Jimmy
I don't think you're zoomed in all the way, Mike.
Lewis
That's all right. I'm big enough.
Hit it.
Jimmy
Oh, man.
Lewis
Zoom in on me. Oh, that's perfect, man.
Jimmy
You like it?
Lewis
Yeah, dude.
Jimmy
All right.
Lewis
I'm like this wide. Dude, don't. Just don't put the camera on my legs.
Mike
I, I did have fun being in the comments over while you were.
Lewis
Yeah, it was good, right? That was a good crowd too. Yeah, it was.
Non stop. 30 minutes, 35 minutes of good entertainment, question and answers, interacting. Put the dogs on the camera.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Some reflections Weston has gotten. I think just today. In the last two days he's gotten 89 Christmas cards.
Lewis
Excellent.
Jimmy
From our, our, our supporters. So that is amazing. I don't know what this means, but they had to move Weston's Christmas up to the left.
Mike
That's probably not so fantastic.
Jimmy
If you haven't gotten west in a Christmas card and you want to, now would probably be the time to do it.
Mike
I mean, I. Dude, I got kids, man. I can't even imagine.
Lewis
No, no, that's Christmas time. I mean anytime. I mean, Christmas just kind of. I think Christmas enhances it for us as people who don't have to deal with it.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
For a parent, it doesn't matter what day of the week, what year, what month. I mean, you're watching your child slowly pass away in front of you. That's, that's, that's. And if we can do anything to help, obviously that's what we're here for. But I can't.
Mike
I mean like I gotta. I got a six year old son, man, and I can't imagine that watching that light slowly go out.
Jimmy
God, that would. It's the worst. It's literally. I don't know, it's. There's a. I've heard biblical reasoning on why this stuff happens because people one of the biggest things is, you know, it's a, it's a logical argument for somebody that doesn't understand Christianity. And when they say if, if God is real, why do kids like Weston go through what they go through? And I don't know, I don't want to put it on you, because.
Mike
No, no, send it.
Jimmy
Do you, do you. What is the reasoning if someone were to ask.
Mike
If someone was to ask me, I would, I would go with two things. And I'm gonna, I'm gonna leave out what I normally say on this, but I think you guys can agree with me. We've all lost people doing the job, whether it was in the infantry or as a police officer. It's almost always the best people. It's the, like, yeah, that guy was not a bag. That was the very best of us. And I had that question about my good friend Josh Madden, who's the anniversary of his death was the 6th of December. And I struggled with it for a long time. And my conclusion was he learned all the lessons he needed to learn. He did everything the Lord wanted him to do, and it was time for him to go. And it sucks for us, but we got that light. We, we got to see it, we got to be motivated by it. And that was maybe more of the mission. And I'm getting kind of choked up just thinking about it, but that was probably more the mission than anything else now, from a, a Christian perspective, from a doctrinal perspective.
We don't know the effects, we don't know the plan that the Lord has, and it sucks. But maybe Weston did his job while he was here, and he's from, by all accounts, did a good one.
Lewis
And.
Mike
Man, I, I.
It's a struggle when we ask the Lord why he puts us through the things that he does. And we get closer to the Lord when we struggle with those questions and.
Jimmy
Puts things in perspective.
Lewis
And I look, here's what I look at. As I've gotten older, obviously, I'm the oldest, almost 50. And you know, I watched that reel where Eddie Murphy talks about, you got about 75 good years, 75 summers. That's if you're absolutely lucky. You can walk up, pull out studio, drive down the road some more on Anything can happen any moment.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
What I think, what I take from the this in my spirit is when losing somebody like Terry close to me.
Don'T just stop your life and mourn, mourn, mourn, mourn, yes, mourn. But you in your head, maybe her mission was to tell everybody you're not doing something right. You got to get back to this. You got to get back to that. Stop living every day like, oh, God, everything's so terrible. I said, all the people I said that to that when we lost her. I said, you woke up this morning, you woke up this morning, you got out of bed. You got to go anywhere you wanted to go on Earth. You could do whatever you wanted that day. That is the biggest blessing of all. You can get up every day and go, I can do whatever I want. So don't. I. I look at those, like, losing my dad, losing people close to me, like, initially younger, immature, it was, poor me, poor me, poor me. Now I go, you know what? I'm gonna look at her and I'm gonna do things better. I'm going to respect things more. And that's what I try to take from. For him, like a young kid. It is. I don't know that there's any words, anything. But if anything, as you guys see the story unfold, man, don't take every. Any day for granted. Don't think, well, I'll just wake up tomorrow and do it then, do it now, do it now. Because tomorrow could be the day that anybody tells you, hey, man, you got some disease and we can't fix you.
Mike
I mean, poor Jack. I mean, yeah, I mean, we. We come into contact with this a lot just by the fact that we carry guns for a living and firemen and EMTs and everybody that. That straps it on to go serve the. Didn't do the dangerous, hard things. And it's easier for us to go, well, you know, my. My partner got shot or my buddy got blown up or, you know, so and so went into a house to try to save someone and got burned up. It's a lot harder when it's a. A kid. Yeah.
Lewis
Oh, yeah.
Jimmy
And he didn't ask for it.
Mike
You know, I. I think the best thing that's going to happen from this is the parents are going to see the kids or the. The community just rally around them. By the way, my camera's flickering again, so it's like once every minute.
Jimmy
I like those odds.
Mike
I like those odds. It's the warning to tell me to shut up.
Jimmy
I got a button here.
Mike
He's like, put a little short in it.
Jimmy
I mean, we'll go into it later in the episode, but, I mean, we dropped the Israel reel and I kind of used Dave. I didn't kind of. I used Dave Portnoy. His crash outs mixed with what we said and that there wasn't really mixed reviews on that one. It was, it was pretty. It was pretty.
Lewis
I've got three messages this morning since we started. Oh, really? About that one you just posted like saying, I'm glad you guys are talking about this stuff.
Jimmy
I haven't even looked at it.
Lewis
Well, this is my cop one. But yeah, you put. I mean, so people are happy that it's being discussed at least. I mean, and again, just like we talked about, there's always room to discuss everything.
Jimmy
When you can't discuss it. That's a problem.
Lewis
Yes.
Jimmy
So.
Lewis
Yes. And when you make rules to not be able to discuss things or somebody becomes protected, that, that's, to me, it's just like if, if you don't want to talk about what's going on in your. Then I would always assume as a cop or detective or even anybody talking to anybody in general, you're hiding something.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
I'm not saying you have to do it close of your life, but it's like in this. If you can't. If I can't talk about that, what. What am I going to find out?
Jimmy
Well, it's not, it's. I don't. Yeah, you're right. Individuals have things called privacy and they don't have to. But one of the biggest events in his. In history.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
We can't even talk about.
Mike
Well, I mean, you remember when the Ukraine war started and anybody going like, why the are we supporting these people? Was like, dude, shut up.
Jimmy
Look at when we went into Iraq. You're not even American. What? You know, you're not Bush, Cheney, you ain't American.
Mike
Yeah. I mean, anytime somebody tells me I can't disagree, I got, I, I want to disagree harder.
Jimmy
Yeah. And I mean, I was watching a video yesterday on, on what is a psyop, and it's essentially a psyop is when it's not a good idea and they have to silence everybody and there's nefarious intentions behind it. You know, there's all kinds of things going on right now that, you know, the government wants to get their narrative out.
Mike
Yeah, they do.
Jimmy
And whether it be right, wrong, you know, the government's going to put their narrative out.
Mike
Yeah, they are.
Jimmy
And they're going to do whatever they need to to get that narrative out. And, and to be honest with you, I don't trust the government at all.
Lewis
Well, here I'll transition to something really cool. Then we're talking about the government. There's a big land. There's gonna be a big decision today on the Supreme Court, Trump is trying to remove a lady from the Federal Trade Commission that Biden appointed in 2023. They get seven year appointments. TRUMP says her views don't align with his administration. And basically he's trying to say I should be able to put everybody in charge of all those federal agencies that are mine. Kind of like the Supreme Court was put in place. So you can't like manipulate the Supreme.
Jimmy
Court only if there's a justice opening.
Lewis
Correct. And then they have to fill it. Then there was an old grandfathered in rule that everybody just broke where they're not supp supposed to appoint if they're in the very end of their term. Trump did it twice, I think. Yeah, but, but this case is going to decide. Can Trump change the Federal Electronic Commission, the fcc, the National Transportation Safety Board, the Federal Trade Commission? Can he go in and go, you got seven years. Biden appointed you. You're out, Jimmy, you're in. You're my guy. So the Supreme Court's gonna rule on this.
Mike
You know, people don't know this about because civics doesn't isn't get taught in schools anymore. But like originally when we voted for the president, the, the guy that was the loser was the vice president. Like we did. We wanted checks and balances in there. Now look, this lady may be the worst of the worst and have nothing but bad intentions. Okay, fine. But I, I will take somebody sort of the same reason why, like I don't vote for the sitting sheriff anymore. Like, you've been in there a long time, bro. So get somebody else in there. So, you know, I, I kind of want, you know, people to, to stop and put the brakes on any, any major changes that are happening.
Jimmy
Hey, Lewis, while you're doing all this, can you make sure canine gets a link to the. Do you remember his email?
Lewis
Yeah, I do.
Jimmy
Okay. And then is our Ukraine correspondent.
Lewis
Yeah, we sent him a link saying come on around. Yeah, we took that out.
Mike
And, and Crusader is texting me on IG right now.
Lewis
Crusader?
Jimmy
Yeah, I, I noticed that the first hour is very formal. We get through what we got. You know, we, we talk, we do updates. And then the second hour is kind of like doing all the things that we typically do. All of our breakdowns and all of our segments. And then the second half of the hour and going into the third hour is where it becomes a lot more fun.
Well, when you don't have anything to talk about, that's sometimes the best time to start talking.
Mike
Well, I mean, you know, you said it on the live you know, we only had three people in the studio on the camera for.
A Night Shift.
Lewis
Yeah.
Mike
And that was. In my opinion, it was the best one. I mean, we were just.
Jimmy
That was a good one.
Mike
You know, Mike's over there throwing bombs at you and me.
Lewis
In my opinion, it was every week just like that.
Jimmy
The amount of reels I have. I have four. Four wheels done and ready to go for tonight, for today, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday before the next Night Shift. And they're hilarious.
Mike
Was it that bad?
Jimmy
So they're not. They're not anything that would go viral, but they're funny as hell.
Lewis
Oh, yeah, we were. We were getting at it.
Mike
Yeah, it was a lot of fun, man.
Jimmy
If you guys haven't seen it, go check out the last Night Shift.
Lewis
That was a good one.
Mike
How was. Wait, hold on.
Lewis
I. We didn't do it. Know, if I were to cancel that kind of show, I would get ridiculed by my partner. You guys can just cancel stuff.
Jimmy
What?
Lewis
Open Mike was canceled Friday.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
If I do. Bro. If I do that, it's a problem. But I was home. I was sitting around doing nothing. We got to stay consistent. Everything's got to be.
Mike
I was. I was buried in phone calls.
Lewis
You thought you missed it. You were apologizing.
Mike
Yeah, I was. Like.
Lewis
You didn't miss it.
Mike
I was.
Lewis
I was so busy, Justin, that you guys canceled. Yeah, I was.
Mike
Because we. You know, there was a lot that went on between Thursday night and Friday when I got home that I needed to talk to people.
Lewis
We're adding our show Thursday, correct, Or Friday? Well, we're talking about doing.
Jimmy
Oh. Oh, yeah.
Lewis
A recap. Kind of weekly.
Jimmy
Yeah. An anti.
Lewis
Or uncensored between us, just going at it, laughing about the whole week episode. Okay.
Jimmy
On Friday, same time, same thing. It'll be. Everybody will be remote, though.
Lewis
Yeah.
Jimmy
I mean, obviously, if you haven't picked up, this show is. Is steadily growing. We're adding new. Obviously, our goal is to be Monday through Friday and in the future, but, you know, we have to kind of do it to where it makes sense. So let's get into some current events. What's this deal with China?
Mike
So did you guys ever see the movie Top Gun?
Jimmy
Who hasn't?
Mike
Yeah. So, you know, the beginning of the movie when they're, like. They're getting. You know, the MIGs are coming towards the carrier, and they're up there like dog fighting and cougars having a crash and.
Jimmy
Yeah, well.
Mike
And then, you know, Maverick kind of flips over, does his whole thing. Well, yeah, that. That Happened, but it was the Chinese and the. The Japanese. So the Chinese has a. They have their. I do it.
Lewis
Do it.
Jimmy
No, doing the Jimmy thing where you. You put your finger. So you tell yourself, he's doing it right now. Put it on him. That's what you mean.
Mike
It's getting worse. The flashing is getting worse.
Lewis
Yeah.
Jimmy
Is it? Yeah. All right, hold on. Yeah, keep talking.
Mike
So basically, the. The.
Jimmy
The.
Mike
A Chinese carrier task force is operating near Japan.
Lewis
They're not on you, so I'm pretending it's you talking.
Lewis just goes around.
Mike
Lewis, God damn it.
Lewis
We need all of you to come to the studio just once.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
To see this go down.
Mike
Yeah.
And we got our. We got our 100, 000 subscriber thing. Covering up the electricity.
Jimmy
Just puts it on my mtc.
Mike
So. So basically this. This Chinese carrier task force is out there doing, you know, learning how to land on carriers, because they haven't been doing it for the past 100 years like we have. And they basically were, like, looking up at Japan. They're shining their radar into Japan, trying to see what's coming and going. And Japan was like, it. We're gonna launch some F16s, which they actually call them F2s because they're made by Mitsubishi. I think they're called the 02.
Lewis
This is the time for your Asian accent. Yeah.
Jimmy
And so have you guys ever seen a. Was it scary movie too, where she goes in the little. They're making fun of, not. Not the ring, but the grudge. Have you ever seen that? And the little Asian kids like Mitsubichi.
Lewis
I was waiting for it to come.
Mike
So. So they're over there like, teno hiko Banzai driving their F16s right towards this carrier task force. And a MIG comes up, and they have, like, he's got radar lock on us. Oh, you know, there they go. Hey, that's a MiG, you know, or I think it was an SU37 or something like that. One of the SUs that they ended up doing it. And Japan was like, you. You had like a. You. A mock dog fight with us. And they were like, well, you were getting too close to our carrier. And so. Yeah, so they actually made a meme. I don't know if you guys know this, but Xi Jinping, the. The. Yeah, that's his name. The. The leader of the Chinese Communist Party. He is his. The meme of him is Winnie the Pooh. He hates it. So that. That meme that I sent you guys this morning of that. That little Winnie the Pooh in an airplane. Yeah, that's. He hates that.
Jimmy
So did you laugh at your own image when you sent it?
Mike
I do.
Jimmy
He said it. And then.
Mike
I didn't harden a picture. I didn't mean to. I was actually trying to scroll through to the bottom.
Jimmy
I fat thumbed it.
Mike
Yeah, I did. But, like, it's still hilarious.
Lewis
I did that on Facebook yesterday. I was getting at it with somebody, and my wife said, you, like, laugh at your own comment. I'm like, it was on accident, but it makes it even better now. Yeah, dude.
Mike
It's sort of like when we watched. When we watched the train thing. I watched that, like, four times, and I'm laughing at what I'm doing.
Lewis
Watch it.
Mike
So, yeah, so they. They.
Clint
We're.
Mike
We're starting to see some stuff in this. In. In and around Japan. Japan is ready to go full on samurai warrior on China.
Jimmy
Really?
Mike
Oh, yeah. Oh, it's. It's bad.
Jimmy
They. They. Will they be our allies?
Mike
Oh, yeah. They. They don't have a choice.
Jimmy
So you remember what happened last.
Lewis
Yeah, right.
Mike
You got a couple atom splitters shoved up your ass. Yeah.
Lewis
You're on our December 7th, right?
Mike
Yeah, that. Yeah, that was yesterday. So I. You want to hear a funny? So I was stationed out in Hawaii, and me and my buddy are down in Waikiki, and this was like, O5. And, you know, there's a lot of Japanese tourists that come to Hawaii. So we're in Waikiki, and this guy walks up to us, and it's like, excuse me, sir, can you please direct us to Arizona Memorial? And my buddy's hammered. I'm pretty drunk. And he goes, yeah, it's right where you left it.
Jimmy
What? Jimmy.
Mike
Is it like Timmy?
Lewis
That's the Theo Vaughn.
Mike
Jimmy.
Lewis
Jimmy. When he does the accent.
Yeah, Bobby.
Jimmy
And that's like. I mean, I think we're doing. What I'm trying to do is the crossover that hasn't been done yet with podcasts, because comedians and comedian podcasts get. They get a pass. They really do. No one looks at him as like, that's racist. I can't believe he did that. Because it's funny. You can't really cancel a comedian unless he does something that no one else has ever done, and then it's up for debate.
Lewis
Like the Cinnabon lady.
Jimmy
The what?
Mike
Well, I was thinking more along the lines, who was that guy that jerked off into a plant in front of a lady? That comedian.
Jimmy
Oh, see? Well, he's a sexual predator, I think. CK Lewis. CK No, I'm Thinking more along the lines of, like, Shane Gillis, like, he made an Asian joke that was like on a podcast. Not even. And they canceled him for it. Like he lost his SNL shot. Like he's back. Well, yeah, he's back. And, and that's the whole thing is now he's crazy.
Lewis
You're right. Because look at the roasts. You go to like Tom Brady roast. They absolutely racist. Everything comes out and no one cares. Jewish jokes, racist jokes. Julian Edelman, Nobody. Yeah, nobody cares. Because a whole room full of people broadcast on Netflix. But because they said it's okay, it's okay. So it just, it is very interesting. What is okay? Because you had the mayor of Chicago called somebody racist the other day for basically saying your city's got a bunch of black people shooting each other. And that was racist.
Jimmy
You got it.
Lewis
The mayor of New York. We haven't had a mayor of Chicago.
Mike
We haven't had a Chicago Death update.
Lewis
I got it. We used to do that on hand.
Mike
Let's see how, how bad is it? Chirac, by the way, we need to get an I4 death toll because it.
Lewis
Was very slow weekend in Chicago. Five killed and 13 wounded. Just a moderate.
Mike
So half a platoon.
Jimmy
We lost a squad.
Lewis
But, but it was brought up to the, it was brought up by a white female reporter to the black mayor. And she was basically saying, do you think it's a problem that your people continue to shoot each other?
Jimmy
Does she mean Chicagoans or did she mean black people?
Lewis
Whatever she wanted.
Mike
She meant.
Lewis
What she meant people that are how you take, shoot people. Yeah, I, I, I, that's, I mean, whoever's shooting each other. Because I actually have a really good video, but I have to rewatch it to see if we can play it.
Jimmy
Yeah, I watched a reel with Heather and it, I knew what they were doing as soon as they did it. They said, you know, I hate the fact that they're this, they're that, they're this, they're that just going off all these adjectives. And you're sitting here thinking, oh, my God, this, this is, this guy can't put this on. This is the most racist thing in the world. And he goes, notice how I never said who I was talking about. That's in your head. And I was like, that was genius.
Mike
Dude, that's, it's so bad.
Lewis
I think we can play this one. Yeah, I sent it to you. It's a Chicago related reel. If not somebody else made it. So I didn't make it. Yeah, it's on The Internet. It's on the Internet.
Mike
We're over here talking about.
Jimmy
Do we have any token guys, is. Is job black?
Lewis
Can you get that video, Louis?
Mike
I don't know, but I know CC is.
Jimmy
Oh, we have. Well, he's. Is he half black? Is there some kind of Dominican in him or.
Mike
He's Puerto Rican.
Jimmy
Oh, we had some super chats. Why are you pulling that up? I want to just.
Lewis
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Jimmy
Louis, CC said Crystal from Cinnabon is at 102k rate.
Lewis
That's what I'm talking about. Crystal from. You didn't see that one?
Jimmy
No, we've done that one. We can't.
Lewis
No, we can't play that.
Mike
We can't.
Lewis
It's got full blown N word and.
Mike
We don't have domino.
Lewis
See, he's okay if he encounters two Somalians. I don't know the backstory, but she flat out drops it, drops it again. They're like, you're gonna be famous. She's like, perfect. I can't wait. Like. And her GoFundMe is at $102,000.
Jimmy
Is she arrested or something? She got fired.
Lewis
C for Cinnabon. They fired her. Oh, she said.
Mike
Yeah, she said, I'm. I'm going out. She knew what she was done.
Lewis
Trash tearing, trash out, the whole thing. She did this. She did the dx. Suck it.
Wyatt
Are you.
Lewis
She went all in, man.
Mike
That's old school right there. That's that.
Jimmy
And she's got a. She's got a $102,000. Are we doing wrong?
Lewis
But they usually cancel these. Yeah, because it's racist to say and racist to donate to her. I don't know how long it's going.
Jimmy
To last, but you better draw that money.
Lewis
Go fund me and sometimes Crystal here and I got a video about Chicago if you want to play that.
Jimmy
Oh, no, wait, wait. Dylan says, God bless you all in the chat. Thanks, Dylan. Thanks, cc.
Lewis
All right, here's a recent tour of.
Jimmy
Chicago is the east edge of Garfield Park.
Lewis
This black is controlled by one of the older crews.
Jimmy
You can see the tags on the brickwork marking their territory.
Mike
Those pops you hear are most likely 9 millimeters.
Lewis
So that's your tour.
Jimmy
That it?
Lewis
Yeah. You go to Chicago, you can get a tour of Garfield Park. Garfield park is one of the most dangerous places in Chicago. To give you an idea, it's give.
Mike
Send, go, by the way.
Lewis
Okay, There you go. Garfield park.
Has.
22 dead and 120 wounded this year. Just. Just in one small.
Mike
I'm talking. There's an area like, like Mary.
Lewis
It'd be like small little town, one little community. Austin is the worst. Austin, Illinois. No, Austin, Illinois. Chicago has 48 killed and 130 wounded. And right next door is. I mean if you look at the red.
Mike
We just lost a company in there.
Yeah.
Lewis
You can't say anything. The mayor got called out for your people shooting people and it was racist.
Jimmy
Racist.
Mike
I mean the reporter, the mayor called the reporter racist.
Jimmy
Black, right?
Lewis
Yes. And the, and the commissioner of the police.
Jimmy
I don't know what's worse. Black politicians that don't help the black community or white politicians that are clearly not going to help the community.
Mike
Well, I mean, at least I'm more sympathetic to the, the, the black politicians.
Jimmy
Look, what happens to our view count when we start doing anything fun?
Mike
We do anything. Yeah.
Jimmy
We go mundane. Let's talk about China. Let's talk about this.
Lewis
Yeah.
Mike
Ye. I mean like if you're a, if you're a black politician, you have a vested interest in keeping its status quo because then you can make promises, you never gotta keep them.
Jimmy
I say yes, I say that. I, I see what you're saying. You're right. Because it's politician.
Lewis
Yeah.
Jimmy
The only politician that has a chance of making change in a place like that is really credibility wise. Got to be black. Right. I mean, am I wrong?
Lewis
Right. But to look at the statistics in Chicago and say this year, this year in the, in this. In the city of Chicago, 344 people have been shot and killed.
Mike
That dude. If we, we had a year like that in Iraq, 300. And it was a terrible.
Lewis
1500 and 15 people have been shot. Individual people.
Mike
What's these numbers compared to officers killed in the line?
Jimmy
No, this year let's, let's do like the worst year on gy.
Mike
Okay.
Lewis
Let's.
Jimmy
And compare it to Chicago numbers.
Lewis
Close but in the fact. And who shot people in Muslim shot American soldiers.
Jimmy
Right?
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
Very clear.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
No racism. No. No war. Okay. This is black people shooting black people. And if you highlight that you are a racist, that is the problem that you have a mayor that can hide when everything gets tough and you start to ask me questions, you're like, oh God, you people are dying. I can't keep up with our police everywhere.
Jimmy
Racist.
Lewis
That's it. You're racist. I'm done, I'm done answering. Now that, now that reporter is getting looked at by everybody else in the room like, oh, you're racist. Like clearly not.
Mike
So the two worst years in Iraq were pretty close. It was 07 right when the surge started, and 04 right when the insurgency started getting bad. And it was around 850 killed.
Jimmy
850American service members killed.
Mike
That's right.
Lewis
And we got half of that one.
Mike
City, double that wounded.
Lewis
Okay, so we've got half of that in one sit. And that's like, Chicago's not even the worst. Chicago gets the most heat because of. I. Obviously, it's a. It's just a popular place. There's a guy that actually keeps his statistics. But, like, New Orleans. New Orleans is worse. Baltimore's worse. St. Louis, all that area, they're worse when it comes to per capita. And they're all predominantly black neighborhoods. And it's like you. If you say that you're a race.
Jimmy
New Orleans is historically bad.
Lewis
You cannot wander off of Bourbon street in Orlando. You will be dead. You are done. It's terrible. The cops are all corrupt.
Jimmy
And that was all.
Lewis
The cops were in on it.
Jimmy
That was. That got worse after the hurricane, right?
Lewis
Yes, yes. So it's. It's.
Jimmy
The cops are in on it.
Lewis
Oh, yeah. They have most corrupt cops. There was a.
Jimmy
You go meth.
Lewis
Not that you go back to, like, indictments and stuff. They had, like, whole 10, 12, 15 cops indicted for, like, organized crime.
Mike
I mean, so 2008, when we were there. Yeah, 314.
Lewis
Okay, so more people died in Chicago this year than died in 2008 at a real war.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
With IEDs and mortar strikes, all that other stuff going on. Just people in one city in America shooting each other for no reason.
Mike
EFPs, by the way, was the biggest killer that year.
Lewis
It's not racist. And I think it's time. I think it's time to take a stand. I mean, with everything that's being seen now, is there racist stuff online? Yes, there are, but a lot of this, like you said, comedy is one out, but just common sense, like, it's. It's. It's time.
Jimmy
You're not gonna ever see us go full Nick Fuentes. We don't. We're not really at all that edgy. None of us are racist. None of us are anti Semitic. But I mean, it's funny and it's. The statistics don't lie. Comedy's fun. When.
Lewis
Here's my point.
Jimmy
When black people stop shooting each other is not funny, by the way.
Lewis
No, but when black people stop making fun of it, then we all have to.
Jimmy
If there's.
Lewis
There's black comedians, there's black influencers, black guys on Instagram that just annihilate Their own race with jokes.
Jimmy
We have to stop. If they stop.
Lewis
I think I'm saying I don't have to stop, but I'm saying if it's okay for them to do it. It doesn't. You can't just say, well, I can do this because I'm xyz. If you're going to put it on the Internet for everybody to just like the music argument. If you're going to produce this music and send it out, you're telling me I can't sing that song because I'm white? Because you decided to put lyrics and then put it on the radio and then I gotta, like, beat myself out? Yeah, it's the same thing. If you're gonna mock, why is it okay for, like, white is wide open. You can't go, well, I'm white. I eat these icebreakers, and I'm the only one that can make that joke. Or I eat.
Mike
You know.
Lewis
You know, you can't. You can't do that. I'm sure it's.
Mike
That's. That's as edgy as we are right there.
Jimmy
But you can't.
Lewis
But whites can be made fun of by everybody. We are the. Okay, yeah, you can make fun of us for being racist. You can make fun of us for being too smart. You can make fun of us for not caring. You make fun of us for not.
Jimmy
Killing each other in record numbers. I mean, whatever you want.
Lewis
Whatever you want to make fun. But it's. It's absolutely acceptable for every single race on the. On earth to make fun of the white male, white female. It's okay.
Mike
Even though we pretty much built the western world.
Lewis
Oh, boy.
Mike
But, I mean, I'll. I'll die on that hill.
Lewis
But then. But it's not okay to say anything about anybody else that inherently goes back to your original point, which is we have to be able to talk about things. We have to be able to discuss things. And it's. You can't limit my ability to talk about something just because your skin is different colored doesn't have anything to do with.
Jimmy
You don't think it's anything like veterans. If you're not a veteran, you can't make fun of veterans. Only veterans.
Mike
I, I still. I completely disagree that mentality, too.
Lewis
I mean, disagree.
Mike
I mean, like, because me and me. And that doesn't stop you from catching an ass whooping on the. The Marine Corps birthday. If you go out there and talk about Marines in front of a bunch of drunk Marines, like, you're probably gonna, you know, catch a Two piece. Yeah, but like, you can say what you want. Just be prepared for the consequences. By the way, when I looked up all that information. Tell me AI isn't listening. It brought up all the statistics for 2505. What for KIAs in Iraq.
Jimmy
Oh, for.
Mike
When I, When I put it in there, it was like, and here's 2505.
Jimmy
Oh, my old battalion. Yeah.
That's crazy.
Mike
I didn't know you were in 2505. But that's what it brought up.
Lewis
It's just, it just, it just.
Gays like all this stuff. It's like if you isolate it and say you can't talk again, you can't talk about us. It doesn't mean it's not First Amendment.
Clint
I'm.
Lewis
I'm back to the First Amendment and the First Amendment is what it is. You can't suppress speech now. Threats, terroristic threats. That gets let go too, though, because antifa. Antifa. How to say antifa. Antifa. Antifa. Can say.
Mike
Say it, however, is going to be most offensive.
Lewis
Kathy Griffin made a dollar Trump getting murdered. Like you can be a certain person comedian, all those things. You can say the most ridiculous things incite violence or say things violent and you're okay. It just seems like the regular old white guy. You can't say it.
Jimmy
I believe that if you have a mindset of being un cancelable and you also truly are un cancelable when you're not driven by money and you're only driven by ideas and you're not worried about sponsors, you're not worried.
Mike
That's the Trump argument. That's what got him elected right there.
Jimmy
Yeah. If you're not wor. If you can't be canceled, you. It will be a longer road, but you will. Your idea can't be shut down. I mean, look at. We say his name now. Gypsy crusader. The most. Probably the most extreme person right now on the Internet. I remember seeing his videos, but every time he would pop up, he'd be shut down and they were fan pages sharing it. And now two years later, he's on podcasts.
Lewis
Yes.
Jimmy
And so I'm not saying his idea is good at all. I'm just saying he has an idea and he does not care what happens to him. He doesn't. And you can't. That's why he's a joker and there's all of his makeups. Because you can't. In his mind, you can't stop him.
Lewis
And he is. It's extreme and it's preached his way. But my Point is, is if you take a group of people and we walk up to a group of skinny white dudes with their shirts off, standing on bikes looking disheveled, you'll be like, there's a bunch of meth addicts.
Mike
Right.
Lewis
Completely not going to be like, especially.
Mike
If we're in Ocala and if you.
Lewis
Walk up to a group of black guys, pants sagging, dread wearing covers on their face, and you are going to.
Jimmy
Go to another gas station, you're.
Lewis
Yes. You're going to be like, those dudes are probably maybe gang members. I'm not saying it's called.
Jimmy
Everybody's called survival. I mean, I think if, like, if you were. If you were a gazelle and you needed to go where gazelle goes, you. If you see a bunch of lions over there, you're gonna go, I'm not gonna go buy those lions. I'm gonna go a different way. I think. Is that not. Is that too much?
Mike
No, no, no. Actually, I. I have a. I have a cop question because this is.
Lewis
This is guilty.
Mike
Yeah.
So you guys had worked in different locations around where your jurisdiction was, Right. When you were working there in the place that you worked the longest at night, did you know the people? Did you know what to look for?
Lewis
Of course.
Jimmy
Okay.
Mike
Probably news. Probably arrested some of these guys before. Okay.
Jimmy
Of course.
Mike
So it. And so if you are driving by and you're a police officer, you can look and go, I know that guy. I arrested that guy two weeks ago. I know exactly what's going down right now. And drive up and go, hey, man. And that's. Is that PC enough or do you need.
Jimmy
No, there's actually a lot of case laws that protect from obvious like. Well, Mike's got way more experience than me. But there is things. What is it called when on flight Run.
Lewis
Yeah. Well, we debate that, my wife and I, but it's flight upon site of law enforcement.
Jimmy
But what's that called?
Lewis
What's resisting?
Jimmy
No, no, no, no, no. There's a. There's a thing we. It's. It's a case law.
Lewis
Terry versus Ohio.
Jimmy
No, it's.
It's one of them where essentially same gas station, same old faces, same old behaviors. If I pull up and they take off running, there are certain areas that are designated. It's okay. It's okay. So let's say the gas station down there on the right. Me and my squad have documented throughout the years, and it's just been historically documented as a crime area where all kinds of crimes happening. And I pull up and they take off running. I can chase after them based off those statistics. Now, from the, the second I put handcuffs on to the trial of guilty, I have to be able to articulate why with these analytics. And now if I just, if I, but if I, if I just get assigned there, I don't talk to anybody and I see a bunch of black dudes with the pants hanging and I go, and they. That happens. It's going to get thrown out. There's not enough PC. They have to do something else. God, what is that called?
Mike
So, I mean, but that.
Lewis
He's right. And it, and it's, it's, it's. I look at it, I like using the word statistics. Now, statistically, I can tell you that XYZ crime happened in this area historically at a high rate. And you're right. I see that guy have arrested him. I see that guy arrested him. Does it make him guilty every time I see him? No, but it's going to heighten your awareness of, like, I know this guy usually carries a gun. I've seen, I've chased him before, and he's thrown a gun while I was chasing him or his brother or his cousin. Okay, so, but if, at the same time, if you go to.
I don't know.
The Hamptons.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
You go out on Long island to the Hamptons and you get out of gas station and you try to pull that there, it's not going to be the same.
Jimmy
Everybody in the chats is, Wardlow, Wardlow, Wardlow.
Lewis
But it, it just, it's statistics. And if you tell me I can't be nervous.
Based on statistics. That's crap. That's just like a baseball game. The best hitter in the game comes up and he's statistically hits the fastball 500 miles. I'm throwing curveballs or I'm gonna, I'm gonna walk him. I'm not gonna let him beat me when statistics show if I throw him a fastball, he's gonna knock it 550ft out of the park. The same thing goes, if I know that this area has that stuff, I'm not going to go there.
Mike
So if, if you can do that as a cop and it's okay to do that under certain circumstances, and we, we look at that and we go, well, that's not racist. That's just statistics.
Jimmy
Why can't you do it?
Mike
Can't we do it as a civilian? That's the point that I'm trying.
Jimmy
We do. And I think, though, your point is that we all do do it. It's just not okay to say it because it's not PC. Political correctness is what will ruin a society. Will. Political correctness will destroy anything that's good because everything good gets hijacked. Right. So political correctness, I am assuming at its formation, maybe there was a morsel of trying to be nice to people, which is fine.
Mike
I think it was. It was literally just like, hey, don't be rude.
Jimmy
Yeah, right.
Mike
And that went from, hey, don't be rude to you're rud, so you're mean. And then it became, well, what is the definition of rude? Well, it's not politically correct.
Jimmy
That's.
Mike
That, to me, is the genesis of all that. I would love to go down the entomology of all of that.
Jimmy
There's the Jimmy word.
Lewis
And here's my statistics again with the last three inches. We saw the bus fire.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
And. Or two. And the. The girl getting stabbed. Sitting on the bus in an inner city area. And a disheveled black dude gets on looking like one of those two dudes. Are you not going to be like this dude? The whole bus is empty and this dude sits in the seat directly behind you?
Jimmy
Well, it's not.
Lewis
Are you going to feel a certain way.
Jimmy
And here's the thing, is that you. What we're talking about is everyone's feeling for you. For that to happen and someone to go.
He might just be an old black dude. Most likely, he's just an old black dude getting on the train. But because of everything now we're all. But that's like saying, I don't carry a gun because most people aren't going to hurt me.
Lewis
Correct.
Jimmy
So having that reserve, you know, because.
Lewis
If a white dude with tattoos all over his face looking like, I would feel the same way, like, man, why is this.
Jimmy
Okay, let's do this. We're talking before the show, right. Me and Mike are talking. I mean, you were there. I don't know if you heard it. And we're talking about some future shows that we have planned and some maybe guests that might come on those shows. And I looked at Mike and I said, are you sure it's okay to have these people in the studio, but. Because they're criminals. They're criminals, and I don't even know these people. And I'm. I'm being wary of people that have had history or fit the mold. Yeah.
Mike
And. And so, I mean, I, I, dude, I mean, this segues us perfectly to the Somalis. I'm sorry.
Jimmy
My favorite meme right now. It's so bad. It's so bad. It's a picture. Oh, my God. It's a, it's, it's a picture of the Blackhawk down movie poster, and it just says mife. You guys seen it? Yes. Describe it.
Mike
It's great.
Jimmy
I, I, I don't want to. If I had it to put up there, I would, but it's just, if it's me just saying it, somebody could clip it. But it's hilarious.
Mike
I mean, because that's how people.
Jimmy
And you what? My favorite thing. Can you make sure canine has that link?
Mike
Which one is Alex? Okay.
Jimmy
I send it to the Rob person.
Lewis
Maybe I have a special guest today.
Some random dude.
Jimmy
But this is how you know something's off when it, When a viral reel has.
250,000 shares and only 18,000 likes.
Lewis
Yes.
Jimmy
That means people don't want to be seen liking it, but they're sharing it to other people because they believe it. Right. I mean, it's just.
Lewis
Well, because it's funny.
Jimmy
I mean, and it's funny because it's true.
Mike
Well, you know, so I was watching the Sean Ryan podcast, and I'm watching Mike Durant, who. And he's talking about after he got back from Somalia, the. One of the envoys of Muhammad Farah. ID wanted to meet with him. He's still in the army. He's still in TF160.
And he goes, I, I was sitting there waiting for this guy to show up, and in walks this Somali. He goes, if you've ever seen Somalis, they have a very specific look. You know exactly what it is. And we have. Before the, the current time, I would have been like, I have no idea. But now we got Somalis everywhere in the United States. They all look the same. It's like, ah, that guy, Somali, I'm your cup. And now, yeah, it's wild. So, I mean, you can, I mean, here's a guy who's a special Forces guy, and it's like, I know exactly.
Lewis
What Somalis look like. It'd be equivalent of us. And we're very, we disagree a lot. It would be the equivalent of us never saying a cop does anything wrong no matter what. If. Even if a guy pulls his gun out, shoots somebody illegally, we're like, you guys hate cops. You're just cop hater.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
You're like, bro, he just pulled his gun out for no reason and shot an instant person. It doesn't matter. You just hate cops.
Jimmy
How dare you bring this?
Lewis
That's kind of dangerous. When do These guys not have eyes. Like, all day on the Internet is like mass shootings, shootings in the middle of the street, shooting at these birthday parties, dairy queen shooting. 11 shot, four dead.
Jimmy
And it's gone past. It's gone past.
Blaming law enforcement for not taking action and blaming. Now you're just. You have to start blaming the people doing it. And if you don't want to blame the people because it's all they know, then that's fine. Then you got to start blaming the people culture. And if you don't want to blame the culture because it's all the culture knows, then you got to start looking at generations of democratic oppression on these cities. That's all the government wants. And you can't stop. I'm a. I'm a believer. If. If a kid's 14 years old and doesn't know how to shower and wipe his ass and he acts like a savage animal and is shooting people at 14 years old, he's probably not going to get it right. But then you got people. His dad. Well, I learned it from my dad, okay? So that you can't break the chain with him. So maybe it's a cultural thing. And then you. You can't change an entire culture overnight. So you have to look at why it's a cultural thing. These people have. I. I used to arrest people that have never been outside the city of Orlando. They don't know. They don't know it's a mystical land to them outside of the hood that they grew up in. It's insane.
Lewis
Here's. Here's my. Here. One more thing before we go to K9. If it was a race thing, everybody stand together. Every conservative black politician is immediately considered an Uncle Tom or sellout. When he gets on TV and says, hey, we should probably try doing this a different way. He's gone. We're not sticking with our race on that guy like Candace Owens or any of these other guys that are that. That are black, that are in conservative. Have conservative views, they're immediately outcast by their own people. And therefore the skin color doesn't even.
Mike
Marry inside the races.
Lewis
It doesn't mean anything.
Jimmy
But the problem is, is that the black people we're talking about. I sound like Nick Fuentes right now, but it's that I'm dead serious. We have to be very clear in what we're talking about. We're talking about black conservatives that want to make change. I'll even go say black football players that go back into their original hood and try to make Change. That's great. So you have them, and then between them and the actual people that need the change, there's the gatekeepers. They're probably black people, probably middle class. Probably some white Karens in there saying that they can't be what they want to be. They can't be. They're stopping the conservative idea of change in these communities before he can even get to the people that need to change.
Mike
Dude.
You know, I had a lot.
Jimmy
Of coffee this morning.
Mike
I. I can tell. You're. You're.
Jimmy
Am I making sense?
Lewis
No, you're making sense to me. Racism means you don't like anyone.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
So if you associate, like, to me, when you.
Jimmy
When.
Lewis
If you take the word back to what it was, that means nobody. Not like one person here. That guy's. You listen to. You brought the gypsy crusader up. None. He don't like no. Any.
Jimmy
And he was.
Lewis
And he'll say, even to Aiden Ross, who was Jewish, he's like, well, I'm pretty cool. He's like, no, I hate you. I'm on your show. I hate you. You're. You're Jewish. I don't.
Jimmy
He says, express.
Lewis
Yeah, I wish you were. He says, I wish you died in the gas chamber. He said right to his face. On a podcast that this dude's hosting. He's like, me, right? I'm here. Here you are. That is racist. That is somebody who under no circumstances is the opposite race or that Jewish religion. Anybody in it is. Okay.
Jimmy
Oh, yeah, I see it.
Lewis
We're in trouble.
Jimmy
Yep.
Mike
We got the blur back.
Jimmy
Lewis, is Google Chrome open?
Lewis
No, he was diligently working this morning. I give it to you. But anyway, it would be everybody. It wouldn't be just selective.
Jimmy
Yeah, no, that makes sense.
Mike
Man, this sucks.
Lewis
Why?
Mike
What is the problem here?
Lewis
Last week it went fine.
Jimmy
Yeah, man, I cut the best reel of all time and it's blurry.
Lewis
Yeah, everything's closed. Right, Lewis?
Let's do that real quick.
Jimmy
I. Yeah, I have to do better at crashing out. Everybody tries very hard on the show. They do a great job. And they've been counter. They've been.
You know, last show, we literally had to end it and start again, which destroys analytics. It destroys any type of.
Data that we have to bring to people to show the progress of the show. When you take a live and you cut it in two, the data analytics are not usable. They're just gone. So ideally, we don't do that again.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
But we've done everything. This is. This is where my conspiracy starts to kick in because.
It worked fine for years. There's no problems. And now all of a sudden, it's. We got rid of it. We came back last week. It was fine. I don't. I don't understand. It's not the Internet. It's not.
Mike
I don't know.
Jimmy
Is it the nsa?
Lewis
I don't know. Well.
Jimmy
Let'S bring on canine while we try to figure out this issue.
Lewis
He'll be clear.
Mike
At least he's making.
Jimmy
He'll be clear.
Mike
Yeah, he's been canine. Big.
Jimmy
Do you have service where you are?
Somewhat. Not the greatest, but I'm here. I'm live, baby. Let's go.
All right, let's recap. Yesterday we didn't do terrible on your lock.
Lewis
No, we didn't know.
Jimmy
He did really well, I think. I think I did about 80, man. So.
Mike
80.
Jimmy
When it comes to sports game.
I'm not gambling this month because my son wants a Nintendo Switch, too, and sometimes I go on a binge. So I'm making sure that Switch 2 shows up from Santa this year. Okay. Don't want to risk it.
You could get them even.
Lewis
Yeah, that's what I always say. You can't bet if you don't bet.
No, we did.
Jimmy
Well, I'm trying to make.
Lewis
The only game I took a beating on was I thought Washington was going to beat, like, they didn't even get close. I got shut out.
Mike
But, oh, I wanted to ask you.
Jimmy
Did you watch the. Was it the. Who played the Steelers yesterday?
Mike
The Ravens.
Jimmy
The Steelers and the Ravens. Was it the Ravens? You're talking about the. You're probably. Honestly, you're bringing up. Yes, the Steelers and the Ravens played yesterday. But if I guess what you're bringing up in the topic you're bringing up is the Denver Broncos and the Las Vegas Raiders. That is what everybody's talking about. Portnoy is going nuts.
Mike
You're a mod from Minecraft.
Pete Hegseth
Anymore?
Jimmy
Can't see you guys right now, but yeah, yeah.
Mike
It is. Right? As soon as we send the link. As soon as we send the link and somebody's in waiting, it get. It drops out.
Jimmy
Is it the link? I don't know.
Mike
But like.
Jimmy
All right, bring him and we're gonna come back. It could be. It could.
It could be Rick Scott coming back after me. I'm sorry, Rick Scott. Don't come after me again. Remove him.
All right.
Mike
He'll get out.
Lewis
Well, he's crystal clear on there.
Jimmy
Yeah. You can't hear him.
Lewis
You can't hear it, but he's not.
Mike
He's just. He looks like he's talking through a voice modulator.
Jimmy
All right, so what are we going to do about this clarity?
We can't. I mean.
I want to try the WI fi.
Mike
It ain't the way the WI fi. No.
Lewis
The only other thing would be eliminate the guests again and go back to using the other program. There's never a problem.
Jimmy
We can't. That's not gonna.
Lewis
The other thing I told Liz was try setting that. Can you go to the. Go to those settings and knock that from the video. Knock that down to 720.
Jimmy
All right, we'll. We'll check it out. And nothing's open. That's. We got two people waiting.
Lewis
Yeah. It's just nothing else.
Jimmy
Yep.
Mike
No. Moss.
Jimmy
Ah.
Mike
What?
Lewis
We do radio.
Mike
Yeah, we could just do radio.
Jimmy
I. I don't know what to do, man, because I. This is the third time we're gonna end it and then they're gonna go, we fixed it. Five minutes later, we fixed it.
Lewis
There's no fixing it. It's not fixed. While we did last time, we shut down everything. Everything is in the exact same status it was when we left last week.
Mike
Was the computer off when you came in this morning? Did you turn it on?
Lewis
I don't know. I didn't turn it on.
Mike
I didn't turn it on.
Jimmy
What do you guys want to do?
Mike
Well, you're. We're not going to be paying attention.
Jimmy
No, I mean, it's has to stop. It doesn't fix itself in real time. Like, I don't know. Could we pause the live stream and then come back to the same live stream?
Mike
I don't know.
Jimmy
Can we.
Mike
Let me find out.
Lewis
I don't think so. We'll just put. The stream will begin soon and.
Jimmy
But that doesn't help it. Like, it's almost like, you know when you had to, like, let it buffer so you can watch a full video with shitty service. You gotta let it buffer so then you can watch it. If you try watching it without it buffering, it's all like this.
But.
Lewis
Oh, man. I mean, I. I think that whole area needs to be redone. We just had that conversation, but we had.
Jimmy
We had the same issues out there. It can't be. It can't.
Lewis
That went fine last week that. This one finally.
Jimmy
No, it went potato last week for like four seconds.
Lewis
It was super fast.
Mike
There is a take a break feature in the live control room in the YouTube live.
Jimmy
Yeah. Yep.
Mike
It's in the YouTube live.
Lewis
Yeah. We can't do that. We're Controlling it with stream yard.
Mike
That's got to be the problem.
Jimmy
Well, you can't go live on YouTube with what we do. You have to have a. We have to have a provider that does the stuff for you. I mean, you can go live on YouTube, but it's just your phone. That's what it's like Patreon.
Mike
So you can't do it from.
Jimmy
You can't do what we do without some kind of provider.
Lewis
Maybe Streamlabs isn't the answer.
I've not had this problem anywhere else.
Mike
You know what you used?
Lewis
Yeah, and I've never had any issues at home.
Mike
That's.
Jimmy
Well, I mean.
Mike
All right, let me. Let me see.
We'll bring on.
Jimmy
While you do that, bring canine back to see if his service is better.
Lewis
No, it's not. Yeah, he's bouncing around. I can see him bouncing around. Don't even do it.
Jimmy
All right.
Mike
And we. We use stream yard, right?
Jimmy
Yep. Stream yard. Yeah.
Mike
And we don't use Stream Lab.
Jimmy
We used to use Streamlabs.
Mike
Streamlab is considered the best.
Jimmy
Yeah, well, the problem is that we don't have a remote capability with that. Lewis sat in here for four hours trying to.
Lewis
And we can't stream to the two chat. Well, I guess we could go back to that here and then just.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
Oh, no. On night shift, we can't stream to both.
Jimmy
I'm researching how I can just do.
Mike
A hybrid approach here.
Jimmy
A hybrid approach using both programs. Oh, that'll complicate it. That'll make it better.
All right, well, we got Wyatt in there still, don't we? Or did he leave?
Lewis
I don't know if he's still there or not.
Jimmy
Can. Can you go to Streamlabs, Lewis? This is where it gets hard producing because you got to do is why it's black. Yep. Okay, well, just. Oh, because it.
Mike
It can only use one at a time.
Jimmy
I'm.
Clint
I'm still trying.
Lewis
We're not gonna be able troubleshoot it. Just get. Let's get Wyatt on. We can put us small and let w. Give us an update. I mean, on the fly.
Jimmy
No, that's Canine. Wyatt.
Mike
Oh, just.
Jimmy
Wyatt, Y.
Are you there?
Lewis
Hello?
Wyatt
Hello?
Jimmy
Hello? Hey, sorry for the. We're having major technical difficulties.
Wyatt
The crash outs are deserved. You've earned it. You guys are getting. Something's going on. Maybe it's just bad luck that coincides with criticizing our greatest, greatest ally.
Mike
You know, that happens.
Wyatt
Space lasers in the swamp gas affecting your. Your signal.
Jimmy
I don't know what it is, man. It's annoying, though. I can't even see you. Is that on purpose or is that.
Wyatt
That's on purpose right now, because I'm. I'm at a training ground, and those have been getting targeted really hard this year, so video is strictly prohibited.
Jimmy
What are. But are you worried that they can't find your. Your location? When you guys use cell phones like this, they can't lock in on where you are. And then, I mean, is that not a thing?
Wyatt
It's less prominent than it used to be. Primarily because now once you get into country, the first thing you do is get a Ukrainian SIM card. Now, if you've got, like, a British, American, Sri Lankan cell phone, whatever, that stands out because Russia does have pretty good signal intelligence. Once you get a Ukrainian phone, you're just. It blends in. And if you're hooked up to a WI Fi or a Starlink. Yeah, they can't tell.
Jimmy
I'd almost risk it right now if they said, hey, you could have perfect video quality, Tyler, but you're at risk of taking missile strikes. I'd be like, send it, because I'm done. Not.
Wyatt
You know what? There's a lot of guys out here that would do the same. You're not alone. You can actually have fun with it. Because if it's a missile, you can hear it.
Mike
Yeah, no joke.
Wyatt
A jet plane. You guys are in Orlando. You have an airport there. Those jets, you hear all the time. Exact same sound as a cruise missile. Identical sound. So you'll hear it coming.
Jimmy
Okay. How's everything else going? You're only in training for one more week or a whole month?
Wyatt
A bit unknown because I've. I'm switching units, but I've already been here for a while. I'm. I probably get to cut out on most of the training.
Jimmy
You get rank where you are.
Wyatt
Depends on what brigade you go to.
Like, brigades are. It's very decentralized. I know guys over in, like, you know, the ground force, International Legion. Three years, almost four. They're still privates. Whereas you can go to 3rd Assault Brigade and be a sergeant within months if you're actually a troop.
Jimmy
The reason why I ask is because I don't know if it's like. It's like anything. Like, you know, when you're a soldier in the U.S. army or an airman, you know, you do 10 or 15 years, you know, in your job, eventually you're trying to get ranked so you could be. Have your own office. Like, with rank comes different responsibilities, and I didn't know if maybe in that world that you're at, if, if even if, let's say you did 15 years over there, is it, are you the same position the whole time or do you like, would you move up and like. And do they, is it battlefield rank again? I know it's like more like contracting. But do they rank you on the battlefield.
Wyatt
Or for citizens or for foreigners?
Jimmy
Because we're kind of on for you foreigners.
Wyatt
For us, I think the highest ranking foreigner I've, I know of is just Sergeant. You know, they earned that. But once you go above that you have to start doing like the professional development courses, taking exams and those are all done in Ukrainian.
Jimmy
Okay.
Wyatt
So that's what, what would hold somebody back. But yeah, typically most guys are going to be a private or a senior private.
Jimmy
Okay.
Wyatt
But Sergeant does happen if. Depends like I said, depends on what unit you go to. Most won't even bother applying you.
Mike
So you guys just had some pretty massive shelling happen in the last couple of days.
Wyatt
Yes, it's been kind of building up for a few weeks. But this past few days there were some big ones. They do it every winter. They want to knock out our energy infrastructure and try to start freezing the population, get people miserable, try to just to spiritually bend us to their will. And they have taken out, I think we're down to three power plants at.
Mike
The moment trying to freeze everybody during the cold ass winter.
Jimmy
Oh shit.
Wyatt
Yeah. If you start getting pensioners and children freezing to death, you know, 100 miles from the front, it, it, that affects public opinion a whole lot.
Jimmy
It does. So you're telling me that images of starving people and freezing people could be used as propaganda and turning the world's tide into opinion.
Mike
What, throw the flag?
Jimmy
No, I get what you're saying though. Yeah. I mean it, that this war, much like any war is, is very based on public opinion and anything that's not going to both sides and the US want it all wanted to go a certain way and be perceived a certain way.
Wyatt
So yeah, and just the citizenry who you know, have not signed up to fight when they start getting hurt, when they start suffering, they start, you know, calling the politicians, hey, look, whatever you're working on, you gotta, you gotta sign it. We want this to stop because you know, the grandparents froze to death and ah, we had a kid just get an amputation from frostbite. It's not worth it anymore and I'm gonna leave my opinions out of their Ukrainian country. I'm not a citizen. I'm not going to tell them how to vote or nothing.
Jimmy
But that's.
Wyatt
That's sort of one of the longer term goals is to just use the winter again against the populace.
Mike
That's. I mean, they. They didn't spend any ordinance on the guys on the front. They fired it all into the inhabited areas.
Oh, yeah.
Wyatt
Power plants, apartment buildings, a dam in Harkiv.
I think they've run out of hospitals to hit. That's normally what they aim for first.
Jimmy
All right, well, hey, why. We're gonna have to cut our conversations a little short. We're gonna take a break and we're not leaving the live feed, but we got to do some troubleshooting. But I really appreciate your update. It's a weekly thing. So.
Are you still doing good over there? You're still. I mean, last time we talked to you, it was a little. We got off the phone, we were like, whoa, what the wrecks? Half the team.
All right, man, well, stay safe. Stay in touch with us on the back end and we'll. We'll see you Monday.
Wyatt
Oh, you know I love your back end. You know I love your back end. I hope this one south.
Mike
I'll.
Wyatt
I have some suggestions. I'll shoot your way. I'm not an IT pro, but I have some ideas. You guys take care. Sanguinius was a mutant who should have been purged.
Mike
You don't. Don't ever say that about our glorious.
Jimmy
Golden Hawk Boy nerds.
All right, what we're doing is we're gonna roll the vengeance commercial because it is past 12 and then we are going to put you back on the. Coming streaming soon. We're gonna try some things out and hopefully that works.
Lewis
So we'll.
Jimmy
But we're not ending the stream, so we'll see you soon. Over a century ago in 1910, the Flexner Report, funded by John D. Rockefeller and the Carnegie foundation, re engineered medical education from a holistic whole body approach which appropriately treated the body as an interconnected system, to a compartmentalized approach under the guise of special specialized medicine. They shut down or consolidated medical schools marginalized naturopathic, homeopathic and chiropractic medicine, replacing them with symptom management and synthetic drugs. Allopathy is a marketing strategy rooted in fear and manipulated science. This philosophy carried into veterinary medicine resulting in over vaccination, unnecessary surgeries and manufactured food. Just like they did for people. They call it care, but it's predatory and based in profitability. The truth. Toxicity, compromised immunity and chronic inflammation. They're not fate, they're engineered.
Lewis
And so is your power.
Jimmy
To undo them, we built three targeted formulas to return the body to homeostasis for pets and people to detox, defend and restore. We are the correct the decades of corruption. We are vengeance.
Lewis
Right now. We're back.
Jimmy
All right. We'll see.
Lewis
Here we are. Are we blurry? That's the new question.
Mike
I'm waiting. I'm waiting for it to pop up.
Jimmy
It's not the worst.
Mike
Hey, can you talk in the mic?
Jimmy
Check one. There we go. Yeah, I couldn't hear you.
Mike
All right, we're back.
Jimmy
So what do we do? We. We're now using Google Chrome for only the streaming. All right.
Lewis
Crystal clear.
Mike
That's correct.
Jimmy
All right. Until next Monday at about noon.
Lewis
Then it'll go down again.
Jimmy
Where were we? Do we want to.
Mike
We're talking to Wyatt.
Jimmy
Yes, we finished that.
Lewis
Where?
Jimmy
Okay, let's. Let's get back on track. Yeah.
Mike
Get back on the bike.
Lewis
I don't know if he's still around. We can try him.
Jimmy
Let's do some sponsors. Flatline Fiber Company.
Go to flatlinefiber company.com flatlinefiberco.com use promo code ANTI or 15 they 15% off your rifle slings, IFAX dump pouches and baseline bags. They are a very good company. Lots of people have bought from them using our promo code and they all have great things to say. We're very close with the owner.
They're all made in America with a lifetime warranty trusted by SWAT teams, high level military units and police agencies across the globe. They make gear that you can trust. Flatline fiber code.com use promo code ANTIHERO15 that tells them that Antihera sent you and maybe we can get some new Internet.
Lewis
And our boys over at Violent Provisions veteran and law enforcement owned operated apparel company geared toward geared towards the violent professional. Stickers, hats, heavyweight hoodies. They just ran a really successful pre order. So there's other merch is over there on their site. Violent Provisions.com use code ANTI HERO for 15 off. And our newest sponsor, 96.
Lewis. Oh yeah, 96. It's a modern AI powered web app built exclusively police officer across the United States. You upload your traffic citation, it instantly produces a professional court read testimony for accurate structured. No typing, no formatting, no second guessing. It automatically adapts the requirements of the officer's jurisdiction. So go over to check out 96 app. You get a free demo over there and a free membership. Make sure you tell them the Anti Hero boy sent you. Very good group of guys out of NYPD that started that apps active Cops, small business owners.
Jimmy
All right, let's get to it. Let's start with P. Heg Seth. He is the man. He is a bro.
But I. I have so Essen now did a very, very, very funny skit. And one of my criticism of Saturday Night Live, not that it matters, because they're a billion dollar business, but everybody kind of knew it. They went a little too far left. Yeah. When Trump won the presidency the first time, I think they calmed down once he was gone. And then when he came back, I think they went a new angle because they realized that they're just bitching and complaining and crying about the. Right.
Mike
You look like a bunch of sad theater kids. Shut the up.
Jimmy
And so they recently picked on Pete Hegseth. I guess he just did a press conference. Yeah. Which I wish I had the actual press conference, but it's no way. Nearly as entertaining as snl. And we've covered P. Hex Seth a lot on this show. I believe in what he's doing. It is the pivot that's needed in our. In our military.
He's very direct. He's very blunt. And I guess there's rumors circulating that Trump doesn't take his advisement.
Mike
Yeah. I mean, there's. Trump's doing a lot of other things. He probably doesn't really. First of all, Pete Hexeth came out of the green room at Fox News. Okay.
Jimmy
That's.
Mike
I mean. Yeah. Okay. Was it. Look, not taking anything away from him. As a vet, he's a. He's a fellow infantryman. Got his cib. He went on deployment. He was a platoon leader and a company commander. You know, Marines are Army National Guard.
Jimmy
Okay.
Mike
Yeah. So he. And so he's, you know, he's been down range. He's seen it, but he. That's why he's a bro. He was a freaking Pl.
Lewis
Is it wasn't the last guy. Bad dog. Didn't him and Trump have the same problem?
Mike
So Mattis. Mattis was different. Mattis was.
Jimmy
Gave me VFW vibes. My way or the highway. It's the old way.
Mike
Yeah. And he had very much a vested interest. Because, remember, when you get to that point, when you're a major combatant commander, you know, you're in charge of CENTCOM or, you know, your. Your com or PAYCOM or any of those comms, you. You end up shaking hands with a lot of these people in NATO and everything else. So from his perspective, NATO was a good thing. And from Trump's perspective, he's. He.
Mattis didn't understand what Trump was trying to do. Trump was trying to shame people and scare people into getting into NATO and giving, you know, putting at least 5% of your GDP into defense and make sure you're helping us. And Mattis was like, Whoa, NATO's important. Because Trump was saying, like, let's get rid of NATO.
Jimmy
NATO.
Mike
It's stupid. We don't need NATO anymore. Right. And that's not. If you know Trump now. We do. Like, he probably didn't mean that. He's probably just saying to get a reaction.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
So.
Jimmy
And I mean, he's p. I mean, if you have to pick somebody to represent the military, obviously you're gonna get people with, like, way more special operations experience. But they're retards on camera. We've had them on here. They just don't know how to talk. And their lifestyle, they're not. They're not even considered for politics because of their lifestyle. And so it really brings numbers down to a Fox News guy who can be a correspondent. Obviously, they toyed around with Tim Kennedy. The world didn't want him. You know, is Pete Hegseth probably the best candidate? He brings to most to the table with experience, and he has all that showmanship, that Fox News face, that hair.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
That ability to talk.
Mike
Got tattoos.
Jimmy
Yeah. He's relatable.
Mike
You know, he. He's over there pounding rip its before the freaking. That's. That. That happened.
Jimmy
That happened.
Lewis
Yeah.
Mike
He's gonna rip it. Yeah, he was pounding a. Rip it before he freaking went on.
Jimmy
Yeah. He's just very relatable. And it's war. It's not meant to be nice. It's not meant to be cozy. It's not meant to be delivered softly. War is war, no matter how you talk about it. So let. Hey, Lewis. Oh, first off, before we get into that, you have. Is your camera on, Lewis? No. How much?
Okay.
All right. I want it to be known that this show could not operate without Lewis back there. So none of us could do this show. I joke, I make jokes. Like, we always blame Lewis. Blame Lewis for everything. But he works his ass off, like, and like everybody here, he does not get paid a lot of money to do it. And he's here on time every day. And so just wanted to give a shout out to this.
Mike
Always got a good attitude, always ready to work.
Lewis
You know what this reminds me of? When your mom beats your ass in the room. And that brings you out in the living room and tells everybody out in the living room how great you are as a Kid, kid. And you just got your ass whooped. You know that meme that he just beat me with a belt a little while ago.
Mike
You guys seen that, that, that, that parakeet meme where it's like, you know, you got the mom, that's all, and then the little baby.
Jimmy
So if you guys could give shout outs to Lewis. Obviously we see you guys all the time give a shout out to this, but this, this whole operation could not go without Lewis. He's very, very.
Lewis
With or without what?
It wouldn't go up or down. It goes down sometimes because of Lewis, but most of the time it's going up. So anyway, I don't get mad at him like you do.
Jimmy
You get, I don't get mad.
Mike
I just.
I'll be honest.
Lewis
Put the camera on you. Who gets the most mad?
Mike
Hard to tell.
Lewis
Who says the most.
Mike
Mike is the one that explains a lot.
Lewis
Lot of. I'm talking about when, when the things aren't going well.
Dad, that's you.
Jimmy
Okay, now put the camera on me. Who says the most without saying anything when he goes like this?
Lewis
Because I have to now deal with this, this.
Mike
Your dad's mad.
Lewis
We're just gonna cancel a show halfway through every week. It's gonna keep happening.
Mike
And your older brother is over here. Like, I'm staying out of the line.
Lewis
Of brother over there is like, at.
Jimmy
Least it's not me this time.
Lewis
I, I, I don't think it's, it's. We're being being tracked. They're on us.
Jimmy
They are honest.
Lewis
They're on us.
Jimmy
That being said, let's go show nsl. Nsl. SNL covered the Pete Hegseth thing and it's hilarious. It's only seven minutes. If you haven't seen it, watch it with us.
Mike
Where do I find it?
Couldn't have script. Dude, the, the comedic timing on that, man.
Jimmy
Like in the email, it's, it's from me and it says link. Oh my God.
Mike
Oh my God, oh my God.
Lewis
I had it open and then I closed it. So that reminds me of my meme I made where the guy sitting in the back of a car with a stupid look on his face and it says, when do I tell my FTO that my gun's still in the jail? He's just sitting there looking forward like he's yelling at me about my report. I haven't told him my gun's still in the jail.
Mike
I left without it.
Lewis
It's on it now. Yeah. What are we doing? The mouse isn't moving.
Jimmy
There we go boom, boom. Oh, yeah, you already had it up. Yeah, there we go.
Lewis
Hey, Netflix, we're for sale too.
Press conference with the secretary.
Jimmy
Can you make it close for me? Yeah, yeah.
Pete Hegseth
Ladies and gentlemen of the press, as.
Mike
You know, there have been concerns about.
Pete Hegseth
Ongoing military action off the coast of Venezuela. Here to answer all your questions in.
Jimmy
A calm fashion and then bring us up full. Okay, what is it? Are we not even entertaining the idea that. We all know it's a regime change and then this Venezuelan drug boat thing to save American lives from drugs is obviously a ploy to go like that. I'm assuming that's something we all know, right?
Mike
No, I mean anybody that oil. Anybody knows, like, is it the American.
Jimmy
Public that doesn't know what we know? Like, maybe like 98 of people don't think like that.
Lewis
Even my town, on a small level, people just, they don't, they don't pay attention.
Mike
I, I think it's really much more of that. It's people that aren't really paying attention. I mean, they're like, yeah. I mean like people are drive by news people. They're like, yeah, okay, this is what's going on. But I mean, if I wasn't on this show before I came on, I would go like a week or two without knowing what was going on because I just, I was too busy with my life, man.
Jimmy
I mean, because the. We introduced crack cocaine into the streets of America. We look at our border, we do not give a what comes in here. We don't, as a government, we don't care about saving Americans from drugs. That wall would be a thousand feet high and we'd have the entire out there. We would. They don't care about drugs. They care about control and they care about swaying things. So I, obviously it's alleged, yeah. That we introduced crack cocaine into the 90s, into the inner cities.
Mike
But I meant all now. So, I mean, it's not that much alleged because of, you know, the Contras and everything else. I mean, like, like the CIA was using drugs. Some of the first cartel members were. Were sponsored by the CIA to sell these drugs so that they could make money, so that they could do black operations.
Lewis
Like, how about this for the two parts? You have everybody that gets all worked up about the news and then why not just say, like I said earlier, just go live your life. You know what the government's doing, you know what they're going to do. Do you get that obsessed and crazy that you ruin the 75 maybe years. Luckily you have here to Go, I enjoyed this. Or do you spend all that time going, man, they did this, they did this, they did this. Oh, God, this is that. I mean, it's gonna happen. Protect yourself, protect your family. Right? And then try to have the best life you can. If you get too far down that rabbit hole, I think for most normal people, that consumes them too much. Obviously, we have plenty of time on our hand to go down all the rabbit holes, and we're kind of. That's what we do. Yeah, but to your average person.
Man, do you alter your entire life and live miserable because what goes on in Venezuela, well, you're not gonna. It'd be. It's like, you know, I'm a dog guy. If I sat here all day and thought, oh, my God, there's dogs just getting slaughtered in China. Right? It's happening. It's terrible. What's going on in some of those countries.
Jimmy
Dogs.
Lewis
Oh, they eat dogs over there.
Jimmy
What about the Christians and people?
Lewis
Yeah, well, dogs, too. I was going with dogs, so. Yes, But. Yeah, okay, so the same thing. It's like, oh, look what's going on, you know, the. The Palestine. Well, what about in Africa? What about the. You know, what about that? And it's like, oh, we're not worried about that one. But if you just spend all your time worried about everything, the government's going to do it anyway.
I mean, you got to live your life still. You got to enjoy your life.
Mike
I. I don't think that. Number one, your point's well taken, Mike. You know, hey, we gotta. We gotta keep a sense of proportion. We gotta not. I mean, like, there's people out there that, like, lose their minds over something that this politician said or that politician said. It's like, dude, just. It. It's not that important.
Lewis
Well, they have to go to conspiracy. Did somebody get that upset to shoot Charlie Kirk? Or is it a government? Is it a government?
Mike
I mean, well, there's a difference between going, hey, let's look at the evidence. Here's what I think. And then when I get done, you know, talking with my bros or being on a podcast, go like, hey, man, where are we gonna go eat? You guys mind if I have a drink? I mean. Oh, that. That one went right over everybody's head.
Jimmy
No, I get it.
Mike
You missed it.
Jimmy
What? Okay. What happened?
Mike
I went, hey, you know, when we get down.
Do you guys mind if I have a drink?
Jimmy
Not funny to us.
Lewis
No, I'm just kidding.
Mike
You can't joke about that.
Jimmy
Jimmy's with the wires, and we can.
Lewis
End the show based on last week's intoxication. One bad. Yeah, good. I think we're gonna learn that. All right, Jimmy, you can start at 36 minutes into the show. I can start a little later.
Jimmy
I think one cocktail is good.
Lewis
I think.
Jimmy
At least I didn't even.
Mike
That was a half glass. That was a half.
Jimmy
It was that same glass.
Mike
Yeah, it was this one.
Lewis
But I only.
Jimmy
Do you just rinse it out with tap water and put ice water in it.
Lewis
No, he's drinking vodka now.
Mike
No, I'm drinking.
So. I mean, the C4 residue is still in there, you know, so it adds.
Jimmy
A little bit of. What about the vodka residue? Is that still in there, too?
Mike
Oh, no, I don't drink out of this one. I mean, like a special cup.
Jimmy
That's the one you had on night.
Mike
Yeah, but there's no vodka in it. I mean, like, there was vodka in it. There was. And then I went home and washed it like a human.
Jimmy
Oh, okay. Okay. Here. Okay. I'm thinking, like, level savagery.
Mike
Hey, thanks, bro.
Lewis
You walk in this morning, you're like, oh, just a little bit.
Mike
I hear the dog, buddy.
Jimmy
Yeah. So obviously we get what want to.
Lewis
Get through that video.
Jimmy
Yeah, well, obviously, if we do regime changes in third world countries all the time. We like to start proxy wars all the time. It is what it is. That's politics. And we are probably never, as a nation, not going to do that. So that being said, let's finish it.
Pete Hegseth
Is Secretary of War Pete Hexen.
Shut the hell up. Shut it. Cut the music. What.
Things first. Where are the fatties?
You out.
Jimmy
What?
Lewis
I'm not even fat. Oh, really?
Pete Hegseth
You think you're hiding it under that blazer, porky? Who do you write for? The Chicago Trombone. Except that they play when your fat ass walks around.
Now listen up. As you probably read in some gay newspaper, we're now at war with Venezuela. All you nerds are like, wait, but was there an official declaration of war? Yeah, it's right here. Super Finger Dane Cook.
Now you got questions for me? Fine. Pretend I'm a random fishing boat and fire away.
Okay, is there any truth to the allegations that after an initial strike on a drug smuggling boat, you ordered a second strike to kill the survivors? First of all, that kind of cruel, heartless act has no place in operation Kill Everybody.
Mike
All right, all right. So here's what they're actually referencing. And. And this happens, by the way. So we went and. And did an engagement with a. A hellfire missile on a boat. The the guys were up. Boat wasn't sunk. And they were like, they've still got weapons. They still got the. Kill them.
Jimmy
Yeah, yeah. I.
Mike
It's a war. It's a war I don't have to go over. I mean like the Geneva Convention says I have to go render aid, but only to people who have signed the Geneva Convention. I don't know where the. The cartel signators are on that convention.
Jimmy
Oh, so we don't have to abide by it if.
Mike
No, we normally do. Even if you have not signed the Geneva Conventions. But we don't have to.
Jimmy
Well, we just declare war on everything. War on drugs.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
Laptops.
Mike
Yes.
The war on. The war on. What was it?
Lewis
They can do whatever they want.
Mike
Yeah. They can't way around everything there is.
Lewis
As I say, I'm not at war with any country. I'm at war with drugs month. And then it's like, then what is the public. Well, you can't kill drug smugglers. Well, it looks like.
Mike
I mean, listen. I mean like we. I watched my 11 Charlie's, my mortarman drop borders on some dudes in a donkey coming across the border of Pakistan. And guess what? We re attacked. They fired again. So like I got no problems.
Lewis
What type of war. Like that's really a war on drugs. That's about the most real war on drugs so far. And although we know it's. There's probably more to it than. We're not. We're just here to protect the United States from drugs. I'm not stupid.
Jimmy
It.
Lewis
But that's probably the most aggressive stance of, you know, fentanyl comes in and kills hundreds of thousands of people. Kids are dying. That's at least something. Now is there an ulterior motive?
Mike
Sure.
Lewis
But in the event that the ulterior motive people are at least drugs aren't getting.
Jimmy
I live my life through analogies. Right. So you're. You're. You're working at a store. A shop. And you've got one employee that's just an atrocity of a person. And you're like, dude, we've got to get rid of. Get rid of this person. Like they're just the worst. The worst employee. But there's nothing to really fire them for. Right? There's just nothing to do it. And then they do something stupid that you really wouldn't fire anybody but for. But now you have it. That is what they're doing. They're. They really want to do something. They can't really justify it to the American people. And then all Of a sudden, they're like, oh, drugs coming to the US this is why we're doing it, guys. And everyone's like, okay, that makes sense.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
Like, this is why we fired him because he was late once.
Lewis
Kids pedaling Fentanyl. That's what you care. You're gonna let these guys bring it? Oh, no, you better blow them people up. You're right. Like that.
Mike
Yeah, it's like Cat Williams. Yeah. I don't even know no insurgents. You could kill all those. I ain't got that one. Insurgent friend.
Jimmy
Yeah, so, I mean, it's like, it's easier to convince people that we're doing them a service as a. As the government is. Is stopping fentanyl getting on our streets than it is to say we need to do a regime change. Right, Right. It's harder to convince. You might be very right as a US Government by trying this, but change, like convincing the American public that that's what we need to do as a country. Probably a lot harder.
Mike
Oh. You see? But, you know, Mike's right. We don't have to convince nobody. They can just do it.
Lewis
They think your analogy was about you wanting to fire Lewis.
Jimmy
No, no, no.
Mike
That'S not true.
Jimmy
That's not true. Anyways, keep going.
Pete Hegseth
I wasn't even in the room when it happened. Okay. I was so jacked up after the first strike, I had to make an emergency call to my sponsor. Sorry. A guy I met at an anonymous meeting.
So I don't drink something that I like and I want, but I can't have, but I want it and I need it, and I want it right now. Yeah, it's booze.
Mike
I thought you.
Jimmy
Yes. What do you say to Senator Mark Kelly, who said you act like a 12 year old playing army?
Pete Hegseth
First of all, Kelly. That's a girl's name. What's his first name? Dress?
Jimmy
No, it's Mark, like I said.
Pete Hegseth
Oh, get a husband.
Mike
I'm trying.
Pete Hegseth
Well, to answer your question, if I was just playing army, would there be 80 dead fishermen of narco terrorists in Venezuela right now? Next question.
Lewis
Yeah. So is 80 the official death toll?
Pete Hegseth
Is 80 the official. No, it's 6. 7. 6, 7.
Idiot. Let's just say if I had a drink for every Venezuelan we've killed, I'd really like that number of drinks. All right, next. Oh, my God. Is that Matt Gaetz?
Mike
That's right.
Jimmy
It's me, Matt Gaetz.
Clint
I'm a reporter.
Jimmy
Now.
Question. You're only killing people who are trafficking drugs, right?
Mike
So, hypothetically, if Someone were trafficking something else, they'd be okay.
Pete Hegseth
We'Re targeting drug smugglers. Exclusively.
Jimmy
Giggity.
Mike
No further questions, your honor.
Jimmy
Pause it. I have a question. Pause it. All right, so what am I missing with that? I don't even know.
Lewis
Underage girls. Yeah, he's in trouble. Gates had to resign. He was going to be the attorney general.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
And he's got a history of messing with borderline. Under the age of 18, female. So he's talking. Probably talking about trafficking sex workers.
Had a little problem with that.
Mike
I, I, I mean, the forehead too, is pretty low too.
Jimmy
Wait, but was he friends with Hexa?
Lewis
No, he was going to be the attorney.
Mike
Yeah, he was going to be attorney general Pam Bondi instead.
Lewis
Yeah, so right when they announced him for attorney general, the story started breaking and I think he made a career decision to. I'll back out if everybody stops saying what they're about to say. Yeah, he's got a history of accusations.
Mike
Yeah, accusations sliding into girls. DMS on Instagram.
Lewis
Progressive type accusations.
Jimmy
Like, were they underneath.
Were they under, were they under the age of 18 or like that? Borderline.
Lewis
It was close.
Jimmy
But to me, 24 is still dip gross. When you're a man, what like 20? Like if you're 50 and you're going after a 24 year old, I, I.
Mike
I, I would like to submit the honorable.
Lewis
You only buy old cars.
Mike
You know, freaking Lord Palpatine himself. Bill Belichick, who is like, oh, that's crazy. I mean, he's, his girlfriend's 22 and he's like 100.
Jimmy
There's a bunch of people out there that are doing it that have young girlfriends. Like super young, like 30 years younger.
Mike
You remember when, when Catherine Zeta Jones and what's his name, his dad was Spartacus.
Jimmy
Kirk. Well, yeah, same thing. Yeah, like, how could a woman that's in her face 40s mentally date a dude that's 20 years old?
Mike
Okay, well, what about Machine Gun Kelly and oh, yeah, not Kardashian.
Why can't I, I have data. Dumped all of my, my useless knowledge.
Lewis
Yeah.
Mike
To go from Transformers.
Age difference between them, it was pretty significant.
Jimmy
Yeah, I'm not really talking so much as that.
Mike
Michael Douglas. Thank you. That's who I was talking about about Michael Douglas and Captain Zeta Jones got together and he was like 100. Billy Bob Thornton and.
Dude, you're awesome, Angelina. I did, I, I dumped all my pop culture references.
Lewis
That stuff's more prevalent. Hollywood. Yeah, they do some weird, weird, weird, like Katy Perry's with Justin Trudeau now, like, what a weird. The nuts. But Gates, that's. What's Gates doing.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
But yes. Young women in this. This generation.
Jimmy
You can still date 24.
Lewis
You're not smart.
Jimmy
I know you could.
Lewis
I agree with you though. The mental challenge of dealing with somebody. I did it. I was. I was married to something 15 years younger than me at one point.
Jimmy
Yeah, it sucks. Yeah. Probably awful.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
It's great.
Jimmy
Having somebody 15 years of life that they haven't even like learned from.
Lewis
Yes. Yes. So it's. Yes. Having a very intense, intelligent, mature woman.
Mike
How bad it is for women. I mean.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
They gotta deal with people.
Mike
Yeah. For the same age.
Lewis
They're picking from our pool.
Mike
I know. They're like, we're gonna go older.
Lewis
They're not young. But look at them. Jesus.
Mike
Maybe that's the problem.
Jimmy
We were aging like fine wine over here.
Mike
Yeah, we are.
Jimmy
All right.
Lewis
Play that CRT.
Mike
Shut up.
Lewis
How you, Louis? 24? Oh, gee, almost.
Jimmy
Almost.
Mike
Jesus.
Pete Hegseth
Yeah. Will and Grace go.
Jimmy
My name is actually William Grace.
Pete Hegseth
How do you respond to the allegations that the so called war on smugglers.
Jimmy
Is a smokescreen for regime change?
Pete Hegseth
Oh, way to solve a mystery, Scoob.
Of course that's what we're doing. And it always works. Just like it did in Guatemala, Nicaragua, Cuba, Brazil, Bolivia, Panama, Haiti, El Salvador, Chile, Honduras, Peru. Animaniacs.
Now we done here? I'm actually worried I'm gonna catch dork from you nerds. Secretary Heg.
Lewis
Seth, some people are accusing you of war crimes. Even the President has been distancing himself from you.
Pete Hegseth
Oh, wow, that's interesting. I actually have a question for you. Have you ever kissed a girl?
I'm genuinely asking. I have a wife. Oh, okay. Well, center my way. When she wants to actually feel something, it.
Anyway, to answer your question, President Trump has my back 100%. You want to know why? Because unlike you beta cucks, he's a high energy alpha who trusts me and listen to me no matter what. Isn't that right, Mr. President?
Jimmy
Yeah.
Pete Hegseth
Stop.
Lewis
Mom.
Jimmy
Donnie.
You can freeze my red anytime.
I wasn't sleeping.
Pete Hegseth
I'm very much awake now. Someone quickly tell me, where am I.
Jimmy
Who am I and what year might it be?
Pete Hegseth
Good one, Mr. President. Everything you do that's weird is a joke.
I was just telling everyone here that I have your full support. Absolutely.
Lewis
We love Pete.
Pete Hegseth
He's a great guy.
Mike
He was just.
Lewis
Fog of war, right?
Pete Hegseth
Fog of war.
Lewis
It's a thing you only say after doing war crime.
Jimmy
Right.
Lewis
You never hear a general go, everything went According to plan. In fog of war, it's like when you go into the sauna equinox, and.
Jimmy
Suddenly you're doing stuff you never did before.
We love it. It's a great new excuse we love. And nothing can change my mind. Unless, of course, it could hurt me in any way, in which case, I'll throw him under one of Mamdani's free buses.
Mike
Final question.
Pete Hegseth
Yes, Mr. President. More Americans, including your own voters, now blame you for the affordability crisis.
Lewis
This.
Pete Hegseth
What's your message to them?
Mike
He's sleeping.
Pete Hegseth
We got to get him to another MRI before he wakes up and.
Mike
Oh, my God.
Jimmy
I. I thought that was funny.
Mike
Yeah, I mean, it is good. It's. I. I mean, I wish that they would have gone as hard in the paint on Biden.
Jimmy
He was too easy.
Mike
I mean, I. I know, but, like, come on, man. And we just not gonna talk about it?
Jimmy
Dude, remember this back. Remember Dan Crenshaw? Oh, they made fun of him on snl, and then they brought him on because he was so butthurt about it.
Mike
But I. I. You know, do we.
Lewis
We want Clint.
Jimmy
Huh?
Lewis
Clint?
Mike
Yeah, we missed Clint last week. We gotta get Clint.
Lewis
He said short.
Jimmy
Okay, okay.
Mike
Put your bets in now.
Lewis
Let me know if y' all want me to call. It's short. I promise.
Jimmy
He say that every time.
Mike
Every single time.
Lewis
All right, here we go.
Jimmy
Once we're done with Clint, we're gonna get into the free flow part of the episode. Yeah.
Lewis
Hold on, hold on. Don't answer that. Clint.
Jimmy
We.
Lewis
Clint, call in. Help me.
Mike
Clint.
Lewis
You look like lewis. Now.
Mike
You're on.
Lewis
Clint. Yeah.
Clint
Good afternoon, fellas.
Lewis
Hey.
Clint
So when I talked to y' all last, it was that Thursday night of New Year or Thanksgiving, and I had got into a couple Zemas earlier that day, and so I had forgot what made my story a Thanksgiving story.
So.
Pete Hegseth
We.
Clint
So I know he's not the most popular story I've had, but Mr. Glass. This is the end of Mr. Glass.
Jimmy
Okay.
Lewis
So.
Clint
We had to fly back to Ramadi for Thanksgiving. We had a. Do an inventory of our equipment, and we got the Thanksgiving chow. Arimati. And so when we landed, we. We walked up, and there was Mr. Glass, and I, you know, I stopped and talked to him for a minute, and then we. We walked off, and we had left Mr. Glass behind, and he. He went to work in the headquarters platoon, and he was like a RTO on night shift or something. And so.
We had just got back, and somebody came up and said, hey, did you hear about Mr. Glass. And I said, no. He said, well, while y' all were gone, he. He had a. He had an unsuccessful suicide attempt. And.
Yeah, and I. I said. I said, really? Like, legit? They're like, nah, man.
Jimmy
He's just.
Clint
He's trying to do everything he can to get out of here. He wants to get back to that woman so bad. You know, he. He's trying everything to get out of here.
Lewis
So the.
Clint
The. The one NCO told us said, hey, the CEO put out an order. Nobody's allowed to eat in the chow hall by their self. They have to have a battle buddy at all times because, you know, eating by yourself is a sign that you're depressed. Depressed. And so we walk in the chow hall, and there's our company commander sitting at a table by himself, eating by himself. And this is the. He was a SERM first class and Ranger regiment and became an officer. And they have to. They have to be a company commander in big army before they can go back and be a platoon leader in Ranger bat. So their. Their Pls are captains, and then their company commander are majors. You know, it's a little bit different than regular army. So he's just trying to do his time and get back to the Rangers.
Lewis
He.
Clint
He hates everybody in the company that doesn't have airborne wings, Adam. He hates them. And this dude, I'll give it to him, he was hard as woodpecker lips. He. He would walk up if you. It was freezing cold, and if you had a neck gator on, he would walk up to you and he'd say, I see you're wearing your weakness today. Like, hell yeah, Sir. It's freaking 20, 25 degrees out here. He's like, I've never had one of those on in my whole life. I've never. I've never even touched one. Like, all right, Hard, man. So when he. When he did his change of command ceremony, we bought him a net gator and sewed all his skill badges on this neck gator. So I had a Ranger tab, CIB jump Master passfinder, and he wore the neck gator when he did the change of command ceremony. So he. He did have a sense of humor. Well, anyways, he's sitting in the cow hall by himself, and I walked in, I was like, hey, everybody, CEO's over. Over here. Sitting by himself. He's looking sad. My whole squad goes over and sits down at the table with him, and we're.
Jimmy
He.
Clint
You know, we're just chatting him up because we've been gone for, like, six Months. And we. We were flying around Blackhawks the whole time. And so we were just talking about that stuff. And right then, the chaplain walks up, and the chaplain says, hey, sir, I just wanted to check and see how, you know, Mr. Glass is doing. But, you know, he. He obviously said his real name, and the county commander, he didn't even look up. He was still eating. He said, ah, you know him. He's just hanging around.
Mike
Oh, God.
Lewis
Oh, God.
Mike
Oh, God.
Jimmy
That was good.
Lewis
That was good.
Jimmy
That was good.
Clint
That was before. That was before. You know, they were tracking 22 suicide today.
Lewis
You know, I got you. Yeah. All right, Clint, we appreciate it.
Mike
And I'm.
Lewis
I'm hearing a rumor you and your brother might make a trip down here.
Clint
Yeah, we're gonna do it.
Lewis
All right, good. I've been talking to your brother. I was talking to him this morning, so.
Mike
Yeah, we can't put him on.
Lewis
No, you don't.
Mike
Come on.
Lewis
But we'll see you soon, Clint. Thank you so much. What?
Mike
We have to protect 31. We have to protect Clint's identity at all costs.
Jimmy
No, technically, this was a retelling, a quick.
Lewis
So that the other story is 19 something.
Mike
Yeah, the other story was like.
Jimmy
In fact, if you weren't on the Thanksgiving live show and you just heard this, this probably wouldn't make that much sense.
Lewis
I just.
Jimmy
Or maybe this is how he needs to tell a story.
Lewis
That's how he should tell.
Jimmy
He should just tell the last four minutes of it. That's it.
Lewis
It made all the perfect sense in the world. It was. The dude was suicidal. He said to joke about hanging around. Hey, y', all, I got into some Zima's on Thanksgiving.
Mike
No, Zema was still a thing.
Jimmy
You know what? Clint took it. I love Clint to death. He's a very pure human being. Clearly. And you all were ruthless to him on Thanksgiving. Oh, Quinn's story. And Clint did not. Like, he was upset about it. Like, he. What he loves. He loves to entertain y' all with his stories, and y' all made him feel like.
Lewis
Man, I feel like a Venezuelan drug boat.
Mike
Guys, we're coming in hot.
Jimmy
All right, let's do the rest of the episode and talk about whatever the we want. First off, I want to ask you. You were the one that brought up Milo Yapanopoulos, right?
Mike
Milo Yiannopoulos.
Jimmy
Milo. And he kind of came back from being canceled. Yeah. And he's not gay anymore.
Mike
Yes, yes.
Lewis
He's been delivered.
Mike
He went through the shock therapy, so have up.
Jimmy
He was talking with Tucker Carlson and he was like this, like, all right, if you can see. And then when he would open his eyes, he was cross eyed. Yeah. And then he would go like this again. And he's like. I'm like, dude, what the wrong with it?
Mike
He was a lot more sanguine when he was on drugs.
Jimmy
Like, is this. What is this?
Lewis
Not.
Jimmy
Is what happened to him?
Mike
So he. He got canceled during.
Jimmy
You did talk about it. What did he do?
Mike
So he was talking about his time with the Catholic Church and the awakening. That. Yeah, I know. What, What? You know where this is going?
Lewis
Time with the Catholic Church.
Jimmy
Okay. He was molested.
Lewis
Yes.
Jimmy
Okay.
Mike
All right, so. And he ended up in a long term relationship with the priest.
Jimmy
That's a child.
Mike
Yes.
Lewis
A lot of trouble.
Mike
All right.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
I mean, right there. I mean, like, unless you're going like, it was terrible.
Lewis
It's not funny.
Mike
I'm sorry. You know, but like, he was like, listen, you know, for the most part, it was actually a really good relationship.
Like, yo.
Lewis
For the most part, it was a really good relationship.
And so like the ice cream.
Jimmy
Black out the trauma. It was a good relationship.
Mike
So I mean, like. And people were like, yo, bro, what the. Because his big claim to fame was that he was a gay Jewish.
Jimmy
He was a Jew.
Mike
Yeah, Yiannopoulos.
Jimmy
Well, yeah. I thought he was Catholic.
Mike
He was raised Catholic, but yeah.
Jimmy
He.
Mike
Went to the Jews.
Jimmy
Oh, we took an L on that one. And.
Mike
And no, he wasn't a Jew. He was still Catholic. His husband was a Jew. That's what it was. His husband was a Jew and black. So he had a black.
Lewis
This guy was.
Jimmy
I feel like you're making this up, Jimmy. Not.
Mike
I'm not. The chat back me up. I mean, his husband was a black Jew.
Lewis
His husband was a black juniors molested by a priest.
Jimmy
Oh, man.
Mike
This guy had hard and very hard, very smart. He was from England. Right. You know, he. And so he was like un. Cancelable until the whole life.
Lewis
I don't know if he can be canceled.
Mike
Yeah, well, we all thought that too.
Lewis
He got all the passes.
Jimmy
What did he do?
Clint
He.
Mike
He said that having a relationship when he was a youngster with a Catholic priest actually did some good.
Oh.
Jimmy
He, like.
Lewis
So they tried to say.
Mike
That's what they. Yeah, what he was really saying was is that look, that happened to me. I learned a lot from it. And I, you know, I mean, like, I'm over here trying to regurgitate what.
Jimmy
He said, you know, what pain is. I learned a lot. Oh, my God.
Mike
So they Were like, he's condoned just what Mike said. He's condoning it. Which he wasn't. He was just trying to, you know, every. Every dark cloud has a silver lining. Or every, you know, budge packed ass has, you know, prostate to hit. I don't know.
Lewis
Oh, God.
Mike
Catholic churches.
Jimmy
Anyways, he's back. He is back and he is weirder than ever.
Yeah, that's all I have.
Mike
Yeah, he is. I didn't see the interview, but yes, he. I mean, he's been on.
Jimmy
Go. Just. Just look up right now. You don't even put on the air. Just look for yourself when he talks.
Mike
Oh, I've seen. I've seen some of it. He is not coming out as strong as he did in 2015, 2016. Like, yeah, he was. He was a monster.
Lewis
I used to follow him.
Mike
He was a monster. He was. He was very smart. He was very articulate. He knew this.
Jimmy
You think he was on drugs then?
Mike
100. Probably Adderall, if we're. At the very least. Okay. I mean, I'm probably Greek. It is Greek. Okay, so I. I misspoke. It's on me. I get him wrong every once in a while.
Jimmy
What'd you get wrong?
Mike
I said he was Jewish, and then I was like, no, no, no, no.
Jimmy
No, you got something wrong. Eight million. One million. Oh.
Mike
Oh, I wasn't wrong. I was right.
Lewis
Six million.
Jimmy
So, no, not the Jews. Oh, the Somalis.
Mike
Okay, So I said when we. When. When we went back, right? I was like, hey, you know, the Somalis, they. They have this welfare fraud thing. I think it's 8 million. But right now the. They're saying it's.
Wyatt
It's.
Mike
I said billion with a B. I think it's8.8 billion. But it's billion with a beast.
Jimmy
What?
Mike
I said it was 8 billion. And no information that I had was correct. So they. They. And that recently came out like a day ago, like the. The welfare fraud that smallies were doing up there in Minnesota. It was 8 billion.
Jimmy
Okay, how about.
Lewis
How about. You saw Netflix was buying Warner Brothers. Okay, well, this morning, Animaniacs, Paramount stepped in and now is offered 108 billion. They're trying to collude the market and not let Netflix buy out Paramount. I think it goes to, like, the control thing. Somebody.
Jimmy
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Lewis
Paramount was buying. I'm sorry, Netflix is buying Warner Brothers.
Jimmy
What's. And that. What. What happens when that happens?
Lewis
Like, they're taking over the network.
Mike
So.
Jimmy
Yeah, Brothers has a network.
Lewis
The orange makes every move, all the movies, all Their studios, all their content.
Mike
All the Animaniacs episodes.
Lewis
Warner Brothers rights at Netflix now owns all the rights to kind of like when George Lucas sold Star Wars.
Mike
Yeah. Sold it to the mouse.
Lewis
So now Paramount's like, oh, wait, I'm gonna give you. I'll give you $108 billion. So there. There's a power bidding war. It's a bidding war going on for who can control the narrative, is what I'm getting at. Like they're now fighting over who gets to control Warner Brothers.
Jimmy
Don't they have the same narrative?
Lewis
I don't think so.
Jimmy
Progressive.
Lewis
No, no. I looked up. Or the owner, the CEO of Oracle, I think owns Paramount.
Mike
I think it. I think this has more. A lot more to do with streaming services.
Lewis
Like an Internet and all that. Like a company.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
Oracle.
Jimmy
So you didn't know what answered. There's a pal.
Lewis
There's a. It's a tech company. But their power. There's a. What I'm saying is there's a power struggle going on for who can control everything. Because now Paramount obviously has.
Jimmy
You will own pretty much 80 of the movies.
Lewis
UFC now is paramount. And now everything's free. You just have to subscribe to paramount. All those 79. 89 pay per views are now included.
Jimmy
This.
Lewis
The first one is in January.
Jimmy
Streaming stuff is crazy.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
We thought.
Lewis
Sucks.
Mike
Thank you.
Lewis
Sue me. Hulu sucks.
Mike
We thought we were gonna be free because the streaming services of. Of cable.
Jimmy
When everybody starts buying each other out. It all, like, everything's owned by one thing. It's not good, dude. Like, don't we have government laws stopping them?
Lewis
Monopoly laws.
Mike
But I'm throwing the flag.
Jimmy
Oh, Jew flag.
Mike
Israel flag.
Jimmy
Israel flag.
Lewis
Throw it on the ground. So I have to finish planning this.
Jimmy
We'll go back to that. Because he's got.
Lewis
I got. I have a. How do I say this politically correct?
Jimmy
We have a Jew friend.
Lewis
We have a Jew friend that we.
Mike
Got a two Watched.
Lewis
He watched. So we got the card. I. I guess we got the pass.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
He watched all of our content. Said, you guys have not said anything that is. Is crazy. Nothing that I can't get behind. And he offered to be our kind of. Like when the NFL has a catch. Looks like it's out of bell. Let's go to Dean Blam up in the booth and he reviews it. We're gonna have our Jewish friend that will review what we're talking about and then through his upbringing or confirm or deny in his most accurate way if we're right or wrong.
Mike
So that's coming up. Do you watch much football, Tyler?
Jimmy
I'm trying to watch.
Mike
Okay. So normally when there's a call on the field, right. And something happens and, and a coach will challenge it. Yeah. Sometimes it has to go all the way back to New York for the, the, the guys on the field can't. Can't make the call.
Jimmy
Wait, there's team. There's. They have team members in New York.
Lewis
No, no, the commission is looking at.
Jimmy
It, the book in real time.
Lewis
It's all being fixed. It's all a big scam.
Mike
Right.
Jimmy
And.
Mike
And sometimes New York will call in and go, hey, that. You got that wrong.
Lewis
There's two incidents in this. And Kane, I was going to talk about it. I'm glad we remembered this. There were two incidents that occurred yesterday. There was one where the touchdown was caught in a game, clearly, and they overturned it. Team doesn't score, alters the game. The most bonkers thing that happened yesterday for those who'd like to gamble, is there's a thing called the over under. So you bet if the score of the game is going to go under or over, then there's a point spread. You determine it. Like we talk about on my show. If you bet a team plus seven, you start the game 7 0, your team is up 7 0. Or if you bet on the other team, you're down 7 0. In the Raiders game, which is in Las Vegas. Yeah, they do some gambling in Las Vegas.
Mike
Just a little bit.
Lewis
Portnoy went crazy about this last night.
Jimmy
On.
Lewis
On the.
Jimmy
You said prison him. Put him in prison.
Lewis
They Pete Carroll of the down by 10 games. Over, down 10. Under is in. So the under and the spread was going to be covered by the Broncos. Pete Carroll kicked a field goal with no time left in the game. That made the Bron. The Raiders cover and the over under to go over meaningless. Didn't change the outcome of the game. Never been done. They never. Just like we saw the other thing. Never been done with the. What happened in the football game last week that we said never been done?
Mike
There's a lot.
Lewis
There was the thing.
Mike
Are you talking about.
Jimmy
Oh, the kicker.
Lewis
Never seen before. They literally in front of millions and millions of people altered the outcome of that game by kicking the field goal.
Jimmy
Why shouldn't they have kicked Google the game was over.
Lewis
They're down 10. There's like four seconds left. You kick the field.
Jimmy
Downed it.
Lewis
Yeah.
Mike
You can't win or throw a Hail Mary.
Jimmy
It's not worth like risking the injury to the kid.
Lewis
Not Even ring the injury. There's no. You just. Game is. Most teams will go. And it all started before that with a phantom penalty that actually stopped the clock and allowed this to happen. But they. Because the guy knocked the ball out of the hand. The guys walk around with the ball in his hand. There's like 12 seconds left in the game. One of the players from the other team, like, knocks the ball in his hand. They call a delay, a game penalty that stops the clock, moves the ball up, they kick the field goal. No bearing on the game, no bearing on the outcome. It's like hitting home runs when you're. You're down 20 to nothing and you're like, I'm gonna knock this out of the park. Just get down. They changed the entire Vegas outcome of that game and swayed millions and millions of dollars by that happening because everybody had the Broncos covering everybody, because the Raiders suck. Broncos are covering, and they were covering, and they kick a field goal. And it changed the entire outcome. And millions of dollars swung to the house to the favor of the casino. Right on tv. Right on TV in Las Vegas.
Jimmy
I think that's your show. Should be. You should have a show. Strict. When. All right. Locks. Locks with Copple. Sundays, once the season is over. It should be a strictly show talking about corruption in sports.
Lewis
Yeah, we could do that.
Jimmy
I think that's. I mean, you could talk.
Lewis
We can move it around a little bit. We do it that time of day because we get them in before the games. But like I said, locks with Cobb, 1145, myself and canine. We hit pretty big this weekend. We did very well. We did very well. Our games went well. We all had the Broncos to win that game. Wouldn't touch the spread. But that game right in front of your eyes, millions of dollars was shifted hands on a meaningless field goal.
Jimmy
What were you going to say earlier that the.
Mike
Remember, it started with the NBA. The NBA was fixing. Yeah. And Michael Francis, again, my favorite freaking mob capo, said it's. It's in. It's in Major League Baseball, it's in the NFL. And we're gonna. And because of this RICO case, we're gonna find it all.
Lewis
There's weird things that go on throughout games that nobody notices. They're not supposed to replay everything. But they'll miss a call, blatantly miss a call, and then they'll be like, oh, New York called in and we're gonna. The flag is being picked up. And you're like, that's really not how it works. Supposed to be, like, certain things can't be reviewed. Certain things can. Then they'll just change things throughout the game and they'll just. You're like, why? That's not supposed to happen. But it's like complaining on the government. I talked about my last episode. You really can't complain. What happened to Portnoy? He got thrown out of the NFL. He's not even allowed to stadium like any NFL. No go. There's a video if you go to church. Dave Port nor Super getting thrown out of Super Bowl. He gets. Buys a ticket. He's got a.
Jimmy
He's got a disguise on, right?
Lewis
Yes, a little one. He gets. He's got after party passes from Robert Kraft, the owner of the Patriots, to go to his after party. He's sitting in the nosebleed section of the stadium. He goes limp. He won't let him touch him. And they drag him out of the super bowl. Paying customer. They just drug him out.
Jimmy
All the way out because he threatened.
Lewis
Because he's. He was in on the deflate gate. He was talking about Goodell. Yeah, he talked bad about Roger Goodell a lot. So they banned him from all activities and all football games in the NFL. He can't go to any of them, dude.
Mike
I mean, while we're on the subject, Michael Jordan may end up owning nascar.
Jimmy
Yeah, we talked about Thursday.
Mike
Oh, I was.
Wyatt
I.
Mike
There's. There's more to it.
Jimmy
Oh, more.
Mike
Oh, yeah.
Lewis
Get her done, Jimmy.
Mike
So, I mean, it is very, very likely that when this lawsuit is over with the, the France family, who has owned NASCAR since it was racing at Daytona beach on the sand, is not going to be in charge. No, it, it. I mean, there's a lot of people who think it's a great thing.
Jimmy
God. Well, is it gonna get any less woke? I mean, NASCAR is the one sport which, if you consider it a sport, let's call it a sport for.
Mike
Here's, here's the biggest problem.
Jimmy
Hockey with hockey.
Lewis
Hockey's not woke.
Jimmy
No, hockey.
Mike
They'll punch you in the face in hockey. I mean, the, the Canadians in the America. Did you ever see.
Jimmy
Did you see Focus nascar?
Mike
Nascar? Oh, sorry. Add.
So to get into NASCAR and to have a, A charter, you have to pay an inordinate amount of money to own that charter. And none of the people this time around to pay for their charters. We're very happy with it. Michael Jordan is alleging that it's an illegal monopoly and it controls finances unfairly. It's short. Changing the teams even on winnings, despite massive investments. And he is. He's basically demanding that the, a fair revenue split like every other major, you know, sport has.
Lewis
I don't know if I agree with that. See, that's where I'm off. Because they started it like we started it. It's like going to the Walmart and saying you should do this. And they're like, you, we're a billion dollar company. We got here because of this. Like I get. But it's a business. Yeah, it's a business.
Jimmy
You think Michael Jordan will win?
Mike
I think that if he, I think there's a good chance he's going to. Just because they're basically at this point, it's becoming so big and the biggest thing that they has is you can go, you can say it's a business or not, but.
How many, I mean like the big flyovers that you see from the U.S. government, they go to NASCAR, you know, I mean like planes, you know. So like there's so much government involvement now with, with these sports that like you can't say there's an owner.
Jimmy
Well, so, and I mean going back into this conspiracy thing, going back to the movies, I always used to think like, at what point is the end? Well, and, and sports, at what point is the NFL gonna realize they're plummeting ticket price, pricing prices, their ticket sales, their plummeting revenue, everything was plummeting. Viewership was plummeting everything. And at some point you're like, okay, they're gonna see this as a business. It's going to take six months to bring it back. They never did.
Lewis
You know how they fixed it. They brought Taylor Swift in.
Jimmy
Yeah. Okay.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
And store Target plumbing. Everything plummeting. Plumbing, plumbing, plumbing, plumbing. And it, what happens is, is they're being paid out by. What's it, what's that Black Blackstone. Is that my grill?
Mike
No, you're talking about a black rock.
Jimmy
Blackrock. These billion dollar corporations are all Soros funded. And they, these companies don't care. They're losing money as long as they're pushing a narrative because guess what? Their sales might go down, but they're getting money from BlackRock to do this.
Mike
Yeah. So I mean here's, here's one of the things like this is in the chats right now. So like people, just like you talked about, right? People look at NASCAR. NASCAR's boring. Well, NASCAR is boring right now for the same reasons that a lot of other things is boring.
Jimmy
Like football, wrestling.
Clint
Yeah.
Mike
No, like it's all bad. It's, it's, it's all bad right now. I mean, like, there's so much emphasis on woke. Slash, safety. Now. The safety stuff started coming in when.
Dale Senior, last NASCAR driver to die, died at Daytona in the biggest race of the year in the last. The last turn of the last lap.
Jimmy
Yeah, I get it. But do you want your gladiators in bubble suits with plastic.
Mike
That's.
Jimmy
With plastic swords.
Mike
That's the point. Right. So we've got a problem.
Lewis
We don't have gladiators anymore, though.
Mike
Yeah, we got a problem softened with. Oh, sorry.
Lewis
No good.
Mike
Yeah, we. The. The car right now. The. The. The. The next gen car in. In nascar. Why is everybody like, oh, Formula One's more fun, Formula One's more interesting? Well, it's because the car.
Jimmy
That's why.
Mike
And they made it, like, super safe, but it's actually not safe. It's actually harder to drive. It's. It's more dangerous. It gets. It gets way more loose than it should, especially in turns. They got these new tires that the. They get down in. It takes like 10 laps for them to warm up before they get grippy. I mean, like, I can go on and on and on.
Lewis
I hope right away. What needs to be grippy right out of the.
Mike
Yeah, it should be. You know, it. I mean, it's. It's. You know, it's. PC1 is what it's called.
So if.
Jimmy
If.
Lewis
Hey, Lewis.
Jimmy
Got it. If.
Mike
If NASCAR loses to Michael Jordan, Michael Jordan has a plan. And guess who's a good friend of Michael Jordan? There's two guys.
Jimmy
The guy that. The. The black NASCAR driver.
Mike
No. Well, he actually drives for Michael Jordan, but we're talking about two white guys. Two old white guys.
Jimmy
The Animaniacs.
Mike
No, it's Dale Jr. And Jeff Gordon.
Jimmy
Will they come on as commissioners or something? Or they could probably.
Mike
They would probably become a commissioner of nascar. And I couldn't think of two better guys to do it. Jeff Gordon is very, very smart business guy. Dale Jr. I mean, first of all, he's Dale Jr. But second of all, I mean, like, to Jimmy, there's.
Jimmy
Jesus. Dale Senior.
Mike
Dale Jr. That's right.
Jimmy
Like, there's a couple steps in his.
Mike
Yeah, I mean, but like, you're not wrong in that. Syn. That synchronized order, Dale.
Lewis
Yeah.
Jimmy
I mean, but like, going back to hockey. Yeah, hockey. I. I think it was about 10 years ago they tried to get rid of fights for one season of hockey, and rankings plummeted.
Mike
It wasn't. Never mind. Never mind. Yeah. It wasn't even just the fact that rankings plummeted. Fighting in Hockey is very important to keep discipline on the ice. If you've got a, A Wayne Gretzky and he is not a fighter and that guy comes in and you know you got your big enforcer guy and he smashes Wayne Gretzky. Well, Wayne Gretzky's not fighting back. Well, what normally happens is you just like if you throw a wild pitch, somebody's charging the mound.
Jimmy
Right. You gotta have your enforcers.
Mike
Right. So you're. Hey dude, you're gonna catch an ass whooping for this. That's why fighting in hockey is important.
Jimmy
I was gonna ask canine about the late hit. The Steelers, who they play yesterday? Was it the Bills?
Lewis
No. Steelers played the Ravens. No.
Jimmy
What?
Lewis
No, no, no. The Bills played the. They choked. Who the. They play. Who did you watch in the snow? Bills played the Browns. The Bengals choked. Bengals were up to another suspicious game. Bands up.
Jimmy
Yeah, I think the Steelers played the Ravens.
Lewis
Yes.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
And. And yeah, I don't know how the Bengals lost that, but they did somehow.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
The Steelers beat the.
Jimmy
I watched a late hit, it must have been last week then where the quarterback went, did his slide. But the, the defensive players, yeah, they go attack rushed them.
Lewis
They need to.
Mike
But I, I mean to be some.
Lewis
Accountability like he's saying about. But hockey allows it. NFL, you throw a punch, you're kicked out.
Jimmy
Well that all started with Brady back in 2010 when he started complaining about getting hit all the time.
Mike
No, Brady is the guy that's not. He's like not cons it. The person that we need to be looking at is Patrick Mahomes. That's the guy.
Lewis
Yeah, but it's.
Jimmy
But Brady started it back in 2010.
Lewis
You look at all sports.
Jimmy
Remember the picture of him sitting there like a baby on the field with it. He was just sitting with his legs out and he's like this and it's like an iconic.
Lewis
Most of the rules in football change.
Mike
That was the end of a game we lost.
Lewis
New England changed the tuck rule which was a. Brady should have lost that game.
Mike
Yes, he should have really won.
Lewis
And then the deflate gate kind of got over brushed over that like you're blatantly cheating. And then they. Yeah, they alter the rules, but.
Mike
They.
Lewis
Know what side when you see these guys get hit. And I'm all about violence, but man. Dude, these guys are monsters now. This isn't the NFL when they were 60 year old drunks that were on the field playing on, you know, for fun on weekends. These guys are like genetic freaks. And when they run you Know, head and neck. I mean, if you want.
Jimmy
Well, we had. We had J. Dobbs come on. And he talked about how on his team, Arizona State, he was like. He was like, there was no backup plan for nothing. That's how good I was. He's like, I knew I was going to the NFL. And he's like, then I went to the combine, and within 10 minutes, I realized, I need a new career. He's like, these guys are just inhuman.
Lewis
Yeah.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Lewis
I don't think people realize how big they are.
Mike
I. I mean, how could you get hit like that?
Jimmy
Every week?
Mike
You hear it on TV during the car crashes.
Lewis
Yeah. You're like, oh, God, it sounds terrible.
Mike
I mean, there was so.
Jimmy
It would put me in the hospital to be hit like that.
Lewis
Yeah.
Jimmy
Even, like, if you brought it down to scale.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
So you brought a football player that's 5, 9, 200 pounds. That's me. That's.
Lewis
My name's Tyler. But you brought another football player.
Jimmy
That's my weight, my height.
Mike
And you got hit by Ronde Barber.
Jimmy
And you. And you let that person hit me like they are a football player. It's going to me in the hospital.
Mike
I mean, John lynch was not. I. By the way, so was.
Pat Tillman. Pat Tillman was not a big guy.
Jimmy
He wasn't.
Mike
Not compared to NFL players. He wasn't a big guy.
Lewis
Have you ever been near some of these guys? Like.
Where I got humbled the most was I went to. Took my kids to a WWE event in Tampa, and we sat right on the aisle, like, right where they come in. Yeah, those guys look big on tv. Watch Brock Lesnar walk by. It's in. It's it. Your brain can't compute how big he is. Like, on tv, you're like, yeah, he's big.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
Then he walks by, and I have a picture with.
Braun Strowman. Is his name on. Braun Strowman is. The other guys died. Bray Wyatt died, and the other guy from that click died.
Jimmy
Okay.
Lewis
Braun Strowman, I follow him on Instagram. I have a picture. He came to a gun range in Vero. And I have a picture next to. I'll put up next time we're talking about maybe a night shift. It's just sickening how big this guy is. He's like 6 11. Just. She's a monster. And you're just like, God dang. And he's flying around the ring, dude. He's jumping off the top rope. Like, I can't get out of bed in the morning.
Jimmy
I'm like, dude, like.
Lewis
Like, I slip walk, you know, I get up wrong out of bed, and I'm like, ah, I'm done for the day.
Jimmy
But genetically superior.
Mike
You get next to, like, they're space.
Lewis
Like Brock Lesnar. Dude, that guy is. I'll never get. Watching him walk by. I'm like, well, look at.
Jimmy
Okay, look, let's. Let's circle back. Let's circle back. Like, much like Jimmy likes to say, let's circle back.
Lewis
That was the press secretary for Biden said all the time.
Jimmy
Yeah, well, that was him on the real. Yeah. After we just got done saying. I'm talking about. Ah, the dude. He goes, okay, can we circle back to the juice? But circling back to.
What'S my wife covered on her show? What's the girl with the jeans?
Mike
Sydney Sweeney.
Jimmy
Sydney Sweeney. We're talking about. Like, I. I know the whole conspiracy. The whole thing for showmanship is she was talking about jeans, but then she was talking about jeans and whatever. But to sit there and look at these guys that Mike's bringing up and not go, there is genetic superiority. Like, correct. There is, like, so not saying that any. What color of genes is better, but to just sit there and the cancel culture wanting to say, no, we cannot talk about genes and genetic, like, superiority. And with genetics is a thing.
Mike
Well, I mean, they. Okay, it's the last hour.
Jimmy
You can say whatever you want.
Mike
Okay.
Jimmy
We should actually, once we get this show in order, we should pull a second half is on Patreon. Well, we. We're that way.
Mike
Or like, like the last 45 minutes of his life. Yeah, let's go on a Patreon, and we're going nuts.
The.
Jimmy
The.
Mike
If you look at the African Americans here in the United States and you look at the Somalis in Somalia, the. The people that are here in the United States that are of African descent will kill the Somalis and eat them. They are massive. They are huge. The average African American beats the holy piss out of the average Somalian. Somalia. They're skinny. I mean, it's not genetically.
Jimmy
Like, even if you fed them and train them, just being here in America for hundreds of years, it's the genetics.
Mike
Because why are they here in the first place? They didn't just go over there and eat and.
Jimmy
Yeah, they were the best of the best.
The other blacks.
Mike
No.
Jimmy
Yeah. The.
Mike
The East India Trading Company based in England had people who were, like, looking at them like they were cattle. Yeah.
Jimmy
Okay, so what you're. I'm making a joke, but you're not joking. They pissed no, they picked the best of the black.
Lewis
Yes.
Jimmy
Slaves. Yeah.
Mike
I mean, Bill Bird does a skit on it. Hey. You know, he's like Hitler's. We're gonna create the master race.
Jimmy
And.
Mike
And America's like, I think we already accidentally did that.
Lewis
We?
Jimmy
Dude, you hit Hitler and black in.
Lewis
The same sentence with an act with a Hitler accent. Well, I mean, yes, there are genetic differences. There's a. There's a couple guys I work out with in the gym. One of the first guys I ever met with Kennedy, he's Haitian, but he is massive.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
And I'm like, never touched originally my life. I asked him, you know, we're very good friends. And he's like, nope, never, never. Chicken rice. Legit. And I walked in the gym and I remember being. You saw the pictures on night shift, what I looked like. And I was like, that guy, I won't drive to him. I'm like, hey, man, I've never been here. Nice guy in the world. Can you. Can you train me? Yes, sir. Come on, let's go. But never touched steroids in his life. And then there's another guy, Benny, that I work out with in the gym.
Jimmy
Dude.
Lewis
Dude benches. Incline benches like 365 for Reps. Jesus Christ. Massive month. Never put anything in his body illegally. And just genetically you're saying they would.
Jimmy
Have no reason to lie to you.
Lewis
No, there's. I mean, because I openly do it. There's all got little gym bros in the gym. You can tell who's usually on it. But no, they are genetically just insane. I'm talking massive weight. Like they bench. And then how do you guys. And they're genetics.
Mike
How do you. How do you look at guys like Brock Lesnar, those corn fed Midwesterners? That's the same thing.
Lewis
Sauce though he.
Mike
Okay, he got into the sauce. But I mean like his brother's.
Lewis
But, but, but for instance is. There's. I obviously I've done steroids. I've been able to be in good shape.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
I would call it shape. I've never been big. The amount of.
Commitment to eating properly and a lot to get to that size is. You can't comprehend it. That's why everybody's. Oh, you did steroids. It's cheating.
Mike
It ain't.
Lewis
It gives you an advantage. But you still have to do a lot of things that nobody would go. If you're not going to the gym anyway, you're not going to do. I can I always just say, here's your story. I'll buy it all for you take it, go do all of it. You're not going to get up every morning, you're not going to eat properly. You're not going to do the required amount of cardio. You're not going to do all the things you need to get to that level of size. It's hard. It's very hard. Even with an advantage, it's hard. Does it make you stronger? Of course. I mean I can't knock that. I benched yesterday. I did first time flat bench in a long time. I 375 for or 275 for 3 reps and had been a long time and I'm obviously taking stuff and I haven't really maxed out, but it's like I'm 195 pounds throwing 275 around for three reps. That's genetically. That's not genetics. That's chemically pushing that. I'm not strong enough to do that. Normal.
Jimmy
You're saying typically that's not genetically possible?
Lewis
No. Most human beings at 195lbs can't walk into the gym and build bench 275lbs. It's not gonna happen, I think, I.
Mike
Mean if you're, if you're benching your weight, you're doing.
Lewis
They said 225 is. You're in a 1% of America. You're 1% of. But when you walk in the gym, it doesn't make sense because most guys.
Jimmy
Everybody'S in that camera.
Lewis
Then you get the 315. Now you're in like 0.1% of America. So it's. But you know, I've, I've genetically, dude, I'm not big. You know, I'm not. I'm kind of skinny built. I'm not very. I'm not a big guy. And there's some point your, your joints and your ligaments can't keep up with all that stuff. So it's like in your heart. Yeah, I got up to, you know, I remember I wanted to bench 405. That was my goal. I'm like, I got to get to 405. And I could. I never got there. I got to 370.
Jimmy
When you take and supplements, let's call it that performing enhancing drug performance, you do it because you like more athleticism and more stress strength. You're not trying to be like some monster.
Lewis
No, the trt, obviously I do TRT what everybody else can get. That's normal. I add, you know. You add a little mixers in. Yeah, yeah. But for the Most part, no, I wouldn't. And I. I have a bad heart. And actually everybody who talks smack. My heart has actually gotten better from age 35 to age almost 50. My increased percentage because my dad died young and his sister died young from heart failure. But I'm not taking. You know, when you guys see, like, Rich Piano died, he's mad. He was. Dude, that guy was blasting.
Jimmy
He kind of like on. He kind of like Rich piana kind of low key. Just let you know this is gonna happen at some point. Every interview, he's like, I live this to an extreme.
Lewis
Extreme. Extreme.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
Like he. He let on that. Yeah. And then one day, wasn't it on camera where he like, kind of fell on the bed, like, died on camera. But.
Lewis
But if you ever listen to what he was taking, it's on.
Jimmy
It's.
Lewis
It's ridiculous. But I always. I always default to Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
Very moderate use. Enough to get where he needed to get. Maybe some genetics there. He's Austrian, so maybe some genetics.
Jimmy
Hang on.
Lewis
He's Austrian. I almost didn't catch that.
Mike
Hang on, hang on.
Jimmy
On.
Mike
Keep talking.
Lewis
So.
Done. I'm canceling. But obviously genetics. But if you listen.
Jimmy
If you listen.
Lewis
Is that Austrian music?
Mike
That's awesome.
Lewis
That's a German flag. That's an Austrian flag. Stop.
But obviously genetic. But if you listen to what he did and what steroids he took, it was very mild. And everybody automatically seems, oh, steroids are bad. Look, Arnold's still around. He's still kicking, still in shape.
Mike
That's fair.
Jimmy
I say this about Arnold all the time. Obviously, the last couple years he was in his political stances.
Mike
I mean, his brain is probably mush, but cocaine.
Jimmy
Arnold had the best blueprint for hard work ever. You. You have 24 hours in a day. You have eight hours to sleep. You have eight hours to work that six hours.
Mike
Sixteen.
Jimmy
You have four hours for school, that's 20. And you have four hours for the gym. That's 24 hours a day. In Arnold's mind, that, that like he was pretty much saying, excuses are inexcusable. Like, you have that many hours in a day.
Lewis
Yeah. And that guy worked his ass off. And again, he did. Did he do steroids? But he was big on primobol and primobolan and testosterone were two of his big ones. And prima bowling is a very, very mild.
Jimmy
There's really on top of Arnold. He was witty. He was. He, He. He wouldn't have gone where he was if he didn't know. Like, this is My chance. I have to talk these people. I have to say these things. I have to be like a UFC fighter behind the mic. And is every.
Lewis
Everybody sabotage guys in the gym.
Mike
Yeah.
Lewis
He would tell them, oh, that's. You're doing that wrong. And be like, did you ever.
Mike
Did you ever hear that story about him and him and. No, no, no, no. Who's a. He was in Predator with them. It was a Navy seal.
Jimmy
Jesse.
Mike
Jesse. He. With Jesse Ventera.
Lewis
Yes.
Mike
On the set of Predator, he'd be.
Lewis
Like, hey, man, you're looking fat. Or you. You're doing it like, tell him to do.
Mike
And then he had the. He had the. The people that do their costumes. They were measuring their costumes. And so he was like, hey, tell him his biceps, his head. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was like, tell him his biceps are bigger than mine. Right? Tell him his biceps are bigger than mine. So Jesse's like, hey, let's go work out. And so they go work out, and they're like, all right, let's.
Lewis
Let's measure.
Jimmy
Let's see.
Mike
We're looking pretty close. Arnold blew him out.
Lewis
He would have Jesse's uniforms altered to be bigger. So adventure is like, why do I got gap here? And Arnold's were tight as. And he's like, man, look. Look how tight these are. He did on purpose.
Mike
Yeah, Yeah.
Lewis
I actually bet. And he knew he was bigger, but he made Jesse think he was bigger. Yeah, we're wearing the same size shirt, dude. He's like, what the. So, yes, he. But he was a talker. He was very slick. But you go back and watch his old workouts, dude, that guy puts in the work.
Jimmy
And. And if you're not. If you're not going to go, that's the extra. I think that's the final mile. You bring your genetics in, you bring your training in, you bring your dedication, your hard work. You bring everything to the table. But it does need some showmanship. You have to stand out. If you're with 30 bodybuilders that all have the same drive and the same.
Genetics and everything like that, you have to stand out. That's what Arnold.
Mike
I need my cook thing.
Lewis
Somebody said there's a comment there that you don't have to inject your body steroids. You can work out regular and all that. Yeah, you can also. You can also push your car down the road instead of putting really good gas in it.
Mike
Driving Fred Bloodstone, that mother.
Lewis
I go in the gym off cycle on low dose, and it's like the. The 70 and 80 pound dumbbells are heavy and I can't bench 275. And the heavier the weight, the more muscle you're going to build. And then I get on and I'm two, three weeks into it and I'm throwing 275 around like it's nothing. So it just. Yes, you don't have to. You're correct. I don't condone it. Don't ever do it. Stay healthy, get hp.
Mike
Unless you go to the gym.
Lewis
Get your natural stuff, get your peptides if you want to be like that. And if you want to.
Jimmy
You want to be a dork.
Lewis
I went from210,210 to195 in just under three weeks.
Mike
That's fantastic.
Lewis
But you were put.
Mike
But you've been putting into work, bro.
Lewis
Yeah, yeah. And I've got my cruise leaves on the 19th, so I've got. I've got 11 days left till I'm done. And that was a one. That'll be a one month quick turn.
Mike
Your wife just cooked the chat, by the way.
Lewis
Yeah, I heard. What's the comment? I missed it.
Mike
She. She said some black women are naturally just genetically silverbacks and then she posted a silverback gorilla gif.
Jimmy
I didn't say that.
Mike
I'm quoting.
Jimmy
That's the chat, man.
Mike
That's the chat. We. We just got to read it.
Lewis
Why?
Jimmy
Anyway, thanks, babe. I don't want to forget the super chats. Wait, what did you say?
Mike
No, it's just. It's just funny. It's. It's just funny comedy.
Lewis
We're comedian. We're coming.
On wherever we're at.
Jimmy
Nicole Morgan, $10. Thank you. Speaking of sports, this is the audience friendly reminder that tonight at 7:00pm Eastern Time over at the Counterculture Inc. YouTube channel is the absolute best sports podcast. Tune in Canine and Sipo. Sipo.
Lewis
I always want to sayo. Yeah, that's my cousin Canine. He was on early. We didn't get to him. He does a breakdown of all the NFL hot sports. Him and Sipo, it's a very good combination too.
Jimmy
CC said something racist.
Matt Curtis. Those who hate on TRT and other products won't put in the time to do half of what I can do anyways. I work out eight hours a day, eight hours a week. They don't.
Lewis
I was more mocked for working out, being in shape than I was ever mocked for being fat.
Jimmy
Yeah, that's a problem.
Lewis
Especially.
Jimmy
That's a hater. Here comes Mike again.
Mike
He's gonna talk about the gym and.
Lewis
Okay, go over there. Go ahead, go eat. Go eat your third burger today and eat your Big Gulp. 78 grams of sugar per sip. Yeah, like you're doing. You're doing great.
Mike
No, I mean, dude, you're not wrong. I mean, and the other thing too that's really a bummer is how hard it is and how expensive it is to eat healthy it. Is it you?
Lewis
I mean, I had a miserable lap last night. You know, I bought this chicken from Publix and I cooked it.
Mike
It was so bad.
Lewis
And I was halfway through the meal. I'm just like, I hate myself for eating healthy. Like, I threw it away. I was like, I'm not just. I'm not eating. My wife's over there. She goes doordash ice cream every night. I'm just watching her eat it. I'm like, I'm over there taking three chips out of the bag and trying to.
Jimmy
That sounds real small. Like, no wonder you're always.
Lewis
Eat this chip, you know? Feel better?
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
Are you guys feeling good? Because we're at 61 now.
Lewis
Yeah, I'm feeling good, Louis.
Jimmy
What I want to do is. Oh, what, Lewis? When do you have to wrap it up by?
Lewis
An hour ago.
Mike
I do.
Lewis
Gotta go soon.
Jimmy
All right, we gotta. We got. It was ruining all the fun.
Lewis
Ruin the.
Jimmy
We need to have a segment where we talk about tattoos. Like, I'm looking at Mike's tattoo and he looks like. You look like a computer screensaver. What is it?
Lewis
Remember Cubert?
I'm the only.
Jimmy
Is that an 8bit game?
Lewis
It's an old arcade game that's with that 3D and then it goes all the way around to my chest.
Jimmy
That was a cover.
Lewis
These are all cover ups.
Jimmy
Was that where you had your.
Lewis
I had a gay trouble once too.
Jimmy
I was gonna say you probably had some kind of.
Lewis
Right.
Jimmy
There was a Iron Eagle and Thunderbolts.
Lewis
This is my original airborne beret.
Jimmy
You got a beret on your beret on it.
Lewis
Oh, yeah. Right out of airborne school. I mean, Jimmy didn't have to worry about getting one.
Mike
Yeah, no, I got an airborne beret.
Lewis
Right out of like graduated airborne school.
Mike
Look, man.
Lewis
Off of Fort Benning. Honestly, like right there, buddy. Not to ever had.
Mike
I. I think you should. Everybody should be really proud of what they did in the service.
Clint
You should be.
Lewis
Jimmy, I'm just messing with you.
Mike
No, no, I, I, I, I. Because I see a lot of people like, like I used to be one of them. Like, guys would come out of basic training and they get cross rifles tattoos. And I did it, and, and is it, is it stupid? You know, when you get older. Yeah. But when you're that young and you did accomplish that, it's like first big thing you accomplished.
Jimmy
It's hard not to.
Mike
Yeah, it's hard not to. And that's okay, too. I mean, I'm still gonna make fun of you for it, but, I mean.
Mike's just smoking. Mike's gonna be smoking me out back.
Wyatt
Yeah.
Jimmy
All right, we'll wrap it up. Yeah. For those of you just joining us, 11, 11.
Lewis
You do push ups. Push ups on the way out.
Jimmy
We start this at 11, then we have errors. At noon, Eastern Standard Time, we usually have the Lewis. The Mossad cuts in electronically and kills our feed and then we have to restart it. But 11:00am Eastern Standard Time, that's 8:00am on the West Coast. So join us at the beginning of the show if you can. But we will see you Thursday.
Lewis
You won't be here, right?
Jimmy
I won't be here Thursday. I have something going on and I'll explain it later. But it's on the Patreon. Yeah, I'll put it on the Patreon. I might be able to make the tail end of the second part.
Lewis
Part two.
Mike
Yeah, part two.
Lewis
I'm the only one here, though. So me and Jimmy. So me and Jimmy, we'll handle much. I won't melt down like Tyler. When we have the problems with me and Jimmy, I'll just get through it nice and smooth. We'll have, I believe, Big J's coming on as our co host.
Mike
So that's gonna be cool.
Lewis
And then that night, we'll be on the night shift.
Jimmy
Don't let him steal anything.
Lewis
What other shows we got?
Mike
I, I, we talked about me staying for Friday. I'm staying.
Lewis
Like, we'll just.
Jimmy
Oh, no. Well, yeah, we gotta talk about all that. That's like six months.
Mike
Okay.
Lewis
I gotta go feed the steroids.
Jimmy
All right, see you guys later. See you. Thursday it.

Host: The Antihero Podcast Team
Episode Theme:
The flagship show for veterans, first responders, and blue-collar Americans blends straight-talk about news, military/veteran issues, pop culture, political commentary, and the signature bro-humor and camaraderie that binds the hosts together and to their audience. This episode delivers on difficult conversations about loss, policing, free speech, “un-cancelable” personalities, current events, corruption in sports, media conglomerate buyouts, race, genetics, and lots of playful banter.
In this lively episode, the hosts kick things off with camaraderie and sponsor shout-outs before diving into hard-hitting and often irreverent discussions about loss in the veteran and first responder communities, the current state of discourse around policing and crime in American cities, and the problems facing free speech in a cancel culture world.
Mid-episode brings sharp and humorous breakdowns of current events, including rising tensions in East Asia, controversy around Chicago’s murder rates and political leadership, sports corruption conspiracies, and sharp takes on regime change and government narratives. Frequent technical issues cause frustration and provide comic relief, while the lighter side of the show comes out in tattoo stories and gym talk.
A highlight of the show is the analysis of SNL’s “Secretary of War Pete Hegseth” parody, which the hosts use as a launching pad for a candid discussion of war, military representation in government, and media perceptions.
[00:52–03:42]
The first ~4 minutes feature enthusiastic sponsor plugs (TRT, Ghostbed, Elevated Silence, Patreon, merch), with humorous asides about “old lady you need new bedding” and suppressors “coated with secret sauce.”
[04:11–09:18]
The hosts discuss a supporter’s son, Weston, terminally ill and receiving Christmas cards. The conversation turns serious as they reflect on loss as parents and combat veterans.
[07:17–08:45]
Lewis reflects on not squandering daily life and doing things “now, not later” because loss—expected or sudden—can strike anyone.
[08:45–24:34]
The hosts discuss high rates of gun violence in Chicago and elsewhere, and how public discussions around black-on-black crime are fraught with accusations of racism and political gamesmanship.
[10:08–13:40]
They lament a culture where open discussion about major events is stifled by government, media, or supposed social taboos.
[11:52–13:40]
Discussion about Trump attempting to replace Biden’s appointees in federal agencies, context for how politicized these positions have become, and historical checks and balances.
[14:03–16:19]
They describe how the first part of the show is “formal,” and the back half is more fun and loose—with shout-outs to their “Night Shift” and weekly plans.
[16:37–20:52]
Mike explains a real-life near dogfight between Japanese and Chinese air forces near a carrier task force, in a scene reminiscent of Top Gun.
[21:00–22:03]
The group debates why comedians seem to have impunity for edgy jokes, referencing SNL, Shane Gillis, and the “rules” for canceling comedians.
[29:48–32:14]
Debate over “who is allowed” to discuss or joke about race, paralleling veterans-only humor with issues of free speech in comedy and music.
[35:31–39:11]
Candid discussion of police experience (“flight upon sight,” Terry v. Ohio) and why both law enforcement and civilians use statistical reasoning (which some call profiling).
[39:10–46:36]
Reflection on political correctness, the dangers of suppression, why Trump and others became “uncancelable,” and how extreme voices persist.
[56:10–63:54]
Wyatt (on Ukraine’s frontlines) explains that Russia’s winter campaign is bombing power plants to cripple civilian morale, and why anonymity is needed even over video calls.
[75:35–95:34]
The team watches and provides live commentary on the SNL skit, using it as a mirror for public perceptions of military, war crimes, and the government’s use of force.
[110:29–114:14]
Breaking down controversial NFL calls and gambling swings, the crew discusses how sports, like football, NBA, and NASCAR, aren’t free from corruption and manipulation.
[107:01–109:19]
Rapid-fire discussion on Netflix/Warner Bros/Paramount bidding war, potential monopoly, and how streaming is changing content control and narrative power.
[127:54–131:53]
Candid, sometimes controversial talk about physical genetic differences, especially in sports and bodybuilding, why performance enhancers aren’t an “easy way,” and the work ethic of athletic icons.
[51:04–55:53] and sprinkled throughout
Frequent tech failures with cameras and streams are met with a mix of frustration, dark humor (“the Mossad cuts in electronically and kills our feed”), and camaraderie.
The Antihero Broadcast walks (and sometimes dances on) the line between irreverence and sobering reality. The hosts mix gallows humor, brash authenticity, and open disagreement—all held together by mutual respect, friendship, and their shared veteran/law enforcement experience.
The tone is fast, rambly, and rowdy—jumping from Twitter memes about Xi Jinping as Winnie the Pooh to why cops and civilians both need to rely on honest statistics—even when it’s “not PC.” The vulnerability shown when discussing loss in the veteran/first responder community, as well as the “uncancelable” nature of honest, probing talk, illustrates why the show resonates with its audience.
If you’re seeking a podcast that combines news analysis, military/LEO humor, uncensored social commentary, and a dash of barbershop-level banter—The Antihero Broadcast delivers. This episode, despite some streaming hiccups, captures the group’s approach to showing up for one another and their audience—even when technical or conversational crash-outs abound.
