Unknown Speaker (00:00:00.000)
Hey everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight, I'm Dan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:03.000)
The voice you will hear shortly is my co-host and dear friend, Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:08.000)
This is our final, our fifth and final installment in our ongoing coverage of Alex Jones' very, very stupid
Unknown Speaker (00:00:15.000)
sophomoric, amateurish, I could come up with a number of other
Unknown Speaker (00:00:19.000)
not very complimentary words to describe it, documentary.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:23.000)
It's called Endgame and it sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:26.000)
This is the end, this is the final chunk, and you may note that at this point Jordan and I are a little buzzed.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:33.000)
We're a little fed up with the bullshit, just tired.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:38.000)
There's an endurance aspect that comes into this when you're seven hours into stopping and starting a very bad documentary
Unknown Speaker (00:00:45.000)
to point out, oh this isn't true, also this isn't true.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:49.000)
It weighs on you, and you may sense that a little bit here in this final installment.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:55.000)
But there's a lot of good stuff to look forward to. There's a couple of my favorite things, certainly, that we run into.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:02.000)
And without giving anything away, the final shot of this documentary is in hindsight an incredibly funny piece of history.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:11.000)
Where Alex Jones, I don't want to give it away.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:14.000)
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this thrilling conclusion to our coverage of Alex Jones and Endgame.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:23.000)
Oh, also, I'm not going to come back at the end of the episode because the episode has a natural end.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:29.000)
I don't know if we give any plugs at the end, so you can check us out at knowledgefight.com, knowledge underscore fight on Twitter.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:35.000)
We're on Facebook, you can find us, we have a special private group called Go Home and Tell Your Mother You're Brilliant.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:41.000)
You can join up and hang out and just mix it up with the other policy wonks out there.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:48.000)
It's on Facebook. We're on iTunes.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:50.000)
Anyway, thank you all so much. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:54.000)
And I apologize that there's still two more hours left of this for you to listen to.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:58.000)
Alright, enjoy.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:00.000)
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air, thanks for holding.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:04.000)
Hello Alex, I'm a first time caller, I'm a huge fan, I love your work.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:07.000)
I love you.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:08.000)
So he's kind of worried about the ecosystem more than he is about humanity.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:12.000)
Especially about how your feelings are.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:15.000)
Fuck your feelings. Who am I? Ben Shapiro. Fuck your feelings. Fuck your feelings, bro. I'm Jersey Shore Ben Shapiro.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:22.000)
How you doing? Are you going alright?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:24.000)
Doing good.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:28.000)
We're on hour nine here, the Money Bob, I don't even know.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:32.000)
Just trying to make him look crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:33.000)
China was able to turn the corner and become the leading world super power.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:36.000)
We got a quote.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:37.000)
Because they have a police state.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:38.000)
We got a quote, watch.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:40.000)
Just another Eric Bianca quote.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:42.000)
So he probably said it, but who gives a shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:45.000)
That's also slightly out of context.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:46.000)
The eugenics movement has now shaken off much of its Nazi baggage.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:50.000)
And is using legitimate concern about the environment.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:54.000)
Pretty sure everybody still thinks Nazi when you hear eugenics.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:57.000)
Most people don't like eugenics.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:00.000)
Everyone wants to breathe clean air and have good water.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:03.000)
The controllers of the environmental movement have done nothing but co-op people's concerns.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:08.000)
And parlay it into support for global policies that further destabilize the third world.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:14.000)
And create untold misery.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:20.000)
Okay, okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:21.000)
Phony environmental and conservation groups are now the biggest private landowners in the world.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:26.000)
He flashes up on screen here, the Sierra Club and the Nature Conservancy.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:32.000)
While he's saying that phony conservation groups are the largest private landowners in the world.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:37.000)
Funny. Funny.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:39.000)
Because that's not true.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:41.000)
John Malone, the owner of Charter Communications, owns 2.2 million acres coming in at number one.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:46.000)
In terms of the private landowners in the United States.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:50.000)
That's the number one.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:52.000)
Number one.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:53.000)
In private landowners.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:55.000)
Is the guy from Charter.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:56.000)
Charter Communications.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:57.000)
Like I needed another reason to want the guy from Charter to die.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:01.000)
My boy Ted Turner coming in at number two with 2.1 billion acres.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:05.000)
What is he doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:06.000)
He has a lot of land.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:07.000)
He has a lot of bison.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:08.000)
He needs that land.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:09.000)
Why is it that it's cable companies?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:11.000)
It's very weird.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:12.000)
Well Ted Turner got kicked out of that in the 90s.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:14.000)
Still.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:15.000)
Still Turner.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:16.000)
These conservation groups that are listed aren't even in the top hundred of the private.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:20.000)
Oh yeah?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:21.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:22.000)
Oh who'd I guess?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:23.000)
Are you saying it's billionaires?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:24.000)
You're saying it's all billionaires?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:25.000)
When you look at the land available in the United States there's approximately 1.9 billion
Unknown Speaker (00:04:29.000)
acres of usable land in the lower 48 states.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:32.000)
Under that 139 million of those acres are considered to be developed urban or rural
Unknown Speaker (00:04:36.000)
residential land.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:38.000)
349 million acres are used for cropland.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:41.000)
747 million acres are considered forests.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:44.000)
788 million are range or pasture land where animals can graze.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:49.000)
Alex cites an article here that asserts that Nature Conservancy there manages 7 million
Unknown Speaker (00:04:55.000)
preserved acres and owns 2 million.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:58.000)
But that does not tell the whole story.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:00.000)
For instance, 15,500 of the acres that they own are part of Palmaia Atoll, a series of
Unknown Speaker (00:05:08.000)
acres and lagoons 1,000 miles south of Hawaii.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:11.000)
It doesn't really seem like what he's talking about in terms of controlling America.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:16.000)
You own something out in the water.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:18.000)
You own reef land that you're trying to save.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:20.000)
Yeah it's in the middle of nowhere.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:21.000)
It's an atoll.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:22.000)
Oh no.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:23.000)
Atolls are pretty sweet.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:24.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:25.000)
I would want to control that atoll.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:26.000)
It doesn't really seem like what he's talking about.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:28.000)
But also they bought this thing called the Baca Ranch.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:34.000)
100,000 of the acres that they own are that and they just bought that to finish up the
Unknown Speaker (00:05:40.000)
land that was required for the Great Sand Dunes National Park.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:43.000)
Plus they have offices in 30 different countries so there's no reason to think that all the
Unknown Speaker (00:05:47.000)
land that they own or conserve are in the United States.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:52.000)
What there really is reason to think is that they are in the job of conserving land.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:57.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:58.000)
That's kind of what they do.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:59.000)
I'm sorry.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:00.000)
I think I said that John Malone and Ted Turner had billions of acres.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:03.000)
They're in the millions.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:04.000)
I apologize.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:05.000)
I had to catch myself there.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:07.000)
So when you look at the...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:08.000)
It freaked me out for a second when you started talking about the millions and then I was
Unknown Speaker (00:06:11.000)
like they have billions of acres?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:13.000)
Millions.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:14.000)
It's still a fucking ton.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:15.000)
What the shit?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:16.000)
It's still way too much.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:17.000)
No it's a shit ton but it's scarier if it's billions.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:19.000)
So now when you...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:20.000)
I don't even know how big an acre is let alone how big a billion of them is.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:23.000)
Acres about yay.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:24.000)
About yay?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:25.000)
About yay.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:26.000)
About yay.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:27.000)
So when you look at the question...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:29.000)
That's my favorite response to Eddie.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:31.000)
How big is that?
Unknown Speaker (00:06:32.000)
About yay.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:33.000)
When you take it outside of America and you go into private landowners in the world...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:38.000)
Oh yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:39.000)
No we're fucked.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:40.000)
It becomes a really interesting thing because Alex is even more wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:44.000)
The largest...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:45.000)
Saudi Arabia is owned by a guy named Kevin.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:47.000)
King Abdullah.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:48.000)
King Kevin.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:49.000)
He comes in at number two with 547 million acres that he owns.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:53.000)
That's crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:54.000)
Number one, the Queen of England coming in at 6.6 billion acres.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:59.000)
Way far above everybody else.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:01.000)
Are we sure that's still okay?
Unknown Speaker (00:07:03.000)
Because the monarch of England retains the royal title over the entire British Commonwealth.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:08.000)
So she technically owns the entirety of all British lands.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:12.000)
I still feel like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:13.000)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:14.000)
It's the same thing with talking about Edward VIII technically being the king of the Roman...
Unknown Speaker (00:07:19.000)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:20.000)
Or the British church.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:21.000)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:22.000)
Britain.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:23.000)
That's what you're doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:07:24.000)
Shape it up with his formalities.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:25.000)
I get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:26.000)
I totally get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:27.000)
You gotta get her name off that shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:29.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:30.000)
Get it off the lease.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:31.000)
Just get it off the...
Unknown Speaker (00:07:33.000)
Don't leave it on there.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:34.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:35.000)
Yeah, we all know it's symbolic.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:36.000)
We all know that now, but there's gonna be a time where maybe people don't.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:40.000)
Get her name off the lease.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:41.000)
Mm-hmm.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:42.000)
The Pope is number three.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:43.000)
What if she's laid on her bills?
Unknown Speaker (00:07:45.000)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:46.000)
She might default.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:47.000)
The Pope is number three because he technically owns all land owned by the Catholic church.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:50.000)
God damn it!
Unknown Speaker (00:07:51.000)
Plus Vatican City.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:52.000)
So he comes in at about 177 million acres worldwide.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:56.000)
Past that, you just have a list of kings who have different countries that they own the
Unknown Speaker (00:07:59.699)
entirety of.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:00.699)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:01.699)
And then you think about authoritarian countries like Russia and China, technically the heads
Unknown Speaker (00:08:05.079)
of state own all of the land that's there.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:08.000)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:09.000)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:10.000)
So all this stuff, these people...
Unknown Speaker (00:08:11.000)
So when you start to look at...
Unknown Speaker (00:08:12.000)
This doesn't work for America.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:13.680)
It doesn't work globally.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:15.319)
He's saying nothing and he can't prove any of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:17.879)
But you really see when you start to talk about how much land these individual people
Unknown Speaker (00:08:24.720)
own and how silly it is for them to own that land, you start to realize, well, people can't
Unknown Speaker (00:08:30.720)
really own land.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:32.120)
Like who owns land?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:34.120)
Like in Russia.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:36.240)
In Russia.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:37.240)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:38.240)
You're Putin.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:39.240)
You own all of Russia.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:40.240)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:41.240)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:42.240)
It's not your land.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:43.240)
It's people's land.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:44.240)
What are you doing with it?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:45.240)
It's people's land.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:46.240)
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:47.240)
I'm in England.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:48.240)
Take the queen off the lease.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:49.240)
Do it.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:50.240)
And Canada, take her off the money.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:51.799)
Canada, leave her on the money.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:53.080)
She's cute there.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:54.080)
She actually technically owns all of Canada too.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:56.519)
What?
Unknown Speaker (00:08:57.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:58.519)
That can't be real.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:59.519)
That is.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:00.519)
They lobby government to take property away from local populations, only to develop it
Unknown Speaker (00:09:05.720)
themselves later.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:07.120)
That's not true.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:08.480)
When the US military dumps millions of gallons of nerve gas on the east coast of the US,
Unknown Speaker (00:09:14.279)
they don't say a word.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:16.120)
Do they?
Unknown Speaker (00:09:17.120)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:18.120)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:19.120)
Apparently they put it on the map.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:20.120)
On the map.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:21.120)
We're not worried about chimeras.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:22.120)
How did we get to chimeras?
Unknown Speaker (00:09:27.000)
Pretty quick, huh?
Unknown Speaker (00:09:28.080)
How did we get to chimeras?
Unknown Speaker (00:09:29.440)
We were just at women are allowed to vote.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:32.320)
He's pissed off that these fake conservation groups aren't mad about chimeras being released
Unknown Speaker (00:09:40.139)
into the wild.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:41.919)
He has legitimately no citation for chimeras being released into the wild.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:48.799)
Even for our show, with our history of harsh turds, to go from, and let me, hold on, let
Unknown Speaker (00:09:55.960)
me start at the beginning.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:57.360)
This is about Bilderberg?
Unknown Speaker (00:09:59.240)
At one point.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:00.240)
Then it got into about Texas roads.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:02.480)
No, no, because first it was about World War II, and then about Bilderberg.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:07.200)
No, but Bilderberg caused World War II.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:09.399)
Yeah, I guess so, and then roads.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:11.759)
And then roads.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:12.759)
Then China.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:13.759)
And then China.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:14.759)
Then...
Unknown Speaker (00:10:15.759)
Then population control.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:16.759)
And then...
Unknown Speaker (00:10:17.759)
Then I got mad.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:18.759)
Harsh turd into spider goats are real.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:21.759)
Well, they are.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:23.600)
I get that.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:24.600)
In a certain sense.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:25.600)
I get that.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:26.600)
I get the sense within which they are real, but all I'm saying is I felt like we spent
Unknown Speaker (00:10:30.320)
the good first hour and 25 minutes on the first two, Bilderberg and creepy roads.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:35.919)
Don't worry.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:36.919)
And now we're near it.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:39.440)
We're headed around the final corner.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:41.080)
We are.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:42.080)
We're right near the edge.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:43.080)
We're so close to home.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:44.080)
We're right there, and then all of a sudden he's like, yeah, and these conservationist
Unknown Speaker (00:10:47.039)
groups don't even care about chimeras.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:49.039)
Being released into the wild, which I can't prove.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:51.000)
You can't just turn like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:52.960)
Oh, you can't.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:53.960)
Isn't your documentary about something?
Unknown Speaker (00:10:56.120)
I want to tell you something, Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:57.639)
You're not taking into account is that Alex Jones is a fucking pro, and he's going to
Unknown Speaker (00:11:01.240)
weave...
Unknown Speaker (00:11:02.240)
He's going...
Unknown Speaker (00:11:03.240)
He's going to weave this all together.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:06.360)
Do you ever see...
Unknown Speaker (00:11:07.360)
This is going to come together in the end.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:08.679)
Do you ever see like a standup comedy set where you're like, what the fuck is this guy
Unknown Speaker (00:11:11.360)
talking about?
Unknown Speaker (00:11:12.360)
And then 10 minutes later, you're like, this guy is brilliant.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:14.360)
He weaved it all together.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:15.679)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:16.679)
That's what he's about to...
Unknown Speaker (00:11:17.679)
He's not going to do that.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:18.679)
I feel like that's not going to happen.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:19.679)
He's not going to do that.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:20.679)
Because I've seen other people try to do that far more often and fail miserably.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:25.899)
The end of this is so fucking funny to me.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:29.639)
I keep building it up.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:30.639)
It's going to be a disappointment, but I love the end of this documentary.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:33.559)
Well, by the speed at which we're going, we're going to see that end in two hours.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:37.399)
About two weeks.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:38.399)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:39.399)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:40.399)
Vandalizing the very genetic code of the planet and large environmental organizations do nothing.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:49.679)
The corporate elite of the planet intensified their push for a global taxation system with
Unknown Speaker (00:11:55.679)
a year long buildup to the live earth hysteria held on July 7th, 2007.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:01.360)
2007.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:02.360)
Hell yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:03.360)
2007.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:04.360)
The world leaders announced that saving the earth was the new organizing principle for
Unknown Speaker (00:12:09.360)
humanity and hailed it as the planet's new religion.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:13.679)
First of all, worshiping the planet or nature is not a new religion in any way.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:19.320)
It goes back probably-
Unknown Speaker (00:12:20.320)
No, it's the newest.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:21.320)
Probably is the oldest.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:22.799)
So old, it's new.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:23.799)
Also, I'll never forget how disappointed I was when I was sitting in Greece watching
Unknown Speaker (00:12:28.419)
this live earth concert in the middle of Athens and I was like, I just got done rocking to
Unknown Speaker (00:12:33.879)
somebody, I don't know who it was, and UB40 comes out and I'm like, what?
Unknown Speaker (00:12:40.679)
UB40-
Unknown Speaker (00:12:41.679)
Wait, what?
Unknown Speaker (00:12:42.679)
UB40.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:43.679)
UB40.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:44.679)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:45.679)
Of course they opened with red, red wine.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:46.679)
I was like, fuck this.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:47.679)
UB40 came out.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:48.679)
Fuck this.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:49.679)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:50.679)
And then when Metallica came out, I forgot to mention this.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:52.799)
Well, they were immediately followed by a, shit, what's their, shit, the ones who did
Unknown Speaker (00:12:57.639)
on Blue Da Ba Dee Da Ba Die?
Unknown Speaker (00:12:59.759)
Eiffel 65?
Unknown Speaker (00:13:00.759)
Yay.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:01.759)
Oh yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:02.759)
I was like, God damn it, that would have been so much better.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:04.759)
I'm so disappointed in my reference skills right now.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:08.120)
So Metallica came out-
Unknown Speaker (00:13:09.120)
Minus five points.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:10.120)
You're right.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:11.120)
I agree.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:12.120)
Metallica came out and James Hetfield, the lead singer, comes out and before he sings
Unknown Speaker (00:13:15.600)
a fucking song, he just-
Unknown Speaker (00:13:17.080)
Wait, UB40 is still on stage?
Unknown Speaker (00:13:18.720)
No, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:19.720)
This is, cause it went to another country.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:20.720)
It was in a bunch of countries and so UB40 did like three songs, just too many for UB40.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:28.080)
Tools Rush In, Red Red Wine, That Might Be It.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:33.440)
And then they went to-
Unknown Speaker (00:13:34.440)
Those are the three songs I know of theirs.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:36.159)
I don't know if this is the order of it, but then the other thing I remember is Metallica
Unknown Speaker (00:13:40.879)
and Metallica gets on and before they can even play a note or do their song, James Hetfield
Unknown Speaker (00:13:46.679)
is just like, make some noise if you give a shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:50.039)
I always thought that was so like-
Unknown Speaker (00:13:53.799)
Your heart's in the right place Hetfield.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:55.159)
It's so fake rebellious.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:56.759)
Your heart is in the right place.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:58.320)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:59.320)
It was nice.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:00.320)
I think.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:01.320)
The only other thing I remember-
Unknown Speaker (00:14:02.320)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:03.320)
This was during the whole Napster situation, so I don't-
Unknown Speaker (00:14:04.320)
No, it was after that.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:05.320)
Limited.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:06.320)
It's 2007.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:07.320)
Oh, I don't even remember.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:08.320)
I also remember AFI had a disappointing set.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:12.000)
That's all I remember.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:13.000)
AFI is a disappointing set.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:14.879)
But anyway, the idea-
Unknown Speaker (00:14:15.879)
Unless you're talking about the American Film Institute.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:19.159)
A fire inside, I believe is what it stands for.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:22.559)
Anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:23.559)
Emo shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:24.559)
Really?
Unknown Speaker (00:14:25.559)
Really?
Unknown Speaker (00:14:26.559)
That's what it stands for?
Unknown Speaker (00:14:27.559)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:28.559)
I'm not a fan of theirs, but I knew some people in junior high, high school.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:31.679)
Guys, give it up.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:32.679)
Anyway, the worship of earth is not new.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:35.480)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:36.480)
They claim that CO2, which plants breathe, was killing the earth, and that we must reduce
Unknown Speaker (00:14:43.840)
the number of children we have to curtail our carbon footprint.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:51.039)
Countries across the world mark the day by passing new carbon tax schemes and raising
Unknown Speaker (00:14:56.700)
taxes on gasoline, natural gas, and electricity.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:03.799)
It is a scientific fact that the sun is the main driver of planetary climate.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:09.399)
That's not a starting point.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:11.240)
No, and it's not a scientific fact.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:14.259)
It's a pretty large consensus that it's greenhouse gases and all that shit that is.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:20.039)
One of the reasons that he believes that there's this carbon tax shit going on and that all
Unknown Speaker (00:15:26.480)
of it is a hoax is because he really misunderstands this... There was an instance where a bunch
Unknown Speaker (00:15:34.360)
of emails got hacked from the climate research unit.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:37.120)
Yeah, I remember that.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:38.879)
And they were all taking-
Unknown Speaker (00:15:39.879)
Everybody who hates climate science.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:42.159)
Climate gate.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:43.159)
Oh, climate gate.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:44.159)
Everything was super taken out of context.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:46.159)
Yeah, of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:47.159)
It was all very benign emails between co-workers.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:50.039)
Because science still says what science says.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:52.039)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:53.039)
Also, do you want to talk about that a little bit so I don't have to read this paragraph?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:01.200)
I feel like I've just been reading fucking paragraphs at you and I feel very guilty.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:04.879)
No, no, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:05.879)
It's fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:06.879)
This was great.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:07.879)
This was great school.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:08.879)
No, if I remember, because I remember my dad and my older brother were all up in this business
Unknown Speaker (00:16:17.919)
about how, oh no, if you read these climate gate emails, it actually shows that they knew
Unknown Speaker (00:16:23.100)
the whole time that we were actually in a cooling period and all of these graphs are
Unknown Speaker (00:16:27.159)
bullshit and it's actually this graph that goes this direction that's a real graph and
Unknown Speaker (00:16:30.720)
the graphs that they've been hiding this whole time are bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:33.399)
And then, of course, six months later everybody forgets about it until you start to talk about
Unknown Speaker (00:16:37.559)
it again in which they're like, oh, you remember climate gate?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:40.200)
That means nothing they ever said was real.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:42.600)
Climate, it's always been the same.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:46.440)
They took a bunch of, it's like the text messages with the FBI guy where it's like, hey, Trump's
Unknown Speaker (00:16:51.860)
a fucking lunatic and they're like, well, that's obvious that everybody was trying to
Unknown Speaker (00:16:54.799)
screw him over.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:55.799)
And it's like, no, Trump's a fucking lunatic.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:58.240)
It's okay to say what is true.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:00.399)
The big email.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:02.399)
The big email, Jordan?
Unknown Speaker (00:17:03.399)
Oh, I don't even want to read.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:04.920)
It was an email from the climate research unit head, Phil Jones, where he said that
Unknown Speaker (00:17:10.039)
he had used, quote, Mike's nature trick to hide the decline.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:13.759)
Hide the decline became a buzzword as if this climate scientist were flippantly talking
Unknown Speaker (00:17:18.440)
to his coworkers about cheating data.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:20.160)
The reality is what he was talking about, he was talking about in terms of hiding the
Unknown Speaker (00:17:24.259)
decline was a reference to something that is a well-known part in the scientific community,
Unknown Speaker (00:17:30.880)
the tree ring divergence problem.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:33.599)
As it turns out for a long ways back where we have data for it, tree ring width runs
Unknown Speaker (00:17:38.359)
pretty consistent paths with observable temperatures.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:42.079)
However, around 1950, something diverged and the data that's gathered from tree ring samples
Unknown Speaker (00:17:47.960)
does not match with the documented temperatures that we know are the case from the times that
Unknown Speaker (00:17:52.640)
we have those tree ring samples.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:54.880)
So we're not entirely sure why that's the case.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:59.000)
Phil was discussing using Mike's nature trick in order to present the data that he had gathered
Unknown Speaker (00:18:03.480)
in a way that is completely consistent with scientific and statistical ethical practices.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:08.400)
Scientists are not sure why the tree ring data started to diverge from observable temperatures,
Unknown Speaker (00:18:12.880)
but they hypothesized that it's due to a yet to be discovered atmospheric variable that
Unknown Speaker (00:18:18.759)
is probably in play but was not before 1950.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:22.640)
Other scientists speculate that it could be due to the sensitivity of trees and maybe
Unknown Speaker (00:18:26.640)
a byproduct of changing seasonality that we are experiencing or increased levels of aerosols
Unknown Speaker (00:18:32.880)
in the air that are also causing global dimming.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:36.279)
Could also be vaccines.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:37.440)
It could be vaccines.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:38.440)
Could be trees and tree vaccines.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:41.440)
Yes, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:42.440)
So the reality is too that the Kochs have invested about $50 million over the last 50
Unknown Speaker (00:18:49.480)
years to spread misinformation and sow doubt about climate change, and that's not even
Unknown Speaker (00:18:53.440)
including what ExxonMobil has spent.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:55.759)
The Carbon Brief found that 9 out of 10 of the most prolific writers who are climate
Unknown Speaker (00:18:59.319)
change deniers have financial ties to ExxonMobil, including 9 out of the top 10 have financial
Unknown Speaker (00:19:07.099)
ties directly to ExxonMobil.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:09.599)
And it seems like you should have to declare that there should be a disclaimer.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:16.119)
Sponsored post, guys.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:17.119)
Sponsored post.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:18.119)
But because they do it through shell companies and stuff like that, it's like, eh, we can
Unknown Speaker (00:19:21.319)
sort of hide it.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:22.319)
Or through think tanks.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:23.319)
Yeah, exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:24.319)
He's not one of the top 10, but Alex's buddy, Lord Monckton, who's his climate change
Unknown Speaker (00:19:29.319)
denier expert, he absolutely has ties to the ExxonMobil money.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:37.039)
He was the chief policy advisor for the Science and Policy Institute, think tank operated
Unknown Speaker (00:19:41.140)
by Frontiers of Freedom Foundation.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:43.400)
For years where data is available, from 2002 to 2007, ExxonMobil gave that organization
Unknown Speaker (00:19:48.119)
$1,037,000.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:52.720)
For what, I imagine?
Unknown Speaker (00:19:54.640)
Probably nothing.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:56.099)
Probably nothing.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:57.099)
Also, Lord Monckton's a crazy lunatic.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:58.960)
Just to support science.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:00.480)
They're just all about science.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:02.200)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:03.200)
Being supported.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:04.200)
ExxonMobil loves...
Unknown Speaker (00:20:05.200)
They just want the science supported, and they hate it whenever science goes unsupported.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:09.839)
And they fucking happen to just only...
Unknown Speaker (00:20:11.200)
And it just so happens that the science that goes unsupported is the science of made-up
Unknown Speaker (00:20:15.559)
bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:16.559)
So they want to make sure that the science of made-up bullshit is supported.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:20.079)
And it just so happens that the made-up bullshit science that they want supported is, of course,
Unknown Speaker (00:20:24.359)
supporting themselves.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:25.359)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:26.359)
It seems crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:27.359)
Also...
Unknown Speaker (00:20:28.359)
But it's just a coincidence, I swear.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:29.880)
The sun, the sun being the main driver of climate change is very much...
Unknown Speaker (00:20:35.180)
It's a scientific fact.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:36.180)
It's very much addressed by climate scientists, if you want to look into any of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:39.000)
They've never heard of the sun, that's why you can't trust them.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:41.759)
So I can't trust them.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:42.759)
They don't even know about the sun.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:44.759)
When I was six, I read 10,000 books about the sun.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:47.319)
They haven't even read one.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:48.319)
They have been slowly increasing thermal output in the last 100 years, causing warming, not
Unknown Speaker (00:20:54.000)
just on Earth, but throughout the solar system.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:01.599)
But the scientific facts, and even the order of the planets, didn't matter to one of the
Unknown Speaker (00:21:06.240)
chief organizers of Live Earth.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:08.519)
Are we getting back to D-Rocks?
Unknown Speaker (00:21:09.519)
David Mayers and Rothschild aired the British arm of the Rothschild fortune when we spoke
Unknown Speaker (00:21:14.200)
to him.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:16.819)
When I called Rothschild on the order of the planets, he just laughed, thinking the audience
Unknown Speaker (00:21:21.819)
wouldn't get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:23.019)
He continued to count on the population's ignorance, and claimed the global warming
Unknown Speaker (00:21:28.079)
lobby has nothing to do with carbon taxes.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:30.039)
This is his big gotcha from the interview that we did with him.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:31.960)
I guess he hadn't spoken with his good personal friend, Al Gore.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:37.559)
Global warming, the time for debate is over.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:39.839)
I think what you have to realize is that being environmentally sensitive and making money
Unknown Speaker (00:21:44.759)
aren't mutually exclusive.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:45.759)
There's a lot of money to be made in addressing this issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:49.759)
But you guys are gobbling up all the world's concern to just simply line your pockets and
Unknown Speaker (00:21:54.680)
make kids read your book in schools and do all this.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:57.400)
It's a business, just like you said, Rothschild.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:59.640)
Do you think I'm making any money out of this?
Unknown Speaker (00:22:03.440)
It's the same thing your great-great-great-grand...
Unknown Speaker (00:22:06.920)
Your money-changing ancestors did.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:09.240)
Why would you leave that in there?
Unknown Speaker (00:22:11.140)
And I'm calling you out, Red Shield.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:12.920)
We know it's a scam.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:15.079)
He didn't even leave the part in that he was trying to beat!
Unknown Speaker (00:22:20.039)
What are you doing?!
Unknown Speaker (00:22:22.039)
No!
Unknown Speaker (00:22:23.039)
I got you a moment was when he said the planet's in the wrong order, not you saying, fuck you
Unknown Speaker (00:22:29.279)
and your money-changing ancestors.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:31.720)
He really did set up the clip wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:33.680)
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:22:34.680)
He set up the clip for him to...
Unknown Speaker (00:22:36.259)
We know, we know what happens, which is what David Rothschild gets the order of the planet
Unknown Speaker (00:22:45.059)
that's wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:46.059)
You and I know that.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:47.059)
Our listeners know that.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:48.319)
He made a mistake.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:49.319)
Now, Alex sets this up to where you're like, oh, he's gonna play the clip, we have to deal
Unknown Speaker (00:22:54.160)
with this bullshit, it was an obvious misspeaking, he didn't even play the clip!
Unknown Speaker (00:22:58.640)
If I were Fallon, I would be like, what?
Unknown Speaker (00:23:00.720)
He didn't play the clip, he just...
Unknown Speaker (00:23:03.079)
You queued up the wrong clip, baby.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:04.480)
He played the clip of him being anti-Semitic instead!
Unknown Speaker (00:23:08.839)
That doesn't seem like an accident.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:09.839)
What are you doing?!
Unknown Speaker (00:23:11.200)
That somehow still doesn't seem like a mistake.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:13.559)
It seems like what he intends to do, it's weird.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:17.480)
He's a nut.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:18.720)
It hurts me.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:20.200)
That seemed like such an easy slam dunk.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:23.200)
You set the clip up, knock it down, we move on five minutes down the road, we all get
Unknown Speaker (00:23:27.460)
to have a good time.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:28.460)
No one has to know that you got owned in that debate the rest of the time.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:32.240)
And instead he's like, you're right, no one has to know I got owned in that debate.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:35.839)
Also...
Unknown Speaker (00:23:36.839)
But I'm a anti-Semite.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:37.839)
Jesus Christ!
Unknown Speaker (00:23:38.839)
Because he has to connect the beginning of the documentary to the end.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:42.680)
He was talking anti-Semitic shit about Nathan Rothschild at the beginning, so now he's got
Unknown Speaker (00:23:47.119)
to talk to his ancestor and say anti-Semitic is shit at the end.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:50.119)
But you can leave that part implied!
Unknown Speaker (00:23:53.240)
The point that you gotta get to is the I gotcha moment.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:57.319)
Show don't tell.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:58.319)
Because otherwise...
Unknown Speaker (00:23:59.319)
Show don't tell!
Unknown Speaker (00:24:00.319)
Otherwise, if you don't do that, if you don't hit that home instead, it's just you being
Unknown Speaker (00:24:05.200)
a dick to multiple generations of everybody.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:09.079)
I think he might actually play the clip of Rothschild later.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:12.880)
I think he does, but at the same time, it's inexcusable he didn't play it then.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:17.039)
Yeah, that was when you played it!
Unknown Speaker (00:24:19.039)
I think he does play it.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:21.359)
As I recall, he does.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:22.920)
I'm just weirded out by how he's like, and he even gets the order of the planets wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:28.000)
Now...
Unknown Speaker (00:24:29.000)
You're a Jew!
Unknown Speaker (00:24:30.000)
He hears me screaming anti-Semitic things in his face.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:35.559)
It's unbelievable.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:37.559)
The level of mistakes that were made in editing of this documentary are outrageous in terms
Unknown Speaker (00:24:46.400)
of fact-checking, in terms of the bibliography, in terms of just like, if I were the guy who
Unknown Speaker (00:24:51.720)
is tasked with having to put this together, because whoever made this, it's two and a
Unknown Speaker (00:24:55.599)
half hours long or so, it would take a really long time to put together all the video and
Unknown Speaker (00:25:00.920)
the audio.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:01.920)
It would be like...
Unknown Speaker (00:25:03.339)
It's taken us ten hours just to watch it.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:05.559)
Jesus Christ.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:07.039)
Eight.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:08.039)
We're gonna get through this.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:09.039)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:10.039)
We're gonna make it.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:11.039)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:12.039)
We're causing it mainly, vast majority of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:15.960)
The consequences are bad and will be catastrophic unless we act.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:21.000)
The polar ice caps of Mars are receding at several miles a year, much faster than ours,
Unknown Speaker (00:25:28.200)
and that the moons of Saturn and Jupiter are melting.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:31.480)
In fact, several of their moons were ice and are now liquid seas.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:36.319)
Now how are SUVs causing that, David Rothschild?
Unknown Speaker (00:25:39.599)
That's because those planets are closer to the sun, my friend.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:43.279)
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:44.279)
There we go.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:45.279)
There it is.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:46.279)
Knock it up.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:47.279)
Knock it up.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:48.279)
Knock it down.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:49.279)
Pack it up.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:50.279)
Peck it in.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:51.279)
Let me begin.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:52.279)
It's a very simple matter.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:53.279)
What I wanted to say, and this is my final point, forget your taxation theory because
Unknown Speaker (00:25:56.039)
actually it's not taxation.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:58.759)
Put a price on the carbon.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:00.799)
Tax is the best way.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:02.039)
Cap and trade can also do it.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:04.279)
If there were a carbon-based tax, would there be a need for an economy-wide cap and trade
Unknown Speaker (00:26:14.599)
system?
Unknown Speaker (00:26:15.720)
They are not either or.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:18.160)
We can do both.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:19.160)
I am in favor of both.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:21.279)
I want to talk a little bit about Al Gore and his carbon tax connection that Alex Jones
Unknown Speaker (00:26:26.440)
lies about a lot because I actually looked into this and I find it incredibly fascinating.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:31.279)
The carbon tax stuff is amazing, how much Alex is lying about all of it, especially
Unknown Speaker (00:26:38.160)
Al Gore.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:39.160)
That's a high bar.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:40.160)
That's a high bar.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:41.359)
Knowing his personal distrust and hatred of Al Gore, I believe he would lie to the nth
Unknown Speaker (00:26:47.440)
degree.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:48.440)
Dude, I read this one blog, I don't even remember what it was and they don't even fucking deserve
Unknown Speaker (00:26:52.359)
a citation, but they're like, climate change is coasting along strictly on the charisma
Unknown Speaker (00:26:59.000)
of Al Gore.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:00.000)
That's the weirdest thing anybody...
Unknown Speaker (00:27:02.519)
Do you not know that he's stereotypical?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:04.319)
Famously.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:05.319)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:06.319)
His one characteristic is he's boring as shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:09.279)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:10.279)
The thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:11.279)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:12.279)
Every... Didn't he host SNL and every skit was just about how boring he was?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:16.319)
Did he host SNL?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:17.319)
Maybe.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:18.319)
I feel like he's just been portrayed on SNL as the most boring guy forever.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:22.160)
I might have conflated things, but be that as it may.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:24.839)
So I want to talk about carbon taxes.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:26.960)
Just I want to give you...
Unknown Speaker (00:27:27.960)
You want to rap.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:28.960)
I want to give you an example.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:29.960)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:30.960)
Do you want to turn your chair around and sit on it like a...
Unknown Speaker (00:27:32.319)
Hey, youth.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:33.319)
Yeah, exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:34.319)
So, Jordan, this year, Singapore is about to implement a carbon tax in this upcoming
Unknown Speaker (00:27:41.599)
year.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:42.599)
Right, and they've lost sovereignty.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:43.599)
So this isn't a tax that should affect citizens at all.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:47.680)
I read this write-up about it and here's the quote.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:51.119)
The tax will affect 30 to 40 large emitters, defined as those that emit 25,000 or more
Unknown Speaker (00:27:56.240)
tons of greenhouse gases annually.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:58.920)
The government is looking at charging between $10 and $20 per ton of greenhouse gas emissions.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:06.200)
The goal is to incentivize reducing emissions and create a level playing field for the development
Unknown Speaker (00:28:11.079)
of sustainable energy sources that are being held down by being left out of large subsidies
Unknown Speaker (00:28:15.519)
offered to coal and fossil fuel industries.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:17.279)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:18.279)
So now if you look at that, it's 30 to 40 businesses that are only going to be affected
Unknown Speaker (00:28:22.380)
by this in Singapore, and if you extrapolate that, it would just be a number of businesses
Unknown Speaker (00:28:27.279)
here, maybe a thousand businesses in America that would be affected.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:32.000)
So the reality is that a bunch of countries have imposed carbon taxes in the past.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:38.640)
Have they reduced carbon emissions?
Unknown Speaker (00:28:40.240)
Dude, get this.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:41.240)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:42.240)
Look, based on what I know from listening to Alex Jones, if you implement a carbon tax
Unknown Speaker (00:28:48.319)
of any kind, the entirety of the world will collapse.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:52.279)
So tell me, Dan, that that has happened many times over.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:55.759)
So the United Kingdom imposed one in 2013, Ireland did in 2010, Sweden did in 1991, Finland
Unknown Speaker (00:29:03.940)
in 1990.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:04.940)
Never even heard of Finland.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:06.160)
All of these countries saw near immediate results in decreased CO2 emissions with minimal
Unknown Speaker (00:29:10.279)
impact on the economy and no energy outages.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:13.759)
Australia provides the starkest example of the efficacy of carbon taxation.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:19.839)
They enacted a carbon tax in 2012, but repealed it in 2014 due to weirdness in the government.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:27.680)
Things got weird and people got mad and they're like, get rid of that.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:31.440)
And they're like, yeah, well, all right, fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:34.440)
It was not the voice of the people being heard.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:36.839)
It was.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:37.839)
Oh, it wasn't?
Unknown Speaker (00:29:38.839)
It was industry.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:39.839)
If there's anything I know about the Australian government from 2014 till further, it's the
Unknown Speaker (00:29:43.880)
will of the people.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:45.200)
Strongly heard.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:46.539)
So if you look at graphs of emissions from the time period between 2012 and 2014, what
Unknown Speaker (00:29:53.359)
you see is consistent decrease from July 2012 to July 2014, dropping over 15 million tons
Unknown Speaker (00:30:01.279)
in that time.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:02.279)
That's pretty, that's pretty solid.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:03.279)
The emissions dropped very precipitously.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:06.119)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:07.279)
Immediately after the repeal in July 2014, the trend turns around and within five months
Unknown Speaker (00:30:12.000)
emissions had gone back up approximately five million tons.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:15.819)
So there is a very clear cut example of this works.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:21.640)
This is effective in terms of cutting down emissions.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:25.099)
Using the examples of countries that have embraced carbon taxation, you can't realistically
Unknown Speaker (00:30:29.119)
claim that they don't work to reduce emissions.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:31.579)
The only argument you can make.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:33.319)
That's what people said about guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:35.559)
Well, that's also true.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:37.380)
And Australia is involved.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:38.640)
They put, they say you take people's guns away, then there's not going to be as many
Unknown Speaker (00:30:43.519)
shooting deaths, bullshit, Dan.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:46.480)
Where's the science?
Unknown Speaker (00:30:47.480)
Don't muddy the water.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:48.480)
Show me a scientist.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:49.480)
Don't muddy the water, Bertrand.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:51.480)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:52.880)
So the only argument you can really make is that emissions don't affect climate change,
Unknown Speaker (00:30:56.319)
which scientists have thoroughly addressed and isn't the case, or that money is somehow
Unknown Speaker (00:31:00.079)
being swindled by these climate taxes.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:02.599)
That's the only thing that you can possibly do.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:04.359)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:05.359)
Now the latter is a matter of, it is really interesting because if that's the case, then
Unknown Speaker (00:31:11.079)
that's not really a climate change issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:13.000)
That's a government corruption issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:14.480)
Seems like it.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:15.480)
And you should deal with it as it relates to that, as opposed to...
Unknown Speaker (00:31:17.599)
Seems like you should get rid of those people in the government, not the tax.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:20.559)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:21.559)
So this idea that people, these fat cats, they're trying to get rich off carbon taxes.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:25.359)
Oh no, those fat cats?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:26.359)
Or they're trying to fund the new world order in carbon taxes.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:29.119)
Oh yeah, those guys I am worried about.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:30.720)
It's interesting because there's these people who are really strong proponents of pushing
Unknown Speaker (00:31:34.839)
for the carbon tax, the carbon tax center.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:37.480)
They include this as an integral part of their proposal, quote, to avoid burdening low and
Unknown Speaker (00:31:49.359)
moderate income households, carbon tax proceeds should be returned to Americans through periodic
Unknown Speaker (00:31:54.400)
prorated dividends or dedicated to reducing the tax burden of regressive taxes, such as
Unknown Speaker (00:31:59.920)
the federal payroll tax and state sales tax, depending on whether the tax is imposed on
Unknown Speaker (00:32:04.460)
the federal or state level.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:06.279)
There is a precedent for this sort of thing, like the Alaska Permanent Fund, where the
Unknown Speaker (00:32:10.359)
state of Alaska sends every citizen a check for the same amount as payment for the earnings
Unknown Speaker (00:32:14.920)
of investments made from the state's North Slope oil royalties.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:19.799)
Canada announced carbon pricing floors in 2016, and this is what the plan included.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:25.119)
British Columbia's system is designed to be revenue neutral, meaning that the government
Unknown Speaker (00:32:28.619)
will take in no extra money from the tax and instead return it through tax credits and
Unknown Speaker (00:32:34.079)
cuts.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:35.079)
The Alberta system returns some of the costs to lower income consumers in the form of a
Unknown Speaker (00:32:39.440)
rebate, and small business taxes have been reduced from 3% to 2% to help offset costs.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:45.920)
So a lot of the money that is being brought in by climate or carbon taxes in countries
Unknown Speaker (00:32:52.319)
that are using it is legitimately being funneled directly back into the people who are paying
Unknown Speaker (00:32:58.779)
for energy.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:59.779)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:00.779)
So let me tell you why that is a smart idea and why it will never work here.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:06.319)
Do you know what is more likely to work here, Dan?
Unknown Speaker (00:33:12.079)
I hesitate to answer.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:13.599)
Is if the government implemented a carbon tax, said, we're using it to give back to
Unknown Speaker (00:33:19.359)
richer people, and then ended the conversation there.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:22.200)
Somehow everyone would be tricked into being along with it.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:24.380)
They would be fine with it.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:25.640)
There's no way, because you can't sell America on something that benefits America.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:30.220)
That only makes our crazy people go crazier.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:33.839)
We're more comfortable with you if you were like, okay, so we're implementing a carbon
Unknown Speaker (00:33:38.740)
tax on ExxonMobil, and that carbon tax, all of the proceeds of which will go to subsidize
Unknown Speaker (00:33:45.920)
ExxonMobil's new home, which we have hired Xzibit to pimp out.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:52.839)
That would be more cool with America than if you were like, no, no, no, guys, we got
Unknown Speaker (00:33:57.559)
it.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:58.559)
Wait, can we watch?
Unknown Speaker (00:33:59.559)
We know it's bad.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:00.559)
Carbon tax is bad.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:01.559)
Look, we know it's bad.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:02.640)
We know you don't like it.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:04.079)
We know you guys are going to feel weird about any new taxes, so what we're going to do is
Unknown Speaker (00:34:07.279)
we're going to take this tax, and it's not going to affect you.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:09.900)
It's not going to affect you.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:11.000)
It's like the estate tax.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:12.480)
Stop screaming at me about the estate tax.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:13.960)
I wish I hadn't brought that up.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:15.440)
I apologize.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:16.440)
The estate tax only affects the... Really, I should not talk about the estate tax in
Unknown Speaker (00:34:21.000)
this conversation.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:22.000)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:23.000)
You're making a good point.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:24.000)
Hold on.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:25.000)
Just calm down.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:26.000)
Just calm down.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:27.000)
We're going to take the money away from the people killing your children, and we're going
Unknown Speaker (00:34:30.320)
to give it back to you because you need it, and your children need it.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:36.280)
Your children are dying because of these people, and not only are we not taking money away
Unknown Speaker (00:34:41.139)
from them, we're just taking away the subsidies we already give them.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:45.599)
Do you know what's crazy?
Unknown Speaker (00:34:46.960)
We don't even need to enact a tax because right now you are paying for those rich oil
Unknown Speaker (00:34:52.880)
companies to murder your children.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:55.800)
What we're going to do is we're just going to make that better.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:57.920)
I get what you're saying, but I've completely lost track of the role play.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:01.239)
I don't know what to do.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:03.559)
I don't know how to respond to you.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:04.559)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:05.559)
You were supposed to be the American people.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:06.559)
I was going to ask for a binky.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:07.559)
That's what I was going to do.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:09.119)
That also is acceptable.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:10.920)
You're getting plus five points.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:11.920)
That was my comedic instinct was to say, I want tax binky, which might have worked if
Unknown Speaker (00:35:18.400)
I had just tried it.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:19.400)
It might have worked if you'd have committed to it, but instead you got nervous.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:22.199)
You bailed.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:23.199)
You bailed.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:24.199)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:25.199)
Minus five points for the attempted, minus five points for the break even.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:29.639)
The big problem that I have is that this is a carbon tax that will be applied to the businesses
Unknown Speaker (00:35:35.039)
and what have you, but there's no law that affects them just passing the tax down to
Unknown Speaker (00:35:40.480)
consumers, which I think is really what should be done is that no, you fucking live with
Unknown Speaker (00:35:44.920)
that tax, you asshole, instead of charging everybody more and then the money that's collected
Unknown Speaker (00:35:51.039)
from the tax redistributed to the people who had to pay more for, uh, now of course the
Unknown Speaker (00:35:56.840)
argument against that is that if you tax Exxon Mobil or those guys more, they're just going
Unknown Speaker (00:36:03.840)
to then pass that tax onto you in the form of higher prices.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:08.320)
That's what I just said.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:09.320)
That's what I'm talking about.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:10.320)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:11.320)
And I say, fuck that there should be something in place that says you can't do that.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:15.880)
How would you not do that?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:17.199)
Eat the tax, bitch.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:18.199)
That's what I would say.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:19.199)
How would you not do that?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:20.199)
Well, eat the tax.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:23.559)
Eat the tax, bitch.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:24.559)
You can't pass it along.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:25.719)
That seems like, it seems like something that should be able to happen because otherwise
Unknown Speaker (00:36:29.260)
there's, because otherwise there's no way for the government or society to restrain
Unknown Speaker (00:36:35.400)
business at all because anytime a business is levied with some sort of penalty or they're
Unknown Speaker (00:36:40.000)
levied with any sort of tax, they can be like, all right, well, products are a little more
Unknown Speaker (00:36:44.639)
expensive.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:45.639)
Everyone's going to buy them anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:46.679)
They have.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:47.679)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:48.679)
So that is kind of the, that is the point of it though, is that if you are going to,
Unknown Speaker (00:36:52.360)
capitalism sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:53.360)
Well yeah, capitalism sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:54.400)
But if you are going to do that, if you are going to tax like an Exxon or the like, you
Unknown Speaker (00:36:59.320)
have to then remove the oil subsidies that you give them in the first place.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:03.500)
So what you're really doing is making it so expensive to do those things that they are,
Unknown Speaker (00:37:09.360)
that you are fostering a market change for somebody to do something else.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:13.920)
You know, like what's the highest growing job creator now is alternative energy.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:19.079)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:20.079)
Give the subs, take all the oil and gas subsidies away from Exxon and those guys today, give
Unknown Speaker (00:37:25.579)
it to alternative energy.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:27.679)
You won't need a carbon tax.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:29.039)
They will go away on their own because it turns out their businesses are built almost
Unknown Speaker (00:37:34.679)
entirely around fucking people over.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:36.320)
There's actually some good arguments I've read for why that wouldn't work.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:40.599)
But I can't remember exactly what they are right now.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:43.000)
But there are some compelling arguments about why.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:44.960)
Oh, I'm not saying that that's like a, Jordan fixed it.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:48.239)
No, that's not a quick solution to that.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:50.639)
No, but even like subsidies for the renewables energy wouldn't necessarily be a positive
Unknown Speaker (00:37:56.079)
thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:57.079)
I don't remember exactly what it was and I feel stupid talking about it right now.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:00.119)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:01.119)
Because it was a very complicated article that I read.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:03.119)
Well, but there's, I mean, there's also been massive failures that the government has invested
Unknown Speaker (00:38:08.400)
millions upon millions of dollars in and have exploded miserably.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:11.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:12.519)
And it turns out renewable energy is hard.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:15.440)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:16.440)
And so, which is almost like sometimes you go down the wrong road.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:19.519)
It's almost like maybe if you fuck up one time on saving the universe, you shouldn't
Unknown Speaker (00:38:25.599)
just quit.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:26.800)
So speaking of that, let's talk about Al Gore.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:28.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:29.840)
So Alex Jones like to say he pretends that this whole tax credit thing, this, uh, this
Unknown Speaker (00:38:33.719)
carbon tax thing, carbon tax credit thing, this carbon tax, all a scam by Al Gore because
Unknown Speaker (00:38:39.880)
he owns a bunch of techs carbon credits that he's secretly going to be making billions
Unknown Speaker (00:38:44.920)
of dollars off of.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:45.960)
If only the world will get in line with him.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:49.400)
Oh man.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:50.400)
If Alex had known about Bitcoin when he made this film, Jesus.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:54.039)
So the accusation that Al Gore is just making stuff up so he can get super rich on sustainable
Unknown Speaker (00:38:58.340)
energy is ridiculously flimsy.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:00.659)
For that to be true, thousands and thousands of scientists and researchers, academics and
Unknown Speaker (00:39:04.400)
politicians all would have to be lying to support his scam.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:07.639)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:08.639)
His peer reviewed studies would have to be falsified, uh, you know, for no reason, uh,
Unknown Speaker (00:39:14.199)
just in order to prop up his scam all by people who don't stand to gain anything from the
Unknown Speaker (00:39:18.440)
scam themselves.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:19.440)
I know a guy.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:20.440)
The reality of this is that Al Gore started a business called Generation Investment Management
Unknown Speaker (00:39:25.920)
in 2004 as a means of investing in and helping move forward renewable green technologies.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:31.920)
The firm has been very successful because it turns out sustainable resources can be
Unknown Speaker (00:39:36.300)
incredibly profitable as a market to be in quote, the message he hopes generation's record
Unknown Speaker (00:39:41.840)
will call attention to is one that the world's investors can't ignore, that they can make
Unknown Speaker (00:39:46.480)
more money if they change their practices in a way that will at the same time also reduce
Unknown Speaker (00:39:51.300)
the environmental and social damage modern capitalism can do.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:55.559)
That's from a profile in the Atlantic and uh, like if you look at it, his investment
Unknown Speaker (00:40:02.360)
firm only working with sustainable business models has outperformed like across the board,
Unknown Speaker (00:40:09.800)
almost every other investment firm.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:12.079)
I like that and it makes me angry.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:16.440)
It does matter.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:17.440)
It does matter.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:18.440)
I know, but it makes me so angry.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:20.079)
It shouldn't be how we measured things, but at the same time, good for him.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:23.280)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:24.280)
I don't know who to root for.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:25.280)
Well, I, I don't, I don't root for him implicitly, but I root for him in that what his model
Unknown Speaker (00:40:31.340)
is is trying to get people to be selfish in the long run and that that is a, I think that
Unknown Speaker (00:40:37.920)
is a good thing and the fact that everyone has thought about this idea that what he's
Unknown Speaker (00:40:43.159)
of what he's doing and being like, that's not possible.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:46.239)
And he went and fucked around and did it.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:48.119)
And now everyone's like, Oh, there's a concrete example of making a lot of money in this.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:53.840)
And so, and he wasn't even trying and he got a triple double.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:56.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:57.519)
He had a good day.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:58.519)
Come on.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:59.519)
Anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:00.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:05.360)
The architects of the new world order are in a race to complete the structure of world
Unknown Speaker (00:41:10.199)
government so they can suppress the independent development of technologies that threaten
Unknown Speaker (00:41:15.239)
their monopoly of power while at the same time steering new developments in the direction
Unknown Speaker (00:41:20.599)
the architects chart for humanity.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:23.139)
There's that tree.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:26.320)
The technocrats call their governing system, the final revolution because in the past he's
Unknown Speaker (00:41:34.519)
mixing up a lot of things.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:35.760)
The first global revolution is a reference to the club of Rome.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:39.119)
The ultimate revolution is the name of the speech of the elders Huxley gave the final
Unknown Speaker (00:41:43.719)
revolution is nothing.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:45.480)
Now enforcement is primarily psychological and economic and society itself is a construct
Unknown Speaker (00:41:50.980)
of the elite who operate outside the controlled paradigm and control the civilization within
Unknown Speaker (00:41:56.840)
just as a child maintains the environment of a fish tank.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:00.599)
We are like lab rats living out our entire existence, never questioning the confines
Unknown Speaker (00:42:05.519)
of the cage or the scientists to experiment on us.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:10.719)
New world order engineers have hijacked human destiny is controllers have closely studied
Unknown Speaker (00:42:16.400)
human behavior for more than a hundred years and are now steering us with expert control
Unknown Speaker (00:42:21.800)
using that the sound is great on this mind give that system to the point of being a control
Unknown Speaker (00:42:29.360)
wire.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:30.360)
There's a person like a car.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:31.599)
Why did tits suddenly show up in this doc right after low hands?
Unknown Speaker (00:42:34.639)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:35.639)
You can't give me two hours of bullshit and then tits.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:41.280)
Here's another quote by 2020 there will be a one world government Ray Kurzweil 1999.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:46.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:47.840)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:48.840)
I don't even need to know.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:49.840)
You could have just made that up.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:51.119)
It's some asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:52.119)
It is real but it's actually misquoted.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:54.079)
Some asshole said it.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:55.079)
I don't give a shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:56.079)
It's misquoted.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:57.079)
It's by 2020 there will be a new world government and this is from his book in the age of intelligent
Unknown Speaker (00:43:01.639)
machines and it suffers from the same curse that all of his work does namely that he makes
Unknown Speaker (00:43:05.940)
a lot of predictions that sound interesting but aren't really based on anything other
Unknown Speaker (00:43:09.559)
than speculation.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:11.199)
Ray Kurzweil has a terrible track record with predictions including such like this.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:17.480)
So this was from his book in 1999.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:19.960)
These are predictions for 2009.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:21.559)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:22.559)
People use personal computers the size of rings, pens, credit cards and books.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:27.079)
The typical home will have a- Wait.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:30.360)
I'll give him two for five on that one.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:32.679)
What are you talking about?
Unknown Speaker (00:43:34.599)
People use personal computers the size of books?
Unknown Speaker (00:43:37.599)
Maybe that's one for four.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:39.280)
Well what was the what were they what was the-
Unknown Speaker (00:43:40.840)
Pins, credit cards, rings.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:42.920)
Credit cards, credit card, phone, credit card, phone, I'm going to give them that.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:45.960)
Way smaller.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:46.960)
We'll give them one and a half.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:47.960)
We'll give them one and a half.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:48.960)
Fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:49.960)
The typical home has over 100 computers in it, many of which are embedded in appliances.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:54.940)
What is a computer?
Unknown Speaker (00:43:56.199)
And yes, he is correct.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:57.199)
Shut up.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:58.199)
Don't go back to the abacus argument.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:02.739)
Cybernetic chauffeurs can drive cars for humans and be retrofitted into existing cars.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:07.440)
That's true, but we just call them people that we don't talk to in-
Unknown Speaker (00:44:10.920)
Uber?
Unknown Speaker (00:44:11.920)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:12.920)
They work by communicating with other vehicles and with sensors embedded into the roads.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:16.000)
Again, as long as you don't feel like Uber drivers are people, that's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:20.400)
He's made a number of sort of solid predictions, too.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:24.639)
Most music will be distributed electronically and most transactions will be made on the
Unknown Speaker (00:44:28.400)
internet.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:29.400)
Those sort of predictions.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:30.400)
Great.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:31.400)
Good work.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:32.400)
It's just pretty solid guesswork.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:33.900)
That's not really that crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:36.119)
That is just sort of having a good idea about where technology is going.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:39.400)
A lot of this other stuff is pretty crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:41.739)
It's really wild.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:42.739)
One of his other predictions was that by 2009, musicians will jam with robot mans.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:54.159)
Robots will be capable of the creativity to jam.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:57.840)
And then when he was called on it, he was like, you ever play Guitar Hero?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:03.059)
That's not the same thing, asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:05.480)
Wait, when did he say this?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:09.320)
After 2009.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:10.320)
So it'd be like 2010.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:11.320)
Oh, this was after 2009 that he said that eventually-
Unknown Speaker (00:45:13.679)
Whenever Guitar Hero was out.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:16.000)
So it had to have been 2009, 2010.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:19.039)
I'd have been like, man, you never heard of Herbie Hancock?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:23.039)
Robots already know how to jam.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:30.039)
The important thing to think about with Ray Kurzweil is he is a futurist and a technologist.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:35.460)
And so the only thing that he really cares about when he makes predictions is talking
Unknown Speaker (00:45:38.599)
about technology, not politics or any other consideration.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:41.960)
His argument that he's making in this text- Is there a reason to listen to him?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:46.400)
Ray Kurzweil?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:47.400)
What does he do?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:48.400)
He's a futurist.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:49.400)
He also worked for Google.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:50.400)
I feel like futurist isn't a gig.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:52.320)
He's a very prominent- futurist is a fucking gig.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:57.360)
You know what you can do?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:58.360)
You know how Alan Watts has all those fucking videos that people have online with swelling
Unknown Speaker (00:46:02.760)
music behind him giving lectures?
Unknown Speaker (00:46:04.800)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:05.800)
That's the same thing with Ray Kurzweil.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:06.800)
Oh shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:07.800)
Do you want to do that?
Unknown Speaker (00:46:08.800)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:09.800)
Have we not- have we considered that maybe our issue is that we just haven't put swelling
Unknown Speaker (00:46:13.840)
music behind us at the right time?
Unknown Speaker (00:46:15.280)
This documentary certainly has a lot of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:17.239)
No shit!
Unknown Speaker (00:46:18.239)
It's doing it great.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:19.239)
Wow.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:20.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:21.239)
Fuck.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:22.239)
So Ray Kurzweil also was like a- he was a consultant at Google and what have you.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:24.920)
Like he's a- he's a big time- Ray, what do you think about the future?
Unknown Speaker (00:46:28.599)
It's coming.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:29.599)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:30.599)
Robots gonna be jamming.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:33.599)
But this idea that he's presenting about this new world government, not one world government
Unknown Speaker (00:46:37.800)
as Alec is misquoting, is that it's about technology.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:42.280)
The argument that he's making is that- Technology!
Unknown Speaker (00:46:45.239)
The advances in technology that are gonna happen like the proliferation of the internet
Unknown Speaker (00:46:49.579)
and space travel and that sort of stuff, it's gonna necessitate greater world collaboration
Unknown Speaker (00:46:54.159)
to avoid the end result of complete segregation between nations or destruction as it looks
Unknown Speaker (00:46:59.519)
now with China and Russia existing in their current state and Trump stoke- stroking up-
Unknown Speaker (00:47:04.039)
stroking up?
Unknown Speaker (00:47:05.039)
Stroking up?
Unknown Speaker (00:47:06.039)
A virulent strain of American nationalism.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:08.320)
There's literally zero reason to think that the United Government is gonna happen in two
Unknown Speaker (00:47:11.880)
years.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:12.880)
There's zero reason to think a government is going to happen in two years.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:16.239)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:17.239)
So this prediction is pretty shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:18.480)
Uh, Alec's misquoted it by using the wrong word there, but otherwise, fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:23.440)
So Ray Kurzweil's predictions, not great.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:31.159)
Eugenics dominated the 20th century.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:33.039)
Did it?
Unknown Speaker (00:47:34.039)
It's ruthless spirit has now metastasized into the fields of genetics, nanotech, and
Unknown Speaker (00:47:39.559)
robotics.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:40.559)
Genetics is in the word eugenics.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:42.480)
From their inception, all three disciplines have been dominated by eugenicists.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:49.280)
The billionaire founder of Sun Microsystems, Bill Joy, courageously went public in 2000
Unknown Speaker (00:47:55.320)
to warn of a cancerous consensus among the technocratic elite that at best humanity would
Unknown Speaker (00:48:00.800)
be completely enslaved by the year 2030.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:04.079)
And at worst, mass extermination of everyone but the elite would take place.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:08.679)
God, it took so much courage for him to say that.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:11.079)
He wrote this article, Why the Future Doesn't Need Us.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:13.400)
If you go read it, it- Alex is completely misrepresenting it.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:16.760)
Fucking really long, boring thing to go through.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:19.400)
What it is, is dripping with courage.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:21.760)
And we've gone over this on the show already, and I've already abandoned my whole thing
Unknown Speaker (00:48:25.800)
like this is going to be a standalone.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:28.000)
There's no way anyone who doesn't already like the show is going to enjoy this.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:30.719)
Oh, of course not.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:31.719)
The fuck are we doing?
Unknown Speaker (00:48:32.719)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:33.880)
I'm realizing that now.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:34.880)
I have a couple of really fucking funny things that are coming up still, I promise you.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:40.039)
So self-conscious.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:41.039)
Oh my god, there's 13 minutes left for this documentary and I'm losing it.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:45.679)
I'm done.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:46.679)
I'm done.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:47.679)
Like, not done, but my emotional state is so fried.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:51.360)
I feel so- I've lost my mind.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:52.679)
I feel so guilty that I've kept you here this long.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:55.480)
Look, it's- look, we agreed.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:57.800)
We agreed.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:58.800)
Alright, we're going to make it.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:59.800)
We were married in common law court.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:01.400)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:02.400)
You do a podcast with someone for seven hours, you're common law married.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:05.159)
It's common law married, that is.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:07.480)
Admiralty law, baby.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:10.280)
So anyway, go read, You Can Find Why the Future Doesn't Need Us.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:13.800)
You can find this online.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:14.800)
Or don't.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:15.800)
Go read it.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:16.800)
It's actually really interesting.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:17.800)
It has nothing to do with what Alex is talking about.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:18.800)
You just said it was really boring.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:19.800)
No, it's boring for us to talk about.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:21.119)
Oh, okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:22.119)
We've already talked about it in depth.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:23.119)
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:24.119)
It doesn't say any of the things Alex is saying.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:25.119)
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:26.119)
And Ray Kurzweil is fucking also heavily featured.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:31.679)
There's just more interesting stuff for us to cover.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:34.119)
The best part of doing this all in one thing is I'm just interested to find out how angry
Unknown Speaker (00:49:38.880)
we are going to- we're both going to be for different reasons right as it ends.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:42.599)
We're both going to be pissed off.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:44.039)
No, I think we'll feel a joy, an elation, orgasmic, orgiastic pleasure.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:49.599)
No, I'm going to go with none of those.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:52.119)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:53.119)
He's talking about transhumanism.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:56.679)
Many of its adherents see only the beneficial aspects of technology's exponential rise.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:01.639)
Technology.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:02.639)
Like bringing sight to the blind, sound to the deaf, and longer life for all.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:10.840)
So one of the problems that Alex has here with transhumanism is that he's pretending
Unknown Speaker (00:50:14.000)
that transhumanism is one thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:16.860)
It's not.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:17.860)
People do not agree within that community that they all fucking fight with each other
Unknown Speaker (00:50:23.239)
all the time.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:24.239)
Nope.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:25.239)
I can't imagine a transhumanist society fighting with each other.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:29.239)
Literally the entire meaning of your name is transhumaning, is getting beyond what a
Unknown Speaker (00:50:35.480)
human is.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:36.480)
Of course, getting along with other people trying to get beyond.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:39.440)
They're trying to get beyond you at the same time.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:41.400)
And he pretends that posthumanism was what transhumanism grew out of, and no one within
Unknown Speaker (00:50:48.239)
the transhumanist community actually even agrees that that's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:51.980)
Some people think it is possible that they grew out of posthumanism, but that's not a
Unknown Speaker (00:50:56.239)
consensus.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:57.239)
They all have arguments about it because they fucking argue about everything.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:59.960)
The problem that Alex runs into here is treating a large, diverse group as one individual thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:04.079)
He's pretending that all transhumanists believe in the singularity, which isn't true.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:08.400)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:09.400)
He doesn't agree with anything.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:11.599)
More than anything else, transhumanism is a school of theorists.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:14.900)
They're mostly interested in watching emerging technologies and speculating about how those
Unknown Speaker (00:51:18.559)
technologies could be used in the advancement of humanity, and what the implications of
Unknown Speaker (00:51:22.820)
those uses could be.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:24.780)
The history of transhumanism has been one of bold and interesting predictions, most
Unknown Speaker (00:51:29.539)
of which have been wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:31.119)
In 1999, in a different book, Ray Kurzweil wrote, called The Age of Spiritual Machines,
Unknown Speaker (00:51:36.579)
he included a number of predictions for 2009, some of these have also failed.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:42.559)
This is where the humans jam with cybernetic musicians.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:47.579)
Translating telephones, speech-to-speech language translation, are commonly used for many language
Unknown Speaker (00:51:52.840)
pairs.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:53.840)
That is absolutely not the case.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:55.599)
Those are here pretty much like now, like at best.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:00.380)
Not even close.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:02.519)
Probably within the next decade or so, that technology will be refined, but no.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:06.559)
It's not even close to, the recognition software is not good.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:10.679)
You can do it, but whatever is going to come out is going to be real fucking clunky.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:14.599)
It's going to be brutal.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:15.599)
It's going to be clunky translation.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:16.599)
It exists.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:17.599)
I'll give him one.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:18.599)
Oh, sh-
Unknown Speaker (00:52:19.599)
I'll give him minus one.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:20.599)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:21.599)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:22.599)
I'll give him minus one instead of minus ten.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:23.599)
Most routine business transactions, purchases, travel, reservations, take place between
Unknown Speaker (00:52:26.619)
a human and a virtual personality.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:28.599)
Often, the virtual presentation includes an animated visual presence that will look like
Unknown Speaker (00:52:32.920)
a human face.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:34.199)
He just watched anime.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:35.800)
He got high and looked at Clippy.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:37.360)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:38.360)
That's what happened.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:39.840)
And his last one, the majority of text-
Unknown Speaker (00:52:41.360)
Do you need some help with that prediction?
Unknown Speaker (00:52:42.960)
The majority of text is created using continuous speech recognition, and that's not even close
Unknown Speaker (00:52:48.480)
to current.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:49.480)
Ooh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:50.480)
No, that one's no good.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:51.480)
That one's actually, that one's further away than the other two.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:56.239)
I think we're closer to getting an animated Siri hanging around with us as we buy shit
Unknown Speaker (00:53:03.000)
than we are with-
Unknown Speaker (00:53:04.000)
But no one has any use for that, because you can just buy things through interfaces on
Unknown Speaker (00:53:07.800)
like Amazon and shit like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:09.440)
You have no interest in talking to a robot on the screen.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:12.679)
Super cute.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:13.679)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:14.679)
Transhumanism dwells in that same area as motivational speakers to some extent.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:18.039)
Most of what people know or ever hear about them are flowy speeches about potentialities
Unknown Speaker (00:53:23.079)
and all this fun stuff about human futures.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:26.559)
The reality is that transhumanism is much more diverse, much less exciting, and often
Unknown Speaker (00:53:30.559)
bogged down with debates about the ethical implications of possible future technologies.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:36.039)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:37.039)
And Alex is pretending it's all like, people like, we worship this angularity.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:40.659)
The most recent transhumanist event of our time has been a dude injecting himself with
Unknown Speaker (00:53:46.280)
what he thinks is a herpes cure.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:49.000)
Oh, sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:50.679)
One stage in front of everybody else at the transhumanist.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:54.519)
Wait, wait.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:55.519)
Are you telling me that he had Lord Moncton's patented herpes cure?
Unknown Speaker (00:54:00.119)
No, it was a, it was a, it was a, you didn't hear about this?
Unknown Speaker (00:54:03.119)
No, but I've heard about these guys who make themselves cyborgs by like-
Unknown Speaker (00:54:06.480)
Well, it's, yeah, they're like, they're-
Unknown Speaker (00:54:08.519)
Implanting little things.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:09.519)
It's like a biohackers conference.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:11.880)
That kind of thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:12.880)
So you got-
Unknown Speaker (00:54:13.880)
Those guys put magnets in their fingers.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:14.880)
You got the people who got magnets in their fingers and this guy is like, well, I biohacked
Unknown Speaker (00:54:19.480)
a cure for herpes, guess what?
Unknown Speaker (00:54:21.639)
I got herpes and he just shoved it right up his ass.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:24.679)
It's pretty great.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:25.679)
Up his ass?
Unknown Speaker (00:54:26.679)
Eh, it's a syringe.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:27.679)
Cheek.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:28.679)
It was a syringe so it was in the cheek.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:29.880)
It wasn't straight up there, but you know, you can take artistic license however you
Unknown Speaker (00:54:33.659)
like it.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:34.659)
I suppose so.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:35.659)
Whatever you need at this late hour.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:36.659)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:37.659)
Let's, let's, let's come on.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:38.659)
Oh, that's right.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:39.659)
We're still watching this documentary.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:42.420)
But what many of them don't know is that master eugenicist Julian Huxley founded transhumanism
Unknown Speaker (00:54:48.679)
and that society's controllers openly admit that the new system is designed to progress
Unknown Speaker (00:54:54.320)
into absolute tyranny.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:56.159)
Nope.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:57.159)
Julian Huxley is sometimes credited as having coined the term transhumanism, but that's
Unknown Speaker (00:55:01.679)
bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:02.679)
Realistically, the roots of transhumanism could be considered, uh, you could go back
Unknown Speaker (00:55:06.559)
to any ancient world stories about the conquest for immortality.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:09.559)
I was gonna say, anytime, anytime people are like, I don't want to be people no more.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:13.840)
You could talk about Ponce de Leon's hunt for the fountain of youth, any of these sorts
Unknown Speaker (00:55:17.199)
of things, any of the sort of like, I don't want to be people no more.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:20.960)
These impulses that humans have, uh, are just deeply rooted in our condition.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:24.800)
The man has always sought after a dream to finding external inputs that will grant them
Unknown Speaker (00:55:28.900)
longer life or immortality.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:30.900)
Even Alex Jones, his own product, DNA force comes from that.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:34.360)
I don't want to be people no more.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:36.159)
It markets itself by saying it repairs damage to the telomeres of your DNA, which they imply,
Unknown Speaker (00:55:41.920)
but legally can't claim will improve your body's longevity.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:45.880)
He even sells products from Dr. Wallach's Young Jevity line, whose name evokes nothing
Unknown Speaker (00:55:51.360)
if not the longevity of youth.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:53.719)
And Young Jeezy.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:54.719)
Yeah, that's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:55.719)
Also, those are the only two things that David, the second is absolutely an accident.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:01.280)
Julian Huxley did, uh, coin transhumanism, the term.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:04.960)
If you ask some people who are wrong, uh, in an article he wrote in 1957, thank you.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:12.599)
But the truth is the term had been used by Canadian philosopher W.D.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:16.440)
Light call 17 years earlier.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:18.880)
None of these ideas about transhumanism were new and Huxley was around.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:22.480)
It's just that he was a high profile biologist and the brother of Aldous Huxley and the technology
Unknown Speaker (00:56:27.559)
technological advances were much greater in 1957 than they were in 1940 or in 1924 when
Unknown Speaker (00:56:33.800)
J.B.S.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:34.800)
Haldane introduced proto transhumanist ideas in his book Didalis or Science and the Future,
Unknown Speaker (00:56:40.880)
wherein he argues that we will be able to advance as a species through invention, but
Unknown Speaker (00:56:44.800)
it will all be bad progress if we do not also evolve our ethics along the way.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:49.440)
So all these ideas that exist for fucking 30 years by the time Aldous Huxley got around.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:54.480)
So what you're saying is nobody ain't never heard of steampunk before.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:59.039)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:00.039)
That's what you just said.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:01.039)
Hundo.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:02.039)
So the World Transhumanist Association put out two clear definitions of the transhumanist
Unknown Speaker (00:57:05.599)
movement in general, which means that all transhumanists do not agree with either of
Unknown Speaker (00:57:09.960)
those.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:10.960)
I was going to say none of them.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:11.960)
That's part of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:12.960)
The whole point of being a transhumanist is you're not stuck with all of this bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:18.840)
I'm not even going to read either of those.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:19.840)
If you wanted to just be a human, you would be with the humanist bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:23.880)
I'm moving straight past those.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:26.119)
Why would you want to be a transhumanist?
Unknown Speaker (00:57:28.559)
You're like, OK, look, we need to hack our bodies.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:32.099)
We need to change.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:33.119)
This entire earth is destroying us.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:34.860)
This human body that I exist in is not functional anymore.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:38.239)
We're all dying.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:39.360)
What I need to do is I need to make this massive change.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:41.760)
I need to find a way to augment my body so I can survive.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:45.519)
Wait a second.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:46.519)
Are you telling me that I'm just going to get caught up with all this bullshit with
Unknown Speaker (00:57:49.679)
other people with magnets in my hands?
Unknown Speaker (00:57:52.480)
Fuck this.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:53.480)
I want to get into a fight.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:55.719)
I want to be a transhuman.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:56.719)
I want to put more magnets in my hand.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:58.679)
I want to put more magnets in my hand.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:00.639)
I don't have to talk to some asshole about magnets in your hands is wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:04.800)
That's the whole point of putting magnets in my hands.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:06.559)
That's your transhumanist right.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:07.960)
That's my transhumanist right.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:09.599)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:10.599)
That's what I say.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:11.599)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:12.599)
Look, the bottom line is even those two things, all it really boils down to is that they've
Unknown Speaker (00:58:16.539)
always throughout their entire history of transhumanism had a very big emphasis on the
Unknown Speaker (00:58:22.480)
ethics of possible technologies.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:25.159)
It's been an essential part of transhumanism and probably one of the part that makes it
Unknown Speaker (00:58:29.199)
the most boring.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:31.159)
But anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:37.159)
Leading transhumanist Ray Kurzweil boasts that technological advancements will allow
Unknown Speaker (00:58:41.519)
those that can afford it to live forever, but admits that most won't be able to keep
Unknown Speaker (00:58:46.920)
up with the new master race.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:51.920)
The drive for world government is now all about who will control and have access to
Unknown Speaker (00:58:57.440)
my radical life extension systems.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:00.280)
Margaret Thatcher's husband.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:03.119)
Biological evolution is too slow for the human species over the next few decades.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:08.480)
It's going to be left in the dust.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:10.360)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:11.360)
Yeah, that's that actually sounds that sounds right.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:14.360)
I think I'm I think I'm on board with that.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:16.400)
I think he's nailed that.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:17.400)
I'd like to humble myself before you.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:19.239)
I have no idea if this quote is real.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:22.840)
At this point in the documentary, I've given up on trying to prove his quotes.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:27.239)
They're all so fake.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:28.559)
I don't give a fuck what Ray Kurzweil says is whatever it could be real, could not be.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:37.639)
We found Dan's breaking point and humanists believe three Ray Kurzweil quotes will get
Unknown Speaker (00:59:41.960)
him to kill himself by merging with technology.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:44.800)
Now it may be within their reach.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:51.239)
Decades ago, transhumanists said that if you do not accept augmentation or enhancements,
Unknown Speaker (00:59:56.019)
you would no longer be able to get jobs.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:58.519)
And now it's happening today.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:00.199)
Oh, we totally did it.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:04.880)
The elite who occupy way before we get to this quote, he flashed up that thing about
Unknown Speaker (01:00:09.519)
Mexican government workers.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:11.400)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:12.400)
And Ohio plant had a computer chip.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:15.360)
This is all such fucking nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:17.760)
There's two reasons that the Mexican government is microchipping people.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:21.760)
First is that they have to make sure that access to some sensitive information is contained.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:26.480)
Second, they have nowhere else to put these goddamn microchips.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:29.320)
They're everywhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:30.320)
They're fucking everywhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:31.320)
They're lousy.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:32.320)
These microchips are everywhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:33.320)
Put them in your hands.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:35.840)
God damn it.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:36.840)
The largest issue with Mexican law enforcement that they face outside of the cartels is police
Unknown Speaker (01:00:41.000)
corruption.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:42.000)
The use of RFID chips implanted in police officers allows a much greater control of
Unknown Speaker (01:00:46.239)
access to restricted information, evidence lockers, that sort of thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:50.000)
Chips implanted in arms cannot be faked because they give a unique RFID code for each person
Unknown Speaker (01:00:55.039)
and allows a record of who is accessed, what pieces of evidence, can't doctor stuff, all
Unknown Speaker (01:00:59.559)
that shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:00.559)
This could not be achieved using a device planted in a standard ID card for the same
Unknown Speaker (01:01:04.840)
reason that an ID card could be stolen.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:07.239)
The ID card's corrupt officer could just be like, hey, someone took my card or something
Unknown Speaker (01:01:11.559)
like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:13.920)
They're not giving them to rank and file employees.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:15.880)
These are federal top cops prosecutors because they have a massive problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:20.519)
The other issue is-
Unknown Speaker (01:01:21.519)
Also, you're going to get somebody's hand taken off.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:23.119)
No, you can't do that because they're so fragile, these things, that if you try and take them
Unknown Speaker (01:01:28.519)
out of someone's arm or whatever, they'll break.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:31.360)
They're specially designed.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:32.360)
Well, that's why you take the arm.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:33.480)
But you can't walk into a government building with an arm.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:36.960)
I think someone would be like, hey guy, hey guy, hey, hey.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:41.199)
No, no, no, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:42.639)
You put it in a-
Unknown Speaker (01:01:43.639)
Even in the most terrible parts of Mexico, I think someone would be like, what's up?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:49.480)
Put it in the back.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:50.480)
Okay, all right.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:51.480)
Here you go.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:52.480)
Are you going to say bassinet?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:53.480)
Nope.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:54.480)
I'm not going to say bassinet.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:55.480)
A babushka.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:56.480)
What are you going to say?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:57.480)
I am not going to walk in an arm and a baby.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:00.400)
A Bjorn, a Bjorn.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:01.400)
Come on.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:02.400)
What kind of monster would I be?
Unknown Speaker (01:02:03.400)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:04.400)
Anybody order a sandwich?
Unknown Speaker (01:02:05.400)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:06.400)
Because I got an arm and a sandwich bag for you.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:09.440)
Got a phone?
Unknown Speaker (01:02:10.440)
There you go.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:11.440)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:12.440)
Done.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:13.440)
Get me into that evidence locker.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:14.440)
That might work, but it'd be strange for the subway delivery guy to wander around.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:21.880)
Please don't give weird eight hours into an Alex Jones documentary, a little bit drunk
Unknown Speaker (01:02:27.079)
Jordan, a nice little kick in the arm with, yeah, you could probably rip a federal employee's
Unknown Speaker (01:02:32.880)
arm off and then break into the Mexico City booth.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:35.679)
It'd be tough.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:36.679)
It would be a challenge.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:37.679)
It would be Ocean 17.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:38.880)
I could do it.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:40.519)
The other reason-
Unknown Speaker (01:02:41.519)
But six would be arms.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:43.960)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:44.960)
The other reason that they do this is because there's a lot of kidnappings in Mexico.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:51.000)
A lot of people are getting chipped in order to-
Unknown Speaker (01:02:52.880)
A lot of kidnappings.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:54.719)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:55.719)
Mexico ranks incredibly high in terms of kidnapping statistics.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:00.159)
Kidnapping jumped almost 40% between 2004 and 2007 in Mexico according to official statistics.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:06.400)
Mexico ranks right up there with conflict zones like Iraq and Columbia as the worst
Unknown Speaker (01:03:10.760)
countries for abductions.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:12.400)
So there's a lot of people who are interested in that, in chipping for that capability.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:17.119)
I would prefer not to get abducted.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:18.840)
It's not entirely clear whether or not that is effective for that, but you understand
Unknown Speaker (01:03:24.199)
the sort of motivation?
Unknown Speaker (01:03:25.199)
Probably not.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:26.199)
Almost certainly not.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:27.199)
Anyway, let's get to this-
Unknown Speaker (01:03:28.199)
Like if you're saying that the chip is so fragile, where are you going to put the chip?
Unknown Speaker (01:03:31.039)
Eh, never mind.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:32.599)
Let's get to this dumb ass clip.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:33.920)
I could probably kidnap you.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:35.280)
Here's a dumb quote.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:36.280)
Let's kidnap somebody.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:37.280)
By the commanding heights of digital reality are suicidal nihilists.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:42.039)
Suicidal nihilists know that there is no longer-
Unknown Speaker (01:03:44.159)
Arthur Croker.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:45.159)
...purpose to their willing, but they would always prefer to go on willing than not to
Unknown Speaker (01:03:49.280)
act at all.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:50.400)
They can very happily ally themselves with a notion of nuclear holocaust or perfect exterminism.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:57.880)
So that was a quote from a guy named Arthur Croker, and I looked at the citation that
Unknown Speaker (01:04:02.519)
Alex gives and-
Unknown Speaker (01:04:04.039)
To be determined whether or not Arthur Croker even exists.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:07.719)
He gives a citation to Wired Magazine, this article called Way New Leftists.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:14.079)
It's not in there at all.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:15.920)
But there's another citation to a publication called Mondo 2000, which was a cyberpunk magazine.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:23.960)
And so I looked-
Unknown Speaker (01:04:24.960)
All right, you've intrigued me.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:25.960)
I looked into this a little bit.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:26.960)
I'm going to tell you a fucking awesome story about Mondo 2000.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:30.119)
Well, is it how the place got its name?
Unknown Speaker (01:04:34.840)
It does actually relate to that a little bit, but before I get into that, I'm going to say
Unknown Speaker (01:04:38.599)
Arthur Croker, because I read the Way New Leftists article in Wired Magazine, he's a
Unknown Speaker (01:04:43.380)
Hunter S. Thompson-y kind of guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:45.360)
He speaks with these flourishes of extremism and metaphor and all this stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:50.880)
So you take that quote with a very large grain of salt in terms of what he's actually talking
Unknown Speaker (01:04:55.400)
about.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:56.400)
He sometimes speaks in riddles.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:57.960)
If you read other-
Unknown Speaker (01:04:58.960)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:59.960)
Why not?
Unknown Speaker (01:05:00.960)
If you read other-
Unknown Speaker (01:05:01.960)
Fucking throw that in there.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:02.960)
Fine.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:03.960)
But if you read other interviews of him, you come to the conclusion that like, I like what
Unknown Speaker (01:05:06.880)
this guy is putting down, but I don't believe anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:11.699)
So here we go.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:15.099)
The quote here, this one about these suicidal nihilists, these people at the top of the
Unknown Speaker (01:05:21.719)
digital reality, comes from a San Francisco cyberpunk zine that was run by a very serious
Unknown Speaker (01:05:27.480)
group of drug addicts.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:29.159)
They started the magazine, they called it High Frontiers, then changed the name to Reality
Unknown Speaker (01:05:34.639)
Hackers, finally setting on the name Mondo 2000 in 1989.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:39.199)
Why would that be the one you said along, guys?
Unknown Speaker (01:05:42.480)
Because Reality Hackers, they found that they couldn't get distribution because people thought
Unknown Speaker (01:05:47.840)
that they were like cutting people up or some sort of, their imagery on the covers and stuff
Unknown Speaker (01:05:52.760)
was a little bit extreme and shit like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:54.800)
So the name Reality Hackers, everyone thought it was kind of like-
Unknown Speaker (01:05:57.480)
Oh, so they thought they were hacking up-
Unknown Speaker (01:05:58.480)
They thought it was like a Gore magazine or something like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:01.840)
And so-
Unknown Speaker (01:06:02.840)
Fantastic.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:03.840)
And at the time, this guy who ran it, his name is Noam Deplume, was R U Serious?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:10.719)
Eh?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:11.719)
Fun.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:12.719)
He was watching TV.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:14.079)
No, I get it.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:15.079)
He was watching TV-
Unknown Speaker (01:06:16.079)
I'm going to subtract five points for them.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:17.639)
I didn't say that.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:18.639)
I didn't make that up.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:19.639)
I know, but you pointed it out.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:21.239)
Fuck you.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:22.239)
So he came out, he was watching TV and he's like, everything is 2000 now, all of these
Unknown Speaker (01:06:26.599)
weird names of products are all 2000.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:29.639)
And so Queen Moo, the other person involved-
Unknown Speaker (01:06:32.360)
Another negative five points.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:34.679)
I wasn't there.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:35.679)
I didn't do this.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:40.119)
Queen Moo?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:41.239)
So she came up with-
Unknown Speaker (01:06:42.239)
How's she doing?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:43.239)
She's great.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:44.239)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:45.239)
Is she all right?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:46.239)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:47.239)
How's the kid?
Unknown Speaker (01:06:48.239)
She refuses to give interviews to this day.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:49.239)
Oh, good for her.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:50.239)
Good call, lady.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:51.239)
She came up with Mondo as the beginning to 2000 and there we go.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:53.840)
They were off to the races with the name.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:55.559)
It seems like it should be harder than that, but a fun-
Unknown Speaker (01:06:57.159)
She had a large inheritance that she had gotten and that was what was running the magazine.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:02.079)
So it was kind of her baby to say that sort of thing?
Unknown Speaker (01:07:05.460)
So her inheritance was Mondo, you could say.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:08.920)
Yeah, exactly.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:09.920)
So regarding the nature of the zine-
Unknown Speaker (01:07:10.920)
I'm going to give myself minus five points for that as well.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:12.920)
I appreciate that.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:13.920)
You are correct.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:14.920)
Regarding the nature of the zine-
Unknown Speaker (01:07:15.920)
It's all about fairness.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:16.920)
Quote, in issue number five in 1992, Nagel, who was one of the editors, accidentally transposed
Unknown Speaker (01:07:23.079)
the names of avant garde musicians Glenn Braca and Elliott Sharp on the cover, rendering
Unknown Speaker (01:07:28.440)
them Glenn Sharp and Elliott Branca.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:31.599)
Since Sharp and Branca weren't household names, few readers noticed.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:35.760)
But Mondo obviously owed them and the author of the piece, Mark Deary, an explanation.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:41.239)
Rather than apologize-
Unknown Speaker (01:07:42.239)
Yeah, that'd be like getting oats in a hall backwards.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:44.400)
Rather than apologize, Mondo proclaimed the snafu intentional.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:48.519)
Gracie and Zarkov composed an essay about post-modernism and deliberate art damage.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:55.320)
Or rather, they scribbled notes on a napkin while out having drinks.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:58.880)
The outline was passed around the staff and the concept ended up as a collaborative two-piece
Unknown Speaker (01:08:03.059)
manifesto on art damage called, What Do You Say After Popomo?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:08.280)
Half of the time we were trying to baffle people into thinking we were deep, says Hulk
Unknown Speaker (01:08:11.480)
Trans, and having it be a pop fluff rag at the same time, it was paradise.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:20.039)
That sounds like paradise.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:21.119)
They were fucking around.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:22.119)
That was their game.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:23.319)
That was their game.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:24.359)
Their game was, okay, we got these two names wrong.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:26.960)
Nah.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:27.960)
Instead of saying we got these two names wrong, let's devise an entire philosophy around why
Unknown Speaker (01:08:33.760)
getting these two names wrong was the exact correct thing to do.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:37.760)
Done.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:38.760)
I love them.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:39.760)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:40.760)
Mondo 2000 for 20,000 more years.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:43.039)
Wow.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:44.039)
Fucking high as shit on designer drugs and weird experimental chemical compounds and
Unknown Speaker (01:08:50.680)
shit like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:51.779)
They had no serious pretense.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:53.880)
I love them.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:54.880)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:55.880)
They're amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:56.880)
I want to work for Mondo 2000.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:57.880)
They are.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:58.880)
They actually are.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:59.880)
They just did a Kickstarter and they're coming back, but I don't think either of us are cool
Unknown Speaker (01:09:03.359)
enough.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:04.359)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:05.359)
I think we got the in.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:06.359)
They need a couple of squares to be like, this isn't factual.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:09.720)
They had an editorial policy too, where it's like, if you interview somebody, you can fight
Unknown Speaker (01:09:14.000)
them if you want.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:15.000)
It was just like, I was reading this interview from people who worked there, it was like,
Unknown Speaker (01:09:21.079)
if you go talk to somebody and you don't like what they're saying, you can argue with them.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:25.140)
No other publication would allow you to do something like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:28.079)
This is amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:29.079)
These guys were a bunch of assholes.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:31.960)
They pretended that they were quarterly, but then magazines would never come out.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:35.720)
Of course not.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:36.720)
It would be seven months.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:37.720)
There's no way you could afford to put out that magazine.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:40.880)
It's fucking amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:41.880)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:42.880)
So give me a large inheritance.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:44.279)
I will make you a way better magazine.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:46.260)
So a Mondo party might, this is a quote from that article about their history, a Mondo
Unknown Speaker (01:09:51.260)
party might find a time travel expert being interviewed in one room.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:55.119)
People playing word association games in another.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:57.439)
Six people fucking in the third room.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:59.479)
Others experimenting with weird mental mind stimulation games, groups quietly chatting
Unknown Speaker (01:10:04.380)
in conspiratorial whispers, or Bart Nagel and virtual reality theorist Brenda Laurel
Unknown Speaker (01:10:11.000)
leaping into the air to see if they could do a complete 360 turn without falling down.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:15.920)
Rude pornography or Japanese animation videos flickered on monitors.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:20.159)
Figures performed frottage or on antique sofas.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:23.720)
Frottage?
Unknown Speaker (01:10:24.720)
Frottage.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:25.720)
That's when you put your dick in a day.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:26.720)
No, I know.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:27.720)
That's what I was.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:28.720)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:29.720)
Just double checking.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:30.720)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:31.720)
A journalist from GQ might have been taking a piss on the front lawn.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:34.659)
One creature would trap people for entire evenings and conversations about her, how
Unknown Speaker (01:10:39.359)
Sir Francis Bacon was actually William Shakespeare.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:42.279)
I've heard those conversations before.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:43.800)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:44.800)
It's exactly as fascinating as that party sounds.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:46.960)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:47.960)
It's like, it's look, everyone's fucking high out of their mind.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:51.319)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:52.319)
Some of the magazine and some weird theorists are trying to spin around and make a 360 without
Unknown Speaker (01:10:56.880)
falling down.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:57.880)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:58.880)
They're, they're describing this like this is fucking edgy stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:01.600)
I would give them a loan.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:02.840)
God, this is so boring.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:04.479)
But also this loan, your plan is approved, my friend.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:07.840)
So the guys behind Mondo were really big on just making shit up a quote in 1993.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:12.880)
In 1993, Bart Nagel rattled his peers with an editorial inspired by artist Jeffrey Kuhn's
Unknown Speaker (01:11:19.319)
theory of image appropriation.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:21.880)
Either steal it and manipulate it, wrote Nagel, or use it blatantly under the fair use doctrine.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:27.279)
Nagel practiced what his editorial preached with the cover of issue number 10, in which
Unknown Speaker (01:11:31.720)
he superimposed a photo against a background stolen from the cover of another magazine.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:36.680)
Nagel was immediately savaged in trade journals as the Antichrist of art directors.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:41.800)
He retaliated with an editorial in issue number 11, which is where this Arthur Corker quote
Unknown Speaker (01:11:46.039)
comes from, by the way, about a new technology that works on the DNA level to detect microscopic
Unknown Speaker (01:11:54.079)
recognizable patterns and images.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:56.319)
He asserted that the technology encoded patterns that were invisible to the naked eye, but
Unknown Speaker (01:12:00.319)
detectable no matter how much an image was scanned or used.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:03.920)
He further claimed that in one year hence, all scanners and copy machines would contain
Unknown Speaker (01:12:09.199)
a built-in chip to detect these codes and notify a national computer image bank of every
Unknown Speaker (01:12:14.619)
duplication by modem.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:16.560)
The computer would then automatically debit your visa account.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:19.800)
I tried to make it more and more absurd by saying these scanners would be hooked up by
Unknown Speaker (01:12:23.600)
neural net computers, which could actually detect if you were scanning someone's style.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:28.760)
And then a lot of photographers were actually excited about this.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:32.239)
And that Richard Avedon and Annie Leibovitz had already offered to donate their proceeds
Unknown Speaker (01:12:41.600)
from the style theft to a photo assistance group called We're Creative Cheers.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:45.680)
No!
Unknown Speaker (01:12:46.680)
God damn it!
Unknown Speaker (01:12:48.760)
He just made all that shit up.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:50.119)
Of course he did!
Unknown Speaker (01:12:51.119)
And it caused a huge stir.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:53.239)
Everyone started writing them messages like Annie Leibovitz and this guy Avedon wrote
Unknown Speaker (01:12:57.680)
messages like, are you serious about this?
Unknown Speaker (01:12:59.800)
You fucking came with me?
Unknown Speaker (01:13:01.359)
He was tricking people.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:02.979)
They were tricking everybody.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:04.760)
They were trolling like crazy.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:06.720)
It's amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:07.720)
I love them.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:08.720)
The other thing, I can't remember what the name of the band is and I feel really bad
Unknown Speaker (01:13:12.079)
about this.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:13.079)
It's called Mondo 1999.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:14.640)
There was a band that U2 sued that I can't remember what the exact circumstances of it
Unknown Speaker (01:13:21.880)
are.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:22.880)
It's called U3.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:23.880)
Come on.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:24.880)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:25.880)
So this band, I think actually they were like just a local punkish band or whatever.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:32.600)
And they ripped off some of U2's stuff and their album was actually called U2.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:38.359)
And then The Edge and U2 tried to sue them.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:41.479)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:42.479)
Because they were like, guys, fucking come on.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:45.439)
And they almost destroyed them.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:47.319)
Like aggressive litigation.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:50.140)
And so as Mondo 2000 got really popular, U2 requested to be interviewed by them.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:56.239)
Oh no.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:57.239)
And that was a bad idea!
Unknown Speaker (01:13:59.880)
Bono, fucking Edge, come on guys.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:02.520)
You can't just run into a Mary Trickster's band without getting your ass kicked.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:06.859)
And Are You Serious was friends with the band that got sued by U2.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:11.159)
That can't be real.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:12.279)
So what he did- How is that possible?
Unknown Speaker (01:14:15.079)
What he did was he set up the interview and without The Edge knowing, had the guys from
Unknown Speaker (01:14:22.319)
the band interview him about how they had stolen various elements of the videos they
Unknown Speaker (01:14:27.899)
used on stage at their live performances.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:30.560)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:31.560)
Like basically talking about them doing exactly what they had sued this band for doing.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:36.439)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:37.439)
And then halfway through the interview, he came in and was like, hey, this is the band
Unknown Speaker (01:14:41.079)
that you sued.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:42.079)
He was just like, what the fuck is this anarchy?
Unknown Speaker (01:14:46.279)
This is amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:48.960)
So then Queen Moo, who is the financial runner of it all.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:52.520)
Because of course.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:53.520)
She refused to publish the article or said like, we don't want to do this.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:57.319)
This isn't right.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:58.319)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:59.319)
So are you serious?
Unknown Speaker (01:15:00.319)
Quit.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:01.319)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:02.319)
Because that's definitely what he would quit over.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:03.319)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:04.319)
So he had a whole bunch of trouble and that was sort of the beginning of the end of their
Unknown Speaker (01:15:07.119)
run.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:08.119)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:09.119)
But that they are fucking amazing.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:11.520)
That's delightful.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:12.520)
I love finding stuff like this that I had no idea existed.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:15.319)
They're just like, ah, damn it.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:17.079)
I wish I was hip to that when I was younger.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:18.760)
No shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:19.760)
That would be so much cooler now if I had grown up with that.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:22.699)
But I lived in Missouri.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:24.640)
Anyway.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:25.640)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:26.640)
We're still watching this.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:28.640)
Sorry.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:29.640)
Is that
Unknown Speaker (01:15:56.439)
what you did?
Unknown Speaker (01:15:57.439)
Yes I have.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:02.159)
Has that hurt?
Unknown Speaker (01:16:10.279)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:13.880)
Tord!
Unknown Speaker (01:16:16.920)
Yes!
Unknown Speaker (01:16:21.220)
Once world government is in place, no one will be able to stop the new world order's
Unknown Speaker (01:16:30.180)
plans for global population reduction or those immune to psychological programming.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:36.619)
Hundreds of FEMA camps have already been built throughout the United States in their quest
Unknown Speaker (01:16:43.180)
for population reduction.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:45.460)
So there's a bunch of FEMA camps.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:47.140)
That's not true.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:48.600)
There are FEMA camps.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:49.819)
Yes, I know.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:51.579)
So the proponents of the FEMA camp belief generally base their concerns on House Resolution
Unknown Speaker (01:16:55.819)
645.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:56.819)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:57.819)
There's a bill by the Homeland Security Department establishing emergency centers to house populations
Unknown Speaker (01:17:02.340)
and provide humanitarian aid in the case of natural disasters or emergencies.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:06.319)
If you want to speculate wildly and let paranoia run rampant, you can do that with this.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:10.500)
But the actual text of the resolution and stated intent is something very rational and
Unknown Speaker (01:17:15.460)
benign and something that were there to be a horrible emergency and these didn't exist.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:21.100)
These same dumb ass patriots would cry bloody murder.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:23.859)
Why didn't they provide somewhere for us to all live?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:27.380)
Also the only role that FEMA even has in all this is that the country is broken down into
Unknown Speaker (01:17:31.460)
regions that FEMA covers.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:33.659)
And so there's, you know, because that's the only reasonable way to do it.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:36.779)
Like why would you have a FEMA center in every state when there aren't really as many like
Unknown Speaker (01:17:42.579)
emergency risks?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:45.699)
It's not evenly distributed among states in terms of earthquakes, floods.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:50.659)
There's no floods.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:51.659)
Are you saying that Idaho isn't as important?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:53.300)
No, it's not important.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:54.720)
It's not that it's not important.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:55.720)
Well, then it seems unfair to me.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:57.859)
It's just that fault lines and coasts have a very high...
Unknown Speaker (01:18:01.979)
We need to put all of our hurricane specialists in Idaho.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:05.380)
So the only reality there is to internment camps in America is that of incarcerating
Unknown Speaker (01:18:11.100)
minorities that we've seen to be a threat based on their ethnicity.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:14.579)
The Japanese in World War II and then also the Native Americans in the 1930s at the Trail
Unknown Speaker (01:18:20.859)
of Tears.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:21.859)
Don't remember that.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:22.859)
And then in the 1860s, the Long Walk.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:25.340)
There's a lot of instances...
Unknown Speaker (01:18:26.340)
Can't remember those either.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:27.340)
No, certainly not.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:29.539)
Beyond that, there's only one instance of this, and that's Rex 84, which is short for
Unknown Speaker (01:18:33.699)
Readiness Exercise 1984, which is a plan that was put together by Reagan and Oliver North
Unknown Speaker (01:18:39.140)
and then FEMA Director John Brinkerhoff.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:41.619)
Sounds trustworthy.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:42.619)
The plan called for putting anti-war protesters, civil rights groups, union supporters, and
Unknown Speaker (01:18:48.420)
minority immigrants in camps because of the disruptive effect that they were perceived
Unknown Speaker (01:18:52.579)
to have on the right-leaning political status quo and the larger American capitalist business
Unknown Speaker (01:18:56.939)
interests.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:57.939)
The plan was never put into action, but it's the only example outside of those fucking
Unknown Speaker (01:19:02.460)
racist ones I just brought up that any president has ever put together in terms of an act of
Unknown Speaker (01:19:09.100)
actual plan of putting dissenters in a camp.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:12.539)
And just for keeping score's purposes.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:15.699)
They're targeted to liberal groups.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:17.340)
That one is absolutely also one of the racist ones.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:20.619)
Somewhat.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:21.619)
I mean, there are the minorities and immigrants involved, but it's also about union organizing.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:26.880)
It's also about anti-war activism, which isn't necessarily along racial lines.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:31.420)
No, it's not necessarily along racial lines, but if you get rid of all of those people,
Unknown Speaker (01:19:36.819)
man, what are the people you have left?
Unknown Speaker (01:19:40.659)
But I understand what you're saying, and I agree with you, but if you look at the text
Unknown Speaker (01:19:43.180)
of Rex 84, one of the triggering events that they were talking about is like, who's going
Unknown Speaker (01:19:47.819)
to be mad if we invade South America?
Unknown Speaker (01:19:51.020)
Like that sort of thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:52.020)
I was like, well, those are the people we'll need to round up.
Unknown Speaker (01:19:55.020)
And so it was literally directed at liberals, anti-war people, and then union people have
Unknown Speaker (01:20:01.220)
always been annoying to business interests.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:03.819)
Well, also Reagan.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:06.180)
So it's, you know, it's interesting that there's no documentation, there's nothing concrete
Unknown Speaker (01:20:13.079)
in the world of liberals trying to create these camps or anything like that, especially
Unknown Speaker (01:20:19.300)
in America.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:20.300)
No, in fact, it's almost uniformly and unilaterally the opposite of that, isn't it, Dan?
Unknown Speaker (01:20:24.220)
It seems that way.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:25.220)
Isn't it?
Unknown Speaker (01:20:26.220)
God, maybe we should-
Unknown Speaker (01:20:27.220)
But that's what you get so much mileage out of crying the victim.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:29.159)
Maybe we should do that.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:30.159)
Have we considered rounding up all the white nationalists and just like putting them in
Unknown Speaker (01:20:33.699)
a camp?
Unknown Speaker (01:20:34.699)
I think you're starting to.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:35.699)
I think it's probably a bad idea.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:37.340)
Anyway.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:38.340)
Is it?
Unknown Speaker (01:20:39.340)
Have we considered it though?
Unknown Speaker (01:20:40.500)
These dark builders intend to release a string of man-made bioweapons plagues, each one worse
Unknown Speaker (01:20:46.619)
than the last.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:48.000)
There's no citation for this.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:49.300)
He just says that they're going to do that.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:51.460)
There's literally no reason to believe that that's the case.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:54.140)
While at the same time expanding the police state to enforce an orderly extermination
Unknown Speaker (01:20:58.819)
of the population.
Unknown Speaker (01:20:59.819)
Well, that's good.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:00.819)
All in the name of fighting invisible terrorists.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:02.939)
I would hate it to be chaos.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:06.140)
And the Georgia guides stand today as a cold testament to the elite sacred mission.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:11.939)
Back to Georgia.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:12.939)
Why?
Unknown Speaker (01:21:13.939)
Because Georgia is on my mind.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:16.979)
To have a two-class system where the underclass are forced to live as slaves in highly enclosed
Unknown Speaker (01:21:23.260)
cities.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:24.260)
While the elite enjoy the land of the earth, evolve into super humans with the aid of advanced
Unknown Speaker (01:21:30.039)
implantable technologies.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:32.260)
Live eternal lives.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:33.260)
Weird way to end this one.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:36.260)
This is the promise given to the inner members of the new world order and the agenda of the
Unknown Speaker (01:21:42.420)
Bilderberg group.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:43.420)
Was that what this was about?
Unknown Speaker (01:21:44.420)
I guess.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:45.420)
God damn.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:46.420)
We should have done this in two chunks.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:47.420)
We should have done this never.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:48.420)
This documentary is not good.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:49.420)
Oh shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:21:50.420)
What's this?
Unknown Speaker (01:21:51.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:52.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:53.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:54.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:55.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:56.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:57.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:58.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:21:59.420)
It's still here!
Unknown Speaker (01:22:00.420)
What's this?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:02.420)
It's still going on!
Unknown Speaker (01:22:03.420)
No, you ended it!
Unknown Speaker (01:22:04.420)
You just ended it!
Unknown Speaker (01:22:05.420)
What is this?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:06.420)
What is this?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:07.420)
This is the post-credits sequence.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:10.420)
This is where Nick Fury is going to show up or whatever.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:13.420)
Oh, okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:14.420)
Is Nick Fury going to show up?
Unknown Speaker (01:22:15.420)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:16.420)
To expose the globalist by traveling to Istanbul, Turkey, the site of Bilderberg, 2007.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:21.340)
So he can once again not break in.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:22.979)
This is a power.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:29.539)
Bangin' music, though.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:30.539)
Jim Tucker, thank you for coming on, my friend.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:32.819)
It's always fun.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:34.100)
Jim, tell us what you saw today when you were out at the Ritz-Carlton Bell.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:38.619)
Four stars!
Unknown Speaker (01:22:39.619)
Go home and tell your mother.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:40.619)
We were at the Ritz-Carlton.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:42.619)
It looked like a typical Bilderberg scenario.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:45.380)
They had the armed guards all around the place, they had platoons of cops in formation waiting
Unknown Speaker (01:22:51.420)
for disbursement.
Unknown Speaker (01:22:52.420)
They also had cops all the way around the building and they had all those high-tech
Unknown Speaker (01:22:58.060)
things where every member can hear whatever's spoken in any language instantly translated
Unknown Speaker (01:23:04.619)
to his own language.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:07.340)
What the fuck is he talking about?
Unknown Speaker (01:23:09.020)
Is he just read the Hitchhiker's Guide and thinks the Babelfish is real?
Unknown Speaker (01:23:12.579)
The Babelfish is real.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:13.579)
No, it's not.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:14.579)
The Babelfish is Israel.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:15.579)
Oh, oh, I see what you're saying there.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:18.579)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:19.579)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:20.579)
I did a bunch of research on this because I was fascinated.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:21.579)
I was like, is that possible?
Unknown Speaker (01:23:23.220)
No, he's talking about the things in the United Nations where you see people with the big
Unknown Speaker (01:23:27.140)
things in their ears.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:28.140)
It doesn't work.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:29.140)
No, because there's a person talking into this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:30.340)
I know that.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:31.479)
You know that.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:32.699)
That's what he thinks is happening.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:34.699)
So look at this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:35.699)
Look at this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:36.699)
Look at this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:37.699)
Look at this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:38.699)
I'm looking at this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:39.699)
I'm looking at your hand.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:40.699)
So here's the problem with this.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:41.699)
This technology can never exist with our current, what we have in front of us, because here's
Unknown Speaker (01:23:45.899)
the problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:46.899)
Too many languages sound fucking similar as shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:49.539)
There's cognates that exist.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:51.500)
There's false cognates, words that sound very similar but aren't the same.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:55.420)
There are like bear, bear, and bear.
Unknown Speaker (01:23:57.539)
What are you going to do with that?
Unknown Speaker (01:23:58.539)
What are you going to do with that with a weird translator?
Unknown Speaker (01:24:00.659)
Get context clues?
Unknown Speaker (01:24:01.659)
Now you need artificial intelligence.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:03.060)
You're getting aggressive at me.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:04.300)
I'm sorry.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:05.300)
I have not started a universal translation technology yet, Dan.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:08.899)
So the other problem that it comes down to is idioms.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:13.140)
You're never going to be able to translate idioms.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:15.340)
So you have like this weird...
Unknown Speaker (01:24:16.939)
You can translate idioms as easy as a bear can go outside and pee on your mom's face.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:21.180)
See, the CFR is going to have trouble with that.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:25.100)
I get you.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:26.100)
They're going to have trouble with that.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:28.579)
So I looked into this and it's really fascinating because there's a couple of startups that
Unknown Speaker (01:24:32.699)
exist out there that are trying to make this technology real.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:37.100)
I'm sure none of them have the name Babbel anywhere near there.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:40.539)
Actually, I don't think they do.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:42.060)
Oh, shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:43.060)
The one that I watched a video of, I actually don't have the name here and they don't fucking
Unknown Speaker (01:24:47.100)
deserve a plug because I think they're a scam, quite frankly, and even if they're not, I
Unknown Speaker (01:24:50.380)
don't support what they do.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:51.859)
So what it is is like this bizarre technology, it's a handheld device.
Unknown Speaker (01:24:56.619)
And so let's say you're in Japan, you're like, where is a karaoke bar?
Unknown Speaker (01:25:03.060)
And then you hold it up to somebody and it feeds back where is a karaoke bar in Japanese
Unknown Speaker (01:25:09.140)
to them.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:10.140)
And it's a whole video of Japanese people being freaked out by this machine talking
Unknown Speaker (01:25:15.140)
to them because understandably, it's like, that's a little weird.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:19.100)
But here's the problem, the video doesn't show any moments of like them responding or
Unknown Speaker (01:25:25.500)
because it doesn't translate back.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:27.539)
It doesn't translate the other way.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:29.060)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:30.060)
What's the fucking point of it?
Unknown Speaker (01:25:31.380)
It doesn't work both ways.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:32.539)
That doesn't make any sense.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:34.180)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:35.180)
But it's just so you can be heard, not you have to listen to their fucking Japanese bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:42.180)
It's such nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:43.779)
It's a disgraceful way to pretend you're immersing into a world while disrespecting it while
Unknown Speaker (01:25:49.859)
being in it.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:50.859)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:51.859)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:52.859)
I think it actually is, I think it's denigrating to the idea of travel.
Unknown Speaker (01:25:58.180)
But also a lot of these businesses that are like, not just this one, I found a bunch of
Unknown Speaker (01:26:02.380)
them.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:03.380)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:04.380)
There's a bunch of apps and like startups that are trying to work this out.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:06.979)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:07.979)
None of them work.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:08.979)
No, it's a badass idea.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:09.979)
Crowdfunded and as we all know, most ideas on crowdfunding, some of them aren't real.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:19.699)
Some of them are like, here's an idea, give me money and then you never get the product.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:23.020)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:24.020)
So there's a bunch of stuff like that, that like sound too good to be true.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:26.939)
Anyway, what Jim Tucker is describing doesn't exist.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:30.060)
He's making this up.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:31.060)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:32.060)
And he's, but it might be the same hat.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:34.500)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:35.500)
It is definitely the same hat.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:36.500)
Some of the lines were red earlier, but it might've been the light.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:40.579)
So they can keep up with it.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:54.979)
Really great.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:55.979)
Dayna mod to this guys.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:56.979)
I'm done with my notes.
Unknown Speaker (01:26:57.979)
Oh, so we're just going to, are we just going to watch the end of this is fucking hilarious.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:03.060)
I'm done with my notes except to say Jim Tucker can fuck himself.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:10.939)
Rest in peace.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:11.939)
Rest in power.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:12.939)
Tell Alex I would have cut a lot of this.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:27.939)
That was an old man not understanding his language.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:30.939)
He had that fucking weird machine.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:34.220)
This is an old man walking across the street poorly, proving nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:39.819)
Is Bilderberg meeting here this weekend?
Unknown Speaker (01:27:42.819)
You can look this way.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:46.420)
We had my two personal cops following me today.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:50.039)
I was not aware of it cause my nose is always sticking to a camera.
Unknown Speaker (01:27:53.579)
My jaws are always flapping, but the TV crew said, those guys are going to follow you.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:04.300)
Their car follows out to the hotel.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:09.539)
Then they identified the two cops in plain clothes, not, not businesses, but sports shirts
Unknown Speaker (01:28:15.140)
and so forth.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:17.859)
I would follow him around just to fuck around.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:22.100)
Let's do that now.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:23.100)
I want to photograph him.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:24.100)
You are our own.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:25.100)
He's not going anywhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:26.100)
It makes our job easier.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:27.100)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:28.100)
Let's go hang out at his group.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:29.100)
Very likely Bilderberg boys.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:38.100)
John Elkin, owner of Fiat and a fellow Bilderberger thought that they could take a stroll off
Unknown Speaker (01:28:43.500)
the grounds without being noticed by the commoners.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:46.659)
Was that Garfunkel?
Unknown Speaker (01:28:49.619)
Could be.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:54.779)
This Bilderberg attendee sneered at our camera.
Unknown Speaker (01:28:57.859)
That's not a sneer.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:03.060)
This carload of kingpins gave the media a murderous look and seemed shocked that they
Unknown Speaker (01:29:08.260)
would dare point a camera in their direction.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:11.500)
That's a carload.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:12.500)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:13.500)
It's three.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:15.739)
Anything more than two is a carload.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:17.539)
Yeah, you got them guys.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:25.859)
They just drove away.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:27.439)
What a boring fucking 2007 the Bilderberg group received the heaviest global coverage
Unknown Speaker (01:29:32.619)
in its history.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:35.060)
Jim Tucker witnessed press conferences attended by hundreds of members of the media and a
Unknown Speaker (01:29:39.539)
new generation of info warriors.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:42.060)
Where are those?
Unknown Speaker (01:29:43.260)
They are not in the documentary or tracking the elite no matter where they are.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:47.500)
Wait.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:48.500)
There's pork raisins.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:49.500)
Hooray.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:50.500)
He's remaining.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:51.500)
Now, Jim, my governor, Rick Perry, it's in the front of the Dallas Morning News.
Unknown Speaker (01:29:57.899)
The headline reads, Texas Governor Rick Perry to attend Bilderberg.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:03.220)
What does it mean to have the governor of Texas in the Dallas Morning News just admitting
Unknown Speaker (01:30:07.300)
he's going to Bilderberg group?
Unknown Speaker (01:30:10.260)
That means he's a potential president even as the obscure governor of Arkansas, Bill
Unknown Speaker (01:30:15.220)
Clinton, lost his virginity at the Bilderberg meeting in Baden-Baden, Germany in 1991, and
Unknown Speaker (01:30:21.539)
he's elected president the following year.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:23.779)
Is that when he lost his virginity?
Unknown Speaker (01:30:24.779)
If he goes nowhere in a run-through of the White House in the years ahead, they'll drop
Unknown Speaker (01:30:29.460)
him like an old shoe.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:31.180)
They do that often, but officially, Bilderberg considers Governor Rick Perry a potential
Unknown Speaker (01:30:39.180)
president of the United States.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:40.899)
Yes, it's a violation of the Logan Act for which the White, Bill Clinton's White House
Unknown Speaker (01:30:47.699)
was fined $300,000, which means the taxpayers paid it.
Unknown Speaker (01:30:56.340)
When Perry returned to Texas from Istanbul, we were determined to hold him accountable
Unknown Speaker (01:31:01.340)
for his treasonous actions.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:02.659)
That's his house.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:05.659)
It might be the state house, who cares?
Unknown Speaker (01:31:11.060)
Shocked this is still going.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:12.579)
This end is so funny.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:14.180)
If you had the end, you would already have ended it by now.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:17.779)
This is so funny to me.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:21.779)
We don't want our roads, our water, our power plants, our entire infrastructure turned over
Unknown Speaker (01:31:30.779)
to the New World Order, and we tell you now the people are rising up and learning what
Unknown Speaker (01:31:36.300)
you're doing, and they're angry, and they're tired of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:40.899)
Stop enslaving us.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:42.899)
Stop setting up tyranny.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:44.899)
Stop going along with the New World Order plan if you've got any soul left, Rick Perry.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:49.899)
What is this?
Unknown Speaker (01:31:50.899)
What is this?
Unknown Speaker (01:31:51.899)
Turn the warning?
Unknown Speaker (01:31:52.899)
It's probably just when it's dark enough to look like night.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:55.899)
I'm telling you, we're not going to put up with it.
Unknown Speaker (01:31:58.899)
We want to live in the Republic.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:00.899)
We shall prevail.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:02.899)
Death to the New World Order.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:06.899)
Ba-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:08.899)
Ba-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:10.899)
Ba-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:12.899)
Ba-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:14.899)
So, real quick.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:16.899)
The whole lead up was right.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:19.899)
Also, this was edited by Rob Jacobson.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:21.899)
Rob, you should never work again.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:23.899)
Ever.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:24.899)
Rob Jacobson has since left Infowars and has called Alex Jones a sellout and a shill.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:28.899)
Yeah, please don't ever.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:30.899)
He has abandoned the Infowars hold.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:32.899)
Just abandon filmmaking.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:34.899)
Yeah, because this is terrible.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:36.899)
But the real true comedy of the end of that is, first of all, just the cut to Alex alone with a bullhorn.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:43.899)
Fucking hilarious.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:45.899)
But then, with the context that we have from 2018 now, it's even more funny.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:49.899)
Oh, isn't it Perry?
Unknown Speaker (01:32:52.899)
I love him being Trump's Secretary of Energy.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:55.899)
I support the hell out of him.
Unknown Speaker (01:32:57.899)
He's great. What happened there?
Unknown Speaker (01:32:58.899)
Rick Perry, we will not stand for you going to Bilderberg and destroying our sovereignty.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:02.899)
Uh-uh.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:03.899)
You piece of shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:04.899)
Nope. Never. Never gonna happen.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:05.899)
God damn it.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:06.899)
Uh-uh.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:07.899)
So stupid.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:08.899)
None of this means anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:10.899)
No one cares.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:12.899)
Nothing is real.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:14.899)
There are no sides.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:16.899)
There is only fucking whatever Alex Jones wants or does not want at any given point in time.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:21.899)
Nothing is meaningful. Everything is dead.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:24.899)
But shout out to Graham Reynolds.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:25.899)
We're all fucking...
Unknown Speaker (01:33:26.899)
Shout out to Graham Reynolds for the...
Unknown Speaker (01:33:27.899)
Oh, Graham Reynolds.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:29.899)
Crush it.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:30.899)
As far as sound design goes, I would put this up there.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:33.899)
Strong stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:34.899)
Strong stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:35.899)
We nominate you for an Oscar?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:37.899)
Oscar?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:38.899)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:39.899)
Sure.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:41.899)
Golden Globe.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:42.899)
Maybe.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:43.899)
No idea who those guys are.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:45.899)
Michael McWhirter and Glenn Dill?
Unknown Speaker (01:33:47.899)
Sounds right.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:48.899)
Never heard of them.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:50.899)
Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:51.899)
I know him.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:52.899)
Rob Jacobson.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:53.899)
Go on.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:54.899)
Graham.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:55.899)
Killing it.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:56.899)
Wait.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:57.899)
Wait.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:58.899)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:33:59.899)
Now that I find out that Rob has mixed and mastered the audio for this, I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:01.899)
Now I'm back on board.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:02.899)
The audio production on this is great.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:04.899)
I'm telling you.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:05.899)
Rob Jacobson's great except for...
Unknown Speaker (01:34:07.899)
Editing.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:08.899)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:09.899)
Should not be editing.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:10.899)
But it's Alex's fault.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:11.899)
It's all Alex's fault.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:15.899)
Additional music.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:16.899)
Rob Jacobson.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:17.899)
Hold on.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:18.899)
It's D-S-C-H.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:20.899)
Or a...
Unknown Speaker (01:34:21.899)
Doosh.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:22.899)
Doosh.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:23.899)
Doosh.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:24.899)
Also voiceover recorded and edited by Rob.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:26.899)
That's not great.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:27.899)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:28.899)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:29.899)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:30.899)
That's no good.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:31.899)
Camera operators.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:32.899)
A lot of them.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:33.899)
Rob was of course there as well.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:35.899)
Still photography.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:36.899)
Daniel Estelin.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:37.899)
Really?
Unknown Speaker (01:34:38.899)
Interviewer of...
Unknown Speaker (01:34:39.899)
Oh, they took some of his stills.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:41.899)
They took some of his stills.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:42.899)
I got it.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:48.899)
Michael Kaufman did some research.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:50.899)
That's great.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:51.899)
I'd love to see this.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:52.899)
Violet Jones.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:53.899)
Who's that?
Unknown Speaker (01:34:54.899)
That is his ex-wife Kelly.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:55.899)
Oh, hey Violet.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:56.899)
She goes by the name Violet sometimes.
Unknown Speaker (01:34:58.899)
That might come up later.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:00.899)
How you doing?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:06.899)
Special thanks to Jim Tucker, Dr. Michael Kaufman, Mike McWhirter, Glenn Dill, Paul
Unknown Speaker (01:35:11.899)
Dornone, David Dees, Mike Nelson, Rob Jacob.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:15.899)
Wait, Mike Nelson of MSD3K?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:17.899)
Yeah, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:18.899)
I thought that said Dan Breeze for a second.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:20.899)
I got very confused.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:21.899)
Also the Alamo Drafthouse.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:23.899)
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:24.899)
But they've been supporting sexual assault for a long time now.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:27.899)
Blueprint for global enslavement.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:34.899)
Jordan, we did it.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:44.899)
Jordan, you're never going to believe this.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:47.899)
We are about to finish the clock in time.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:49.899)
Part one of Endgame.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:53.899)
The clock in time right now.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:55.899)
What are we at?
Unknown Speaker (01:35:56.899)
Nine hours, 11 minutes.
Unknown Speaker (01:35:57.899)
Jesus Christ.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:01.899)
It's only fitting.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:02.899)
You know, we didn't get paid for this, right?
Unknown Speaker (01:36:04.899)
You know that, right?
Unknown Speaker (01:36:05.899)
We got paid in our policy wonks, love, and the donations.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:08.899)
We support it very much and we thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:11.899)
This has been brutal and very painful.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:14.899)
And most of it, honestly, the pain on my end has been for you.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:20.899)
I feel mostly guilty about making you do this.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:24.899)
Because for me, I could sit here and just do a voiceover of, hey, this is a lie.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:31.899)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:32.899)
Guiltlessly.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:33.899)
Tally up the scores here.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:35.899)
I think you won because you're kind of biased.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:37.899)
0, 10, 5.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:40.899)
Okay, you got 10.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:42.899)
That's not great.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:45.899)
I think I deserve a few extra points so far.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:47.899)
Oh, no, I did.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:48.899)
15.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:49.899)
All right, I won.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:50.899)
At least it was close.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:51.899)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:52.899)
So that means that I get to absolve you from any guilt of...
Unknown Speaker (01:36:56.899)
Oh, that's your prize?
Unknown Speaker (01:36:57.899)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:58.899)
I got 15 points.
Unknown Speaker (01:36:59.899)
You got 10 points.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:00.899)
Very nice.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:01.899)
You got a lot of wrong references, so I just...
Unknown Speaker (01:37:04.899)
Some of them sucked.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:05.899)
Anyway...
Unknown Speaker (01:37:06.899)
I'm just glad both of us know something.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:08.899)
Like, you knew all of the facts and bada bada bada bada.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:13.899)
And how to read paragraphs of shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:16.899)
I knew how to turn Gerald Maguire into a Jerry Maguire reference immediately.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:21.899)
And that, I feel like, is our two big contributions to the show.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:25.899)
That might be our new intro.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:27.899)
I know a bunch of facts, you know how to turn Gerald into Jerry.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:33.899)
That's exactly what we bring to the table, Dan.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:38.899)
You nailed it.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:39.899)
Nine hours in at 1.30 in the morning, I cannot get my hair to fucking agree with me at all.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:45.899)
And now that I have to look at it in the fucking camera, I'm furious.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:49.899)
Jordan, we got to wrap this up.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:51.899)
Oh, do we?
Unknown Speaker (01:37:52.899)
Yeah, we do.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:53.899)
Oh, I feel like we live here now.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:54.899)
Oh, God damn.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:56.899)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:57.899)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (01:37:58.899)
Do you have any...
Unknown Speaker (01:37:59.899)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:00.899)
Jordan, do you have any closing words about Endgame?
Unknown Speaker (01:38:02.899)
Because I think I get what your take on it is.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:08.899)
And that is that it really amounted to nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:14.899)
We just did, like, nine and a half hours when this is over, I guess, of nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:20.899)
There was nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:21.899)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:22.899)
You learned nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:23.899)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:24.899)
I disagree.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:25.899)
Not weirdly enough.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:26.899)
You learned about Mondo 2000.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:28.899)
No, that was dope.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:31.899)
No, I think more what I took away from it...
Unknown Speaker (01:38:35.899)
Of course, it's an inexplicable documentary.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:38.899)
Why it exists is bananas.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:40.899)
That it exists is crazy.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:42.899)
That it exists the way it does is even more insane to me.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:46.899)
Because it doesn't have a through line.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:49.899)
It is narratively so inconsistent.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:53.899)
It doesn't make any sense.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:54.899)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:55.899)
But it's all about the globalists.
Unknown Speaker (01:38:56.899)
Like, if you just have, like, a guy under a desk going...
Unknown Speaker (01:39:03.899)
Between any clip of anybody saying anything and you've got the Endgame documentary.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:08.899)
Do a fucking hour on the roads, you know?
Unknown Speaker (01:39:11.899)
Right!
Unknown Speaker (01:39:12.899)
Just do that.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:13.899)
You could do an hour on the road!
Unknown Speaker (01:39:15.899)
I'm sure he could.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:16.899)
You really could.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:17.899)
And that's it, because that's a really interesting story.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:19.899)
That story has a start, it has a finish, it has a middle, and then you can have a narrative
Unknown Speaker (01:39:23.899)
end point where they do or they don't build it.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:26.899)
And if they don't build it, then you get that whole thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:28.899)
Like, you start where, okay, well, we need this because of all the NAFTA stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:32.899)
So you build this whole story and then you get to them building it.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:35.899)
And you're like, well, the bids came down and then this foreign company.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:39.899)
And that throws a wrench in the whole thing, because now how do you feel about it?
Unknown Speaker (01:39:42.899)
Before you wanted all those roads to be there, but now this foreign company's trying to own it.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:46.899)
So now you have this conversation there and that's a lot of drama, that's a lot of tension.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:49.899)
And then eventually you get to the point where, well, now it's come for a vote.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:52.899)
So somebody wins and somebody loses and we got to figure out what to do there.
Unknown Speaker (01:39:55.899)
And then they won or they lost and that's the end, congratulations, that's a documentary.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:00.899)
And instead this documentary was like, hey, you remember how rich people and then roads
Unknown Speaker (01:40:05.899)
and then watch out for disease.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:07.899)
And then there's a guy in China, Mondo 2000, and everybody's having a great old time.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:13.899)
Quotes aren't real.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:15.899)
By the way, fuck you, Rick Perry.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:19.899)
What was the point of this movie?
Unknown Speaker (01:40:22.899)
Nothing. There's nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:24.899)
The only point of it is to exist as a time capsule of what Alex Jones put out as the foundation of his career in 2007.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:35.899)
That now 11 years later we can look back and be like, you've betrayed literally everything you think you're about.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:41.899)
You have no moral center.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:43.899)
None.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:44.899)
There is absolutely nothing that you don't contradict on a fucking daily basis.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:48.899)
Nothing is real.
Unknown Speaker (01:40:49.899)
And even though, even that being said, I mean, my big takeaway is that through doing the research of this,
Unknown Speaker (01:41:00.899)
of course I expected to find stuff about the foster kids and stuff like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:05.899)
Right, right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:07.899)
I expected that and I expected him to lie about X, Y, and Z different thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:11.899)
What I didn't expect, what I could never have predicted when I started doing this research was that he wouldn't cover his basis.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:21.899)
I never would have expected it would all be Encarta and site reference here.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:26.899)
Like, I never thought that the bibliography would be so bare.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:29.899)
You have said that to me 15 times at least and I still lose my shit every time you say the word Encarta.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:37.899)
It's absolutely crazy to me that this documentary exists, and documentary again in quotes, it exists.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:46.899)
It's been viewed by millions of people.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:48.899)
I'm against that.
Unknown Speaker (01:41:49.899)
A bunch of people believe what he's saying and none of them have ever checked and looked at the bibliography and been like, that's a problem.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:00.899)
That is not, that is not an acceptable list of sources.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:04.899)
Because everyone who's watching it assumes like, oh, he can back this up.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:09.899)
No, he can't.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:10.899)
Of course not.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:11.899)
There's nothing there.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:12.899)
This is all magic.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:13.899)
It's all assertions.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:14.899)
It's all just nonsense claims.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:16.899)
Alex Jones' documentary Endgame, and I assume most of his other endgame, uh, endgames.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:21.899)
If you are a policy wonk and would like to donate a thousand million more dollars for us to do another documentary, please keep it.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:31.899)
Do not give your money anywhere near Dan.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:34.899)
He'll make me do this again.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:35.899)
Please let me out.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:36.899)
I'm blinking twice.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:37.899)
The Obama deception coming next.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:38.899)
I'm blinking twice.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:39.899)
Please, somebody help me.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:40.899)
Get me out of here.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:41.899)
What, what, what, what I'm, what I'm saying is, um, I, I never, I never, uh, would have imagined, and none of these people who listen, who listen to it would have, oh, here's the point I was trying to make.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:53.899)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:42:54.899)
This is Daniel Estelin's book that he made about the Bilderberg group where he cites as a source this guy who talks to aliens and is part of the Pleiadian earth defense force and all that shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:04.899)
And he's taking his word about whether or not Prince Barnard is a Nazi and not mentioning, also this guy who writes a bunch of books about aliens and shit like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:13.899)
Right, right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:14.899)
That's the small scale version of Alex Jones and his problem with sourcing.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:18.899)
Like, all of this is just things he's claiming, it's all being asserted, and it has no foundation in reality.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:25.899)
Except for the stuff that is about, like, eugenics being fucked up, or it is a mess that a lot of our history intersects with Nazis.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:36.899)
Like, that stuff is true, but no one's hiding that.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:41.899)
It's uncomfortable to talk about, so maybe people don't bring it up all the time, but mainstream sources exist where you can find all of that information.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:49.899)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:43:50.899)
So, what I'm saying is, fuck Alex Jones. I mean, like, legitimately, I have spent, I would say, a hundred hours probably researching this documentary.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:04.899)
Yes, yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:05.899)
And now nine plus recording this.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:09.899)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:10.899)
So, officially, you have been paid ninety-one cents on the dollar.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:14.899)
Maybe. Maybe that.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:16.899)
Because I'm low-balling in terms of the research stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:20.899)
And it's valuable to me because of all of the side stuff I've learned.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:25.899)
I value that I've learned a lot of these statistics about, like, foster children stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:30.899)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:31.899)
I already kind of knew that in my head.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:32.899)
We all knew that that was an issue, but you fucking codified it in a way that hurts.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:36.899)
But now to get a better picture of it, or, you know what, I didn't know a whole lot about Serbia.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:41.899)
I didn't know a lot about the 1990s Serbia situation, and I didn't really know about the beginning of World War I.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:47.899)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:48.899)
So, to have an excuse to research that stuff is really valuable to me, and I appreciate that.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:52.899)
Yeah, that's cool.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:53.899)
And so, Alex, I appreciate you affording me that opportunity to do that research.
Unknown Speaker (01:44:58.899)
Now is not the time to be magnanimous.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:00.899)
But, fuck you. You lie about everything, and like we talked about six hours ago, it's clearly intentional.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:10.899)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:11.899)
There is no way that this is an accident.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:13.899)
There's no way that if you are making a documentary where you use a fake quote by Hitler, or you use a fake quote by David Rockefeller,
Unknown Speaker (01:45:21.899)
there's no way it makes it to the final cut of your documentary with the citation, uh, fill this in later.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:28.899)
There's no fucking way that passes muster for you making a documentary unless you're like,
Unknown Speaker (01:45:33.899)
I know I can't prove this, no one's gonna check on it.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:36.899)
The same way that Ron Paul, there's no way that he didn't write that racist shit in his fucking newsletters.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:42.899)
And that's the point I've been trying to get to.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:45.899)
Bring him back to the bin! Fuck Ron Paul!
Unknown Speaker (01:45:47.899)
Yeah, I agree.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:48.899)
Fuck Ron Paul!
Unknown Speaker (01:45:49.899)
Anyway, this is tough to sum up, but there's a lot of feelings that I have.
Unknown Speaker (01:45:52.899)
I think the thing that I, that for me like really fucking hammered at home, just like you were talking about.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:03.899)
His fakeness, or?
Unknown Speaker (01:46:04.899)
Just like you were talking about.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:06.899)
The conversation of, is he stupid, or is he doing this deliberately and lying about it?
Unknown Speaker (01:46:11.899)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:12.899)
If you're stupid, you can get away with putting this documentary up there.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:17.899)
You're dumb.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:19.899)
If you are putting quotes on screen, hanging them as like, this is a big fucking deal,
Unknown Speaker (01:46:28.899)
knowing full well these were not said by anybody related to what's going on here,
Unknown Speaker (01:46:33.899)
then that goes over from being you're dumb to being this is on purpose.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:37.899)
Not least of which, because guess what?
Unknown Speaker (01:46:39.899)
There wasn't a fucking release date on this.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:42.899)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:43.899)
There wasn't a deadline.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:44.899)
This wasn't like, oh we've got 250 million dollars of studio money built into this thing,
Unknown Speaker (01:46:49.899)
we gotta get this out the door by fucking spring of 2018.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:53.899)
No, that's not how this is working.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:55.899)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:56.899)
This is these assholes.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:57.899)
You might be wrong about that.
Unknown Speaker (01:46:58.899)
This might have been part of one of his money bombs or something like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:01.899)
There might have been something where he actually did have some artificial pressure to put it out,
Unknown Speaker (01:47:06.899)
but that's still artificial pressure.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:08.899)
I still don't care.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:09.899)
Google.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:10.899)
Google.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:11.899)
Google a quote.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:12.899)
That could have been helpful.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:13.899)
That did exist in 2007.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:15.899)
First, advice to anybody making a documentary or anybody quoting anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:21.899)
Wait, can I give my advice first?
Unknown Speaker (01:47:22.899)
Anybody quoting anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:23.899)
Try.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:25.899)
That's my basic piece of advice.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:27.899)
I think my larger problem is this.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:30.899)
A lot of people tried on this and not all of them did.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:34.899)
That may be our biggest issue.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:35.899)
I think whoever came up with tried the rest of them fucked it up.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:39.899)
So much.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:41.899)
Anyway, Jordan, more to the point.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:43.899)
You have to try to lie about quotes that badly.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:45.899)
Oh, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:46.899)
You have to be working on it.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:47.899)
It's intention.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:49.899)
But more than anything else, I appreciate you and I thank you so much for doing this.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:54.899)
I know I dragged you into it to some extent.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:56.899)
I mean the entire show, really, but also this.
Unknown Speaker (01:47:59.899)
What, am I going to jump out now?
Unknown Speaker (01:48:01.899)
This is a thing where-
Unknown Speaker (01:48:02.899)
Is now the time where I jump ship?
Unknown Speaker (01:48:05.899)
This is probably, it'll probably go down in history as a classic example of asking too much.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:12.899)
And I appreciate you ordering pizza.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:15.899)
Stay tuned for our next episode.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:17.899)
Dan kills Jordan with his fucking computer screen.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:21.899)
Stay tuned for next episode.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:22.899)
It's going to be called Dan and Jordan Don't Record for a Week.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:30.899)
Oh my God.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:32.899)
Stay tuned for your next episode.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:34.899)
This episode continues because Jordan doesn't know how to edit and killed Dan.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:38.899)
Stay tuned for our next episode just...
Unknown Speaker (01:48:42.899)
Repeating over and over again for two hours.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:45.899)
We'll put a lot of scare quotes up there.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:47.899)
Stay tuned for our next episode, an interview with Jim Tucker from The Grave.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:54.899)
He made up quotes about Bilderberg, so I'll make quotes about him.
Unknown Speaker (01:48:58.899)
Stay tuned for our next episode, The Only Man Who Can Replace Dan Friesen.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:03.899)
That's right, in studio we have Alex Jones.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:07.899)
How's it going everybody?
Unknown Speaker (01:49:08.899)
Hey everybody, I'm an idiot.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:10.899)
I admit it.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:12.899)
Great episode.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:14.899)
So Jordan, we've come to the end of nine hours of this bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:19.899)
Have we? I didn't notice. How long was it?
Unknown Speaker (01:49:21.899)
We're about nine and a half right now.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:24.899)
It only seems fair since you...
Unknown Speaker (01:49:28.899)
I think you took this the hardest.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:30.899)
No, no, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:31.899)
Dan, everybody, before you self-deprecate any further...
Unknown Speaker (01:49:37.899)
No, no, I'm saying emotionally.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:39.899)
I had a tough time there around hour seven and a half, but I came out of it.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:45.899)
But that was a low point for me.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:47.899)
I'm just saying that to me, the only person that I pity is not me, the listener.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:52.899)
Oh, I pity the listener.
Unknown Speaker (01:49:54.899)
Or you, Dan, who does the research and all this stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:01.899)
I pity you, Dan, the editor.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:04.899)
You poor, poor bastard.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:06.899)
I had a lot of work ahead of me.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:07.899)
You're going to spend a lot of time on this and I am so sorry for you.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:10.899)
Thankfully I'll be fucking hungover as shit tomorrow as I do it.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:13.899)
I love you desperately.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:14.899)
Love you too.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:15.899)
But before we get out of here, because we've got to close this up,
Unknown Speaker (01:50:19.899)
I must ask who, from all of the weirdo characters in this documentary,
Unknown Speaker (01:50:26.899)
would you like to choose to tell them to go fuck themselves?
Unknown Speaker (01:50:30.899)
Now let me run you down.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:31.899)
There's so many goddamn...
Unknown Speaker (01:50:33.899)
Let me run you down with some possibilities.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:35.899)
I want to say other names, but right now all in my head is Smedley Butler.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:39.899)
He's a great guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:41.899)
His name is just so crazy.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:43.899)
Let me run you down some names.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:44.899)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:45.899)
Jim Tucker.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:47.899)
Daniel Estelan.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:49.899)
Great ponytail.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:51.899)
Michael Kaufman.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:52.899)
Michael Kaufman, he's a piece of shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:54.899)
Alex Jones.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:56.899)
Oh, well, of course.
Unknown Speaker (01:50:57.899)
That other guy in Canada.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:03.899)
Wait, the kid or the older guy?
Unknown Speaker (01:51:05.899)
Well, there's the older guy, then the kid.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:06.899)
What about the older guy who is really benign?
Unknown Speaker (01:51:09.899)
The security guard in Canada.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:12.899)
The security guard seemed like a cool dude.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:14.899)
He seemed fine.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:15.899)
He seemed like he was having a rough day with this Alex Jones asshole fucking up his day.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:21.899)
What else you got?
Unknown Speaker (01:51:22.899)
I got Smedley Butler in my head again.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:24.899)
I know!
Unknown Speaker (01:51:25.899)
I think it's because you brought him up.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:26.899)
You can't get him out.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:27.899)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:28.899)
Once you got the Smed, man, you're going to be dead.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:31.899)
I'd like to add you to the list of frontrunners.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:34.899)
That would be negative five.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:36.899)
I'm negative five right now.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:38.899)
Now it's a tie.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:40.899)
So, I guess, let's say your choices are Jim Tucker, Daniel Estelin, and Michael Kaufman.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:46.899)
Alright.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:47.899)
Because Alex Jones is too obvious a choice.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:49.899)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:51.899)
Well, then I'm going to have to go with Michael Kaufman.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:54.899)
That piece of shit can go fuck himself.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:56.899)
I agree.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:57.899)
Fuck that guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:51:58.899)
Thank you all for listening.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:00.899)
Sorry.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:01.899)
Andy in Kansas.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:02.899)
You're on the air.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:03.899)
Thanks for holding.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:04.899)
Hello, Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:05.899)
I'm a first time caller.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:06.899)
I'm a huge fan.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:07.899)
I love your work.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:08.899)
I love you.
Unknown Speaker (01:52:09.899)
I love you.
