You're you're the worst. You're. You. Hello, and welcome to episode number 125 of Unrelenting Breaking. I am Darren O'Neal. He is dean of truly.

The Great Appliance Meltdown

Breaking news appliance emergency. The the teakettle not get warm fast enough or I was guessing something spewing water. What did we have on the ground? No. Well, you remember how last episode we talked about your dryer? Yes. The lack bastard. The lack of drying.

Smart Dryers Plotting Their Revenge

Well, apparently my dryer was listening to that episode. Well, they they're on Wi-Fi now, so they talked to each other. Well, it isn't like mine do. They're like, wait, hey. They're talking back to the HQ, listening to podcasts and say, hey, hold up. They didn't work in for 13 years without breaking. That's not right. They noticed we were were like, oh, our Wi-Fi has a clean feed connection at the same time of year. So we could talk the dryers.

Right now we're discussing what to do while piggybacking on our clean feed connection. Exactly. That's exactly it. So anyway, I think I got it going. It's fine, but yeah, I'm there to sing the, It worked. It did. You know, you could turn it on and get it going, but the clothes didn't feel like they were super dry, so the sensor must not be working right now. Were they getting warm? I mean, was there warm air? Oh, yeah. Through. There's definitely warm air.

But, But it was I think what was happening was it was turning off prematurely before the clothes were as dry as they're supposed to be. Right. The sensor gets covered up in gunk for some reason. The sensor gets covered up in lint. Yeah. So I went, didn't get my vacuum cleaner, vacuumed all that out. So the sensor is nice and open now, did you find the two little metal air bars that are the, moisture sensor that you have to wipe off with, like isopropyl alcohol or whatever?

You got to, I did not know. That's probably my next step. Does that would be it? Because that was the first thing I did the podcast to come and do instead of tinkering with it longer. Well, that was the first thing I did, which was I took the compressed air, as I mentioned the last time, and that was beautiful because then compressed air flew everywhere. And here's the thing exactly. I used the vacuum cleaner. See, I there was no way to fit that into the little slot.

I mean, I guess I need to get some kind of a, attachment for it. Yeah, yeah. Because the beautiful thing is, when you are standing right in front of my dryer, if you turn around, you are just as close to, like, five systems that are sitting on a, Oh. Yeah. Well, that's perfect because they they like eating, the sauce and things. Yeah. Perfect. Nothing to worry about at all. Computer. Oh, your air will be super clean in no time. Yeah, well that's it. It'll all just suck it right on in.

Need to put an air filter down in the, that little area. Nice idea. Yeah, nice Hepa filter. And I find that the ones with ionizer work a lot better. Remember the old ones in the olden days that were nothing but ionizer? Oh, yeah, I have those. Loved the one. They were great. You take the thing out. It's got, like, metal blades. Right? Wash them off. All the gunk is gone. They're stainless. You stick them back in. Keeps working.

Then after that, they're like, oh, wait, this is putting too much ozone into the air. It's going to kill you. Well, I don't know if it was that or they just simply realized, Holy shit, people never have to buy a filter. That's no good, right? This is it. Will you buy? Although it didn't last forever. I'll give it that. It eventually broke down when you did that. Yeah, the Hepa one. It worked well. It was working. It did. And the Hepa ones. You right.

Every six months to a year, depending on how bad it is in your particular location of the world and house, you need to replace those. Otherwise they stop working. Yeah, that's totally right. You can tell because you can put your hand like above it illness. Well, what doesn't seem like there's hardly any air coming out anymore. They get all filled up with gunk. Yeah. And you just think if you didn't have them what's going into your lungs I don't know, I'm always curious. Does it really.

Oh yeah. Make that much of it. Do you think it does. Have you not gone to the bodies exhibit. No. When you know what it is right. No, I mean, it's oh, you like, walk through and I'm sure some people have seen. So there's this German. I don't know what he is. I guess he's an artist that develops a process, of modern mummification. Essentially. It's, it's running urethane through dead bodies, blood vessels. Oh, to plasticizer.

Effectively, creating a, a hard body tissue because, you know, you got veins and capillaries and everything running through there. without the need for a supportive structure like bones or muscles. And so in this bodies exhibit, there are bodies of people that have, either volunteer or actually, I think a lot of people have paid to be in it after the dead to where he does things to make it very visible and you should look up bodies exhibit and you'll see some photos.

It is the easiest way to get somebody to pay after they're dead. well, it's one way, and they're they're effectively a mummy,

The Bodies Exhibit: More Than Just Skin Deep

you know, they're preserved for eternity, as an art exhibit. Oh, and, so you've got, like, bodies with no skin, but all the muscles and stuff are visible. You've got bodies where the muscles are all peeled back and you just have the, the blood network visible. it's all very interesting. It is all fun and games until the neck show up. I'm guarantee you they love that shit. They're going once a week, like we like. It's like it's, for.

Yeah, it's been around for probably a good 20, 30 years that I remember. But I've gone to it a couple of times. It was very, very interesting. I think they're probably squeamish. People would get the heebie jeebies, from essentially looking around dead people in various forms of dissection. Right? Yeah. Well, you want to avoid the fact that by admitting that this is what's going on inside yourself, your mortality is a real thing, and you are not going to live forever.

Well, and a couple things there. And, I mean, I don't know how, you know, religious people would react it, but for me, it was certainly a lot more of a yeah, we're machine kind of moment, because it's pretty obvious when you take apart the human body. it is very, it is very much a machine, the well built machine, a well designed. Not at all, not whatsoever. Most machines built by humans, way superior to what the body is. Not all depends on what it can do and can't do. Yeah, yeah. That's true.

have you have you seen the new robots? Some of them. Yeah. They can turn their bodies 360 degrees. That's pretty frickin useful. But if you need somebody to make your breakfast and you, like, vacuum the floor at the same time, have you seen the Terminator or Terminator two or Terminator three? Have we not learned anything from fiction? It's it's superior action. Maybe. Could be. Anyway, and Musk's got his own robot now, too. Well, he's got to, because the cars aren't doing very well.

Now that Trump's like, I'm going to screw with all you electric car guys and take away the electric thing. I'm going to take away the mandate. I love your product. But no, I am not. I don't want people to have to buy them. well, that that's hyperbole because, you don't get any kind of rebate buying a Tesla anyway, because they were one of the first companies, the first company to really get volume of electric cars. They ran into their cap limits. And those rebates long time ago.

So that does nothing to Tesla. It does something to GM and Ford. He wants to keep the gas powered cars around a lot longer. I know, but my point is that talking about the electric car Musk is going to be hurt by, the removal of rebates. Now, if he's going to, in fact, be better off because the competition still has rebates. Tesla doesn't didn't know. I mean, I wasn't even talking about the rebate portion of it. Just giving people that's the only thing the government can do.

That's the government's only involvement with it. Well, that's not true because they are trying to make it illegal to even sell gas powered cars. Well, that's California yet I don't think they're doing that federally. There is a federal, but I don't think it's ever going to be enacted. There's a lot of these things that go through and they're like, well, we can do this together now. I don't know if that's ever going to be, like a lot of these things, they're just not enforceable.

But that's why politicians running, you have to understand the world when presidents go out there. You know, I wouldn't want to campaign to be president and say, I'm going to do this, this and this. It's like a lot of the stuff they say they really don't have control over. That's absolutely the case. That was the case with Trump last time. It's like, I'm just going to tell you the things that you want to hear.

There's there are plenty of things that were good about Trump, but most of the things that were good were the result of inaction rather than action. Yeah, but business do business. Yeah. Not was a crats over act and over fucked things up. So now it's very interesting to me. That's not a coincidence that Kamala Harris is spewing out a lot of Trump's policies, including stealing the no taxes on tips. I think that's hilarious.

It also tells you that once again, that, Trump is not a far right winger. Trump is very much a moderate. You would think that would be quite that's a moderate position, because why would you single out a single group of workers to provide them a benefit no one else gets? That's kind of socialist. It's quite interesting when you look at, exactly how that all went down.

As people point out, Kamala Harris, where normally a vice president doesn't do a whole lot, including Joe Biden when he had the the gig, including, Mike pence didn't really do a whole lot. But Kamala Harris also just withhold money from Ukraine. Well, Kamala Harris is the one vice president that I can remember in our lifetime. How many besides her? When was the last one? I guess would be the better question that had a 5050 Senate that when it came down to a tie, they had to be the tie breaker.

It's been a while. Yeah, it has definitely been a while, I agree. so by the way, you're, you know, you're you could get in trouble for mispronouncing her name. Kamala chameleon. yeah. It's Kamala. Kamala? Yeah. We just got into some kind of cancer. Marla is Indian. Kamala is black. Apparently. Is that why they're making the change? There's a there's a clip of one of the morning shows where they're at. No, it was a CNN show where they're admonishing the CNN host for mispronouncing her name.

Interesting. And it's literally that. I mean, it's just where do you accentuate in the name and and Kamala, I believe, anyway, could be wrong, but I believe is the correct Indian pronunciation of her name, which it's an Indian name. Well, how about here? Did I get it right here? Tyler. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Look, a million times. Come on. No, you come and go. So it would be worth it. Say, if you don't have a brain, you don't have a brain. Mama. Like a million.

Yo, man, I hope I got that right there then. I mean, wow, that was an amazing clip from the 80s that you found, right? That's right. yeah. There's it's perfect. The only thing it's missing is a little cowbell. We do need. We need to add some cowbell. Cowbell? We'll get the Bristol cowbell. We get to go. And it's like, this is the perfect 1980s song. Yes, I think so. That's that. That says that guy's voice is terrible. Yeah.

No. Androgynous. Yeah. So I had to put a lot of reverb in there and a little bit of I sala reverb, but it's still missing cowbell. That would fix it. Yeah, the cowbell would be perfect. And then I realized that. George I'm sorry, boy George, but it had some vocal issues as well. And he can barely sing now too, so it could be just an, homage to him that I. Well, he's been smoking a lot of fat cigars and other things before Boy George, I'm sure. the guy seems like a nice guy.

Don't often seem like a nice. He always seemed like a nice guy. I mean, that's the thing, is, all these, like, gay singers from the 80s that were ambiguously gay, you know, some of them got married and you're like, oh, sure. Not. Not to people of the same sex even, and have kids. But, no, I think I think the, the music because it didn't have a push down your throat because why are you homophobic? The gender behind it. That was back in the day when like, oh, you can make music.

You just can't make gay music, right? You know, or you can make a gay music, but it's not going to be on a radio. So a lot of these songs were very, like nobody knew that, what's his face? I got to have faith. Gay George Michael from when Michael was make it was singing songs about boys, not girls. you know, people just, like, loved his music and how even when Melissa Etheridge came out, nobody knew for a while. Well, I mean, that was everybody knew. Well, like people in the know. Really?

No, I mean, not even people in the know it. Just look at her. Just see that that seems like making judgments based upon appearance. and when people decide to appear in a way that is different, I think that's appropriate. And then I noticed that your group, it's ma'am, it's ma'am, I tell you, your graphic, interpretation of what is sir Gene total just out that you've you've got gray hair in the beard. It did I clearly grok is using some old photos. They're like, wait, we need to.

But I do own that t shirt. That color t shirt I literally have. So I'm like, Interesting. Like, I know it's, And I did have that plant years ago. I don't anymore. Well, what happened to it? You didn't take care of it, man. No, it got infested with bugs. Well, that's no good. Yeah, I had to get my spider population rekindled to keep the bugs down. You gotta. You gotta keep, like, 8000 spiders crawling around the house. I've got more than that. Do you have, like, them tags?

You know? Exactly. And you're like, oh, look. Yeah, they're microchipped. They're all microchipped. These must be pretty big. Spiders are really small microchips, I know. Right. Exactly. yeah. Spiders are cool. I like spiders. I do not ever kill spiders. sometimes I have to take down their slave webs. But spiders are very beneficial as they control the indoor bug population. But what if you don't have any indoor bugs? If you only have spiders?

Well, that's impossible, because, spiders will die without food, right? So if you have nothing for them to eat. But you still have spiders, guess what? You have things for them to eat. We got other things. Got to look for the other things. The spiders are not sneaking into your fridge and looking around to see what's edible. Are you sure? I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah. They only eat things that are alive. The dead stuff. The more you learn on the unrelenting show.

I do want to say it was a very strange week, but we actually got plenty of support for the show. what's up with that? I don't know, it's worrisome. Let's repeat it. Like, why did this happen? What did we do? Right. Everybody must have loved the whole concept of the, wife curling. That was a damn good episode. So maybe the concept of, tossing your wife across a bed with silk sheets in a silk negligee to see how far off the bed she could fly. That's what our audience was like.

Yeah, yeah, we, I do that exact right. These guys have a great idea, man. It'll be like a real match. You'd be like, we're getting all romantic, and then I'll be like, woo, throw her right across. This show does not provide romance advice. Any advice misconstrued advice is not the fault of the show. No we do not. But I think we can do the the donation side because I think we have to. This may take a while. Let's do it again. I'm going to start from the, the other end.

Normally, you know, we're like, let's start at the top, but let's start at the bottom. Today with our buddy CSB, who came in with 3333 Satoshis and he says, don't mess with Texas

Old-School Ionizers vs. Modern Air Filters

and listen to a podcast by Texans for Texans just to good Ole boys.com. Have you heard of that tune? sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out. Like just two good old boys.com. That's what CSB wants you to listen to this week. And then, Scott just came in twice with 4567 Satoshis. And he's being completely whitewashed that Kamala basically slept her way to the top and has no political chops. Explain why she won't want to debate explains why she won't want to debate.

Well, she's going to have to debate at least one. Although the fact that I hear she's a master at it while she says so, she says so. but she can't really go out there and be. Donald Trump's afraid to debate me when than when he's like, no, let's do like 4000 debates. She's like, I'll do one. I mean, it kind of show. There's no time. There's no time. Elections like, you know, in a month. It's so close. Who's got time to debate? Got to be quick. Gotta be quick.

I mean, the fact that she's not even talking to the media. No, I don't understand why the media just doesn't turn on her. They must really just Trump. Why would they? Well, why wouldn't you? When it is orange man? Bad. Come on dude, they you know, for him it's one thing to be in the pocket of a political party. It's another when the candidate refuses to talk to you. I mean, time magazine, they showed up and they're like, hey, Kamala, we love you. We're making you the cover.

We will. You're like our person of the millennium. We love you. We love you. can we get a quick interview now? Like what? You you give an interview to, some time magazine who basically wants to to you with a beautiful cover. Now, I think she's she's had enough of that over the course of her life. Probably. Well, I thought she was mainly a giver, though. Now take her. It doesn't seem like she no thinks she's, had a, I think she's a whatever you're paying for this. What?

I think I think she was doing commercials for knee pads back in the day. Just want to say. I don't mean that in a in any mean way, in any way shape or form. But then for the pantsuits. Right. It's well she, why did she's, she's stealing Donald Trump's ideas and Hillary Clinton's look what sounds like a winning combo. I mean she might get a win on that.

Well because people are that dumb where they don't pay attention and they don't know that Kamala was the one that signed off on 87,000 new IRS agents. I believe that was the number. It's close now. Well, to go after the average mom and pop and Joe and waitress that all want to make sure they get every penny of the taxes they can. And then she comes out when Donald Trump says it and goes, oh, well, no, I'm not, I'm not going to make you pay taxes.

It doesn't anybody that's poking me Joe's idea to do that, not hers. Well this is the interesting thing because now I think she has to. You can't do this thing. Most politicians Donald Trump's doing it again on day one I will. Well Kamala Harris can't do that because she's fucking the vice president. Well no, she is the vice president right now. She is saying the exact same thing. She's like, we're going to fix the economy. We're going to fix the inflation.

We're going to fix the border on day one. For me, it's like, but you're you're already in you're you're in there. You're you're right now you're the number two. So can I ask you a simple question here? Like, sorry to interrupt the donations, but you're not sorry. he's running the country right now. Well, Kamala's out on the campaign trail. Joe is eating ice cream, right? So it's probably not either one of them. Some somebody with, initials. b o it might be r I don't even know if it's him.

It could even be Axelrod. It could be a lot of these people that were around with Obama as well, because the reality is, most of the people that are running the things are not the ones that come and go every 4 to 8 years. There are people that are buying the C ever left. Well, that one you think you think Barack still sitting in the white House. Joe comes in and says, hey, I'm fucking busy. Get out of here. Yep, it's Joe. So sorry. Didn't mean to.

I, I think that, when the Pentagon said, well, we told Trump we're gonna remove troops, but obviously we're not going to move troops. I think that's because they have a different order. I like that the clip came out again. Well, again, because, you know, this is now three and a half, four years later, Kamala Harris, when running for vice president, said on day one, her and Joe, we're going to make sure that all of those cages, all of those detention centers at the border were closed.

Yeah. You know, how many of those were closed in them? None. Yeah. Well, none of them were closed. But but at the same time, they kind of weren't really wrong because that they, they, those cage was used to hold 100% of the people crossing over the border. Well, now they don't even get a half or a third. They don't get a 10th of that. Now they're literally standing there with thousands and $10,000 bills and ten hours. People are crossing over, right? There's busses, there's planes, there's.

Yeah, it's it's about as organized as you can get. It is the most organized, illegal entry point in the country. I was telling my nieces that, you know, if you're going to if you can't get a visa anymore to the US, just get a visa to Mexico. That's all you need. Close enough. Just walk right over the border. Yeah. You don't have to walk. You can take a vehicle across the border. I asked, ChatGPT. I'm like, where can I take a train trip to from the, the depot here in Joliet?

and, one of the first suggestions was Austin. I'm like, really? I have a train. Train line right from Jean. It has to Chicago. I that that is about a mile away from my house. Yeah, the Texas Eagle. So that's even better. I can get there. And then I could find it. Was it like a would I die on the one mile to get to your house? Is it like, right. It's, it's a high risk crime area. So there's that and then there's the gates with all of the, caviar guys.

I mean, they are the toughest caviar guys in the country, exist right outside of, Austin. Yeah, that's true too, actually. there's a lot of gates around, that's for sure. Real. Well, you got to keep the undesirables out, whatever they may be. But then continuing our donation segment 5199 coming in from a dude named Ben named Ben. what the hell man. Let's get too much money to waste. We remember the last show. I was like what? He couldn't even get up to $100 total before he stopped donating.

Oh, I didn't know that this is a very. So we switch the dollars off. Satoshis. yeah. This is 51, $99. Well that's about a billion satoshis right there. I know, I know that dude named Ben named Ben. Let me know that. Just like trashing people for not donating will make them donate this as a whole new level to the show. Well, now we know what to do. Now we know what works.

He says, I mean, you can just imagine the tone here, he says, Darren, just so you'll read the note remote just to good old boys. Here's twice what you asked for. It's true that I have a real job, and my wife does not. If you like Gene and I send the show to a friend and have them subscribe to the theme song. I guess he wants just some good ol boys. Yeah, that's a good song. Never meant no harm.

Robots: Breakfast Makers or Terminators?

Did I don't have to pay any royalties for me to all. You never saw Ben in trouble with the law, but they don't enforce it. It's okay. That's pretty good. That's enough deviation, right? It's a totally different song. Utterly, totally different song, but similar enough in tone. They've been in. Is not going to sue me. No, no, your buddy's, he's like, what? I don't even know why, but, yeah. So, that's the second commercial now for just to get all boys I know in the show.

This is like random number donation. And those are, you know, where, like, the people wanted on this show, they really want to talk about Gene's other show. I get why dude named Ben named Ben wants to. I don't know why he wants to, he's donating to his show. So you could talk about your own show, right? Yeah. He does that for a lot of shows, which I appreciate. That's good stuff. It is intriguing. And I was like, well, that's pretty good. That's a pretty good week already. Just 51, 99.

That's a pretty good week for unrelenting. Pretty good. But then Scott Gorman came in with $103.48. Wow Stan, look at that. And I think that's 100 plus, paying PayPal's exorbitant. $3.48 for pushing a few. The vig. PayPal. They make a lot of it. Scott, have you heard of a show called, just two good old boys. You might want to check out? I mean, I surprisingly enough, he was like, I've heard about this show. No, no, he doesn't. He says, hey there too, dude. Loving the unrelenting show.

a U.S. expat living permanently in Oxfordshire, UK is an I for sure, I for sure, I guess I think it's Oxfordshire in the UK. Keep up the great work, he says. Gee, let's hear more about vitamin D, the vitamins, these good stuff man. No medical advice right on the show. But it is good stuff. And most I mean I would assume the UK wouldn't be too different, but most Americans are severely under, what's the phrase?

they don't have enough vitamin D in their blood. So I've been taking 15,000 IU for years. And then before that I was taking 10,000 IU. And even with that, my vitamin D results from lab work yearly are average. They're not low, they're not high. So even with your 10,000 a day, 15,000, you're up to 15,000 now. Damn. Yeah. I mean I'm 15 for about a year. Year and a half. You get no sun at all. Is that the problem now? No. Well, I used to jet ski all the time.

I used to be out, like, you know, using my my skin to generate vitamin D. Incidentally, I think I said the right number in the previous show, so this is a completely wrong number. But in the right realm, it's in the real. It's close to the right number. people talk about like 10,000 like you or vitamin D, like, holy shit, that's like 20 times higher than the government recommends.

Okay. Do you know how much one hour of sunlight, like, if you're on the beach or anywhere else where you don't have your shirt on, you know how much vitamin D is generated? Well, it depends how much skin you have under that. It depends on how much skin you have. And let's say it's and it's a sunny day. It's not a cloudy day. I am a sunny day. Six dude. So I have a I'm just like a big small scale wind. Yeah, yeah. So the average person will generate 40,000 I use in one hour.

And so your little pill of 50 is like an hour of sun 15 one five. Right. Well, the pills are 50. You can get them in 50. Are you on them. The vitamin. Oh I 50 I you know, I thought you said 15,000. No. Yeah. You can get anything 80,000, 55 zero. Yeah. You can't get 50 without a prescription. Are you sure you can get 5000? Which is what most people get. Oh, is it a thousand? Yeah, it's 5000. I'm thinking it was 50,000. I mean, they all the numbers, they become meaningless.

That's the problem. Yeah. So I take three of the five thousands per day that take the vitamin D from now in the five. Let's see, 5000 IU. Oh, that reminds me. I'm going to take my B12 right now. Okay, everybody, if you got B12, now is the time to take B12 sitting right next to the microphone for a reason. It is the B12 time. Oddly enough, I just took some metoprolol and some, flak inside. Now for your heart and the, I also a little earlier did a, the, Cocu test match my profile?

Do they give you, just a it's a small dose. It is, what's the milligrams on it? 40. I think that was. What's the, like, the smaller pill? I forget now, but it's like one and a half, so I have to still go through the pain in the ass of, like, cutting a pill in half. Which reminds me of being a kid. Yeah, which I had to do with the, back then. I take two pills, so whenever it's like, it'll all be fine. It'll be good. It's. It's all good. You can take two in the morning and one. And so there's.

Well, yeah, they gave me like a quadruple dose that when I was out for my, radiation scan. Like, your heart is pumping a little too fast, sir. A lot too fast. So we're like, we like to get it to about 50, so we're just going to keep pumping you until it slows down to 52 beats per minute. They want to get a nice, nice, good picture where if it's going a little less, it's resolution of the camera apparently, so that we can't. Your heart is beating too fast, sir. You may.

Yeah, it may explode when we put the nuclear stuff in. Well, I don't think that's great. It. No, I think it's the resolution of the scans. Like the refresh rates. Not sufficient, that have to pick up a heartbeat. It's beating much faster in that. See, Brooklyn just came in with 5000. Saturn says thanks for the entertainment. Well, he did say this was the most underrated show on the internets. It's true. It is very true. And so now you got there, Scott Gorman. God, thank you.

And he got his vitamin D talk, I take mine. I've been taking the 5000 again. That was again. I cut down on a bunch of that stuff when I thought that was what was causing the, heart rate to go crazy and now it seems like, we know I. But you can't remember. You can't take vitamin D without magnesium. I do when I take the magnesium twice daily as well. The magnesium oxide is what they tends to be. I used to take the magnesium citrate.

But now I do the mag ups and I've noticed that the ones that are in tablet form. Well will come out of you much quicker than the ones in tablet form, which is magnesium kids is a nice laxative for out. So you have to know, how much you're taking and when and with what. Yeah. It's pink though. This is a black pill. The one this is from now. Oh you're black pill now.

You it's it's very it looks a lot like the a red vitamin that I take which is red, but this is a little black pill, and that's like, that's the maggots. And I'm like, well, that's weird. It's the same dose is like the little white tablet that, the maggots brand has. But I've also seen the little white tablet also from the same company, which is now which is I don't know, that's what I end up buying most of the vitamins and supplements from that brand. I don't know why.

It just tends to be the one that, yeah, there's is they seem to work okay. They seem to work well. Well, as long as you're getting the magnesium. Because if you don't, if you just take vitamin D, then, it's going to have more calcium in your blood, which could result in plaque, which your doctor will make you go and doing radioactive X-ray if he finds that. And then they're going to take like a little thing and drive it through your veins, like we're going to go scrape that stuff out.

Electric Cars and Musk's New Robot

Jean, if you're lucky, Trish is going to say, yeah, we're just going to replace that. Well yeah we're just going to slice and dice. You know we could just do a bypass. That'd be great. Yeah. We'll just we'll just stretch your vein from your leg all the way to your heart and leave it at that. Nothing that would be wrong with that at all. It's like redoing in an expressway, you know, it's perfectly fine l to find a better way to do it at some point. Oh, for sure, that's obvious.

And, Scott says all the best will. All the best to you over in the UK. Let us know what's going on over there because it seems they live. I would typically say, you know, stay healthy. Yeah. But no, I think at this point just in you could just stay alive. And I thought I was, Oxfordshire. Are you having the same issues that London and other areas are having that I mean, because I know like in, Ireland seems like some areas are not touched by migrants.

But if you go into, you know, Dublin and, you know, areas that are a little bit larger, that's where they all tend to, to migrate to for something. Now that's just where they like mayors that you that never works out very well but mean. It's interesting because a lot of people have such a small view of the world that you see this is going on in the United States.

If you live here and you have no idea that this is going on all throughout Europe, throughout the UK, and this is a worldwide phenomenon that is being pushed and financed by a small group of people. This is not accidental. This is not too incidental that all of a sudden migrants are coming from all over and they're using bullshit like, well, you see, it's global warming. The places that they live, they can no longer live. It's like bullshit. That's so bullshit.

Well, they all lived in Antarctica, is that it? I think so, you know, Africa is getting too hot. You know, there's areas in the United States. I mean, Florida was supposed to be completely underwater by now. We're kind of disappointed. It's not, you know, California and they go back and Africa is absolutely not getting too hot. The average temperatures are only high. If you look at the actual, maps that they have and, it's, not nasty anymore. It's the national climate.

Something, something. So but anyway, if you look at the maps, the biggest difference in measured temperatures is around Alaska and further north. Interesting, isn't it? Where there's no factories and very few humans. Well, they'll tell you that. What? It's the butterfly effect. What happens is. Yeah, yeah, but then nobody wants to talk about the fact that if you have the United States, let's go to zero emissions. We are now the best. And we we emit nothing. Well, Germany did that.

I mean, that's a perfect example of what happens when you go woke with climate is you go out of business. Well one you'll go out of business. But for everything that needs to be made, it's going to be made somewhere else, probably China, maybe India, where they are not following any such rules. Why would they? Exactly. But this is the concept. It's like, okay, so say you have a bunch of factories in the United States that are producing your latest iPhone, whatever it may be.

And, well, no, that's polluting too much. Well, if you just move that somewhere else, you're still getting the same pollution in the world. You're just moving it somewhere else. What you're now telling me there's no wall? It as the world is. The world over. The whole thing is warming. So the only thing you're doing by killing your country economically, by sending all of this manufacturing overseas, you're not getting a cleaner world and you're just getting screwed economically.

To nobody ever wants to talk about that on the left. Nobody ever wants to admit that. Well if they're still going to do all this you can't have like well we have a world. What. You can't have a world wide climate change thing if it doesn't include China, Russia and India. Who what percentage of the population are. It's just not included. So that doesn't matter who which who isn't included. BRICs, BRICs, the UK, Them, BRICs, BRICs. How do you not know what BRICs is?

BRICs, I don't know what's BRICs? Brazil, Russia, India, China. I've never heard that South Africans as BRICs, but oh my god. Okay, you people can hear you. But what's missing from Darren's head? You need to make more donations so this guy can actually spend some time educating himself. You people. He's not heard of BRICs. Half my posts and no agenda social back when I used to be out there. But you're not sure about BRICs, but I never really felt completely.

Did you see the goddamn thing I ever posted? Did you not? No, no, no, I don't really read a whole lot on the internet. Which is why. Because you're blind doesn't give you an excuse not to read my posts. I am way more sane. And we're like, no, no, no, no, no. It was great. We were watching a, while everybody else now see what BRICs is. And I do have, I have one good eye that is better on some days than others, but it was growing.

We were watching the wife and I a a hallmark movie the other night, and there was a blond chick playing a schoolteacher, and the wife, like, made some kind of comment like, wow, you know, something about her being old. And I'm like, well, she's like, way younger than you. And she like, looked at me like, like, what are you talking about? I'm like, she's like 35. So while we're watching the movie, the wife gets her cell phone and, like, looking it up.

Yeah. but she finds the movie, she finds the check. IMDb. Thank you for all that. And she's like the chick 39. And I'm like, what year was the movie made? I was right on it. Maybe 35. Nice. 35. I was like, gee, I was just I was up, you know, kind of real. I was it was in like Gene's head because this is what he looks for. It's like there's that cutoff 35 that's past the cutoff. Just 35 is grandma age. Well, I don't know if we want to go down that family tree, but, Thank you.

Marco Jr also came in with $3 and 33, 18 and 18. That's what, you know, kids used to be born out. Yeah, well, I mean, back in the day it was like 14, 15. That was way back then. They. But yeah. But Mark just came in with 333. That's real American money. And then we have never to be outdone, Dale from down under, Dale coming in with one 5497. And while listening to the show, he's listening right now. Dale, we love you. We hope Australia's doing that.

Well Australian thing. Yeah. The good news is we're not hearing much about Australia. So hopefully that means you guys aren't doing as bad as the UK. Don't flee. You're taking care of business down there. But during the show, he also came in with another 2625. So that's like 581 something or 185. It's a lie. Math is not your strong suit. We know now that I'm not on the flywheel, so I have ChatGPT. It tells me everything that I need to know. boy. Video is powered by ChatGPT.

Thanks. He is me. And on this he says live donation only read if still alive. I made it first live jet. Oh, so it's the first time you've ever hit the live show. That is awesome, dad. interesting. Yeah. You know, we we've only been out this time for, like, two and a half years, but what time is it in Australia? It's got to be a question.

Trump's Policies: Now Featuring Kamala

So they are, almost 12 hours, so it's got to be like 10 p.m. ish. So it's late there where like a night time show there, which it actually might work better as. I mean it depends. I think Australia's also got four time zones, so I don't know what time zone he's on. But but it's a lot. We know this number if he's on the east west coast or east coast probably the east coast is my guess. I would not want to out him. The note that he sent in with the original 1:49 a.m.

there right now. Damn. In Melbourne, at least there's a lot of dingoes eating their babies. Let's hope that it's mostly drop bears. Drop bears are the worse. You mean, koalas? No, I mean drop bears. They're vicious. The. Are they different than koalas, or is that just another name like bricks for your little Britain? Russia? Oh, yes, I invented bricks just like droppers. Do I people come to unrelenting at. It's for the unique content that you can't get anywhere else. Yes.

He says having a comrades having an oligarch down under means conditional on Darren affording you the funds. He buys you the stakes. Jean. When I buy Jean stakes, I don't want to do that. Yeah. When you when you come down on the train, you'll have to buy me some seats to just hang. I'll be like, it takes like 24 hours. So I just have to be like, I jump on the train. Go down by doing the stag jump on the train on the way back. Two days later. Back home. No problem.

You know I've thought about I've never done a long distance train trip. I've thought about it plenty of times. I think it's probably not a good idea but I've thought about it. Same here. I'm the closest that I've done. Or the longest trip I should say that I've done is Minneapolis, Duluth on a train back in the early 80s, and I got my finger pinched by the automatic door and it turned purple. Well know. So that was not the memory.

Well, the door's open and close automatically, at least back then. They did it back in the 80s when technology was prevalent. Unlike today, we had things like automated doors and there were like not 5000 sensors, like, are you going to there was zero sensors. There was like, you know, what kind of moron don't stick his fingers at the closing door. That's the sensors we had right? So, yeah, I ended up having, like, my fingernail fell off and everything.

Oh, that's, it was a pretty bad trauma to the old, finger. I can't remember which finger it is anymore, but, I couldn't have been that bad. Then how about an hour's trip when you're a kid, like some of that, man? Oh, like what age? Where? Like five or like. Oh, jeez. No, I was I was probably like 9 or 10, but before either way, it was, no beard at that point yet, though. No beard. But, you know, but you're like, I put a needle in their finger and then, like, oh, you got a pop?

It deflated. Right? I kind of pop that. Exactly. You got to do that. Otherwise there's more damage than I thought about the train trip as well, mainly because flying does not seem like any fun anymore unless I want to completely overspend like you do. I mean, you get your first glass, there's enough legroom for me if you're not flying first class. It is a danger because you just don't fit in the seat well being. Say, if you're not flying first class, you're not flying well. That's true as well.

That is true as well. But I just don't have the, the caviar guy money yet. And the train, it seems like I stink. Money. That's all I care about, right? Snake money is good. Little filet mignon took the rare almost still beating. You can almost see the heartbeat still going on at that 50, pounds from 50 beats per minute. But the train seems like it would be not bad. Although when you look at the prices that they charge you for, like a private little room on the train, it's the same.

It's the same as flying first class. It's getting there, it is getting there. And you don't wanna be. Have you like you must have back in the day seen silver Streak. Remind me what that was. It's a movie about trains. Okay, well, I don't remember from that, I don't remember, I may have it sounds somewhat familiar. I remember I saw a Risky Business where it had a in it. Do you remember Richard Pryor, Silver Streak? I remember Richard Pryor. I do not remember him in a movie about trains, though.

Wait, no, I don't remember him. I go in over the top like, conductor outfit for some reason. Gene Wilder, Richard Pryor, you don't remember this movie? I don't think so. But if I saw it, it was probably like Ned Beatty, 15 years old, was like 85 somewhere in there. 73. Wow. Okay. I would have been three. it was on in replays a lot. It was a movie about, you know, Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder on a train. And the train. I think there is.

What you think I'm hearing here is that you and I should go on a train trip and then do it. Well, no, I'm saying this was like one of those buddy movies on a train. Kind of like planes, Trains and Automobiles was John Candy. And, my hands were just here between these pillows. That's right. Those are pillows. Steve Martin and, John Candy. Yeah. That's it. Those two guys. Same kind of deal. Well, it's, it's hard to say. You know, one of them has been dead a long time, but he was pretty damn funny.

Yeah, yeah. John Candy was a very, He he played good characters. He didn't have a whole lot of range. Let's be honest. But the characters he played were very sympathetic. Yes. Heartfelt characters. Yeah. Yeah. Like he relatable. But even even the character in planes trains I bills. He was a sales guy, traveling sales guy, which, you know, everybody hates, was still a kind of innocent deep down. I don't remember that, but I think we I think we should take a train trip. yeah.

Cause didn't Obama say you can keep your shoes on? Maybe you don't have to keep your shoes on no matter what. You know. Well, that's it. I mean, the again, the pain in the ass of the airport. I mean, it seems like it would be an interesting thing if you had that little respite. I don't think I would want to do it. Just having a regular seat, because if you're going to sleep, even if it's in the comfortable, cramped, take a train. You need to have a cabin, right? Not a freaking seat. Right?

Because if you fall asleep in the seat, you're probably getting robbed. You're getting robbed no matter what. Who pays you probably out of have a cabin at least. Yeah, I think that's the only way to go. And it's, you know, 24 hours, you're spending a full day. Yeah, in that, train. So you're hobbling, hoping that I do have a friend here in Austin who's one takes the train. Yeah, it takes the train up to Fort Worth to visit his mom on a regular basis. Is that part, I guess the same line?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You'd go through Fort Worth to get to Austin. is Fort Worth ever crossed your mind? Great song. George Strait. it's, Well, you know, all his ex is live in Texas. That's true. I think, it's about a three hour train ride to Fort Worth. I believe. So it's pretty comparable to driving. Maybe just a tad slower, a little more relaxing. it's arguable. You know, the train has to make a lot of noise when it's crossing intersections. That's not super relaxing.

Oh, well, if you don't want them to run people. And the thing. And this is just going by what I seen in videos, but it seems like in real or near urban environments like Chicago or Kansas City or Fort Worth or us, and the trains maximum speed is about 25 miles an hour. Yeah, they slow them down. So it's way slower than the car until you get out of the city, at which point they'll get up to about 75.

That cruising altitude, they don't really go that like I remember years ago I was in, Japan several times, but the last time I was there was, 1999. So damn long time we got a party. Party? Like it was 1999, in Japan. Yeah. Hell, yeah. that was that same year I was also in Hong Kong, and that was a party because, that was Hong Kong. Immediately after shifting the, ownership to China.

So it was still very reminiscent of the UK, but a lot of Chinese Hongkongers, that's a term were, very much looking forward to their new found release from the Imperial UK because they think that China was going to be a lot better. But no, because it was supposed to be an independent, zone, economic zone or whatever the state.

I think that their mood changed about a year later, the 2000, when in 99, they, their, their mood was very much like, hey, we we for 100 years we've been enslaved and now we're free for about a year until the other people were like, oh, yeah, you're not all that free. but the trains in Japan were borderline science fiction. First of all, they look freaking cold. The Shinkansen, which is the bullet train out in Japan. it has a schnoz. It has a nose on it for aerodynamic purposes.

And to, you know, if it hits something to make sure the it's you're, like, not going to damage the actual train with, whatever. It's, fuck that. There are people that commit suicide every year by going on the railroad tracks. Trains don't stop for people out there. so it's really cool shape and angles, really freaking fast. I, I want to say that. You know, it's been like, over 20 years, but I want to say even back then, in 99, I think the trails and trains were going a little over 300km an hour.

And, being, a techno nerd van and I had a GPS with me right on a train. You verified their claims? Yeah, exactly. And it was probably a very smooth ride as well. Oh, it's super smooth. Yeah, yeah, it's a very, very smooth ride. Not like, I mean any any rail traffic around Chicago. You can't. We feel like you're going to fall off the track at any time because it's so.

Yeah. And you do and it happens with some regularity in the United States where there's really not any substantial upkeep of the railroad system. there used to be when the railroads were built, there used to be a, a job for a dude to walk around and check the railroad ties and rails. Right. Well, that's like those little things that were hand powered, you know, you pump it up and down. That was the old back in the day, the thing that just slowly went

and they the train cart. Yeah. And they that they used to be, it's like each guy was responsible for ten miles of track. That's it. That's a full time job. Ten miles. right now I think that, it's been a while, but probably a decade ago, I watched something where they talked about, like, these fading jobs. There's, like, one person per 200 miles. That seems like tracks that I would are not getting maintained at all. How does how was I not taking this over?

You had a little device that goes up and down the tracks and videos, everything it looks at. Oh, I think that technologically this is completely solvable. Here's the problem is they would probably have to replace about 60% of the tracks in the U.S., and no one has the budgets for that. True. And if you know there's a problem, you can't run the train and you're better off not checking. Compiler is going to fix that on day one. Probably. I can feel that coming.

You should watch Silver Streak and read up on bricks. I mean, I did watch the, Howie Mandel does things with Katie Segal. Yeah. What do you think about that? I thought it was an interesting show. I mean, this seems like comparatively was even though the look was completely different, this reminded me of talk shows back in the 80s, kind of a thing, that kind of a vibe.

People were having fun, you know, it was the look of it, obviously different because people are wearing headphones and sitting, you know, the while some people, some people refused to put them on even though they're sitting right next to them. And I don't know if you noticed that the daughter doesn't like the headphones, that it. No, no, not how she would wear out a sign. No, no, no how. It's fine with them too. No. I'm talking. My guess is that you can tell which guests just don't give a fuck.

They're like. They're like, They're like sitting on a couch that I couldn't even tell. They are far away. Say how he was about 60. Okay, so it's close a little. You couldn't really tell from the camera angles unless I know how he's sitting at a desk with his daughter and his daughter's, like, in her mid 30s and, you know, practically grandma. Right. And, yeah, once you get to that age. Yeah. Pretty much.

Oh, I think she's got an eight year old and a ten year old right now, but, but the guest is not sitting at a desk or even on a chair. The guest is sitting at a coffee table on a sofa across from Howie's desk. So how do you start looking down on the the guest? Yeah. So I think that's by design. I'm sure you get your position of power. Exactly. But the I just I mean each I mean every guest is obviously going to be completely different and of course but how he is a he's a very smart dude. Right.

The most interesting thing was have a long way from a dude who used to put like, latex gloves on and said, right, and do the little Roger whatever the kid's name was, like, and, he and and he always seemed stoned to me. He was always giggling. Well, I think he was just goofy. I mean, I think that was part of the that was part of the stick. I mean, maybe he was down there all the time, but I don't it was interesting that he admitted.

And it was the reaction more so than anything else from Katie Seagull when he's like, you know, I'm really a very conservative guy. Just why? It's like, wait a minute. I mean, I thought for a minute she was going to walk off like, you're not voting for Trump, are you? but how? He's like, well, yeah, but I don't, you know, again, you can survive as long as you don't flaunt it, I guess. But the fact that he even admitted that like, oh, I appreciate that.

Well, he's got the double hit going for him. Not only is he a triple hit, probably all you see in the in the Hollywood real I mean, he's not so much an actor, but he's actor adjacent. Yeah. He's had gigs which they talked to. The fact that he only big one 500 an episode for Saint elsewhere. Yeah. I'm thinking I'd love to make 2500 a day for a week for work. That would be not bad at all. 2500 a week. Well, you know, for that kind of work that just ever slightly above poverty wage actually.

Yeah. Well back then it wasn't. Well it's that long ago it was like 25 years ago. That's why I'm memory memories. So we're talking about going to Japan in the 90s man. Anyway he's is that Neil Diamond. no I don't think so. I forget though, it was memories. I don't remember. but I'm bummed for everybody. How are you doing? This is Nations guys. Clearly, to get some, vitamin B pills ordered up, we had to get our B12. We got to get all.

We got to get Gene's heart rate and proper, lockstep with, what it should be. But, yeah, I would recommend people listen to the Howie Mandel show, but I will continue from Dale from Down Under who says I am do some holidays next year. Nice. He says if you would be so kind, sir gene, bring a message to old Ellen and tell him to put a launch on worthy of a trip and sort the weather out so I would be okay. So like a year from now. Perfect.

Dale wants to come out for a launch, and we could have the first ever unrelenting barbecue. Yeah. He said, if you come out of them came out here to Texas, would you drive down there or fly down there? Dude, there's a train. You can just hop right on that train. Be there in 24 hours. I mean, that's barely nothing. Well, you know, it's probably still way better than, trying to get drive to O'Hare. Well, yeah, I wouldn't want to drive. No. And, flying again. Still, I don't know.

I have, you know, back in the day, that's just a two day drive. And, you know, legally, I don't even think I can fly right now because I never did get the new guy. You must get real I.D.. I don't have a real. Well, you don't have a driver's license at all. I do, but they don't count. Is a real idiot as your state. Oh, your state is a socialist one. That's right. Yeah, yeah, and we have to go. I think that's hilarious. Yeah. All the states that that, like, illegal sanctuaries.

They don't get to supply their actual citizens with anything that works is proof of citizenship. That's great. We got to go. And you got to pay, like, 25 bucks or something. You know, it's like, screw you. And the only reason to get. I have to ask for it at all. You could use your passport. You know, I had a passport. The last time I used it, though, was 2009, so I don't know if that's. That's fired, that's expired. And, but they want you to, like, come in with this is the crazy thing.

You have to bring other forms of identification. Oh, yeah. And I'm like, wait, my fucking driver's license isn't good enough. That's not a form of I.D. three. But what is at that point? passport. But I don't, okay? I don't have a passport. Birth certificate is not really. How do you. How are you going to match somebody up? I can bring in a birth certificate that says my name is Dale from Down Under. How are they going to know you? Good.

So the concept like this is perjury law with a, minimum one year prison sentence. Yeah. Nobody goes to jail for that. No. Illinois baby, if you're white, do you do? Well, if that may be true, that may be true. I could say just that I'm LGBTQ, but, I mean, it's the same thing here, dude. Yeah, I got my driver's license renewed. I already have a real ID driver's license, and I got it renewed, and I have to bring my passport. I've renewed my license twice without doing anything.

Yeah, and I have to bring my passport, because in Texas, given that we're a border state, the entire time I've lived here, they have required that you prove that you're a citizen before you get your driver's license. So I would have to do that before flying anyway. I don't think I did that to get on the train, though, so at least there's that. I don't even think you need the driver's license. This thing, you just kind of show up and give them a $12 ticket. Right. All aboard.

Come on down. We'll take you right down to Austin. Sir. Gene, I'll pick you right up at the station. That's right. In a, what Tesla truck would that be? yeah. You think I'm going to get my money then I doubt it. That's true. Well a year I mean get Elon on the phone, be like Elon first day I put a fucking down payment thing. the first day they announced that five years ago. Elon Musk's truck man.

Yeah, well, I'm not I'm not going to buy it at this point, but I was hoping for at least like a notification saying, hey, by the way, you're up in line, your trucks ready for pickup. It's almost I ain't seen that. It would be like what Apple would do. Like, it's almost time for you to get our awesome product. We want you to be ready to enjoy. Vale says this was glossed over on the last show. However, I'd like to take a moment to salute Mrs. O. The comments.

There are no relayed about sir Gene out with his one black friend, trying to pull a firm breasted young thing in his BLM shirt. Fucking brilliant people. Solidarity medal for comrade missus. Oh well, all she said is looking at jeans. She couldn't understand how he was going to attract any women. So like you said, he was independently wealthy. And then she understood everything. because money talks.

Yeah. And if the money does suck, if the new woman doesn't give him his B12 at this D, then she inherits his things much quicker. Yeah, that's that's also true. Yes. Exactly. Like they'll make sure I'm taking the right pill sweetie. Oh I will, I will what's this. What's this new pill here. Oh it's a new supplement. Don't worry. It's great. Not arsenic at all. he says talk of the north sick is is a bad thing. Talk of the North-South trade corridor being implemented.

It facilitates in the Arusha China trade. Mostly overland. Yes, yes, he says coincidentally, it runs through. I ran, which gives hope of the Baghdad to Berlin railway. Reentering the chat. Oh, then he says Venezuela in line to join BRICs. when he talks about BRICs. Oh, look at that. Other people know about BRICs and you don't sucker. Oh, he's literally have a note that mentions breaking. You're like BRICs.

Immigration Chaos at the Border

what's right. You just make that up. What is that? That's what they make homes out of. I got a brick house. I don't know, job hunger supplies, lithium to China, CBD Uber deal. That's true. It's going to be interesting in that too many people I think are single cited, Dale. And they don't they don't understand everything going on outside of the United States. And two, they don't believe that there are actually evil countries. I think the the socialists and commies here really believe like,

oh, China and Russia. Those are just nice. They're great. They are nice. You know, nothing to worry about. They're going to be our friends. No. Now that that's two different things. Being nice has nothing to do with being friends of the United States. The only way the U.S. has been acting, it's nice countries wouldn't be friends sending Kamala over to try to get a deal, That might work, but can you imagine?

I really I'm just trying to picture her sitting in a room with any other world leader and having that go well, somehow. Well, she has experience and getting men to do what she wants them to do. That's okay. That's a good point. But I think she's kind of past her. Yeah, I think she's past expiration date, though, at being the one to deliver the, the goods. It's put back in her head. They all. Yeah. They all says they unrelenting mofos. The B.S. is thick and unrelenting.

Yes it is. That's why we do the show. And we thank you for listening, especially live. For the first time, we are broadcasting this signal all over the globe from Shireen, Texas, all the way to Australia live. It's amazing the signal stretches that far. It's truly amazing. It blankets the globe. Did you ever know you were going to be an international radio host? No. See. And that was that was the strangest thing.

I believe when you do believe starting to do the podcast, that wasn't as much, hey, we got 20 people to listen. We got 200 people to listen. We got 2000 people to listen. It was looking at the stats and going, I think somebody in the Netherlands is listening, or I think somebody in, you know, all different corners of the world is listening.

And that's something I don't think you really consider until you're waist deep and it's like, well, this is just kind of weird that you're able to have that kind of reach, especially live. I mean, it's one thing when you're putting the mp3's out there, but now that the streaming technology is where it is, I mean, I've had, lady Rock for like 20 years, though. Yeah. But I mean, it's even to the point where I've had people like Lady Vox commenting while listening live on an airplane at 30,000ft.

It's just a very weird world that it's like the technology is there for people to access what you're doing pretty much anywhere. And we appreciate everybody for listening. We appreciate everybody who has helped support the show. I mean we've gone a long time with no donation. So it's a very weird day where your buddy dude named Ben named Ben. I'm like oh wow. He's he's stepped up. He's going to be the big guy at 51, 99. And then Scott Gorman said, nope.

And then Dale from Down Under was like, double nope. Yeah. That's awesome. And then I think somebody just donated, today and this may be the, the largest Brooklyn. Did you mention Kirkland single day Kirkland or, see Brooklyn. See Brooklyn? Yes, yes, I did. He is also the guy that said this is the most underrated show on the interwebs. It's true. Yeah. He came in with that 5000 satoshis and said, thanks for the entertainment. And you got the drip. Scott. Yeah, and comic strip blogger. okay.

I, I don't listen to what you're saying. So obviously this is so I didn't pay attention to you making those donation things. But we also saw a video of there was one of these guys, and I know there's a few of them, but this is a white dude on YouTube that speaks Chinese in other languages. Oh yeah. You know the guy you're talking about? Yeah, he is back in China. And one of the things he was having done and like the little out, I don't know, it was outdoor, I think it was.

But like mall kind of an area where this chick was cleaning his ears with like a thing that goes in the air and some little tool and you like, see everything in the ear, and it looks like the slime that you used to see on Nickelodeon that you're, oh, there's like little black pieces coming out. And I'm like, does this thing is why is not about summer? Is that what they call it? The ear cleaning is proceeds? Yeah, that's the guy's name.

They could be real with the ear cleaning thing is a New York Jewish guy. Yeah. And he speaks Chinese, and he freaks everybody out because nobody thinks a white guy should speak Chinese, right? Right. Although I will say this, there's there's another couple of guys that do the same thing he does as well. They all do a similar thing in every language that people are like, oh, I didn't know you speak this. Yeah. they, they repeat phrases over and over in a way that a native would not.

And I notice this and like several different languages that he was speaking where like, if somebody says, I guess it sounds kind of like you're anxious, it's kind of like, yeah, I, I'd like to, burger, a burger. I'd like to have a burger, you know, who speaks like that? Well, Trump does, I guess. But, typically most people don't repeat things multiple times when they're speaking.

And that is a characteristic that these guys have to combat what otherwise would have been slow speech, because they need more time to process a foreign language. Like, you know, everybody does. It's not a native speaker because you're not thinking in that language. You're thinking in English, and they're doing translation into the other language, and you're, you're going to take longer than you would in your native language to say something.

But the the trick that these guys seem to employ and I like, there's at least three guys he's one of them on YouTube that do a similar thing to where like, oh, I can speak 20 different languages. Like, yeah. Which you totally more than most people. Absolutely don't want to take that away from. But nowhere near like a native.

Like you can speak it to where you're understandable, but you're coming across as a foreigner who's learning the language and not anywhere near like a native speaker right now. In the main thing would be understanding what people are saying about you. When they don't think you can understand, that's then that's a skill. Yes, exactly. And that's always funny.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I've seen that use that movie I think thing where somebody shouldn't understand and you just assume that the person. What I mean especially Chinese, it's one of those languages. Japanese is right up there. So people like our buddy Lloyd Zero who are learning Japanese like it is a big undertaking to learn real. Yeah. You know, more so than just Spanish or French or, you know, something like that.

I think it's way more difficult, although I guess it's probably a little easier to speak Chinese in Japanese than to learn all of the symbols as well. That, Oh, yeah. Represent there looks like I think reading Chinese would be more difficult. Or at least reading, you know, actual books. Maybe not reading like storefront signs.

Those are going to be fairly simple, but but it's like they should be the least, you know, you can do when entering into an area which we had talked about Peter Sant'Angelo or Santa Lena or whatever the guy's name is. It does the travel stuff. It does these long form documentaries of multiple episodes for a particular ethnic group or a particular group of religious people? Yeah, he does a lot of interesting stuff.

And I thought, wow, you know, he goes into some of the less desirable areas of the United States. And then I found the guy that is doing the same thing as him, that same style video that was, from South Africa, I think he said South Africa in Germany. And then he went into Venezuela. And I'm like, okay, this is taking it in for villas. Yeah. And I think what saved his ass because everywhere he was walking, he was immediately recognized as gringo doesn't belong here.

And people would yell stuff at him but he would immediately answer in the fact that he spoke Spanish well enough I think made it so people didn't want to just totally, you know, rob him and kill him right on the. Yeah. Right on the spot. It was like, okay, you know, there is something to be said where somebody comes into your house like that, and, Yeah, okay. They learned your language. That is, you know, impressive.

But I saw a guy, another one of these guys who didn't speak any Korean, as far as I could tell, went into North Korea. And I'm like, that's ballsy as well. As a white guy. I would totally go into North Korea. North Korea's got awesome resorts, man, I was unaware.

I mean, I'm sure that, you know, the place this guy was in didn't look like the, you know, the Taj Mahal or anything, but really, I will say that the underground, you know, the tube, the mass transit system, like, way better, way cleaner, way safer than, anything in the United States, right? Yeah, yeah, it's very pointy chicks, that is. No doubt about it. I mean, in general, North Korea is way safer than the United States. Oh, yeah.

If you don't mind looking at pictures of Kim Jong Moon on every building that you go to in every poster on every wall that, no, the problem in North Korea is for the people that live in North Korea. they they love tourists. They don't care if you're coming from the United States or if you're coming from Europe, or if you're coming from, you know, most places they don't really like black people. But other than that, it's a very, very positive experience for tourism.

They've got ski resorts, they've got, mountain villages, they've got all kinds of cool places to go, and the locals can't go there. So they're exclusively for, other travelers. So sign up now for our first unrelenting getaway right in sponsored by North Korea, right into North Korea. Well, that's the thing. It's like they're made out to be this evil country. And again, I wouldn't want to live there. Pretty obvious that it's a horrible, place to live. Right?

You wouldn't want to fall under the rules, but I've. I've yet to see quite a few countries I wouldn't want to live in. I thought it was interesting going there. It's not a bad experience. Some of the things that were illegal was, like, if the Supreme leader is on the front page of the newspaper, you cannot fold the paper through his image. Yeah, they will make what do you think will put you in jail for that? No. They have a lot of respect for the leader, that's all.

And there's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with the respect you fall. The picture of Trump and Maga will put you away. You think so? They're like, oh no, you folded. I mean, that's seen. Have you not seen over the last couple of weeks all the MAGA deplatforming that are happening I have not there. Oh yeah. The MAGA people are forming others or kidding. Yeah, yeah. Kyle Rittenhouse where the guy that defended himself in, in, Minneapolis, Wisconsin. Oh, Wisconsin. Right. I'm sorry.

had during the George Floyd riots, he said that, you know, he he's going to vote for a write in candidate. He's going to vote for, What's this? What's his name? Our guy. Our guy. I'm blanking out here. Who are we voting for? Kicking in. You know, our guy from Texas? doctor? guy. What's his name? Paul. Doctor. Paul. Who's doctor Paul. Oh, my. Yeah. Now you got to take, Yeah. What's his first name? he was a candidate for president, a decade ago, a Ron Paul.

Ron Paul. Yeah. Doctor. Paul. Isn't he dead? No, he's not dead. He's got a he's got a podcast. Jesus Christ, dude, Ron Paul's still alive. I don't remember, I know oh my God, yes, Ron Paul is still alive. Is he still running? I don't think he's running, but he's walking. This this is what he was. Does a podcast daily. You got a daily podcast, dude. You used to do that as well and then nobody listened. And I know, I know, but, he says he ain't dead. Well. You sure? Can we double check?

Oh, my God, you are with somebody. Needs to check your brain, buddy Ron Paul for some reason, I thought Ron Paul was dead. I mean, I knew Rand Paul's around, but I didn't know Ron Paul. He's, like, got to be, like, 8 million years old. So he's getting right in Ron Paul because, you know, the Ron Paul represents his political, viewpoint, which I think he does for a lot of people.

Ron Paul was a very libertarian minded conservative or a very conservative minded libertarian, whichever you want to pick. And holy shit, did the storm of MAGA go down on this poor kid? You know, people were canceling him left and right, uninviting him from being a guest on their talk shows and podcasts and things. They were talking about how nasty and evil he is and that he's a traitor. That's like, what the fuck? What? First of all, it's his first time voting.

There's nothing wrong with voting for a third party or a write in candidate as your first time voting, it's you got to remember that for the rest of your life. It's a it's a neat thing. And if you don't want to vote for Trump, don't frickin vote for Trump. But the MAGA crowd has gone religious about this.

And, that's a bad sign because, that that just smacks of Q and then and the Q and A and people were, frankly, responsible for a lot of the losses that happened, not for the president, but for the, other positions, in elections, because they kept waiting. And it's all part of the plan. It's all, you know, Trump is going to come back in office and and he's doing this just to catch the swamp. And then he's going to he and the military are going to take over and and put all these swamp people

in prison. How that worked out for you guys. I don't think the swamp was drained. yeah. Yeah, I think yeah, the the swamp beat the crap out of Trump. Let's face it. And Ron Paul is 88. So you can kind of see where I thought he might be dead. You're he just probably I was like, I understand at some point you're going to go he does a podcast. Well anyway, that'll keep him alive longer. Is this the is that the. That's what I heard. Yeah. Because you can't miss a podcast because people get mad.

They do. They get very pissed off very quick. Right. Balls like I'd like to die, but, then people are going to be pissed off. But I understand the, and I don't know how the MAGA people are going to cancel someone, I guess, within their little group. Well, there's there's. Yeah. And then the latest one is Joe Rogan, who also announced that he's not voting for Trump. And that's like what you're you're betraying Trump. You know, screw you. You're you're the worst.

We were we always knew you were a socialist and we're going to boycott you. I mean like, oh, I mean, there's something to be said first of all, good luck. Yeah. Most people that listen to him are apolitical. First of all, his general audience are people that like comedy and to some extent like the wacky conspiracy theorists that he has. these are people that very likely don't vote at all, period.

So but I understand the concept for, yeah, any election, this one, especially you have two candidates that have a shot. And if you say you're going to vote for somebody else, whether it's Mickey Mouse or Ron Paul, most people will look at that as a vote that could have been gone to their person, whichever that may be, rather than thrown away. And I think that is accurate. Oh, they absolutely look at it. But and this is part of the problem.

It's like, why the hell are you assuming that somebody has to vote for your guy? What? Nobody. It's like, well, if you vote for a libertarian, you're throwing your vote away and you're you're frankly costing us the election. Well, it's the very day. How about you try harder to get their vote instead of bitching about how their vote was supposed to go to your guy and they didn't, what's the dangerous place that we're in right now? Which is you're either with our side or you're against it.

And if you're against it, you're an enemy. And I don't think that is something that is unique to MAGA or to the, the Antifa left. I think it's. All the way around. Exactly. That's kind of my point, is that the fact that MAGA is now acting this way, like Antifa was and still is, is sad because it's a. It's it's taking the worst qualities of the guys you're fighting and then utilizing them, like, there's plenty of other things that I think MAGA could be doing, like vote harvesting for one. Right?

Oh, yeah. The reason that this happened, I like that's what they need to do. They need to ballot harvest all day long with this legal means. Of course. Yeah. And, and instead there's more infighting, within these groups of people. Would you do you think that making fun of Joe Rogan are really bashing him for not voting or saying he's not going to vote for Trump?

And incidentally, he probably still will, because the guy that he said he's going to vote for is very likely to drop out before the, the actual election happens, which is, Robert Kennedy. Well, yeah, it seems like there well, he doesn't want to drop out, but it seems that no, but he's I think he's going to I think he's going to get a deal from the Democrats saying, like, your family's been part of the political machine for 60 years or more. is it 70 years now?

the last thing you want to do is ruin their legacy. We'll give you a position in the administration and Camila's administration, and you drop out,

Train Trips from Joliet: A Journey to Austin

and then we don't split the Democrat ticket, do you? And I don't go for it. I think you will do it. Do you really believe he would take enough off? He'll take more from Democrats than he would from Republicans, that's for sure. Well, this is why they're playing dirty on a lifelong Democrat to get him off the ballot. Well, right. That's my point is I think that he will do it.

He will get off the ballot if he gets something in trade and something in trade is going to be a position in the administration. Well, here's the thing something what if he gets something in trade? The Trump the people are like, we got a trade for you two. We have a bill they don't theory talk to the Trump people and they don't have a trade for him I that would just be dumb. But I mean that ball it's that's what's happened. I mean that's a this is all clearly not keeping up with the news.

That's twice because it's very hard to, verify what's going on in those kind of circles because you don't really know. And it's interesting when you look at the it seems he. Yeah, he looks great. I think the smart move for Trump's people would be to get him on board, not drop out. Keep running and not and I wouldn't have him endorse Trump either. I would keep him running for the rest of the campaign and draw those Democrat votes away from Democrats.

And then after the election is over, then Trump can look magnanimous and offer him a cabinet position. Right. And frankly, I think he could totally have a position that will look at, medical companies, their rules, regulations, and the reevaluate the, lack of accountability for vaccines. Like, that's his bailiwick. That's what he's into. And frankly, he's on the right side of that. So let's have him take that forward. Well, here's it doesn't matter which it doesn't matter.

Well, whose administration it is, Democrats or Republicans. Like that's a that's a topic that he wants to focus on that both of them could offer him well, but there's an even bigger player than RFK Jr that has been known to want a big payday and sell their allegiances. And, what they say is important for the right deal. And that's Joe Biden. Jones, Joe Biden, no Joe Biden. Yeah, here's the thing. Now, here's what I imagine this next week, Monday, they fucked Joe.

They've pulled his power from him. Allegedly. They probably went after his family. And they said, Joe, you got to get out. And Joe is not happy about it. And somebody what if Hunter juices up Joe, and Joe goes out there like, we're only going to let you speak on Monday because we wanted to sweep you under the rug so fast. We're having our. You're only the acting president of the country. I know that you're the actual president. He's not just acting, he's.

Why are you acting? Very little, not presidential. But imagine you know what kind of deal this would be worth if Joe Biden got out there on Monday night in Chicago at the Democratic National Convention. And said, Fuck the Democrats. They screwed me. Vote. Trump is they're trying to like, cut his mic off and, okay, MAGA, wouldn't that be great? I'm sorry. Okay. Sure looks more like that MAGA union. But you know where this is happening. Like, I know there's more than zero.

Zero means there's no way it really that and it's their chance. Trump could be like, hey Joe, I'll pardon your kid. I'll pardon you. It'll be great. Trump should pardon this kid regardless. Why would agree. But he has to get the job first. I can't believe Joe hasn't pardoned the kid yet because I would I would do that. Said he wouldn't. He said he wouldn't. Yeah, but that was before he knew he was walking out the door. A lot of people say things and then change their mind.

He could still do it on the last day of his presidency, which is when most people, including Obama, pardoned everybody. Yeah, but what if he doesn't make it to his last day? Joe has got to be thinking forward here. They you ready? So I don't want to do it here, Joe. I don't think there's a whole lot of chance of him not making it. He's already bowed out. He has zero risk to them.

And if he stands up and says vote for Trump, man, my party, I'm going to say, just like my party tried to screw Donald J. Trump. They're trying to screw me. Don't trust Democrats, Joey. That would be great. And if he put his hand up in the air and yelled, fight, fight, fight! Oh, what a moment that would be. You know what else would be great? If pigs flew, he could put him on a plane. I mean, that first class probably. But you could put about a plane there.

Okay, but this is the kind of election cycle that we are in where, again, Kamala Harris, people. A week before she was announced as the nominee, all of the polling had her level of, support below Joe Biden. We had a round table on seeing that the lowest right there was a round table office. Yeah, man, that was handy. All of these time. The history of the United States, she's literally the least popular veep that the country's ever had. Right?

We had CNN a week before it literally saying, maybe the only way Joe could win is to cut her from the ticket. There was a whole segment on how this plays Kamala, the next president. And and that's the thing is, she's the likely winner. I mean, let's face it, the election's don't actually decide who the winner is in this country. It's the Mail-In ballots, which there are boxes and boxes of that decide who's the winner. So she has a very good chance of being the first female president.

She's got a very good chance of winning the election. I give the Republicans credit for pushing early voting this time, something they did not do last time. That I think is a push. I think you're absolutely there's a danger with that. There's a danger. There's a danger with everything you because, if you push early voting, then they can simply throw away the ballots of people that vote for Trump and replace them with ballots. for Kamala, who's like, random, the numbers still add up correctly.

That can help a lot of the turnout. But elections, in person, then the number of people voting could be greater than the number of people of the population of adults over 18 in the country. That's a very likely scenario as well, because if Trump has as much support as a lot of people seem to think, he does, and he certainly, I think has more support this time round than he did last election. And last election was a record setting number of votes for Trump, right and right. Biden beat him.

But at that point, Trump got in the last election, got more votes than any presidential candidate in history. Yeah. And so this time it's almost assured that Trump will get more votes than he got last time, because there are plenty of people that were red billed and are now going to vote for Trump there. There are. I'm sure there are some, but I think there are very, very few people that voted for Trump last time that would vote for Kamala this time.

So Trump will have potentially an undisputable over 50% of the voting public's vote, which is why you do the ballot harvesting, which is why for the people that will win, you can do the early voting. You've got to play every trick in the book. And the interesting thing is we talked about this at length.

The thing that we believe made a big difference in the last election was the bucks and the money that was spent by Mark Zuckerberg throughout Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and those states, that everything was on a razor thin margin when it comes to winning the Electoral College. But now this time, we have Musk. We have Elon Musk, who I don't think is a savior. I'm with Adam Curry on that, but he is now in control of one of the most used social. Now what?

Oh, you repent now you better be calling him a Savior. He's our Lord and Savior. I do not want to be blaspheming. I do not want lightning to hit me with repent all. I will fall on your head. I believe the fact that he is openly touting Trump and openly poking fun at all the stuff the Democrats are doing. I think this could have an effect, as crazy as that may seem. I think that could have an effect, and I think that alone would have been enough.

If you look at the last presidential election and you turned Twitter instead of the complete anti-conservative bastion of filth that it was, and people getting shadow banned, and you turn that in the other direction, I think that makes a big difference. And I don't think Musk is going to be shadow banning the left, but they seem to have left X now on their own because, oh my God, they're letting the right people speak. Yeah, exactly.

I think certainly having X be out there and certainly, it's having some impact. I don't know if it's having enough impact, but certainly it's having some impact. The problem with X, just like Twitter is it's still mostly just keyboard warriors. Right. Which sandwich I like to talk about in the UK you will. The UK is going to extradite us. Yeah that's right. They're going to extradite.

That'll be well and I've already put in a call to Interpol to start arresting these UK politicians that, are breaking, international laws because that's a good idea. They. Yeah, they're threatening genocide. That that's literally a crime that is, pursued by Interpol. I want to know just this is totally off the, the subject, but I just, I looked at how many people were listening on X right now, and it's like 24, so not do it.

But I also saw grok Gene, did you notice that in that image you're using both a desk stand and a broom stand out. This is so sad. Yes. Is that how you actually do it? I mean, that's a pretty interesting way to, to position the microphone. Yeah. No, I have, but but you know what? It's interesting because I have neither I have the, the low mike arm. Oh. Like the fancy band arm. I don't know what time band drew has. It's like the, Joe Rogan arm. Right?

That's what band drew. Yeah, he's a professor. Okay. He has even better audio than Joe Rogan. See? No, I think so. What did you know? I asked you more people, and I know I'm the fucking asshole. Don't get me wrong. But when I listened to the Rogan show, when I listened to the Dale Earnhardt Jr show, which user? It's very much the same. Rogan setup. Yeah, yeah. And they use the. Sure 77B and the low sevens are out of control.

It's like fucking put bigger windscreens on or fucking do a little bit of post-processing. They have some great filters that will minimize the chase digitally. You don't need to put bigger, right? If you don't want to do it. If you don't want it in the frame, you can post-process. It would take a little bit of time afterwards, but get rid of those obvious plosives. I can't stand plosives when listening to things. Yeah, you can't stand what plosives,

especially because I'm usually listening. and my, watching on my big 60 inch television with my JBL speakers, with the 12 inch woofers. So the plosives are like, oh, I'm like, no. okay. Well, that's probably why you're more sensitive to that. Makes a lot of sense. Yeah. It's like I don't want I mean, if you're listening on your phone, I get it. The plosives aren't going to have much. You're not going to hear diddly squat from your phone speakers.

You. Yeah. But the information that's putting in I guess maybe most of these people aren't mastering with proper headphones or most of these people employed a producer for their audio skills. They employed a buddy who needed a job. Probably. Yeah. I'm serious. when I've when I've talked to. Well, that's how I hired you for this. You're doing podcast. You were like, I really need a new podcast. Nobody's starting me at some point, too. But yeah, the, This just. Did you read your contract?

Did you read the rolling in money I hear only did you see the little fine print? That's like only your salary starts once we raise 100,000 a year. Then I did see that. Yeah. Then the salary, I think would be on 100,000, aren't we? I don't think we're still think we're 1000 SATs.

Donation Segment: Trash Talking for Bitcoin

2000, 200,000. Oh SATs. Yeah. We got that. But yeah. And dollars salary dues. Yeah yeah yeah. So they only got so much. So he does have only so much this year. If he still if you're still awake Dale in Australia you are doing, yeoman's work. Thank you. Or even the captain's work, whichever he performs. Is it starship? And here's the other thing. Now, what I was going through and flipping through on my, Roku YouTube app. You're looking for. Oh, what's it recommending for me?

I'm starting to see a bunch of Star Citizen stuff. I'm like, I do not play Star Citizen just because I know it does not mean I want to buy spaceships. Oh, yeah, well, that's because clearly Google isn't listening in on your conversations. No, not at all. They're not making that connection between us. No no no no no. Just like our watches. Like our dryers are not talking to each other. Dryers. They're not at all talking to each other. Stop drying.

Go. We don't piss them off. It'll be good content. Stop drying. Exactly. At least nothing has exploded into flames as of yet. Well, thankfully. Yeah, that's, that's the positive aspect to it, but that's why dryers are a little safer. Did you see that? one of the things Musk is being credited with, and I don't know if it's him or not, but it's certainly his company is they changed the gun emoji. Yeah. I saw you used to get back to a gun. I know I ever saw you post something.

Oh, wow. But you posted it. A dude named Ben named Ben. I think probably that's that's why you saw it. Yeah, right. I found people post to him. Yeah. You know. Right. I'm mostly peer at post animals, though. I mostly post like bears and cougars and things. But you don't like cougars. They're way too old. No, I mean, actual cougars. Not. Oh, that's that's cougars. That's different. I get it. Okay. Yeah, yeah, actual cougars are very cool. They're big city cats.

Do you have any in the home yet with the Or they fight with the snake? No. I've always wanted. No they would they would definitely fight with each other and and the snake would lose. But the cougar might suffer something as well. But I've always wanted to have either a bear or like a cougar pet. Because to me, it seems like the appropriate type of pet. Oh, of course, yeah, and people would come from miles around just to watch.

Well, and and people already don't come to my house because I have a 18ft snake, but man, if I had a bear, oh my God, nobody would come within miles of my house of the perfect. You're like, at least the snake they think is probably sleeping, so they're okay. They just don't want to walk in the house. But, yeah, I can understand that. Walking around the outside there is a very well there. There is there are some bear related YouTube channels that are really good.

one of them, which is a guy I think he's up in Vermont or Maine or something that has a black bear female that always visits his house with her cubs. And it's super cute. And, you know, she's a wild animal, not a trained pet bear. Anything just lives not too far away. And she's grown up and familiar that the guy is not dangerous and that there's bird food to be eaten there that's just cubs, hangs out for a little snack.

Yeah, but she always brings her cubs, and they're so damn cute when they're trying to climb around his porch and, you know, come up and smell his pants and stuff. And so all kids grow up and kill them. No, they're so cute when they're big. They're black. Bears are absolutely a reasonable size animal. They don't get past about 350 pounds. And, you know, they're they're about six feet standing on their hind legs. So they're they're not too big.

They're, they're about three feet when they're on their normal four legs. so they're real and they look just like the, the toy teddy bears, you know, they've they're kind of brownish black color with their big round ears and, look like little docile creatures. They are kind of docile creatures that have a lot more power and much bigger claws than you would think. But they're they act like very cute little critters. Like, as long as you feed me everything. Good. That's exactly right.

Just don't not feed them. Yes, because then you will become the food. Well, they don't have much of an attachment. They have an attachment to food. Yeah, you might say food. They absolutely have an attachment to food. I've always hypothesized, hypothesized that, you know, there is a potential for the next evolutionary dominant species to be bears. If bears had the intelligence of apes, they are by far the winners in their arms race.

And they they certainly have the capacity for the intelligence of an ape. They have a larger brain than we do. But, for whatever reason, the apes evolved. group dynamic skills, which led to language skills, which led to all kinds of other things much faster. And bears never really figured out fire. If bears figure out fire, the days of humans are numbered. Sounds very apocalyptic. We still have. We are in an election cycle. We we still have the guns. Gene.

If the bears could figure out how to use God's, then I. I would be in favor of doing a program to try and teach a bear how to use again. That's a YouTube channel I want to watch. Yeah. How would you watch that? Gene teaches Yogi Bear to go out. The whole thing is that gets within. They are have they? They're perfectly happy sitting in their ass and holding a gun with their hands. just like people. They're just like people now.

They don't have opposable thumbs, but they have two three inch claws that would fit perfectly, in, in position for pulling the trigger back. So you just got to get them to figure out how to aim. But I think it's it's very possible the bears are one of the most trainable animals back in the old country. You know, where people routinely have pet bears. they also had them in the circus. And the bears did amazing acrobatic work.

Yeah. Then they screwed Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey and said, no more animals. Well, did the treatment of animals in circuses is in any countries, usually not very good? That would be true. That's just the nature of a traveling show. It's, and, well, and frankly, it's the nature of putting animals to work. Yes. Captivity where they are not. Yeah, yeah. In their natural habitat, which, you know, I believe they are 15th. I think that would be totally natural for them.

they're I love the video of the rain getting and driving a golf cart perfectly following the road. I mean, to me it's like, dude, if in the rain, think and learn how to drive a golf cart. Yeah, they hit a three. How to drive a car. Oh, I think you can. You know, they have muscles that are, about three times more dense than humans. So even though they're shorter, they're about 100 pounds. And I think they ought to be able to whack that golf ball pretty well. No braces.

Penn of Penn and Teller say circus animals are the most pampered animals on Earth. Well, I think it depends on the circus, I think so I think that the terms of it, I think if they're referring to Siegfried and Roy, that's probably true. I think those are some of the most pampered animals. We go, oh, that went. And yet we know how that went. Even though they were pretty pampered. but they're still working. so like, if they were totally not working, if they just had pet tigers, right?

This had no requirement to do tricks, then I don't think there would have been an attack. I think the attack only happens when an animal doesn't feel like working, and the humans trying to get them to work. Yeah, you've seen a few of those videos of the people with the big cats as pets, but there's a lot of people, and especially in Russia, that have big cats and bears as pets, it's not an unusual thing, you know, very unusual for us here.

Well, it is, and we like in Texas, we have a lot of parks, you know, privately owned facilities that have exotic animals. anything from zebras, giraffes. How many zebras do you have in the backyard right now? I would love to have zebras. I actually, that's one of my favorite animals. And in terms of the, I think undervalued animals, a lot of people think zebras have a bad rap, or I think they have a bad rap. A lot of people think that zebras are nasty, but they're not.

I've never once been bitten by a zebra, and I have fed and petted zebras probably 20 times, and they have absolutely burned on the softest nose of any mammal. It is velvet. It feels like you're touching, a velvet rug. It is. Or, you know, velvet shoes or something. It's super, super soft. Gene's shoe fetish finally comes out an unrelenting. Yeah. The first time I mentioned the shoes in five years. Clearly a fetish. Yeah. Finally comes out. Hence, yeah. Finally surfaces.

but I do have to ask the question. How many animals have you been bitten or mauled by? Because you said zebras are one that never has? I want to know how many I've been. Animals have. Yeah, I've been bitten by one animal. I just want the worst. The worst type of animal imaginable, a Chihuahua. Maybe you can say the human female. No, it did my ankle and it hurt like hell. Yeah, those. Those dogs have no fear. And they are insane. And their teeth are like frickin needles, man. They're tiny.

Yeah. And so they literally like a normal dog. If they're biting you, they're not going to break skin. They're gonna. You're gonna feel it, right? It'll be painful, but they're not actually going to sink their teeth into you. The Chihuahua teeth are literally little needles. And they just go right in the skin and infect everything. And worst kind of animal out there as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah. My buddy Ron, God rest his soul, he had a little Chihuahua named Lola and that I did not want to be anywhere near that dog. I'm fine with German Shepherds. Yeah, yeah. Same here, same here. Big dog. No problem. Chihuahua? Nope. Not going there because they I mean, they bark. They want to, nip at you for whatever reason, nonstop. They're very much like. They like one person where a lot of dogs are, like, friendly with everybody.

Chihuahuas seem to like one person, and they want to screw everybody else. Pretty much. And they they completely are always fighting out of their weight class. I it took all the mental fortitude that I had to not step on this stupid thing. After a bit me kick it, that was my my natural reaction immediately I was like, what do you do if there's a rat that's trying to bite you, you step on it. Yeah, you get rid of it. This is basically a dog. They kind of look like an animal. Yeah.

They're not is a rat. They're not friends. You half dog? Mostly rat. Yeah. They're not cute looking animals. They're nasty. They're the nastiest animals. But. And, you know, like, I've gotten stung by bees, but very rarely. And it's not a I've never been stung by a bee or wasp. Oh, well that's good. I've tried to living. I actually cultivate wasp. Well, that's also how you keep people away from your house, if you ever did. See, it's funny. A huge nest right in front of your front door.

People are like, I have six nests. I have six wasp nests right on top of the front door. So people get to your door and they're like, I'll just see. They look up and they're like, oh shit. but I like was because they're a cleaner. They actually, clean the, insects outside, kind of like spiders do inside. Wasps do outside. They're, predatory animals. basically like bees. Then I wouldn't want wasps. No. Well, that would know. My whole system is. See, you got to.

I'm an environmentalist. I, I like living in harmony with nature, and so I, I like to have that natural balance be fulfilled by insects of the appropriate type and the ones that aren't the appropriate type. Well, I mean, I don't want fire ants in my bed now that you've had that too. I have had that more than once, unfortunately. So is that okay? I wasn't feeling fire ants or Chihuahua, which is worse? Chihuahua. Yeah, they me?
