clock in the morning at a
Unknown Speaker (00:35:50.539)
diner, actually, and he was pretty bummed that you weren't there as well.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:56.139)
That's when the conference starts.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:57.139)
Did you call Andreas von Bulow there?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:58.940)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:59.940)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:00.940)
You know what?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:01.940)
I called them and said, are you going?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:02.940)
They said they weren't going.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:03.940)
Yeah, I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:04.940)
Did you hear the shout-outs going down on there?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:05.940)
See, that's the thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:06.940)
Actually, that was one of the buns I had to take.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:07.940)
Did you fucking call Andreas von Bulow?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:08.940)
You want to know the truth?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:09.940)
I've been listening to you for a long time, and a couple of months leading up to the inquiry,
Unknown Speaker (00:36:19.940)
you were scheduled to be there, and I never once heard you on-air mention, even, that
Unknown Speaker (00:36:26.940)
I don't want to get into a big thing over this, but I'm not going to sit there and attack
Unknown Speaker (00:36:33.059)
people to put this on.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:34.059)
No, no, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:35.059)
Let me just say this.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:36.059)
Go for it.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:37.059)
Let me just say this.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:38.059)
You don't normally get invited to something by learning your names on a list.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:41.659)
Now, that's the end of the discussion.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:43.619)
You have anything else to talk about?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:44.940)
Yeah, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:45.940)
Can I hold through to the commercial break?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:49.139)
What do you want to talk about?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:50.139)
I just want to talk about peak oil and some other things.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:54.139)
Yeah, we can talk about that imaginary peak oil situation when we get back.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:58.139)
Oof.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:59.139)
Oof, oof, oof.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:00.139)
Not so pleasant.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:01.139)
Oh, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:02.139)
So, there was a... They did this a couple of times with COVID, too, and you see this
Unknown Speaker (00:37:07.300)
happen periodically as the conspiracy theorists get together and have a mock trial.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:11.139)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:12.139)
You know, they did one with Obama, the citizens' impeachment.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:14.139)
Oh, they've got... That's what the thing was?
Unknown Speaker (00:37:16.739)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:17.739)
It was a mock trial.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:18.739)
Oh, my God.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:19.739)
It was a mock government proceeding about 9-11, and Alex was, I guess, advertised that
Unknown Speaker (00:37:26.019)
he was going to be on it or something.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:28.099)
But here's the thing I don't quite understand about that.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:30.920)
When he says you don't find out that you're booked to be on something because you find
Unknown Speaker (00:37:35.179)
out you're on a list, this implies to me one of two things.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:39.699)
It can either be that you're on the list of attendees, and that's how you find out, or
Unknown Speaker (00:37:43.380)
if you're on a government list and you got on it because of being invited to be on this
Unknown Speaker (00:37:48.940)
thing, which would imply that the people who are running it are feds.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:52.619)
I don't know which he's trying to imply, but it could be either or both.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:56.300)
I got the vision.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:57.579)
Imagine you're looking at the Lollapalooza poster, and you're like, my band's on there.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:02.980)
That's the way I got that.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:03.980)
I would never call that a list.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:05.179)
Yeah, that's fair, but that's the... I would call it the lineup or something.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:07.900)
I suppose that's why... Yeah, that's where my mind goes, is that's the only thing that
Unknown Speaker (00:38:11.739)
makes sense to me.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:12.739)
Otherwise, if it's on a list, that sounds like a crazy person.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:14.659)
Like a no-fly list or something.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:15.659)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:16.659)
That sounds like a lunatic.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:17.659)
Well, Alex is also a little nuts.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:18.659)
That is a fair point.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:20.059)
And it's a citizen's international inquiry into 9-11.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:23.380)
That's what I'm saying.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:24.380)
That's why it makes sense to me for him to find out that... That's what makes sense
Unknown Speaker (00:38:28.480)
to me, is that they're having a stupid mock trial or thing, and they're like, oh, Alex
Unknown Speaker (00:38:32.780)
is going to be there, and he's like, I just found out about this when you screamed at
Unknown Speaker (00:38:37.340)
me.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:38.340)
He agreed to do it and forgot or something.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:39.340)
That is also entirely plausible.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:40.420)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:41.420)
I don't know exactly what the deal is, but it's nice to hear somebody give Alex the business
Unknown Speaker (00:38:46.539)
in a very light way.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:47.539)
Is there a way we can make all of them just go back to making their fun mock trials?
Unknown Speaker (00:38:52.380)
No, they were doing it during COVID, and it was awful.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:55.980)
Oh, I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:56.980)
So they're still doing it.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:57.980)
Oh, God.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:58.980)
No, we need to get them to go back to being scared of skeletons wearing hats.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:03.300)
We do.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:04.300)
We do.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:05.460)
Maybe that's our problem.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:06.539)
Maybe we have not weaponized pictures of skeletons wearing pheasants.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:10.880)
We should all be carrying them around.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:12.780)
Fucking guns don't need them.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:14.659)
They're terrified of pictures of skeletons and pheasants.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:17.420)
Forget about maga, maswa.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:20.659)
Make America scared of skeletons wearing hats.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:23.340)
Make America scared of skeletons, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:25.340)
It's not perfect.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:26.340)
Then it could be a little bit of proof.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:28.739)
And I think it would have to be masaswa, because you need the O in there, too.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:32.139)
Ah, I think it's got to be two syllables or we're out.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:35.219)
So we have the weekend, and Alex has simmered, and now we're back on the 5th, on Monday.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:42.579)
Has that VHS been sent?
Unknown Speaker (00:39:44.139)
Probably.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:45.139)
We have no confirmation one way or another.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:46.139)
All right, fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:47.139)
We can confirm for you if the guy who made the billboards is going to show up on this
Unknown Speaker (00:39:50.699)
episode.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:51.699)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:52.699)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:53.699)
Very good news.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:54.699)
So that will be paid off.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:55.699)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:56.699)
But first, Alex has another guest that he's teasing.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:57.699)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:58.699)
All right, my friends.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:00.980)
Here we are live.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:01.980)
It is another week spanning out before us.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:05.860)
It's Monday, the 5th day of April, 2004.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:09.820)
I'm Alex Jones, your host.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:11.159)
The website's freshly updated.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:13.219)
OurPrisonPlanet.com and Infowars.com.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:16.900)
We have a huge show coming up today.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:19.380)
In 30 minutes, the Grammy Award-winning, I guess you'd call it Caribbean-style jazz band,
Unknown Speaker (00:40:28.139)
whatever, I mean, pretty mild stuff, is going to be joining us.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:32.780)
They're, again, Grammy Award-winning.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:34.980)
They didn't touch the police, did absolutely nothing, so they were attacked locally downtown
Unknown Speaker (00:40:40.460)
and are being charged with felony crimes.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:44.480)
What is about to happen?
Unknown Speaker (00:40:45.480)
That was all caught on video.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:46.480)
They will now charge you with resisting arrest if you don't answer their questions.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:51.099)
We even have Supreme Court rulings that don't show respect to King Herod or Caesar.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:56.699)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:57.699)
You're in trouble.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:58.699)
Interesting thing for the Supreme Court to say.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:59.699)
So that's coming up.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:00.699)
That's coming up.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:01.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:02.699)
Say who?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:03.699)
What band?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:04.699)
You don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:05.699)
What band?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:06.699)
I'll never tell.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:07.699)
Is it 311?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:08.699)
Is it 311?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:09.699)
It's gotta be 311.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:10.699)
It's not Nick Hexum.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:11.699)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:12.699)
I can't remember any of the other members.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:13.699)
Are you sure it's not 311?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:14.699)
It's not 311.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:15.699)
Do you remember Oza Motley?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:16.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:17.699)
Do you remember Oza Motley?
Unknown Speaker (00:41:18.699)
Do not remember them.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:19.699)
Sort of a Afro-Latin, there's a little funk going on.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:22.380)
They're very, they have a lot of different genre explorations.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:25.539)
Wow, apparently their genre is mild.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:29.699)
No, I would actually describe them as quite not mild.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:32.900)
They're fairly political in messaging.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:36.900)
They did a fair amount of, I mostly know them because they did some work with Charlie Tuna
Unknown Speaker (00:41:41.380)
from J5.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:42.380)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:43.380)
And so that's how I ended up becoming aware of them.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:45.659)
I think I did some stuff with some other rappers, too, that was pretty interesting, like instrumentation
Unknown Speaker (00:41:50.860)
along with rap.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:51.860)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:52.860)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:53.860)
See, I don't know, I found, I don't know a whole lot about Oza Motley, but I always had
Unknown Speaker (00:41:58.059)
a positive impression of them.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:59.380)
Yeah, alright.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:00.380)
Turns out they've been on in fours.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:01.380)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:02.380)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:03.380)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:04.380)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:05.380)
Sure, why not?
Unknown Speaker (00:42:06.380)
So have we talked about Oza Motley at all?
Unknown Speaker (00:42:07.380)
No, we have not.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:08.380)
OK, because Alex has mentioned this incident a couple times.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:11.300)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:12.300)
And I was kind of thinking, like, well, this has gotta be going somewhere, and it turns
Unknown Speaker (00:42:15.139)
out where it was going is Oza Motley being on the show.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:17.380)
I did not see that coming.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:18.539)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:19.539)
So here's what happened.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:20.539)
The situation.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:21.539)
It's a huge mess, and technically no one was really fully in the right.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:24.500)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:25.500)
So the band was in Austin for South by Southwest, and on March 18th of this year, they were
Unknown Speaker (00:42:29.420)
playing on Sixth Street.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:31.340)
Quite innocently and in good fun, a couple members of the band decided to end the show
Unknown Speaker (00:42:35.260)
at 2.30 in the morning with a conga line out into the streets, which is a violation of
Unknown Speaker (00:42:39.500)
the noise ordinances in Austin.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:41.219)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:42.219)
They were able to make a bunch of noise on the streets, but effectively, being a band
Unknown Speaker (00:42:45.380)
with instruments like a drum and leading what amounts to an impromptu parade, that's a little
Unknown Speaker (00:42:49.460)
bit beyond the line.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:50.460)
What you gonna say?
Unknown Speaker (00:42:51.460)
Cops are gonna...
Unknown Speaker (00:42:52.460)
Hey!
Unknown Speaker (00:42:53.460)
It is what it is.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:54.460)
So an officer tried to step in and tell them to calm it down, and in the process, their
Unknown Speaker (00:42:57.780)
drummer, Jiro Yamaguchi, inadvertently hit a cop with a drum.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:01.219)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:02.219)
Well, that's not gonna go well.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:03.219)
He was trying to, like, turn it around.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:05.179)
Sure, sure, sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:06.179)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:07.179)
It's very inconvenient to carry.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:08.179)
It was a fucking Three Stooges of Star...
Unknown Speaker (00:43:10.380)
Yeah, it begins.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:11.380)
So this turned into a nasty situation pretty quick, and three Ozamatli members got arrested.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:16.219)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:17.219)
Yamaguchi for assaulting an officer, and their bassist and manager for failure to obey a
Unknown Speaker (00:43:21.619)
lawful order and interfering with police duties, respectively.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:25.059)
And then cut to the cat that accidentally scratched the drummer's paw, foot, and then
Unknown Speaker (00:43:30.619)
made the whole thing smile.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:31.619)
You think the drummer has a paw?
Unknown Speaker (00:43:32.739)
I think so.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:33.739)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:34.739)
I do now, because it's a Muppet drummer.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:36.500)
So there were a ton of people recording, because this was on Sixth Street.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:40.059)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:41.059)
And I do now want to ask you how many members of the Electric Mayhem you can own.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:45.139)
I can't do anything.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:46.139)
You can't?
Unknown Speaker (00:43:47.139)
I don't think so.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:48.139)
Lou Zealand.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:49.139)
Dr. Teeth.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:50.139)
I can't do it.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:51.139)
Animal.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:52.139)
Not under pressure.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:53.139)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:54.139)
So it's on Sixth Street during South by Southwest, so there's a bunch of people with cameras
Unknown Speaker (00:43:57.139)
around.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:58.139)
So the reality of the situation came out pretty fast, particularly that the police acted inappropriately
Unknown Speaker (00:44:02.420)
and that Yamaguchi wasn't trying to hit the cop with his drum.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:06.219)
All parties reached a compromise where the band members pled no contest to lower-level
Unknown Speaker (00:44:10.099)
misdemeanors and everybody went on with their lives, saving complete embarrassment.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:15.260)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:16.260)
Everybody going like, ah, I wish none of us had done any of this.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:19.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:20.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:21.019)
So that pleading down and compromising to a no contest thing, that wouldn't happen until
Unknown Speaker (00:44:25.099)
July.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:26.099)
So this episode from April is right in that sweet spot where it looks like the members
Unknown Speaker (00:44:29.460)
could be facing felonies.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:31.099)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:32.099)
Even in April, it wasn't a really likely scenario, given the copious amount of evidence on Oza
Unknown Speaker (00:44:35.300)
Motley's side.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:36.539)
But it's really good optics for Alex to exploit, and it's a fairly famous band who will agree
Unknown Speaker (00:44:40.579)
to come on his show.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:41.579)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:42.579)
And so that's big.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:43.579)
I think, yeah, no, it's a good decision all around on everybody's part, because they should
Unknown Speaker (00:44:47.300)
be putting public pressure onto the fucking cops, for sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:50.659)
And I think it was in 2000, I think that year is correct, I know it's before this, they
Unknown Speaker (00:44:55.500)
had played at the DNC.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:57.460)
So they had a profile, they're fairly obscure in maybe some of the mainstreamer circles,
Unknown Speaker (00:45:05.619)
but they're not a small band.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:07.900)
And so the idea of them being on Infowars is pretty silly, but this incident, and especially
Unknown Speaker (00:45:13.619)
it happening in Austin, really is just in that sweet spot.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:17.980)
So we're not actually going to listen to much of their interview when it does happen, because
Unknown Speaker (00:45:20.980)
it's kind of not that interesting.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:24.239)
Just the fact that it happened is more interesting.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:25.980)
The story happened, but there's really not much to say other than, again, I wish nobody
Unknown Speaker (00:45:31.539)
had done any of that.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:32.539)
It's almost like them saying, well, we've performed in Austin before and done a conga
Unknown Speaker (00:45:36.619)
line before.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:37.619)
It's like, yeah, you had every reason to think it would be okay, and then we shouldn't be
Unknown Speaker (00:45:42.619)
getting facing felonies, and then, yeah, you shouldn't be, and then you end up not eventually.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:46.340)
So it's kind of like, meh.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:48.500)
No, it should be, I mean, it's like, literally, here's the interview, a reasonable person
Unknown Speaker (00:45:52.900)
goes, hey, everybody, we're not doing anything any further, just stop.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:57.179)
And then we move forward.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:58.179)
And we're not going to listen to much of that interview, because there are very, very
Unknown Speaker (00:46:02.500)
serious issues.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:03.500)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:04.500)
Mike Dowd for this.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:05.500)
Oh, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:06.500)
And remember the story Friday, out of Alabama, in their local newspapers and television stations
Unknown Speaker (00:46:11.860)
reporting that a man put a sign up in his yard saying that our court system is a joke,
Unknown Speaker (00:46:17.780)
and proving that point, the local judge had him arrested and said, this respected government
Unknown Speaker (00:46:23.340)
is illegal.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:24.340)
Came out and said, you're not allowed to criticize us, this is what they think.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:29.340)
Sounds unbelievable, but it's actually happening.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:32.739)
And then we got a call Friday from a listener claiming that in Oregon, he saw a local news
Unknown Speaker (00:46:38.420)
story, and I had seen a blurb about it, that a man saved a homeless chicken that lived
Unknown Speaker (00:46:46.619)
on the street in front of a grocery store, and so he got a vicious SWAT team raid and
Unknown Speaker (00:46:52.139)
was beat up and is now being charged himself with very serious crimes.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:56.900)
Again, this is not April Fools.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:59.260)
It's April 5th, ladies and gentlemen.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:01.099)
We didn't do April Fools on April 1st.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:03.539)
This is real news.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:05.539)
This is really happening.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:07.639)
This is the insanity of government.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:11.460)
So this didn't really happen.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:12.639)
Can a man not take in a homeless chicken?
Unknown Speaker (00:47:16.099)
Can a man not do that in America?
Unknown Speaker (00:47:18.500)
So this is, okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:20.420)
Details are a little bit off here.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:21.699)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:22.699)
So this is about a guy named Nicholas Gombos.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:24.699)
He went to a local grocery store called Ray's Food Place and noticed that they had a chicken
Unknown Speaker (00:47:28.940)
in a coop.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:29.940)
He decided that the chicken was sad and being mistreated and that he should take that chicken
Unknown Speaker (00:47:33.619)
home.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:34.619)
However, that chicken was a beloved mascot of Ray's Food Place named Speckles.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:39.619)
It was named Speckles.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:42.340)
It was.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:43.340)
Oh, the man stole Speckles.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:44.659)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:45.659)
He probably wasn't a malicious person in this act, maybe just delusional, because after
Unknown Speaker (00:47:49.099)
he stole Speckles, he bought a hen and a rooster so that none of the birds would be lonely.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:53.420)
At some point, it became known that he was the one who had taken the chicken, so the
Unknown Speaker (00:47:57.300)
police contacted him and asked him to give Speckles back, which he refused to do.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:01.619)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:02.619)
Things turned a little bit ugly when the police came to his house and wanted to retrieve this
Unknown Speaker (00:48:06.099)
stolen chicken and he threatened them, which led to him going to jail for theft as well
Unknown Speaker (00:48:10.260)
as threatening officers.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:12.019)
He didn't get SWAT teamed and the police didn't beat him up.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:14.340)
That's all just exaggerations Alex is adding to the story to excite the listeners.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:18.340)
There's a really dark kind of end to this story.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:20.820)
Of course there is.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:22.099)
So in May, after Speckles was returned to Ray's, someone showed up and killed him in
Unknown Speaker (00:48:27.059)
the night, leaving-
Unknown Speaker (00:48:28.059)
Speckles?
Unknown Speaker (00:48:29.059)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:30.059)
Why?
Unknown Speaker (00:48:31.059)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:32.059)
The guy killed Speckles because if he can't have Speckles, no one can?
Unknown Speaker (00:48:34.820)
No, I understand why that's a fun story for you to connect dots, but it wasn't him.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:39.380)
This person killed the chicken in the night, left him in the sidewalk to be discovered
Unknown Speaker (00:48:43.219)
in the morning.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:44.219)
Eventually, an 18-year-old from a neighboring town admitted to doing it, thinking that the
Unknown Speaker (00:48:47.500)
chicken was injured and needed to be put out of its misery, or more likely, I mean, if
Unknown Speaker (00:48:51.659)
I just had to suspect, he was a fucked up kid.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:53.539)
I mean, what is going on with the people around this fucking grocery store?
Unknown Speaker (00:48:59.500)
This is something in the water issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:02.619)
Why is this man trying to steal a chicken that's outside of a grocery store?
Unknown Speaker (00:49:08.139)
I don't care how you feel about this chicken.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:11.619)
There's a lot of Speckles drama.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:13.619)
Man, that is-
Unknown Speaker (00:49:15.219)
The stakes on these episodes though.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:17.940)
He just-
Unknown Speaker (00:49:18.940)
Guy with, divorced guy with a billboard, guy who's stealing a chicken.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:22.980)
I want to go back, Dan.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:24.340)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:25.340)
I want to go back.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:26.340)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:27.340)
Ugh.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:28.340)
So, anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:29.340)
So this guy decided-
Unknown Speaker (00:49:30.340)
And now the guy who steals chickens is going to be the president, that's what it's going
Unknown Speaker (00:49:34.179)
to be.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:35.179)
So this guy decided to kidnap a mascot chicken from a grocery store because he thought he
Unknown Speaker (00:49:38.380)
could raise it better.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:39.659)
It's being reported by Alex as a case where the government just oppressed a good Samaritan
Unknown Speaker (00:49:43.059)
who wanted to help out a chicken experiencing homelessness.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:46.099)
This is what we call the Info Wars filter, where a real life story gets turned into complete
Unknown Speaker (00:49:50.239)
bullshit designed to make the audience feel like they're under attack.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:53.659)
What if you just thought you could help this chicken out?
Unknown Speaker (00:49:56.380)
What about you'd get raided by the SWAT team and they'd all beat you up?
Unknown Speaker (00:49:59.539)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:00.539)
It's nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:01.539)
I find- here's something that I find interesting.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:03.900)
In the past.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:04.900)
It feels like when we go deep into stories in the past, the story is always far more
Unknown Speaker (00:50:11.659)
interesting than the bullshit that Alex makes up.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:14.059)
Generally.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:15.059)
In the present though, because he doesn't get those cool stories and he just goes off
Unknown Speaker (00:50:19.659)
headlines from like regular mainstream media, we don't get to find out the interesting,
Unknown Speaker (00:50:25.219)
all of a sudden this weird divorced guy story.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:26.980)
Well because at this point Alex is getting his news from like-
Unknown Speaker (00:50:29.699)
From weirdos who are divorced!
Unknown Speaker (00:50:31.760)
Or weird aggregators of stories, you know like there was Fark that was like, they had
Unknown Speaker (00:50:36.539)
the headline aggregator that you could like- Alex is getting stuff from sites like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:42.099)
And so some of them are fucking weird nonsense stories, but then also there is a bias that
Unknown Speaker (00:50:47.099)
we have.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:48.099)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:49.099)
Because these stories are so far in the past, we know how they end.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:51.820)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:52.820)
And so you can see the totality of it, whereas in the present you're just like, well, here's
Unknown Speaker (00:50:58.000)
what's happened so far.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:59.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:00.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:01.699)
Dead internet theory has some very coincidental aspects to it, but man, sometimes whenever
Unknown Speaker (00:51:07.659)
you think about like- When the internet dies, it'll turn into a
Unknown Speaker (00:51:11.500)
skeleton.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:12.500)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:13.500)
With a fez.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:14.500)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:15.500)
We're gonna cut it in half while we wear fezes.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:17.019)
Sounds good.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:18.260)
So there's another news story that Alex has on this episode that kind of blew my mind.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:22.980)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:23.980)
We'll be getting into that.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:24.980)
Also, a new mainstream article about how the US got Canada into World War II.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:30.139)
A lot of evidence shows, according to Canadian papers, that the US government shelled a lighthouse
Unknown Speaker (00:51:38.099)
to blame it on the Germans.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:39.780)
And I'm not defending the Nazis here.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:42.219)
I'm just giving you an historical example- I'm not defending the Nazis?
Unknown Speaker (00:51:44.820)
The problem reaction solution.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:48.340)
Folks, I rarely see this big of an overload of key stories.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:51.860)
I'm gonna try to just news blitz through all of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:55.900)
So Canada was in World War II well before the United States was.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:58.900)
I was gonna say- They entered the war in September 1939, a
Unknown Speaker (00:52:02.019)
good two years before Pearl Harbor, which Alex also thinks is a false flag that the
Unknown Speaker (00:52:05.659)
globalist pulled to get the country into war.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:07.260)
Now, I know that I hear Alex saying that he's not into the Nazis, but man, he sure seems
Unknown Speaker (00:52:11.500)
to think that everybody who fought them was tricked into doing it.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:14.579)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:15.579)
That's strange.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:16.579)
I just wanna- I just feel like at the time, Canada was closer to England.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:21.539)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:22.539)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:23.539)
You know, they were real tight.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:24.539)
Well, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:25.539)
You know?
Unknown Speaker (00:52:26.539)
They had some years previous- Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:28.900)
They weren't under the king.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:30.179)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:31.179)
And they had made it very clear the parliament would make their decisions.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:33.980)
They were not necessarily- We don't do what you tell us to do.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:35.900)
They weren't necessarily just gonna follow the UK into any war.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:39.340)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:40.340)
But in that case, they decided that it was worth, you know, rallying around.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:44.619)
And also, we will make sure that ceremonial and nothing happens unless you sign off on
Unknown Speaker (00:52:49.380)
it.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:50.380)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:51.380)
And, ironically, the prime minister back then was named king, which makes it very confusing
Unknown Speaker (00:52:54.099)
to read articles.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:55.099)
Very, very frustrating.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:56.099)
Very frustrating.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:57.099)
Even though the monarch was a queen?
Unknown Speaker (00:52:59.019)
No, wait.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:00.019)
Oh, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:01.019)
Elizabeth wasn't queen in 1939, was she?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:02.820)
You know, sometimes I feel like, sure, it's not fair, and sure, it's arbitrary, but no,
Unknown Speaker (00:53:07.840)
you can't have this job because your name is king.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:10.260)
Like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:11.260)
I understand that maybe he's the best person for the job, but do you know who else is good
Unknown Speaker (00:53:15.260)
at the job?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:16.260)
The second best person, and their name is not king.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:18.820)
Prince.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:19.820)
Done.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:20.820)
See?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:21.820)
Thank God.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:22.820)
I thought I was imagining things.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:24.059)
Elizabeth came into power in 52.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:25.900)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:26.900)
I was like, is it possible that she was queen in 39?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:30.260)
No, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:31.260)
I believe it.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:33.780)
Which one?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:34.780)
Well, she was there forever.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:37.019)
Well, sure, but she wasn't the real queen.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:39.380)
What?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:40.380)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:41.380)
Was there a shadow queen?
Unknown Speaker (00:53:42.380)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:43.380)
Oh, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:44.380)
We'll talk about that later, because now, we have to hear about what happened to Oza
Unknown Speaker (00:53:46.579)
Motley.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:47.579)
Yes, we do.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:48.579)
Oza Motley, the Grammy Award winning band, and it's not some heavy metal band, it's not
Unknown Speaker (00:53:54.380)
Janet Jackson, it's...
Unknown Speaker (00:53:57.380)
One nipple on TV, and the world went fucking insane.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:01.780)
Band music and Caribbean music, I mean, I'm not the connoisseur of music, but just a tame
Unknown Speaker (00:54:08.500)
band, never been in trouble, never had any problems, and the fire marshal came in and
Unknown Speaker (00:54:12.940)
said, during South by Southwest a few weeks ago, you need to get a lot of these people
Unknown Speaker (00:54:18.280)
out of the building.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:19.780)
Will you help us?
Unknown Speaker (00:54:20.780)
And they said, sure, we'll do a moranga, you know, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:24.099)
I'm sorry, that's the story we're going with?
Unknown Speaker (00:54:26.940)
To downtown, where they had all the streets shut down, I mean, it's a big party down there,
Unknown Speaker (00:54:31.340)
and then the black ski mask guardians that take good care of us ran up and said, get
Unknown Speaker (00:54:36.300)
back in the club, they said, okay, tried to turn around, and had the police behind them
Unknown Speaker (00:54:42.539)
yelling at them, and one of the band members had his big drum up above his head, because
Unknown Speaker (00:54:47.940)
that's how you get through a crowd, and he's trying to carry it, and the police thought
Unknown Speaker (00:54:51.300)
that that was threatening, and ran in, and jumped on him, and then they fell over, and
Unknown Speaker (00:54:56.380)
this is the new America, they assault you on video.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:01.219)
I mean, that'd be like watching a pro football game, and somebody sticks the quarterback
Unknown Speaker (00:55:06.260)
after the ball's not in play, and you watch the linebacker break the ribs of the quarterback,
Unknown Speaker (00:55:13.179)
blood sprays from the quarterback's mouth, and then the police come and arrest the quarterback,
Unknown Speaker (00:55:18.500)
and say, you devil, you assaulted them.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:20.900)
Here, I'll use the sports analogy.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:22.300)
This is not a good analogy.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:23.780)
But it's a sports one.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:24.780)
That is true.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:25.780)
You're from sports.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:26.780)
I am from sports.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:27.780)
You should appreciate it.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:28.780)
Well, it's a different sport.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:29.780)
There's a lot of the story right here, but he's fudging a few details in order to make
Unknown Speaker (00:55:32.500)
it work better for his oppression-obsessed audience.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:36.340)
First of all, I can find no indication that the fire marshal told Ozamatli to help get
Unknown Speaker (00:55:40.199)
people out of the Exodus Club, which is the name of the bar they're playing at.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:44.400)
They would likely never be put in that situation, since bars have staff that handles that kind
Unknown Speaker (00:55:49.880)
of thing, and they would never need to rely on a band like pied piper-ing the crowd out
Unknown Speaker (00:55:53.860)
of the building.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:55.400)
That's nuts.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:56.400)
Also, in an interview they did with Pitch KC, they said, quote, we always end an Ozo
Unknown Speaker (00:56:01.099)
show with a conga line.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:02.840)
And we had gone outside with it when we'd played Austin before, so we didn't know that
Unknown Speaker (00:56:06.639)
it would be a problem.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:07.639)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:08.639)
So that's kind of part of their thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:09.739)
But Alex has the instinct to heighten stories, to increase the level of fuckery going on.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:14.260)
It's not enough that the police outside told them to stop it.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:16.739)
They needed to only have gone outside because some other agent of the state had told them
Unknown Speaker (00:56:20.760)
they needed to.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:22.219)
This way, Alex can create the impression of a trap being set by the state, where they
Unknown Speaker (00:56:25.340)
get you to do something with one hand and then punish you for doing it with the other.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:29.920)
The other thing Alex is misrepresenting is the issue with the drummer.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:33.119)
He did hit an officer with his drum, but it was totally an accident.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:36.280)
Alex is pretending this isn't the case because it makes it easier for him to sell his story
Unknown Speaker (00:56:39.800)
when the party you're supposed to be pulling for didn't even do the thing that they're
Unknown Speaker (00:56:43.280)
accused of.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:44.280)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:45.280)
It's really easy to side with Ozo Motley and see this as an instance of overzealous police
Unknown Speaker (00:56:49.159)
response without rewriting any of the story, and yet Alex does just that.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:53.440)
There's a couple of reasons he does this.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:55.320)
The first is just narrative simplicity.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:57.559)
He wants to make this super easy for the audience to get on board with and not have pesky questions
Unknown Speaker (00:57:01.900)
in their head like, why would they do a conga line out into the streets at 2.30 in the morning?
Unknown Speaker (00:57:06.239)
There's a good, interesting question.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:07.360)
To sidestep any of the possible audience response like that, Alex includes the preemptive answer
Unknown Speaker (00:57:12.000)
in the form of the story about the fire marshal imploring them to do the conga line.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:16.320)
The other reason is that Alex isn't up to the task of arguing a sticky point.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:20.320)
If it's possible that the members of the band made some mistakes themselves, it's so
Unknown Speaker (00:57:23.960)
much harder for Alex to make his argument because he's lazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:27.159)
They have to have done nothing wrong and the state oppressed them anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:30.179)
That's just how evil the state is.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:32.039)
It's the same instinct that drives him to not mention the other signs that that guy
Unknown Speaker (00:57:34.960)
had up in his yard and the fact that he had a pre-existing relationship with the judge.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:39.239)
You just make a saint out of one party.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:41.960)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:42.960)
It's really a shame, too, because these are instances where you can address and deal with
Unknown Speaker (00:57:46.840)
reality and still end up with similar conclusions to where Alex gets.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:51.099)
These are places where there's a theoretical possibility to find common ground with Alex,
Unknown Speaker (00:57:54.599)
but I can't.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:55.880)
Even if I agree with much of the conclusion that he comes to, the way he got there isn't
Unknown Speaker (00:57:59.239)
grounded in reality.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:01.039)
That's a formula for getting off track, and I'm not going to side with it.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:04.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:05.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:06.840)
It is like this.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:07.840)
You think, oh, Alex is at my rally.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:11.519)
Alex is hanging out with me.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:12.760)
We're all together on this side, not doing that thing, but then the longer you're around
Unknown Speaker (00:58:18.599)
Alex, the more you're in a Nazi rally, and you're like, I didn't even mean to be here.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:24.119)
I was just talking about the thing, and that's kind of how it works, I think.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:28.840)
It's a process issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:32.360)
You can use the wrong equation and get the right answer sometimes, but it's unreliable,
Unknown Speaker (00:58:39.639)
and I resent it.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:41.559)
It is fascinating that when you look at these things from 2004, it is more common that we
Unknown Speaker (00:58:46.119)
come up with a, well, yeah, I mean, Alex is saying that it's wrong that they arrested
Unknown Speaker (00:58:50.559)
these members of Oza Motley, and like, yep, that's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:53.320)
It's wrong that they arrested this guy who had the sign up in his yard.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:56.739)
That's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:57.739)
Still got fundamental disagreements with the way that Alex is covering these stories.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:01.719)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:02.719)
Well, I think ultimately, Alex is anti-government in a situation where, yeah, the government's
Unknown Speaker (00:59:09.039)
wrong, but now it seems like he's anti-government, but only because the government isn't doing
Unknown Speaker (00:59:14.599)
things that are evil.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:16.159)
You mean in the present day?
Unknown Speaker (00:59:17.800)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:18.800)
Yep, there's some of that.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:19.800)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:20.800)
So we have another story from the world.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:23.800)
By the way, in England, ID cards to be compulsory by 08, Tony Blair says after the latest bombs
Unknown Speaker (00:59:30.320)
they supposedly found and saved everybody from, the same British government that's been
Unknown Speaker (00:59:34.119)
caught blowing up their own buildings, the same British government that's been caught
Unknown Speaker (00:59:39.159)
running a fake Ryerson scare last year.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:44.400)
Everyone in Britain can be forced to have identity cards within five years under a fast
Unknown Speaker (00:59:47.840)
track plan by David Blunkett, which is backed by Tony Blair, and gaining support within
Unknown Speaker (00:59:52.079)
the cabinet.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:54.400)
And it says that the public is very angry, they say this is Nazi Germany, big brother.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:58.920)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:59.920)
But you see, in England they're more honest about it.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:02.119)
You're going to have a national ID card.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:03.820)
So national IDs became available for citizens to voluntarily acquire after the passage of
Unknown Speaker (01:00:08.039)
the Identity Cards Act of 2006.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:10.000)
It wasn't popular, and only about 15,000 of the 60-something million UK citizens applied
Unknown Speaker (01:00:16.000)
for one, and then the whole thing was scrapped in 2011.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:18.280)
Yeah, that sounds right.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:19.320)
If it was like an evil authoritarian power grab, they fucked up every step of the plan.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:24.400)
That was the worst power grab.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:25.920)
It was.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:26.920)
It was a power shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:27.920)
It was a power throwaway, I guess.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:30.000)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:31.000)
You know, Alex has this fantasy of like every time you cede some sort of authority, you'll
Unknown Speaker (01:00:36.039)
never get it back.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:37.039)
Well, they introduced these ID cards, and then they just scrapped it in 2011.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:41.880)
I just find the specific examples in the world, a lot of times, you know, vaccine passports
Unknown Speaker (01:00:47.440)
and other examples of that.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:49.199)
Like a lot of countries adopted them, they don't use them anymore.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:51.840)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:52.840)
It's just sometimes people just not do stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:56.079)
I want to get back to the lighthouse thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:57.960)
Oh, okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:58.960)
Wait, wait.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:59.960)
Why?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:00.960)
Because.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:01.960)
Because.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:02.960)
You're talking about Canada.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:03.960)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:04.960)
Because the more I thought about it, the more I think, how awful would you feel if that
Unknown Speaker (01:01:10.679)
story was true, not because of the America doing the thing, but because it took a lighthouse?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:18.719)
That's what it took?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:19.719)
To get into World War II, you were like, oh, well, now that they've hit this lighthouse,
Unknown Speaker (01:01:23.400)
now it's time to get involved.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:26.039)
Let me assure you it's not true.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:27.440)
And also, it wasn't done to blame the Germans, because it was on the west coast of...
Unknown Speaker (01:01:32.639)
It was on Japan.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:33.639)
It was to blame the Japan.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:34.639)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:35.639)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:36.639)
I mean, Alex is all over the place.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:37.639)
Yeah, yeah, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:38.639)
It makes sense.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:39.639)
But don't worry about it.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:40.639)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:41.639)
But I'm just saying that it suddenly hit me like that's the saddest thing I could think
Unknown Speaker (01:01:44.639)
of.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:45.639)
It was like, oh, well, great.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:46.639)
Now that they've hit this lighthouse.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:47.639)
It's a pretty cool lighthouse.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:48.639)
I bet it would be a great lighthouse.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:49.639)
I've seen pictures of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:50.639)
And it is actually strategically important in terms of some trade routes and stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:54.639)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:55.639)
No, 100%.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:56.639)
I agree.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:57.639)
But yeah, we'll talk about it right at the end of this episode when Alex gets back to
Unknown Speaker (01:02:01.400)
the story.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:02.400)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:03.400)
I thought we were done with it, and now I was getting back to it.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:05.679)
No, he brings it back up at the end.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:07.280)
Right at the end.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:08.280)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:09.280)
But now I've spoiled that.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:10.280)
The instincts.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:11.280)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:12.280)
So the board op here accidentally...
Unknown Speaker (01:02:13.840)
This is the only thing that I'm going to play from the Ozamont League interview.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:16.480)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:17.480)
It's because it's kind of funny.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:18.480)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:19.480)
And the board op makes a little mistake.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:20.559)
A few weeks ago, we had this big thing called South by Southwest like that for about a decade
Unknown Speaker (01:02:26.639)
here, and hundreds of rock bands come in, other types of musicians.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:31.480)
Indicated radio interview right now.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:33.599)
Wake up!
Unknown Speaker (01:02:34.599)
You know what, George, I think you put our guest on air while she's trying to get one
Unknown Speaker (01:02:40.639)
of the other band members on, but that's okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:46.360)
This is a lot of fun.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:47.360)
It is fun.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:48.360)
Taking a little nap before they go on the radio.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:50.400)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:51.400)
Or just not up yet.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:52.400)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:53.400)
They're rocking rollers.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:54.400)
Yeah!
Unknown Speaker (01:02:55.400)
So their manager was trying to wake them up to go do the interview.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:57.000)
That's fun.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:58.000)
I like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:59.000)
Good times.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:00.039)
That's good band stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:01.039)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:02.039)
Yeah, for sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:03.039)
It's charming.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:04.039)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:05.039)
So no need to really talk about that interview, because like I said, it's boring.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:08.159)
It all worked out in the end, too.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:09.559)
But there's another interview.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:10.800)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:11.800)
Which is...
Unknown Speaker (01:03:12.800)
Divorced.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:13.800)
Still bored, man.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:14.800)
There we go.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:15.800)
Bringing up our guest, Phillip Dean.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:16.800)
Phillip, good to have you on the show.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:18.800)
Yeah!
Unknown Speaker (01:03:19.800)
Hello.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:20.800)
Welcome.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:21.800)
Tell us a little bit about yourself and why you put the sign up and what happened.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:27.159)
Well, I live in Jackson County, Alabama, I'm a logging contractor, self-employed, and I
Unknown Speaker (01:03:33.039)
went through a bad divorce, and the mother was letting the children run wild and take
Unknown Speaker (01:03:39.159)
drugs and into all kinds of trouble, so I took her back to court on June 23rd of last
Unknown Speaker (01:03:46.440)
year to try to seek custody of my two daughters.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:49.840)
I have three kids, but I have custody of my son.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:53.440)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:54.440)
So I went back to court and I hired an attorney that wasn't no good, and he never got it into
Unknown Speaker (01:04:00.559)
court, so I had to get another attorney, paid another attorney, supposed to have been the
Unknown Speaker (01:04:05.400)
best attorney in Scotchburg.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:07.920)
We go to court, my ex-wife shows up without an attorney, and the judge gives the kids
Unknown Speaker (01:04:13.079)
back to her.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:15.079)
Damn!
Unknown Speaker (01:04:16.079)
Tough.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:17.079)
Boy, the details of that story, I bet, are so sad.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:21.159)
Scotchburg!
Unknown Speaker (01:04:22.159)
If you really dug in there, you would get real sad.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:25.320)
I would assume so.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:26.320)
He does say repeatedly that the kids run wild, and that the mind reels at what that could
Unknown Speaker (01:04:32.119)
possibly mean.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:33.119)
Yeah, there's no part of that dad story that doesn't need him to be like, we're going to
Unknown Speaker (01:04:38.440)
put you in counseling, we're going to get you some people, we're going to figure out.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:42.000)
You know what's fun?
Unknown Speaker (01:04:43.119)
Just doing anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:44.159)
You can do anything in that little thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:45.159)
Do you like crafts?
Unknown Speaker (01:04:46.159)
Yeah, we can do that.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:47.159)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:48.159)
So Alex has asked Dean to tell his story, and naturally for him, that story begins with
Unknown Speaker (01:04:51.079)
his ugly divorce and messy custody battle.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:53.739)
That's the inciting incident for the whole sign thing, so it's natural for him to bring
Unknown Speaker (01:04:57.440)
that up.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:58.639)
That's also the case in pretty much every article about Dean getting arrested over the
Unknown Speaker (01:05:03.320)
sign.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:04.320)
The beginning of the incident is a custody hearing, because without that event, he never
Unknown Speaker (01:05:07.179)
would have put that sign up in the first place.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:09.579)
But on InfoWars, this is the first that we're hearing of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:12.920)
It does seem strange.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:13.920)
And Alex is telling of the story, this is just supposed to be a guy with a political
Unknown Speaker (01:05:16.840)
message to get out and a judge with no connection to him punishing him for daring to criticize
Unknown Speaker (01:05:21.400)
the state.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:22.699)
Because I know the story, when I hear Dean get into this, I'm not surprised.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:26.420)
But if I were an average InfoWars listener, I might be confused as to why this brave patriot
Unknown Speaker (01:05:31.119)
is starting off his story complaining about custody hearings.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:34.139)
It doesn't seem on message or on point, because the point has been obscured.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:39.360)
Yeah, it is one of the things where we do consistently see him running up against people
Unknown Speaker (01:05:45.539)
who do not know what the game is in the past.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:48.519)
He has a lot of guests on who are suddenly surprised to be like, wait, wait, wait, you
Unknown Speaker (01:05:53.719)
didn't want me to say the thing that you...
Unknown Speaker (01:05:55.960)
I don't think that Alex doesn't want him to say it.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:58.440)
I mean, they're freely talking about this at this point, because once the guy is on
Unknown Speaker (01:06:03.119)
the show, there's no real denying that this is the reality of the situation.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:07.360)
But as long as Alex was laying the groundwork of this storyline, he's not giving the audience
Unknown Speaker (01:06:11.800)
a window in until it's forced in by the subject of the story itself.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:17.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:18.239)
I mean, does he tell us what he wants?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:20.679)
He wants his kids.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:21.679)
Oh, that's no good.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:24.119)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:25.119)
But he also wants maybe to put up more signs.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:27.840)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:29.000)
That's probably not good either.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:30.239)
I don't think that's going to resolve the scenario.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:32.000)
I think that might just escalate things.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:34.019)
But he did put up more signs, just than the one that Alex has mentioned.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:37.760)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:38.760)
Are we going to get into that?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:39.760)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:40.760)
I don't think that Alex asks him about the other signs, because Alex doesn't mention
Unknown Speaker (01:06:43.840)
the other signs.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:44.840)
He hasn't told us anything at all about it.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:45.840)
He just said there was a small sign.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:46.840)
Our county court system is a joke.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:47.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:48.840)
Barely said anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:49.840)
I had a similar sign that says Judge Harrelson said, my minor children, age 13 and 15, need
Unknown Speaker (01:06:56.880)
to be with their mother, even though she let some smoke bot take drugs and run wild.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:01.639)
Tighten it up.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:02.639)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:03.639)
So now instead of civilly going after you or something else, he believes he's God, and
Unknown Speaker (01:07:07.639)
he has to take your property, no zoning violation.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:10.519)
You're on a county road, 107, out in the country, and these are little signs.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:15.599)
You stick them in your yard, but they don't come up with some little technicality to try
Unknown Speaker (01:07:18.840)
to get you.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:19.840)
They just take your signs, take your property, in America, something our veterans have fought
Unknown Speaker (01:07:24.199)
and died for.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:25.199)
I honestly...
Unknown Speaker (01:07:26.199)
Oh, come on now.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:27.280)
It's a little much.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:28.280)
I would suggest that I would fine him or have the sign taken down because it's so long.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:35.280)
That could cause an accident.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:38.920)
Someone reading the ages of his kids, their mother is letting them run wild.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:42.800)
Judge Harrelson, oh no, shut up, fuck.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:45.000)
If that's next to a blind turn, you will kill people.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:48.360)
It's too slow.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:49.360)
Caution.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:50.360)
Slow readers are available.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:51.360)
Caution.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:52.360)
Long sign coming up.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:53.360)
Yeah, you need a sign to warn people about the sign.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:56.679)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:57.679)
Now that is a compromise I will accept.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:59.079)
Yeah, definitely.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:00.079)
Definitely.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:01.079)
You should be allowed to say what you want by a sign.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:03.480)
If the judge was just, tighten it up, that sign's unwieldy, or something like that, then
Unknown Speaker (01:08:10.199)
this whole thing is resolved.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:11.199)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:13.199)
Yeah, not infringing on your free speech, but that's a mess.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:16.640)
Yeah, I'm not going to judge you, I'm going to give you some feedback.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:21.079)
How about that?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:22.079)
Now I'm giving you feedback from the bench.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:24.079)
No, no, I mean it's a little bit of a different spot.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:26.479)
Just because I'm a judge doesn't mean I can't be an editor.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:29.239)
Tighten it up.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:30.239)
Hey, tighten it up.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:31.239)
So, um, the judge, he's God.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:33.720)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:34.720)
He's God of the county.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:35.720)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:36.720)
Now obviously the judge was in a delusional power trip state when he said 30 days, but
Unknown Speaker (01:08:41.880)
then he changed his mind and claims he apologized.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:45.720)
Number one, is that true?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:46.720)
Number two, why do you think he finally woke up that he was engaging in Soviet-style behavior?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:51.239)
Well, he's the God of Jackson County.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:54.239)
I'm glad you said that.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:56.239)
First off...
Unknown Speaker (01:08:57.239)
He is the God.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:58.239)
He is the God.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:59.239)
He is the principality.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:00.239)
First off, he put me in jail.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:02.600)
My sister got on the phone and she talked to just about every attorney in Scotchboro.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:07.239)
They said, no way, no way will we touch this case.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:11.640)
You've always got to bring in a lawyer or be family friends with them or family.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:17.239)
That's the type I've got.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:18.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:19.239)
Not anymore.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:20.239)
By the way, with my lawyers, they walk in and devastate everything because they're not
Unknown Speaker (01:09:23.199)
part of the system.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:24.199)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:25.199)
All these lawyers told my sister, not no, but hell no.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:32.000)
One of the attorneys I was friends with in Scotchboro that I've known for a long time,
Unknown Speaker (01:09:36.319)
he called my sister back on the phone and told her, said, I didn't tell you this, but
Unknown Speaker (01:09:41.079)
you need to get out of Scotchboro and get your brother a lawyer because everyone in
Unknown Speaker (01:09:46.920)
Scotchboro is as scared to go up to God against the God, Judge Harrelson.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:51.920)
So that's...
Unknown Speaker (01:09:52.920)
Wait, wait.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:53.920)
He's called God?
Unknown Speaker (01:09:54.920)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:55.920)
Oh man.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:56.920)
Stop saying Scotchboro.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:57.920)
Wow.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:58.920)
I can't handle it.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:59.920)
Ah, man.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:00.920)
Yeah, so he's the God of the county.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:03.720)
To be fair, Alex said this earlier, so maybe this guy is mirroring what Alex said earlier
Unknown Speaker (01:10:08.359)
that the guy is the God.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:10.600)
So I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:13.359)
I find him unconvincing.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:16.359)
Here's my general vibe.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:17.960)
I think maybe he got turned down by a few attorneys.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:20.159)
My general vibe is that everybody fucking hates this guy, and that no, he's not wrong,
Unknown Speaker (01:10:26.159)
and that no, you can't get him on anything, but everybody just really does not like this
Unknown Speaker (01:10:31.199)
guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:32.199)
It may be.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:34.560)
I think maybe more it's a case of like...
Unknown Speaker (01:10:39.239)
Fletch too?
Unknown Speaker (01:10:40.239)
No, who knows how many different variables there could be for a person not wanting to
Unknown Speaker (01:10:44.560)
take his case.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:45.560)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:46.560)
It's a loser of a case.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:47.560)
I'm not going to win this.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:48.560)
I'm trying to build a reputation in this town.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:50.039)
I don't like that guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:51.039)
He doesn't have the money, or I'm too busy.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:55.760)
There's a number of reasons that lawyers could turn this down, and it's more fun to imagine
Unknown Speaker (01:10:59.520)
it's like, I can't do that because I would anger the judge by practicing law.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:05.479)
Hey, believe me, I don't discount the insane power of a municipal court judge out of control.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:15.600)
You read stories about the ones that are like, ah, I judge you, and then you're like, you
Unknown Speaker (01:11:20.359)
can't really do that, and they're like, apparently I can.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:23.039)
It's magic world.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:24.039)
You know what you read more of, though?
Unknown Speaker (01:11:25.680)
Sheriffs like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:26.800)
Yes, you do.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:27.800)
Man, we got to keep people who are crazy away from having a lot of power.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:32.359)
Especially that kind of like unitary, just singular power.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:36.800)
Jesus.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:37.800)
So I found something very interesting in the way that Dean talks, and that is that he seems
Unknown Speaker (01:11:43.399)
to have very different priorities than Alex, and it comes out here.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:47.279)
Well, they'd do good in China, wouldn't they?
Unknown Speaker (01:11:49.880)
Yes, they would.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:50.880)
Judge Harrelson would do great.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:52.439)
I don't think he would.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:54.800)
Is it sad to you to see this happening in America?
Unknown Speaker (01:11:56.800)
I don't think he speaks Mandarin.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:57.800)
Yes, it is, and it's even more sad to see what this judicial system has done to my family.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:03.319)
They have destroyed my children's life.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:07.920)
Well that's, that's, so you're all chained up now.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:11.920)
By bringing in before his lordship, let's just call him his lordship.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:15.199)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:16.199)
So you see the way that Alex changed the subject.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:18.800)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:19.800)
You get the sense listening to this interview that Philip Dean is primarily focused on his
Unknown Speaker (01:12:23.359)
family.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:24.359)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:25.359)
This whole thing started because he had a belief that his children were not being raised
Unknown Speaker (01:12:27.600)
in a safe environment with his ex-wife.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:29.680)
He put up the sign primarily because he lost the custody hearing, and then he couldn't
Unknown Speaker (01:12:34.279)
afford what it would cost to pay a lawyer for an appeal, which convinced him that the
Unknown Speaker (01:12:37.920)
court system is a joke.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:39.640)
He did seem to target the judge in the case more than really expensive lawyers, but I'll
Unknown Speaker (01:12:44.479)
leave that to the side.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:45.479)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:46.479)
That's his choice.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:47.479)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:48.479)
The point is he mostly just cares about his family.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:49.479)
He seems pissed off at the court, and this judge in particular, but he's mad because
Unknown Speaker (01:12:53.479)
their decisions left his kids with his ex-wife, who he thinks is not keeping them safe.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:58.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:59.239)
Conversely, Alex doesn't care about that at all.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:00.720)
He just wants to use Dean's story as a prop to incite the audience against the prevailing
Unknown Speaker (01:13:04.760)
power structure.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:06.079)
He just wants to do all this shit about how judges are selfish and vain gods, meeting
Unknown Speaker (01:13:10.359)
out justice on their petty whims.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:12.880)
It's an interesting dynamic because I don't think that Dean is that politically inclined,
Unknown Speaker (01:13:16.439)
but he has a story that's very useful to be exploited by Alex, who is deeply politically
Unknown Speaker (01:13:21.039)
inclined.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:22.159)
It doesn't feel like Dean is an unwilling participant in this whole thing, and he's
Unknown Speaker (01:13:25.199)
definitely going along with whatever Alex is laying down, but I get a strong sense that
Unknown Speaker (01:13:29.239)
if someone had just agreed to represent him in his custody appeal pro bono, none of this
Unknown Speaker (01:13:33.239)
would be happening.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:34.520)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:35.520)
This is... Do you know what I feel like from Dean pre-internet?
Unknown Speaker (01:13:41.479)
This is somebody who does not have the... Like now, this is a person who has already got
Unknown Speaker (01:13:48.680)
an Instagram account about how angry stuff is.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:52.680)
This is a person who's already spinning this into their five minutes or whatever.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:55.640)
The billboard might as well have been a shit post.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:57.680)
Totally.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:58.680)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:59.680)
Then he would have had a thing, and then there would have been a big fight, and then he could
Unknown Speaker (01:14:01.960)
have been selling small billboards.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:04.640)
That all would have happened in the post-internet.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:08.520)
Here he is just like, I put up billboards.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:12.279)
It's the only thing I could do.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:13.619)
It's the only thing I could do because I don't understand.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:16.819)
It's yelling into the ether, essentially.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:20.159)
That's what posting online is, too.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:22.239)
Yeah, exactly.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:23.239)
No, it is... Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:24.239)
But it is so interesting to me that he seems to be aware of some kind of political corruption
Unknown Speaker (01:14:30.359)
in Scotchburg or whatever.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:32.079)
I bet there is.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:33.319)
I'm sure there is, too.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:34.319)
I bet there is.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:35.319)
But he would never have done any of this stuff if it weren't personally affecting his connection
Unknown Speaker (01:14:39.600)
with his family.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:40.600)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:41.600)
That's the only real thing that matters to him, whereas Alex wants to take down judges.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:50.199)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:51.199)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:52.840)
Alex would like to be George Washington, and this guy's like, let's take down King George
Unknown Speaker (01:14:57.720)
because he is fucking pissing on my lawn.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:00.920)
I'm not saying that he is a great person.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:03.439)
I have no idea.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:04.439)
That's pretty much what America did, really.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:06.720)
Fair.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:07.720)
But I'm not saying that he should necessarily have custody of his kids.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:11.000)
I have no idea.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:12.000)
I don't know the circumstances.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:13.000)
It may very well be that he is a negligent and bad parent.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:18.479)
That's possible.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:20.479)
But his priority or his concern in terms of the story that we're talking about is all
Unknown Speaker (01:15:25.479)
familial.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:26.479)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:27.479)
And that's unfortunate because he's being used.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:29.560)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:30.560)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:31.560)
I mean, that's what it is.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:32.560)
It's in the pre-internet era, it felt like people were being used.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:37.359)
And now in the internet era, it feels like people are using them being used.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:43.039)
It's too, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:44.039)
Interesting.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:45.039)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:46.039)
So Alex tries to bring all of these stories together.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:50.399)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:51.399)
And in the process brings in another guest.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:53.600)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:54.600)
You'll never guess who it is.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:55.600)
It's the guy who stole a chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:56.600)
And that guy's wife.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:57.600)
It is not.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:58.600)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:59.600)
It really is?
Unknown Speaker (01:16:00.600)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:01.600)
It is not.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:02.600)
It is.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:03.600)
What?
Unknown Speaker (01:16:04.600)
So we've connected two disparate elements of our society that otherwise would never
Unknown Speaker (01:16:11.560)
have interacted?
Unknown Speaker (01:16:12.680)
They're on the phone at the same time.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:14.279)
This is amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:15.279)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:16.279)
This is what the show should have been for from the beginning.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:18.560)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:19.560)
Oh my God.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:20.560)
Now my friends, I see these type of articles every couple of days.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:23.720)
I don't even cover them on the air because there's so many of them.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:27.560)
But today we've been detailing some examples of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:30.039)
Oza Motley, the Grammy award-winning conga band, whatever you want to call it, kind of
Unknown Speaker (01:16:37.840)
Caribbean music.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:38.840)
Never been in trouble.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:39.840)
They mostly play limbo shows.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:40.840)
I was going to say.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:41.840)
I mean, the crowd was too big.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:44.840)
What Grammy do you win as a conga band?
Unknown Speaker (01:16:46.960)
Conga Grammy.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:47.960)
Our best Philip Dean put a sign in his yard.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:49.920)
Our court system is a joke.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:51.760)
The judge had the police take it, then arrest him.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:55.000)
He's on with us.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:56.100)
And then this story I heard about Friday, and I believed it, but I had to find the article
Unknown Speaker (01:16:59.979)
myself out of the mail tribune out of Oregon.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:05.600)
And it says it's off to jail for chicken rescuer.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:08.199)
Williams man thought he had been abandoned, little did he know that she was a town celebrity
Unknown Speaker (01:17:13.079)
in Murphy.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:14.079)
How do you not know a town celebrity?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:16.460)
Got our next guest here on the line, Nick Dombos and his wife, Kathy Dean, no relation
Unknown Speaker (01:17:24.359)
to Mr. Dean in Alabama.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:25.359)
Now we're going to the other side of the country to the West coast and in a nutshell, it's
Unknown Speaker (01:17:31.560)
a long article and I've got several other articles here on it.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:35.079)
You get a different story when you read the different articles together, you don't goes
Unknown Speaker (01:17:38.159)
there.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:39.159)
There's a section really go out by the side of the highway, it's going to get his thrifty
Unknown Speaker (01:17:47.279)
nickel and he goes in and says, I'm going to take this chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:50.439)
They say, sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:51.439)
Then he calls, and then all of a sudden the police come out and say, give us the check
Unknown Speaker (01:17:57.600)
in.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:58.600)
Let us in.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:59.600)
He said, no, bring a warrant.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:00.600)
What story is this?
Unknown Speaker (01:18:01.600)
He has diabetes and stuff from agent orange and his wife's joining us because sometimes
Unknown Speaker (01:18:07.239)
he has a problem with his long short term memory, she was saying long short term.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:11.119)
So in that clip you have Alex doing something that you very rarely see, which is presenting
Unknown Speaker (01:18:15.659)
stories that he's able to provide connective tissue for in order to build a theme.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:21.039)
All of these stories are supposed to be cases where the police overstepped.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:24.399)
There's a vibe that they can work together.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:26.880)
The issue here though is they really only have that connective tissue if you rely on
Unknown Speaker (01:18:30.439)
the reality that Alex paints instead of real world reality.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:34.359)
The case of Oza Motley involves a band ending their show with a conga line at two thirty
Unknown Speaker (01:18:38.060)
in the morning, which police told them they needed to stop, at which point the crowd got
Unknown Speaker (01:18:41.439)
a little heated and the drummer accidentally hit an officer with his drum.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:44.960)
The police overreacted in response to the entire thing, which was remedied by a compromise
Unknown Speaker (01:18:49.399)
in scaled down charges.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:50.399)
It was a police overreaction and resolved.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:54.880)
The case of Phillip Dean is one of judicial overstepping, but it's also a case that it's
Unknown Speaker (01:18:58.960)
a bit more debatable than Alex wants you to think.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:01.920)
Dean had previous business in front of the judge and directly attacked him in one of
Unknown Speaker (01:19:05.399)
the yard signs that Alex tried to pretend didn't exist.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:08.439)
There's a possibility that when the judge ordered Dean to be brought in for contempt,
Unknown Speaker (01:19:12.420)
he thought that Dean still had business in front of the court, like he may not have known
Unknown Speaker (01:19:16.779)
that the time limit for his custody appeal had lapsed.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:19.539)
That doesn't make this okay, but it makes it more understandable why it would possibly
Unknown Speaker (01:19:23.300)
be considered contempt by the judge.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:26.279)
The police overstepped, but only because they were following the orders of the judge, so
Unknown Speaker (01:19:29.720)
this really isn't similar to the Oza Motley case where it was the police actions.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:35.199)
It's only similar in terms of vibes.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:38.039)
And then we have the case of Nicholas Gombos, where a guy steals a chicken because he thought
Unknown Speaker (01:19:42.399)
he could raise it better than the grocery store for whom it was a mascot.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:45.880)
He had no right to take that chicken, it was somebody else's, and he refused to return
Unknown Speaker (01:19:49.220)
it and then threatened the police when they came to retrieve someone else's property that
Unknown Speaker (01:19:52.720)
he'd stolen.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:53.920)
He wasn't SWAT-teamed and he has memory problems, which is going to call into question a lot
Unknown Speaker (01:19:57.720)
of the stuff, like his claim that someone told him it was okay to take speckles, that
Unknown Speaker (01:20:02.399)
he called to give them updates.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:03.680)
I don't believe that shit, because they were actively looking for their lost mascot and
Unknown Speaker (01:20:08.039)
the store was closed when he took it.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:09.880)
And if he'd called to tell them where it was, this thing would have been resolved much more
Unknown Speaker (01:20:13.600)
quickly.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:14.600)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:15.600)
If you wanted to put connective tissue between all of these things, it would just simply
Unknown Speaker (01:20:18.619)
be that if you send people with guns to somewhere, they're going to make someplace worse.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:23.319)
Or the connective tissue is, that's some 2004 bullshit right there.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:26.920)
That is some strong 2004 bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:29.939)
But as it stands with Gombos, this isn't a case of the police or a judge overstepping.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:35.000)
It's a case of a man stealing a chicken and thinking it was his right to do that because
Unknown Speaker (01:20:38.859)
he felt he could treat it better than its owner.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:41.199)
It's a case of a crime being committed and the police arresting someone for that crime.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:44.979)
But by subtle finesse, Alex is able to wrap all these cases into a neat little bow, making
Unknown Speaker (01:20:49.600)
them appear to be a part of the cohesive whole.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:52.119)
But if you examine these cases more closely, that cohesive whole is just based on vibes.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:56.760)
Alex wants you to feel a certain way about these cases, and that is the connective tissue.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:01.479)
They're not all cases of police brutality.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:03.359)
They're not all cases of judicial impropriety.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:06.039)
They're not all cases of people's rights being infringed.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:09.039)
There's nothing that holds them firmly together other than they each have good optics for
Unknown Speaker (01:21:13.000)
Alex to use to make the listeners scared that the man is coming for them, so long as Alex
Unknown Speaker (01:21:18.000)
is able to fudge some of the details in order to build that vibe up.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:21.340)
For instance, in that clip, Alex says that Nicholas asked people if he could take the
Unknown Speaker (01:21:24.560)
chicken and they said it was fine.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:26.479)
That never happened.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:27.479)
And if you read the source that Alex himself is citing, they make it very clear that he
Unknown Speaker (01:21:31.239)
visited the store after hours.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:33.760)
There was no one there to get permission from.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:35.359)
But Alex knows that if he lies about that, it makes his subject seem more blameless,
Unknown Speaker (01:21:39.560)
and that helps him build the vibe of outright, somewhat comical police oppression.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:44.939)
Even with all that said, it's a staggering thing to see this kind of a swing on Alex's
Unknown Speaker (01:21:48.760)
show.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:49.760)
He's legitimately juggling three stories that he's pretending are all connected, and he's
Unknown Speaker (01:21:52.920)
trying to illustrate a theme.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:54.840)
I don't think he's successful in his attempt, but it is so much more ambitious.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:58.319)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:59.319)
It really is.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:00.319)
And also, I think he actually, well, one, I think he fails.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:03.960)
But I do think there is an incredible connective tissue between all three of these things,
Unknown Speaker (01:22:08.600)
which is that it is people being assholes, and then the problem being escalated through
Unknown Speaker (01:22:14.439)
the use of somebody who has guns.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:17.199)
It's simple.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:19.439)
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:20.600)
Don't go outside the fucking bar at 2.30.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:22.920)
Some people are trying to sleep.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:24.640)
Asshole behavior.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:25.939)
Everybody should go, hey, quit being an asshole, and then they go, I'm sorry, I was an asshole.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:29.039)
And then it's done.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:30.140)
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:31.140)
Putting billboards up?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:32.140)
What are you fucking doing?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:33.140)
Take them down.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:34.439)
Talk to your ex-wife.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:35.439)
Work shit out.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:36.439)
Get a fucking...
Unknown Speaker (01:22:37.439)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:38.439)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:39.439)
Problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:40.439)
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:41.439)
You stole that chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:42.439)
There's no reason to steal a chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:44.439)
Give back the damn chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:46.239)
Just give the chicken back.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:47.560)
Nope.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:48.560)
Guys with guns.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:49.560)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:50.560)
I'm telling you.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:51.560)
No guys with guns should go anywhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:53.560)
You almost slipped into Danny Callis there.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:55.199)
I really did.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:56.199)
It was so close.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:57.199)
It was so hard not to.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:59.199)
I think you're somewhat right, but I also don't think it's all people with guns, because
Unknown Speaker (01:23:05.520)
it is also just...
Unknown Speaker (01:23:07.159)
It's authority of a certain level that is unnecessary.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:10.960)
It's overkill.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:11.960)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:12.960)
Is essentially it.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:13.960)
It is like, this should be resolved by being people, and instead it's being resolved by
Unknown Speaker (01:23:18.800)
this over-the-top level that's not going to resolve it.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:21.640)
It's going to make it worse.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:22.640)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:23.640)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:24.640)
And the thing that is made worse is exploitable by someone like Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:28.600)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:29.600)
Because he can make it look like this is all about completely out of the blue, just the
Unknown Speaker (01:23:35.039)
state wanting to do this to you, as opposed to people who make some bad reactions to people
Unknown Speaker (01:23:41.439)
being dicks.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:42.439)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:43.439)
And I mean, so much of this is just like, listen, if you are a judge, you need to understand
Unknown Speaker (01:23:50.840)
that if you act like an asshole like this, Alex is going to convince a million people
Unknown Speaker (01:23:54.880)
that all judges are full of shit and evil.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:57.619)
Like that's on you.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:58.779)
That's on every single fucking one of you, because you get to wear a pretend robe that
Unknown Speaker (01:24:03.119)
makes you powerful.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:04.520)
Every time you put it on, you have to be better than the people who are not wearing the robe.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:09.039)
That's the idea.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:10.039)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:11.039)
I mean, I think that, yeah, you have a responsibility to the public.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:15.840)
And if you fuck up, guess what?
Unknown Speaker (01:24:17.319)
There's Alex right there.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:19.000)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:20.000)
And when you fuck up, it's not the man crushing a guy with a sign.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:27.399)
It's someone who made a bad decision, possibly in some good faith, because there is a decent
Unknown Speaker (01:24:34.500)
chance that that guy did think there was business in front of the court.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:39.840)
He did think that this was an egregious level of contempt.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:43.239)
His name was on the sign.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:45.359)
That's probably shit talk that you don't want to handle.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:47.720)
Now at the same time, as a judge, he's a public figure, so the bar for what you can and can't
Unknown Speaker (01:24:53.220)
say about them is a little wider than if he was just a private citizen.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:57.199)
But these instances, except for the chicken one, all have like-
Unknown Speaker (01:25:02.239)
That's a man who has memory problems who stole a chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:06.439)
The whole problem has nothing to do with chicken or stealing.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:09.840)
There's so many other things that need to be handled before we get into the, why did
Unknown Speaker (01:25:13.439)
this guy just steal a chicken?
Unknown Speaker (01:25:15.079)
That's a larger question.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:16.520)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:17.520)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:18.520)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:19.520)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:20.520)
But what I mean-
Unknown Speaker (01:25:21.520)
Sorry.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:22.520)
Is that the Oza Motley instance and the Billboard instance are both ones where the problem becoming
Unknown Speaker (01:25:31.319)
a problem is the bad decision made by the person with authority.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:35.119)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:36.119)
In the case of the chicken, that's not the case.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:38.119)
That's not the problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:39.119)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:40.119)
So that connective tissue that you're describing doesn't really, doesn't hold up.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:43.199)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:44.199)
I mean, come on, man.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:45.199)
The guy didn't mean to steal a chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:46.800)
He did.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:47.800)
He doesn't understand the concept of-
Unknown Speaker (01:25:48.800)
He absolutely did.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:49.800)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:50.800)
Well, he didn't mean to steal it, but he did mean to take that chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:51.800)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:52.800)
No, he totally meant to take that chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:53.800)
But the fact that the man meant to take that chicken is the problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:57.359)
Not anything else.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:58.359)
But he also-
Unknown Speaker (01:25:59.359)
The reasons behind his thinking are the problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:01.239)
Well, once he was informed that that's someone else's chicken, he still refused to give it
Unknown Speaker (01:26:05.000)
back.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:06.000)
Then there's the problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:07.000)
So then it may as well have been stealing from the beginning once he refused to address
Unknown Speaker (01:26:11.560)
it.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:12.560)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:13.560)
So anyway-
Unknown Speaker (01:26:14.560)
Give it back that chicken, Ben.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:15.560)
We get into the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:16.560)
... spacing a bunch of charges.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:18.199)
Now, they couldn't charge him with stealing a chicken, so what they do is-
Unknown Speaker (01:26:21.000)
Why not?
Unknown Speaker (01:26:22.000)
Then they claim that he didn't follow their orders, that he obstructed an officer, a failure
Unknown Speaker (01:26:26.680)
to follow an officer's order, because he didn't let them in without a warrant.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:30.479)
See, that's how it works now.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:32.439)
And they got a Supreme Court ruling on last Monday, seven days ago.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:37.920)
The Supreme Court ruled in a Nevada case of an old rancher on the side of the highway
Unknown Speaker (01:26:42.439)
at his own offense, amending offense.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:44.840)
The police officer pulls up, says, answer my questions, give me your ID, and he says,
Unknown Speaker (01:26:49.000)
son, don't be rude to me.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:50.000)
You know, I don't have to answer your questions.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:52.119)
I don't have to-
Unknown Speaker (01:26:53.119)
Well, so now you've got to have your national ID card, you see.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:56.640)
Then he was charged and convicted of obstructing justice and resisting, which would be assault,
Unknown Speaker (01:27:01.800)
and he got convicted of that.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:03.920)
They admit he didn't touch him.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:05.319)
This was in the Las Vegas Review Journal, folks, in a headline, The Road to the Police
Unknown Speaker (01:27:10.600)
State.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:11.600)
He didn't touch him, but it's now resisting to not answer their questions.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:17.000)
And so that's the same thing now that Nick Gombos is facing.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:21.699)
You can read this article.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:22.960)
So Alex said that they couldn't charge him with stealing the chicken at the beginning
Unknown Speaker (01:27:26.680)
of the clip, but they very much did charge him with theft.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:28.640)
I was going to say, that seems like what you used.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:29.640)
He had a third degree theft charge that he was hit with, and Alex is pretending that
Unknown Speaker (01:27:32.359)
didn't happen because it works better for this police state nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:34.680)
No, he stole the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:36.239)
So that Nevada case that Alex is talking about with his Supreme Court decision is Hable versus
Unknown Speaker (01:27:41.640)
Sixth District Court of Nevada.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:43.960)
That's the decision in play.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:46.399)
In that case, it had nothing to do with a kindly old rancher mending fences and then
Unknown Speaker (01:27:50.079)
cops just deciding to fuck with him.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:51.680)
He seemed like such a nice guy in Alex's telly.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:53.720)
He did.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:54.720)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:55.720)
So there had been a report to the police of a woman being assaulted, and the description
Unknown Speaker (01:27:58.199)
of the perpetrator was that he was driving a red and silver GMC truck.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:02.159)
They found a truck fitting that description seemingly hastily pulled over to the side
Unknown Speaker (01:28:05.779)
of the highway, and Larry Hable was outside of it smoking a cigarette.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:10.000)
I didn't hit nobody.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:11.399)
Also, a young woman was inside the truck.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:13.720)
Who's she?
Unknown Speaker (01:28:14.720)
This all added up to at least some very basic suspicion on the officer's part.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:18.600)
You guys have been drinking.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:19.640)
You wanted some identification from Hable, who refused to provide it.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:23.079)
What?
Unknown Speaker (01:28:24.079)
The officer was just trying to get more information, and Hable kept repeating, just take me to
Unknown Speaker (01:28:27.000)
jail and being entirely uncooperative.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:30.000)
Yeah, that sounds right.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:31.640)
When there's something being investigated and the police have a reasonable suspicion
Unknown Speaker (01:28:35.000)
about you, you are required to identify yourself to them in the state of Nevada.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:40.399)
That is a law that is on the books in Nevada.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:42.840)
Hable didn't do that, and he was charged with obstructing an officer over it, and then he
Unknown Speaker (01:28:46.319)
took it all the way to the Supreme Court.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:48.319)
The Supreme Court ruled that Nevada's stop-and-identify law was not unconstitutional, which has literally
Unknown Speaker (01:28:53.720)
zero bearing on how the Oregon police handled a guy who stole a check.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:57.199)
Yeah, that is zero bearing.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:58.199)
But they kind of connect on vibes.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:00.439)
They can be made to feel like they connected.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:03.000)
You just fudge some details.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:05.439)
I genuinely believe that the law should be that if you say to the cops, just take me
Unknown Speaker (01:29:10.979)
to jail, they should have to take you.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:12.880)
Like it should end there.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:13.880)
Well, they did.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:14.880)
Yeah, right?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:15.880)
There should be no further need for, like, ah, yes, we have no further business here.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:20.680)
I shall get into your car.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:21.680)
You shall take me to the police station.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:23.319)
We don't need to talk anymore.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:24.760)
That's how it works, right?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:26.000)
That's like the amendment where it's like anything you say, you know, that whole thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:29.479)
I think, uh, sure, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:32.119)
But what if you just want a ride?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:34.119)
What if you're going somewhere near the police station?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:37.039)
Do they give rides?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:39.000)
Or would you commit a crime to get a ride?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:41.000)
What if that guy's car was broken down, his truck was broken down, and that's why it was
Unknown Speaker (01:29:44.359)
hastily pulled over the road?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:45.760)
And you know that a cop is not going to voluntarily give you a ride.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:48.239)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:49.239)
Take me to jail.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:50.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:51.239)
Because I need to go to the...
Unknown Speaker (01:29:52.239)
Because across the street is a great coffee shop.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:53.859)
Or there's a place that I can get it towed.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:55.800)
There's a tow company there.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:56.800)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:57.800)
Oh, man.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:58.800)
And it's $2,000, so I don't have a cell phone.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:59.800)
Save you so much money.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:00.800)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:01.800)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:02.800)
Perfect.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:03.800)
Good call.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:04.800)
So, Gombos' wife is mostly doing this interview.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:05.800)
His wife, Kathy.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:06.800)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:07.800)
And so she corrects Alex that...
Unknown Speaker (01:30:08.800)
How old is Gombos?
Unknown Speaker (01:30:09.800)
Mmm...
Unknown Speaker (01:30:10.800)
Didn't he say he was in Vietnam?
Unknown Speaker (01:30:12.359)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:13.359)
So that should give you some sense.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:14.359)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:15.359)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:16.359)
So an old man stole a chick.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:17.359)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:18.359)
Everything you said is the absolute truth with the exception that the store was closed.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:26.000)
There wasn't anyone around when Nick picked it up.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:28.720)
It was 10 o'clock at night.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:30.000)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:31.000)
I got three different articles here.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:32.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:33.000)
And I know the news gets up wrong a lot.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:34.000)
10 o'clock at night.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:35.000)
So I'm trying to go off the newspaper.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:36.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:37.000)
And my wife talked to you, setting you up for the show early this morning, but explain
Unknown Speaker (01:30:41.279)
to me then what happened.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:42.600)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:43.600)
So he was coming home from Grants Pass, approximately 10 o'clock at night.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:48.319)
He stopped and, as you said, picked up his weekly nickel at Ray's Market, and he found...
Unknown Speaker (01:30:53.880)
He saw a chicken underneath some magazines, and he also saw a box.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:01.199)
Like sleeping under it?
Unknown Speaker (01:31:02.439)
Like...
Unknown Speaker (01:31:03.439)
The first time he watched that was when someone left a chicken in her hens and her chick,
Unknown Speaker (01:31:08.319)
and people picked up the baby chicks and left the hen.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:11.000)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:12.000)
That was what he first thought.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:13.000)
So he went around to see if there were any baby chicks around, and he didn't find any.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:16.760)
So he put the hen in the box and brought it home.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:20.319)
There was no one around to ask if the chicken belonged to anybody.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:25.000)
Everything was closed up.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:26.000)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:27.000)
I'm trying to dig out the quote out of one of these stories.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:28.279)
It says that your husband did, though, at some time talked to employees, and they said
Unknown Speaker (01:31:32.239)
it was fine.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:33.239)
I phoned the following morning after finding out from the neighbors this chicken looked
Unknown Speaker (01:31:39.640)
similar to one she had seen down at Ray's Market.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:43.079)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:44.079)
So I immediately phoned the market and said that we had the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:46.600)
I feel like this story shouldn't go further.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:49.279)
Okay?
Unknown Speaker (01:31:50.279)
And the lady, or the gentleman that I talked to, it was a long conversation, but at some
Unknown Speaker (01:31:58.079)
point it was...
Unknown Speaker (01:31:59.079)
How?
Unknown Speaker (01:32:00.079)
We have your chicken!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:01.079)
We should bring the box back.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:02.079)
Come get your chicken!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:03.079)
It should be a short conversation!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:04.079)
We should go ahead and keep the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:05.079)
No, it's a...
Unknown Speaker (01:32:06.079)
Go ahead and keep it.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:07.079)
What?
Unknown Speaker (01:32:08.079)
Go ahead and keep the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:09.079)
You wouldn't do it!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:10.079)
Bring the box back.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:11.079)
Keep the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:12.079)
I don't give a shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:13.079)
I don't think that happened.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:14.079)
I don't think that even slightly happened!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:15.079)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:16.079)
What are you talking about?
Unknown Speaker (01:32:17.560)
Keep the chicken!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:18.560)
I could assume, if she wasn't saying it was a long conversation and that this was the
Unknown Speaker (01:32:24.159)
result of it, or the end result of it, I could see them calling and some low-level employee
Unknown Speaker (01:32:29.760)
who didn't know anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:31.479)
But it's a small grocery store.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:32.920)
I mean, get the fuck out of here.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:33.920)
It would have to be a small staff, probably.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:35.819)
If it was a long conversation, the conversation was, we're keeping the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:39.880)
And then it ended with, sure, keep the chicken!
Unknown Speaker (01:32:42.800)
And see, I don't think that they should have this chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:45.560)
I don't think they should have the chicken either.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:46.880)
And part of the reason is this next clip, where Kathy is throwing a little shade at
Unknown Speaker (01:32:50.960)
the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:51.960)
Oh, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:52.960)
Oh, God.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:53.960)
This chicken was not a town celebrity, as it's been reported the chicken had only been
Unknown Speaker (01:32:57.899)
there for three weeks, and no one owns it, and no one even knows where it came from.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:02.600)
That's the funny thing, in one article, they say it's a celebrity, and they own it.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:06.039)
In the other articles, they say it's not owned.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:07.920)
They can't trust the media.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:09.720)
Yeah, definitely not owned, and it only showed up approximately three weeks ago.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:13.600)
Okay, well, accelerate through this for us.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:16.239)
Maybe it was a big three weeks.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:17.840)
Wait, so now what's going on?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:20.399)
How is this story not over?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:22.600)
So listen to me.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:23.600)
If this chicken wasn't a publicly known figure, how was her friend able to identify it on
Unknown Speaker (01:33:29.359)
site?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:30.359)
It does seem suspicious.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:31.359)
That she called the store the next day after Nick stole the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:35.600)
Seems suspicious.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:36.600)
It doesn't track.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:37.600)
Maybe she was just saying that it wasn't a big celebrity, it was like a town D celebrity,
Unknown Speaker (01:33:42.000)
you know?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:43.000)
It wasn't the town links.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:45.359)
That thing is fucking riding high.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:47.319)
What's the ceiling for a chicken?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:50.159)
Mike the headless chicken was one of the highest selling.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:53.319)
That's different.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:54.319)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:55.319)
Also, in the article that Alex is using as a source for the Mail Tribune, Kathy is quoted
Unknown Speaker (01:33:58.359)
as saying she and her husband, quote, were not regular shoppers at the store as a way
Unknown Speaker (01:34:02.439)
of claiming ignorance that the chicken that they'd taken was the store's mascot.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:05.880)
Why did you steal this chicken?
Unknown Speaker (01:34:08.119)
She admits unfamiliarity with Ray's as a store, and now here she is asserting that the chicken
Unknown Speaker (01:34:13.119)
wasn't a local favorite.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:14.680)
I...
Unknown Speaker (01:34:15.680)
Curious.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:16.680)
It's very curious.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:17.680)
I don't understand why this man stole this chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:20.960)
I really don't understand why she is defending stealing the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:24.800)
I am willing to accept the possibility that he took the chicken in good faith as he was
Unknown Speaker (01:34:31.960)
concerned about its well-being.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:33.520)
That's fine.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:34.520)
I don't believe that every action taken after that point...
Unknown Speaker (01:34:38.319)
It's all a problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:39.319)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:40.319)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:41.319)
It's almost like they were like, oh fuck, we're in over our head.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:43.600)
Yeah, it feels exactly like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:46.520)
It feels exactly like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:48.359)
Instead of just give the chicken back and everything will be fine.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:51.000)
They feel, yeah, it feels like they're trying to get away with the chicken for some reason.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:55.520)
It's like you could just give the chicken back.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:57.359)
Like they accidentally killed someone and they're engaged in a cover-up or something.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:00.840)
Yes!
Unknown Speaker (01:35:01.840)
Yes!
Unknown Speaker (01:35:02.840)
It's ridiculous.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:03.840)
You took a chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:04.840)
Just give the chicken back!
Unknown Speaker (01:35:05.840)
Nobody's even a problem!
Unknown Speaker (01:35:06.840)
Yeah, oh man.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:07.840)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:08.840)
So I think that also there's an issue that these people might be a little bit delusional.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:11.640)
That's possible.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:12.640)
Deputy Tripp came back and said that my husband was going to be arrested on felony chicken
Unknown Speaker (01:35:17.760)
charges.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:18.760)
Felony, felony, felony, felony.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:21.319)
Felony chicken charges?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:22.319)
Felony chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:23.319)
Now felonies, I think $2,000 in Texas.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:26.880)
What is it there?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:27.880)
I didn't know this chicken was worth thousands of dollars.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:29.319)
No, no, of course not.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:30.319)
It's not.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:31.319)
No, it wasn't.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:32.319)
He outright lied to us.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:33.319)
By the way, possession is nine-tenths of the law.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:34.319)
Well, we're going to get it back.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:35.319)
Chicken law.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:36.319)
I think eventually.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:37.319)
Mondays on Fox.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:38.319)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:39.319)
They think they're going to get the chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:40.640)
They're going to get the chicken back.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:42.640)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:43.640)
How?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:44.640)
Using what laws?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:45.640)
Well, let's see, there is one interesting wrinkle to this story and that is in the aftermath
Unknown Speaker (01:35:53.319)
of them stealing the chicken and this becoming a big public to do.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:57.479)
I can't believe that.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:58.479)
There was the local animal folks chimed in that it was like, this is not sanitary or
Unknown Speaker (01:36:06.720)
safe thing to have a chicken as a mascot.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:09.239)
Obviously.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:10.239)
And so there is maybe a tiny piece of her brain that's like, you know, maybe you can't
Unknown Speaker (01:36:13.939)
go back there.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:14.939)
Maybe it'll come with us.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:15.939)
Oh my God.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:16.939)
But no, it said Nick went to jail for a little bit.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:20.399)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:21.399)
I mean.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:22.399)
Which would not have happened if you just give the chicken back.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:24.399)
Just give the chicken back.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:25.399)
I don't understand.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:26.399)
See, I just, that's the thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:28.359)
Like I don't understand the like saving something and then I, no, I don't get it.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:33.720)
I don't get it.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:34.720)
I just don't get it.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:35.720)
It does.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:36.720)
I understand why you don't get it and that is what makes you think that maybe you weren't
Unknown Speaker (01:36:40.239)
saving it to begin with.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:42.079)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:43.079)
Like in a vacuum, I see what Nick did that night.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:46.680)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:47.680)
As like benevolent possibly.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:48.680)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:49.680)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:50.680)
But all the actions after it make you think, no, he was, he was putting it inside his coat
Unknown Speaker (01:36:54.119)
and running away.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:55.119)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:56.119)
I mean, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:57.119)
Does he have, does he have like experiences as a chicken person?
Unknown Speaker (01:36:59.159)
Does he like, Oh, aha, this is another issue that I'm struggling with.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:05.680)
Is this the first time he's ever even talked to a chicken?
Unknown Speaker (01:37:08.199)
If so, how does he know how the chicken feels about anything?
Unknown Speaker (01:37:12.199)
It's this is what happens when you go back to the past.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:14.960)
I need to know more about this chicken.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:17.520)
There's not much more to know, except you died like a month after this.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:19.960)
Oh God.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:20.960)
Was it like a beautiful, Oh, I didn't, I couldn't find a picture of the bird itself, but I found
Unknown Speaker (01:37:27.199)
a bird like it.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:29.239)
It's a nice looking bird.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:30.239)
It's a nice looking bird.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:31.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:32.239)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:33.239)
Speckled.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:34.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:35.239)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:36.239)
That's the name.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:37.239)
Naturally.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:38.239)
Um, but yeah, this, this real femme fatale.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:39.239)
This is that 2004 shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:42.279)
It is.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:43.279)
This is nuts.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:44.760)
Just mainline it, man.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:46.199)
So just mainline chicken thieves.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:47.800)
They get done with the billboard slash chicken interviews and Alex decides he's going to
Unknown Speaker (01:37:53.159)
go to calls and uh, Oh my Lord.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:56.800)
What a mistake.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:57.800)
Well, I'm not quite sure if this is the right time to talk to you about this, but uh, you
Unknown Speaker (01:38:03.720)
know how the new world order is always hiding things in plain view.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:07.960)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:08.960)
Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:09.960)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:10.960)
Uh, well wife and I watched the movie Willard last night and at the very last thing, uh,
Unknown Speaker (01:38:16.319)
the main character gets thrown into an insane asylum.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:18.920)
The number on his cell door, three dash nine one one in other words, September 11th and
Unknown Speaker (01:38:27.239)
March 11th.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:28.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:29.239)
The globalists love to do that.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:30.319)
Thanks for the call.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:31.319)
Oh shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:32.319)
You get it?
Unknown Speaker (01:38:34.760)
Was Willard the one with the guy who controls rats?
Unknown Speaker (01:38:37.399)
Little rats, Crispin Glover, Crispin Glover did nine 11.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:42.600)
They were in March.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:43.600)
They were predicting predictive program.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:47.760)
Any number you see anywhere means things Willard came out before nine 11.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:52.439)
I'm pretty sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:53.439)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:54.439)
Or maybe he's talking about the original Willard because wasn't it a remake of the original
Unknown Speaker (01:38:59.079)
Willard day?
Unknown Speaker (01:39:00.079)
I'm trying to see.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:01.079)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:02.079)
I think Willard, the other one might have come out even before 11.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:04.720)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:05.720)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:06.720)
It looks like it was 2003 1971 was the original.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:11.760)
So it's either he watched it at 2003 one and went, Oh, they're gloating and they're laughing
Unknown Speaker (01:39:17.560)
at us by putting this guy into a mental asylum for thinking that nine 11 was had job that
Unknown Speaker (01:39:25.079)
happened inside March.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:26.720)
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, no, cause three 11 is another terrorist attack.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:30.239)
But look, here's the situation that we have to wrestle with this.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:33.960)
No, hold on.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:35.340)
Did the band do it?
Unknown Speaker (01:39:36.340)
Wait, hold on.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:37.340)
It can't be predictive programming cause this is a 2004 right?
Unknown Speaker (01:39:40.560)
He is talking about the 2003 2003 movie after the laughing at us or, or, or what in 1971
Unknown Speaker (01:39:50.920)
they predicted nine 11 in this, uh, okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:54.319)
That would be, that would be a twist 30 years in advance.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:58.079)
That would be a solid twist.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:59.199)
I'd take that twist.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:00.199)
If Nicholas cage was playing me in the movie, this would be the point at which you're like,
Unknown Speaker (01:40:04.479)
that's why we hired Nicholas.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:05.479)
Predictive programming doesn't go that far.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:08.000)
That's fair.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:09.000)
Also.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:10.000)
This is a, not the time.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:11.000)
No, I don't know if this is the time to bring this up.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:14.359)
You just had some pretty heavy chicken stuff going on.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:18.039)
So we have one last clip and this is a, we get back to Canada getting lured into world
Unknown Speaker (01:40:21.760)
war two.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:22.760)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:23.760)
So there's a little pay house.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:24.760)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:25.760)
I mean these are the real news articles.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:26.760)
This is the real stuff that's going on.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:29.359)
Then there's this article out of the Edmond journal out of Canada, lighthouse attack was
Unknown Speaker (01:40:35.680)
staged by us to trick Canada into war.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:40.880)
And they go to the evidence of the us attacking the lighthouse to blame it on Japan or Germany.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:46.659)
And that was the pretext to get them into the war.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:50.399)
There's that article, just another example of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:52.600)
Oh, there's so much of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:54.159)
So this is ridiculous for a number of reasons.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:56.199)
First being that the shelling of Estevan point lighthouse happened in 1942 and Canada entered
Unknown Speaker (01:41:01.600)
world war two in 1939.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:03.000)
So they're already in, they were, they were a little behind America and this is one of
Unknown Speaker (01:41:07.520)
the situations where Alex doesn't understand the conspiracy theories he's covering because
Unknown Speaker (01:41:11.359)
most of his workflow is just skimming headlines on kooky news aggregator sites.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:15.680)
The conspiracy here is that the attack was a false flag, not to get Canada into world
Unknown Speaker (01:41:19.659)
war two, but to make the public support a draft.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:22.840)
Alex makes a further problem by saying that the attack was fake to blame Japan or Germany,
Unknown Speaker (01:41:27.560)
where if he had any familiarity with the story at all, he would know that it was just Japan.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:32.140)
The attack was blamed on Japan because they did it.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:34.720)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:35.720)
Oh, so they did do it.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:36.720)
They did.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:37.720)
Japan did do the attack.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:38.720)
This is a great encapsulation of most conspiracy theories where there's basically zero evidence
Unknown Speaker (01:41:43.560)
of something, but you found a potential motive for a certain act to have been carried out.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:47.720)
So you skip over the lack of evidence and you just arrive at the conspiracy conclusion.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:52.760)
Japan was unpopular in Canada, but after this attack on the lighthouse, people were more
Unknown Speaker (01:41:56.560)
open to it.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:57.880)
Thus, it must have been a false flag in order to sway the public towards conscription.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:02.159)
Probably.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:03.159)
Unfortunately for someone like Alex, imagining a motive isn't the same thing as solving a
Unknown Speaker (01:42:06.560)
case and in this case, there's tons of evidence that Japan did the attack.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:11.180)
For one, there are pieces of shells that hit the lighthouse that have been found and are
Unknown Speaker (01:42:14.279)
on display publicly and they're Japanese.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:17.079)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:18.079)
Well, that's probably pretty high evidence.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:19.840)
Second, Japanese military documents have been discovered that prove that two submarines,
Unknown Speaker (01:42:23.920)
the I-25 and I-26, were responsible for the attack as well as one on the American Fort
Unknown Speaker (01:42:29.399)
Stevens in Oregon.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:30.760)
They were all on the west coast.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:33.399)
They bombed that shit too.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:35.319)
Fellas, go back.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:36.680)
Go back home.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:37.680)
You're a little bit far.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:38.680)
A little bit far.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:39.680)
So the reason that there's a conspiracy here at all is because of this imagined motive
Unknown Speaker (01:42:44.840)
and a single entry in the then light keeper's notes, which said that the attack was carried
Unknown Speaker (01:42:49.239)
out by warships when in reality it had been done by submarines.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:52.319)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:53.319)
People who want to see a conspiracy insist that the light keeper must have been right,
Unknown Speaker (01:42:56.720)
whereas the more likely explanation was offered by Canadian naval historians Michael Whitby
Unknown Speaker (01:43:01.520)
and Bill Rawling in an article in the Ottawa Citizen.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:04.600)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:05.600)
Quote, the eyewitness testimony cited to support the conspiracy theory in the article is also
Unknown Speaker (01:43:09.279)
flawed.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:10.279)
Rather than coolly watching the attack, the lighthouse keeper ran down the stairs of a
Unknown Speaker (01:43:14.800)
425 foot structure, found his wife to warn her to take cover, and then ran all the way
Unknown Speaker (01:43:19.680)
back up the stairs to douse the light.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:22.079)
Presumably this took some time and effort and impaired his ability to observe the relatively
Unknown Speaker (01:43:25.979)
short attack.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:27.399)
As for identifying warship types, trained military personnel consistently make errors
Unknown Speaker (01:43:31.880)
along the lines of aircraft attacking whales that they take to be submarines.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:35.680)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:36.680)
But again, Alex needs to come up with sneaky explanations for how everyone got tricked
Unknown Speaker (01:43:40.899)
into fighting the Nazis.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:41.899)
But don't worry.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:42.899)
He's not a fan.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:43.899)
He's not a fan of the Nazis.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:44.899)
Just everyone should have been minding their own business and not gotten sucked into or
Unknown Speaker (01:43:48.920)
tricked into fighting World War II.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:50.920)
It's very weird.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:51.920)
I do love a good old fashioned, ah, but we have one guy's notes.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:58.039)
Those are always good.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:59.359)
Also, I mean, come on, man.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:02.380)
It's a warship.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:03.380)
It's a ship that makes war.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:04.880)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:05.880)
It could be any ship.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:07.319)
It could be an undership.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:08.560)
It could be an overship.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:09.560)
No, apparently this guy-
Unknown Speaker (01:44:10.560)
It was shooting bombs at me!
Unknown Speaker (01:44:12.720)
Apparently this guy, in addition to his note, he had said other times, it was a quote.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:19.279)
But you can't take that as super credible, given the circumstances of-
Unknown Speaker (01:44:24.000)
I'm under attack, come on, man!
Unknown Speaker (01:44:27.479)
Under attack, running up and down the lighthouse.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:29.800)
Oh, that's so stupid.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:31.399)
The then technology he would have had to be able to determine what it was.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:35.960)
He goes down, he warns his wife, and then suddenly it stops.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:40.640)
It hits him.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:41.640)
I got to turn the light off, and then runs all the way back up.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:47.159)
You feel for the guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:48.159)
Heartbreaking.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:49.159)
Feel for him.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:50.159)
That is a comical moment.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:51.159)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:52.159)
So, Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:53.159)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:54.159)
We've reached the end of this episode.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:55.159)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:56.159)
I want to go back.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:57.159)
I mean, the past.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:58.159)
Take me back.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:59.159)
The past.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:01.880)
Such limited stakes.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:05.439)
You got skeletons with hats.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:07.159)
Oh, those hats!
Unknown Speaker (01:45:08.159)
You got people stealing chickens.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:09.479)
I almost forgot how scary the skeletons with fezzes are.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:12.680)
You got an angry divorcee putting up signs.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:16.000)
It's just everything is kind of- I don't know if this is the right way to put it, but this
Unknown Speaker (01:45:21.039)
is fucking Americana.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:23.760)
It's very News of the World-y.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:25.199)
It is very much like, this is what I'm here for.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:27.920)
I'm in the checkout line, I'm strolling- oh, look at this!
Unknown Speaker (01:45:32.000)
Well, that's insane.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:33.000)
A man stole a chicken?
Unknown Speaker (01:45:34.520)
Alright, I'll put that back.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:36.460)
Thank you very much, and I'm on my day.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:37.840)
I love it.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:38.840)
I love it.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:39.840)
Alex turns it into a show.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:40.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:41.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:42.840)
So, I look forward to going to the past more, because this is great.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:47.279)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:48.279)
Yeah, the worse the present gets, I think we might-
Unknown Speaker (01:45:50.439)
You just find these- Is it technically The Matrix if we just choose
Unknown Speaker (01:45:53.920)
to only cover the past as if we lived in it?
Unknown Speaker (01:45:58.319)
We need to make some- podcasting didn't exist in 2004.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:02.079)
Sure, but I mean, that's just radio that we put into a bottle.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:05.119)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:06.119)
And then throw into the ocean.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:07.119)
That's the same difference.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:08.119)
I really, I really think you're being- bending the rules of The Matrix.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:12.039)
Radio- fair enough.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:13.560)
But to be fair, there's no spoon.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:16.000)
There is no spoon.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:18.439)
So anyway, we'll be back.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:19.439)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:20.439)
But until then, we have a website.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:21.439)
Indeed we do, it's knowledgeright.com.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:22.439)
Yep, we're also on Blue Sky.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:23.439)
We are on Blue Sky, it's knowledgeright.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:24.439)
Yep, we'll be back.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:25.439)
But until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX Clark, pour one out for my boy Speckles.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:29.920)
Woo yeah, woo yeah, woo!
Unknown Speaker (01:46:33.880)
And now, here comes the sex robots.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:36.119)
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air, thanks for holding.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:38.039)
Hello Alex, I'm a first time caller, I'm a huge fan, I love your work.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:43.199)
I love you.
