And we're out, yeah, if you have to pee, that's the key to this. You can't talk when you have to pee, because if you do, you're not gonna... nothing's gonna come out, right. You're just gonna, like, be concentrating on peeing.
I was like, we're in such a good conversation, I was like, you, piece of man, if I stop, is it...
Yeah, I've learned, I've learned, you just gotta let it go.
Did Ari really pee in the fucking...
Oh, always. Yeah, he pees in everything. He pees in whiskey jugs, he pees in kombucha bottles, he's a psychopath.
It's like my buddy AJ Hawk, he'll be doing the podcast, and he's, like, just pissing in a Gatorade bottle. I'm like, how many of those you got up in the fucking attic? He's like, well, I stopped doing that, I'm like, yeah, right.
When Matt Serra was fighting in the UFC, he used to, you know, drink so much water that he would have to get up in the middle of the night to pee all the time, so he'd put, like, a bucket by the side of his bed.
And just leaned off?
Yeah, he just leaned off and pissed in something. I think maybe he had a jug, like a one-gallon empty jug.
I had a teammate who would piss himself in practice and games, and then spray a bunch of water to make it like he didn't piss himself.
What? What a psycho. That's a guy committed to winning. Yeah.
I was like, oh, hey, Max is doing it again, Max is doing it. He's like, fuck, what is he doing?
Did he? let you guys know he was doing it?
At one point, somebody's like, what the fuck is that? Did you piss yourself?
Yeah, like, how long have you been doing that? Since college.
Jesus Christ.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
He just throws water on it?
They just spray it, like, takes the water and puts it in his mouth and, like, sprays it down. Like, we know, Max, we know. What the fuck is wrong with you?
Fucking athletes. You have to be a fucking crazy person.
Yeah.
I mean, especially, I mean, your line of work, you're playing, like, other than fighting, it's the most dangerous game.
Fighting's a little more dangerous.
Yeah, fighting's more dangerous. But not necessarily, you know, like, overall impacts.
More concussions, though.
In fighting? Yeah. I would imagine. Just the sparring and training, that's the thing that people don't really take into consideration, how many times guys get hit in the head training. Depending on what gym they're from and how the gym operates, some guys, they go really hard in the gym.
That's a lot of micro concussions over and over. And then if you got one, then you get another hit.
Do you ever spend any time in hyperbaric chambers?
Yeah, I did a bunch. Yeah, I did a bunch for my rehab.
It was awesome. It helps a lot.
I think so. I mean, a lot of it's, I think, anecdotal, but I know there's research. But it wasn't like. I felt like, oh, my God, I feel fucking incredible. It's like, no, I think it's helping.
Everything's helping.
Yeah. There was some research that was done in Israel about lengthening of telomeres, where they put people on this protocol. I think it was like a 90-day protocol, where they did 60 sessions in 90 days, and it showed that their telomere length increased, which was consistent to a change in age, a biological age of 20 years.
20?.
Yeah.
I'm going to jump in that thing right now.
I don't know whether that, I mean, I've talked to Peter Attee about that. He's like, that doesn't necessarily mean you're 20 years younger. It's probably beneficial, but there's like, you know, but Peter's like very hard-nosed, like, buy the book science. He doesn't leave any room for fuckery. He was late on the bandwagon for peptides.
He's like, I don't know, but now he's in. Yeah, good. He's very willing to accept information, but he just wants to make sure that it's absolutely accurate before he talks.
I respect that.
Oh, yeah. He's rock solid. Yeah. So you are how many months out since your injury?
Almost five.
Yeah, my wife was just here, and we were talking about how we want to see your game. We set it up. We're going to go see Aaron play. He's going to be playing the Cowboys in Dallas. Let's go.
We got all pumped up.
And four plays later.
Yeah. Yeah. How is it now?
It feels good. It feels good. I can do everything except sprint at a top speed. So the cool thing is I really attacked the rehab the first few months and kind of wanted to go as hard as I could for two months to see where I was at and also see where the team was at, because my goal was to come back. Nobody has come back really quick from that injury.
Most of the time when it happens, especially during the season, there's no need to push a rehab, because it happened the first week of the season. I said, you know, let's push this as hard as I can and see if I can come back in December at some point. So I, kind of in my mind, had circled Christmas Eve, which would have been 14 weeks post-surgery. And, yeah, I worked really, really hard. I had a great surgeon who did, you know, a newer process where they kind of attach, anchor the sutures through the tendon back into your heel.
So it allows you to get on your feet quicker. I did a lot of, you know, other things to speed up the rehab. I did hyperbaric chamber, worked with Brigham at Ways to Will. I know you're very good friends with and saw him on the podcast here, and he's amazing. I did some stem cells, did, you know, full-time rehab, up to eight hours a day with, you know, an incredible spot in L.A.
and also at home doing extra stuff. My diet was rock solid, a lot of bone broth to increase the collagen levels, to increase healing. And so I felt, you know, I felt really, really good. I made it back on the practice field at 11 weeks. The way the NFL works with the IR, you can have a three-week window before they've got to make a decision.
So they designate you to return. You have three weeks before you get activated. So I was hoping we'd win those three games. I could come back. Now.
I couldn't sprint and still can't at top speed, but I felt like there's been times in my career where I played in a small circle and could have been able to be effective. That didn't happen, and so they activated me to the roster. I just got to practice, but I didn't get to play. But I feel good, you know. I had a lot of things working against me, my age being the biggest one, but I learned a lot more about health, which I'm sure people will love to hear about.
Yeah. I mean, if you follow like a ways to well protocol, you can pretty radically speed up recovery for injuries, you know. And what's interesting is that there's stuff that you can do that you didn't do because it's not allowed, which is, you know, very admirable on your part, but I would have fucking done it. I would have done everything. I'm like, let's go.
I would have gone the full Conor McGregor route. But when you do, how do they determine whether or not you are fully healed? Do they do an MRI and check the tissue?
Yeah, we were doing ultrasounds actually for a while, just to see what type of blood flow we were getting to the area. We didn't actually do another MRI. If I had been activated with the intent to play, I think, just for safety for everybody, we probably would have done another MRI just to see the integrity, structural integrity of the tendon. But really it was about how I felt, you know, and I was able to do all the quarterback stuff, move in the pocket,
throw, step into my foot. I could actually, you know, jog to slightly faster than I jog to move and throw, all things I kind of showed in practice the last few weeks of the season.
What happens over that if you speed it up a little? Do you just feel pain? Do you feel like—?
I don't have the explosion. I don't have the ability to kind of get up on my toe. The biggest hurdle was just single leg calf strength, like being able to, from a standing position, shift my weight onto the single leg and do a heel raise.
That's how you know. you're ready to run because you run on your— athletes play on their toes, you know, so I need to be able to do that. Now. I could get around that by subtle movements in the pocket, but there was multiple times throughout my career where I had lower leg injuries in 14 and 18, especially where I was able to play in a small circle. In 14 I ripped my calf up pretty bad and was able to kind of play in the shotgun and the pistol for a stretch of time and be effective.
In 18 I banged my knee up on the second drive of the game, tore my MCL, had a fracture on the lateral side, and was able to play for a while, mostly in the shotgun, until that healed up. So I knew I could do it. I wanted to show I could play under center, which I did in practice, but we just were out of it, so I didn't come back.
Well, it seems like it's the smartest move at your age to make sure it's 100%. I've seen a lot of athletes come back, particularly from ACL injuries, with fighters, they come back too soon and it pops again.
Yeah, I totally agree with that on many levels, but then there's the competitor part where I see that window closing and there's not many guys who've played as long as I have. There's a few, obviously. Tom did it for a long time. But there's kind of an age where father time is winning, and I know that I'm on the last couple holes of my career, so I didn't want to miss an entire season.
Are you 36 now?
I'm 40.. 40.. Thank you, though. You look 36..
Is Tom the oldest that people have played?
I think Tom was 45 his last year. There were some kickers that played about as long. Yeah, 45..
45 is crazy. That's crazy. Because if you hear about a fighter that's 45, you're like. . .
If you hear about a fighter in their late 30s, it's kind of like. . .
Except in the juicy days. The juicy days of the UFC, there were some guys that competed really well.
Well, there's still some guys that are late 30s. Yoel Romero is the best example of that. That's what I was going to say.
But he's the freak of all freaks. They need to study that guy in a lab.
I think you've said that before. Yeah.
I've told the story so many times, people get annoyed if I bring it up.
I don't care. Bring it up.
The UFC brought him to a doctor, and the doctor's like, where did you get this guy? And they're like, he's awesome, right? And they're like, no, no, no, you don't understand. I've never seen a human being that's built like him. They said that the tendon in his eyes were three times larger than a normal person's.
His eye fracture, he had an orbital fracture, was already healing by the time they were bringing him in to the doctor. They're like, this guy is just a freak. By the way, his neck is completely fused. So if you see when he runs, his neck is completely stiff. His neck is totally fused.
And that's some shit they did in Cuba, like when he broke his neck.
This is nice, Jamie. This is new, this whole setup.
No, no, it's always been like this. But, I mean, he didn't even get into the UFC. I think he was like 36 or 37 when he fought his first fights in the UFC. And he's still fighting at a world-class level.
Did he rip his knee up and keep fighting?
I don't know.
I thought he had like a ligament damage and kept fighting. Maybe that's somebody else.
I don't know. He's probably one of those guys that if he did, he wouldn't tell you. You know, that Cuban athletic program that he talked about, it was a fun podcast because I did it with him and Joey Diaz. So he would talk in Spanish and Joey Diaz would translate it. But occasionally he would talk in English.
But he was like, they turned you into a machine. He was talking about the Cuban program. Like, if you're competing for Cuba, if you're on the elite team, you eat three times a day. If you're not on the elite team, you eat twice a day.
Wow.
Yeah, yeah. You sleep in better places. You have better food. And so he's like, so, the competition is just intense.
Broken leg in KO win over Luke Rockhold. He broke his leg? Jesus Christ. He broke his leg when he won? Huh.
Broke his shin, is that what it said? Yeah, he broke his shin after he checked the kick.
Suffering what he believes is a broken leg. Huh. Interesting.
There's some good fights coming up, though.
Oh yeah. Yeah, there's some great fights coming up. The Volkanovsky-Iliya Toporiya fight. That's in next week. That's a big one.
That's a big one. That guy, Iliya Toporiya, is fucking terrifying. That guy's an animal.
Yeah, but so is Volk.
Oh yeah. No, he is. But it's like, for Volkanovsky, I really would have wished he hadn't taken that second fight with Islam on such short notice. To fight a guy like that with no training on 10 days notice just seems crazy. And then to get head kicked like that, it's just like, ooh.
But then there's Robert Whitaker and Paulo Costa. Jeff Neal and Ian Machado-Gary, that's a big fight too. Those are good fights.
That's in Anaheim. Mm-hmm.
Marab and Henry Cejudo.
Are you doing that fight?
Yes, sir. It's one of the rare times I go back to that communist shithole commonly known as California. That fucking place is so crazy. You know, you can't get these. I had a friend of mine, my friend Moshe, was here the other day, and he's like, oh, you have flavored nicotine.
You can't get flavored out there. You can't get flavored nicotine. Yep. Imagine. You can't get flavored nicotine.
I think it's because of the vaping, right? They want to cut down the vaping. What the fuck?
What does that mean? I don't know. What does that mean? I'm a grown man. You're telling me that I can go buy whiskey, but I can't get flavored nicotine?
Like, what are you doing? Like, they just can't wait to put more controls on people in any way, shape, or form. They're trying to outlaw internal combustion engines by 2035.. No new sales. Guess what, you fucks?
Every time the powers, like in the summertime, they tell people not to charge their cars because the grid's going to go down. Like, what are you going to do? Are you going to do a radical upheaval of the grid in 11 years? No, you're not.
I'm sure, Newsom can get it done.
Yeah. They're just talking. It's like literally every goal is to just say the right things, check the right boxes. so people think you're green. You're green and you're all DEI'd out.
And then they don't care about the infrastructure of the country. It's fucking crazy.
No, they don't care at all. They definitely don't care at all. It's control. Yeah. They just want control.
They want total control.
But when you live in a place like this, you realize how much, A, it's control, and B, it doesn't change anything. You're not safer when they do it like that. Like, you're better off here.
Well, Texas has its own grid.
Yes, that's true too. And Texas provides oil to much of the country. This is like, Texas could be its own country. And there's a lot of real psychos who want it to be.
You're one of them? No.
No, I still believe in the United States. I'm a patriot. I still believe in America. I just don't believe in politicians. And I think they have to figure out a way to extract money from politics.
They have to do two things. Two things would fix a lot. They have to stop congresspeople from being able to fucking insider trade. That shit is insane. When you see the fact that these people are making $170,000..
She's great at it, man.
She's amazing at it. She's a wizard at it. But it's not just her. If you look at the chart, that's the thing about it is they all kind of keep their mouths shut. Because if you look at the real numbers, it's pretty much divided.
It's both sides. It's Republicans and Democrats. Yeah, it's both. Both sides are doing it. But that's crazy.
They put Martha Stewart in jail for way less. They put Martha Stewart, America's mom, they put her in jail for insider trading. And yet these congresspeople are completely exempt from it.
But it wasn't them, right? It was their significant other. I'm sure they weren't sharing any information.
Some of it's them.
Some of it is them.
Oh, yeah, it's them. Yeah, they know what bills are going to be passed. They buy a shitload of stock, and they pass these bills. And then this whatever industry is goes up, and they make enormous profits. There's people that are making $150,000, $170,000, $200,000 a year, and they're worth $90 million.
In any other business, you'd be investigated. And if you were a fucking plumber, and you were making $190,000 a year, and you were worth hundreds of millions of dollars, people would go, what the fuck are you doing, Ted? They would crawl up your ass with a microscope. Where the fuck did you get this money? How do you know all these things?
Like, where are you getting this data? How are you able to do this? Oh, you pass the laws? You pass the laws that changes the value of these companies, and then you gamble on that? That's what you're doing?
You're going to jail. You're going to jail. Like, that should be illegal, because you're going to do things to profit that are above and that are ahead. You're going to put that ahead of the better good of the United States. You're going to.
They all do.
Yeah, of course. So that's one. What's the other one?
They've got to take money out of politics. They've got to take the amount of donations that super PACs and these special interest groups are allowed to give to these politicians, and then are completely beholden to them once they get into office. They have to figure out a way to stop that. I mean, it should have never been allowed in the first place. Another thing would be, get back on the gold standard.
That would be a great move, too, but that's too late.
But JFK was trying to do that. Yeah. Silver standard.
Yeah. Guess what they did to him?
Hmm.
Yeah. Yeah. You see Bobby Kennedy out there. They won't even give him Secret Service protection, which is just fucking egregious. It's so wild.
They won't give him. He's the only presidential candidate ever that's been denied Secret Service protection.
Three times, I think, already. Yeah.
It's just. they're so fucking corrupt. Yeah. And they're so in your face with it, and no one does anything about it.
You had Bobby on the podcast. Yes, I did. Yeah. What did you think of him?
I love him. Yeah. Look, forget about the vaccine stuff, which I think he's got very good points about all that stuff. There's real data, and if you read his book, if you read the real Anthony Fauci, you will be sick to your stomach if you know the absolute truth. Sick.
If it wasn't truth, it wasn't truth. He'd be getting sued. He'd be sued. Yeah. He's not getting sued for a fucking reason, but just that alone.
But then, if you forget about the vaccine stuff, you just look at his environmental record, what he did when he was an environmental attorney, when he was suing these companies. EPA. Yeah. I mean, they cleaned up the Hudson River because of him. Yeah.
He's an amazing guy. I really love him. And the things that he's been saying about what happened during the pandemic. He had some talk that he did recently, some speech, some conversation he did recently that was public, where he was talking about, we're being poisoned by food. And this is why everybody got so sick from COVID.
The disparity between people who got COVID and it was just a cold versus people who got COVID and they were deadly ill is 100% what they're eating and what that does to their body. And how it compromises their immune system and how it causes comorbidities like diabetes, type 2 diabetes and obesity and heart disease. This is all a direct relationship to food.
But there's no money in healing people. The chronic disease, it's a huge moneymaker. Yeah. And it's not going to change. I was watching something the other day with Tucker Carlson was interviewing somebody named Kali Means.
I don't know if you saw this, but he's talking about-.
Ozempic. Yeah. Yes, I did see that. Yeah, we were talking about it yesterday.
But one of the big points that he made that people, I think, forget is that why are these drug companies, big pharma, spending so much money on advertisements during the news is not to sell their products. They don't have a problem with that. It's to control the messaging.
Yes.
I mean, they're fucking controlling the message. For sure. So if somebody went out there and said, hey, you're not going to be allowed to advertise on TV anymore, because I think we're one of the only countries, maybe there's one other country.
New Zealand's the only other country.
Okay, so there's two countries. They would be attacked for anti-science or whatever it might be. What RFK wants to do, kind of the dismantling or the reforming, realigning of the CDC and NIH and some of these alphabet companies who've been lying and misleading the public for so long, he would get absolutely slaughtered by the media. Why? Not because they actually believe that, but because who's paying them?
Yes. It's those companies. So they control the message. So when you come out and talk about what you use to heal yourself during COVID, or when I come out and talk about, or Dr. Peter McCullough, or Robert Malone, or insert anybody who was just trying to bring— Peter Corey, they get absolutely railroaded and censored, and silenced and attacked and slandered.
I mean, it's not the news. It's corporate controlled. It's completely controlled. And it's not good for us. And the fact that people went along with it because they thought ideologically that that group of people aligned with their side and the other side was Donald Trump and the MAGA and the vaccine deniers and all the craziness that they attributed to that.
I mean, it's really kind of brilliant the way they've pushed this propaganda. But at the end of the day, it's not beneficial to the greater good of society. If the media was legitimate, they would be talking about one of the biggest crises that's happening in this country right now, which is a massive increase in all-cause mortality. It's a massive increase, and they're completely silent on it. It's like in some age groups, it's a 40-plus percent increase in all-cause mortality, heart attacks, strokes, cancer.
Gee, what do you think happened that changed? where all of a sudden there's this massive increase and it coincides with something else? Don't you think maybe they would investigate that? Don't you think that you would have some sort of investigative reporter that dives deep into this and gets to the bottom of it? No, they can't, because of what you said.
Because they're captured. They're totally captured, 100%. And yeah, it's just on and on and on through this whole thing. My thing is, this, is all of us who've been attacked for our position, to all those people, what do you think the fucking motivation is? Yeah.
I mean, just look at my own situation. I lost friends, allies in the media, millions of dollars in sponsorship because I talked about what worked for me and my own beliefs and my own health reasons why I didn't get vaccinated.
Oh, by the way, you were right. Yeah. You were right. Look, you didn't need it. Look how quickly you recovered.
You were fine.
And same with you. Yeah. And what did they do? They changed the color of your face.
They vilified all early treatments, including the medicine that has one of the safest profiles out there. Yeah. We've talked about it. The guy who invented it got a Nobel Prize. Yeah.
They were using it all over the world, in Uttar, Pradesh, Africa, and various places. And that's what you do during a pandemic, right? You find ways to repurpose drugs for early treatments. But no, they couldn't do that, because if there's an early treatment, then they can't get the UA.
Drugs have been proven to have antiviral properties. Yeah.
But what's the motivation for Peter McCullough, who got vilified? What's the motivation for Robert Malone?
Well, if you know Peter McCullough, Peter McCullough is like – that guy has standards and morals and ethics. I mean, he is a rock solid guy.
And he actually treated patients too.
Actually treated patients. He's also the most published doctor in history in his particular field of study.
What is the conspiracy on that? about motivation? What do I get out of this? What do you get out of sharing what you share?
Well, I didn't think anything was going to happen. When it happened with me, I knew that people were upset at me because I was hesitant to take the vaccine. But that was because two people I knew got strokes. I wasn't initially hesitant at all. I was set up to take it.
I was set up to take it by the UFC.
Yeah.
I was ready to do it. I was like, okay, shoot me up. I was going to have them do it. to me. I thought of it like a flu shot.
Like if I was about to do the UFC. and they said, oh, you have to take a flu shot before you go to the UFC. I'm like, all right, stick me. I didn't think it was going to be a big deal. And then they said, well, in two weeks, when you're back, just come early and you come to the clinic.
I said, okay, we'll do that. And then, within that two weeks, it got pulled. Yeah. Luckily, you know, but it's not just those two guys. I know a lot of people now with pretty severe vaccine injuries.
So do I. And so many people have reached out to me because of what happened to me. Celebrities that wanted to be quiet about it. You know, people that are like really hesitant about talking about it openly and publicly. But they were really scared.
Like people that have, like, real, serious problem. I have two friends that have pacemakers now.
Yeah, I remember you talked about that. Like one of them is in their 30s, right? Yeah.
He's a dentist.
That's not fucking normal.
No, it's not normal.
It's not normal at all.
For your heart to stop for nine seconds at a time. He's a thin, healthy, young guy. And all of a sudden his heart starts fucking up.
Why does nobody care about that?
Well, everyone's scared. There's people that are scared because they took it and they're worried that they have a ticking time bomb. And they want any information, any information that refutes that and that confirms that they made the right choice. Also, they did make the right choice, morally and ethically, when they did it. They did it because they thought they were doing the right thing.
Everybody has to do it. We're going to protect everyone. If we all do this, this is going to get us out of the pandemic. Because the news media was being used by these pharmaceutical drug companies to push a very specific narrative. And they didn't do any critical thinking.
They didn't step outside the box. They didn't talk to any scientists that differed. They all just stuck with whatever Fauci said, whatever the NIH said. And they also demonized people who were saying things that have been proven to be absolutely correct. Like the fucking lab leak theory.
If you brought up the lab leak theory, it used to get banned from YouTube. Now it's widely accepted by everyone.
So is all the conspiracies that got people censored and kicked off. So many of them have been proven to be true.
Yeah.
And I agree with you. So many people thought they were doing the right thing. They thought, I'm doing my part. This is what we're supposed to do. Two weeks, stop the spread.
I'm full on board.
We're all together.
But let's look at what happened. And people are always like, why do you keep fucking bringing up the vaccine? For multiple reasons. But listen, this is a playbook that now we have. For the next time, they fucking try and do this shit.
Don't forget about this. Don't forget about this.
You're talking about disease.
Disease X.
When was the last time they were talking about a disease that doesn't exist, that's not affecting anybody, that literally there's no one sick, there's no one dying. And they're talking about how it's coming.
Well, just watch what Bill Gates does. Because the last time he invested $50 million in a company, he made a pretty good score. And then he pulled all his money out.
And then he started disparaging the effectiveness of the vaccine.
After he pulled his money out, though.
After he pulled his money out. And he also started saying that the virus wasn't as bad as we thought it was. Oh, gee. How convenient.
Yeah. What happened to the flu?
Yeah. Flu went away.
Zero cases.
It's crazy. I mean.
It is pretty crazy.
But we cannot forget about what happened.
No.
Because this is what they're going to do next time.
Well, the big loser in this, besides the people that lost their jobs and their businesses closed, and people lost their lives, the big loser has been mainstream media. Because the trust in mainstream media is at an all-time low. I mean, they are laying off journalists left and right. No one wants to read the newspaper anymore. No one believes them.
CNN lost all their big hosts. It's like they lost.
And they lost their streaming service.
Yeah. Well, that was hilarious. They dumped money into something to get people to pay for something that no one wants for free.
Yeah.
And it was like Anderson Cooper's Book Club. Like, what the fuck are you doing? Because if I was a shareholder at CNN.
How much? Only $10 a month? Okay.
Yeah. I was like, what the fuck are you guys doing? Do you really think anybody's going to pay for CNN? No. What are you offering?
Nobody watches now that Trump's now. No. The numbers they get are so small. That's why, you know, it's platforms like this that are actually bringing the information that people want to watch. Instead of watching the fucking news, like people used to trust in you, and there's 6 o'clock nightly news, and I'm going to get this story.
You know, there's no more Walter Cronkite's out there. It's long-form conversations that are actually informing people on what's going on.
It's that, and it's people steering you to legitimate journalists that are independent. The Michael Schellenbergers, the Glenn Greenwalds, the people that are experts in their field, the Bret Weinsteins, the people that actually know what they're talking about. But it's just a weird landscape that we're in now that didn't exist before, where we don't – we're absolutely sure that you can't trust the mainstream media anymore. We're absolutely sure of that. And even boomers know that now.
Even the people that have been trusting the mainstream media their whole life, they're like, well, there are definitely – something's wrong. Brought to you by Pfizer. Yeah. Those are amazing. Those compilations.
Anderson Cooper, brought to you by Pfizer.
I was watching the playoff game the other day, and it said, you know, NFL football, brought to you by Pfizer. I was like, yeah, I knew that.
Yikes. Yeah. Well, they made a lot of money, and they'd like to do that again. You know, and that's what you have to be really careful about. But what they're doing that again now with is Ozempic, and they're making a shitload of money off of this drug that essentially paralyzes your fucking stomach.
It slows your body's ability to digest. It causes a host of gastrointestinal issues for some people, all sorts of weird side effects. People have died taking it, and they're pushing it, and they're pushing it even on kids. It's like a primary weight loss strategy for obesity. Instead of dietary change, instead of realizing, like, you've got to get better, the same way you got sick.
How did you get sick? You took a bunch of bad food. Here's how you get better. Eat only good food. You know, see how you got fat?
Exercise. You had too many calories? This is how you – you've got to lose weight. So you have to have less calories in than you're burning, and you've got to exercise. How about start drinking water?
Stop drinking soda. We had this chart up yesterday of how many people on food stamps buy soda, like, how much of food stamps is spent on soda. It's fucking crazy. It's like poor people just drinking poison, drinking sugary poison.
But, see, that's part of the problem too. You look at not just what they pushed or what they closed down during the lockdowns. You had what was open. You had fast food restaurants open. Like you had fucking processed food places open.
But the food that's actually the best for you oftentimes is the most expensive.
Yeah.
So you have to find a way to – whether it's doing all-out tariffs on certain – extra taxes on certain types of products. Or, you know, I don't know how you're going to change the farming system, especially with Bill Gates being one of the biggest farm landowners there. And he's pushing, you know, insects and his – what's it called? Appeal thing that he's putting on all the fruit and stuff. But the problem is that, in order to eat healthier, you have to spend more money, because the shitty food is the least expensive.
What scares the shit out of me is what they're doing to farmers in Europe, like the Dutch farmers. And in Ireland, they're telling farmers that they have to kill cows because they have too many cows, and they're contributing to the global warming.
See, the guy had – I think he was in Congress who was interviewing somebody and asking these, you know, climate change people about how much CO2 is, you know, and then they're way off.
Yeah, they're way off. And they're making the decisions. Yeah. And they literally are just – it's completely ideological. The ideological battle, the demon that you're fighting, is climate change.
And we must do something to stop climate change. Meanwhile, India and China aren't doing a fucking thing. No. And they're contributing to most of it, literally most of the carbon that's being released. Like if you look at the amount of fucking coal plants that China has, they're opening up new ones.
They have hundreds of them in construction.
Wasn't that the whole point of the –? what was it? In Paris? they had some sort of climate accord? Yeah.
And – but it wasn't taking effect, or there was different rules for other countries that we had to adhere to something that nobody else was adhering to?
It's control.
But that's the way we've been doing it. the last – if you look at – I saw something on X about like what they were telling us in the 60s and the 70s and the 80s. The world was always going to end based on something, you know, and now it's this climate change. We've got to change the way we live in order for us to keep going. It's like they've been doing this for the last five decades.
They would like to control the food system. And there's a tremendous amount of money in controlling the food system. And if they could get you to only buy their food and they can convince you that their food is somehow or another – emits less carbon, and come up with some fucking Hollywood math that shows you that this is the only way to do it, and this is the way out of this.
Well, I just learned something online that if you grow your own food, actually your carbon footprint is much greater than –.
I posted that on my Instagram. And it got fact checked. No shit. It got fact checked. Yeah.
I don't see the fact check. But if someone goes to my page and sees that, it says something about like partially true or – Listen, it's a fucking article. that was in whatever newspaper it was that I saw and I was like. this is hilarious.
How fucking crazy is that?
How is it even possible that it emits more carbon? You're literally growing plants in the ground which take carbon dioxide and convert them to oxygen. That's all you're doing. You don't have any heavy machinery. You're growing your own food.
So you just got a little garden. So you, growing your own food, releases more carbon.
Do not do it.
I don't even know how they did the math. Like, how the fuck did they even say that? What does it say? if you go to my page and it says it's fact checked? I don't see it.
fact checked. Oh, it's definitely fact checked. I just checked. My wife showed it to me. I'm just saying I didn't see it.
I just checked on my phone too. I don't see it. Well, maybe they took it down because people freaked out.
Yeah, there it is. Five times greater.
How is it possible? You're literally growing something that takes oxygen and puts it out into the air. It converts carbon dioxide to oxygen through photosynthesis. That's literally what it does. That's literally what plants do.
They make oxygen.
Think about that. What if you didn't have – everybody's got lawns, right? Yeah. What if you had your own fucking garden?
Yeah.
Like, how different would things be?
Well, you'd be a lot fucking healthier.
Yeah.
You'd be a lot healthier if you were eating stuff that doesn't have fucking – all kinds of herbicides and pesticides sprayed all over it. You know that when they've done these tests, when they check people's blood, some insane number – what is it, like? 90-something percent of people they tested had glyphosate at detectable levels?
Yeah.
And glyphosate's nuts. Like it's – they fucking spray that shit on everything. It's crazy. That's really bad for you.
I mean, you know who owns Monsanto, right? It's Bayer, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Bayer, the same people that during the Holocaust were – I mean, Brigham, talked about that on my podcast where they took these people that were in the concentration camps. They took 150 women. They tried their drugs on them, killed them.
And they said – We need more.
We need more. And they sent them more. So they sent them more. So that company, Bayer, did that.
Yeah, Bob Monsanto, which was taking a bunch of heat because their roundup is killing people.
Yeah. Yeah, it's –.
How do you change that? I mean, that's –.
Well, you need a guy like Bobby Kennedy in office. Yeah. But boy, they would put him in a convertible and take him to a ride through Dallas quick.
I don't know. I would think, at some point, though, it's – wouldn't that start? –.
Well, I think at some point in time, people are going to get –.
People are waking – they're waking up.
Yeah.
To certain things. There's still – the loudest group is not the majority. I really don't believe it. I think there's a silent majority. that's like, fuck the media.
Legacy. media lies nonstop.
Yeah.
Big Pharma doesn't have our best interest in mind. Politicians are all corrupted, the majority of them. Like, people, are waking up, I think, slowly. It's just – Yeah. They're not the loudest.
Like, I was telling a friend, I said, who do you know in your life that spends their days online? trolling accounts, commenting on posts, commenting on X?
Nobody.
I don't know anybody like that who, like, spends their life negative commenting. But those are the ones that get amplified and talked about. I'm like, that's not – that's not a – the swath of the population. that's, like, the majority. That's a –.
It's very unhealthy, small minority people. Plus, a lot of them are paid. Yeah. There's a lot of them that are – whether it's from our government or other governments, much more foreign countries that are – we know that it's been documented that they have these internet troll farms, that they're specifically designed to get people upset and rile them up and get them fighting with each other and diminish our appreciation and our respect for democracy.
What was the quote you've talked about? that was – what was it, 1950s, the Russian guy?
Oh, Yuri Bezmenov? Yeah. Yeah, 1984..
Oh, yeah, 1984..
Or he – I think it was 82.. But whatever it was –.
84 sounds better, because it's, you know –.
Yeah, it's perfect. Orwellian. Yeah. Yeah, well, Yuri Bezmenov, he explained the subversion. He explained how it works.
That was a multi-decade plan, right? Yeah. To slowly turn the country –.
And back then, it looked like nonsense. Like, what are you talking about? But now, it – absolutely everything he said in the 1980s has come to be true. Yeah. And the Soviet Union has done it.
They did it to – they did it to us. They fucking injected the universities with Marxism.
What do you think is going to happen with this – if Tucker really did interview Putin?
I think he did. Yeah. He's over there. He said something like, why –.
It's not out, though, right?
But what's crazy is the way CNN is already trying to spin it, like, you know, that Tucker – you know, Putin's biggest fan. Tucker Carlson, a fan of Russia. You know, they're trying to –.
Using McCarthyism tactics.
Yeah. Oh, he's over there. He interviewed Putin.
Okay, yeah.
Do you know that he said that the NSA or the CIA, whoever it was, got into his Signal account.
That was scary because –.
Yeah. That's supposed to be encrypted. Yeah. But nothing's encrypted anymore. I don't think there's a goddamn thing that you could do on your phone unless you have some wacky, fucking, crazy operating system that, you know, maybe only fucking Jeff Bezos knows.
You know, I don't –.
I think you can VPN, right?
I don't think you can. I don't – I think with Pegasus, the way it was explained to me by Gavin DeBecker, who's a securities expert, he's awesome. Gavin said that the first Pegasus, which they got – that's how they got all Bezos' dick pics and all that shit, all the letters to his girlfriend that apparently her brother was doing something to try to blackmail Bezos because he got a hold of it somehow or another. Those – that was through Pegasus. Jesus.
Pegasus 1, he got a WhatsApp link, supposedly from MBS, from Saudi Arabia, and he got this WhatsApp link. He clicks on the link, and that puts Pegasus on his phone, and now they have full access to your phone. He said, with Pegasus 2, all he needs is your number. They have your phone number. They can see everything.
What? Yeah.
Yeah, so, I mean, I don't know how it works. So, I don't know how they would be able to access your Signal account. I don't understand that. I've had the guy who created Signal here, and, you know, he seemed to think it was pretty rock solid, but that was back then. You know, it's like they're always one step ahead of this, and before we know about it, there has to be some whistleblower that comes out and says, hey, the NSA can do this now.
Ed Snowden tried to do that. Yeah.
Yeah.
My biggest problem with kind of a counter-argument to that or a common sentiment is, well, I don't care. I have nothing to hide. It's like you're missing the fucking point. The point is that there should be some freedom of privacy. To not have to have fucking people looking at your shit.
Yeah. And I don't care. You have nothing to fucking hide. This country was founded as a constitutional republic to protect personal freedoms, and I shouldn't have to worry about somebody fucking in my shit all the time.
Well, that's one of the things that they did. that was very insidious after 9-11, because after 9-11, they passed the Patriot Act and the NDA. They had that thing dialed up, right? Yeah. Oh, they had it ready.
Because they had tried to push that before and nobody wanted it. And then, when 9-11 came around, they just rolled all those bills, everything that they wanted to do, they just chucked it into the Patriot Act. And then the Patriot Act 2, which is even more draconian. And now all that stuff's in place. Indefinite detention for people that aren't tried for anything.
They can just keep you in jail forever. I mean, look what they're doing with Julian Assange. I mean, Julian Assange, he's not really tried with a crime. The crime was surprise sex. That's what they were trying to get him.
They said that he was having sex with a woman and then, without her knowing it, he didn't have the condom on.
And then she didn't want to press charges. I don't know what the extent of that case is now or what they're going after him for now, but that was what they were initially trying to get him on.
Yeah, but I mean, what's his ultimate crime?
His ultimate crime is letting people know that- What the hell's going on? Yeah. There's a lot of... Well, there was also the collateral murder video. People had a really hard time with that where they gunned down those reporters and then you could hear the soldier saying, yeah, shouldn't have had kids there.
when they're shooting up that van. The whole thing is very, very difficult to watch. And it's one of the cold, hard realities of the evil that is war. And you're seeing that right now. What's going on in Gaza?
You're seeing the same fucking thing. It's just, that's what war is. And there's people that will justify that all day long and saying they shouldn't have done this. and that's how it goes. But man, if you live in Gaza, what the fuck do you do?
You didn't do anything. You just got the wrong roll of the dice and you're stuck in this place that's controlled by Hamas, with abject poverty and no sanitation. And now it's getting bombed into oblivion. I mean, the videos, when you see what Gaza looked like and what it looks like now, it's fucking insane. And they're not stopping.
They're not stopping. They're just going to keep bombing it into oblivion.
Some of that has to change. I mean, like there has to be something that turns, I don't know what it is. Ambulance. Yeah, it might be.
Might be the only thing.
It might be. I mean, that's, it's interesting to see how much has changed, you know, in that over the last, I don't know, 15 years, just how people can talk about it now without being called crazy. There's some disclosure.
I actually went back to the day I was watching an old, uh, uh, I think it was from 2018 or 19, when you had Bob Lazar and Jeremy on. And I mean, he's been talking about this forever. Yeah. Um, but like, what, what's going to happen with that? There's got to be something, you know, there's been conspiracies about Project Blue and there's obviously a lot of these dumbs around the country where there's interesting technologies and stuff, but I got to think that something, I think this is going to be a crazy year.
I think something, especially if it gets down to it and it looks like the Trump wave is going to, you know, cause they can't roll out Weekend at Bernie's and expect him to, to, uh, be able to debate or actually carry a conversation.
That's the plan. That's the plan. I think the plan is you wait until it becomes extremely obvious that Biden can't do it, and then they pull them out. And I think they probably put in Gavin Newsom. That's what I think.
He's hated, though, in California. Yeah. But there's enough zombies out there that'll just blue, no matter who, and he's our guy. They don't care. They like, no one could have, California's population is too high.
And it's like, what are you going to do? And they'll come up with some sort of a reason and he'll move a little bit towards the middle. He'll do some common sense things and get people go, all right, I like that. And that'll be enough. Wow.
Anyone, but Trump people, you know, but look at the fucking view. Whoopi Goldberg, saying that he's going to, you might be poor and you might be saying, well, maybe Donald Trump would be better for the economy. He's going to put you in camps. Did you see her saying that?
No, but I'm not surprised.
Put you in camps.
Nobody watches that show.
Crazy old ladies. Crazy old ladies are at home right now.
But instead of like, if you look at this two-party system and go, who's the lesser of the two evils? I would say, how about? let's fuck the two-party system and let's have some more options. And one of them, in my opinion, is RFK, who's phenomenal.
Well, they kept him off the ballot. They did a phenomenal job of making sure that he wasn't in the primaries, the same way they were going to do with Bernie Sanders.
That's why he went independent. Yeah. But get him in a debate.
Yeah.
Why do we have to wait until fucking September for a debate?
Well, how about the fact that he won't debate, nor will Biden? No one's debating. This is the first time we've ever had a presidential election where neither the incumbent nor the main guy on the opposition is debating.
So Trump said he's not going to debate? He's not debating anybody. Why? He'd mop the floor.
He doesn't have to.
Yeah, I guess that's true.
So he's like, fuck you. I'm not debating. And also, because they keep trying him. They keep bringing him into court. There's all these cases that they keep bringing up.
They just lawsuit into oblivion. The whole thing is wild.
It just emboldens his followers.
Yeah, it does. It has the exact opposite effect. I mean, it's a similar sort of playbook in a lot of ways to what they did during the pandemic, where the more they attack him, the more people are like, what the fuck is true?
Yeah.
Because I don't believe you guys anymore. And when you're going after him, I kind of think that you're just doing this because you don't want him to win. And that's banana republic shit. When you're prosecuting your political opponents specifically because you don't want your political opponents to be able to make it to the vote, that's banana republic shit.
But that's what we're living in.
Yeah.
We have a captured media system. We have a captured medicine system.
Yeah. We have a captured education system. Yeah.
And we're Team America World Police with bases all over the world. It's every country on the southern and eastern border of Russia.
What I'm hoping is one of the things that's happened over the last few years, specifically, is the deterioration of the trust of media because of the access to information that people have now, where it's just undeniable. At a certain point in time, they have to admit certain things, like lab leak theory. They have to admit certain things. They're avoiding, like the plague, this all-cause mortality increase. But enough people are aware of it.
Enough people know people that have been vaccine injured. Enough people know people that have died. Enough people know young people that have had heart attacks.
There's enough suspicion and there's enough pause where people are reconsidering. and then there's been this silent shift to the center of people that were like radically left. Friends of mine that I had in California, that were fucking so left, far left, and now they're like ready to vote Republican. They're literally ready to vote Republican because they don't want this anymore, because they see where this is going. My hope is that with AI and with even more access to information because the information just streams and it moves on and innovation moves on, no matter what we do, that it's going to get to a point where lying is virtually impossible.
And I think that's where this kind of emergent technology leads us to, unless some other superpower gets a hold of it before we do.
But don't you think one of the – I agree with you 100%. I would just say with AI, haven't we seen enough examples already of some hardwired coding of information that is like a little bit woke?
Yeah, we have. We have, but then there's Grok, which is Elon's AI, which is the opposite of that.
I haven't seen that.
Yeah, I haven't used it either, but the idea is that it's supposedly the antidote to that. I think there's enough people that don't want that. And it just – as time goes on, look, even the fucking New York Times wrote a major story about detransitioners. So people that were convinced at an early age that they were trans, and now they're detransitioning and their lives are ruined. Their bodies are ruined.
They can't have children anymore. They lost their breasts. They lost their penis. It's in fucking sanity. They just had an eight-year-old kid that was taken away from his father because the father doesn't want the boy to be on hormone blockers and the mother does.
It was happening in Canada for a while. I've seen some cases in the States, which is –.
This is what Jordan Peterson was warning people about in 2016 when I first met him. Yeah. And everybody was like, why do you care about what's happening in colleges? This is just fringe things that are happening in colleges. Those people are going to graduate and they're going to enter into the workforce, and it's a new mentality that exists.
It's not an objective reality mentality. It's an ideologically based mentality that's going to change the world at large unless we stop it in its tracks. They're not looking at reality. The fucking detransitioner thing, the fact that it's in the New York Times is big. But do you know why?
There's a whole story that somebody wrote about it. It's because of trial lawyers. Everyone's going to get sued, and it's going to be a big fucking problem, because you have thousands of people that have unfortunately given into this. Kids are extremely malleable. They're extremely easy to manipulate.
They're extremely easy to influence. We've always known this. It's one of the reasons why you don't let children get tattoos. It's one of the reasons why you don't let children join the military. It's one of the reasons why you don't let children have children.
It's one of the reasons why we have ages of consent, because we know they're not young enough. They're not smart enough. They're not old enough to make their own decisions. They can be manipulated. So if they can be manipulated that way, why the fuck would we think they can't be manipulated by this emerging market, which is gender care, this gender affirming care?
Have you ever seen the map of gender care from 2007 versus 2022? Have you ever seen that?
Yeah, I saw it somewhere.
I'll send it to you, Jamie, so you can take a look at it, but it's fucking bananas. It's a business. My friend, who is a doctor, told me that his friend, who is a plastic surgeon who moved into gender transition care, he told me the difference between what that person gets paid for an arthroscopic surgery versus what they get paid for a gender transition. I forget what the number was for arthroscopic surgery, but for the gender transition, he gets $70,000 every time he does this. And he goes, and this guy is raking it in.
He's doing them all week.
It's so scary.
It's the cure to all that ails for a lot of people. They think, oh, well, this is what's going to fix me. I'm fucked up. Why am I fucked up? What's wrong with me?
What's my problem? Oh, I'm really a girl. Or, oh, I'm really a boy.
And you know, kids, they don't want to be an outsider. Exactly.
It's kind of invoked to be non-binary or whatever.
30% of kids today recognize themselves either as trans, gay, bi, or non-binary. 30%. Now look at this. Yeah. The pediatric gender clinics.
in 2007, there was two. One was in Virginia and one looks like it was in Massachusetts. And now look at them. They're all over the country. And this is in 2022..
I mean, that's crazy. The idea that this is just. they're recognizing there's a problem that existed all the time but wasn't being treated, that's nuts. That doesn't make sense. Especially when you're talking about children.
They're fucking kids.
Yeah, they're kids.
Kids.
And there's a thing called Munchausen's by proxy. Yeah. You know, where women, sick women, will make their children ill. They will do it on purpose, so that they get attention for their children. There's been women out there, evil, crazy people that have poisoned their children.
Yeah, I've seen a couple of documentaries about it.
It's nuts.
Yeah.
It's a psychological disorder, just like gender dysphoria. It's a psychological disorder. It's always been listed as a psychological disorder. And now, in 2024, everyone who is a man who thinks he's a woman is brave and amazing. No one's sick.
So you're allowing people that are absolutely perverts and sex offenders to go into women's locker rooms with a heart on. And no one can say anything. And if you say something, they will protest your business and shut you down. There's no room for any nuance. There's no room for someone to say, hey, listen, for some people, there's clearly this thing in them that makes them feel like they're in the wrong body.
And if we are compassionate and if we are kind, we would want that person to be able to express themselves in any way they want. that makes them feel better, that helps everybody. But also there's perverts. But also there's people that, if they find out, all they have to do is pretend they're a woman and they can go in the women's locker room and watch women change, they'll do that too. You see, I'm sure you've seen the guy in Canada, the 50 year old man that identifies as a 15 year old girl and got to change in the young girls locker room and got to compete with these young girls.
It's utter, complete insanity.
Psychosis. Yeah.
Yeah. First of all, you're 50.. You're not 15.. Period. Period.
That's, that's fucking, that's not negotiable. You know, you live a certain amount of time. Period. You can't say I identify as a baby and then wear diapers and have everybody take care of you. That's fucking crazy.
But the fact that they're letting that, we are one step away from minor attracted persons being something that everybody's cool with. Because that's also on the agenda. And every now and then they sneak that out there. Every now and then you'll see it in universities, see people talking about it. We have these, this is one maligned group that has no support.
Minor attracted persons. Yeah.
It's sick.
It's sick. It's sick. It's sick. And the rest of the world is fucking laughing at us. Yeah.
They're laughing at how crazy, especially Russia. They think it's hilarious. They're laughing at how ridiculous we are.
I bet you Putin's probably going to say something about that in this interview.
I hope he does.
Yeah.
And he would be right.
I just don't, I don't know why they're just so hell bent on going after the kids. Obviously there's.
I think it's money.
There's huge money in it.
I think it's money. And it's also the waving the flag of woke, you know? I mean, it's just, it's, it's crazy. It's really weird.
It's really weird. But you've had people on here talk about the development of the brain, right? Yes. And it's all the way to what?
25?? 25 for men. Yeah. Women develop earlier. They, they, they're, they get their shit together quicker, but we know that in real life.
Yeah. There's something about men. We don't get it. I think back to the time when I was 21.. Yeah.
I was fucking idiot. Yeah. Yeah. Just pumped up full of hormones and just driving too fast and doing stupid shit. Yeah.
That's why they get young men to go to war. They don't know any better. Yeah. Yeah.
But leave the kids alone.
Leave the fucking kids alone. Especially, you know, what's really hilarious. There's this guy that interviewed all these people and said, do you believe that it's okay to encourage young people to transition? All these blue head, blue hair people like, yes, I do. To Catholicism?
And they're like, no.
I love it. And they were doing the same thing with tattoos. Do you think 12 year olds is too, too young to get a tattoo? Yeah. They don't know any better.
But what about change their gender? Yes. They know. Okay. Okay.
It's just ideology, man. It's just like, it's, you might as well be a Scientologist. You might as well be a Mooney. It's the same thing. Yeah.
It's the same sort of religious-like thinking that exists in all sorts of groups of people that we call cults. But we don't want to call these hardcore leftists. We don't want to call it a cult. But Marc Andreessen had a really good analysis of it on the podcast, where he said it has everything that every cult has. It has strict adherence to the rules.
It has excommunication. When you get kicked out, how they fucking go after you. And it's devastating socially. It's like all the same things that Scientology does. All the same things that a lot of other cults do.
But we don't want to look at it as a cult. Because you see the rainbow flag. You see the LBG. What is the two, the I, the A, and the plus? What's the I?
I don't know.
Some of them are asexual. I think they should stay the fuck out of it. If you're asexual, stay out of it. If you say you're asexual, good. That's fine.
I believe there are some people that are asexual. Stay out of it. Stay out of it. You're not in a malign group. Nobody's fucking going after asexuals.
Nobody discriminates against asexuals. So if they're in there, is that the A? Yeah. Fuck off, asexuals. Get the fuck out of here.
Okay, what's the two? Two-spirit. Oh, like Foxkin. That's me, bro. I'm a wolf-spirit.
I know.
I think two-spirit has to do with Native Americans. Oh, okay. That's what I think. Oh, look at the LBGTQ flag. It pulsates.
Does any other flag pulsate?
I don't think so.
Two-spirit. Yeah. A modern pan-Indian umbrella used by some indigenous North Americans to describe Native people and their communities who fulfill a traditional third general ceremonial and social role in their cultures. Yeah, but that's also what the Lakotas had. So the Lakota recognized transgender people as someone who was a revered member of society, because they understood both men and women.
They also had something called a Hayoka, which was a sacred clown. They had this one guy who made fun of everything. Because if you couldn't make fun of things, they were bullshit. Right. And so that's the way they would test things.
You get mad, they're making fun of that? Oh, that's bullshit. You're bullshit. If someone made fun of you for being really good at football, you'd be like, okay, you can't make fun of that. Say all you want.
You're not going to hurt my feelings. You're Aaron Rodgers. You're really fucking good at football. If someone makes fun of that, but if someone made fun of your mustache and you're like, hey man, fuck off. Oh, you got a problem with that mustache.
You think that mustache is stupid. And so that's how they would test things in their culture that were bullshit.
But that's why we need comedy. I mean, that's what I've loved about South Park for so many years.
They're the tip of the spear. Yeah.
Just how they're able to go, hey, society, what the fuck are we doing?
They're the best. They're a national treasure. They really are. No matter what, they can get away with it. They go so hard in the paint.
Where would we be without South Park? I mean, where would we be without South Park, for real? God damn. And how about the Simpsons? How would the Simpsons keep fucking calling it?
Predicting everything.
They predicted the Apple Vision Pro. There's an old Simpsons episode where people are walking around with those goggles and they're falling into manholes. Now you're seeing people out there in the street swiping things and moving away and wearing these goggles on the street.
I can't believe they got Trump on the escalator, though. That, to me, is one of the craziest ones, when they got him riding the escalator down like he did in that one moment where I think he had just declared for the presidency and he kind of rode this elevator down. Yeah, how did the Simpsons do that?
This is what I think.
Time traveler?
I don't think time traveler. But I think that if you're so into... This one right here. Here it is. Look at this.
They literally had Trump waving. It's the same photo. It's so crazy. God, that's so nuts. Oh, wait a minute.
People think the Simpsons predicted Trump's win, but it's what? What does that say, Jamie? On the right-hand side? What are they saying? It's not true?
It's not true. Viral image claiming this show. Scroll back up. Called the 2016 electoral map. Has nothing to do with Trump.
The claim the Simpsons not only foresaw Donald Trump's run for president, but also predicted which states he'd carry, making the rounds. The claim is wrong. They're just saying the claim. too much, I believe. But that picture...
But the picture is. they had Trump coming down the escalator, and he was going down the escalator. And he did wave his right hand. The thing is, it's the same image. No matter what, the fact that he did that, and they predicted it.
I feel like some people, if you're intensely creative, and clearly those guys are. If you're constantly... You have your thumb on the pulse of satire and culture, and where things are headed. I think you can see things. I think you get whispers from the muse.
I think the universe sends you messages. There's been talk about that in Diana Pasolko's book, American Cosmic. The first book.
He gave me that rec before he died. She's fascinating. I'm going to read that.
But in that book, one of the things they go into is 2001.. And the monolith.
Whatever it is that brings this monolith to these primitive primates. And they see this thing. And this thing sort of represents where they're going to and what the future is. It's kind of... In the book, they theorize whether or not that's a television, or it's a screen, or it's a cell phone.
But it's this something that's pulling us towards it. And that Kubrick recognized that. But Kubrick was a fucking genius. Like a real scary genius. He would do complex mathematics in his spare time.
And all of his movies were encoded with all this weird Easter Egg-y stuff. Like The Shining.
Shining with the shirt.
It's all about the moon landing. Even the amount of miles to the moon is the exact same number as the room that was haunted. The kid wearing the NASA shirt. There's so many things that people connect with the moon landing. And then the ultimate conspiracy theory was that Kubrick faked the moon landing.
Oh, that, yeah.
That's the best one. I love that one. That's my favorite.
Yeah, I like that one too.
Yeah. Eyes Wide Shut is pretty crazy.
Oh my god, that is pretty crazy. Because back when Eyes Wide Shut first came out, everybody was like, well, that's not real. And then you hear about Epstein's Island. And you're like, maybe it was. Maybe there are parties like that.
But there's a conspiracy that he was killed because of that movie. Really? You know about this? So supposedly he showed the movie to the executives, and they wanted him to take out 15 minutes of the movie. Everybody got kicked out of the theater.
Again, I'll probably get fact-checked on this. And then a few days later.
Where did you read this? Was it on Reddit?
Let's see it. Come on.
Here it is. Kubrick died of a heart attack six days after showing the final cut of Eyes Wide Shut to Warner Brothers. Making it the final film he directed, he reportedly considered his greatest contribution to the art of cinema.
Wow. I suppose he got into a yelling match with the executives about some of the stuff that was in it.
Was he murdered because of Eyes Wide Shut? But what was so egregious about that film that they would murder him, though? I mean, exposing too much?
Sex cults?
Yeah, I don't trust Cora. I don't trust any fact-checking organizations anymore. There was a weird number of things at the bottom.
He died five days later. That's, I mean, that's... You can get nutty with that stuff. That gets a little crazy. Yeah.
But that's a crazy movie, the fact that he did, you know. Yeah. He kind of showed some of that stuff. There's weird stuff, like at the end of the movie too, when those two guys come and get their daughter and stuff. There's a lot of weird stuff.
Well, that weird stuff, it used to be so easy to dismiss. But now, you know, it's the Alex Jones was right meme. Like, do you realize how many times that guy's been right? Like, Jesus Christ. Like, how is he so good at predicting all these things that are happening?
Because the guy's balls deep in it all day long. Yeah. You could call him right now. It's like, I'm doing the documents. I'm reading the research right now.
This is sick. This is what they're doing. This is the plan. I talk to him all the time. We text each other.
Every time something's crazy, I'll text him. Like, what is this? And he'll send me all these fucking documents.
He's talking about, I saw something he said the other day about, you know, you got to have your shit ready in case they turn the power off,
turn the water off, do something like that. Well, there's a lot of people that think that, including me. Because if I was a foreign government and I wanted to cripple America, I would kill the power grid. We'd go feral in two weeks. It would be chaos in two weeks.
As soon as people don't have water and food and their children are starving, people go crazy. They start eating dogs. They start shooting deer in their neighborhood. And then that runs out. And then they realize they don't know how to keep food.
good. You know, when it's hot out, they don't know how to get water. They don't know how to treat water. It could get real bad, real quick. We are not self-sufficient, even remotely.
There's small pockets of human beings in this country that are self-sufficient. But if you had to guess how many people could survive off-grid if everything went haywire, it's like 1%, which is probably what happens when there's a massive catastrophe. Some sort of a global catastrophic event like a super volcano or something along those lines.
Another Younger Dryas situation.
Yeah, it's probably 1% of the people survive.
That's probably what happened back then, too.
Yeah. Well, that's what I've always said is the reason why, if you go back, look at like ancient Egypt. Look at how insanely sophisticated they were. And if you subscribe to the Graham Hancock and Randall Carlson's perspective, which I do, which is that at one point in time, there was an incredibly sophisticated society, probably more sophisticated than we are, that lived in Africa, in Egypt, and that those people were probably in a different direction, but far more advanced than we are today. And then they were wiped out.
And then go after that. So if you're talking about 11,000 years ago, 11,800 years ago, when they got wiped out, and just were down to like 1% of the population, think about what history looks like when you go back 4,000 years, 3,000.. It's fucking barbarians. Yeah. Just the most horrible instances of brutality and murder and chaos, and what Genghis Khan did and what the Mongols did, and what, I mean, the pirates and the crusades and all the fucking horrible shit that people did back then.
Because those were the descendants of the people that were so barbaric that they survived. Those are the descendants of the 1% that made it through that catastrophe. And you had to be fucking horrible to do that. Yeah. You probably had to be horrible.
You were probably killing your neighbors, probably eating people. I mean, what percentage of our population, if you go back, 10,000 years ago, were cannibals? It's probably pretty high.
50?.
It's probably pretty high. You had to do what you got to do. We know what happens to the Donner Party. We know what happens to people that get stuck on a boat. They're off at sea, and one guy dies.
They just start eating them. We know that.
The movie Alive.
Yeah, it always happens. It always happens.
