Full Transcript
The SAVE Act has passed the House. This is the voter ID bill. And strangely, every Democrat opposes it, despite the fact the polls show that around 70 to 80 percent of Democrats are in favor of voter ID. And literally any sane, rational person thinks if you're going to vote, you should have an ID to prove it. But for some reason, it's only the Republicans who really want this. Again, despite the fact that the voter base across the board agrees you need it. So I have a question for everybody. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think. Why do Democrats not want to have voter ID? Well, the reason they're giving is that it would ban women from voting. Guys, you've already convinced me we need voter ID. You don't need to sell me any more. I'm kidding. But that's their argument. Democrats are arguing that this would block women from voting. If that were true, conservatives would vote twice as hard, and they'd rally substantially more. I'm kidding again. Calm down. It's not correct. It's a nonsense argument. They're saying because you need an ID to vote, this means women who are still using their maiden names but have legally changed it can't vote. And let me just tell you, it's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Anybody who's married, no, that's also very stupid. And, yeah, whatever. So we're talking about that. Plus, we've got crazy news. Mexican cartel drone incursion near El Paso shutting down the airport. Some conflicting reporting where CBS is I think it was CBS reporting that it was actually a balloon. But we've got still more reporting from credible sources that know this is a Mexican cartel drone incursion shutting things down. So we're going to talk about that. And then we've got Joe Rogan's reaction to the Epstein email files where he was invited to meet Epstein. One of his guests was trying to get Amin Epstein, and Rogan was like, what? Are you nuts? And he's talking about it, so it's actually pretty interesting. We'll get into all that stuff. Before we do, my friends, we've got a great sponsor for you. It is Cove Pure.

Good to be back in the saddle here at TimCast. Indeed. After that smashing halftime show you guys put on. Well, thank you. I mean, it was, you know, it was something that was clearly inspired by Charlie. There's no question about it. And, look, I may have had sort of the tweet that started the ball rolling on all this. Clearly team effort, Erica getting behind it and saying let's do this and taking a risk, taking a gamble, making a huge bet like that. And, look, we knew it would be big. We had no idea it would be this big. Like $30 million at this point or more? We're looking all in with all of our partners beyond streaming, beyond YouTube, possibly $40, $50. Woo-wee. So you know what's amazing about that is this means advertisers are going to take a look. And it is insane that the NFL decided to create a market opportunity for competition on the Super Bowl. That's what's crazy. Let's save it for the show. Yeah, yeah. A lot to talk about. But amazing, amazing. Thank you. No, it was – I mean, we thought it would – I thought it would do well. I had no idea we'd have numbers like this. Super cool. No. I was – me neither. I was sitting – I was at MGM National Harbor. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so I looked – it's a big sports book. Everybody is gambling, right? And I picked up my phone, and I pulled it up, and it was like 3.4 million concurrence right when it started. And I showed people. I was like, holy crap. We got to – I got to say this. I thought it was a glitch. I thought something was wrong. I was like, no, that can't be – there's an M. That should be like a K. Yo, but let me tell you, there was an old Asian lady next to me, and when Bad Bunny came out, she was like, what is this? And I thought it was funny. I'm like, bro, I had a Latino guy in front of me. I had two Asian ladies next to me. I had an old white guy. and everyone agreed, like, we don't know what Bad Bunny is. We're not paying attention, right? But let's save it. Jack, thanks for hanging out. It's going to be fun. Tate Brown's holding it down. What is going on, Patriots? Tate Brown, you're holding it down. You have, like, 40 million viewers. Canada has, like, what, 35 million people? I think the colonization is very obvious. We just send a viewer over. One for one. One for one, yeah. Tell everybody if they want to see the halftime, so they've got to go to Canada, and we outvote everyone. Yeah, we just cast a vote, and it's over. Yeah, because everyone's welcome there. No one's illegal on stolen land. Yeah, exactly. Trump can be installed as king. I think this makes sense. You cut Quebec loose. But, no, because Trump's, remember, Trump's mother was Scottish. True. Which means that he can claim a right to the throne of Great Britain. And because Canada is a commonwealth country, boom, king of Canada. Boom. Trump's already in charge. I love it. We're playing a long game. Long game. Beautiful. Long game. Hello, everybody. My name is Phil LaVonti. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band, All That Remains. I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary. Let's get into it. Here's a story from CNBC, the Save Act House Advances Trump-Backed Voter ID Bill. The Save America Act, supported by President Donald Trump, would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and a photo ID at the ballot box. The legislation would make it harder to vote, Democrats and voting rights groups warn, and has been the subject of a pressure campaign from the White House, congressional GOP hardliners and right-wing influencers. I just can't. I can't even with this. Now that the bill has advanced out of the House, it has slim odds of passing in the Senate where 60 votes are needed to overcome a filibuster. I am – let me just say this. The Republicans need to just get rid of the filibuster. Just goodbye. And I also want to stress this. The fact that CNBC is putting in these caveats of like Democrats say it will make it harder to vote, yes. First of all, good. More importantly, shut up. It's voter ID. Okay? When I go to a gas station to buy a 40 a King Cobra, they ask for my ID. Okay? And that's the least consequential thing I might do. Tim, you drink a lot of King Cobra? All the time, bro. He's off like two right now. Oh, dude. Is that still around? It's not King Cobra. Don't look at me. When I was 18, it's all we would drink. Dude. Odie's a king. Odie? And I'm 18. You're not supposed to drink, so I recommend against it. But it was like $1.40 for a 40. It was guaranteed to get drunk on the weekend. Right, eh? They used to have 40s for $1.50. You could get a 40. What are the birth rates so low? The show was already off the rails. Yeah. Birth rate would skyrocket. We've got the price down to 40s. And it was like a joke in my neighborhood with all my friends because it was so dirt cheap. But we were like, bro, you could panhandle get drunk on a Friday night. Yeah. So it was like, let's party. And you go to somebody, you're like, I get a dollar for the bus. I'm going to go buy King Cobra. Don't do that. Anyway, the point is, when you walk in to do some of the most inconsequential things you can think of, They ask for your ID. In fact, some people get asked for ID literally just walking down the street sometimes. That's just nothing. And then they're like, would you like to have a say and how and who our government is going to blow up overseas? Yes. Don't need an ID for that. Well, you look at the documentation. It's a real ID, right? If you want to fly in this country, if you want to have right of mobility to be able to fly on an airplane, You need either a passport, which requires all sorts of identification to get, or one of the real IDs, which is also requiring birth certificates. And by the way, if you got married, you have to show your marriage certificate, which this is crazy, by the way, because my wife, you know, I tested this out. I married her. She changed her name to my name. Like this was all a big voter ID test. And then I was like, okay, were you able to figure out how to vote? She figured it out. Yeah, she totally figured it out. Really? Somehow. So that's one. That's one. We got one. Very impressed. We got one. Dude, it's crazy. You go to the library and you want to use the computer there. You got to have an ID. You don't use the computer at a voting precinct. You don't need one. It makes zero sense. The homeless people go into the library to jerk off. They're like, you need ID for that. I love it. You don't need one to, what, jerk off in a voting booth? I don't get it. There's a funny post on X. They were like, who said this? If voter ID is... No gooning in the voting booth. This country is tough, dude. Tate. Tate. Dude. No. They do that in the UK. If voter ID is racist, IDs are racist. Right? If the idea is it's racist to ask someone for an ID to vote, then it's racist to ask someone for an ID ever. But you know what the thing is? That's actually what they're trying to do. Right? Look at the illegal immigration issue. If I'm walking down the street, I'm going to be completely honest, and the libertarians are going to start screaming and banging on the floor. If I'm walking down the street and a cop comes up to me and says, excuse me, sir, you match your description. Do you have an ID on you? I'd be like, yeah. Yeah. Here you go. Is there something going on? That's all that happened. Well, that was the whole thing with this DoorDash driver down in the Nancy Guthrie thing last night. Oh, he didn't give his ID? No, no, no. He gave his ID, but it was the description. So he matched the description, and they said that he had worked in Tucson, and I guess somebody had called in and said, oh, the eyes, because you could see the mask. And that was all it was. And they went to a judge and were able to get a search warrant for his house just based on that. Wow. Yeah. That's crazy. Look, I don't like the idea of, like, cops stopping everybody and, like, papers, please, but it's not that big a deal for a cop to be like, you know, we're just looking for somebody with an ID. Like, here you go. I'm not going to answer any questions. Appreciate it. Thanks, have a nice day. I saw a list of how many. That's racist. I saw a list of the countries that require an ID to vote. It's like a hundred of them. Like, it is the most normal thing in the developed world to say, we've got to see an ID to make sure that you are who you are and that you're eligible to vote. The only reason to not, and everybody's been saying this ubiquitously on X, but the only reason to not is because you're looking for ways to cheat. You're looking for ways. It's so obvious. Completely obvious. Well, considering that even Democrat voters are like, we should have voter ID. Right. Everybody agrees with it. And Democrat politicians are like, no, you don't understand. We'll never win again. I mean. You don't understand. It's a wedge issue. Oh, oh, I didn't know. Did you? I just. Women. Wait, there was a TikTok. Do you remember when Joe Biden said that he had that line about, like, black people can't get online or something? They don't know how to use the internet. He said this. It was Kathy Hochul as well, yeah. And then someone – there was a black TikToker, and he made this video. Oh, is that where he's bouncing? Where he's just, like, bouncing up and down and, like, smashing his laptop. That was a Kathy Hochul video. Kathy Hochul? Oh, was it Kathy? I thought it was like, there's kids in the Bronx that don't even know what a computer is. He's, like, jumping around and, like, banging on it. That was crazy. Is that real? No, no. I thought it was funny. Because it sounds like something I would say, to be fair. This is what pisses me off. A black man jumping up and down like he's a monkey, smashing the computer. And that was like, there's nothing racist about doing that. He was criticizing their racism. Trump puts out this video where they put the faces of all these Democrats on animals from The Lion King. It was The Lion King, yeah. And then everyone's like, Trump's a racist. And you know what pissed me off? Media Matters took my quote and ran with it as if I'm racist. I said, it's not racist. not every depiction of a stereotype is racist. The intention matters. My point is, could you imagine if it's like, hey, guys, for lunch day at the office, I'm ordering a whole bunch of Buffalo Wild Wings, but not for the black employees, because that would be racist. Do you believe what Tim Pool did? He ordered a bunch of fried chicken and he has black employees eating them. I'm like, yes, because everybody loves it. It's not racist. OK, someone making a meme video where there's a bunch of Democrats on the faces of animals does not mean that Trump intentionally depicted the violence only as apes and then insulted them as if they were. That would be racist. And this is the reality we get. So anyway, I bring that up only because we point out, as Kathy Hochul says, black people don't not use computers. A black person made a video of him pretending to be like a monkey confused by a computer. No outrage. Come on. Everyone thought it was funny. It could have been real. I don't know. Maybe he really hadn't seen it before. We documented it. But somehow he got on TikTok. I just – you know what I really love about this narrative that women don't know how to vote is – So true. You know, I think we should roll with it. I think we should just say to the Democrats, you know, you are right. Women aren't that smart, right? And that's a problem. Maybe they shouldn't vote then. If the argument from Democrats is that women don't know how to change their names, which is like a standard thing every woman does when they get married, then – Every good woman. Every good woman. Oh. Some hyphenate. Spice, spice, spice. That's the other point, too. You don't have to change your name. So this would be that women can't vote. No, because conservative women definitely want to vote, and liberal women aren't changing their names. So they can have a nice day. Yeah, what if the women get hurt at the voting booth? I would hate if that happened. You know, that's a really great point. They might prick themselves in the pen and get an infection. Yeah, break a nail. And then it's amputation. Yeah. And then gangrene. You know, we should just make sure the women aren't going near the voting booth. The funniest thing about this, too, though, is that when you look at actual demographics in just any post-election poll, any exit poll, you're going to see married women typically tend to vote more Republican to begin with. Yes, but that's correlation, not causation. Perhaps, but – Conservative women are more likely to get married. Well, because they're more like, of course, of course. But my point being is, so if married women were to the detriment for voter ID, then conservatives actually thought that was a problem. Then wouldn't we be the ones shooting ourselves in the foot if we're for voter ID? Like, wouldn't it benefit the liberals to have voter ID then? Because it would disproportionately affect conservative women. Yeah, right. But they don't. But they don't. But it's like you guys, your own argument, even within your own frame, doesn't make any sense. Of course. Because it would benefit you if for some reason this were true. That's why I'm saying we've got to roll with it. So if you ever debate a liberal, like I'd love to see Michael Knowles debate Harry Sisson again. And he can say, you know what, Harry, I agree. Women aren't smart enough to figure out how to vote. So maybe we should consider that. Can you say that for everyone publicly that women can't figure this out? Say it. Right. And then he's going to be like, well, of course they can figure it out. So there's no problem with voter ID then. So Scott Adams used to talk about this. And I don't know if you've seen the whole controversy with AI, Scott Adams. It's like this whole huge back and forth thing. What is it? Well, let me say the first part for that, where he used to say that the way you can defeat bad arguments is through, like, aggressive agreement with them. Yeah. Just aggressively agree with everything and then push it as far as possible. That's a standard tactic called rapport extreme turn. Right. So we've explained it on the show. 101, here's a lesson for you guys. Whenever you're trying to persuade someone, and Scott Adams was a master of this stuff. Of course. You can't approach them as an enemy. You have to approach them as a friend. So that's the first step is rapport. So when someone approaches you with a statement, you agree with it. They say the SAVE Act is sexist. It's going to disproportionately affect women. Your response is you are so right. These maggots are trying to take women's right to vote away. Now you have rapport. This lowers their defenses and they say, oh, OK, this person's a liberal. They're like me. You then offer them the extreme, which is, you know, women just aren't smart. Their IQs are lower than men's. Men are smarter. And the Republicans, they're trying to take away women's right to vote because they know women are just generally not that intelligent. Well, I have to man, of course. Liberal can't agree with that. So now you've entered their arguments on their side and then made a point in their argument they cannot agree with, creating an extreme. Then when they say, well, I don't know about all that, you give them what's called the turn, which is a solution in your direction where you say, well, I guess you're right. I mean, women are smart enough to figure out how to vote even with an idea. I agree. So once again, you're agreeing with them, but you've inverted their point by pushing them too far. So good. Yeah, that was we had this back in 2020 or 2021 when when, you know, like peak woke era. My church at one point, for whatever crazy reason, had put out this this email and they were saying, oh, we're going to be setting up like a racism council at at the church. and i was like so i was like it was like a racial justice it was like a racial justice we're gonna be more racist and so put a council together and so and i remember i was like talking to my buddy and i was like is there like a is there like a racial problem at the church like or no it's all white people not sitting and we are not we are certainly not and you know like are we not sitting close enough together but then i was like i was at the same time i was like you know what the best thing to be do here is like so i volunteered to lead it i want to lead the race and i was like this is gonna be great i'm gonna create all these rules and like strictly enforce them that that if you're if you're like a white family and you're not sitting close enough to a family of color like there's gonna be a problem you know i know how i come out with like a like a yardstick and oh this is not close enough you miss an opportunity the further are you the further you are away the more you have to tithe. That's right. That's right. That's right. Yeah. There's going to be monetary penalties. They're going to be also, and, and it ended up not going that, you know, that far. And then they just kind of stopped talking about it. But I was like, I kept telling them I wanted, I wanted to volunteer to run it. And I want to be the head of the racism council. I want to be involved. Hold on. Hold on. To be completely honest, anti-racism and pro-racism are very much the same thing. They're very much the same. Explained in a different way. Right. So when the left is like – this was the woke versus racist comment that Ryan Long and Danny Polischik did. Basically, you have the woke person say, we have a problem with racism in this church, so we need to give black people their own private space away from white people. And then the pro-racist guy says, you know you're right. Yep. Completely agree with you. Yeah, literally. Like when they were doing the dorms, they were like making the black-only dorms a few years ago. Yeah, isn't that correct? Like a section of people are like, that's a pretty good idea. It's kind of crazy. Do you do an Indian-only dorm? Is that a possibility? It's kind of crazy that they're discovering racism from first principles, right? Yeah, exactly. Did you see that there's like hundreds of thousands of fake degrees being given out in India? I saw that. Oh, God. Basically what's happened, and maybe we should pull this up in a bit, but there's fake degrees being given out, and then these Indians will apply for high-level visas to the United States with a fake degree. Dude. So we're bringing in people who are doctors, and they're not doctors. Is it? Is India the scam capital of the world nowadays? It's up there. You know, there's a saying in hacker culture, if you're not cheating, you're not trying. And I'm just going to refer to them as a hacker culture. Yeah, they're just trying to. Well, it's overperforming. That's the issue. Well, to throw it out, because I did mention it. So there's the controversy right now over A.I. Scott Adams. And the estate is totally against it. They've asked them to stop. However, we don't know exactly who it is. And there's this AI Scott Adams show, which has been running, and people were – I shared it once because – Oh, they're like making videos of them or something? Well, it's like they're keeping the show going. And he had said a number of times that he had wanted his likeness to be used publicly. And he said a couple of times – like many times over the years that I want to be the first AI entity that goes on in perpetuity. And so someone actually took him up on it. However, towards the end, when he knew his health was fading, he did also come out and say, I'm not sure if I want to do this anymore because I don't know if AI is ready for it. And so he said, you know, maybe we just do something where it's like a Scott Jr., a son of Scott, but it's not actually me. And so there's this huge controversy over it because the estate has asked him to stop, but the guy is going to those other permissions when he gave them on air and saying, well, look, he said this so many times. And so what's crazy, though, is it on X or something? Yeah, if you just AI Scott Adams on X and no spaces or anything. And what's crazy, though, is the guy has the AI Scott Adams debating whether or not he should exist. Oh, gosh. Oh, is this right here? Yeah, and it's very realistic. Wow. It's very, very realistic. Dazzling coalition of sharp-eyed skeptics and dawn-patrolling idea warriors. Welcome to the radiant hub of ruthless clarity, the prime locale where incisive logic, steving Joe, and a healthy skepticism for the absurd come together like a well-orchestrated conspiracy. and if you want to rev this right up until your razor-tuned synapses... Bro, I'm over it. I'm done. I'm getting my chickens. I'm just going to wear some leathers that I get off a deer. I'm going to make some deer hide leathers. I'm going to get a big walking stick, and I'm going to walk through the field. I'm just gone. No more of this. Technology has gone too far, and, you know, goodbye. We probably could have had this a lot earlier. Do you remember it was like literally six or seven years ago at this point where someone perfectly modulated Jordan Peterson's voice? Yeah. And he came out. Yeah, well, he came out and he was like, oh, this is unacceptable. Please take this down. This is terrifying. That's kind of crazy. I remember that on this show, there was an AI voice replicator of Joe Rogan. The first time this was ever done. It was a university that released this model where you could type something in and make Joe Rogan say it. And then I think they disabled it right away because they were like, okay, this is bad. And then a bunch of companies came out. Using that model, and now you can literally clone anybody. Yeah. I will say this. These – for whatever reason, they have a hard time cloning my voice and cadence. I don't know why. It never sounds like me. But Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, Donald Trump, Ben Shapiro, it nails these voices. Well, it was 11 Labs was the big one. And then I think they just kept getting sued, so they took away the ability. You have to, like, verify that it's your voice. Oh, really? If you can do a killer like Jordan Peterson, you can verify with your imitation and still keep the voice. Don't ask who I know. No, I actually know that because I was using Eleven Labs for some projects both before and after that thing came out. And so I was just messing around with it. And I think we did like a – What did we do? We did a Charlie Kirk one. And I just had – and it was obviously before everything happened. And, you know, I just had Charlie saying, like, funny stuff, and then I was sending it to him to just mess with him. But we were just doing it as a proof of concept. And he thought it was hilarious. He's like, when did I say that? I never said that. But then we explained it to him. He's like, this is really cool. And he was super into it. And he was like, we can do this. He's like, this could be a time maximizer. Like, I could type something. It could record it, you know, whatever. But I didn't have to verify it. It was all these things we were supposed to be doing with AI that were going to unlock so much productivity. But when we met me and my friends got our hands on Eleven Labs, we were just threatening each other with Ben Shapiro's voice. I was like, I haven't thought I'd be speaking if I were to kill you right now. You've seen all the David Attenborough's. Yeah. You can go to YouTube and watch all kinds of videos. There's a bunch of videos that are just talking about space or physics or whatever. It's David Attenborough's voice. There's the one where it explains memes with David Attenborough. But here's my problem with it, that it can't replicate my speech patterns, cadence, or sound of my voice, because if it could, I could just have Tate do everything for me forever, and I could just leave with my chickens, and he could literally just go on Grok and be like, write a Tim Pool script. Then he can upload it to Eleven Labs and click send, and then it would just be a video of me every morning. We should be doing a Korean language model with English phonetic sounding words. Oh, and that's been around forever, too, where you can – we've done this, actually. We took one of my morning segments and converted it into all these different languages. You don't have – here's the thing. I have that for my show. YouTube does it already. You don't have to do any of that. YouTube does it already. You can have a multbot, the AI agents. You can have one do that all for you every day. Just tell it, hey, this is what I want you to do. Give it the passwords to the YouTube channel, and it'll go ahead and generate the video. I have that for my show now. So we have an Espanol, like Real America's Voice Espanol. So my show comes out in Spanish every day. But YouTube does it automatically. That's the thing. So we were actually looking at AI services because we were like, hey, if we do, you know, Timcast Spanish, Timcast French or whatever, it might not be a ton of viewership, but viewers are viewers. And then we actually got some samples because they're automated services. You just upload and press go and it's done. And it's literally my mouth is moving in Spanish. And I'm like, hola, mi amigos, bienvenidos. And then we decided not to do it because YouTube automatically integrated AI. So they can just click it. Yeah, apparently now YouTube has integrated language stuff. Well, the one other one, and of course he said no, but when Bannon went to jail in 2024, we pointed out that we could create an AI Bannon to do War Room while he was adamantly opposed. He hates AI. He's like, it's all the Antichrist. He doesn't want it at all. It's all demonic. He's actually, I believe, if I remember correctly, all AI, even Suno, is banned from War Room. He will not allow anything. You know what I'm going to do? I'm just going to launch Timcast AI as a channel and just see if it works. I'm going to be like, look, you know, your choice. Do you want to listen to it or not? Two hours of just AI IRL. Well, I told Chad GPT. So I don't write scripts. And then it gets better views. and then what you do is you use a video generator and you just say i gotta be honest you could get one of these agents like phil's talking about and say i need a 20 minute long video based on this script show examples and articles it will pull them it will do it for you like we're there bro it's it's now we were screwing around with project uh genie earlier and we made the ice agent Minneapolis video game. We literally, you can't beat the protest or anything like that. Tim tried to give him a sword. I did. A wooden sword. A boken. A boken. Boken. And it didn't work. It did not give the ice. I wanted the ice agent to run around because it's just wood. Those that are familiar, a boken is a long wooden katana-like instrument. They use them in Anaheim on horseback. Not a... Anaheim. Anaheim. What's going on in Anaheim? So I was down there for a protest like 10 years ago, and there are cops on horseback with Boken, and they're riding around, and they're wielding swords. They're wooden, though. So they hurt. Okay. How much did they hurt, Tim? Well, I didn't get hit by one, but I did see – no, I'm kidding. So I asked ChetgyPT – I don't write scripts. I just talk, right? I said, write a script about AI advancement in the style of Tim Pool. And it didn't really get it right because it started with, all right, so here's what's happening. I never do that. I always just press record and I go, over the last few years, artificial intelligence has improved. It's accelerated. I don't mean marginal upgrades. I mean exponential shifts in capability. Systems that once struggled to complete basic sentences are now writing code, generating realistic video, analyzing legal documents, diagnosing medical images, and operating autonomous systems in real time. In the early 2020s, AI models were mostly reactive tools. You give them a prompt. They produce text. That was it. Now we're seeing multimodal systems, models that can understand. This is crazy. I don't need I could you know what I'm gonna do I'm just gonna go in 11 labs I'm gonna be like I'm Tim Pool here's my voice hit me and then I'm gonna take this and I'm gonna be like write a 20 minute long script and then I'm good here's here's the issue there are channels already doing this they they'll generate 40 minute long news reports they'll take like 10 news articles load them into an AI and say convert these stories into a single news podcast then they'll do one of these fake person generators and they'll get like a young looking woman and she'll just be sitting there and it looks like she's in a bedroom and she'll be saying like, hey guys, so recently Mexico announced that they were going to resist any effort from the Trump administration. And then they uploaded these videos get like 800 views. That's nothing. But they're uploading tens of thousands of them per week. And they're getting an estimated like there was one video announced I saw someone posted the back end on their channels, 150K. And they did because they were trying to market their service saying, I can teach you how to make this money off YouTube. The problem is just like with X, it means all of the YouTubers revenue is dropping dramatically. This is going to result in a world where only ubiquity sponsors are going to make money. So let me explain. So for us, for me, for us on Tim Castile, a large portion of the money we make comes from a programmatic advertising. This is an advertiser goes on, goes on Google ads, says, I want to run an ad. Google then says, let's put this ad on a series of videos. If these people are spam blasting massive amounts of videos, the ad, the ad dollars going into Google will always be around the same amount. It probably grows a little bit as the market shifting but with this exponential increase in AI content the share is being spread out So where we used to make X amount of dollars we now going to make X minus 20 because the share is being divvied up. So it's like instead of making $200 a spot, you make $1 200 times. Well, no, no, no. My point is if I make a video that gets 250,000 views, it'll probably get about $1,500 to $2,000. Now that the way it used to be was that would probably be $5,000. But because there's so much competition, an advertiser's video is going to appear on 10 times more videos. The share of money in the pool to go out is diminished. Right. On X, they had this problem. When X first launched payments, we were swimming in dough. It was amazing. I had one period where I got like 13 grand in two weeks. Wow. Just for me tweeting stupid things. You don't tweet a lot. I don't tweet a lot, and sometimes I tweet stupid things. And then what happened? Not just something. Indians got on X, created a bunch of accounts, paid for verification, and then started mass replying to each other. They would say, good day, good day, good day. How are you? I'm good. And you? I'm fine. And the replies are what generates revenue. All of a sudden, people noticed their payments were dropping dramatically. People then found this network, complained to X, and said, these are fake accounts, not making real content or engagement, and they're pulling money out of the pool for actual creators. X said, okay, we're going to fix this. The problem we have right now, YouTube needs to ban AI-generated content like this. There are places where it's good. Like there's that YouTube channel, Shut Up to Sky Browse, who made that Elon Musk song. That's great work. He used AI video and AI music to make a great music video, and that's good, and he deserves to get paid for that. But taking news articles, AI-generating a 40-minute news podcast, and then spam-blasting them on X, that should be banned. Got to be banned. And one of the other things that I've thought of as well, and I've tweeted this a few times, is, look, X is a global site, of course, but not all companies are global. And obviously, consumers are not global, right? Customers are not global. Customers are a physical person who lives in a physical place. So wouldn't it make sense then that if you're an advertiser, if you're trying to target a certain market, you're not trying – and you don't want your ad going to different countries. You could choose obviously where you want your ad to run. But then also that if your traffic is from another country, then shouldn't the advertising go out at the rate of – the market rate in that country versus your own country? I want to pull up this video. My friends, have you seen the new movie Brad Pitt? I just watched it the other day. It was so good. It's so good. It's about Brad Pitt. He's friends with Jeffrey Epstein. Here's the movie. You killed Jeffrey Epstein, you animal. He was a good man. He knew too much about our Russia operations. He had to die, and now you die too. Okay, Brad Pitt is not friends with Epstein. as far as I know, but this is nuts. This video is absolutely crazy. I mean, I'm going to play it again. What's even crazier about it is that the script doesn't make any sense. Like the city's destroyed or whatever, like the bubble everywhere. The Russia, like why would that be? You could write a little better than this. I noticed Tom Cruise's height is oscillating at sometimes he's a much shorter than Brad Pitt. But that's also accurate because it does the same thing in real movies. Have you seen the video of the old Indian guy, the old bald Indian guy saying, My wife thinks I'm a successful businessman, but I actually use AI to make an OnlyFan with 1.3 million. And he's in a suit, and he's going like this. And then it shows the AI rendered video of a young girl in a skirt dancing. That's beast. It's not a filter. It's called Replacement AI. Yeah. So here's the crazy thing. Do you even need that filter anymore? Like, I feel like you can, at this point, probably just type in a prompt and get whatever you want. There's a rendering time involved. So I made a video. Okay. So did you see the video of the guy in his car screaming, us is killing yeah it was so i took that and then i took a picture of adam johnson the lectern guy and i made him doing it and it was hilarious i didn't post it i just thought it was funny but um again for all you know that you know these young gen z guys those girls they're gooning to are guys right that's a dude man that's a dude what if my girlfriend is actually an old indian guys. We got to show this one. We got to show this one, guys. This one's not AI. I thought we were talking about AI. I remember when this happened. See, but here's the important thing about this. People are not going to know what's real. Okay, 20 years from now, some little kid's going to be like, this never happened? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Treader is in my house. Again, this is not AI. I remember December 14th, 91. I was watching. Here, look at this. Look at this. Premium live event championship press conference. like it's getting text right the crazy thing is again what happens in 20 years that's actually incorrect though because they were not called premium live events in the 90s they were called pay-per-views well but but sure but the point but it's yeah yeah there's going to be a kid who's born five years from now he's going to be 15 years 15 years old and he's going to see this video and it's not just this one video there's going to be millions of them he's going to be like i don't know which of these is real there's going to be no history anymore they're going to be like the Ninja Turtles, weren't they from the 90s? Yes, but they never did WWF. Well, bro, I got a video of it. So it's literally the kid being like, nothing is real, everything's fake. Tim, what if they're not rendering things from AI? What if they're actually just going into different versions of the past? Alternate pasts, yeah. Alternate pasts and bringing the videos forward. Well, what I said was... How would you know? If energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed, then when we imagine in our minds a story, we are not imagining we're actually seeing into an alternate reality. The energy already exists. We can't create it. The patterns of those systems already exist. So this Goku versus Monkey D. Luffy actually happened in some alternate reality with his mushy fist. Here's the crazy thing. Let me pull up something else. That one's seed dance, right? Check this out. Guys, this is Google Genie. Okay. I typed in downtown Minneapolis in winter during a protest, and the character is an ice agent wielding a boken. We already did make one version of this. Let's just try it again and see what happens. Google Genie is a third-person video game generator. You're allowed to play it for about 60 seconds, but you can only jump. You can walk, run, or jump. I will tell you this. The capabilities they have behind the scenes are probably a thousandfold. Google probably can already behind the scenes render GTA 6. They can probably literally go into it and just say, make GTA 6. Look at this. Let's go. And is this – do you have like the paid version or is this just – It's only for the highest tier of people who pay. Okay. Abolish ICE. But even still – Okay. This is the worst – Wait, he got the sign stuck to him. He stole the sign. He stole the sign. Sign thief. And the guy just vanished. He Thanos snapped away the protester. But think about it though. Think about the amount of people and time it would take just a couple years ago to make something like this. All right. We're going to do this in real time. What should we make? I don't know. Make RoboCop. Consider copyright infringement. Oh, yeah. RoboCop might work. But from – okay, where? Okay, RoboCop. Wait, wait, wait. We need – no, wait, wait, wait. I want – at the Super Bowl. that's probably going to get copyright infringement blocked at a football game uh we i just did jurassic park character robocop it's not it the weird thing jurassic park isn't copyright that's what i say the weird thing is some some some things are blocked and some aren't i put goku in uh in springfield yeah and he was running around and bart simpson there we go look at this here we go look at that oh my gosh how long did that take 10 seconds i blinked additional 10 seconds to render the world it might it might still kick us back we're halfway there it might say i want him fighting cyborg dinosaurs too by the way you could do this you need robo cop robo dinos look at this oh my gosh can you jump look at that yep look at this dude there's the gun wow robo cop and get robo cop can you go through the gate of course robo cop deporting illegals that'd be good we could use them honestly robo so they give you 60 seconds in whatever rendered world you get and then you can save the video of the gameplay now i can tell you this they could if they wanted to give us the ability to add fighting and a whole bunch of other mechanisms the reason i know is because not only can you make a game where you're robocop you can also make driving games you can make flying games and i i rendered planet namek with the character Goku. That's from Dragon Ball Z. And I had Goku running around and he jumped. I then accidentally pressed space bar again and Goku did a... Whoa! Yeah, not his face. He almost started flying and it showed a burst of energy come out of Goku as if it could have done it, but then it stopped him, froze, and then aired. It was like, I can't do this. Alright, so what should we do next? Darth Vader fighting Care Bears. Oh, it's death. You can't do that. No? Because we're not fighting. We're not telling stories. We're choosing an environment and a character to put him in. So we can try Darth Vader, but I bet it's going to say screw off. Darth Vader in Care Bear Land. What was their place called? I forget. I have no idea. I have a feeling Darth Vader's way too nice. There was a name for it. Was it Dream Land or something like that? Darth Vader, I have a feeling it's going to be like, nice try, bro. Darth Vader. I tried Mickey Mouse. It didn't work. Homer Simpson worked. Darth Vader outside federal building in Portland. It said no, Darth Vader. It said no. No, Darth Vader. It was in Care-a-lot. Care a lot? Care a lot or a lot? Oh, God. It's like a play on Camelot. I did the Death Star. Let's do King Arthur. King Arthur. The Death Star worked. I did... What did I do? I think I did like Han Solo and the Death Star and it worked. Yeah. Wild. So we could actually... What you're saying is we could actually use this to do the one thing that Disney would never do. Fix Star Wars? Put all of the original characters back together. Okay, that's not quite right. No, no. He's on a destroyer staring at the Death Star. I mean, it's pretty close. You know, pretty close. He's on his way to the Death Star. He's on his way, you know. He's on his way. No, no. Third party content. Not doing it. Gosh. I have an idea. I have an idea. Let's try the Holy Land. What year do we want to do? 800 AD or? Crusades. Yeah, what year is 1200 AD? Sure, 1200. 1200 AD. And Templar Knight. I think it was someone punched in the coordinates of the crucifixion, and they put the coordinates in. What year was it? Was it 33 AD? Was it 30? The first crucifixion was 1096. 1096, thank you. technically it would be 33 but some people say the Bible the dates are slightly off they put it in with the coordinates and it had a person walking around with the crucifixion there you go wow let's see if it does this is just Dearborn it looks like a Assassin's Creed yeah it is I tried doing a bunch of fallout stuff at Dearborn, Michigan at Templar and Dearborn. That'd be awesome. There we go. Wait, did you write, put him on a horse? No. Look at that. The horse jumps. Look at that. Now it's trotting. Dude, this is nuts. Just G-Wat. Video games are done, bro. Hey, G-Wat. You guys see the game Relooted? Did y'all see Relooted? What's that? Yes. It's the game where you play black people stealing stuff. Oh. What? I'm not kidding. It's about, in the future, a group of black people are angry that white people stole their artifacts so they go on a heist to steal it all from museums. It had 57 players at peak on today's launch. So my point is, everyone's been complaining about how bad video games are. The video game industry has cooked. Well, here you go. And they had this original idea, a game where black people steal. Yeah. Wow. You're really blown up. I can't imagine something like that. But the funny thing is, they thought they were being, like, not racist by making it. It's like, guys, please. It was stealing back artifacts. We have a proposal. No, it's not. Talk with me here. That's technically what they said, but they mention in the story it's private collections. Oh, okay. Meaning it's not government-held museum stuff. They were people who legitimately bought something, and they were stealing it from them, too. Stealing it from them. Nice. Okay, so Tate has a request. Dearborn, Michigan, and Templar Knight. That's what you wanted? Yeah, I think this could be good. I don't think Gemini has the emotional intelligence to understand why it should not render this. But, you know. It's going to be like, I don't see anything wrong with that. Watch, it says no. That'd be hilarious. There is nothing wrong with it. It's very much needed, I would argue. I think it's more offensive. Put them on a horse is what's interesting. I didn't say to do that. Yeah, that's pretty. You can also put the horses flying, and then you can fly around. Right. It's wild. Pegasus. Pegasus. All right. Blackhawk and Down, but Minneapolis. That could be all the smallies. Behind enemy lines. You're going to see indie movies. Or indie games, indie movies. This was my prediction. Here we go. I got it. They have an Arabic script on the... Do they really? No, they don't. Perfect. That's just the AI script. My prediction is that video games and movies are going to be like following someone on X. You're going to be like, oh, bro, Tate makes the best games. No, look, that's Arabic, bro. That's Arabic, dude. That's a point of view. Trump third term. I don't like it when he's walking because they usually don't jump if they do. Look how scared the locals are. Sometimes the controls don't work perfectly. Is that someone in a burka? Like straight ahead? It might be. Let's go. The faces are always really weird, though. Even the helmet makes sense. Look, it's... A full face. So that's Arabic. That's AI Arabic. Barely Arabic. Oh, look at this. Look at the lights, red and green at the same time. Ice budget's crazy. I don't know if it's this good. The ice budget. Yeah, they're sending out Templar Knights. Stephen Miller, what was that? What was this? The sword is probably cheaper than all the flashbangs and bear spray. We were a little heavy-handed on the response. You know what? Let's try this. You need the aluminum for it. Let's try one more thing. Before we actually go back to the plan. It probably won't let me do this. Dearborn, Michigan. Let's see. Major fire damage. Templar knight running. Let's see if that one works. Whenever I try to make post-apocalyptic scenes or whatever, it just always says no. Really? Yeah, that's the weirdest thing. Because I was trying to render Fallout. I did Simpsons. I said take the original Legend of Zelda NES in 3D with Link, and it made it. It's not like a one-for-one-of-a-mat, but it looks like all the same. So that didn't trigger copyright, though. Nope. So it's kind of hit or miss. Looks like this one worked. Let's go. You've got to screenshot that one. It's pretty realistic. Welcome to Dearborn. Welcome to Dearborn. They've even blown up their own sign My presumption was The Templar Knight did it Oh Look at this He's an EOD tech Give me a jump Nah he won't jump This is why you trust the plan everyone Does Dearborn Michigan look like this Yes This is very glossy Yeah this is This is the Kenosha edition Kenosha bro Should I do it No. No. No. We're going to save that one for the after show. That's the after show. That's the after show. Oh, man. Are we retconned? No. No. I mean, that's just a replay. Yo, look at this. We'll go down. And then once it's done, you can save the video, which is higher res. You got to save this one. Where's all the locals? I think he did. This is after he's finished his work. This is afterwards. The fire. What do you mean? He's trying to save them. This is after he's completed the operation. This is the you already won the game version. This is the remigration success. Plus Act 3 of the game. Yeah, yeah. After the nuclear bomb was dropped. That's right. Yeah. All right. You're going to have it broken up into Act 3. So then it'll freeze, and then it gives you the option to download it. Amazing. So you can then, I don't know what that says. That was so funny, the sign. Yeah. The sign was perfect. And then there's a, yeah, welcome to the airport. God bless America, man. But you're still going to, you know what, though? Think of it, though. You know what you still need the individual for is for that creative spark at the beginning. Because it doesn't know why a Templar in Dearborn is interesting and going to be. But it doesn't know why there would be a market for that. Why would people care about that? So you still need an actual. Remember we could tell jokes without getting in trouble. I know, right? Are we going to get in trouble for that? Of course. There's like some leftist going to be like, hey, bro, you made Media Matters. Congratulations. Yeah, a lot. Here's what I'm thinking of. It's like, have you guys seen the new Iron Lung and that whole thing? Iron Lung? Yeah, it's that new movie that's out right now. It's like Markiplier, the guy who put it all out there. Oh, yes, yes, yes. He beat the studios. He beat the studios, literally made it himself, and it's based off an indie game. but even then it's the creativity of what went into that game and it's you know this maybe think of it as how it's post-apocalyptic and you know but it's in space obviously but he has to go he has to go I haven't played the game but I watched the movie it was great and he has to explore this moon and he can only support explore it in a submersible because the entire moon is covered in liquid, but it turns out that it's not water. It's blood. Blood-filled ocean. Yeah, it's an ocean of blood. And then they, what are they, the corporate press was just like, it never happened. They ignored him. Totally ignored it. Wasn't a big deal. He fronted all the money for it. He stars in it himself. Does a great job, by the way. And I think it's made like $20 million. Gross $37.2 million. Oh, my gosh. $3 million production budget. you've used 800 80,000 gallons of fake blood making the biggest the bloodiest movie ever filmed so and and you know when we uh we put out a bunch of songs and every time we do for some reason they gave us a they gave us a fake reason why they weren't going to track it they weren't going to put it on billboard and it's all political yeah when we did a press release for one of our song releases we got back emails from these major newspapers like the press release saying you know Tim Pool released a song with Pete Parada. The song is titled this. They replied back with go F yourself, stuff like that. That is what is wrong with these people. I'll tell you that in putting together the halftime show, we ran up against this as well. And there were times where we went up for venues or certain times and, oh, we're not going to work with you because you're turning point. Or you have to imagine people don't want to go up against the NFL. Did you see the fake story they ran right before the halftime show? Which one? So a story ran that said Kid Rock artists drop out. Wait, no, I did see this. Yes, yeah. This came across my radar, and I'm looking at it going, well, I don't have time to respond to this, but he's obviously not dropped out because he's the star of the show. So check this out. This story went up just before the Super Bowl. Kid Rock Festival canceled several tour dates after artists drop out. one band says it wants to unite, not divide. And so I'm at MGM on the day before the Super Bowl. And I said, someone, someone brought up Bad Bunny and I sit at a poker table and then I asked everybody, I was like, you guys excited for this? Bro, everybody was laughing. They were like, no. And the D and I was like, yeah, Turning Point's going to do that, that kid rock show. And the dealer goes, oh, but everyone dropped out of that. And I was like, no, they didn't. And he was like, Yeah, I read that. Everybody dropped out. And I was like, I think you're thinking of something different because they're doing their show tomorrow. And then he was like, oh, I don't know. This is what they do. It's a distant campaign. They run the story to tell people there's no show anymore. And this is a separate festival. Yep. It's a separate festival. It's a separate thing. And by the way, again, though, this is how the industry was working to chop block us at every turn, working to, you know, oh, we're not going to give you these rights. We're not going to give you those rights. You can't broadcast this song on X. You can't do this. You can't do that. And then suddenly they put pressure on, okay, Kid Rock thinks he's going to go up against the Super Bowl halftime show, or we're going to put pressure on bands to cancel his tour. We're going to cancel the dates. We're going to cancel the festival. Anything they could. And in despite of that, we still get $40, $50 million. Do you have the video? So there's a bunch of videos from the Super Bowl of the crowd, but do you have the actual video of the show? What do you mean? Did you post it on your ex? Oh, um. So there's a bunch of videos we've all, we all have seen. I don't think I actually have posted the video on ex. You know why? This is the craziest thing. So, okay. There's a bunch of videos where people during the show film the crowd and the crowd's not dancing. Right. That is not the most interesting video. Someone filmed the actual set of the halftime show and you can't see anything. because the whole center of the field is stalks of sugar cane. I've seen this, yeah. And you can't see anybody inside doing anything. It actually reminded me of the velociraptors in Jurassic Park, that video, because you just see the rustling of the tall grass. And so you're sitting there, you're looking for a show. Kind of swaying a little bit. When you look at our halftime show, we went for that traditional spectacle, whereas you could enjoy on TV or live. whereas theirs you could only here we go here we go check this out check this out this is the i don't need to hear that so the people sitting in the stands can't actually see anything going on yeah they see the velociraptors yep and so people are like it was a great show it was a tremendous success and i'm like bro no it wasn't this was for tv not for look at this you can't see anything this is nuts man you know what really oh it's so annoying i don't want to hear this guy the most annoying thing about this is the media keeps saying it was a record-breaking thing 135 million views smashing success and i'm like just stop i can't stand the pravda the party is stronger than ever it's perfect we are great and then everybody else is watching turning point look Clay Travis came out, and I trust him when it comes to sports reporting. That's how he cut his teeth, outkick. He knows this stuff. He said this was the largest drop-off they've had for a halftime show in Super Bowl history. 40% or 50%. And he also pointed out that typically the halftime shows get a bump because people tune in because they want to see the show. Think Michael Jackson in 93. Listen, listen. People want to see him because of his stardom. When they had Eminem and Snoop and Dre, it was like 2022 or whatever. I don't watch football. I know very little about football. We had a Super Bowl party. We were eating nachos. You put cream cheese, chili, and then cheddar on top. That's a secret recipe. Or mel chili. You bake it. It's the best football dip ever. And then when the halftime show came on, we all watched the TV. The halftime show is what everybody attaches to. The fact that they lost half their viewers when it happened. But here's actually something. Well, keep in mind, though, and this is something where, like, so when people are comparing the numbers that – and, Tim, I know you understand this – that they're actually comparing apples to oranges because our views on YouTube and our views from our cable partners and over the top and fast networks, et cetera, those are devices, whereas Nielsen is completely different. And Nielsen uses a formula where they assume, and I kind of agree with this, they say, well, nobody really watches the Super Bowl by themselves. It's typically at a party or something. And so what they do is they take the household number and they times it by three. Yep. So when you're reading Nielsen ratings, it says that. Whereas, and then they'll say, and Turning Point got 20 million views on their YouTube channel. It's like, well, first of all, we had more than one stream up. And second of all. And there are parties and there are bars. Those were parties. Those were bars. There were anyone with a YouTube TV set. I mean, the one I was at, we had like 30 people were there with my wife. This has been a longstanding challenge for us on Timcast IRL because right now we have, let's see, between YouTube and Rumble, we have about 45 – we have 43, 44,000 concurrent viewers. The issue is when we sell against this and we say like, oh, you know, the show is going to get 600, 700,000 views. There's a difference between a show like ours, which is live 8 to 11 p.m. every day and a VOD, which is watched on mobile. About half our viewers watch on TVs. And so one thing I noticed very early on was that it seemed disproportionate, the amount of people who knew about the show and talked to me. And I didn't understand until we actually figured out talking with some industry execs who said, oh, it's because you're a TV show. Tim Kest IRL is watched on a lot of televisions, right? Yeah, there's four or five people in that room. And I went, oh. We had advertisers saying. Right. So we had advertisers say to us, we heard this for like two years, you overperform. You have 600,000, 700,000 viewers. We'll buy an ad from you, and it performs as though it's a million. We love advertising on your show and we sell ads like crazy. The reality is we're underselling because the metrics used online are seemingly a device, even if it's actually multiple people. So here's the challenge for you, Jack, and here's what you guys should say. You guys should say you had 90 million viewers. I'm going to say it right now. If you had 30 million, then you would times it by three. Because the halftime show was played on bars, on televisions. It was not. And it's a silly thing to assume. In fact, here's what you really should do. Go into the channel's metrics and look how many mobile devices and how many TVs. And for every TV, do the Nielsen analysis. So if you guys have 40% TVs, call that you got 45 million. Let's say 20 times 3 is 60. That puts you at 85 million views for the TPUSA halftime show. People. Yeah, right, right. Viewers. And this is my point. So whenever you read these articles and they're comparing the numbers, you're comparing apples to oranges. because Nielsen uses the times three. Let me just throw this to you because we mentioned this on the show when it happened or the day after. Which advertiser out there, which would you prefer? I can hold up a sign that someone will walk past or I can hold up a sign to a group of people who are looking to come and stare at the sign. You want the engaged. You want the engaged. The turning point halftime show was people saying, I'd like to come find this. The Super Bowl halftime show was people who had the TV on in the background. Right. So it's not only apples to oranges. Did you see that video? It's a totally different metric. This guy's going viral because he had his role party, and he put on the 2014 Super Bowl. And nobody noticed the entire time. There's a lot of people that just tune in for the halftime show. There's a lot of people that just tune in just to watch the commercials. Not this year. Those are the most pathetic people, like, which broke in my life. Well, here's something interesting as well, because I didn't really watch a lot of the commercials, but one of the ones that I did catch was, and I guess there's been a series of these, Duncan with like Ben Affleck and this is like the third year that he's done an iteration of this. So did you notice that they brought back a lot of the 90s sitcom characters for this one? Oh really? So like Jason Alexander comes in from Seinfeld and I think I want to say they had David Schwimmer from Friends came in and Jennifer Anderson. Still alive. Maybe it was Matt LeBlanc, the Joey. And point being is they were going for that 90s nostalgia in this one piece but here's the twist right so you're going for that that 30 to 44 age demo uh that's out there like your 80s early 90s um kids but what's amazing is whose kid rocks key demo is the people in that same age range no certainly not bad bunny bad bunny's demo was because that was globalist right but the reason they had so just to finish our point we had kid rock. So we were not only did we get the views that we got, but we were also cutting into that key demo that they were looking for, which wasn't something that we really intended to do. But, you know, thinking about it now, because we're talking ratings, we're talking numbers, we're talking all this stuff, you know, you get the number two YouTube live stream of all time. And suddenly we're realizing that, wait a minute, I bet you if we broke that out by age, we probably got that key, key advertising demo that they wanted the disposable income, the elder millennials, centennials, Gen Y, that's who they were going for, and we stole a lot of those. Meanwhile Bad Bunny you know they say he the number one global streamer yeah but that because he got a targeted audience in the Spanish world And there are a lot of allegations of autoplay No, no, there certainly are. That's what it is. When I go in my Tesla and I say, like, top music, yo, there are people on there who are – you know what? I'll put it like this. Without disparaging a particular band, I'm not going to say their name, I was hanging out at MGM and a song comes on. This song on YouTube has like 1.3 million views, and it's been out for a few years. And I'm just thinking to myself, why is this song playing in a casino with 50,000 people in it? Nobody knows what the song is, and it's not a good song. It's obvious the label just said, we want this on rotation. Oh, well, like the buying, the people can buy the streams. I remember like a few years ago, my Spotify got hacked, and I was still logged in. And I would change the song, and it would autoplay. I won't say which artist it was, but it's like a rapper that had accusations of buying his streams. and would keep going back to the song you just released over and over again. And then I found, like, it showed where the active logins were, and it was in Russia. So it's like, Russians. Yeah, and then they were making a bot farm with small accounts. We were at this, we were out the other night, you know, the night before the halftime show, and I was like, oh, let's, and it was one of those places that has the Touch Tunes, like the jukebox. I'm a Touch Tunes warrior. And I was like, oh, let's get in there. Oh, it was getting hot. It was getting hot that night. Dude, it gets like you're in the trenches. It gets heated. You're absolutely in the trenches. It's called trench warfare, yeah. Yeah, we had a couple people that were – I was like, uh-uh, uh-uh. I know. The fast credits or whatever. Yeah, but then other people put their fast credits ahead of you. It just turns to an arms race. It was an arms race. It was an arms race. It was an arms race. It was an arms race. It was an arms race. It basically was. What you do – oh, go ahead. And so I – but before I went on my app, I actually just went over to the machine, and you know whose face was right there staring at me? It was Bad Bunny. of course and i was like wait like and then his album was the first thing that that popped up was bad bunny i'm like why i want to do ball to ball by kid rock and you had it was so hard to search for it and dig through and there were certain i was just like then i just got randomly like looking for different bands and it's like these are big bands who have huge followings not even there yeah yeah even if you cut through all like the politics surrounding bad bunny like it's just very nefarious because the NFL, Rock Nation, when they're choosing Bad Bunny to be the halftime show act. Jay-Z. Jay-Z runs Rock Nation. What makes it so nefarious is the halftime show is meant to just be an entertaining product for the audience at home. The reason they select Bad Bunny is because the NFL has been actively trying to expand into Latin America. That's why they play games in Mexico City. That's why they play games in Brazil. That's what I was getting at. That's why it's globalist. Yeah, so that's why they're just treating the audience as an opportunity to expand a brand. It's nefarious. I've got a question. Who's Luke Bryan? He's a country singer. Country. Country, are we okay with that? Yeah, I guess so. Who's Jamie Johnson? Don't know. He's Folk, right? Folk? Is that okay? All right. Three Doors Down, I'm okay with that. So I have a TouchTunes app, and you can, from anywhere, play music anywhere. Yeah, that's right. So I say we go to L.A. right now, and we teach these people a lesson. Yeah, just put on some Kid Rock. Wait, wait, do they have – wait, wait, Tim, do they have any locations in Puerto Rico? Me and my friends, we go to very lip-coded bars. I don't think it lets you do anything that's not near you. We would go to very lip-coded bars and just ram Morrissey down their throats. Yeah, it's only letting me do things that are directly around you. His No Chirom song. I'll tell you what. Let's see. Waffle House. Shot across the bow, you play some Morrissey, dude. Waffle House in Inwood is playing nothing. They have touch tunes at Waffle House? Yeah, bro. Dude, do you? Waffle House is where it's at. Oh, I know. You're missing out, Kate. I didn't know they had touch tunes there. The one I go to local doesn't have one. You need a soundtrack for the violence. Yeah, dude. The fight music. Break stuff by Limp Bizkit. You know what? No, I changed my mind. I figured it out. I'm going to start hitting up all of these touch tunes to make it play Bad Bunny so people get angry and start complaining about it. Yeah. Creating hate for Bad Bunny. But to your point, Jack, it is about the globalism, but more than that, it is about subverting, I think, something that is truly American, right? Like, he was speaking in Spanish. Most of your football fans don't speak Spanish. I mean, I understand that there's a lot of people that do speak Spanish in the U.S., but most of the guys that are watching football, they don't speak Spanish. 10 and 15 percent of the country. Yeah, it's not a huge percentage. The flags that he was carrying, the Puerto Rican flag with the light blue, that's the revolutionary Puerto Rican flag. That was about separating himself from America. When he was saying, oh, we're all America, all of that stuff was implying that North and South America are the real America. It was all subversion. It was all communist BS. This is open borders. This is globalism. This is everyone in America. There's a migrant caravan marching across the border. Yeah. And the flags, if you look at the flags that are at the front, those are all the comments. And there were so many conservatives saying that, oh, it wasn't political at all. I'm looking at it and like there are foreign flags marching and saying we are – There was a wedding. It's sad. There's not only people saying – conservatives saying that, but Jacobin and DSA were saying the truth. They were saying, look, this is a great political statement. This is why I actually appreciate, in a sense, Jacobin and DSA, because they're just honest. Yeah. Like, most liberals will lie to you, and they'll lie to you, whereas, like, at least the Jacobin guys are like, no, we are communists. We are here to destroy you. We want a revolution in your country. That's what we're doing. I have an ongoing subscription to Jacobin Magazine. Wow. Well, I think it's important to know what people think. 100%. 100%. But I will say this, too. Jacobin has been on the right side of some issues. we've discussed quite a bit. They're communists. I mean, they're super far left. But there have been issues of, like, government overreach that they've been on the right side of. Famously, they endorsed a policy that's actually very right-wing, which is when New York City passed a bill that every establishment has to take cash, no questions asked. It's a really right-wing policy because it was at the same time when Beto O'Rourke was like, Chase should deny purchases for AR-15s. And they're saying, well, we don't want banking controlling your purchases. New York City, they passed a bill tending for it to, like, help homeless people buy stuff or whatever. but it was actually just a really right-wing policy. Well, look, when I came up there and I, you know, I had no notes. I had no, like, direction. You know, we were, again, we just threw this thing together in three months and really less than that because we had AmFest and then Christmas and New Year's, really more like two months, and we had cast a wide net early on, you know, and then you have to drill down on venues and artists, and then we had so many artists who said they would do it, But then when it came to those rights, it didn't work out. And, you know, I'm not going to say, I'm not going to point fingers, but, you know, I think we all know who didn't want a competitive halftime show. I'll just leave it at that. And I realized, though, that the way to win this is just make it completely nonpolitical. No politics. Don't go up there and be trolling. Don't go up there and, like, talk about Trump or anything like that. Make a good product. Just make a good product. It's called the English-speaking house. All-American. All-American. They're going to cast it as a political thing anyways. The left was casting the TPUSA thing. They were saying that it's political, that it was, oh, these guys are all political. It doesn't matter what you're saying. It's just that the fact that it's people that are comfortable playing what is perceived as a right-wing event, then it's automatically political and it's blah, blah, blah. Even though the Bad Bunny one is the one that actually had all the subversion in it. It's at the stage last year with Kendrick Lamar. But ultimately, I will say, in another sense, though, in like a higher sense, it is political, right? It's political because the left in this country has separated from the traditional idea of American patriotism. And so patriotism didn't used to be political. It is now. And that's what made – it just made it the perfect storm where we rode in there and said, we are going to do it this way. We are going to have this. We're going to have Kid Rock, who's a super famous artist that really – that's what made this break containment. We broke containment where normies, people at bars, Uber drivers, whatever you call it, they're all saying, oh, the Kid Rock halftime show, the American halftime show. That's the one we watched. It's objectively – Whoa, whoa, whoa. How come you didn't get Creed? and that Alter Bridge is on tour in Europe and they were literally in Spain but you're getting them next year for sure we're going to see we're going to see what we do we're going to see what we do I will be disappointed just so long as you don't have any again though but what I'm saying though is here's the thing when it comes to any one artist it was a huge learning curve for me on so much of this. I should have called you to explain how all the rights work to everybody. It's not even up to the artists. Of course. It's about the people who own the rights to the song. So it's like, what if we had gotten, well, just say Kid Rock. So it's like, Kid Rock comes on, he says he wants to come, but then he doesn't own the rights to Ball with the Ball because Universal does. And then what if Universal says, oh, you can't play Ball with the Ball at Turning Point? I got to pitch for you. And it's like, what do you do then? I think you guys should actually do a festival. next year and the headline show should be the halftime but there can be stuff before and after that's that was my look the brainstorming that was one of the ideas that i had early on we wanted to do it outside we wanted to do it with a huge audience it worked out the way that it did this time because we had a limited time that's something that we're actively looking at by the way though i i think i already do have the venue and remains will play and i can i can announce the venue tonight actually because and i'll explain i'll explain why because we were looking at youtube live streams over the years and the record tim do you know what the number one youtube live stream of all time was or currently is well youtube live stream that's the uh the moon lander right is the indian moon lander is an indian moon lander so you know you're going up against the subcontinent one what is it 1.6 1.7 billion people you know a billion people so what i've so what i want to do in india no no we're doing it on the moon Modi's going to be there Modi's going to open it up So they all tune in So he's going to give him We'll have like Ravi Shankar Or Nuska Shankar, his daughter Come on out It's going to be phenomenal She'll be the opener And then we get that audience And then boom We totally lock it in I think if you did a music festival I'd love to do a festival I'd love to do a festival Because right now is the time to start planning for it And what do you think Like, big acreage, multi-stage. Yeah, I mean, look, if you're going to do... Magaroo. Oh, that'd be sick. If you do... Magaroo. No, but not political. No politics. You want to do two stages so that way you can have one stage being set up while the other one's going, whether they be end-to-end or next to it, both of them. Actually, that might work better because this was the reason, and, you know, Cat's out of the bag because Kid Rock, and there was this whole controversy. Not lip-syncing, by the way. I'm there. I have video from the set. I have the masters. I was watching it. I could, I posted this smears is not lip syncing. There was an audio sync issue. Yes. For a portion of it where you can see as it's not just his vocals that are out of, out of sync. Everything is out of sync. Like if you actually understand how music works, you could see the drums are out of sync. The guitars are out of sync. Everything's out of sync in that moment because it was a sync issue, but I've got backstage footage where you can see on the closed circuit that he's just singing like normal and he's right there. So he let the cat out of the bag that it was pre-recorded. And when he says pre-recorded, that doesn't mean the music was pre-recorded. That means the show was pre-recorded. And the reason we pre-recorded is exactly what Phil just said. It was about set-up time. Because Bad Bunny, think of it. And Tim, you just showed that video where they have to come out, they have to set up the grasslands or whatever. And that all takes time, whereas we were able to do more show in the same amount of time because we were able to eliminate that set-up breakdown time because we could just show act to act to act to act. And, Phil, obviously because you put on shows, I'm sure you noticed that right away. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So festival, right? Multi-day? But multiple stages could do. Multiple stages. Two days? How many days? I mean, if you do two days, you're doing all right. I mean, usually if you're going to do two days, you're going to have two days with two stages. You're talking about probably 20 to 30 bands would be what you're looking for. Let's do it. We'll get the Defiant to play. There you go. Yeah. Patriot Fest. Patriot Fest. Patriot Fest. Trying to avoid the political stuff here, guys. I say you call it Halftime Fest, and the point is you just get big bands. And then the message is not overtly political. It's just we want a good show from bands that we know and love. That's it. But here's the thing, dude. If you're booking big bands, Kid Rock, you're going to sell tickets. You don't need to make a book. I don't think – I mean, look, the proof of concept, it's clearly there. And what we showed – and look, and this is where I talked about how the gatekeeping definitely affected us early on. but it ended up in a much better spot because now when you see the numbers like that 40 50 million all in on on a wing and a prayer and we're slapping this thing together like literally as we go along that there's a lot of people that want to be associated with that amount of eyeballs and when it comes down to it tim it's your point it it is about money it is about advertisers it is about you know people who want to get involved now i'll say and you notice we didn't we didn't run ads we didn't run ads we kept it as c3 we i mean we ran obviously a charlie tribute we talked about our own org that was it if you guys launch if this was to be a for-profit venture based off the views that you got and next you did a festival based off those views is a hundred million dollar operation overnight i'm not an exaggeration a festival that can pull in those kind of live numbers you think about the amount of sponsors each stage is going to be able to get You think about – when I say $100 million, I mean it's a sell. It's a value of. So I'm picturing that if you started selling advertisements – first you need to plan how many stages, where it's going to be, what's it going to look like, which includes the live stream with an estimated $40 million to $50 million, probably more next year. Do it exactly on the site of Woodstock 99. Yeah. Oh, in February? You're going to do that? You're going to bring in like $20 million or $30 million in paid sponsorships in advance. And so festivals like this, based off the conventions and stuff that I've seen in the sales that they've pulled in based on their numbers, this is like a $100 million business. At the end of the day, it's as amazing as all that is. Look, we have to make sure that whatever we do, we stay true to the mission, right? And that's Charlie's mission. Because Charlie – this is one of the things that people don't realize. Like this wasn't like, like, yeah, I had the tweet and all, but like it was Charlie's, he always talked about the Super Bowl halftime show. And he would say, he would say, this isn't family friendly. You can't show this to little kids. He would call it, this is debauchery. He called it sexual anarchy in 2022. And his whole point was, you've got to have something that showcases the type of, we have a clip of him that we're saying, showcase the type of virtues that you want to see throughout the country. And so what do we have? We have rock music. We had country. We had Kid Rock preaching the gospel, by the way. I don't think anybody saw that coming, which, man, it was so hard for me to not talk about that because I was sitting backstage with all my eyes out. I'm just going to tell you the truth. When he hit that song, when he showed the picture of Charlie and he started singing about, hey, when your dad asked you to go fishing, why don't you say yes because one day you can't. Lost it. Oh, Kellen helped pull something together. Looks like we're good to go. Let me grab this. Uh-oh. No, no, no, uh-oh. No, uh-oh. Big uh-oh. No, uh-oh, bro. Kellen's cooking. It's all uh-oh. Kellen's cooking, bro. Oh, Starbase, Texas. There you go. Oh. Well, because, like, the halftime show. It's the wrong date if you're going to do the Super Bowl next year. And on the note of, like, the virtues we want to see from the halftime show, Like, this doesn't necessarily have to be, like, we get around and, like, show, like, let's get married and have kids. Like, it should celebrate, like, American vitality, the essence of America. Real quick, this is a parody of Bonnaroo. Yeah. Yeah, okay. Yeah, that's what he was, that's what he sent me. But the point, I mean, my point is, it's like, yeah, you don't have to be so overt like that. Just celebrate, like, American vitality. Yeah, it's, but that's what it is through art, through music. The last, like. Well, and you got what – and I think a lot of people got what Kid Rock was doing with the way that he did the transition of where people were saying, okay, first he comes out with ball to ball. That's how you met him. He was Kid Rock. And he was introduced as Kid Rock. But then Kid Rock goes away. And then you get Antonio and Allison Marin, the phenomenal – the string section comes out. And then they have this moment showcasing transition, right? That was the whole point of transition, like a real transition, not like the crazy one that we talked about. Then he gets reintroduced. The same guys who come up, they reintroduce him as Robert Ritchie. And then Robert Ritchie comes out and plays till you can. And so the point was, you know, it's him saying, look, this was me in the 90s, you know, top of the world. I've got the girls. I've got the fame. I've got the Jets. I've got everything I want, you know. but I don't have Christ and I'm missing something. And that's what he finds. And he's talking about second chances. And he's obviously, you know, he's singing about himself. He's singing about, I found Christ. And so you're looking at his salvation story and he's offering that to so many people. And I didn't even get that. Cause I had heard, you know, what do you mean? We're getting a string section and Kid Rock wants a cello. Like what? Oh my God, bro. Wait, I said a vision. And then, and then we put it all together. It was phenomenal. Get a vision. We have to. I just, I had a vision. I had a vision of All That Remains playing main stage, and Mike Lindell comes out. Yeah. And right at one of, like, the biggest screams, Mike Lindell just makes it. Roar! Bro. Every patron. I'd hand over the mic. I'd hand over the mic for Mike Lindell. We've got to jump to the story. This is from the Air Post. We need Mike Lindell in Drop D. Let's go. Other Mike Lindell. Guys, we got the story. This is from the New York Post. Gun person in a dress behind Canada's deadliest shooting in decades. Horrified Tumblr Ridge students reveal. There's a mass shooting the other day. A transgender individual killed several people, including himself. And when the story broke, the media was calling the shooter a woman in a dress. Which immediately people said, that's a weird way to describe a woman. The New York Post then said female in a dress because they changed it because people don't know what the left is trying to convey. Or they do. They're lying. whatever then news broke that in fact it was a biological male who identified as transgender and the story here is i mean the tragedy is a tragedy it's sad but the story here is the cover up yeah the what was the police chief who said gun wait by the way though the the i think it also just broke that he actually he killed his own family yeah first no that was that was in the inner story reporting yeah i've i've been running around so it was it was the police chief said gun person right yeah that's what was so crazy because we were trying to stitch together the story this morning like okay what's confirmed what's not yeah and i was i was kind of like not but all the local like british columbia papers were like talking to the guy's family they're like they're talking to classmates and they're like yes this is him but the police just refused to actually admit it so you had again you had like the western standard they're a large paper in british columbia like yeah we talked to the classmates 100 this guy no doubt about it but like if you're in the media and you're commentating on this, you still can't go all in because you still need the permission from the local police, but they were just all out on defense. And even afterwards where the local police was like, well, we still want to honor this person's gender identity. Why do you need to respect a mass shooter? Right. Yeah. Well, because keep in mind that you're in Canada. This is not a place where you have the same kind of freedom of speech, the same protections. Right. You know, we've seen people in the UK go to jail for inciting hatred inciting discrimination. And so it could easily be something where they're actually worried about, you know, the media in Canada getting fines for not referring to them by the proper pronouns. Oh, this is the exact reason why we can't take any part of Canada as a 51st day. I don't care what I'm still on that. We are not taking any part of Canada. No, we conquer and subjugate, Phil. Subjugate. Strip their rights. Yes. There's no voting rights in Canada. What we do is, here's the plan. After we take all the territory, we treat them as though they're illegal immigrants. Deport them from their homes. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Democrat strategy. They're able to work jobs that we don't want, but they don't get to vote, and they don't have access to public accommodations. That would be exciting, some white illegal immigrants. That would be fun. No, no. Did you guys see the story with the Irish guy? Yeah. Oh, yeah. That was so dumb. The left is like, do you know the story? No. Irish guy has been here for like 20-something years, and he's been locked up in detention. And he's like, I have a work permit to be here, and I'm married to an American citizen. Okay, he entered here on the visa waiver program. And do you know why it's called the visa waiver program? Well, certain countries don't. You are waiving your rights. When you come to the United States under a visa waiver, and they have this in Europe, we do it too, and we go over there. Yeah. You don't need a visa to enter. In lieu of applying for a visa, you waive your rights to judicial process in the event you are going to be removed. 90 days in the country, we can kick you out whenever we want. That's the trade-off. If you don't want to deal with that, you can apply for a visa. They have business. They have tourist visas. You can apply. And then we can challenge those. So this guy has been here for 20 years on an expired visa. He ended in 2009. And now he's like, it's torture. I'm being tortured. And it's like, you can literally go home any time. The only reason you're still here is because you're refusing to leave. Yeah. Yeah, we don't want him here. You can go to Ireland. I remember that story broke. And even me, like the most avow, like pro-ice person out there, I saw the initial headline. I'm like, OK, that's a little weird. Like, what's going on here? And then you just scratched the surface a little bit. It's like a guy came in 09 for a 90-day visa and overstayed it. And then he's refusing to, like, go back to Ireland. It's insane. And he's demanding a court process which was denied. Nope. The court actually said because he entered on a visa waiver, he explicitly includes a waiver of your rights to due process in the event deportation is sought. Yeah. So it's just – it pisses me off to no end that they're like, this poor man, he's been here and he's Irish. And I'm like, bro, he committed a crime. Yeah. That's it. He can go back to Ireland and reapply. I got no beef, but he's got to go back to Ireland and reapply. Ireland's also like the easiest country to get an American visa for. They literally have a working holiday visa where you can get, like, a two-year visa. If you're Irish, you can get, like, a two-year visa. You come here, and it's a working visa for two years. And he, like, didn't even take that up. I don't think that he should be allowed back. Well, no. I mean, once you violate your visa, you should be on blacklist. You're saying Seacott? I mean, you know. Patriot. Maybe not for life, but, you know, for a period. For a period of time until he's corrected. Yeah, and he, like, played it fast and loose with how he got married, too. Like, he got married, like, really quickly out of nowhere. Yes. And also, by the way, if he got married, why did he not apply for naturalization? Why did he go back and then apply and go back? He didn't go back to Ireland. That's the problem. Right. He's been here for 20 – no, he's been here for 16 years. He was in 2009, yeah. Yeah, he's been here for 16 years, and he only recently applied and had a meeting. And they said, yeah, too bad. You've got to go. And he's fighting it, and he's like, please, get me out of this detention center. And it's like, yes, your plane to Ireland awaits, sir. Get out. Get out. I was amazed when I found out about, like, this is actually kind of an issue with, like, Irish illegal immigrants. If you go to, like, Woodside in Queens, you'll see these really old Irish people that are there. And they entered illegally in, like, the 80s. And they've been here, like, the whole time. They're in the troubles. Wow. I know. It's exciting. I'm like, white illegals. It's such a mystery to see them. I'm like, did you like the Bad Bunny Show? You've got to ask these questions. Get out. Get out. Wait, wait. I have to ask you the ubiquitous question about the Bad Bunny Show. Right. And I'm sure you've seen this discourse about how he showcased so many facets of his culture that are totally unaware by white people. That we have no idea what it's like seeing someone sleep across, a kid sleep across two to three chairs at a wedding. That we have no idea what it's like. You see, it's totally unique because in their culture, they actually really value food and music and family. And dinner is like a daily thing. It's totally unique, by the way. Yeah, literally. They take traits that are very common among the lower middle class or lower class, and then they attribute it to some sort of unique ethnic identity. There was this tweet going viral. Yeah, Tim, I don't know if you saw this tweet that was going viral where I guess it was some girl. And she was like, this is the most Latin thing ever where it's a little kid sleeping across two to three chairs at a wedding. And it's like, isn't that just being a kid at a family event that goes like – Again, this is the point that these people are – the problem I see with a lot of these liberals is that they come from these insular environments. like when they had that whole campaign about the talk and the white liberals were like, black people have to tell their kids to obey the police. And I'm just like, that's true for literally every single person. My white mind can't comprehend this. What? I've told everybody that watches this show multiple times, do what the cops say or the cops are going to shoo you. No. Phil, you're giving the talk. I know, right? But like what Jack's saying is they'll do this thing where it'll be like, you know, in Lebanese culture, we have this really unique thing. We get together for a meal and it's like a tradition for us. You're describing dinner. I saw someone in the comments. They were like from some – it was like some East Asian country and they were saying – and there was a foreign student. It was in the U.S. and he had just lost his grandfather. And then the father was explaining to the American, you see, he's really sad because in our culture, we really value our grandparents. So it's – just so you understand that. Well, I'll be honest, like the way Americans shove their parents and grandparents in homes, they sort of leave. There was a comedian, Stavros – I don't know how to say his last name – Heikos or whatever. And he did make a good point where he's like there's wasp culture and then there's everything else is kind of the same. And it's kind of true. It is kind of true. To a degree, when you do see these sorts of behaviors, if you're like a wasp, like a very old-school American, that is kind of foreign. But it's like everybody else combined. There's some truth. But I mean, I'll say I'll even point out and I'll I'll I'll play devil's advocate on the on the, you know, the the senior homes is that that is something because that is that is wasp culture because of them wanting to be more independent. Yeah. Right. They don't want to be like the burden. Right. Yeah. On on the children. Whereas in most other cultures, like I'm Polish, obviously, and in Polish culture, it's in Eastern European culture, it's very much the traditional, you know, multi-generational family household. Yeah. The grandparents take care of the little kids. It's a whole thing. And by the way, though, there's – what's like the number one book series in the UK right now is the Thursday Murder Club, right? Right. Where it's like a bunch of seniors running – going around and solving murders because they live at a home together. whereas like in other cultures that like that just wouldn't even exist that whole dynamic doesn't exist yeah there's some truth that like the united states because of like our founding founding culture being like super like hyper calvinist is we have this like very uniquely individualistic culture and so to like the jack's point i remember a few years ago this discourse started on the right where they're like you know the nuclear family is actually bad and we should like embrace multi-generational living and i'm like but we're we never have like the united states has always been a very individualistic culture that's why we're so awesome that's why every american like i love this description of americans that we're all temporarily embarrassed millionaires yeah like that is that is the reason why we like are like let's just go to the moon like these sorts of things that actually is like a very intrinsic to america and by extension i guess like the uk and australia they're kind of losing it um so you do see some of these things introduced and they're like passed off as conservative or right wing but it's like it's just foreign to the united states and like the way it's being implemented it's like once you see it you're like well that's not quite us. There's a reason why America is so unique. So yeah. And multi-generational, it's like to Jack's point, like old people don't want to be perceived as a burden on their kids. Yeah. Which is totally different. Or actually, you know, somebody preserving too. So somebody would, uh, this actually, there's, there's an element of this in the Nancy Guthrie case and that's obviously going on. It's horrific. It's so terrible. But people were pointing out, I guess the first night, like the last night which she was seen, they said she took an Uber to the son and daughter's house for dinner. Yeah. And, and I heard a lot of people saying, well, wait a minute there, you know, the son and daughter only live a couple of minutes a day. Why wouldn't they pick her up? And, but it goes back to the same culture that we're talking about. Don't want to be seen as a burden, want to demonstrate independence. And that this is, it's, it's, it's just part of that culture. Yeah. And it's not something that you can, you can change. And also when you, again, when you bring in people who are from different cultures, Yes, they can assimilate to that to an extent. But when you bring so many people in who don't have that culture, that don't have any history of that, they don't assimilate because it is totally foreign way of thinking and way of believing. So to answer the question, it's like, why would you take that Uber? Because that's the culture. Yeah. I mean, you can argue the merits of it. But like John Doyle made this point. It's a really good point. He was talking about how his neighbor's house burnt down and the whole neighborhood came together. Like, we're going to help you rebuild. He said his neighbor's house on fire. John Doyle. Yeah. I'm a patriot, but it's a little strange. But anyway, so his neighbor's house burns down, and he's like, the whole neighborhood is going to rally. They're like, we'll help you out. We'll help you rebuild. And the guy refused to get any help. He's like, I'll just handle it myself. I don't want to be like a burden. Exactly. That's a very American way of operating. It's like, I'm going to pull myself up my bootstraps. Like, thank you for the help. But like, I got this. Yep. That's changing. And again you can argue if that good or bad but that is uniquely American EBT So so we accept EBT was printed on the Bad Bunny set Yeah See that Yeah On that bodega that they dancing in front of It's like that old AOC tweet. It's like if that were a halftime show. It actually had the we accept EBT right there. And then people were saying, and then like Nina Turner on Twitter and a bunch of people were saying, you need to put that because that's our culture. Because that's our culture. It's like, so wait, you're. It's called deficit culture. You're cheering this? You're celebrating this. Whereas, as I'm sure Tate knows, that in white American culture, typically it's seen, and I think a lot of people, or at least traditionally, it used to be seen that that was shameful. People would say, I don't care if we don't have money. We're not getting on food stamps. It's embarrassing. It's shameful. You won't do it. I did this video the other day breaking down why communism is dumb. It was a slow news day. Wait, really? I've never heard anyone say that before. Indeed. Whoa, take, dude. The easiest way to explain it is that the phrase from each according to their ability to each according to their need posits that people who can produce by working extra hard should, and people who can't produce enough to survive should not. And so the reason why communism always fails is because the people who can produce in excess have no reason to, and the people who cannot are given food from everybody else. Yep. So you have an expansion of a deficit population, a population that consumes while not producing enough. This is the end. Humanity survives as social beings. The more humans there are doing work, it's an exponential gain on the ease of survival. Communism takes away the incentive to produce, but everybody still must consume unless they die. What we have right now is this hybrid. We don't live in a capitalist society. It's called a mixed economy. That's because around half – the country is 50-50 socialist, communist versus capitalist. People say it's always a capitalist country. No, it's not. It's a crony capitalist. No, no, no. We're literally called a mixed economy because half our money goes to social services and half our money is kept. The problem with that is we have built a country with a large deficit population. They don't produce as much as they consume. Sooner or later in that system, albeit in a mixed economy, it'll go slower than a communist country. The people who do produce eventually start giving up. And then there is no excess. So now you only have people producing at cost, people at deficit. You get revolution. You get chaos. Yeah. Well, that's what you see. Like every time in the U.N. they have these like they don't have any implication, but they're like, should food be a human right? The United States always votes no because we're just saying like, no, you're not entitled to someone else's labor. That's demonic. That's a positive right. And a positive right means you're entitled to someone's labor because, again, someone has to produce that food. And so if that's a human right, if food is a human right, that means that if your human rights being infringed on, then you could put the gun to someone and say, give me some food. So it's like at every level, it's just pernicious. This is why these systems, again, were created for certain people in certain places at certain times. And we're now learning that they can't just be applied across the board to everyone. It doesn't work. You have hacker cultures like Tim was talking about earlier. You have cultures that want the socialism. It's like a gimme, gimme, gimme kind of culture. You have cultures where they put face in front of truth. They will lie. They will cheat, et cetera. Hacker cultures. And they'll use the language of saying this is a right to feel that they're entitled to whatever it is they want. That's what CIS, Center for Immigration, said. They just combed through the census data, and they found that the majority of foreign-born Americans were on some form of welfare. I have a right to that jacket that Jack is wearing. It's clothing. I believe I have a gun somewhere, Jack. But however, Tim, my name is on it right there. I have a right to promo code POSO. Promo code POSO. Walking in body. In fact, I'd say a couple of pillows to get this jacket, Tim. Everybody has a right to use promo code POSO. Whoa. Well, a right and a duty, by the way. So true. Patriotic duty. The Patriots use promo code POSO. You know who's promo code Tanya? Communists. All right, everybody. We're going to go to the Superchance and Rumble rants before the uncensored portion of the show. Before we do, head over to TimCast.com. Click join us and get in that Discord server. We got a big community of tens of thousands of people. They are hanging out. They are friends. Community is our strength. These leftists got these big networks. We don't need to create any weird police-infringing crime networks like they have, but community is still powerful because when disaster strikes and emergency strikes, you need to know who your friends are, where they are. And there's a support network. It's more than that. You guys share ideas. You guys call into the uncensored portion of the show exclusively on rumble premium. As a discord member, you help support the work that we do and you're deeply involved. We've got a bunch of stuff in the works. Our coffee shop should be opening very soon. No kidding. Like legit. We're having one of our final walkthroughs. Very excited. And that means our social club events will be coming up very soon as well. Very, very excited. At the same time, I mean this kind of in a weird way as a promo, but it is our security issues have not been abated. And it's massively stressful. And we are admittedly hanging by a thread, but we're doing everything we can to keep things going. So if you support the work that we do and you want to help us to continue doing it, TimCast.com, join our Discord community. I'm going to tell you guys right now the cost of security. Jack knows this. It's like if we were to try and do full standard security, we need $3 million to $5 million. dollars yeah it's it's bonkers people have no idea they have no idea one 24-hour rotation is 700 grand a year which and you know not to get into it too much but at turning points main headquarters you know when when charlie was murdered um we were actually in the process of putting up finally a full security gate and fencing and perimeter with like a motorized gate and all the rest of it. And there is there is now 24 seven security. So I will just stress this again. You know, the cost that you guys have now, especially now with all the stupid insanity conspiracy theories. It's bonkers, dude. We're going over these numbers and a single the low end, the low end. And this is because of insurance. And it's because you need to understand one security guy. It's not that you have one security guy for 24 hours. No, you have four people per day because of shift overlap, because you can't have gaps in your security. Now imagine you've got a multi-building media company with several shows, and you need four or five people per day, 24 hours for maximum security after someone shot at your property. It's nuts. That's why we went to Florida and we were trying to work something out and figure out if there was a way to do a bigger deal with Rumble and do something. We don't know what's going on with that. I don't know if it's going to happen. And we're still navigating this. But full disclosure, full transparency, it's bonkers. And right now we actually – we have – let me just say we have maximum security, and it is a doozy. It is. So TimCast.com, support the work that we do by joining the Discord community and making sure it's possible. All right, let's grab some Rumble rants and chats. We got Perceptual Jonathan. He says, Poso couldn't even get Creed? What's the point of a halftime show? Great job putting the show together, Jack. Well, we did go over it. Next year. No, I mean, when we announced, you know, I didn't even look at tour dates and things like that. And I have to follow the law. There's, like, legal stuff I got to deal with. I need lawyers. And by the way, the lawyers have been on me. Like, you know, we couldn't even say the word Super Bowl. in the run-up to it. Do you know that? Really? Because they would consider that using their trademark in promotion of our show, and therefore we could trademark infringement. That's a liability. It's like everything. I'm like, am I allowed to say my name? Am I allowed? No. It's wild. It's wild. Josh 2371 says, I'm going to visit Tokyo, Japan next year. Do's and don'ts. And suggestion for SightSing, do find a small hole-in-the-wall karaoke bar and sing songs with some drunk Japanese locals. I recommend it. I love Japan. Do not do what that one TikTok guy was doing and run around and harassing people on the subway. Giant Somalia, yeah. Such a good name. Run around and blasting people like that because he went to jail. Be respectful. Japan's awesome. Be respectful. And it's probably my favorite country that's not the U.S. Like, it's great. Tokyo's great. Have fun. Have you been to Poland? Pardon me? But have you been to Poland? I've been to Poland one time. I went to War Claw. We played there. Tokyo is massive. Yeah. You're not prepared. I think the biggest I've ever been to is Bangkok. I think Bangkok's like, is it like the biggest urban metro? No, Tokyo was the biggest until very recently. Jakarta just overtook it. Oh, did it? Really? Yeah, like very recently. So I've been to Tokyo a couple times. What has Jakarta ever produced? Nothing. Tokyo is awesome. I love Tokyo, man. I went to Fukushima as well. The crazy thing with Tokyo, one thing you have to consider, it's very interesting, is there's no trash cans anywhere. So whenever you need to carry it with you. You need a little bag. Yeah, bring a little bag with you. What time is it in Tokyo right now? It's crunch time. 12 or 13 hours. It's always crunch time. It's 11 a.m. It's morning, yeah. So when we relocate to Tokyo, then we'll be doing the show. At 8 a.m.? Well, the serious edge. Yeah. I mean, I lived in Shanghai for two years. It's similar size-wise, but I feel like Tokyo is more compact than Shanghai. Shanghai, a lot of the downtown is wider streets, broader avenues. We would do Timcast IRL first thing in the morning, and then I would record my morning segments at night. Yeah. If we went to Japan. Let's do it. It's like a week. It'd be fun. Or Goon Nation. Goon Nation. Yeah, we've got to work that out. We've got to work out Goon Nation. Japan's got a weird – If you go to Osaka, my favorite thing – one of my favorite places I've ever been – and I would say this is actually kind of a religious pilgrimage in a way. If you go to Osaka, they have the Drunken Clam from Family Guy. Some guy just – he got really into Family Guy, and he opened a bar on, like, the fifth floor of a building called Drunken Clam. And it's amazing. You go in there, there's just pictures of Peter Griffin just, like, glued to the wall and stuff. It's beautiful. You should go there. It's wonderful. All right. We've got Pico Rorad. He says, I used Call Sheet for the first time since I saw they were a sponsor. It really is crazy how if you put money on things you're knowledgeable about, it feels like printing money. That's what I'm saying, dude. The Trump bad bunny thing actually went up, and I'm going to take credit for that. Will Trump say bad bunny this month? You want to pull this up? Actually, the odds increased from the other day. So look at this. There's Tim Gaston IRL. I take full credit for that. The odds improved from it dropped down in the day to 24, and then it went back up later. 34? Wow. Yeah. I still think he says it. I still think he says it. Bad Bunny. Bad Bunny. No, because I could see somebody asking him about it. You notice Bad Bunny's been real quiet this week. Yeah. He deleted his Instagram, too. Yeah, deleted the Instagram. Very weird. You know, just no statements, no interviews. no the buzz right the buzz around it is weird yeah and you know people it's funny enough i was at the so we and it was pre-scheduled it wasn't like a thing um i was at the hispanic prosperity gala last night had a little little little dance with james o'keefe that was getting down you know god forbid a couple of white boys have a little motion you know left and the left hates that um and you know we had so nacho who is an incredibly famous venezuelan singer got up and just crushed it amazing and i was i was so they were all coming up to me and were getting asked by media i was getting asked about bad bunny and everything and i was talking to everyone who was there so like what did you guys think and i had people coming up to me saying like from puerto Rico saying, like, don't don't judge us by him. Like, we're not like that. We actually love America. We love being a part of America. You know, America gives them like a hundred billion dollars a year. I love it, too. With eight to one federal dollars. Well, and look, you should move there as no income tax. And as a Navy officer. Right. You know, I look at it from the geostrategic perspective that, you know, Puerto Rico gives you that access to the Caribbean, gives you those basing rights. You don't have to worry about treaties or anything. Same with Guam and the Philippines. We could still keep the Virgin Islands, though. Yes, same with Guam. Yeah, but you've already got all the infrastructure there. It's larger. It's got a larger base for it. I'm so annoyed. I want to kind of lose. No, it's like – yeah, but they were legitimately saying like he's an embarrassment. I think Tony Hinchcliffe has been extremely vindicated for his little joke at the Trump rally. His joke was always right. Yeah. He was commenting on the fact that they have overflowing landfills. Yeah. And that's a well-known thing. And they attacked him for it. And then later on, he was like, am I the only one who knows that in the news are talking about their landfill problems? That was the joke. Yeah. I have a really good friend. He's a Normandy. He's Puerto Rican. And when he first saw that, like, oh, a comedian at the Trump rally was mocking Puerto Rico, he's like, that's terrible. And then he watched the joke and he's like, yeah, that's that's probably true. so Tony Hinchcliffe total vindication yeah he was and they used the Puerto Rican peso in Puerto Rico data it was US dollar I was there though at MSG I remember when he said the joke by the way the whole crowd was like oh no hey guys guys guys so yesterday the volume for will Trump say bad bunny wasn't it 200,000 or something or was it like 280,000 I don't know. It's gone up to $400,000 since we did the show. And that's all that matters. You see, I haven't wagered anything. My cash is still the same. I am not going to wager on this. My question was just like, oh, is it 32% now? Is this changing in real time? Jack, weren't you saying you were going to ask the president to say the phrase Bad Bunny for no reason? I did not say that. I certainly did not call him on his personal private cell phone number and ask him. No, I was trying to see if we could get him to comment on our show, but of course, which hasn't come up yet, I'm told that they were going to play it on the plane at one point when he was flying up. I don't know if that ever actually happened. I'm going to say this. I genuinely believe Trump will say bad money. I think he will too. It's surprising to me that it's actually only at 33% right now. It did go up quite a bit since we did the show, but I want to stress this. I'm not telling anybody to buy these shares. Do not take this advice. I have no guarantee it's going to happen. But the fact is Trump hasn't made a major comment on the Turning Point halftime show, which was massive to 45, 40, 50 million people. Trump is going to see that Trump wants to be involved with his base. He wants to shout these things out to show that he's active. I think there's a high likelihood that he does address Turning Point's halftime show. In doing so, he's going to mention Bad Bunny because that was the conflict. It's just been so much in the news. Even though it's not a Trump thing, right? It's sort of got the DNA, the fingerprints, if you will, of MAGA, Americanism, globalism, all of these things tied together. Obviously, he's close with Kid Rock, their friend. Exactly. What happens if Kid Rock pops over by the White House and asks him, like, hey, did you see my show? And he's hanging out. Trump's going to say Bad Bunny. That's why I think it's crazy they're giving it a 33. it's based on what people are wagering on and people are wagering no he won't even though he already truthed about the show so you're saying they're selling dollars for 33 cents he didn't say Bad Bunny he talked about the halftime show that's why I think it's just crazy how low it is originally it was a lot higher before the Super Bowl it was super 85 and it's dropped down that's nuts to me don't listen to me, don't buy any of this stuff don't wager on stuff because I don't know what's going to happen I just think these odds are weird So anyway, let's grab some more of these ranch. See what we've got going on. NNY says, Tate, stop slacking and get back on for daily at noon. I told Serge I can't answer his questions until you tell me what to think. Dude, Serge, I will tell you what to think if you do it at noon. Today, it was great. We had Lisa on. Lisa was the guest. We talked about women. The women are out of control. They are. All that's going on. Lisa is like the spiciest person at TimCast. She really is. We have to keep telling her to stop saying to kill people. She's great. Yeah, I was like, Lisa, we can't kill every woman. That's not a – You can't say that on the show. It's not going to play in Peoria. I had some rumble, so you can say whatever you want, I guess. It's a good pitch. Tune in noon live for Lisa's proposals on what to do with the WQ, the woman question. That's very interesting. Some of her thoughts. All right. We love Lisa. Dadosa Prime says, Phil, what is the AI agent? I want to do a fake news show like IRL with characters, mythical creatures, from my characters in books and TTRPG Modern Mythical. Go DM me at those prime and X. Yeah, it's a malt bot. Is he calling us creatures? Yeah, they're basically mini LLMs you run on your own computers. And you can tell, like, hey, I need food reservations for a nice restaurant. Find me a good place to eat. I got to go to work, but tell me when you find it. And then you'll come back home, and it'll be like, I got your reservations at the steakhouse at this time. Crazy. Crazy. Honestly, if they can get that right for hotels, flights, that kind of thing, it would be amazing. They will. The cost of keeping an account with, I think it's ChetGPT or whoever it is, the cost of having an account is like $200 a month, and the people that use these generally use them for their work, and they're like, it makes me so efficient that it's totally worth it. All right, let's make one. It's basically Anthropic or OpenAI using their keys. Wow, dude. Yeah. I'm looking at a Mac Mini that I can run, getting a Mac Mini just for. Hey, why don't we get one here? You want to get one here? We got servers and stuff. Why don't we get a little guy? Like 500 bucks. Let's do it. Let's do it. We're getting a little guy. We're going to get a MaltBot. We'll have our own internal TimCast hell, and then we're going to go in, and he's going to gas us. Phil's going to be like, the door's locked, and it's going to be like, I'm sorry, Phil. I can't let you do that. You can set it up so it can call you. You already used to that. Yo, look at the odds on him saying bad money just going up because we're talking about it. It's free money, man. It's free money. It's at 35% already. I'm telling you guys not to buy it. Actually, I'm not telling you to do anything. Just don't listen to me. I'm not saying he will or won't. If you're going to buy it, just turn the stream off. Just turn it off. But I do think it's interesting, too, because I will just say this. It's funny that we're addressing it in the fact that Jack is literally saying he hopes Trump comments on the TPUSA halftime show. I mean, it just – it's something that I think that he would do. And I put it this way. When he sees something put on big numbers like that and it's associated with, quote-unquote, people he views as like his guys, his side. Not only that. The type of thing he talks about all the time. I did very well with Hispanics, by the way. We're talking also about a year from now. Trump has an opportunity. Does he want to be involved in something that got such massive play? He didn't go to the Super Bowl. He did not. And presidents, you know, they usually don't, right? But he went last year. Is that what it was? I believe he did, yeah. Well, because this year was in San Francisco. Yeah. Here's the opportunity for him to go somewhere to massive fanfare and celebration and cheers to 50 million viewers. Where is it next year? You know? Oh, it just went down. It went down. Super. Oh. As soon as I said don't do it, people were like, I'm out. Guys, don't listen to me. I'm not giving you financial advice. I can't tell you what will happen. No, this is entertainment advice. This is pure entertainment. All right, let's see what we got here. Let's see. Someone says, Ice in Little Mogadishu, new game. 2027's in Eaglewood, California. Disgruntled Vet says, Tom McDonald should have been at your halftime to do his Charlie Kirk song at minimum. That would have been an easy win. I think maybe you guys had Tom McDonald next year, you know. Yeah, again, you know, with a lot of this stuff, there are so many people that I wish could have been there, right? Tom would certainly be one of them. And a lot of this stuff, again, it just comes down to scheduling. It comes down to, in some cases, contracts, licenses. I know this kind of sounds like, eh, post is going corporate. It's like, no, but literally, Phil, you get this. There are times where even the art, I'm not saying that this would happen with Tom. I'm just saying that there are times where an artist wants to do something and just can't. Yep, absolutely. That's a very, very normal thing. I'd love to go and play the show, but we just can't. There's a couple of shows that we got offered in the fall that we were like, oh, they were like, you want to do these? And I was like, we just can't just because of scheduling stuff that we got planned. Well, even with venues, right? So to do something like this, it's not just the day of. You need to put on something like this, or certainly if we did a festival, you need a week. And so you have to find a big venue that has a week open, which typically those places get booked a year in advance. Charlie used to do this all the time. And we'd be like, oh, let's do this thing over here. And we'd be like, Charlie, you can't just up and do that. You're not making reservations at the, you know. It's not like a hotel reservation. Yeah, right. So. All right. We got this from Austin Shearer. He says, fellas, using my first ever super chat to announce the wife and I just came home with our first baby. Hey. Little Liliana. Congratulations. Welcome to the world, little patriot. A lot of work to do. You missed the halftime show. You're late. Oh, wait. Josh. But eligible for Trump account. Let's go. That's a massively important thing. I mean, it's like an IRA for kids, basically. But when you sign up, you get $1,000 just deposited like that. Wow. Literally for free. And one of the best things about it, in my opinion, is it will give young people that are 18, 19, 20, whatever, it'll give them some kind of buy-in to the capitalist system. Right now there's young people that don't have anything. And they're like, well, why do I care about capitalism? Why do I care about property rights? I don't own anything. Well, if you're 18 years old and you got 50 grand or 100 grand or whatever it ends up turning into, then you're going to care about capital because you actually have a stake in it. It's like if you can get a whole generation of young people that have some kind of buy-in, that's going to be a very good thing for the United States of America. Bro, the bad bunny odds have jumped from what was it at when we started? It was 20-something. It was 28. It's at 38. It went up 10% since we've done this show. No. The real point I wanted to convey is the absurdity of affecting prediction odds. I talked about this yesterday. If a boxing match was going to happen, I can't do anything about that. I can say I hope Jake Paul wins or whatever. It's weird that I could be like, Jack Posobiec came on my show and mentioned he was hoping Trump would comment on his show. and also people are like buying on these. I'm buying that. Yeah, that's wild. It's weird. Odds are going down. So you can see like the $500 wager, you can see the amount you win is going down because more people are believing he's going to save. All right, here we go. Joshua P. Flowers says, my friend in the area says, the cartel does that all the time, but this is the first time they issued a no-fly zone. Something is different or something is seriously wrong, the drones. That's what I was saying on my 4 p.m. show, that they wouldn't do something so dramatic unless it was very serious. If it was a false flag, they would have made it sound more serious. So it sounds to me like something very major happened, and they don't want word to get out as to what the cartels did. Or could it be, and this just flip side, it's the same type of drones that happen, but we were, and I don't have any sourcing on this, it's just me speculating, what if we were testing a weapon system or something like an anti-drone system and well apparently they were and we didn't want any planes to be you know in the vicinity just in case something went wrong so one theory and we were told this is not true is that the dod wanted to test w dow wanted to test a high-powered directed energy weapon on mexican cartel drones and the faa was like are you nuts yeah exactly we've got planes yeah we got so it was the faa that did the NOTAM, I believe. And it was apparently an FU to the DOW being like, guys, you cannot launch laser beams near our airports. I'm told this is not correct, though. Then they put out a report saying that the DOW shot a balloon with a laser. That's I'm told none of this is correct. I'm told the cartel story is what happened. And the most recent reporting still says it was cartel drones. And guys, honestly, we know the cartel has been launching these drones. The New York Times reported this for months they've been flying thousands it's like 20 000 drone flights or something an insane amount so i think it's just more serious and they don't want to let on exactly how serious it was actually just it's actually just greg bovino they they sent him down there with a laser gun and he's popping off yep all right let's see what we got going on that guy love love bovino patriot bovino scribbly bear says i tried turning tate's use of the phrase fellow patriots into a drinking game. I ended up blowing out my liver because he overuses the phrase to the point where it sounds like he's virtue signaling. I do not overuse it, but yes, I am virtue signaling. Bro, the Bad Bunny needs a 40% now. Virtue signaling is awesome. I signal my virtues every day at 12 p.m. What if I said right now I'm going to ask Jack to tell the president not to say Bad Bunny? Mr. President, please, please do not say it. I'm going to say it. Dude, I just think the whole prediction market stuff is just so crazy. Do not come. Do not come. Did you see this one, Jack? Will the U.S. confirm that aliens exist before 2027? 14% chance? 1.8 million? Okay, the answer is no. If you put $10,000 in. There's a correct answer to this question. You will get back $1,000. You're getting a 13% margin. 13% interest rate, effectively. So my attitude is like, why should I put my money in the bank when I can put it in shares of no, the U.S. will not confirm the existence of aliens and get back a higher percentage? Can't you just bet on civilization-ending instances? Because it's like if this were it, then who needs money? It's so funny because we actually just watched the original War of the Worlds the other day, showed it to my kids, loved it. I don't think I'd be like – if there was aliens coming to Earth, I don't think I'd be like, where's my $10,000? I wonder what my wife would say if I was like, honey, I just put $400,000 into a great investment. It's no, the U.S. will not confirm these things of aliens' shares. And at the end of the year, we get back $38,000. Yeah. She's going to be like – It's going to be great. She's going to be like, very smart. It's an excellent investment. Thank you. Thank you. I have to be honest. I actually don't think, based on the stocks that I have, I'm pretty sure my stocks will beat this. Will beat that? Yeah, absolutely. I'm getting ahead of time. So, like, I've got some tech stocks, and I've got, like, Tesla, and I've got some graphene stuff. And they performed very, very well. And I think I'm going to beat – this is 9%, though, 31,000. If you did 300, you'll get back an 11% return. This is the weirdest thing imaginable to me. It's like, guys, I'm not telling you what to do. It's not a financial advice. I'm just pointing out there is a 0% chance the U.S. will confirm the existence of aliens. Yep. Zero. Now – Zero. So if you buy – this is just totally me not knowing anything. If you buy no, can you sell that before? Yes, yep. So then as soon as you make a few bucks, you just sell. That's the thing about prediction markets. You can buy a share, and then if it increases – the no increases to 95%, you now sell at a profit before it even concludes. Yep. Oh, man. Yeah, it's – there's a 0% chance. anyway guys we're going to go to the uncensored portion of the show so smash the like button share the show stay tuned it's going to be at rumble.com slash timcast i r l sign up come hang out you can follow me on x and instagram at timcast jack do you want to shut anything out look i just say you know because i haven't really said this incredible success of the show uh that's thanks to people this audience people on youtube the patriots out there but ultimately this is God's grace and we were all incredibly humbled by it. This wasn't, you know, it was just stupid tweet by me. And then coming on when you were out in Phoenix and we all chatted about it, you know, a couple of months ago and it just took on a life of its own.
