Patrick Bet-David
Okay. All right. So we're officially back from New York. We landed 45 minutes ago. We came straight to the studio, got the notes, we're going live. We ate something small. We're about to make an announcement we've never done before. And that is something for you to be able to come join us on the podcast. One of you will come join us on the podcast. By the way, last week when we talked about the sweepstick of somebody going to the Yankees Dodgers game with us, he was there yesterday. We have his video. The story. It's the wildest story of how he ended up there. Seriously, Absolutely insane. And then later on, when we're about to go down the elevator, we run to another fellow. The people at Yankees, they treated us royally. Except for, you know, the three errors and the catch.
- [02:06]
Vinny
Whatever, whatever you know.
- [02:08]
Patrick Bet-David
And what? Who's counting that?
- [02:09]
Tom
Ball fans are good players.
- [02:11]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, it was a weird story. Anyways, today's a 500 episode stories to go through. Apparently some of you that are watching this podcast, you're garbage. I didn't say that. Apparently trash. Not just a regular guy saying it, not a comedian saying it's not a pundit saying it. The current president calling half of America garbage. Which I don't know how that sits with you, but you know, Karine Jean Pierre had some thoughts on it. You have Josh Shapiro had some thoughts on it. You have Trump that actually wanted to know what it would be like to go do the job and he didn't want to take his vest off. It's a great story. We'll get into that. Whoopi Goldberg said some stuff about deplorables on what Hillary said and she said she was probably right when she said that JD Vance is on Rogan. They did. They shot it yesterday, I think four hours. JD had the best line. He said, I've been, I've done more interviews in my one podcast with Rogan than Kamala's done. Everybody combined. It's a pretty good line right there. Actress Justine Bateman says Gavin Newsom is the worst governor we've ever had in California. Jimmy Kimmel's 19 minute anti Trump ran backfires with viewers. Russia finds Google two and a half decillion dollars. I don't even know how to pronounce that word. Rob, how many zeros is that? 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 30. Literally 35 zeros after two and a half is how much Russia sued Google. We'll talk about that. Truth Social apparently, according to this article, the market cap to Truth Social is officially hired an X. It's pretty wild. Adam lost his mind when he heard about the story on the plane. He almost literally, he lost it when he heard it. Gas prices dropping across the United States. National average likely to fall below $3. More Americans living paycheck to paycheck than five years ago. Bank of America data shows Elon Musk buys Texas compound for his children. Their mother's report, not their mother's report. For his children and their mothers. That's the report. Chinese EV maker BYD beats Tesla in quarterly revenue for the first time as net profits jumps. More stuff with Diddy. Man, Diddy had dirt on half of Hollywood. Panicky celebrities are praying he keeps his mouth shut. Imagine the amount of power Diddy has with all those stories. And then do you keep waking up at 3am if you do, Guru reveals how to beat that issue. So stick around for that. And ex Google CEO Schmidt urges US army to replace tanks with drones. And then last but not least, Pentagon chief reveals photo of large UFO mothership near US Embassy. I got a couple clips I'm going to want to show you. One from CNN and a few other things that's taking place. A comment that Mark Cuban made about Trump not having strong women around. I actually really want to get the commentary of the guys here and what many people will say but there's two CTAs for today, guys, that I'm going to give you one. This is the official last one we'll do from this series. You asked for a blue one. Navy blue USA hat is here. However, this hat that we have here is numbered. This is numbered out of 250, there's only 250 to these guys. And one of you guys that gets number 47. Only 47 will have the number 2024 here because 47, 47, 2024, President 47. One of you will get it. These limited edition hats will go. They're the numbered ones. Anytime we have numbered, they go in 30 minutes. The other day we sent an email to our insiders who are with us at Bed David Consulting saying we have five Yankees tickets. Within 30 minutes, nine were picked up and the level of everyone's calling saying, can I get one? It's too late. We already sold out. We're moving on. However, these hats, especially those of you guys that may be coming this Tuesday night with us or for you the rest of the year to represent the USA future Looks bright hats. The limited edition ones go to vt merch.com place an order. Maybe one for you, one for your spouse, one for your coworker, one for your best friends, and a great Christmas gift for anyone you know that loves America. Go place this order. Having said that, let's get right into it. News Nation. Chris Cuomo had a town hall. On that town hall, they have Mark Cuban, they had Stephen A. Smith, they had Bill O'Reilly, Dana White tuned in Zoom, they had a bunch of different guys. And one of the comments Mark Cuban made and I want to get right into it, Mark Cuban on that. Rob, I don't know if Vinnie send it to you or not. If you haven't sent it to him, if you can text it to him. Mark Cuban, I believe, makes a comment about the fact that Trump doesn't have any strong women around him. What do you mean? He says, if you notice Trump doesn't have any strong women. So many people reacted to it to the point where the View came out. And you know what? That's the one. Rob. You know what the View said? The View came out and said, how about Stormy Daniels? Yeah, she's strong. Is this the one, Rob?
- [07:30]
Vinny
Yep, I believe so.
- [07:31]
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, so maybe he was on the View. Then he went on the News Nation one. But Rob, he's on the View saying to women that Trump doesn't have any strong woman around him. Go and play this clip.
- [07:42]
Tom
Yeah, I mean, yes. Over the edge with Nikki Haley supporters. Yeah. I mean, yes, it'll put her over.
- [07:49]
Patrick Bet-David
The edge with Nikki Haley supporters. Donald Trump.
- [07:52]
Tom
You never see him around strong, intelligent women, ever.
- [07:56]
Patrick Bet-David
It's just that simple.
- [07:57]
Tom
They're intimidating to him. He doesn't like to be challenged by them. And, you know, Nikki Haley will call him on his nonsense with reproductive rights and how he sees and treats and talks about women. I mean, he just can't have her around.
- [08:11]
Patrick Bet-David
It wouldn't work.
- [08:12]
Tom
I think Stormy is intelligent. I don't think that's 100%.
- [08:15]
Patrick Bet-David
She's very smart. Yeah, Stormy.
- [08:17]
Vinny
He means it's like on stage.
- [08:20]
Tom
Yes.
- [08:23]
Vinny
Stormy, smart.
- [08:24]
Patrick Bet-David
Your thoughts, Tom?
- [08:26]
Tom
Well, I think Mark Cuban needs to think before opening his mouth because he's being so spontaneous with stuff. I really think he's not thinking over. He's not a dumb guy, but. Kellyanne Conway on staff. That's a pretty strong woman. Tulsi Gabbard, who's been with the campaign for weeks now, campaigning with him. That's a pretty strong woman. I don't know what Mark was trying to accomplish with. With this comment. Maybe he's trying to audition to put on the Rachel Maddow glasses and maybe be the permanent host of the View. But I just find this to be. I mean, what's. Points he's trying to make. One week Mark says things like, and Mark, if you're watching, I got a lot of respect for you as an MBA owner and the stuff you've accomplished in business, but one week you're saying, oh, let's talk about policies. Let's not just do this and this, and the next week you're making comments like this that are completely away from policy at a time where you're insulting half of the voting bloc and you're getting into things like, you gotta pay attention to the people that are around Trump. I don't. I don't know what you're trying to accomplish. And I think you're being spontaneous. I don't think you really engaged on that. Because we could make a list of people that have been advisors and on cabinet positions and things like that.
- [09:37]
Adam
I can just think of one that's been around our world with Trump, and that's Alina Haba, his attorney, who's been around us, and she is strong, capable, classy, all the above. So I think if I'm up at.
- [09:50]
Tom
Creek, Alina's my first call.
- [09:52]
Adam
She's awesome. She's a tough, sticky flicker. Who was there? The real housewife that threw the event. We were at. But I think it's a little rich for Mark who I think dealt with a lot of issues within the Dallas Mavericks. Some, some me too movement stuff going on there. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but.
- [10:09]
Tom
A general manager censured by the NBA. Yeah, maybe so.
- [10:14]
Adam
He who has not sinned. May they cast the first can you.
- [10:18]
Tom
Pour if you live in a glass house.
- [10:20]
Patrick Bet-David
So here's mark Cuban donating $10 million to charity after NBA found workplace misconduct six years ago. Go ahead and go down, Rob.
- [10:28]
Vinny
That makes it go away.
- [10:29]
Patrick Bet-David
NBA has reported complete investigation Dallas Mavericks on allegations of hostile working on sexual harassment domestic violence Mark Human will domain $10 million to organizations that promote women and leadership roles and combat domestic violence after the NBA found serious workplace for conducting by former current employees and improper unfruitful. Okay, great. No problem. By the way, can you do me a favor, Rob and go to the Guardian article that talks about. For 75% of the time the Dallas Mavericks have been the widest team in the NBA. If you go mavs whitest team in the NBA. And remember this is a Democrat so it's not like he's a Republican and they're going after him. Yeah, no, I went and interviewed him. He only had pictures of Clintons on the wall and I think he had pictures of two Democratic presidents on. We didn't have pictures of anybody else. The Dallas Mavericks are consistently white in a black league. Why go a little low, Rob? Okay. In 2020, the NBA was 74.2% black and 16.9% white. It seems very every decade the white NBA players become less relevant. Yet one franchise has kept one franchise has often kept a dream of mediocre white guys alive. The Dallas Mavericks. In 15 of the last 21 seasons, there were three or more white players in the 12 man roster. In more than half of those 15 seasons, there were at least four white players, not to mention at least two starting white players. Now here's the thing. Why am I showing this while he's going through these stories that they pop up. Okay. While they're going through the black lives matter. Although the Mavericks have a dubious history of toxic workplace culture when it comes to female employees, Cuban has thrown his support behind who black lives matter and has appointed who black CEO Cynthia Marshall president t head coaches Jason Kid Avery Johnson general manager Nico Harrison during his lifetime in Dallas. Right now the CEO of Dallas Mavericks. Rob, if you can google it, I believe it's Cynthia Marshall. If he hasn't replaced them yet. So why, why am I showing this I'm showing this because he was forced to make these hires. After all, the NBA realized for 15 out of 20 seasons he had the widest team. So the guy that says he's for blacks in a league that's 70 plus percent black in a league that he is the whitest team owner for 20 plus years almost, and then gives 10 million because he's worried, then he goes hire somebody out of fear. Black president, female, just to pander to his audience. Mark, there are certain topics you don't have a lot of credibility to speak on. This is one of them. Speak on things you have credibility on. This is how much credibility you have on this topic. And when you talk about stuff like that, your history comes up and we have to talk about it.
- [13:16]
Vinny
Vinny, eloquently put.
- [13:19]
Patrick Bet-David
Pat.
- [13:19]
Vinny
That's I'll say the least because like, here's my thing in Hollywood, when you know, stand up and acting and when you get a publicist, they put you out there, Tom. They put you on red carpet events. They put you where the camera is going to be, where you're out there. And Adam, people are taking photos. What is Mark Cuban's goal? What, what publicity coming in this late and being everywhere. He's everywhere he wants to talk. Just doing the sticking up for Kamala Harris and Kamala Harris as the savior routine. I don't see that. The only thing I would see is what trying to get people from the Democratic Party in 2028 to kind of like him. He has no idea what the hell he's talking about. And this is, this is what this party is about. Okay. Three days ago, Tim Walz called half of America Nazis. Okay? Joe Biden the other day called us all garbage. And then this is the attitude. No strong women around him. What about his ex? What about Ivana? And what about Ivanka? What about. You mentioned Kelly, Kelly Kenway.
- [14:10]
Patrick Bet-David
Right.
- [14:10]
Vinny
What about Kylie McEnany? What about Sarah Huckabee Sanders? This is just, he just needs to stop. Like, he just. Nothing that he's saying is making sense. And I think we talked about a couple weeks ago, it was, hey, no attention is on me. All the billionaires are getting attention, but not me. So I'm going to say the most outlandish shit ever. And I think that was. I'm happy that you put that up there.
- [14:28]
Patrick Bet-David
What?
- [14:28]
Vinny
Because you're sec. You're accused of sexually harassing and being aggressive towards women. So you give $10 million to teach other people to learn how to be cool around women. It's Ridiculous.
- [14:37]
Tom
What happens to Mark next? When you take a stance like this, you have to live with the consequence. If you back up somebody, you do whatever. It's like in the NFL, there were people that backed up Ray Rice, and they were very, very upset. And then they were embarrassed, and they even backed it up when the film came out in the ELE and they had to say, you know what? I believe Ray, but, you know, you can't do that, Ray. And these are people that backed him up. They got embarrassed, and they had to properly tell espn, you know, he's my friend. I believed him. I was supporting him. But that film is irrefutable. Where does Mark go after all this? It feels like, you know, I don't want to say it, but I'm going to say it. It's almost like, why is he doing this? Is he kind of being pushed to be like this super proxy, super supporter? And what does he do after it's done? Does he not know that 50% of the, as Michael Jordan said, Republicans buy sneakers, too? I mean, he owns the Mavericks. He's got things going on. And although he sold some, made a lot of money, he still is the principal owner. He made sure of that in the transaction. So where do you go now? It's like he's. He's impacting his own, you know, reputation here. And, you know, it's. It's kind of. It's kind of shocking to see because he's not a dumb guy. He knows what she's standing for. I want to know what. What gun is to his head or what has got him so revved up that he thinks it's time to go out.
- [15:54]
Patrick Bet-David
We already know about that. All I'm saying is in a situation like this where you're talking, you're talking, you're talking, you're talking, you're talking. Then you say something like this. Do you know what this does? You know what this does? Here's what it does, Mark. Now Trump's going to go on stage and he's. He's going to look at all the women that are around him, and he's going to say, you just called this person not strong, that person not strong. This person not strong, that person not. You just insulted every single woman who supports him. I mean, this may be as worse as president calling people supporting Trump garbage. It may be that close. A comedian says Puerto Rico. That's a comedian. The president says garbage. But Mark Cuban says he doesn't have any strong women. If I was part of the marketing campaign, behind closers. I'd sit there and say, guys, are you kidding me? Rally behind this whole thing. They don't respect you anyways. By the way, as if that wasn't enough, this is the current. This is our president. Your president. If you live in America legally, and for some of you that live in America illegally, he's still your president. Here's what he just had to say. About half of America. Go ahead, Rob.
- [17:13]
Tom
Or Puerto Rico, where I'm in my home state of Delaware. They're good, decent, honorable people. The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. His demonization is unconscionable and it's un American.
- [17:28]
Patrick Bet-David
Thoughts on this time when you hear him calling folks garbage.
- [17:32]
Tom
Well, this really disappointed me on a lot of levels because you don't. As a president of the United States, there's a line of dignity. You are the president of everyone, of we the people. And to have the president make a comment like this crosses the line of the personal attacks back and forth against your opponent in the political arena. Now you're stepping over to call 53% of the people you govern, if the polls are correct, maybe higher. Garbage. This is an embarrassment to the office of the presidency. You can't do that.
- [18:13]
Adam
It's.
- [18:13]
Tom
This is beyond the pale of even the smeared, ugly rules of political engagement during an election.
- [18:22]
Vinny
Pat. Not surprised at all. And I just mentioned a little bit earlier, Tom, this is how they feel about us, plain and simple. It started with Hillary with her ignorant ass. We're deplorables. Comment. He thinks that we're garbage. Mark Cuban thinks all these women around Trump are weak and stupid. And it's like, enough is enough. It's like, how much of this crap are we going to take that they keep talking this shit about us? And by the way, you think Biden is just holding up on that? Everything is coming. All of his true colors are showing up. What happened yesterday? Pbd. He's putting infants toes and like, no, I'm not trying to be funny. He shoved them a stranger's kids. And they're offering his kids to him. In his mouth three times. He's biting another kid's.
- [19:04]
Patrick Bet-David
Is this the one you're talking about?
- [19:05]
Vinny
Yeah. Like, yeah. How. Explain to me how this is normal.
- [19:09]
Patrick Bet-David
Go ahead.
- [19:10]
Vinny
I don't care if he's the president. Like, what the. What is he doing? Two. He's deep. What. Listen, let me bro that. It's almost as if the, the. His handlers are like, you know what the. The, the election is in a Couple days. Just let him do whatever he wants to do because that's who he is. Pbd. And going back to the garbage. This is what they think of us. They actually think that we're stupid. They think we're trash. They think we're deplorables. And it's enough is enough. That whole, that whole rhetoric, Nazis, we're following Hitler. Like, enough is. When are we going to say, guys.
- [19:46]
Adam
This is Whoopi Goldberg on the View.
- [19:49]
Tom
Where she says that Hillary Clinton was right, that Trump supporters are deplorable. This is in response to the garbage comment.
- [19:55]
Patrick Bet-David
Play the clip.
- [19:56]
Tom
Double down. There is a completely unfair standard with Donald Trump.
- [20:01]
Patrick Bet-David
No, I'm saying there's an unfair standard.
- [20:03]
Tom
Where his supporters have just decided it's baked in when he insults people. But they do take offense. Deplorables did matter. That comment from Hillary Clinton did matter.
- [20:10]
Vinny
But I would say that she was.
- [20:11]
Patrick Bet-David
Joe Biden is still the president. I'd like him to be working on getting the hostage. Wow. By the way, how. How did Karen Jean Pierre handle this? And I'll come to you. What did she say? I'm curious to know how she maneuvered around. Yeah, go ahead.
- [20:26]
Tom
Just address the president's comments yesterday referring to Trump supporter as garbage and couple of things. So just to clarify, he was not calling Trump supporters garbage. The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters, which is why he put out. This is why he wanted to make sure that we put out a statement.
- [20:48]
Patrick Bet-David
That clarified what he meant and what.
- [20:51]
Tom
He was trying to say. The only garbage I see floating out.
- [20:54]
Adam
There is his supporters.
- [20:55]
Tom
And so just want to make that very clear for folks who are watching.
- [20:58]
Patrick Bet-David
And I'll.
- [20:59]
Tom
And I just want to read that out to folks. So he was.
- [21:03]
Patrick Bet-David
Regarding to the comedian. And I quote, I refer to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by.
- [21:11]
Tom
Trump's supporter at his Madison Square Garden.
- [21:14]
Adam
Rally as garbage, which is the only.
- [21:17]
Patrick Bet-David
Word I can think of to describe it. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I meant to say. The comments, the comments, comments at the.
- [21:27]
Tom
Rally don't reflect who we are as a nation.
- [21:31]
Patrick Bet-David
And to your question, your other question.
- [21:33]
Tom
That you asked, no, he does not view Trump supporters or anybody supports Trump as garbage.
- [21:40]
Patrick Bet-David
That is not what candidate that Kamala should have chosen as a vp. Josh Shapiro, what does Josh Shapiro say about this route? Do you have the clip of what Josh Shapiro said about this while he's finding it? Adam, go ahead. Sure.
- [21:50]
Adam
I mean, what we hear so much talk about what's going to be the October surprise this time around. And we're how many days away from an election? Five days. And they were getting close to, quote, unquote, having an October surprise. They did the Madison Square Garden, quote, unquote, Nazi rally where we just happened to be thousands of blacks, Jews, Latinos, women. It's just almost farcical. And then this Tony Hinchcliffe guy, who we know very well, comes on stage, a comedian, makes a joke, fell flat. All good. It's not like Trump said it or even that Trump believes it. And just when you're thinking maybe this Puerto Rican floating garbage thing turns out to be an October surprise, there's Joe Biden, who they've been sort of hiding. He comes out and literally calls Trump supporters garbage. Clip that. And it just has backfired dramatically. And here's someone like Josh Shapiro who is a governor of a very purple state that can be flipped either way, that has to govern the entire state. I'm assuming he's having seen this.
- [22:52]
Patrick Bet-David
I'm assuming he says yes.
- [22:54]
Adam
I'm assuming he says something to the effect.
- [22:56]
Patrick Bet-David
What he says, Adam, I can't really condone.
- [22:58]
Tom
Purple is right. Purple is right.
- [23:02]
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, we can't hear it right now. I want you to listen to something.
- [23:09]
Tom
That is making the rounds right now, certainly by the Trump campaign, by Senator J.D. vance and others, what President Biden had to say about this tonight. And just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage. The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. His demonization is unconscionable and it's un American. Yeah.
- [23:34]
Vinny
Governor, first off, just what's your response.
- [23:37]
Tom
To that comment from from President Biden where it sounds like he's calling Trump supporters they are garbage. Yeah, I had not heard that until now, Caitlin. So I'm kind of giving you my fresh reaction to it. I would never insult the good people of Pennsylvania or any Americans, even if they chose to support a candidate that I didn't support.
- [24:02]
Patrick Bet-David
I want you to listen to why he was the best candidate for the left. If there was a primary, he and Newsome would have been left to two at the end to compete as the nominee. And he would be formidable. And they screwed up. Tom.
- [24:17]
Tom
And I'll give you my quick read here. This is CNN producer in Caitlyn's ear telling her to ask the question. And they are giving Shapiro the opportunity to look good. And you know what's going on here. That, my friend, is one of CNN's first moves for 2028. There's no support for, for Biden. They brought up and actually ran the story a year ago they would have been ignoring the story of Biden. They would, they would have given a free pass. They wouldn't even covered it earlier this year when they're getting ready to make the shift for Kamala, they would have lightly touched on it to support the shift. I believe this is you are seeing here with this and other things on cnn. They are making Shapiro look good and there's little opportunities that are happening here because they need a draft pick for 2028 and everybody in that campaign know like them that the fear that they actually like them. Remember it was Hamas, Israel fear in the intra into intricacies of the positioning where they said Hamas is real too hot. Which way are we going? It doesn't matter. You can't go with Shapiro. Yeah, that was a mistake with Waltz.
- [25:22]
Adam
But it's like Bill Maher says all the time, you can hate on Trump but you can't hate his supporters because there's 80 million plus of them and they're called, they're going to backfire on you.
- [25:32]
Vinny
And that's why, that's why we keep talking about who, who is the, the DNC's chief strategists and political whatever they're doing with Kamal and all this, they're horrible because you nailed it. If they went with the Gavin and the Shapiro, that would be something that'd be an election that'd be, I'd be fearful like oh crap. Gavin Newsom and Tom, honestly, Gavin Newsom and him PBD against Trump and JD Vance. That's a battle. That's a fight.
- [25:53]
Patrick Bet-David
You know what I mean?
- [25:54]
Vinny
Right now we're noticing Kamala's, it's, it's.
- [25:57]
Patrick Bet-David
Over Shapiro, Trump's camp would say. Trump's camp would have said no, we'd still beat him. That's what the position would be because JD's really come up. I think JD is way better than Josh. I just think Josh is better than everybody else they got on the other side. That includes Newsom. Rob, so while this is going on, the president who's one of the greatest marketers of all time, what does he do? Here's what he does. Go ahead, Rob. How do you like my garbage truck?
- [26:20]
Tom
This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.
- [26:25]
Patrick Bet-David
It's funny by the way he's doing this. Then he goes and does this. Go ahead, Rob. Can you pause it, Rob? It's five Minutes. We're not going to play it at the end, he says. They were telling me, well, first play the first 30 seconds and I'll. We'll go to the last 30 seconds. Go ahead, Rob.
- [26:43]
Tom
When they. When he called us all garbage. How stupid. What a stupid word. That blows deplorable away, don't you think? Of course I thought irredeemable. When she said deplorable or irredeemable, I thought irredeemable was actually worse. But deplorable seemed to catch up. But this garbage stuff blows it away. So I'm in this beautiful plane. I'm enjoying myself. I have a wonderful suit on.
- [27:11]
Vinny
It's hilarious.
- [27:15]
Tom
And one of my people came in and said, sir, you know, the word garbage is the hottest thing right now out there. The hottest thing out there. Sir, would you like to drive a garbage truck?
- [27:32]

Patrick Bet-David
Edu Spotify.
- [28:08]
Vinny
I love that smile.
- [28:10]
Tom
Now we're about, you know, 30 minutes from landing. We had to do this pretty quick. I said, sort of cool, though, isn't it? Because, you know. And I said, you know, I think that's okay, but, you know, I don't feel comfortable wearing a suit. And they pulled up this garbage truck. I don't know how the hell they did it so fast. I have very capable people. They put a big sign in the truck.
- [28:31]
Patrick Bet-David
Did you see, by the way, go to the last 30 seconds left. He's surprised. That campaign. This is why he wore it. I may never wear a. No, no, no. Go back 15 seconds prior to that, because he's going to go, keep going. Back, back, back, back. Okay, right there. Watch what happens. Here's why he wore it. Go ahead. One compliment. Ah, he's just being so straight up and authentic. If you can pull it off, Ah, man, you have to hear it. It's so funny. So this last 45, right there. Go right there. Good, good. Leave it alone.
- [29:02]
Tom
People standing outside. I got all these people here. There's no way I'm wearing it on stage. They said, oh, okay, sir. I said, get me my jacket.
- [29:10]
Patrick Bet-David
But if you did watch this, you.
- [29:12]
Tom
Know, it actually makes you look thinner.
- [29:19]
Vinny
And they got me.
- [29:20]
Tom
I said, they got to wear it on stage.
- [29:25]
Patrick Bet-David
These are the moments.
- [29:27]
Vinny
It does make him less orange too.
- [29:30]
Tom
By getting back to the thing, isn't it interesting how our press secretary has become almost like, like a paid lobbyist. And it's like KGP is now the liar in chief, so. And now. But her expiration date is coming. Go get your book deal, sweetie, and go work for a liberal media outlet because that's the career path here. So she's not going to be going away. We're going to, she's, we're going to see her. We can turn the channel. But that's where it's going to, where it's going to go. And it's just the week the weakness. You don't even send the president to the microphone to repull his comments and to say, you know what, I shouldn't have said that. I should have said I should have backed off.
- [30:09]
Patrick Bet-David
Rob.
- [30:09]
Tom
There's no humility there. And this is why instead, KJP lies for him.
- [30:14]
Adam
This is why Trump is such a great marketer, because he knows his base. You know, one of the frames terms that they used for Trump was that he's the blue collar billionaire. It's like, what, what does that mean? We watched that movie, the man, you don't know, right? And they talked about how when he started in real estate, he wasn't just given hotels, he wasn't just given buildings, he had to actually go down there and build them. And he was meeting with the construction workers, meeting with the developers, working with the plumbers, working with these guys. Hands on. And to speak overall about politics, there's been a major shift really since Obama and Trump took over the Republican base. Now think about it is really blue collar rural workers and the Democrats are sort of college educated women of color, whereas 20 years ago, plus the Democrats were the unions. We've seen what's happened where the unions are basically not coming out supporting candidates anymore. This is a major shift. And Trump is kind of like, I'm going to go work at McDonald's today. All right, we're putting on a garbage truck. There was a, there's a funny meme that you showed at the World Series last night where there was Trump at McDonald's doing his little checkout thing at the drive thru and then taking out the garbage. And he goes, biden's economy so bad these days, the average guy has to have two jobs just to get ahead. It was really funny.
- [31:32]
Tom
And I know we should call it college indoctrinated now rather than college.
- [31:35]
Adam
There you go. There's a, he's the McDonald's handing out fries. He's the garbage man, but he's the blue collar billionaire. Whether you like Trump or don't like Trump, there's one thing you cannot take away from this guy. He's a marketing genius. Look at that guy. Even Van Jones, I said, was very complimentary of, of his marketing tactics. When you, when you, when you win over Van Jones, you're doing something right.
- [31:56]
Patrick Bet-David
There you go. All right. So that's that taking place. Now, Frank Luntz said this could be the deciding factor, my boy. Like what just happened right now, this could be the reason that it could flip. Rob, go ahead and play this clip. I'm sure those two CNN hosts love what Frank has to say. Go ahead, Rob.
- [32:14]
Tom
About Frank. Notably, they were done before President Biden made his comments, seemingly describing Trump supporters as, quote, garbage. The Harris campaign is trying to downplay the effect of those comments. Of course they are. But I wonder if you think that those comments are going to move voters. It's going to be huge because this is not some comedian saying something stupid and offensive at a rally where he should have been just basically disinvited. This is the President of the United States endorsing his vice president saying something. And I know that there's different interpretations about what he said. It's still inappropriate. You still shouldn't be doing it. And I've watched Trump already seize this. The basket of deplorables was significant, was meaningful in 2016, in 2024. I can promise you that this is going to drive Trump turnout. He's doing it already, I can see. I'm sure there's going to be ads on as soon as tonight about this. This may be a turning point for those final 3%.
- [33:24]
Adam
And that's all it is.
- [33:25]
Tom
Who still need to be persuaded. And I'll offer you guys something. We're going to be talking to them over the next couple of days. If you want to do something on Monday, the day before, focusing on these last persuadables, I will tell you that Trump offends them and they don't like him as a person. But Harris scares them because they don't know where she stands. And they feel that she hasn't been clear on some of the key issues, most notably immigration. Trump's got his weaknesses. Harris has her weaknesses, and they seem to be canceling each other out, which is why Harry's correct. This election is too close to call.
- [34:01]
Patrick Bet-David
There you go. And this is not a guy that wants Trump. He's not a Trump guy. No, he Went to CNN saying to some. Tom, what's your reaction with Frank? Do you agree with them?
- [34:08]
Tom
Well, yes, I do. I agree with Frank on that. Now, he has does a lot of qualitative research on the opinions. And so he's claiming that in his research. So guys, you got to remember he's talking about his research. He's saying that of the 3% undecided, Trump scares offends them. But for Kamala, she scares them. Which is worse, to be offended or to be scared? Somebody can offend you. You can be a person in a certain neighborhood and you're offended by the presence of the cops. But if those cops are defunded and they leave, your own neighborhood scares you. So when you look at scare, scare is worse than offended. And so this will move some voters, but what's moving the voters far more is economic fear and immigration fear. There's a.
- [35:02]
Patrick Bet-David
What do you have here?
- [35:03]
Tom
What's going on? These are three great clips from CNN's.
- [35:07]
Adam
Harry Eaton where he talks about the.
- [35:11]
Tom
Writing on the wall for.
- [35:12]
Patrick Bet-David
Is this new? This just came out. Show it. Let's see what it looks like. Let's see what it looks like. Particular point, it tracks much more with.
- [35:18]
Tom
When the incumbent party loses than with it wins. In fact, I went back through history. There isn't a single time in which.
- [35:24]
Patrick Bet-David
28% of the American public thinks the country is going on the right track.
- [35:28]
Tom
In which the incumbent party actually won. They always lose.
- [35:31]
Patrick Bet-David
When just 28% never see an end.
- [35:34]
Tom
Country is on the right track. It is a heart. You are swimming upstream.
- [35:40]
Patrick Bet-David
He needs a shirt.
- [35:43]
Adam
Well, this was a. Wow. This was a.
- [35:45]
Patrick Bet-David
What's this one, Rob?
- [35:46]
Tom
This is another good clip.
- [35:47]
Patrick Bet-David
Go for it. Republican succeeded Harry S. Truman.
- [35:50]
Tom
So the bottom line is for Kamala.
- [35:52]
Patrick Bet-David
Harris to win, she'd have to break.
- [35:53]
Tom
History, be a Democrat to succeed Joe Biden when Biden's approval rating is way underwater at this point, it could happen.
- [36:00]
Vinny
It just doesn't in, you know, in.
- [36:02]
Tom
Recent history for sure. Okay, registration numbers here. Yeah.
- [36:05]
Patrick Bet-David
Republican, you got another one or no.
- [36:08]
Tom
Clip if you want. This is the amount I want to.
- [36:10]
Patrick Bet-David
See all of them. Show me this one as well.
- [36:11]
Vinny
I love clips. Rob, give it to us.
- [36:13]
Tom
Yeah. This shows voter excitement, registering voters in big, huge numbers.
- [36:19]
Patrick Bet-David
They have been gaining in party registration versus the Democrats in the swing states with party registration.
- [36:24]
Tom
We're talking Arizona.
- [36:25]
Patrick Bet-David
I think it's a five point.
- [36:26]
Tom
They've expanded their lead from five points from where it was back in 2020. How about Nevada?
- [36:31]
Patrick Bet-David
Big Republican registrations there.
- [36:32]
Tom
They like the early vote. How about North Carolina?
- [36:34]
Patrick Bet-David
Big Republican registration gains.
- [36:36]
Tom
How about Pennsylvania?
- [36:37]
Patrick Bet-David
We spoke about it before a few months ago. Big Republican Party registration gains versus where from where they were four years ago.
- [36:44]
Tom
So Republicans are putting more Republicans in the electorate. The Democratic number versus the Republican number has shrunk. And so the bottom line is if.
- [36:52]
Patrick Bet-David
Republicans win come next week, Donald Trump wins comes next week, the signs all.
- [36:57]
Tom
Along will have been obvious. We would look at the right direction.
- [37:00]
Patrick Bet-David
Being very low, Joe Biden's approval rating being very low and Republicans really registering numbers.
- [37:05]
Tom
You can't say you weren't warned. Again, these, this is the data which supports the idea of a Trump victory. Do you viewer I agree with all of this. We've been poring over the same numbers. You can find it at VTNews AI, we've got the United States up there. You can go, you know, make your own picks and stuff. But what we're looking at is these same numbers, Pat. And we're seeing there's three things to think about here. One is voter excitement. Voter excitement. We're getting voter excitement on the, on the registration.
- [37:38]
Patrick Bet-David
Voters are excited.
- [37:39]
Tom
Yep.
- [37:40]
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, tell us.
- [37:42]
Tom
Voters are very excited. They are excited about what's going on with, you know, with, in terms of getting out to register. That shows you how excited that the unregistration voter has been, number one. Number two, you can see that in the early voting there's been more Republicans registered people voting in these key states. That doesn't usually happen. The early voting is usually dominated by Democrats over the last four presidential campaigns. Now it's even or ahead for Republicans. And Republicans have long dominated live in person turnout. And so and then the third thing is exactly what he's talking about is those few funny stats like if stock market's up or this is that and that they talk about those stats that no president's ever won. Let me tell you the one, the ones that haven't won is the Democrats haven't won. When you have the approval rating or people think the place is on the wrong track.
- [38:30]
Patrick Bet-David
Let me tell you what we're doing. For the first time, we want you to come join us on the podcast either here or zoom in 15, 20 minutes to give us your thoughts. Except you have to get something right. Here's what it is. Number one, this is the contest. Go to VTNews AI when you go to VTNews AI Rob, if you can just go there. If you go to VTNews AI, go to the election side to the right. Just think about picking March Madness does what? Picking the brackets, right? You go in to VTNews AI, you see Zoom in right there, Rob, where you get to pick in like pick whatever the states are red, blue and with the numbers change on the top. Right, Rob, so they can see it. Go right there, you see how the numbers are changing. You pick your bracket, whatever way you think it's going to end up being on election night. Okay, Once you pick your numbers, you see right above it where it says upgrade. To submit your prediction, you click on that. Go for it. You have to become a Premium or a VT Insider, either one of them. Choose 4.99amonth or 19.99amonth. That's going to give you unlimited access to the AI. Whichever one you choose to do, we will receive your bracket prediction. Whoever is the first to do so that wins. We're either going to invite you on a Zoom to be on a podcast with us after everything is done with and you'll be here with the boys on PBD podcast or if you choose to get your flight, come on down. You'll be with us. You're sitting right next to us telling us how you came to the conclusion of your perfect bracket. But again, to compete, go to VT News, go get one of these memberships, choose your brackets, how you think it's going to end and then once you do so, we'll have it. And by the way, if you're that confident enough, post it on Twitter under my handle so we can save it there as well. Anyways, Adam, I think you were going to say something about.
- [40:15]
Adam
Yeah, I was going to just get.
- [40:17]
Patrick Bet-David
Some of these things we're looking at.
- [40:18]
Adam
Look, I think this was a massive, massive mistake by the. I'll just say Biden Harris Walls campaign because if you we talk about this concept of a October surprise, think about the last three election cycles. 2016, Hillary's emails with James Comey could have cost her the election. Possibly did cost her the election. 2020, Hunter Biden, the laptop. What happened there? What happened possibly cost Trump the election. 2024, the October surprise is this Puerto Rico garbage thing. I mean, a non issue compared to those two other things. But what's the famous quote? I think it's attributed to Napoleon. Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake. The Trump camp made a mistake having Tony Hinchliffe come on stage and insult the Puerto Rican shout out to my barricas out there. And then Biden goes, yeah, well, you know who's garbage? All Trump supporters.
- [41:13]
Patrick Bet-David
Whoa.
- [41:13]
Adam
So failed opportunity made A mistake. Interrupted the enemy while they're making a mistake. So Trump, being opportunistic, says, oh, yeah, let me capitalize on this. Throw on a little garbage man uniform. Get my little truck.
- [41:26]
Tom
Honk, honk.
- [41:26]
Adam
Look at us now. And unless something massive comes out in the next, you know, three to five days, this October surprise has felt exponentially.
- [41:34]
Vinny
You know, what someone could say, Tom, I think we have touched on this before. It's almost as if Biden, since he had to step down, AKA whatever the coup you want to call it. Is it just me, Tommy, or has he just been slowly just hurting the campaign, Hurting Kamala, making comments. He went up in front of the White House press briefing for the first time. They all gasped. They're like, he showed up while Kamala was speaking. And then he says his garbage comment. He's at that funeral where he's telling, he's looking right at Obama and he's like, pissed off. He's like, I was stronger. I was stronger. What is that, Tom?
- [42:09]
Tom
It says you were talking about. It's almost like having a passive aggressive ex girlfriend that she, she still goes to the same college you do in classes or you work at the same company or whatever. And you've got this passive aggressive behavior even though you both broke up and you said, okay, we're going to be cool with each other.
- [42:25]
Patrick Bet-David
Exactly.
- [42:25]
Tom
I don't want to say anything to your friends.
- [42:26]
Vinny
Exactly.
- [42:27]
Tom
We just, you know, no need for gunfire.
- [42:30]
Vinny
No. And I get it. And I think if you, if you really, somebody could take that angle. That he is purposely. Yes, he's gone. And yeah, he's shoving kids, feet in his mouth, but I think there's still, the man that's still in there is upset that they screwed his ass over. So he's like, if I'm going down, I'm taking the whole ship with me. That's what he's doing.
- [42:48]
Adam
I think you're, you're, you're kind of onto something. I don't think it's intentional whatsoever. I think he's, obviously would love to be the person running. The reality is his numbers were atrocious after that despicable, horrible, deplorable debate performance against Trump. But have you, have we seen a weaker incumbent? Meaning they don't want him around. They're not putting him on the campaign trail. And even when he sort of speaks, it's like another foot in your mouth to use that baby joke out there. And he's just, as a candidate, done less to help his VP or the next potential President try to win the White House. They're just basically like, Joe, you've got maybe like five more days of being the sitting president until Trump most likely wins. So.
- [43:31]
Vinny
Well, I'm pretty sure.
- [43:32]
Adam
Just don't lose this for. He's like, I'll do my best, but this.
- [43:36]
Vinny
And listen to Frank Lunz. This thing, the garbage comment is going to basically take them home. It's going to cross the finish line. I don't think it's on purpose because Adam, to me, it looked like while he was sitting there, Tom, he was reading something. If you looked at Biden's eyes, he wasn't just off the cuff, he's reading something.
- [43:51]
Patrick Bet-David
Let me ask you, you're saying this because partly you also want this, just like the left is saying Tony Hinchcloth because the left wants it, right? Who's right? Which one actually carries more weight? You think there's a massive difference between this versus what Hinchcliffe said about Puerto Rico?
- [44:06]
Tom
I think it's much bigger. We have the pres. We have a precedent here. And the precedent Luntz pointed out that the deplorables comment coming from Hillary, who was. She was an elected official there. She wasn't a comedian invited for the event. I think America knows. And some of them were really offended that they hired a comedian that said that. And I could see independents saying, man, I'm a little shocked here that this comedian they brought in said that. And I think, Pat, it is different. And I think it does make a difference when the President says it. It made a difference. Apparently, looking back into polls that Frank Luntz and others have looked at, and everyone has long said that the deplorable comment made a difference in that election because of who it came from, not what was said.
- [44:51]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, I mean, listen, the president cannot say it. Obviously. We're going to watch very closely to see what happens here. Today is what today is Thursday. You realize it's Halloween five days left, right? Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, God willing, five days. We have a new president.
- [45:07]
Vinny
Wow.
- [45:07]
Patrick Bet-David
Regardless, we have a new. Regard me. Regard me. We have a new president, Right. Whether it's Kamala or Trump, we have a new president. And that's some serious stuff, folks. Anyways, all right, let's go to the next door here. Let's go to next door here. I wonder what this is all about, Tom, and I'm coming straight up to you. Russia sues Google. Not sues, finds Google. Rob, I want you to show this to the audience with the number of zeros you've never seen a bigger fine than this. Think about the ticket you got. I've had 21 speeding tickets. Biggest one say $1,000, $2,000 say you got sued, you have to pay $50,000, $100,000, a million dollars. Russia suits. Go to the article, Rob, just go to. Independent Russia sues finds Google 2.5 decillion. That's two and a half trillion trillion trillion dollars is what Russia does.
- [46:08]
Vinny
That doesn't make sense.
- [46:10]
Patrick Bet-David
Well, you know, we're going to see if it does or not. Let me read it to you. A Russian court has fined Google an unprecedented two and a half decillion dollars for allegedly blocking pro Kremlin YouTube content, a figure doubling weekly under Russia law since an initial 2025 of 100,000 rubles following lawsuits from state affiliated media outlets, SAR Grant and Rio Fan. Since March 2022, Google has restricted ad services in Russia, ceased creating new accounts and deactivated AdSense accounts, prompting Russian authorities to seize Google's bank accounts, leading Google's Russian subsidiaries to file bankruptcy. Despite these actions, Google free services like YouTube and search remain accessible in Russia. Google acknowledged ongoing legal issues with Russia in its latest report, stating we do not believe those ongoing legal matters will have a material adverse effect. And Alphabet shares rose over 5% after beating third quarter earnings expectation. Tom, what's this story all about?
- [47:12]
Tom
OK, so never, never, never be late on your credit card payment in Russia. That's what this means. So in March 2022, you know, Google's been restricting these services, but in 2020 they had a fine of 100,000 rubles. And Rob, I don't know how much that is in dollars. I think it can't be more than what, $5,000 or something. So a basic court finds, you know, Google in 2020, 100,000 rubles, except it will double every week. Now that's a very significant late charge. It will double every week. So this has been doubling every week since 2020. And 100,000 became 2000-004000-00800,001.6, 3.2, 6.4. And it gets carried away to a point that the fine now is more than all the money ever printed in the entire history of the world. So that's what's happened. So Vinnie, if you do get an opportunity, buy that townhouse the next year or something, don't get a mortgage from a Russian bank and be late on your mortgage, okay? Because you, because you could own them three times the amount of your house. It's just, it's just funny. This is what it's really all about.
- [48:26]
Patrick Bet-David
Is there any credibility in this?
- [48:28]
Tom
No, what's happened is it's been doubling and Google has been using their lawyers to say, yeah, man, we want to appeal this. You want to talk about this? They're like, okay, we can try and do that, but we're going to double it again. Double it again, double it again. So they basically keep doubling the fine and it's sitting there becoming this astronomical number. But Google needs to be concerned because the government is going to come down and say, hey man, you do have to pay a fine here, otherwise we're not going to let you back in. So when Trump is elected, assuming he's elected, you know, it's going to be. Google's going to be calling Trump saying, hey, we got to figure out this court thing. And Russell is going to be like, well, we want some money, man. You're paying 5 billion. How much was Apple's fine, multibillion dollars to the EU Commerce Group? You know, Russia, I think is going to do the same thing. I think Google's going to write a check here. Is it going to be 2.5 decillion or trillion? Trillion? No, they don't have.
- [49:20]
Patrick Bet-David
Will it be a billion dollar check?
- [49:22]
Tom
I think it could be $1 billion check to get back into a very important market. I think this could be a billion dollar check because they, they, they are basically saying you were censoring information in our country. Only we can do that. Not you can do that.
- [49:37]
Vinny
Yeah, exactly.
- [49:38]
Tom
We're the only ones who can.
- [49:40]
Adam
So you actually think that Google is going to end up paying a fine here because who's the Google CEO? Sundar Pincha. Right. So I think it's for every one US Dollar, it's a thousand Russian rubles. But when they, when they. Since March 2022, Google has restricted ad services in Russia. Well, what happened in March of 2022? That's when Russia invaded Ukraine. So there's been so many, you know, tariffs put on Russia. Basically here it is right here, February of 22nd. Exactly. Russia invaded Ukraine. A major escalation of Russia.
- [50:16]
Tom
Ukrainian economic sanctions.
- [50:18]
Adam
Exactly. Economic sanctions out here. So I don't know, why would Google end up paying even any money to Russia for all the sanctions that are put on Russia? Is this just.
- [50:29]
Tom
No. Russia says they broke one of their laws and they put a fine out in the middle of them trying to negotiate it. Then the war breaks out and this keeps doubling. So the doubling is sort of comical, but there still is an open. There's an open action here and Google has to sort it out to go back to doing business in Russia. And if you don't think they want to do business in Russia when the smoke clears and they want to earn ad revenue and do all that, you're crazy. They absolutely need markets.
- [50:59]
Adam
Okay, let's see if Putin. Let's.
- [51:02]
Patrick Bet-David
So when it comes down to social media companies, Google, Facebook, any of these companies, if you're in a market, like the same challenge that Musk is having with Brazil or he's having, you know, challenges with Venezuela, Maduro, 10 days, nobody has access to X.
- [51:19]
Tom
Those are good examples.
- [51:20]
Patrick Bet-David
What standard must you follow? What standard must you, the platform follow? And who has more weight? Does the country get to say, you don't do this, we're shutting you down in our country? Can they do that?
- [51:32]
Tom
Well, that's, that's kind of what Brazil did. And then, and then Musk said, hey, in the name of free speech, I'm not going to be bullied into doing this or that. And there was a settlement. I don't think he came back on free speech. But there was a settlement there to get the market opened up.
- [51:48]
Adam
But there's no free speech.
- [51:49]
Patrick Bet-David
But here's a question. Who has more power tomorrow, Google or the country?
- [51:53]
Tom
Well, right now Google has more power over people to influence the country from the outside, like our U.S. department of Congress Secretary of State. But the people with power is the country. The country can turn it on and off.
- [52:09]
Patrick Bet-David
So why does Russia want Google in Russia?
- [52:15]
Tom
Because I would imagine that they are going to make money or tax on the Google commerce. Google isn't going to be able to go for free into Russia and collect billions of dollars of ad.
- [52:28]
Patrick Bet-David
But hear me out where I'm going with the state with this conversation. I'm not talking to you as if you work for Homeland Security and you have every single answer. I'm just openly talking to see what the motives are.
- [52:37]
Tom
You're asking the right question. Yeah.
- [52:38]
Patrick Bet-David
Do you think, do you think Russia wants Google in Russia as a way to be able to speak to the American audience and the world audience to paint themselves as the innocent good caring about their country people? Do you think they need Google in a way to rebuild their brand to the world, that they're not the villain?
- [52:59]
Tom
100%.
- [52:59]
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, so then, then that's great because.
- [53:01]
Tom
What that does is governments will try to manipulate social even as social is earning money off ads.
- [53:06]
Patrick Bet-David
Well, by the way, that's their job. They're supposed to do that. And you can call it manipulation the enemy will call it manipulation. Russia will call it persuasion. Okay. The enemy will call it gaslighting. We can say whatever Hamas is doing, whatever Hezbollah is doing, whatever Venezuela is doing, whatever, anything they're going to say, our incentive is what we're doing. Right?
- [53:28]
Tom
Yeah.
- [53:28]
Patrick Bet-David
Like, so there is.
- [53:29]
Tom
Russia will say it's Pravda, our truth.
- [53:32]
Patrick Bet-David
So all I'm saying is Russia needs Google. Russia needs Google.
- [53:37]
Tom
Absolutely.
- [53:38]
Patrick Bet-David
If Russia doesn't have access to Google, to YouTube, like, we have a channel. Rob, if you go to YouTube, type invite him in Russian. Okay. If you go to value taming Russian. Okay, tap in valuetainment Russian. And if you go to it. Right, go right there. How many subscribers does it have? 300, 2000. Go to one of our shorts. Go to one of our shorts and go to the latest one. Go to. Go to Popular. Go to Popular. Let's see what you have. What? That's reaction. No, no, no. Go to the fifth one to the right. That one right there. Press it. Let's hear it. You can go back. But the point is, you know, in this case, if Google says, fine, no problem. Russia comes back and says, no. What if Google plays hard? Can you find out how much adsense, how much money does Google make from Russia? Like what percentage of their revenue comes from Russia? Let's see how big this number is. I'm actually curious now. What is the revenue? Google gets Alphabet, right? So you have to put Alphabet.
- [55:00]
Adam
There it is.
- [55:01]
Tom
I found a chart.
- [55:02]
Patrick Bet-David
Can we see it?
- [55:03]
Tom
Oh, it dropped dramatically in 20 billion of Russian rubies.
- [55:07]
Patrick Bet-David
How much rubles is that in billions?
- [55:10]
Tom
But look, that's 2021 and then 2022.
- [55:13]
Patrick Bet-David
Wow. So 134 billion rubles.
- [55:15]
Tom
Rubles.
- [55:16]
Patrick Bet-David
And rubles is what, 1,000, 100,000. It's a billion. So it's a billion rubles. And 2021, it skyrocketed almost, you know, 60%. Can you find out what the revenue of Google and Russia is in 2023? Revenue, Google, Russia, 2023. I'm not curious what this number is. Russian 20 0. Because Google has stopped generating that country Google. That's exactly where I was going with this.
- [55:46]
Tom
Now this they did because the US Government said their sanctions, they had to do it.
- [55:50]
Patrick Bet-David
So. So let me read this. Terminating advertising sales, withdrawn internship offers. Restricting Google pay for sanction, removing over 7,000 YouTube channels. You can refusing GMS license. Domestic manufacturers massively blocking services for Russian companies. And I'm assuming this happening. Right? Okay, so that makes Google's local subsidiary in Russia was declared bankruptcy in 2020. Wow. Google also has fined 2 undecillion rubles which is probably 2 and a half decillion for refusing to restore accounts of Sephora. So that's Google has been able to find them pro criminals in run media. The finest larger than estimated total gdp. Google is unlike Google has been fined. This is the one they're talking about. Got it. And very, very interesting. So obviously this has to do with Ukraine and Russia and US took a Ukraine position so no one is surprised.
- [56:41]
Vinny
With this of course and they took out RT news, everything that was abstract because you know I would like to watch, I watch cnn, I watch Fox. They took down RT news right when all that started happening and then a billion rubles is 10,300,000American dollars.
- [56:56]
Adam
Pat, just a thought, tell me if I'm off base here, what's the total market cap of Google? Alphabet?
- [57:03]
Patrick Bet-David
A trillion and a half. It's.
- [57:04]
Adam
I think it's like $2 trillion if you want to just fact check that. So now I don't even know if Russia has a top 10 GDP in the world but I'm willing to bet that their market cap, Google's. What is it? Market cap 2.12 trillion. What do you think is more Russia's GDP or Google? I'm willing to bet that Russia's GDP is actually under Google. I'm thinking they're 1-819- GDP maybe 2 trillion. What are 2.18?
- [57:32]
Vinny
It's a little bit more.
- [57:33]
Adam
No, it's exactly the same.
- [57:34]
Vinny
No, it's a 2.1.
- [57:35]
Adam
OK so Google is the equivalent of an entire country of Russia. So when we hear things like California has the top five GDP in the world, what does that mean exactly?
- [57:46]
Tom
Yeah, that means Google's value is equal to one year of Russia's total output.
- [57:52]
Adam
It's pretty, pretty big time stuff though, right?
- [57:55]
Patrick Bet-David
Well I mean the question here is who needs who? And the less Russia can present themselves of who they are, the more the media can dictate how much of a villain Russia is. It's a monopoly in building your reputation and you can't make an argument for it. It's a very interesting, it's a very, very interesting case if one sat with Russia's Putin. You may want to entertain asking a question about. Huh, Very interesting. This is very interesting to me. It's very strategic.
- [58:28]
Adam
Why is it so interesting to you Pat? You seem very, very perplexed in depth on this.
- [58:32]
Vinny
Good word.
- [58:33]
Patrick Bet-David
Now it is because if he doesn't have, I mean no wonder so many people in U.S. it's a, it's a, it's a great move by Biden Harris administration to be able to pin that person to be a villain and no one has access to it to see. I mean. All right, okay, let's see. Obviously it's going to change in the next few months but for as long as he's got, he's got to, he's got to see what he can do with this part until things change. All right, let's go to the next story here that we have. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Let me see which one I want to go with. Okay. Gas prices dropping across the United States. National average likely to fall below $3 of gas. And why is this so? The national average of gas in US is now $3.07 with a median of 299 marking a 5 year drop drop over the past week and a 13 cent decrease over the last month. According to gas buddy Diesel prices are also down, now averaging 3.54, the lowest in over three years. Seasonal demand declines, increased refinery utilization and stabilized global oil price. Due to easing Middle east tensions driving this drop, the US crude oil inventory has now grown by five and a half million barrels. Southern states hold the lowest prices with Texas being 260. Damn. California and Hawaii have the highest at 453. Despite current decreases, holiday travel could push prices up again as historically observed, impacting inflation and goods cost. Tom?
- [60:10]
Tom
Well, what's going on with gas prices is usually September, October, United States see gas prices drop a little bit. We travel everywhere, we go to Disneyland, we do all these things over the summer and then we just get back into driving back and for it to work and we travel for business. So there is a seasonal drop also it's fall, it's not super hot, it's not super cold. So we're not drawing all the extra energy to really chill and cool our homes or heat their homes. So consequently you have a natural demand that drops and when demand drops, prices drop. That's what's happening is very, very normal. However, what's very interesting in here is it'll it whenever these prices drop under $3 you are able to more clearly see the taxes in California. 260 nationwide. 453 almost 460 in California. That's $2 a gallon. So that shows you California that you're basically paying a tax of roughly $2 a gallon in California. Also what's also interesting is the fuel companies are now trying to do some catch up. They're trying to as much as the administration will allow them under the green policies, is to grow supplies so they have emergency supplies to get them through things like hurricanes and super cool, super cold winters. So they've been. And guess what they've done. They have. They have grown 5.5 billion. 5.5 million, excuse me, barrels of inventory. So what they're doing is of suddenly. Remember you used to get. Remember we were in Dallas, Pat, we got like three days notice. In three days it's going to be zero degrees for five days. Remember that?
- [61:55]
Patrick Bet-David
Yes.
- [61:55]
Tom
And they called that what Icemageddon or whatever they call it.
- [61:58]
Patrick Bet-David
That's when your pipes blew up in your second floor and the bed came on, your daughter's bed and nobody was home. Yeah.
- [62:04]
Tom
And everything caved in. Exactly. Exactly. Right. Yeah. The fire, you know, 160 psi fire pipes or whatever it was, blow up in the attic and flooded the place. So because they froze. So you get like only about four days notice. Well, the energy companies have to kick, kick up production, and part of that is fuel oil. And we still use oil to power a lot of power plants. So what we have right now is we have a little bit more supply. But it also shows you guess what if we drill, baby, drill and become a big oil exporter, it's low prices for America and it's exporting a lot of oil and natural gas to the rest of the world. And that's where we're going to make money. And so that's what's going on right now. So gas prices are down, which is good. And it's good these prices are down as we're going into winter. But really, what's hiding below the surface here is the energy industry has successfully fought back against a lot of green policies and the consumer is seeing some benefit. And when Trump's elected, what's his policy?
- [63:09]
Vinny
Drill, baby, drill.
- [63:10]
Tom
Drill, baby, drill.
- [63:11]
Patrick Bet-David
Interesting. Adam, do you have thoughts on this?
- [63:13]
Adam
Well, I'm just looking at some graphs right now. The average price of a bear of oil today is about 72 bucks. I think because we've had conversations about oil in general. I think they want to keep ideal prices of oil around 60 to 80 bucks in that sort of range. So we're kind of sort of par for the course of where it typically is. Right. I mean, this, you know me, I'm uber and everywhere. So if, if you asked me the price of gas today, I would have no clue right now. But the price of an average ballot barrel of oil is somewhere between that 60 to 80 range. Right, Tom?
- [63:43]
Tom
Typically, yeah, Right now it has been as the oil industry, energy industry has fought back against some of these green policies, thanks to Republicans in Congress.
- [63:53]
Adam
I'm also wondering after when they blew up the Nordstream pipeline, like how much that actually affected things right now because we're basically going into winter right now, summer, obviously, traveling gas gets to tend to be a little bit higher in America right here. But around the world right now, Nordstreet pipeline, a significant impact on the price gas prices in Europe both one was operational and when it's damaged and shut down, is it back up and running right now? That whole relationship with Russia and Germany, I think Trump's been very vocal about that. With the, with the, with the Nordstream pipeline, it's been a. So is that still running, Tom, after they blew that up? It's kind of like they blew it up and then there was news like a month or two ago.
- [64:32]
Tom
What happened Two, I believe, is what they blew up in Nordstream. One, I thought was.
- [64:38]
Adam
No, the Nord Stream pipelines are not repaired and are not expected to be repaired anytime soon. Unbelievable. So they just blew up that pipeline and did they basically track that back to Zelensky? Do you remember that story, Pat?
- [64:50]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, but this is the story that I was looking for and I found Tom, and I want to get your thoughts on this. So to me, this is purely market manipulation with timing because again, you don't care if gas prices are high in 2021. You don't care in gas prices are high in 2022. You don't give give a if gas prices are high in 2023. You care a lot what gas prices are in September, in October of 2024. Watch this year. This is May of 2024. Biden administration releasing 1 million barrels of gasoline from reserve in bid to what lower prices. And it's working because it's election season and it's working.
- [65:27]
Adam
And he.
- [65:27]
Patrick Bet-David
Go ahead, Rob.
- [65:28]
Tom
He was running for president at that time. That was before he dropped out after the debate. This is the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which is usually set aside like a fire extinguisher.
- [65:36]
Patrick Bet-David
That's right. You're not even supposed to use it. So you're not supposed to use this for election. This is for wartime. But guess what? Now, Kamala, again, I don't. Their campaign is dumb enough to not use it, but their campaign needs to come up right now and use this. They need. Even though they're manipulating the average person, even though how many people are watching this right now? It's not. We don't do that. Our typical 9:00am time. How many people we got on right now? 21,395. Okay, there's 21,395 wise, smart, sexy, good looking, loving patriots who are willing to go above and beyond and they're watching this and they get to tell the story. But how about the other 341 million people that are not aware of this? If Kamalo's camp uses this, they can say their policies lower gas prices more than Trump, but I'm not sure if they're using this or not. Anyways guys, go fill up the gas tank before the price. Hurry up fill up all your car gas on tanks until some happens suddenly here with us. Next one here. Tom, I want to get your thoughts on this. How the hell is Truth Social parent company Trump Media now worth more than Musk's X as Election Day nears? How is that even possible, folks? But I'm going to read this story to you. Trump's media and technology group, the parent company of Truth Social, is now valued at $10 billion, surpassing Elon Musk X valued at $9.4 billion. This valuation surge, attributed to TMTG's shares quadrupling since late September, comes as November 5 approaches, with True Social stock prices rising more than 9% on Tuesdays 34 17. Trump owns 57% of TMTG, making this stake worth $4 billion. The company, however, posted losses exceeding $16 million for June quarter, generating only 800. That can't be right, Todd.
- [67:24]
Vinny
800.
- [67:24]
Patrick Bet-David
Truth Social has only generated 837 in third quarter. Manect is beating that despite its valuation. Despite Truth Social reach remains far smaller than x, which logged 706 million visitors last month compared to Truth Social 13 and a half million. Musk, a key supporter of Trump's reelection, endorsed him over the summer and has since contributed over 70 million of Trump's campaign. He's also actively campaigning, appearing rallies, battleground states like Pennsylvania urging voters, Tom, take this over because Musk bought this company for roughly $44 billion. How is it now only worth 9.4 in Truth Social 10?
- [68:00]
Tom
Well, Truth Social, we can at least go to the stock market and we can see market caps. We can look there because they're on the stock market. The price goes up and down each day depending on news and things going on. So we know what Truth Social is worth because we can just look at the stock market. We don't have to listen to anybody. Words talk, but numbers scream and the numbers scream out that Truth Social has worked this, however, X is owned by Musk. And it's interesting to me to figure out who is valuing them at 9.4 billion and how are they exactly being valued. Every now and then, Musk will make some comments out loud, but 9.4 billion for X seems way too low. And they could say, well, X's value is down 80% because they're doing some ad calculations. A lot of times they do like, they'll say, x, the valuation is down significantly, you know, and then you have Fidelity valuing at stake based on ad revenue. That's one way to do it. But if someone came along, it's one thing for Fidelity and others to say this is the book value. It's another thing. If somebody came along, if somebody walked up to Elon Musk right now and offered him 10 billion for Twitter, would he take it? No, he wouldn't take it. And if he said he's only taking 10 million for Twitter, you'd have nine private equity firms running across the street waving checkbooks to get in on the auction. So it's one thing to have a book value out there, it's quite another thing to have a public value. And Musk has had issues when they add revenue dropping. But it's all about. It's all about perceptive value and book valuation versus what does it say on the stock market? And what would the value be if Muck said, I will sell X to you? The bidding starts at $10 billion. You don't think that that's going to be 20 billion in two seconds?
- [69:50]
Patrick Bet-David
None of this within 10 minutes. He's got, you know, multi eight figures from us within 10 minutes. Oh, yeah, we're going to get in there to help out.
- [70:00]
Tom
You and I would call two people we know right now and say 10 says we'll give you 11. Don't call anybody else.
- [70:06]
Patrick Bet-David
No, no, it would. It wouldn't be one phone call to Goldman. Go ahead.
- [70:10]
Adam
I'm going to go kind of in a weird direction right here, by the way. None of this math makes sense. So who's Trump's biggest advocate and ally these days?
- [70:21]
Vinny
Elon Musk.
- [70:22]
Adam
Elon Musk. So now a story comes out five days before election that Trump is worth more than Elon. I mean, nobody believes that Truth Social is bigger and more popular, has a bigger market cap than X, Twitter. It just makes zero sense. Could it be, could it be that they're trying to drive a wedge between Elon and Trump and basically do play some games right here? Pat, I know you're not a big fan of games. It's like basically saying, hey, I mean, respect to Chris Pavlovsky, but we all know that Rumble isn't as big as YouTube. But if, imagine if an article came out that rumble has surpassed YouTube. It's like, I don't know about that. It'd be like, yeah, Burger King is bigger than McDonald's. No, it's not. Pepsi's not bigger than Coke. We know that Truth. Social is not as big as X. It's not even a thing. So I'm wondering what kind of games are being played here. It's almost like the people who did the math that valued Mar a Lago at $18 million when it's probably worth a couple hundred million dollars, maybe even a billion. Sorry, I have no clue what's going on here, but none of this math makes sense.
- [71:27]
Tom
Tomorrow no, I, no, I agree with that. I said maybe the. Maybe the folks that were at the federal government that were trying to value things have left their calculator laying around and put someone has picked up that broken calculator, the political calculator, and done it. But there is no way in the hell that Musk's X is valued over at 9.
- [71:46]
Patrick Bet-David
Well, let's go to the next one here. Chinese EV maker BYD beats Tesla in quarterly revenue for the first time as net profits jumps okay, now we're noticing two stories like that. Okay, so what is this story all about? So by the automaker Tesla and quarterly revenue for the first time, posting 200201 billion won, which is 28 billion in US dollars in Q3 compared to Tesla's 25.2. BYD's net profits roll rose 11 and a half percent to 11.61, which is roughly 1.63 billion. Driven by high sales in China, supported by government subsidies and trade and incentives for greener cars. BYD's Q3 success was led by plug in hybrid sales, which surged 75.6% to685,000 units. However, its pure EV sales grew 2.7% as a lost EV market share to other Chinese competitors. BYD counted for over one third of Chinese EV and plug in hybrid sales, aided by subsidies up to 2020, $100 per trade and local government incentives of up to 20,000 won. Expanding overseas, BYD increases its exports by 33%, reaching 95,000 cars sold abroad in Q3 and revisited his total to 450,000 vehicles. 2023 Tom so there's a couple of.
- [73:01]
Tom
Things going on here in The United States. There are. There's been a trend over the last two years that when people are buying new cars, EVs cost a little bit more than hybrids. And with gas moving down artificially, suddenly a hybrid electric costs less to buy. And you get a lot of the benefits of having an electric car and paying a lot less because you're not filling up the tank with gasoline every week, you're using electricity. So there's been a shift in the US on that. Also, it is a fact that it's been harder to find places to charge your electric car in the United States in terms of offices and malls, because we need more EV outlets, which is why our US federal government was trying to build EVs and why, you know, Secretary Pete caught a lot of hell for what? He spent a couple billion dollars. And how would he built seven chargers or something? Something was ridiculous what was spent versus what was actually installed. And then China has been taking. Playing the long game. And BYD has been issuing, not issuing. They've been several models now they have like five models that are out there and they've been exporting a lot. And they've actually been making particular traction in Europe. So they make a little more traction in Europe on market share versus Tesla. You know, other Chinese automakers have been kind of competing with BYD for subsidies in China, like the government says, hey, there's this much money for subsidies, and suddenly BYD doesn't get all of it because other competitors are with them. And so basically it's a more competitive global market. And Tesla has, you know, had challenges in the US market versus hybrids. And it makes for a nice headline to say the Chinese beat Tesla on quarterly revenue. Says Reuters, who loves to print anything negative about Elon Musk. So it may be true, but they love to pick on Musk.
- [74:57]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, and by the way, this is happening without them even being in the States. And does BYD have anything to do with the Hafizan plant that we're planning on building in Mexico? Tom? Oh, so Rob, pull up to see if byd. Byd Hafusan, Mexico. Mexico has risen. Mix with stalling.
- [75:21]
Tom
Yeah, that's exactly right.
- [75:22]
Patrick Bet-David
That's what it is. So BYD is electric vehicle expanding operation Mexico, including the Hafizan industrial. There you go. By the announcement. Okay, so now you gotta realize, apparently, if I'm not mistaken, President Trump, when he was here two weeks ago, he said, they've put this on pause. Rob, can you verify it? Because this story is from July. So Mexico near. Let's see what this one is here. Mexico's shine bomb. The race is on to harness near shoring. Yeah, I'm trying to find out if this Hafizan plan is being done or it's put on halt or not. If it is because of the. I think Biden was giving $7,500 tax credit. Cars coming here from Mexico and then Mexico is growing. I'm just trying to see if this Hafizan plant is put on stop, put on halt or no.
- [76:12]
Tom
And I thought there were some US Makers that also said they were putting something on hold. It was a ginormous factory. We saw pictures of it like in the hills and it was ginormous. And they said, well, okay, there it is.
- [76:23]
Patrick Bet-David
I just found a China. Okay, I found it. I found it. Rob, if you can pull this up. There it is. Pull the story up that I just sent to you. This story will tell you what they're doing. Very interesting. So President Trump when he was on and he said they're going to put it on pause until after US Elections is true. Watch this. China's BYD pauses Mexico factory plans until after US Elections. I wonder why. Mexico could be key production site for BYD along with plants it is building or already operating in Brazil, Hungary, Turkey, Thailand go a little low, Rob. China's top electrical BYD will not announce a major plan investment Mexico until after the US Election. Coordinate people are familiar with the matters of global. BYD was scouting three locations for car production facility in Mexico, but has stopped actively looking for now. Several of the people said, asking not to be identified discussing information. This is private. Well, it's out now. The postpone of is largely because BYD would prefer to wait to see the outcome of the race between US President Trump and Kamala Harris. They added that BYD's pause factory may still be revived or could change this. Another word has not postponed. And then they said BYD said in a statement to Bloomberg that it has not postponed a decision on a factory in Mexico. We continue working to build a factory with the highest technological standards for the Mexican market, not for the United States market, nor for the export market. For byd, the Mexican market is very relevant. Okay. You either believe them or you don't. Right. However, they know if Trump comes in, Trump's going to be making their life a living hell. But if Kamala's there, they're going to say, well, we can negotiate with her, no problem.
- [78:06]
Tom
China also plays the long game. So they'll say, hey, listen, build, build the factory. Only build charge for Mexico. Tell Everybody, it's all about the Mexican market. Someday there will be a US President not named Trump.
- [78:19]
Patrick Bet-David
That's right, that's right.

Adam
Quick thought. I mean Pat, you really got me like acting like a forex trader now. We're talking about Russian rupees out here. We get the Chinese one, we get the Mexican peso. I'm doing all this math here, but it just making. Tell me Pat, if I'm going somewhere this, how many years ago did we interview the guy? The confessions of an economic hitman. What was his name again?
- [78:42]
Patrick Bet-David
Four years ago.
- [78:42]
Adam
Ok, and how, what's the easiest way to destroy a country? Through debt. Right. So China goes all around the world basically saddling countries with debt. I think in Africa alone, that's a couple hundred billions of dollars that countries like Zambia and Angola and Kenya owe China. Every country in Africa for the most part owes China all this mass amount of money because they're mining what, cobalt.
- [79:08]
Tom
And lithium and natural resource collateral.
- [79:10]
Adam
All this stuff for evs. And it just, all these stories make me wonder, you know, how, how accurate is this, how much is the media going against Elon? Because we covered in the last story about, you know, is true social worth more than X? I would highly doubt that. But you said something interesting to Pierce Morgan, which was a fascinating conversation yesterday. And you said right now Trump is the number one enemy, but if and when he gets elected, you said you prioritize J.D.
- [79:37]
Tom
Vance.
- [79:37]
Patrick Bet-David
No, Musk.
- [79:38]
Adam
Musk won.
- [79:39]
Patrick Bet-David
J.D.
- [79:40]
Adam
Van Trump, then Trump.
- [79:41]
Patrick Bet-David
Yep.
- [79:41]
Adam
So it's interesting but basically once Trump gets elected, they're like, I mean, I'll let you summarize as he has four years, JD has eight. But Elon's got another 40 years of success around the world. And he's aligned himself with Trump camp, obviously. And the interview that he did with Tucker, he sort of said, you know, Trump loses like you're aft. And he's like, oh yeah, I know, I know. So I don't know what to make of all these stories, but I would not be shocked if the media is basically using these stories to basically bring down Elon and Trump.
- [80:10]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, I wouldn't either. I think it's going to be a very clear focus they'll have going after them. But let me go to the next story here. Ex CEO, ex goul CEO Schmidt urges US army to replace tanks with drones. Vinnie, I'm going to come to you first with this one here. Replace tanks with drones. Why would they want to do something like that? This Eric Schmidt's a pretty smart guy. So former Google CEO Rick Schmidt urges US military to replace useless tanks with AI powered drones, telling the future investment initiative, give them away, buy a drone instead, citing the effectiveness of inexpensive drones. And Rob, do you have the video of this or no?
- [80:49]
Adam
No, let me see if I can find it.
- [80:50]
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, if you can, that'd be great. Inexpensive drones in Ukraine, where a $5,000 drone can destroy a $5 million tank. Very good perspective. Schmidt, founder of a startup building autonomous kamikaze drones for Ukraine, argued that failing falling costs of autonomous technology means the drone war will get rid of eventual tanks, eventually. Tanks, artillery and mortars. Despite rapid innovation in Ukraine and Russia's drone tactics, Schmidt said Western military systems are precisely wrong for this kind of a scenario and slow to adapt.
- [81:23]
Vinny
Vinnie, I mean this is the future, isn't it?
- [81:26]
Patrick Bet-David
Pad?
- [81:26]
Vinny
I mean you were, what was your, your thing? You fixed Hummers.
- [81:29]
Patrick Bet-David
I fixed Hummers, okay.
- [81:30]
Vinny
One of my boys was a, was a tank mechanic and it's like, I mean this is the future, Pat. We see. I don't know if you guys, I know me and Rob are these people like on my feed on X you just keep seeing these drone attacks, going after people, ping, pinpointing people. But the Ukrainian, I don't want to show them, but Ukrainian or Russian and it's like that, it makes way more sense, you know, the maintenance with the tank and here and the noise and everything. These drones are basically silent until they come and they attack if it's safe. And I hate to be saying this, but I mean it's a way cheaper, faster like discrete method of killing people. I think that's the future. On top of that which to come when it comes into the soldiers, all the robots that, you know, Elon and all these guys are making are designing. That's the future. That's that artillery war that, that guy, the transcendent man. The people that were debating him were saying that that's the future and how scary it is. I think tactic wise it's brilliant. But I mean it is scary as hell that we're not going to have any tanks, we're not going to have any soldiers, it's all going to be robots.
- [82:25]
Tom
Well, there was no tanks that rolled into Lebanon. When is Israel knocked off a couple commanders over the last two weeks, right? That was. The drone went in drone you saw then they sent the reconnaissance drone in with the camera to see how the guy was doing and he was still sitting in the chair.
- [82:41]
Adam
Now that was in Gaza with Yaya Sinwar. But I see what you're saying.
- [82:44]
Vinny
Yeah, but still. But, yeah, but still. There's no drones.
- [82:46]
Tom
Instead of.
- [82:46]
Vinny
Yeah. True human people. Yeah, because in those tanks are human beings. You know, I mean, I mean, they're. It's going to be less. Listen to me. It's any less American soldiers in harm's way. But I'm, you know, I'm anti.
- [82:58]
Adam
Ultimately, I think what he's saying is the famous Wayne Gretzky coach, don't skate to where the puck is, skate to where it's going. He's basically saying tanks are old school, drones are new school. Start investing more in that type of technology versus sort of what you would use for traditional land wars, which they're doing in Ukraine right now. Yeah, we'll get into that.
- [83:14]
Patrick Bet-David
But what's. What's the actor's name that played 300?
- [83:17]
Adam
George Gerard.
- [83:18]
Patrick Bet-David
Gerard Butler played a movie protecting the President. I don't know if you guys have seen Citizen. Yeah, that's what it is. Something. Olympus has fallen.
- [83:28]
Vinny
Olympus.
- [83:28]
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, my bad. So if you Rob, if you can pull up. Olympus has fallen. Okay, we can't show the scene.
- [83:33]
Adam
Angel has fallen.
- [83:34]
Vinny
No, Olympus.
- [83:35]
Patrick Bet-David
Olympus has fallen. Morgan Freeman, Drone war. I think that's the one. If you go to Olympus has fallen.
- [83:41]
Adam
Drone war, when Morgan Freeman was in it right there.
- [83:44]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, he is.
- [83:44]
Adam
It's our second Morgan Freeman sighting.
- [83:46]
Patrick Bet-David
Guys, there is a scene. Have you guys ever seen this scene? Well, man, I can't show it to you, but there's a scene in this movie where you look up and you see all of a sudden.
- [83:57]
Vinny
Is it like that? Like these people?
- [83:59]
Patrick Bet-David
That's it. But all of a sudden you see thousands of drones coming your way. So to save the President, he had to jump underwater for everything to explode for them to make it. And he pushes the President into the water. By the way, I'm not going to show to the audience because it's part of the movie, but here's what it looks like, okay? They're looking up, okay, you see all these drones are coming. They notice all the drones that are coming up and he goes with the boat to save. And folks, if you've seen this movie, you know exactly what I'm talking about. They're there. It's literally thousands of drones coming in one by one by one by one. By.
- [84:36]
Tom
Wow.
- [84:37]
Vinny
Killing.
- [84:37]
Patrick Bet-David
They kill soldiers, they kill everybody. You can't do nothing about it. But jumping in the water and going under the water and his job is to try to save the President. It was so realistic. Oh, and by the way, this is how it comes out. This is how it comes out. Look at this. It just shoots it out like a semi autom. You see that? You're shooting drones. It's so realistic. I think Schmidt is right. I think the method of fighting and going to war today is different. And if somebody really wanted to attack, what is your method of protecting drones? How are you going to protect someone if they send thousands of drones your way? What is the cost?
- [85:15]
Adam
You got to build something like Iron Dome, like we need.
- [85:18]
Vinny
I don't know why we don't have something like that. Because that's the threat.
- [85:20]
Adam
Well, we have what's called the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean, so we kind of have that.
- [85:25]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, but we have a biodome.
- [85:28]
Adam
Shout out to Paulie Shores.
- [85:30]
Patrick Bet-David
We don't have an Iron dome, but we have a biodome. We got some work to do, Tom. We got some work to do.
- [85:35]
Adam
Tom, we're gonna need you on this one.
- [85:36]
Patrick Bet-David
All right, let me go to what time we got for 46. We got one more story and then we'll go into the Yankees and we'll. We'll wrap it up here, man. We've covered a bunch of stories very quickly, by the way. Let's go to. Do you wake up at 3am Every night? I do.
- [85:51]
Vinny
Four times to pee. And it's ridiculous.
- [85:54]
Patrick Bet-David
Do you really?
- [85:54]
Vinny
I'm dead serious.
- [85:55]
Patrick Bet-David
Well, this guru reveals how to beat this issue.
- [85:59]
Vinny
Okay.
- [85:59]
Patrick Bet-David
And maybe this could be a life changing moment for you on the podcast.
- [86:03]
Vinny
I appreciate it.
- [86:03]
Patrick Bet-David
Well, and then you can thank the guru, not me. But I'm just reading the story. Here we go. Dave Asprey, author and founder of Bulletproof, claims waking up between 3 to 5am is often due to a crash in your blood sugar, triggering cortisol and adrenaline that disturbs sleep. He suggests a bedtime snack of raw honey, collagen, and MCT oil, as these offer sustained energy without the blood sugar. Crash. Asprey explains that cortisol, known as the stress hormone. Listen, I know a better stress hormone, but you got kids here. Wakes up by increasing glucose, which the brain uses, but leaves you awake. Chronic stress, he notes, can elevate cortisol, affecting everything from immune system to muscles to your hair, skin and nails. While sleep deprivation heightens risks of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease, nearly 70 million Americans and 40 million Brits struggle with sleep disorders. Experts caution against dependency on sleeping pills, which can be addictive, while promoting natural sleep aids like reduced screen time, cool bedrooms, and adequate magnesium and vitamin D intake. Tom, thoughts on this?
- [87:16]
Tom
Well, I think what's really interesting here is There is a blend here because he's talking about two things. The first thing he's talking about is chemical. Hey, you know what? You have a stress hormone and cortisol wakes you up. But then he's also talking about, you know, being overworked, overtired and dependency on sleeping pills when people are just so stressful. So arguing against chemical and promoting natural sleep aids like reducing screen times, cool bedrooms and vitamin D. A great way to get vitamin D is to do what? Take a walk. Take a walk for 40 minutes each day out in the sunshine and just collect the vitamin D. You know, you. We collect it right through. Right through our face and being outside. And so there's two sides to this. One of them, it seems like it's common sense lifestyle, like blue light before going to bed. You know, people talk about that blue light and then being in good physical condition and getting a walk. And the other is don't depend on chemicals like sleeping pills. But let's see if we can get the natural chemicals of something like honey. And honey has got a lot of benefits. People that have allergies, they say, look for raw harvest honey that's local.
- [88:32]
Vinny
I had that.
- [88:33]
Tom
And have a little bit of that on toast or things. Because there's pollens in there that give you a little resistance against the pollens that are in the air. Because the local honey is made by local bees. Smart. Collecting local pollen from local flowers. So I think there's a lot of great common sense in here about getting off chemicals, having good lifestyle patterns and raw local honey.
- [88:57]
Patrick Bet-David
Vinny, this is serious stuff.
- [88:59]
Vinny
I'm being that.
- [88:59]
Patrick Bet-David
But you know what it reminds me of?
- [89:01]
Vinny
Yeah.
- [89:02]
Patrick Bet-David
There was a famous song that went like this. Sugar, honey, honey. Right. I don't. You are my candy girl and you got me wanting you. Right. It's a good song.
- [89:23]
Tom
Who is actually government for healthy living.
- [89:29]
Patrick Bet-David
I listened to the song in Iran.
- [89:30]
Adam
What song? This. This must have been the 60s.
- [89:32]
Patrick Bet-David
I don't know. Maybe. Listen, maybe he took this tip from the song because the song says sugar, but he says honey honey. So he says sugar one time, but of honey, honey. So Dave, wherever you got your brilliant idea from, you guys, stop listening to give the song credit for you coming up with this idea.
- [89:49]
Adam
I'll add one thing. I think it's sort of testament the story to where we're at as a country. We're more reliant on pills, jabs, ozempic than actually getting your fat ass out of bed, working out, getting some sunlight, getting in the gym, actually putting in the work, everyone wants to take shortcuts rather than actually going to bed, getting some sleep. It's like, just take a pill, get this going on. Rather than lose some weight. Bing, bing, bang. Ozempic. Oh, oh, ok. So everyone wants to take a shortcut. We saw. I won't say any names. We saw. I showed you some pictures of people that were clearly using growth hormone or whatever that was and how sort of dastardly they looked if you take shortcuts.
- [90:31]
Patrick Bet-David
Oh, you're talking about. Yeah, I was about to do it.
- [90:36]
Adam
Yeah.
- [90:36]
Vinny
Excuse me.
- [90:37]
Adam
Excuse me. Excuse me.
- [90:39]
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah.
- [90:40]
Adam
Excuse me. Anyway, it's as in America. We're more obese than ever. We're fatter than ever. They exercise less than ever. We're broker than ever as a country. But just put a quick band aid over it, see if it works. But go get some sleep.
- [90:53]
Patrick Bet-David
Let's finish it up with this, guys. Let's talk Yankees. We're at the game yesterday. We land, everything's looking good. Then all of a sudden, for the first time in the history of my life, I've never seen where a team has three errors, not counting Cole. Not running to the first, not covering. I've never seen catcher interference and I've never seen balk. All in the same game. And you still could have won. You lose 7, 6. They announced Freeman as the MVP. Well deserved. The only guy in the history of baseball ever to hit a home run in six straight World Series games. Never happened before. Stanton hit 18, which now he's number three in the home run list. Right. I believe all time. Right. With what he did while we were there, something very interesting happened. I want to show this clip here of this guy. We're going to buy something for Dylan and we're shopping. This man comes up and it was so wild. I let him tell you the story on what he told us. None of us could believe it. It was such an authentic, genuine man that we met. Go ahead and play this clip, Rob.
- [91:59]
Vinny
He wrote that.
- [92:02]
Patrick Bet-David
We're in the sweets. Watch this. Wow. I said I would meet you today. That is insane. Look at. I even put it on your Instagram. I'm not gonna lie. Are you kidding me? I swear I still. Home run game five. I will meet PBD World Series, huh? And look at. Great on it. Unbelievable.
- [92:28]
Adam
This is on my camera, guys.
- [92:30]
Patrick Bet-David
Definitely not any. And the nicest guy, by the way, he saw you guys. He like. Oh, my God, Vinny. Oh, my God, look at this right there. What's up, brother? How you doing? It was great.
- [92:44]
Vinny
So he couldn't. He couldn't get the A shirt fast enough. So he just made it his own by himself. That said, future American ingenuity, baby entrepreneurs. Because I knew I was going to meet you today, and I did that and crazy.
- [92:55]
Patrick Bet-David
And by the way, you know what's even crazier? Let me tell you guys what's even crazier. Remember the sweepstakes we did with the Yankees? Take it. All that stuff that we announced with the whole sweepstakes that we announced. So check this out. You know, Tom, our cto, and Ben, they get on a call and they do the whole sweepstake for every dollar spend to see who the winner is to go join us for the big game. Right now watch this. We're thinking the winner is going to be somebody that's bought a thousand dollars and they bought from us many, many times. This is the craziest story of who ended up winning it. When they called me and told me, I'm like, when we called him, he kept saying, get there, get them. He couldn't even believe what's going on. But I'll let him tell you the story. He's a Phillies fan, but for tonight, for that night, he was a Yankees fan. Go ahead, Rob.
- [93:46]
Adam
So I'm here with our new friend Matt, right? And he's the winner of the valuetainment sweepstakes. Matt, come here. Let's get inside here. Matt, give me the rundown of how you won and ended up here with us at the World Series.
- [94:01]
Patrick Bet-David
Well, every Tuesday and Thursday in my.
- [94:03]
Tom
Office while I'm working, I have home team on, on the computer. Last Tuesday, BBD comes out the sweepstakes.
- [94:11]
Patrick Bet-David
I figure I need some new gear.
- [94:13]
Tom
A couple long gear.
- [94:17]
Patrick Bet-David
And a T shirt as well.
- [94:19]
Tom
Next thing you know, I'm entering those three states.
- [94:21]
Patrick Bet-David
I get a text on Saturday.
- [94:23]
Tom
Now I'm at Yankee Stadium.
- [94:24]
Adam
Yes.
- [94:25]
Patrick Bet-David
$2,500 spending cash and the best suite you can have.
- [94:29]
Adam
Unbelievable.
- [94:30]
Tom
For the World Series, game five.
- [94:34]
Adam
And who's here? Just say hi real quick.
- [94:40]
Patrick Bet-David
Yo.
- [94:41]
Adam
Matt is the winner right now.
- [94:44]
Vinny
I love it.
- [94:45]
Adam
He says he bought a hat.
- [94:48]
Patrick Bet-David
That's crazy.
- [94:52]
Adam
Talk about an roi. I think this guy ended up getting a hat and a shirt for like 60 bucks and he ends up going to the World Series. I think we were to get to be a part of it. I don't know how much people were paying something.
- [95:03]
Patrick Bet-David
No, no. Oh, the tickets. The tickets are going for tens of thousands of dollars.
- [95:08]
Adam
Right? Here he is joining us. Awesome guy. Went to Syracuse, played linebacker. Rob I think he grew up, like, right around you and. And about 40 minutes south Jersey. We did. Hell of a guy. And he's like, I can't believe that I just bought this.
- [95:22]
Patrick Bet-David
Here I am. He kept saying, get that. He was golfing. Get that, fatty. Get the. You're Joe. No, no. Oh, my God. This one.
- [95:28]
Adam
Not like a guy, like, from Philly would talk like.
- [95:30]
Patrick Bet-David
So. Yes. What. Listen. And more and more while we're walking around, we're seeing people wearing FLB gear. Future looks bright gear. The valuetainment gear. It's phenomenal to see all this stuff taking place. But, Tom, it's really about you.
- [95:44]
Adam
Oh, man.
- [95:44]
Patrick Bet-David
Because we're watching Tom. And Tom is in the back, by the way. Just so you guys know, we flew here on a pj. Tom came in a Greyhound. He's. He left right after the game, hasn't had any sleep. The Greyhound had the very strong engine, so it was kind of flying.
- [95:57]
Tom
No bathroom.
- [95:58]
Patrick Bet-David
How is it feel, Tom, knowing you're in a suite where every. By the way, you found two Dodger fans, and I identify how close you guys found each other. You're in a suite, everyone's Yankees, and at the end, you see your Dodgers win the World Series. How did it feel?
- [96:15]
Tom
It felt really, really wonderful. You know, you only get one or two times.
- [96:18]
Patrick Bet-David
That's enough. That's enough time.
- [96:21]
Tom
Back to the 80s in your life. Typical sports fan. You have one or two times in your. In your. Your life where maybe your team makes it to the, you know, World Series of the super bowl. Unless you're like a Patriot fan or a Yankee fan or a Dodger fan. And I was just very, very blessed, and I thank you. And I want to say something. There's a lot of stuff that goes on after sports championships are won, but I was wearing this jacket. It's a 1981 satin jacket back from the era of Fernando Valenzuela, God rest his soul. And we were walking in and walking out, and you know what? Nothing but respect for those Yankee fans. And I gave them respect in return. A great team, a young team, but they're. You know, people can say what they will about New York, but we had a great experience at Yankee Stadium, from the people that work there to the other fans that were there. I was kind of expecting, okay, am I going to get spit on?
- [97:10]
Patrick Bet-David
Is 0.
- [97:11]
Tom
0.
- [97:12]
Vinny
I actually did on the back of his jacket, but he didn't.
- [97:14]
Patrick Bet-David
He's saying, aside from.
- [97:18]
Tom
That's all I can say. It felt really good. But thank you to New York. Thank you to the Yankee fans and congratulations to Yankee fans making all the way to World Series and coming back. I feel like the Yankees are coming back to the era of greatness that they enjoyed, you know, back in from 2000 to 2009. I believe that.
- [97:33]
Patrick Bet-David
Vinnie, as a New York yourself, you, New Yorker and being there, how painful was it and how do you feel about the comments he's making? Is it. Is the sentiments landing and soothing or. No, you're not buying.
- [97:45]
Vinny
Well, first, I'll address that one first. Remember that Christmas present? I was gonna get it. Yeah, it just downgraded like a mofo. Seriously, it's not what. Tom, I love you to death.
- [97:53]
Patrick Bet-David
I'm not surprised.
- [97:54]
Vinny
But you're gonna get 99 cent store type of dollar store type trip anyway. But I'm just messing around. No, it was.
- [97:59]
Tom
So you're cutting it half. So I'm gonna get half of them?
- [98:01]
Vinny
Yeah, yeah, you're getting half of that. But no, I mean just being, you know, being in the Bronx, you know, right next to the Yonkers where, you know, I was born, where I'm from, my family was message and be like, we're all the way in the left field. Like, oh, guys, it's.
- [98:11]
Adam
It's not.
- [98:14]
Vinny
I didn't say that. But it's like, it's so to get to the other side like we were. It was insanity. It felt good, but I'm not going to lie. A disappointment from just. I mean, what was it, Tom? Eight errors just in the World Series in general, kind of like they just. They just didn't have it. It's disappointing when your team gets all the way to the dance, mind you, regular season, amazing records being broken, everything. But then when you get to the dance, you fail in that fashion. It's heartbreaking. I mean, you know, the team looks good, but I mean, there has to be some changes for the future because you can't come that far, Tom, and go in the slumps, have errors, the manager making bad decisions. It's like, come on, we invest all this time and all this money and we're buying, we're investing in the team. And then it comes in, we fall flat. Not because it was okay, one run and okay, I could deal with that. But when it's a horrible loss like that, because all around not. Not what? Not playing well and not managing well, it hurts even more because we had it. We should have won game one and we should have won game two. And some of the decisions of taking out Garrett Cole and then Dropping balls. And then I love Cole to death. But then a play where he's supposed to cover first. He just points at Rizzo, like, as if he was going to summon him to go to first. It's really, really disappointing.
- [99:27]
Adam
So, Pat, I think it would be a good idea to maybe show your Instagram post with how you felt about Tom. I don't know if that's possible at this point.
- [99:33]
Patrick Bet-David
Listen, you know, you're Rob. You can go to my Instagram. And then I think there's something the guys want to do. If you go to my Instagram page. It was. Tom was hospitalized afterwards. Yeah, we don't. Good. I probably shouldn't have said that. My lawyers probably said I need his.
- [99:46]
Tom
Therapy while I was bus.
- [99:49]
Vinny
That I punched him in his face. Look how red his face is.
- [99:51]
Patrick Bet-David
You know, That's a real picture, by the way.
- [99:52]
Vinny
That's real. Like you're putting him in a sleeper hole.
- [99:54]
Patrick Bet-David
No, no, no. Critics will say this is fake. It's just stage. But look at Tom. His face is ready. Can't breathe.
- [99:58]
Vinny
He can't breathe. Look at his team is winning in the back.
- [100:00]
Patrick Bet-David
And look at the veins. Your veins on your neck. Yeah, but look, it is what it is. By the way, four years ago, I was at the Dodger game when they won, okay. In Texas. Oh, co. And Mookie went 445, and it was the best.
- [100:14]
Vinny
He's sick.
- [100:15]

And we rooted for Dodgers in that game. There's only one team I'm going to root for Dodgers over, and that is the Yankees. And that's for many different reasons, but we're excited about where the Yankees are going next. Rob, whoever, you got that. They want to do what they want to do, because I got to go upstairs to meeting and I got to do a shoot. Then I got to try to go find it. Way to go trick or treating with the kids.

For everybody, for everybody listening to us. This, this started with a small idea of a wanting to have a platform that I can talk about politics and current events. And I didn't want to mix it up with V was a mainly a business channel and all of a sudden valuetainment just a year and a half ago was at 4 million subscribers. At 6 million subscribers. PBD podcast went from 50 subscribers just four years ago to now 2.2, 2.12, whatever the numbers, million subscribers. And we're doing this because of you that's watching this still with us. For those of you guys that are watching, this wouldn't happen without you. I love running into you. I love talking to you. I feel like we have a relationship here together and sitting down talking to these guys. If you guys were on the plane and you would have seen how we were singing. I didn't want to do it here, but I think I have to have to kind of tell you guys that, you know how I told you I don't want to show you this picture because it looks a little awkward, but I'll show you here. Soon we may be coming out with a music band. And here's what the boys band's called. It's called out of sync. Yes. And not in sync. Out of sync. And when you listen to us singing on the way to the Yankees, we had a great time. This wouldn't happen without the crew here. And we're just getting warmed up. Future looks bright and hopefully you'll stay with us for decades and decades and decades to come. God bless everybody. Take care. Bye.
