038: Tooth Smoke

Foiled again. Boris. Hello and welcome to episode number 38 of unrelenting unrelieved Show. Yes. Wow. 38. We're almost to 40. Mm hmm. I'm Darren O'Neil. He is. He goes by Sir Jean. I mean, nobody knows what his real. Name actually is. That's right. He's from a bunker somewhere deep, deep down near the border. It's probably an. Iceberg that. You're looking. Yeah. Well, you're a lot closer to the border than I am. And I'm in. I'm in probably one of the most socialist parts of America right now.

Are you enjoying that? No, I hate it. The insanity. It's too hard to go anywhere, so I'm waiting it out. You wait till it cools down. Yeah, that's what I said last year, too. I was like, Hey, you know, I'm going to move out of Austin, but I'm not going to do it in the heat of summer. I'm going to wait till it's nice and cool. Or are you are you going to move south so you can get even warmer? Yeah, that's the plan. Go into maybe Mexico. I mean, I could see you as a mexican drug lord.

Cartoon leader. Drug lord. Yeah. Yeah. Please me. Now, I don't. I don't even drink anymore. Well, it doesn't mean you can't move the stuff around. Yeah, that's true. I do have some logistics towns. The big news, though, of the week, of course, they don't call it a raid. Raid of Donald Trump's Mar a Lago residence. Of somebody did not call it a raid. That's the new thing that they the left doesn't want it to be called a raid. What were they calling you?

I'm probably, like, just an investigation or something. Mm hmm. I mean. This was just this was just a normal stop. You know, the FBI was just in the neighborhood, and they they wanted to drop by and say hi to the former president, as well as one would. I mean, I've always wanted to live in the Banana Republic, and I guess I got my wish. They wanted you to go fondle Melania's panties. I believe that was that. Yeah. And I'll tell you.

Again, it's it literally sounds like a story from a lot of the countries south of here. Yeah. This is what happens when you have a military comes in. Yeah. Mm hmm. You're like. Well, we don't like those old guys. So we're like a country east of here, like, say, Ukraine, for example, where the the political rivals imprisons. It is a very corrupt country. America. Ukraine. Yes. Yes. Mm hmm.

I mean, we've talked about all of that, but the with Ukraine, the whole concept that the current regime is good is like, well, no, they were shutting down television stations. They were getting rid of the opposition. But with this Trump story, the best thing about this now, I don't know if you've seen any of the coverage of this. A little bit. Did you see the lawyer that Donald Trump has that was on both new HANNITY and O'Reilly? Yes, not once either one of those. Well, you need to YouTube.

Okay. Trump's attorney, Lindsay Lindsey. Why Halligan? Okay. And this will come up, I'm sure, from last night. And I'm sure he'll show up until sometime. Well, it's a it's a she. Or even better. And the. The. I mean, I really couldn't help myself. My wife and I were watching O'Reilly up on the screen and I'm like, now that's a lawyer. Mhm. Because let's see, like a Fox News lawyer. Hotter than any of the women ever on Fox.

Really. Yeah. That's, that's their that was the original channel, you know, stereotype or model they were going for is we want a hot lawyer to be the news anchor. You had them like Donald Trump. Good good hire. That's really all that I could think of. But she was on the grounds with the FBI in this whole thing. So much so she's living in their house? No, but she was called once. Be pretty hot. Yeah, I. Know. I'd be like, hey, there you go. Who needs a nanny when you got a hot lawyer? Uh huh.

And she knows exactly what you could do legally, because lawyer. Yeah, yeah. Well, but legal is, you know, depends on the definition of legal. Yeah. That's true. It depends on the jurisdiction and how corrupt the legal system and judges are. In your particular. The FBI is definitely the private police of the federal branch.

But the interesting thing here was the first thing she said that kind of would send up red flags, I think for anybody was the FBI would not allow her in or anybody in while they were doing the search, which. Right. Doesn't make sense. It's like this. As long as you're not interfering, you're an officer of the court as a lawyer. Mm hmm. So this was kind of above and beyond. And this is already being questioned if there was any legal reason to keep Trump's representation out.

But the other thing that they asked for before they went in was all of the security cameras to be turned off. Oh, yeah. Right. Mm hmm. It's like. Yeah. Are you kidding me? This is what criminals would want. Like, well, before we go into this property, we would like all of the cameras turned off so you can't see what we're doing. Yeah, that's not that unusual. I think that's fairly common. Ask. Well, they don't.

Well, and I guess in this case, Trump, like any normal, well-adjusted human being, does not have cameras in the residence pointing in. Well, I'll let you hold on. Hold on. Let just all normal people absolutely do. I've had cameras in every house I've had. Running into the rooms that you're. Obviously obviously in recorded off sites. You wouldn't want that shit disappearing when somebody comes in with a warrant, would you? I wouldn't want that disappearing when somebody comes in with a warrant.

But I also don't want to be prancing around in my underwear, as I often do. What do you care. And have that video. For your video? It depends, but if it's going off site, then again you want to make sure you can keep control. Yeah, it's encrypted of all of that. Well, yeah, if you're if you're doing it correctly. And you're suggesting Trump didn't have people. Well, that's true. He doesn't know how to hire very well losing. He does the well. He fires a lot.

Yeah, but eventually you should hit somebody. He has to fire a lot because he doesn't know how to hire. Well. But I thought that was interesting. The fact that they took over 8 hours and they still don't know what was removed from the residence. It is going to be interesting because I think they have only until Monday now. So we're on the clock until Monday for all of this to be unsealed because really, Trump wants this to be unsealed.

So if there was an allegation, if there is a whistleblower, if there is information in that warrant. Mm hmm. Then everybody's going to know what it is. And this is the question NBC. Indicates at all. And I haven't seen this, whether this was tied to Jeffrey Epstein or whether this was tied to Hillary, whether this was tied to Trump being a Russian puppet, what was this tied to? They're claiming this is about nuclear weapon information. Now, which is like a Chinese. Nuclear weapon information.

I don't mean nuclear weapon, which that. I don't know. We need a lot more clarification on exactly what they thought Trump brought, because one of the interesting things, which I didn't really know, although it seems to make sense in the way the hierarchy of the United States government works. Mm hmm. When it comes to classified information. And that was the first thing. And like, well, Trump removed classified information from the blah, blah, blah, unlike Hillary. Right.

Now, the difference, though, is that there's somebody that in the United States with enough power to declassify any document. And that is the president. That's correct, yeah. So if the president decides to declassify a document, it doesn't matter what it is. He goes declassified. It's done. Mm hmm. So can a president illegally actually remove classified documents? Because all he has to go is declassify them before I left. I mean. That's. Well, yeah.

I mean, it's not that. It's it's. No. But there has to be a. Relative that there has to be. No other company. There does not. And that's not really followed that much, believe it or not. Whether it's true or not, that's the way it works. I'm just straining. There's a yeah, there's a specific process for declassification, even if it's done on a whim by the president. Yeah. Even if it's like, I just need to press this button and go, Hey, declassifying. One, two, five, six, seven, eight.

Well, yeah. And he can he can absolutely do it verbally as long as that is then properly executed and documents is recorded as being declassified. I'm guessing this was something that Trump did. If he just didn't do it and then pretending that he did it, that's a whole different issue.

Well, there was talk of a specific incident where there was a classified photo and it had to be Trump, unless it was Obama that was tweeted out that there was a classified photo that was tweeted out and it was well, they then took it as well, obviously, if the president tweeted out this photo. Mm hmm. He was declassifying it because he was sharing it with the world.

And they thought that was enough where, you know, you didn't have to go and stamp it and say, I'm declassifying this first just by using it in such a manner, declassified it. And so I don't know what is normally done. I don't know what the letter of the law is. But it's certainly going to be an interesting argument if it's strictly about confidential secret documents. Now. Yeah, I mean, he could certainly do it.

And he's not the only one that can declassify things, you know, pretty much by thinking or deciding to do it at whim, if you will. But it's it can't be retroactive. It has to have actually happened at that point. And that that would require. What American paper trail requirement is that? I don't know what it is, because otherwise Trump could just say, well, I told my lawyer, I told whoever that I was declassifying these documents. That, yeah, it can't be the lawyer.

It depends on what type of document it is, which agency it came from, and what the classification was. Now, the fact that they're saying it may be about nuclear weapons, you're kind of going down that pathway of. So do they think Trump's like selling our secrets to the Chinese? I thought that was Biden and his kid were selling them. Yeah, they exactly. I. Okay, so let's we're going to jump topic slightly. Sure. But is this nuclear related? So I have zero proof of anything.

This is just purely hearsay they have heard. But it's interesting stuff that the zapper, the nuclear power plant, which is one of the if not the largest one in Europe right now that is currently held by Russia and being shelled by Ukraine, that Ukraine doesn't want nuclear. What do you call them? Investigators, I don't know. Inspecting inspectors. That's the word, right? They don't want them showing up there until it's in their control, which seems kind of weird, right?

It's like, well, what do they give a shit whose control it's under? I thought the whole point was to make us make sure it's safe. Right? Right. They need to verify that the. The, you know, water pressure, crap, oil or whatever is in there is correct. The core is being cool. There's no leaks that everything is.

Spinning. Correctly. So the theory that's going around, which again I have zero proof of, is that the reason that Ukraine doesn't want them inspectors in there is because they've been using that power plant to create original nuclear material for a weapons program. Well, that would be inconvenient. Yeah. Which is also why it may be better for them to blow up the evidence and have a massive radiation area. Okay. So it's not really covering the lower part of the. Ukraine power plant.

You have to have those questions come up as like, well, how about why is this actually running in a different cycle? That would be what is used to generate material for nuclear weapons, which is, of course, the way the American radiation plants running, because that's exactly what they're doing. There's no secret about it that our nuclear plants in this country are dual purpose. They're they're both generating material for atomic weapons and they are providing electricity, corruption everywhere.

But I mean, potential we don't like I said, I have no no proof of this. But this is the theory that's going around as to why they could possibly be injecting. Kind of makes sense. I mean, it's nothing more, like you said, than a conspiracy. But we'd like to know why. It's a it's a theory about a conspiracy in Ukraine, you know. And this is what we're getting. And this is, I think, was the biggest deal with the Trump raid. MM hmm.

You know, I know they don't want you to call it a raid, but I don't know what else you classify as if 30 to 40 after, I guess maybe an inspection. Right. Right. It's kind of like the Ukraine doesn't want a a U.N. raid or inspectors at their power plant. Probably. Mm hmm. But the fact was, the reason why was not given. And there's a lot of things where the reason is the most important thing, as in the case of, well, why won't you let inspectors into the nuclear plant? Why not?

I mean, what what's the reason? Same thing with the Trump thing. The reason he's doing that as a reason to do all kinds of nasty things to Iran when they were not letting inspectors in. Like that was they're saying, what's the. Ultimate? It's like, oh, okay, you have to let the. Weapons inspectors in other. Are we going to start saying sanctioning Ukraine because they're refusing the inspectors? They should, although we're just sending in more money. I don't know. That's I would like yeah.

I would not have the same deal according to the leader there. Well, it's interesting. That he'd like to have his trillion dollars to date. Please. I did like that. Even the the vehement lefties like Roger Waters, you know, musician extraordinaire. Oh, that was a good video. Yeah, well. He was, you know, again, he was one of these guys where it didn't matter if it was Trump or it was not Trump. I don't know if he said much about him, but Bush, you know, war criminal and all that. Mm hmm.

So I'm assuming the left was not quite prepared for him to be calling Biden a war criminal. For it was very animated. Prompting this war by giving all of these weapons and money to Ukraine, to do it at the peril of the Ukrainian people. When Russia was saying, we want to sit down and talk, the White House was saying, no, don't do that. Mm hmm. So who's really prompting the wars, right?

Yeah. If anybody thinks for a second that Zelensky wouldn't be sitting in Florida in one of his mansions instead of filming videos in Ukraine. I hear he's a neighbor of Mar a Lago. He is actually he does have a house down there. Maybe that's what they were looking for. Is there a title? Wrong address. Wrong address, wrong shit? Yeah. Well, it just looked. For nuclear weapons information and Zelensky sales. Right. They said go. Go to the president's house in Florida.

There was always the wrong president. Vice president? Exactly. That would be great. Let's do. It. That would be somebody do a mean CSB. Can you do that? Do that. Have any funny cartoon. Going wrong president. Wrong president? Yeah. No, it's it is, it is pretty awesome. But yeah, if anybody thinks he'd still be there if it weren't for all the money coming in from the US, then you're nuts because we're there. No money and weapons coming. He would have been out of there in a heartbeat.

This war would have been over and done with and there would have been peace for the Ukrainian people. You know, the end result probably is going to end up being a much smaller Ukraine the longer this goes on, because the from what I can tell anyway and again, who the hell knows what's going to happen eventually? But from what I can tell, the talk right now is that that any he's he's sufficiently pissed off Putin that any territorial gains made right now are non-negotiable.

So wherever the war stops, wherever Russians are, where that line of occupation is, is going to be, where the new territory of Ukraine is, there's not going to be any pullback. There would have been a pullback to just Donbas and obviously Crimea, which is already part of Russia, but there are and pull back to that when they were negotiating three months ago because they wanted a buffer. At this point, it's well beyond that.

And Ukraine has demonstrated their interest in, well, not just prolonging the war, but in really in in trying to kill as many Russians as possible, which was definitely not Russia's aim here. It was not to kill as many Ukrainians as possible. That's evident by what Russia has not attacked, but that Ukraine did. Ukraine blew up the bridges. Ukraine is shelling nuclear power plants.

You know, Ukraine keeps while we've seen the end result of Ukrainian propaganda efforts, including now proof coming out that all those bodies tied up and dead in the streets were in fact, Ukrainians doing this after the Russians left the city. But there's been several videos with people interviewed that were there residents talking about refrigeration trucks coming in in the middle of the night and then bodies in the up on the street the next day? Well, it's one way to get the photo op.

It's a great photo op because whether, you know, here's the thing. I think they've they've realized that using actors like they did in Syria for a gas attack doesn't work because, you know, people get tired, they want to scratch their noses, they move around, they can't act dead. And so they realized, look, if we're going to have these scenes of dead people scattered around, we have to get some dead people. So let's go find some time.

I just think it's ironic that the United States will go to this extent to say, no, we can't have Russians crossing those Ukrainian borders when they won't spend a iota of energy to keep people from coming in the borders of the United States. Oh, I see where you were going with that. Okay. Yeah. You need a break because the. Ukrainian borders is about as open as the U.S. southern border is right now. And the only reason the US northern border isn't open is because Canada has shut it down.

And really, who wants to go to Canada? So, I mean, it's not like anybody's trying to get in there either. Just Canadians trying to go home through there. But they go home. I want my free health care, goddammit. But we did get a booster grant from your biggest fan comic strip blogger now. And he says Jean is not merely a Russian apologist, but citizenship holder. He has current Russian passport. Oh, ask him if you don't believe me. So the I now have a current Russian passport.

I do not know. There you go. Now, if you can prove that's wrong, CSB provide that documentation. Yeah. I mean, if you, if you get me one dude let me know because at this point, that may not be a bad thing for him. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know she's BS get contacts if he can reach this polish can't get their forged one made for me that'd be awesome. CSB could actually be the spook in spot. The spook. Too obvious? No. See? Well, this is it. This is hiding in plain sight.

There was an article the other day like if you're staying in a sketchy hotel room, like where you can hide your money, it's like, well, one night in the sketchy hotel room, but it was like, well, put it shampoo bottles and you know, that can never. Put in shampoo bottles. Those are always the first things checked. Yeah, well, this is what you get with the Internet today. I think it was Lifehacker. Or maybe it was. Maybe it was something else.

Like, I just usually slam because they're the ones with these kind of really idiotic articles that just seem to keep popping up. But if you remember back in the day. Hacker has horrible articles. They're they're written by people that are paid $5 to read my article. But it was used to be a good website like ten years ago. Maybe 20, maybe. Okay. 20 is probably about right where it was like, hey, this is interesting stuff.

And I think it's because there's only so many times you could regurgitate the same information because in reality, to live a good life, to have all of these little tips of things to well. Lifehacker is part of the Gizmodo, you know. Good. Yeah. Jalopnik, that whole group of websites are notoriously bad at paying people for actual work, and therefore, the quality of the work was crap. Yes, but it's like that's. You could hide things in plain sight. There's something to be said with that.

I mean, I. Know. That there are products out there and I. Have I have $100 bills just laying around. This is just like you're just laying on the ground. So people. Yeah, man, but but you don't know which ones of those are forged and which ones are real or. Which ones are covered with enough fentanyl to kill you. That would be all of them. Let's so it's a it's a no win situation. I'm just saying, if you see money, don't pick it up. At this point in time. That is a reality.

If you see a dollar bill, do. Not. Pick it up. Not worth it. There are some really cool you know, they call them safes, but they're just diversion devices that look exactly like a can of soda or a can of shaving cream. Those, I think, could do a decent job if somebody is going through your house quickly or your room quickly that they might not, although in a hotel room, I think any of those bottles are. Coming back, check jewelry hidden in fake bottles is very common, so I wouldn't go there.

If you want an actual recommendation for a place to hide, a false bottom garbage can is not a place most people look. That would make sense. Yeah. Especially the kitchen. One that has some you know, foodstuffs. They're starting to rot. Well, this is also most garbage cans, like the ones that we have. I mean, you put a bag that into it, but if you if you leave anything at the bottom of that can underneath the bag. Mm hmm. I guess they would have to. Take the bag out.

Yeah, but you can actually get false bottom garbage cans. Those, I think, are more rare. And they're. They're better than fake bottles of shampoo. Yeah, most people aren't looking for it. That's the that's the trick. Just put it somewhere, you know, it's just so far bizarre. Yet another way, another thing that I've seen somebody do is to tape something like a small package of something valuable, like money or something to the inside side of the shredder basket. Oh, that's interesting, too.

Yeah. So, you know, it's it's should be inconspicuous enough with one thing the same color as the inside of the basket. But first of all, most people aren't going to look inside a shredder basket because it's shredded to what would you look there for? But even if they dump all that stuff out, if you wanted something that's just literally taped to the side. The more you know, you know. And then there's the other diversion, which is, you know, if you've got $1,000, you're hiding somewhere. Mm hmm.

Put 100 on its own in a fairly open set, you know, that, you know, will be found. Right. And then most people will be like, oh, well, there's there. That was their stash. Okay. Well, what you described is actually the secret to going through Border Patrol. Let them find a little. When you have a lot. That's one. Yeah, that works almost every time. Like here. Here you go. Yeah, yeah. I don't know if we should call these tips. That's bordering on. Not really. Here's how you rob somebody's house.

It's not really a tip, but. It lets you know what you need to do to be. Let's say you want to let's say you work as a Border Patrol agent. This is right for Border Patrol agents.

That's very specific. Yes. And you have a vehicle that's coming through across the border and you ask them all the standard questions and then as the person is telling you, they don't have any fruits or vegetables or anything, you literally see that that they have a bag of apples sitting in the front seat and they're like, well, what about those? And then they say, Oh, shit, yes, I do have fruit, I guess. Yeah, I get I bought those to snack on. I didn't even think about it.

And they said, well, you can't bring those anything like Oh shit, I get to get fined for this and they're all worried about it. And, and Jason, all you have to get rid of them here where there's a can right there for things you can't bring in. Oh, thank you so much. Yes, I didn't you know, I don't want to get in trouble. I want to do this. That's the guy that's got the the five k of marijuana in the back. Yeah, but it's that that's that's the guy, I promise you.

Hey, you know, it's good to see you got to just be a good actor. You got to know where they're looking. You have to know how you can how you can avoid it. You have to be good at improv. Yeah. You have to be able to go along. And not. Freak out. There's some people that the exact minute something's a little breaks. I'll tell you the one place I get caught, which is pretty damn funny. It was in Australia, in Melbourne at the airport.

I, I was flying down there and I got a, you know, I bought a tourist visa or whatever. Yeah. Whatever. The normal standard thing is when you fly to Australia and when I was going through customs you know the customs check said, well so what are you here for? And they said, Oh, I'm just here for taking in the sights. Never been before. So probably relax in the beach a little bit and you know, look at your beautiful city and see what it is. Again, do that. But you're only here for three days

like. Yeah. And she was like, okay, so you, you know, were you staying I told you in a hotel, you're saying there then you're going to be in here for taking insights. It's like, yeah. And all the while her peers are spending going this story. She opened up, she opens up my luggage and I have, uh, three suits and a couple pairs of shoes. Dress shoes. No beachwear. Sometimes no beachwear. You're like, you don't know how how I relax on the beach. And she so that made her suspicious.

And now she's like, so what's your real purpose for being here? I'm like, What do you mean? I'm a tourist? That's my purpose. I'm going to be a tourist. So eventually I get pulled over into a separate room. Then her supervisor shows up or whatever, and he's looking in my bag and he's like, First thing comes out of his mouth, says, All right, so you didn't know you're supposed to get a business visa when you came here at the airports. Right? And I was like.

Is this like the Beavis and Butthead episode where you get to buy something and it's all printed on the wall? And then he's like, How old are you? And they're like 15. And he's like pointing at the side, How old are you? This is what's going on. And I'm like, Yeah, I guess I forgot I got the wrong visa. You're exactly right. He says. All right, put stuff back in. Surrender, don't do again. You're going to get put your stuff back and go try again.

The look that this chick gave her boss was priceless because she she really thought she had me here. I was sneaking into the country for illegal activities, and her boss just completely nonchalantly just gave me the free option and get out of jail card and said, all right, just go pay for the other visa. You're done. Go. And then you picked up the £500,000 of marijuana where. You don't pick up marijuana should doesn't grow very well in Australia. No, except for poisonous animals.

You can definitely pick those up there. There was a a really interesting enough for me to listen to the full audio of Dale Earnhardt Jr's podcast, because he is an interesting podcast. He does interviews with different people and the the peacock, you know, the streaming thing, the Comcast arm, they turn them into like 55 minute videos, but the podcast can run two or 3 hours, so they only go, you know, cut it down.

And the one I watched last night looks like it was released about a week or so ago was with a guy named Randy Lanier, who was an IndyCar driver back in the day, but also a massive drug smuggler at the time, ended up doing 27 years in prison. But just some of the stuff they talked about. The same thing you realized he should have been a NASCAR driver. If you're smuggling drugs. He should have said it was where NASCAR started from there. Tell people the history, right? Well, that's it.

That's how these good old boys got really good at driving. It was because they were trying to move moonshine from place to place on those old roads, and they had to scoop up the cars in order to get away from the police. Yep, exactly. So they had old crappy cars that had really nice engines. And big trucks. Getaway and big trucks. Exactly. So they get all the moonshine and get away from the cops. It was kind of like the premise of Dukes of Hazzard, right?

Yeah. The Moonshine, baby. Mm. They really did have to take this to a whole new level, making that a kid show, didn't they? Just trying to make it like a normal kid show. What do you mean? The Dukes of Hazzard? It was meant for kids. No, it wasn't. Like you see Daisy Dukes. Come on. Yeah, exactly. You see the easy dirt? Come on. That's not a kids show. Yeah, I mean, it's just the. Kids like what little boys of the eighties grew up on dancing and doing things. Her and Olivia Newton-John.

Man, that was sad that she passed away. Yeah. Yeah, but that was we knew was coming. Yeah, well, the cancer is never good. Yeah, but the story she's. She's in the end of do now. Amen. The story that Randy Linear told and how they would go in with the boats and how the ballast works and how they were digging holes in that.

Because of the sides of these boats, they would cut holes in them and then they would fill them with weed and then they would re you know, they'd go through and do the whole thing where they welded the metal back and then the water was on top of it. So it was in the ballast tanks and it was just. Yeah, and we're talking moving a lot of I think you said the one hall was like 100 million in marijuana. This is back in the eighties. So I mean, you know.

By today's Beckman marijuana was more expensive. It was harder to get that. But it was interesting that this was somebody living a secondary life who was good enough to race in the Indy 500, but was also a drug dealer by a well, just by happenstance because he started. Driving pace that well. Well that back then and now I'm guessing a whole lot better. But it wasn't bad. I don't think if you were an Indy 500 driver, I think they were always at the more upper echelon of what.

Top the winner gets paid decent. But I don't know what the number five guy gets paid. True. You have to be a winner. You got to take that prize money. Help. Yeah. It's all about hiding in plain sight. And unlike boxing, it's not just, you know, one winner and one runner up. No, there's a lot of people. There's a lot of runners up. This is it less than NASCAR. And I was kind of surprised that I stopped watching back in like 2005 or so. I think the field was 43, now it's 36.

So they've kind of contracting. And I knew it was getting bad. I mean, I just I joke that I could tell because I laughed and I was a every race watcher and then went back and I think I have that ADHD kind of thing because when I started watching baseball in baseball is a horrible sport for somebody that feels like you have to watch every game. Hmm. This is a lot to many of them. Yeah, that's true. I never really liked NASCAR.

I enjoyed watching the videos of, like, the interviews with the car and talking about what's in the car and stuff. I never really understood the purpose of watching people going in the circle, that to me just seems stupid. It's a lot less now. There's a lot more road courses. I mean, as we talked about, they're going to race on the city streets of yeah. Go like that. That's much more interesting. And I was always into rally into WRC right. That similar driving.

To the Wall Street. Courses. Actual challenging road conditions unlike a circle it's not just trying to avoid getting hit by the guy that's two inches away from you. The guys are usually quite a bit ahead of you or behind you, but it's it's more about you versus it's nature right at the highest speed. Now, when you're racing the streets of Chicago, it's you against Chicago. Yeah. Well, yeah, exactly. Well. The lead comes flying. But this was interesting cause I know we talked about this.

Talked about death, race 2000. You know that they're doing well now. Right? That'll be next year's NASCAR movie. But it's a funny, shitty movie. There's a lot of the politicians here who are not happy because it seems that the mayor or whatever the the contract with NASCAR was only for like a half a million bucks or something. Oh, wow. For his it's like, wait, you bring it. How many million for love? And they're going down the Wacker Drive.

They're going down Lakeshore Drive, Columbus for this was my question and this was some of the stuff that the latest documents that are coming out are showing is that there are going to be portions of there's one part in the you know, where the big bean is in Millennium Park there that is going to be NASCAR is for a little over a month now. The actual streets where this is happening is, I believe it was ten days before and three days after. So there's a full week.

A portion of Lakeshore Drive is going to be shut Columbus is going to be should. Be fucking up a lot of people's traffic. Yeah. This is not going to be a two week period. But I want to say watching watching the drone videos of the cars going down, Lakeshore is going to be very pretty. Oh, well, that's what this is exactly what they're looking for is the background. It is a made for television race. They're saying, well, they might have up to 100,000 spectators. And I'm like, where and why?

I mean. Yeah, I think they are going to have a lot more than that watching on video. Yes. Well, this is where when it comes to this is why I think NASCAR started with going around in circles, because they started at the short tracks now and if you have a quarter mile or a half mile short track, you can sit in the bleachers and you can follow the car fairly easily all the way around the track.

Yeah. Now, when you start getting to places like Indianapolis and Daytona, well that's a little bit harder. Yeah. I have never felt the want or need to go to watch a road course race because it feels like you see your guy come by once every minute and a half or 2 minutes. Yeah, I would agree. The view is so much better on television. Yes, way better. Do you ever watch the. The Monaco, uh, the the racer. What is that called the that. For a while this was the Monaco Grand Prix.

The Grand Prix. Yeah, that's what it was. But the drove coverage even in NASCAR now because this is I hadn't really watched in a couple of decades or a decade and a half. The television coverage is revolutionized now by these the drones that you. All sorts of crazy stuff. I'm just waiting for a drone to like crash into a car. Well, they have avoidance mechanisms in place. I would think so. But something's got to fail at some point. Mm hmm. Yeah, maybe. Maybe not. I don't know.

I think drones are really good at having enough sensors on them these days to where they will actively avoid things if they think they're in danger. And if they're about to lose power, then they just get out of the way at the point that the amount of power left is equivalent to the flight, time to get back to the safe zone is when they start flying back.

It makes it like they so it it'll totally be difference as to when your battery dies depending on how far away your drone is at the time that it figures out the math. You mean they're very safe? It's not like that commercial where the electronic dog jumps off the building and loses power mid-game without suck. Yeah, that's not going to go good. But, you know, you figure. Yeah, I've had a drone that crashed on me that I was flying. Oh, well. It didn't crash on me.

I shouldn't say. That. That would have had a lot more of their data with the video footage. Yes, yes. No. I had a drone that was daring a payload that ended up. Carrying a payload that sounds nefarious. Well, that was expensive. I wouldn't I wouldn't say it was nefarious, but it ended up becoming imbalanced. And combined with the wind that was in place, it had lost its ability to maintain altitude.

And once that happened, it just starting swinging back and forth and dropping like a brick, eventually dropping like a brick onto asphalt and having a debris field around that. Yeah, those are not cheap devices. No, I've actually I've crashed three drones in my life. Oh, well, you're good at it, obviously. I. Well, and I got out of the drone business eventually I was like, you know what? I am not clearly the person to fly.

I mean, if you want to if you Ukraine, if you need to hire somebody for those one way drone jobs where you just fly and crash into something. Yeah call me up. If you know you're drone back. I might be pretty good. Exactly. But no, actually, one of my drones I sold the brand brushwood. Nice like see for the stuff that he does and this is makes the ability to do the aerial shots something the person never had all of a sudden it's way overused even when it's not needed because.

They. Have the ability to do. Yeah, it's available. Yeah. And this was the one I sold them. I think it was the Inspire one. So it's about a $5,000 drone. When I bought it. Was a little like scratched and dented by the time you. Gave it to him. I don't know that I only crashed that one once. It was in perfectly good shape. Had a paint job. It was fine. It was fine. It was it. It's not a really bad crash. It just got stuck in the tree. So somebody had to climb up and get it back down. But not you.

Well, I'm not a big pilot. I can three, please. Come on. Are you supposed to be on. The modern road show, aren't you? Can't he at least get you on one of those the scam school episodes or whatever he's calling them now? Whatever he's calling them, I don't know. I haven't seen Brian in ages. I, I have no idea. I know he's supposed to have another audio book type thing coming out. Yeah, yeah, he's.

I don't know, we, we used to get together in pretty regular basis, but this whole, like COVID thing where I was making fun of him wearing masks, I think that just kind of put a damper on it. He got a little angry about that. He claims not to have gotten angry, but ever since then he hasn't really talked to me. He's like jeans, a dick. Uh huh. He'll be all right. Joe, I just want to do a show. What are they? I should reach out to him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I have plenty of things.

So I'm on my last day of work today. That's right. For the big job. Then you're going full time podcasting. Five days a week. Four days a week. Full time podcasters seem to be very poor. Which everybody is because of the economy and podcast donations and grumpy old Ben's this week nothing and unrelenting this week nothing. What and on on random thoughts. Yeah well I can't you said you get donations from CSB in random thoughts. Well, he just sent in one to do it. One for the preshow. Okay.

Now the pre show that's still doing all right. Okay. Resettlement thing. But it's still doing all right. But overall, everything has gone into a greater nosedive. Well, you know what they say. Value for value. Yeah, that's the value you're providing. And when you have, it's like when people have the value to give back. I get it because I know there's some people that I'll be like, I'm not getting enough. It's like, No We do this for fun. I mean, I'm not saying we won't skip a show here.

And then. Or might have to dedicate some more time to something that can actually make money. But doing the shows is fun. It's you're saying I picked a bad time to be a full time. But yeah, you picked a horrible time to go full time. I mean, unless an out if you have a $1,000,000 nest egg, you could probably skate through being a podcaster for a year or two. Right. Okay. All gravy with me with the Joe Biden hiring a few thousand new IRS agents.

But no. Yeah, you're you know, they're going to start looking at people that put podcaster on their, uh, job titles on their IRS reports. Yeah, but here's the thing. I think those are the people they're not looking at, because if anybody actually and I do, you know, because of the fact of one, PayPal has made it nearly impossible not to if you're using that as not just PayPal, but any way that you're taking money online is going to end up giving you a tax form internally. Absolutely.

So there's nothing you can do to pretend that didn't come in. Now, if stuff that comes in and cash. Checks, cash. You know, checks are still trackable. So cash is about it. Yeah, they are cash smart. It exactly. So I mean, I'm not doubling up. The people that are looking at are the ones that have podcasts and go, yeah, I didn't make any money. You have to you have to do your taxes. 87,000 new IRS agents. That's I was trying to compute this the other day because what do you think?

A new IRS. $87 billion. Right. This is this is the billion dollars per agent. No, it's not. It's 87,000 agents. Uh huh. But it's billions of dollars that they're spending, 200. 57 billion. Now, that's the number they've talked about it. It's 87 billion is the cost. So it's like 100,000 per agent or something like that. Well, at least. That's. A minimum. It's it's absolutely insane. To the men, that's a yearly cost. That's not a that's not a one time cost.

Yeah. Because people actually want to get paid. Mm hmm. I mean. I even slightly different viewpoint on this now that my wife has a government job. Yeah, because. I didn't realize that the government jobs is you get your raises based upon your ability and how well you're doing like every other industry does. But the government also has a built in inflation. Yeah. So it's like, oh, inflation's up 39% this year, getting 39% boost in pay. Yeah, it's like, holy crap, that's crazy.

Well, I did, you know, dealing with the millennials out there that they kind of expect that as well from normal jobs. And it's like that's how it works, right? Somebody has to be profitable first. Yeah. You always go back to the look at what a hamburger joint or a pizza place is going to do. It's like if they're charging $10 for a pizza. Hmm. And their cost goes up by 50%, they certainly cannot afford to pay the workers another 50% higher. Well. It's like this.

Prices are going going up. Yeah. And I think everyone will be replaced by robots at this point. And really the food in most restaurant, I mean, okay, not fine dining, but for fast food, the food will be better if you have a robot making it than a. Because the robot's not going to spit in your. Food. Also true. But they're also going to be consistent, which is that's the one thing anybody that cooks knows this consistency is the hardest thing to. Yeah, keep going and this is why I love watching.

And I know it's just like watching a train wreck and it's like watching the same episode. Every show. But Gordon Ramsay's done these shows. Hell's Kitchen. Yeah, well, the the there was one that he just did, like, 24 hours to hell and back. It's all similar where he goes into a restaurant. Yeah, it is very repetitive and it's the same exact reactions. Yes. And it's over him killed somebody. It's always him overacting and trying to go overboard about how horrible the food is.

And then the episode wraps up with basically the same food with him going, Oh, so delicious. It's like, Dude, nobody's buying this shit, okay? It's a production thing. It is definitely a production thing. It's a it's a guilty pleasure. I like watching that. But it's the consistency because when you're giving these people a lot of times that the people working in the kitchen and these little restaurants are not very well trained. They do not know. No, really how to cook.

And when you've got 20 orders coming in at the same time, the ability to make that steak or whatever the exact same way every time isn't that easy. No. It's hard to do. Just making breakfast for two people. Yeah. You know, it's. Oh, you're going oh I have to put the toasted. Oh jeez. The eggs been on too long. Oh it's rough. So I mean if you find a place that has good food, I mean, Quake three. Yeah. I had a pretty good lunch the other day.

I had a lunch with a friend of mine that we occasionally have lunch, not where we're often, no. Boris. Your handler, Boris. Well, Natasha is your hand without that anyway. Yes, I'm talking about food. Important topic. Yeah. Oh, sorry. And, and so it was this time round said do a full seafood menu. So had crudo some shrimp cocktails a three very and a red snapper that was cooked intact.

I was got it but it was the whole fish with the head and tail and everything on the grill, which was really yummy, very tasting. It was like a crusted red snapper, a butterfly so good. And I, you know, normally I go for the steak, but this time round one for the the that was very, very good. Well, that's where it's harder. It's very easy. I can make one hell of a steak. I butcher fish all the time. It is there is a trick to it.

There is a skill to and I should say not a trick, but knowing exactly how to prepare it. Yeah. That's right. The top chefs make a lot of money. Well, the top chefs, first of all, are good managers. Secondly, they have a sense of style because expensive food has to look good, not just taste good. And then thirdly, generally, they've put in their 10000 hours. Right. They've they've learned their craft. Yeah. It's specialized.

But you can have tasty food that just isn't in that very good presentation and it's usually much cheaper. And unfortunately, you also have expensive restaurants that don't have tasty food, even though it looks nice. Yeah, that's no good. That's to taste good first and foremost. Yeah. And simple. You don't have to be insane in the way you prepare good ingredients. Mm hmm. Now, the bad ingredients, that's where it also takes a little bit more skill to be able to take the.

The nasty bits, as they say, and turn them into something beautiful. Yeah. Like the blood sausage, the black pudding, the best stuff on the plate. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I know you mentioned that before. You like the the black pudding. You like the blood sausage. You know, it's not everybody's. People won't even taste that, which I have at least tried to avoid that thing for most things. Even I remember when we had the country bar restaurant in the area here that served the Rocky Mountain oysters.

I'm like, sure, I'll try that. Why not? And we were with my brother in law at the time, and he didn't know what they were in. He was in these things like there was no tomorrow. He's gone. They were fried up. Yeah, fried up. Bull testicles. Yeah. And you know, they gave him a little certificate afterwards. But what it was, it was hilarious because this was exactly proof positive of what parents tell their children, because when he didn't know what they were, they were delicious.

He couldn't get enough. Yeah. And then the minute you told them what they were, it was like, oh, it's like. But you like them. I mean that's. Yeah, yeah, I could, I could see that but I don't know, I think like I've certainly. Chomp down on a very intense. Double or two. Oh, yeah, absolutely. I've been very receptive to trying new and different foods, but certain foods just don't appeal to me like regular oysters. I would prefer the Colorado ones to the regular oysters. I just don't like them.

And whether you like oysters. Yeah, that's my favorite thing. It's. Yeah, it's like eating sauce, not. Yeah, saltwater snot. Somebody else's snot with some horseradish. Well, see, the French makes it good. It really doesn't. Well, would you have to cover the taste so drastically with something else that. Burns your mouth? Yes. Yeah, yeah. And I think that it's true of sushi as well. Like the really good sushi places will not overuse the horseradish, the wasabi, which is.

They want you to taste the. Because you want to see the fish there. Yeah. And certainly if you order sashimi instead of sushi, then you're in charge of applying how much soy and wasabi you put on there. But the cheap sushi places, that's mostly what you taste is the wasabi. Is they're using the. Stuff. Really taste all that great. Yeah. Yeah. Every Monday I get an email from our local grocery store, which is today. It's Mondays $5 sushi day. And I'm like, nope.

Like all this fish that's been sitting out over the weekends. Probably come. And get it. Like, no, I see. And that's something I've never tried. And I will at some point because I'm just a Luddite when it comes to it. Sushi in general. Yeah. Never tried. Never had sushi, though. Well, you don't really travel. I wouldn't recommend sushi in Chicago. I would recommend sushi in cities close to water. Right. Somewhere that's fresh. Absolutely fresh. And not like water.

That don't want it to be sitting around for any length of time, the less time it is spent not alive. Yeah, it's not generally, all this fish is is flash frozen. So even if you're eating sushi in, you know, Seattle or something, the fish is generally going to be flash frozen. Now, in Japan, you can get sushi that's got fish that's never been frozen. And that's a little more risky because it could still have parasites in there where. The heart still beat and man. Is not that great.

Therefore now in China you could probably get fish that's actually moving in the eat that they're into eating a lot of things. They're really like pound or cat or a dog or, you know, any other critter that happens to be in a cage. Well, the dog could be tasty. I'm guessing I've had dog eat. Dog doesn't taste very good while. People are going to hate you for that. Now. Oh, did I say they hate me for Ukraine? They can't hate me for eating dog. What kind of dog? Where were you? How was it prepared?

Oh, okay. That makes sense. That when you get a natural dog, when it's when you're in the restaurant that has dogs, first you going to try a dog. But if I'm here in Chicago where they're serving dog. Yes, I'm going to avoid that ad. The restaurant probably. Might you might try it. You're like, oh, well, I've tried. I've never had monkey brains. No, I've seen that though at faces. Yes. Oh have you. Yeah. Yeah. Remember that video bar. Where they they they serve the monkey brains live.

Yeah. Where they put the monkey like in the table and then they just like smash its head and it's like. I don't think they smash it. I think they screw its head in so it can't move it. Then Buzz saw the top off and then just eat the brains out. Fresh brains. Oh, a lot of people do enjoy the taste of brains. Like you buy all kinds of animal brains. It's not a problem to get that stuff from the grocery store. No, you buy brains and tongues and all sorts of things.

But I just brain, much like oysters, is just not an appealing organ to me. It's just it's one of those things that. You want something with a little more firmness and substance to. It. Yeah. I mean, it's like it's it's more messy or it's more texture, I should say, than just like jello. But it doesn't have the firmness of, you know, protein, like organs, like muscles or anything. I don't know. It's just it's not appealing whatsoever.

Kong has the opposite issue, I think, because it is a purely a muscle. And I'm not a fan of tongue either because tongue. No lengua tacos for you. Know, now it has again the texture of the tongue, which is just muscle and blood vessels. It just doesn't that doesn't do anything for me. Your voice just went up like three octaves. I just I don't I don't like it. I just I don't know. No telling, you know. No tongue, no talking. My mom used to like tongue.

She used to make it all the time, and I just never frickin eat it. That may be why you don't like it. There's a. She made. It. The reaction like you were forced to, and you're like, yeah. I was I was never force cheated. But she enjoyed it. And it was it was like, you know, definitely one of the meals as a hearty meal. The big tongue comes out. Her tongue and. You know, it's like. You got to have horseradish, you got to have horseradish cause.

They look like the Rolling Stones logo when it was brought out on the plate. It actually looks just like tenderloin. And you're like, Well, I like tenderloin. I do like tenderloin. But Tenderloin. Here's the difference. The tongue is a muscle like gets used consistent constantly for the life of the animal. The tenderloin never actually ever gets used. It is a muscle that is hooked up to things that don't actually need to be moved. Which is why it's so tender. It's so tender.

It's so good you could eat it with a spoon. It is hard to beat a good tenderloin. There's nothing else as far as I'm concerned. Like I've eaten tenderloin raw straight off of a deer that was shot because it was so good. They're like, No, you were supposed to cook that. You're like. Oh, no, nobody cooks and everybody eats those raw digs. Right. And blood dripping down your beard. Yeah, exactly. Like, yes, you. To a butcher while you. Butcher the deer.

And, you know, there's plenty of other meat that you're going to be cooking. But the Tenderloin, it's just sitting there waiting for you. I would still rather brown the outside and get it to a nice medium rare. Yeah. No, that's ruining it. Although I've never had a venison tenderloin. So you haven't? No, no, no. It's. It's still got a little bit of that deer flavor, but it's very, very similar. I a big bison cut that baby up. I love bison made bison meat at least once a week.

It is delicious ice cream for the bison. How about strange? I found I find to be a little too dry. Do all three get to add a little something? Something but bacon. Get this. Yes. Okay, there you go. Everything is better with bacon. That's the marketing at least. Yeah, I mean, it'll kill you, but. Yeah. So the other thing, I don't know if I talked about this, I talk about my maybe I talk about my full medical thing. Last show we. Were talking about getting the full scan.

I don't know if we had it. Yes. Oh, yeah. The results were pretty boring. It was all stuff. I knew I had high cholesterol. Yeah, no shit. Like I used to see my disease. Like. Like what I eat. That's really low. Yeah. Look, it was shocking. I have high cholesterol. Oh, my God. So my doctors now convince me to try doing the statins again. I don't like that idea, but I'll. I'll. I'll humor him for a few months, try doing the sentence. See, that doesn't eat anything.

But other than that, the other thing was there was one of my arteries in the heart has quite a bit of cholesterol in it which is not good. Yeah. Build up there is. Not good, not a good place for it. So I've been doing some research on what Roto-Rooter activities are available. That was just an area where there in the heart or you can do it right outside. You could do stents if it's in the right place. So yeah, it's outside. It's one of the four arteries going to the heart.

Now, depending where it is. That was the issue with my mom was that they had a couple of blockages and one of them was in a place where they're like, Yeah, unfortunately, we can't get a stent there. So that's why they're still doing the open heart bypass, right? If you can't get a stent. Yeah, yeah. And I I'm not at the point of proactively doing a heart bypass, but do you do. It this week? I was thinking again.

I might be right there, but I am going to go talk to my cardiologist and see what he thinks. What I'm not super happy with is, like you mentioned, is that like I did a stress test like a year ago and they didn't see a goddamn thing to warn me about. They're like, Oh, it looks fine. It's like, okay, well, but when you do the full body count scan, apparently you can see all kinds of things. Oh, yeah, well, it's more than the stress test because they're looking for different things. Yeah, yeah.

I'm like a year, two years ago when, when I had one of the issues that was great because I love the hospital here, especially if you have insurance, you know, it's like, well, you know, we're pretty sure this was just, you know, the gallbladder, which it was just giving me, you know, chest pains and but he's like, you know, it's bad. And however many hours, he's like, if this was a heart issue, this would be very rare for it to not have done something more at this point.

Okay. He's like, but, you know, if you want the the full stress test with the die. They'll do that. And I'm like, Oh, sure, what's that? And then they put you in like an MRI kind of machine. It wasn't it was a similar scanning machine, you know, and they do the heart scan and then they put a dye into your system.

Yeah. Well let you go and do the, the stress test and then they put the dye into your system or I forget how that was, but then you get back in and new in comparison and that's where they can see how the blood flowing and if there's an issue and there's different types of tests that do that. But the oh yeah, you can run and your heart's beating fine. So your find is not necessarily the truth. No, no. Because there are plenty of people that are runners that die heart attacks.

You get your man, right? That was his name. So back in the day in the eighties, the guy that wrote all the books like Running is Great, Running is awesome that he drops dead. Yeah. Yeah. So what happened to your gallbladder? It had to come out like that. So how would the how fast was that surgery or what do you have to. The gallbladder surgery wasn't bad. That would take maybe 2 hours or so. And that's still a lot of. It that would normally have been outpatient.

But I wound up staying overnight because that's what I went into A-fib after. Oh, yeah. The you know, the nurses didn't believe it. They were trying to, like, push me out the door, literally. Oh, and I'm vomiting because I don't do well with most of the anesthesia. Yeah. So I have a tendency to. Oh, so. You were under anesthesia when this. Well yes. Oh, okay. You know, they don't leave you awake when they're putting a run. On for something like that. They would.

I mean maybe you could if you wanted to, but I was vomiting so much and then all of a sudden I felt my heart rhythm. Go off. And like, No, you're fine. And I'm like, no. And you know, the anesthesiologist came in and he's like, Well, let me see you listen to him. Yeah, we're going to get you an EKG. Wow. So and it the whatever medication they get, you mean, you have to realize is that part of it was you don't eat anything for like 24 hours before the surgery. So your. Body's very.

Level and then you're going through that and then the vomiting, all that. But with the with the gallbladder, the guy was kind of amazed that it didn't cause more problems because he said the it was mainly one gallstone, you know, but he said it was the size of a small chicken egg. That's interesting, because that's one of the other things that they found was I have a golf ball sized golf. So there you go. That's going to get you at some point.

Yeah. So again, the doctor's like so any, you know, you feel that the I'm like, yeah, I would have never known about it if I didn't get the scam. And I said, so, you know what? What's, what's our options for getting rid of that? You can you go in there with ultrasound and break it up and shit? And he's like, No, it just cut out the gall. The gall bladder. Like, What do you mean he cut out the guy I want, like I don't useless. I want the gall stone to be removed, not the gall bladder.

There's a difference between those two things. Now they take the whole thing out. Yeah, they take the whole thing out because they're presses. And it's the magic of the, of the machine. What it it's a named after somebody. I forget one of these old, you know, like the Galileo or something machine that you know, and it's, it's like magic. They go in and they make it a little bit of a larger incision. Normally it would just be a very small or two or three little incisions.

But to, you know, to pull the small egg sized thing out, they had to make a larger incision to. Well, you know, they say the bears. The bears. Yeah. I mean. Well, this is why you the stuff is down there in my when my wife needed the gallbladder out, she was in serious pain. I mean, it was, you know, the area where the gallbladder is. She could feel pain. I never I never felt pain. No. What I had was a the heartburn that would just not go away. Interesting. Okay. And it was not fun.

I mean, it wouldn't go away, you know, once it was okay, well, just stay away from fatty foods and that I was able to go a few weeks without an issue. But then once it kicked itself back in, I mean, I had heartburn for days, if not a couple of weeks, where it just wouldn't go away before they could get the thing out. And they were even taken. Everything out. The heartburn pills or whatever. Yep. No bueno, man. It was not fun.

Once it finally decides it wants to come out, you want to get it out of it. Okay, so do you think it'd be rude or I should just do proactively? I mean, if you have a medical device, right? This is not medical advice. The doctor said, as if it's not bothering you, then you're fine until it starts bothering you. But also at that size, there's no risk of it's like, you know, getting jammed up anywhere, right? It's not coming out. Not coming out. It's just going to be in there. Right.

So all all you're doing is is taking a lot of that volume up that you normally would have. Violence is just taken out by the gallstones. Now, the thing is if that moves to block that dot. Yeah and it starts producing the bile that that's kind of like having what they do now, the infected tooth where it's like we got a problem. We want to, we want to expand but we can't. Mm mm. Hence pain. Yeah. So what the hell is it? Located in nowhere to look for that pain. The gallbladder is lower.

Right side. I think there's a left side. It's on. Your heart's in the left. Do I have a heart? If you have one that's on the left. I'll be. Old. I believe. I think it was lower right side, but I'm on the. Front of their. Back. You could look for it. Could move. I mean, that's where the pain is coming from to a lot of it. The first thing people notice is like back pain. Interesting. Okay, well, I'll keep an eye and maybe I'll do a proactive removal thing.

I mean, if all. Goes well as an outpatient thing, you go in, it's all done robotically. I think it's the Da Vinci machine they use. Okay. And they go in, they pull it out, and this. Draws a big picture. And you. And I swear that even with that size we have, it should it should you should get a little piece of artwork when you're done. This. But so I spent the night in the hospital one night, and once I got home, I think I took one round of Vicodin. Otherwise it was just on to Tylenol.

I mean, there was no pain. I mean, it was the day after every now and then there was a little, you know, cringe worthy pain, just a little innocence. Here. You're you're after it was removed. You didn't have the. The heartburn on. Heartburn. Yeah. Which was like, I don't care about the pain now. I because it's basically it's just producing it in the liver and directly sticking it into your stomach instead of going through the gallbladder.

Yeah, it takes a while for your system, kind of adjust, you know, with what you eat and all that. But after a while, it's again, no big deal. Yeah. Oh, good, good to know we do that. Give medical advice. I'll be getting a of medical advice next month. That'll be fine you know. Yeah I've, I've had one of those once. Yeah I did, I had one a few years ago and this was just a case of the dentist who we really liked unfortunately died.

So right before COVID, he found out he had lung cancer and it was he was in his early sixties and within like weeks was dead. So it was a very aggressive kind of lung cancer. And he was a guy that ran and was active. So it's like, well, that's that's weird. He didn't smoke. But you have to, you know. QUESTION When as a dentist, what kind of stuff you've inhaled over the years with. This is plenty of information about it that get to the point.

So it's like they hadn't been to the devil since right before COVID. And this is why when you had a little bit of a cavity like that too far and that's the end result, although I found a nice female dentist just a mile away and so even I could drive out there. It doesn't matter. Nice. It's a nice enclosed. Probably walk there. Yes. And the practice is also covered by the wife's new insurance, which will be kicking in on the first. So you're waiting until September to do it? Yeah, of course.

You know, that was the first question that they asked when I called was like, oh, do you have insurance? She's like, I will in a month. Uh huh. Well, the root canals, let's see, last time for me was probably a decade ago, maybe more, probably more than a decade. I'm trying to remember. I want to say a root canal was 500 bucks. No, no. It's 4000 with the crown. That's mostly the crown. It's 2000 root canal. 2000 crown, I think. Well, that's a crazy ass price for a dentist.

You got to find something cheaper. Well, this it'll be under the insurance. So that's the also. Well, that's that's the insurance price. The normal price should be closer to like a quarter of that. So the, the this was the going rate as of late. It also depends on the tooth because there are some that have like one and to. The smaller and yeah it's it's a molar. Yeah. So yeah it was it was 500 bucks for right now it was 300 bucks for a tooth removal and it was a 1200 dollars for the crown.

Yeah. This, the tooth removal was 400 would be if you just. Pulled it out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because what happened with me is they did a root canal and in the process of doing the root canal, the tooth cracked and it became a tooth removal. Oh, well, that's no. Well it's, I mean, yeah, it's definitely no fun, but it was one of those things where I kind of got, like you said, but didn't have to pay for the root canal. To like just pull them all out, man.

I mean, you know, if you if you botch up the root canal, it's not my problem. It's dentist fault. So they can pay for that. Like, I could just give me some fake teeth. Yeah, those are expensive. Now, since that tooth was pulled out, looked into like, okay, what are my actions? You could do a bridge, which is basically just a crown under two adjoining teeth with a fake tooth in the middle, right? Hence bridge. Or you could. Or you could do an implant. I always wondered about that.

Why they called it a bridge then I'm like. Oh, okay. So yeah. It's bridging the other two teeth. Exactly. So you're damaging to healthy teeth next to the empty hole so that you can put a bridge on there. Doesn't sound like a great idea to me. And then the implant was basically 2000 bucks to stick a little metal pin into your and let it heal for six months. Yes. And then another 2000 bucks for the fake tooth. I remember that it went up.

So that Buddy Ambrose had to have done on his front tooth because he. Yeah, that was it was months like you said where they put the post in and then they had to heal with this accident. It was a, it was a drunken college accident. Okay. We went further back than them. Yeah, well but he just had the, the permanent thing done last year so. Oh, oh, okay. So this was something where they finally needed to do that, but yeah. That Oh yeah.

Well we'll throw the little thing in, we'll have a post, it's oh I, I don't want to think about it. Just do it. Don't tell me what you're doing. Yeah, it's, I mean people have all kinds of titanium things for, you know, wrists and kneecaps and and I guess not kneecaps, but knee, knee ball joints and all kinds things. So it's, it's not horribly different. It's just it takes a while for your bone to grow around the metal enough to. For it to be solid. To be in there and not be loose. Yeah.

And you remember him now if anybody is following along at home, we started with how about that raid on Trump's house? That's one continuous conversation from that without any veering of any point. Yeah, no, I think that's the thing about this podcast. Like I said, this is the we are the. Seinfeld. Of the Seinfeld podcast because we literally have a podcast about nothing and we just kind of stumble through these loosely very connected topics. That's why it's hard to do chapters.

This is like really a big chapter. That's all. It is. The chapters are basically just going to be the name of the person talking. Yeah, it's like blather, blather, blather, jean blather. Darren Blather, blather, more blather. So speaking of blather, I've kind of put a poll up up on nudging the social to see how many people would be interested in getting a free beta account. And my soon to be released prepping website. Ooh, I don't know if you saw that poll or not.

I did not, Sir Jean, perhaps I know your outlook. If you go to the social and you click on any of my posts, click on my actual icon on my face, the pen click I things they're like on my face the pin link is the poll which is still open and I'm going to keep it running for another few days to give me a better idea of how many people are interested. And of course, you know, they're the jokesters among us.

Like my other podcast co-host, Ben said he thought it would be hilarious if you put the no answer because the two the two choices you have, are you looking at it right now by chance or hell. Yeah, sign me up and no way. I'm Polish and I hate you. Yeah. Those are the two options that you have. Well, to be fair, I am part polish, so I could go. No way. And I. Plenty of people have. You're like, damn, there's a lot of Polish people. Associates out here. Exactly. Hell yeah. Explain a lot of things.

The uh huh. But I thought that would be a fair way to do the poll. Right. That's. I just give people the two options that are the most likely ones for them. And so there were some questions about like, well, what do you mean? What do you mean free? What does this entail? What for me? Yes. So I'm going to clarify this very wisely. This be like a for. Yeah, what. This is to preppers. What what is this something else. This is to preppers. Well a prepper website is to preppers that does not that.

Does not describe. Something evil. But that's that's correct. So here's the basic idea is I I've got products coming in the prepper space right, from Russia, from China. So you're you're working with them. Cheaper to manufacture than Russia. Yes. But is the quality where we need it to be? The quality is exactly where we need it to be. And so this first batch of products I've already spent the money on, I've ordered three, and they're going to be delivered hopefully the next few weeks.

And they will be up on Amazon so that the products are all going to be available on Amazon. However, this is where this question comes in. What is the brand name that you will have these under an Amazon. That will be released once the first product this year? We're not releasing the brand quite yet, although if you're a fan of this show, you probably will like the brand. That's the hint I'm going to give. Is it Russian apologist? No. Or is it just Unrelenting Corp. or something like that?

It might be. Let's see that you have to cut me in. Do I? Why do you on the trademark for that word? I don't know. I only do the domain. Not the Goodman, though I own the good domain, dammit. So close. Spend some money on that one anyway. Can I put my face on the. That'll sell papers. You know, I hear you're pretty good at making videos showing how to use branding. Oh, true. So I could be the shill like you. Could totally be the shill man.

I just got this brand new product from Russian Apologist Corp. And don't mention that you got it for free, right? No, no. That just flashes on the back of this product. Yeah. I spent my hard earned penny to get this product from exactly. Amazon. And I have to say that this is the finest product I've ever you. Did you did you see that video? I think I sent a link to Nudge Social.

There's a guy that does all kinds of videos, but one of them that he did was hilarious about it was basically every review Amazon and so he does he you know reads in character like you he's playing the guy who is looking at Amazon's product for like a new computer chair or something. And so he he he also the other part, which is the Amazon review that he's reading and how making fun of the fact that all these reviews, first of all, are very, very similar. They're clearly very, very fake.

And the product names themselves are ridiculous because the product names are not actual product names, they're just words, right? So it's like red computer chair, office chair, comfortable, long term sitting read. You know, it's just like that's the product name. I was like, Yup, that's the product name. And then we'll link the video. I'll, I'll stick a link in here because it's worth watching. It is hilarious and it's so true, which is why it's hilarious.

But anyway, long story short, we're going to sell a products on Amazon. However, here's the deal. According to the Amazon rules, you can't sell anything outside of Amazon for cheaper than you have it on Amazon. Like the price has to be the same right? Can't be like, hey, it's 20 bucks on Amazon. But I my site, it's only it's. Only ten bucks. Exactly. So to get around that legitimately, because I am a legitimate businessman, what you can do is have a different price for a private club.

So you're now starting a store prepper club. So so the club will have a monthly fee associated with being a member of the club. And what you get for that monthly fee and incidentally, all the people joining initially are going to be free. So there's no fee but but there will likely be. Yeah, but it's a limited time free.

But as a member of the club, not only will you get cheaper pricing than Amazon, the products that I saw on Amazon if you buy direct but also will have tips and tricks on there like for example, about having items hidden in a trash can or a shredder, right? Life tape will have to be prepared. Tips for people that want to be prepared for having somebody executing a warrant on your house. Right.

We'll have reviews of other prepper products that I don't sell because I've probably bought most of them at this point in my life so I can talk with my conference about them and can demonstrate the pros and cons. So tips and tricks, reviews and cheaper products will be available and if you don't want any of that and you just want to send me money because I don't ask for money on my podcast, that's the way through funnels of money my way as well. That's your best pitch. That's all you got?

No, that's this is not a pitch. This is I'm describing and previewing what this is, because a lot of people are asking. Get us excited about this product. What is it going to do? It's once and when it's released you'll know. But it's the first in a whole line of products of Chinese knockoffs. Is this something that you've created yourself with specifications or are you buying something already being made in China?

The fact this is going to be a whole line of products, including custom products not available anywhere else. The first thing that we're doing is obviously a Chinese existing knockoff. To get this thing up and running. Yeah, because you got there's a plenty of shit to do to, you know, get the, the plan in place for, all the options dial into Amazon and all that crap. So it's not worth trying to take.

Start with a brand new, never existing product first you got to get everything figured out by using something that's cheap and easy. Emergency water and beard comb all it rehydrated water. Yeah, it's hydrated water. Yes. That that's certainly going to be one of the products that will be available eventually. Sir Jeeves Dehydrated H2O. Just add H2O. Yes. Well, but but really, ideally, what you want to add is the filter that we're going to sell that lets you put the H2O, that dehydrated H2O.

And we see those things like the it I'm guessing there's a, you know, a really cool filter in it, but. These are the. Magic straws that you're like, hey. Yes, they don't work dirty. As water. And yeah, you really can't. I didn't think so. But people are buying that. But here's the deal. And I bought some, too, but I was the CEO of a company for a little while that that sold that kind of stuff. And the thing about them is the real question you want to ask yourself is, is it better than nothing?

Well, anything is better than nothing. What it. Is, it actually nothing is not better than nothing. Isn't it, though? So no. Because while this filter doesn't actually filter out viruses or even bacteria, it will filter out amoeba, but it could eat your brain. So there is some benefit to the filters. It's just that the straw filters like you can't piss into a cup and then drink that through the straw and expect to taste nothing but water. Right? You're like, that's fresh spring water, skin.

It tastes nothing like fresh spring water. It's going to taste like warm piss. When you want quality, you want. Whatever this is and I am. I can tell you the filter that will let you filter piss is available and it's about $360. And you could use it once. Yeah, exactly. It's a single use filter for three. It is manufactured to use military specs and available to you for just a fraction of how much the military pay for it. Well, we all look forward to seeing whatever this product is.

Yeah, this one's not going to be a filter, but I will be talking about all kinds of stuff and filters and whatnot. So it's it's going to be a an interesting little, little venture. I think I've been kind of thinking and talking about doing something like this, but never pulling the trigger on it. Well, this means you. Have to be doing some YouTube videos like. Oh, yeah, preps. Exactly. I well, that's a great domain name I should look into. Goddammit. You got that one. There you go, man.

Yeah, that's that might be a good one. Now for the. Game plan, anyway, with. The green screen that you have, you two could be right there with Zelinski and wherever he is. Yeah, we're both in the same place on site. Now, if you can get Zelinski on the commercial with you, that's even better. That would be pretty cool, right? Yeah, we could. We could like, deepfake. That that would be cool. Ooh.

I wonder if I could get a government contract for shipping emergency supplies to Ukraine and making a bunch of money out of it. We'll see. Now that I'm in on that, I want to be in the. Huh? Because, you know, when we ship $1,000,000,000 worth of stuff to Ukraine, it's. I mean, it's really only $100 worth of stuff. Well, yes. But aside from that, it is literally $1,000,000,000 that is being paid to American companies that make products that are then sent to Ukraine. Right.

It's there's also cash payments happening, but those are separate. They're from a different account. But, you know, when it comes to sending. Yeah, maybe maybe I want to get into the sending water to Ukraine business. I'm down. I'm ready. I'm willing. Yeah, we can then appeal to all the other folks out there that, that really want to make sure that Ukraine doesn't run out of water. 71%. Hell, yes, sign me up. 31%. No, am Polish and I hate you. Yep.

Exactly which the healthy amount of Polish people I know. I love the Polish. Never, never would have known that no agenda social has that high percentage of Polish people that hate me. You do have a high percentage of people that do not like your viewpoint to the level of not liking you personally. Which I find funny. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. I don't know why this is otherwise a community that is open to all sorts of crazy theories. Well, I think there are many.

There is that even the way to say it, there are many fewer. There are fewer people that hold that contrarian viewpoint at this point, because I know from talking to them that no gender listenership has gone down by a significant amount as a result of him being a Putin water carrier. And I'm bringing you exactly the truth. What's going on? Correct. Because people want to make it to black and white and they. Don't really want the truth.

What they want is a confirmation of their currently held beliefs true. And if their currently held beliefs do not agree with reality with facts, then they don't want to be exposed to that. And that is as prevalent on the left as it is on the right. The difference is that people the right will just leave. People on the left will try and change the system to match their beliefs. So do you think that's it with the no agenda? Certainly been covering that story.

Is that really that there's people that disagree enough where they will just turn it off? Is that the whole concept, which is mean? Yeah. I mean, there are people that's. Which is why the crazy people on the will only watch MSNBC or the crazy people on the right will only watch FOX. Because if it's anything you don't like, you're like.

Well, I think the crazy people on the right aren't going to watch either because Fox is not really representative of Q. The Q and on folks are going to watch eight and one American news. Yeah, that's true. That they were just like knocked off of dish or direct TV or one of them. Yeah, but they're available online. Which is it? You don't need anything else when people talk about that. It's interesting too, like, Oh, we need to be on direct TV. Why?

Because anybody with an internet connection can get your programing, which to me always been the great equalizer. I mean, we don't have an audience of millions, but when we do the show live, anybody in the world overall that has an Internet connection that's not being blocked by their Nazi, the government is able to listen live. Yeah. So what's the difference? I mean, why do you need to have something broadcast over the radio or on terrestrial television? Mm hmm.

The Internet gives you so much more power, which. I think Alex done perfectly fine on the Internet after he got kicked off of terrestrial stuff. Right. Because what I mean, there's no difference. Anybody that wants to listen to this show can do so. I mean, even if they're driving around in their car, as long as they have cell service, they can listen live to the show. There's no one lawyer, do they, Alex Jones, have? I don't know.

She probably wasn't as hot as Trump's lawyer, but probably pretty crafty. Crappy. Oh, crappy, shitty. Have you not watch any of the trial. No, I don't follow. My own stuff. No, I do. Yeah. A worst lawyer I ever seen. The like. Yeah, like everybody is guilty. Pretty much. Pretty much. He, he managed to send a copy of all the documents collected from Alex Jones. To everybody right. By his own lawyer. Right. He sent that to the opposing counsel. Now, that was.

Very a. A tempting for a mistrial like there's no agenda. The concept of this whole FBI raid thing with mob was like, well, Trump might have set this up. Yeah. I don't think so. But I'm just saying that's being volleyed. About oh, I'm sure. So he did this and then neglected to nullify all that by saying I mean he said, hey, send some stuff in there, ignore that I'm going to send you this other packet.

What he had to legally do is itemize all the things that he sent and say These are being requested to be excluded from evidence due to lawyer client privilege. Didn't bother doing that. And and after ten days of not doing that, that evidence is now public record, which means all of Alex's cell phone records, all of his nude photos, of his wife, all that stuff is now part of the trial record. How damning was the stuff that they sent?

Well, I mean, they're saying that he's guilty of perjury now because he was saying that something didn't happen and they found, you know, text messages of him talking about it. Okay. So mixing goes right back to why would anybody communicate over a text message. Okay. But I mean, what what do you mean? I don't know. I mean, why would the. Voice. You know, I just mean the SMS system. We know is that every phone has it. It's easy to do. That's what people use.

But everything you do on that can be pulled up by your provider. Oh yeah. Which again, I know I'm ultra paranoid because there's nothing illegal about that. And I just. Got a signal. So there's. Really I use that just even more. Hacks that nobody uses I did for you and your wife. It's literally for just you and your wife. Is it. You guys best. Security, whatever. Is. You're always talking about things that require security. No, but I love the idea. That. Nothing that goes there can ever show up.

You know, jokes. You can't make a joke or anything, like, I'm going to blow up the White House. Well, there you go. You said you said this in the text of this day. Yeah. No, do not use this was the same thing with the story of the woman and her daughter who bought the morning after pills to have an abortion after 29 weeks and Facebook gave that they were talking about it on Facebook and it's like, how stupid are you to talk about committing felony crimes?

What makes you think tax wouldn't give the your records over? Because there is no record. There's no record. No, it's encrypted and it's peer to peer. There is no there is no central server. This is direct. Message. You work on peer to peer. So there's no directory. No, there is not. It's all how do you connect with somebody? It's all using like the the same thing torrents use. So you're giving it an IP address. When you connect with somebody. Your getting the IP address may be visible.

Yes, I would assume, because that that's the only connection. But then it is peer to peer between. If you're talking to me, your client talks directly to my client there is no the messages don't go through an intermediary server. They are not logged by anything. Now, if you start a chat with multiple people, I do believe that is there. That has to go to an intermediary just the way it works. But a direct one on one. No, there is no way. How do you spell this thing?

Talks Topics the of the app that you use is Q tax just q which I mean. That's with Q one of those key is got it. Yeah. Okay. Q topic t0x and you know, you can put out the address which is like a hash and you know, there's no there's nothing else that is tying this to an account. There's no email address, there's No, you can reset this. It's all very. Purely. Built. Okay. Got it. So it's it's built by tax China, Carol Cooper. So probably it's open. Source makes total sense.

Open source you can go lower is made by China. You can go look at the code, which is a lot safer than anything that's like yeah, we're closed source but trust us, you we're not sending your stuff anywhere else. Yeah you know. Like Seattle or Telegram or any of those, although I won't give you that. Those are a lot more secure than Facebook Messenger. Yeah. Little tip if you're communicating with somebody code is in Chinese as I see Brooklyn if your. Exactly that's exactly right if.

You're communicating. With to read it. With somebody on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram and you think those are somehow private, that won't be used against you think again I like talks. I rarely connect to talks if I'm not behind a VPN. So, I mean, it all works. Okay. All right. Well, meanwhile, the rest of the world at once, sexual security communication is a signal, but that's fine. Signal is not secure, man. It's totally secure. You believe that? It's absolutely secure.

And in fact, it will wipe all the messages off of every device. And then preset time. Signal is another one that if you do a group chat, it goes a third party server. Mm hmm. Yeah. Not secure. Not secure. Yes. I mean, maybe we have a different idea of what secure is? I was surprised that Wickr is still around, which it's now it's owned by Amazon, I believe bought it. But that's another one that's allegedly a completely secure. They don't take an email, they don't log anything.

It's all peer to peer. Yeah. There's a few different choices out there. I mean, I'm sure we have some security experts out there and if they have an idea of what is the best thing to use, you can hit us up on no agenda. Social or by sending us an email. I think we have emails hooked up on here. I think so don't we. I find that surging dot com. Or you can just go to Daren daydream at random thoughts dot com. That works too. There you go.

Yeah we normally I don't know if we ever set up emails here because we really why would we want to talk? You know, I, I just know that we need to show specific emails. People know our normal emails and we give them out any way. They know how to find. Us. Yeah. Yeah. Ingestion. And my email for that that I just gave is protonmail. So in other words, people have questions about that. I've always thought Proton has a pretty good reputation. Well, they're Ukraine lovers, but other than that is it.

Everybody did know and I think they've kind of backed off of it for a while. They they changed their logo to the Ukrainian flag. But I think that they get enough hate mail from people to change it back now. Well, because you're pretending things are black and white and one side is completely right and one side is completely wrong. And there's you know. There's shades. There's shades of gray in everything. Uh, yeah, there's. There's plenty of that. And then what about telegram?

That's another one people use. I have telegram. That's how I communicate with Voice zero. And that's supposed to be somewhat secure, allegedly, the stuff they censor. That's what I like about Telegram is they censor. Did you go through in the troll room? Says The two messenger services that eventually became signal were created by security researcher Moxie Marlinspike and Roboticist Stuart Anderson. See, I mean, our audience knows this stuff. Yeah, they do. It is amazing. But you want to be.

Sure they have access to Wikipedia, maybe the other. But you want to be way more secure than using Facebook Messenger or SMS. So when you see stuff like your own, it's like I'm being taken down by my text messages. Yeah. So here's, here's what I do. And this will be the type of tips and tricks that you will find on the forthcoming website. Surging profits. There's if there's something that's actually that you don't want to record of,

then don't type it. Yes. And what you can do is then use signal to establish a voice encrypted communication link. Yes. What you can in talks. To you and then have a conversation and then hang up. As being reported in the troll room and on Fox News Salmon Rushdie stabbed. Someone though. Stormed the stage before in New York City. He stabbed. He's been stabbed. Oh, he's been stabbed. Okay. Yeah. By the way, you were saying I thought he stabbed somebody. The jihadists, I guess. Finally got them.

That fatwa. Did they? Is he dead? They're still alive or. They're just saying he's been stabbed. Nothing as far as. Wow, he was in in Larry David's last season of Curb Your Enthusiasm playing himself. Well, that was gutsy. But now see that for a while because he. Was he was giving Larry advice on how to live as somebody that's had a fatwa against them and they cannot not get stabbed. I ran I guess is offered $3 million reward for anybody who kills Rushdie. Where did you run to?

I ran so far away. That's all you. Were. If you run Iran, it's called not Iran. I ran I ran so far away. I mean, I've I've learned everything I know from running. From a nuclear power plant while you're at it. A nuclear. And you said nuclear. Nuclear, nuclear. Exactly. Iran, Iran, Iran. It's not Iran and it's not nuclear. I ran Iraq. This is why my strove I got all of us says you are bad, the Russian apologist. What's that accent was even worse than his actual accent.

I know. I'm working on. It. Oh, my God. Trying to take it to a whole new level. You know, you could probably get a job with CSB being the reader of his podcast. Get rid of Gwyneth. I read like this and read the whole podcast like that. That will be amazing. I technology there. I think people need to listen to this and make sure you use improper grammar. Well, of course, credit. They do not got no good. We don't. No, I. And this is the guy you're sending money to see is me. Really?

I am CSB friend. I am. Behind him. I believe he should continue fighting the good fight and I will keep asking questions. I will not go blindly into the night. We'll just have. Wine. Yeah, I five. But I'm always looking for answers. Why isn't that your your mind? Like, if you were working on one of the conservative talk shows that we have, then you'd have a nickname. It'd be like half blind. Darren I definitely have the eyepatch. Like the. Eyepatch. Yeah, you should totally do that patch thing.

Even if it's not working, you should still do it. It just adds a little to the look. Yeah, and I think that only fooled people for a while was Crenshaw. And then people started realizing that, Oh, this guy is like a World Economic Forum hack. Yeah, well, again, not everybody agrees. And that's the intriguing thing, is that people think if you're labeling yourself as a Republican, you have to believe everything.

The Republicans, I guess it's because if you're a Democrat, you have to go down the party line. But there are some people who have views that kind of differ from that, you know, you don't have to go down the full line, which is it's the scary line is when they all vote alike, it's like that's that's a big.

This is the problem is that the term Republican doesn't mean jack shit anymore it really doesn't because it encompasses both neocons and people that would consider themselves libertarians and people that were just, you know, Southern Democrats, like all these different groups that have different opinions are called Republicans. And that's why I don't call myself a Republican. I think that it's an inaccurate term.

Plenty of things that I've disagreed over the years with the official stance of the Republican Party, although I was a endorsed candidate as a Republican years ago. Dude, did you have the beard then? Did I know I didn't have the beard? You're allowed to have beards as a Republican. Oh, no. I thought that was I didn't know that there's a dress code. There was back then when I ran. Yeah. Not days there isn't now. You can have the beard had it up.

I mean. Yeah, I mean look at, look at Ted Cruz, look at that beard he's got going on. It's a. Manly beard. Mm. You don't want to be woke though. No. Do not want to be woke. So, I don't know, I, I really hope that's what we up with is a good choice in the elections for people to vote for. Because the way things are looking, I think the Democrats have figured out that their best shot is to make sure that Trump runs, because that way they'll get to stay in office for another four years.

I'm not sure about that. I think everything they're doing is is emboldening Trump. Yeah, well, that's my point. I think they're trying to get Trump. To run, and I think he'll win if Trump runs. I don't think he's. Definitely not gonna win. There's no way he's going to win. I would bet you anything that they're. How much? Let's do it, Beth. Let's do it. Let's is steak dinner. Beth okay. A good steak. If if you lose, you have to fly to Austin for the steak. If I lose, I'll fly out to Chicago.

If I. Lose. Oh, well, that would make sense. It's like you can't have the. I mean, we're both a steak dinner out of it no matter what. So that part of it's kind of a not really a win win. Yeah, it's. Both. But there is a financial cost to you that the loser pays for their own airline ticket, right? I mean, I should say that if you, you know, you can send me a first class ticket. And I mean, with all of this new. Where I sent you a ticket. This money that you've got coming in, this new. Business.

Oh, I'm spending money. I got no money coming in. What are you talking about? I get nothing but expenses right now. And then there. It's all that money. Get in China. This is going to be big. I think that the Democrats are so afraid of Trump that this is their Hail Mary. And I think, you know, again, taking out massive voter fraud, which I know is hard to do in an American election.

But taking that out, if this does not turn into something, meaning if the end result is that Trump did something heinous and we can prove it now, or at least. I don't need to prove anything, you just have to create a reasonable doubt. You have to show enough to the American people. If they can't do. That. Then I think the the Trump vote would be way more than anybody could. Imagine. Yeah, no, it's not going to happen. I think they realize that they've they've beat Trump once.

If they want to beat the next guy, it should be also Trump once again. They can't beat DeSantis. Sanders would absolutely win. Plenty of people that would not vote for Trump would vote for DeSantis. There are plenty of people and you know, we all live in bubbles. I think most people I know gender are in the the right side of the spectrum bubble and don't realize that there there's a huge group of people in the middle that don't really like the Democrats, but they hate Trump.

They're the people that voted against Trump in the last election, even though they didn't really like Biden all that much. I think there are some people that are these people. Are they're going. To persecute you. Trump I think some of those people are coming around too. Oh, this is not right. Well, that but remember, every election there are four of brand new voters, people that are 18, 19, 20 and 21 that they get to vote for the last election.

Who do you think, 18, 19, 20 and 21 year olds are most likely to vote for? Not Joe Biden. Not Trump. Not Kamala Harris. Maybe more Kamala and Trump. That's scary. Yeah, I think so because a, she's a woman and we saw this. She had one of those. Oh, sure. I'm like Obama's partner and Biden. Yeah. Biden. That's the one I meant. No, the one that's taller. His wife. Oh, Michelle. Yeah, yeah. Michael is is clearly not a woman. So. So Benjamin Bond so many times. Oh, I'm sure it has.

Yes. Yes. That's we should believe all the debunkers. But there are records. I mean, you can see. Oh, there's also a. Reason for Obama somewhere in there to. Get the birth certificate. I mean, there are photos of Michelle Obama as a child here in, Iraq. I mean, the. Was somebody as a child. Well, that's true. But so no, that doesn't seem to be true. Uh huh. So it just go by where the logic in the evidence goes. You just go by whatever pronouns people tell you.

No, I don't even understand half of these. So the other day there was like, well, you can use she not she like Z and Z on the free or we are like, What the fuck are you talking about? It's he or she. Otherwise, you know, fucktard is going to be my new pronoun for everybody. It's just it settles out. Excuse me. Excuse me. That's not a real pronoun. You just made that up like they. All make their shit up. Z is a real problem. Uh huh. It is. There is a real problem. I'm sure it is, fucktard.

Yeah. That's right. No, fucktard is the best pronoun. It is not gender specific. It works across racial lines, it works across every line, you know, or if asshole is another good pronoun, you know. So it's just like, would you ever say like, hey, yeah. Instead of saying, Hey, you don't have to say he, she or them, like, hey, asshole said. This well, but you don't get to pick what other people's problem pronouns are. You only get to pick your own. So if you want to pick asshole, that's fine.

Or fucktard people can address you as such. But if they don't then I can sue them. But the s if they don't address you as fucktard fucktard then you can sue them fucktard. Right? I mean, this is why I would come up with the bro pronoun. It can be as simple as fucktard. It would have to be something like king fucktard of all fucktard ness. And then you can't like leave any of that. You can't use that. That's really used by your co-host on Grumpy Old Dunce.

That's Bob Roses. I didn't know, huh? That's. Yeah. You got to check out his little face symbol and not gender social. With pronouns can only one person use them. Now, is this like you as unique as snowflakes? Oh, yeah, totally. I mean, you got to you got to get permission to use somebody else's products, but, you know, you don't get to make the decision. They get to make that decision. This whole thing is just to keep people from talking to each other.

Because if you don't talk to anybody, you refer to them. You never have to about what their pronoun is. Yeah. If you don't talk to them, you're correct. There's no worry about that topic whatsoever. It's a make you point. It's the world we're living in, which is why we talk all the time. But only on the Internet. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. So another surging speech this weekend with a man named Ben. Named Ben? I'm guessing so. And that show will change its name.

Or conversely, a new show will pop up with me talking to Ben. And So Speaks Will become once again my solo show. Oh, a new show shall spawn from. Yeah. I mean, it's really, you know, it's annoying. The other guy the show they're on is called Another Guy Speaks. Uh huh uh huh, yeah. I mean, that's I don't know why. Yeah. I mean, it seems like he's just a second fiddle and nobody really cares.

I mean, that's way I was telling you, I was fine with it when we were doing Grumpy Old Ben's, which I was the co-host of and don't seem to get any money off of residuals, but yeah. I market this show. Is there no deal speaks. You. Said with featuring sir Gene and. That yeah I think that's a good way to do it it works yeah it works and I really think like, you know, not like there's any, any money coming in at all, but generally zero was zero was a good number. Yeah, it's, it's it.

What, what happened to our perpetually supportive drinking buddy there? Were you totally. Mistaken? I did. Did he listen to me? Finally? Which I mean, I would highly recommend you, sir. Joshua, the historian, only donate to random thoughts and the rock and roll pre-show. Uh huh. And that way your donation is valued and you are respected for the support you're giving. Yeah, but better than that, save your money until you have a job that everybody, you know.

Priorities. I get it. I understand why everything has dried up now. Like, yeah. You know, you look at the cost of food and gas and that's really all you need to find out. You know. Not a lot disposable income at this point. Hold on. Joe Biden just lowered the price of your gas. What are you complaining about? Oh, hey, if you're listening to the latest random thoughts, I explained once again the Overton Window. That's exactly right. Which is, oh, gas was $2.

Well, we want it to be $4, as the Democrats do get our green energy plan into place. And we know people won't go for that. So what we'll do is we'll make it go up to $6. Right. And we'll bring it back to four. And we will be heralded as the saviors for bringing the price down. And they're trying to play that game. Which oh, they totally doing that. And it's not even a matter of $2 now. It's more like $0.50 now. It is the absolute evil way to go about this.

The Overton Window was something that I wasn't familiar with until Becca talked about it, did a whole book about it, and it's like he's got. A book about it. And know there's a book called The Overton Window that Glenn Beck wrote. Really. Inexpensive. To put a whole book on that one topic. Yeah. And it was fairly entertaining, but it just shows you that how you get a massive, you know, in this case the citizenry of the country to accept something they wouldn't have accepted otherwise.

It is just a sliding scale that goes well, I would have never accepted this, but then it got so bad that getting back to that was, oh, well, that's better. At least even though that was originally you thought of as well. That would be horrible if it got to that point. They actually make it worse and then kind of bring it back. Yeah, well, and that strategy has been used for a long time, way before this book ever came out. Oh, yeah. It's what even.

Politician didn't realize that he wrote the book on that topic. Interestingly, have that book fetish where I think that's where they make a little write up. And I think you're right about that because I figured it'd be it would have been Joseph hours and that would have written the book about the topic that he invented. Hey, people want to read your books. They can go to Amazon as well. They can do that. Oh, I'm going to be starting my next book. Oh, what's this going to be about?

Oh, they're all boring. I mean, honestly, this is the best way to celebrate. I'm the best promoter of my own material, right? Yes. Tell us about this brand new stuff in advance. And they're like, so are you. Now, how many books, copies are you bringing for the folks? I'm like, book jobs. Why would I bring copies of my own book? Like, that's why. If they want to, they can just buy it or something. I wouldn't recommend that. But what's your. Wrote this. Book?

You can buy this book, but I wouldn't write. Oh, I know, I know. But some people are more intrigued to actually go spend money after hearing stuff like that. So it's all like I'm using, you know, next level of psychology. Here, Jedi Mind. Trick. That's right. So yeah, so all of my books that are in Amazon are around the topic of business management. And this next one is no exception. I'm going to be covering a slightly different aspect.

It's it's focus is really on the mentality of the CEO and the the types of thinking that the CEO should need to overcome. That doesn't make them be, you know, doesn't influence their decisions in a negative way. I thought the most interesting thing. About your one stop treating people like they're human. Chapter two Robots are the way to go. Yeah, I know. Stuff like that. It's practical advice. I was most intrigued of due to the photo that's on the jacket. Which was you shirtless on a horse?

Yeah. You like that? I mean, that was an amazing photo. Very. Takes a while to get that it was done by professional. Yes. I had somebody fly out here from Colorado that's a professional photographer to do that. We're going to say it took a while to find a horse could take that kind of weight. Well, okay. So technically, it wasn't really a horse. Oh, yeah, yeah, it was actually a donkey. But the CGI involved in turning it into a horse did a great job. Deepfake Deepfake book deepfake.

But a little bit more about. Was that did you actually write this book or was this an A.I. that just wrote the whole book? Oh, no, no. I write all my books. You've fed your brain into an AI, and. I'm a pretty good writer. Yeah, I've never read any. You're saying sometimes they let me write all the way around the courtyard? Well. A little bit. Something people can look forward to. All sorts of products coming out. Yeah, lots of stuff.

Well, this is, you know, I mean, this is what happens when you don't have a job anymore. You have to come up with things to do. This is what happens when podcasting doesn't pay. Well, I'm hoping they'll pay too low. It's questionable whether there's any chance of that. No, but we will we will find out. We'll see if my once the podcast is rebranded off of Sergey and speaks to the new show, which I don't approve, the title of.

This is the new 30. Six. Didn't get the new surgeon seats exactly with special guest right. Now featuring some other guy. Yeah, actually, that would be a good show. Some other guy being in the title. That would be great. Yeah, that's really good. And like, yeah, so far, like none of the domain names because that's how you pick a name or shows you do domain searches, see if anyone else has it already. You're not so far, none of them have been particularly impressive to me.

I have started using the search add podcast index for the podcast and then when going to the domain is our domains now. Oh yeah. Okay. Well then this is a difference between you and me and we've talked about this is I don't think there are many domains. I think there's only the dot com domains. Nothing else exists. I would you happen to think there are other domains other than that com. Like show so unlike let's do that show if you want to see the show go to unrelenting that show.

Or you could go to unrelenting podcast dot com and then support the show as well. Which easier to remember. People let us. Know. Well, what are you listening to? Are you listening to a podcast or a show? A show? I listen to podcasts. It's a show. Everything's a show. All right. Although CSB had a point, which is why people should go W WW dot unrelenting that show because then it's like. Oh, my. God. Otherwise people just hear Dot's show and they're like, I know what the fuck that is.

Their brain, it's. A stupid domain name. And then it's it. That's why you're not getting any money. No, it's not. It's because people aren't typing in. Somebody get hungry. Led tech dot com is make. Yeah thanks yeah yeah there's tons of people making money and unrelenting that com. That's why the demand was so damn expensive to buy them it's foiled again. Or is. It's just. Crazy squalid most. Uh huh. Uh huh.

Hey. Well, you can follow our adventures at that show, or you can come back live next week and listen. Although, I don't know, we still do in a9am Now that you're not going to be working, you don't have to do the first thing in the morning. Joe. I mean, I don't see a reason to move time unless we get ticked from that slot by somebody. You're in charge of scheduling. I don't. Know. So next week, 9 a.m., again and we'll go from there.

So I have to just figure out how I'm going to do this when I'm in Mexico. So when are you going to Mexico? Monday. Ooh, maybe. Maybe you're. So you're here exiting the country quickly and without provocation. I if I can get away, I may need to be here for a little while longer. But the plan is to go to Mexico for a few weeks, maybe two or three, and then get some work done down there. Uh, get my, my prepping tested and then. Find a good internet connection.

Finally get internet connection. That's going to be a priority. I'm hoping that will not be that hard to do. Well, it's not like it's a third world country or anything. It's second order country. Yeah, well, technically it's not, actually. Yeah, it's probably in the first world. You're right. Let's not make Mexico Second World. We do not want to anger. The Mexicans now. It's not like Ukraine or something. No, not at all. They way better food in Mexico. I would disagree with you on that.

See, I like Mexican food. I like Ukrainian food. Let's have a food off. Well, you know where you live. It probably is easier to find Ukrainian food than Mexican. So there's like Mexican joints all over the place I can like walk to for. The Taco Bell doesn't. Count. No, it's not including Taco Bell. You know. There's little three or four family owned, not even that chains or anything like that. We're just in the area where. I don't know.

I don't know if Mexicans would go that far north and deal with that one. Third. I don't know why, but I wouldn't. I mean, I was born here, so there's that. There's that you planted roots. Where can I find Ukrainian food? In the Chicago suburbs. I need to know. That would be. I can't remember the name of the street, but if you go to Wrigleyville and then. No, I'm not going to the north side. Fuck that. It's the north side. That's where it's at.

Yeah. Fuck that. I'm not going to the north side of Chicago. That's where the train through that go there. I've literally had Ukrainian food there also I would assume. But go there. Have more places with Polish food. There's tons. Yeah, but I'm not going into Chicago and I'm not going north of Chicago. And yet you keep insisting and calling yourself in Chicago. No, it's just outside of Chicago. So, yeah, outside of Chicago you should just say somewhere in Illinois.

That's more accurate. Yes. Yeah. I'm just as close to I mean, I'm in Illinois, probably. Closer to Wisconsin than you are to anybody. Else. No, no, that's not true. Wisconsin, we're quite. A bit closer to Iowa than anything else. No, no. Indiana geography. That's worse. That's even worse. I mean, I'm almost walking distance to Indiana. I mean. Oh, my God. So you're like next to Gary. Indiana, as a free state, the not dairy. Free state, because nobody wants to be there. That's why it's free.

Gary's horrible. The rest of it to have is really nice. Tune in next week and find out what kind of cardiac you can get from Gene's prepping business. Candy Act is not cheap. Well, they expect to pay. You got anything else. Or gourmet food? Is this. How we have these shows. Or are we done? I didn't even realize we were done, but. Okay. Hey, I mean, we're at 1120. I know this is your right. This is your last day of work. And it is my last day of work. You seem like you're working a lot, though.

It seems like you're around new mode. That's what everybody says. But that's maybe why you're not going to have a job anymore. B, maybe this. Is why you're self-employed. Exactly. But, hey. That's why people listen to the show. Well, I think I think people listen to this show because they enjoy the sound of our voices. Because we bring them topics in ways nobody else dare cover. And that's absolutely correct.

And thank you to the people that show up live, including blitzed I have no name Deji Guru. See you literally going to read everybody's mothers. Yeah, net net. They're all in the troll room. You've gone from reading people that sending money to reading people that bothered listening life. And nobody said big money. I don't know. I don't know what to do. Don't send money, send water, tents and your food. Water with gold flakes inside of it, maybe. Huh? Or just gold, slugger?

Yeah, it is. Yeah. Those fire. At least then the other. Two pay all go away. Yeah. Is here is your tooth and pain and you're waiting until September. It is. Let's not really in pain now. I mean the penicillin I think and whatever they put topically on it before they put the temporary filling down there seems to be doing the trick. So wait, so they did do the root canal. Are you waiting for. The root canal will be on the seventh.

They just put down a medicated some kind of medication on top of the tooth and then with the filling or it's mixed into the filling or however they do it. To. Get rid of the to get rid of the infection. Yeah. So that should at least take care of and then there's a temporary covering on there. So it's not, you know, food and stuff won't be getting into the tooth. So they prep the tooth with a right and and put a filling in but they haven't taken out the roots now. Correct.

They're going to drill out the filling all in. The the you. Exactly. I mean, I think this filling that they put out there, they're like, don't even floss there because I think that could pop up. Yeah, I was. Just done by hand to which I like. There was a young female dentist. The woman's giving her this stuff and with some little device do the guy don't need the fancy device just the taste of they get slaps it out of the tooth.

Which is a little little piece of leather sitting around tooth probably yeah that was the well led will kill the bacteria well. This is good all silver. Yeah. But it was that smell that I remembered from going to the dentist as a. Smell. The when they were mixing this up and I don't see they must not use it a lot because the assistant was like, oh, I haven't done this in a while. Yeah but it let in your teeth.

Yeah. Yeah. Then they just shove that crap in your mouth and say, hey, go back when you have insurance. That's a that's an interesting approach. Well, insurance only going to cover a thousand that right. Well, that's the maximum out of pocket, which means at that, I should be like, hey, I got, I got a few months to, to go crazy on dental work. Hold that. How much will the insurance cover? Because most insurance has a limit on dental coverage at about a thousand bucks, maybe 1500.

No, this is the insurance. Unlimited dental insurance. I mean, that's. Huh. Well, no way. Working for the government. Dude, there's a match, so it's just like. I might need to marry somebody that works for the government just to do that. It's like a that's. An as unheard of dental insurance. It is very much like the medical insurance where you have a maximum out-of-pocket for that period. So that's crazy. Yeah, once you have the.

Insurance is cheap, but what it does cover is up to like a thousand or maybe 50 bucks a year. Anything over that is you're out of pocket. You're saying yours is the other way around? Yes, they are. You pay the first thousand bucks. Well, no, it's it's still will cover part of that. It covers like 80%. And then if you get over a certain amount, it's the. Maximum it's 100% coverage. Right. But without a cap, correct. You better check into that. But holy shit.

If that's true, that was insane. I was like, this is awesome. Yeah, I'd love. To get your for miles theory done. You like to go as well? It's a lot about gold fillings. And I did that years ago. I did that like, I don't know, 15 or 16 years ago. I just had crowns put on all my teeth. You're like, Well, that's that's like you can't that. You don't have to worry about it because your crown can't get a fucking cavity. Right? It's like, dude, you. Feels your teeth in.

It's what you need in the medical insurance too. It's also with the same company, which is Blue Cross. Here in Illinois. Yeah. And now though it was yearly, it had been going and up and up where a doctor says it was a $45 co-pay. Mm hmm. That's nice. Yeah, it's zero co-pay for doctor. Yeah. Fuck the government, man. I'm telling you. This is the real problem with this country. Is government insurance too good?

I would agree, but I'm like, this is why I like, why haven't we been on this boat the whole time, huh? Exactly. You like screw finding a nice Ukrainian refugee and he works in the government? Yeah. It's like you work in the post office. Would you like to get married? Yeah. It is the world we live in. That is pretty funny. That was a good outro. It was a great ending. Uh huh. Thanks, trolls. Coming up next on the no agenda stream will be Adam Curry. That Adam guys getting online again and then.

That Dave Jones guy podcasting 2.0 what the board meeting will be covering today we don't know. Really male topics. Well there's always a topic I mean I don't know what they are or who they're going to be interviewing. Do I need to introduce the idea of adding an element into the podcasting 2.0 that redirects you to a prepping story? Oh, well, there's a great idea. I think a lot of people would be up for that.

This right from your podcast app, just click the little button and it just takes you right to the store all built in. Well, that's kind of what they're trying to do. I mean, that's the other beauty of things like transcripts and chapters is that you can add the you are else to them. Yeah. So there's, there are ways to redirect, you know, from podcast and all that. Mm hmm. People are doing hashtag or exclamation point prep in the troll rooms. Know if you can get. It. Out.

All you have to do is pay. Voice zero like a buck and he'll go in and add that. So if somebody does that prep. Girma Yeah, well then you can just say, well, hey, you need to prep, go to searching prep jd.com. Mm hmm. And it's actually better than that now that we're not live anywhere. I tell you the name of the store site. Do you want me to turn off the stream? Oh, I thought Dearie had turned off stream. No, I was just saying back to the trolls, I mean. Oh, okay.

Bye, trolls. We'll talk to you later. We're going to talk in private now. We're going to we I'm going to get to hear all the. Things that's right. I can't hear oh, all the trolls say. Oh, sorry, go fuck yourself. Uh huh, uh huh. What did you have for breakfast?
