[Mike]

Good morning.

[Lewis]

Hi.

[Mike]

Hello.

[Lewis]

Lewis started it when I was still walking around. I know.

[Mike]

I told him to.

[Lewis]

I had the music.

[Mike]

Lewis was stressing that you weren't ready. Itching at the button.

[Lewis]

Do you always open your water when you first start the show or do you open it when you sit down?

[Mike]

I just open it whenever I want.

[Lewis]

Okay.

[Mike]

I don't know. That's true.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Mike]

I think absolute.

[Lewis]

I live dangerously. I open it whenever I want.

[Mike]

Yeah. I think there's a. There's a set break down.

[Lewis]

I'm the same way.

[Canine]

Lewis.

[Lewis]

I get it.

[Mike]

Nobody here was here to shake up my sprite today.

[Lewis]

It didn't explode.

[Mike]

No, it's bright. Didn't explode today.

[Lewis]

All right, so the first thing obviously is this crazy ass video. Is this nypd?

[Mike]

No. Wow. Okay, this is already wrong in Washington. Washington. Agency in Washington.

[Lewis]

Oh, conservative state.

[Mike]

I love it. Yeah. This has been all over the Internet. I don't know if Liz has got the right video queued up because it doesn't look good, but we'll see.

[Lewis]

Lewis, I have faith in you. All right.

[Mike]

All right, pause. So let's set the tone. This is a. This person called in a domestic. Not that they were involved. This person just said, I witnessed a domestic. And this is a response to the scene from the officer's body cam. It was just released. Roll scene. Try to put.

[Jimmy]

False case.

[Mike]

Yeah. Scott, stand there with hands in his pocket. Right now. Yeah.

[Lewis]

DV Are people arguing? Yes.

[Mike]

What's your name?

[Canine]

Jude.

[Mike]

Yes. Okay, so.

[Lewis]

So in case anybody, we're gonna break down a video. It's. It's. It looks like two officers initially talking to a subject that's got his back against the column, just kind of chilling. He's got his hands in his pockets, he's got a jacket on. And so we're watching one body cam now, but essentially, well, what happens for the audio list is he just ambushes a cop, draws him in, and then for no reason at all, attacks him with a knife.

[Mike]

Go. Just to me to understand you.

[Lewis]

You call us because he.

[Mike]

He said to dispatch you saw two people arguing. Okay, let's get to that first and then we go to the second part.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, so that was happening. Over.

[Mike]

Okay, look at this.

[Lewis]

So they're highlighting.

[Mike]

Don't move. Stop. Help you. You understand?

[Lewis]

Knife still in his hand.

[Mike]

Lay on your stomach. Let go of the knife. Drop it. Drop the knife on your stomach so we can help you.

[Lewis]

Helping him.

[Mike]

All right, here's a. An alternate view, I believe.

[Lewis]

Second Oscar. They two man cars. Oh, okay, so it's a. It's a two man car.

[Mike]

Shots fire. Shots fire. Get your hands out. Lay on your stomach. I've got cause. Lay on your stomach now. Lay on your stomach. So we can help you. Do you understand?

[Lewis]

No. The first video you showed me, I got that part.

[Mike]

I didn't want to show that portion up front because it shows exactly what happens and then they go into the.

[Lewis]

Breakdown because you see the cop. Because in this, in these videos you don't see the. The cop that is initially talking to him has his hands in his.

[Mike]

I know we're gonna get there. We're gonna get there. Finish watch. I wanted to send it in two parts because I didn't want to ruin the video because if you watch it from the beginning, you're going to see that all right away. So I'm going to go back. Good. You finish watching. Trying to lay on your stomach. Let go of the night. So now we're going to revert. Drop it. Now turn on your stomach so we can help.

[Lewis]

Interesting.

[Mike]

Yeah, very interesting.

[Lewis]

All right, play it again.

[Jimmy]

Try to put a false. False case saying you're the one that.

[Mike]

Called about the DD that happened right now. Can you pause it real quick? Can you pause it real quick? So did you hear what he said?

[Lewis]

Are you the one that called by the about.

[Mike]

No, before that he said you some see talking about somebody trying to put a false case on him.

[Lewis]

So there's like it's already weird.

[Mike]

Somebody's trying to sabotage him. What I want you to notice in this part and we'll go back. Louis, the other one, you can start working on that one. I just emailed it to get that one queued up right next. But anytime you roll up to a scene, I know it's cold, it's outside, it's northern or northwest and but you can't have hands in pockets and people seem crazy and, and get all upset when people cops are like get your hands out of your pocket. Don't do.

[Jimmy]

This is why.

[Mike]

This is why. These are why and and unfortunately the. The norm used to be nobody was going to stab the cops. Nobody's going to shoot the cops. 20, 30, 40, 50 years ago it was a very usually called initiated traffic stop drug trafficking. There wasn't ambushes. There wasn't just guys calling 911 to go I'm gonna kill this cop when he gets here. The last cop we lost. Well we did the show on was a. Was a fraud call where we lost a brand new officer. Fraud call. How many guys got killed on a fraud call? This is a call so you're walking up. We're allowing people to now because of social media and scrutiny and don't be aggressive and de escalate. We're allowing people to stand around with their hands in their pockets. And it's becoming a huge problem. Look at the distance that they're at. They have no idea this guy's intentions. And then when we watch the other video, we'll break down the vest and all that stuff. But just think, I wouldn't want to talk. This guy's moving around, hands in his pockets. He's starting out that weird. Like, they put a case on me. I don't know that whole context, but.

[Lewis]

He'S got a coke mask, which means he's a weirdo.

[Mike]

Yes, yes. So keep going if you want to keep watching again. Yes. What's your name, dude?

[Lewis]

I like the knife. Yeah.

[Mike]

Like, you'll see they're showing that he.

[Jimmy]

Reaches for the night just to me to understand you.

[Lewis]

You call.

[Mike]

You said to this guy, you saw two people arguing. Okay, let's get to that first. And then we go to the second part. So that was happening over directs that was happening over there. Cops are looking that way now he's going for the knife. That's part of his train of thought. I'm gonna get him. Look over there. He's got his hands in his vest. Look over there. And then go. As soon as he says, look over there, Boom. You can start it again. Lewis going in over there. And here it comes. So that was all part of it. Now look how. Look how much stabbing. Remember the stabbing cabin? There was like a whole weird.

[Lewis]

I don't remember that.

[Mike]

You do. Look how much stabbing cabin happens before these guys can react at this close distance. He's already stabbing the first one. Go ahead.

[Lewis]

All right, go back a little bit.

[Mike]

Go back a little bit. Right here. Now I want you to watch. You know, a sympathetic reaction is right. He fires. Bang, bang, bang, bang. And for some reason on God's earth.

[Lewis]

He hits him again.

[Mike]

For some reason on God's earth, if you shoot somebody, you have to immediately pause the gunfight and tell everybody in the world that you shot somebody. You're not supposed to continue the fight. You're not supposed to stay engaged. You're not supposed to stay on target. You have to stop the gunfight and say, dispatch, I shot somebody. We have to tell everybody. Watch what happens when he keys the radio up to say that he shot somebody. Watch what the Watch. Watch what happens. They both go off together. That shot was unintentional. Not met. Didn't mean to shoot him.

[Lewis]

You don't know that I'm bro. That I don't have a problem with it.

[Mike]

He can still keep shooting.

[Lewis]

What's the thing that they always say that we. We keep shooting even though, like, he's down.

[Mike]

People are. It takes your brain time to cross it.

[Lewis]

It's funny. You're not arguing that point. You're arguing.

[Mike]

No, no. I don't have a problem with what he did. He could keep shooting them. He didn't mean to.

[Lewis]

Are you sure?

[Mike]

1,000%.

[Lewis]

Ask his lawyers.

[Mike]

I know he meant to then. But that is a sympathetic reflex. Just like one. Do you remember that old. Do you ever watch that old. Old grainy video of that D. A? Like, undercover takedown is in Jacksonville. We watched it in 4. Science. It was one of the classes I went to. He's chasing in a foot pursuit. He's got his gun in his hand. He grabs the dude's scruff as he's. And he shoots a dude right in the back of the head. Completely on accident. I swear. I know it was. He got off. He wouldn't get off now, but he got off. He shoots a dude. As soon as he does, he takes his gun and throws it. He's like, oh, my God. And he goes into, like, full meltdown, you know? It was an accident. Yeah. But that's the sympathetic reaction. So that's exactly what we just saw. He keys the radio up. And as he keys up both fingers.

[Lewis]

Which is human nature.

[Mike]

Yes.

[Lewis]

Unless you trained keying up on the radio, shooting your gun, which is not something we do. Right. Because you're not supposed to keep on.

[Mike]

The radar, supposed to be on the road in the middle of a gun. That's my point. I don't care. I have no problem with the extra round. Keep shooting them. It's the fact that you're on the radio calling for telling everybody that you're in the middle of a gunfight, which is not the time to tell everybody. So if you want to bring that other video up, Lewis, we'll watch the very beginning.

[Wyatt]

Yes.

[Mike]

All right, start it over. Slide that little bar back over. So what I'm going to point out here is distance and some of the things. I didn't point this out. My wonderful wife pointed this out because she dissects these things way better than me. It's cold out. I get it. But you ever been on a call and you're like, I gotta starve and haven't had breakfast yet. Watch the pants in the vest and the bouncing of the knees. Like he's uninterested in what's going on. Roll scene. Arguing.

[Wyatt]

Yes.

[Mike]

You thought about that?

[Canine]

Yes.

[Mike]

Okay, so. Get to that first. And then we go to the second part.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Mike]

So second part, I think, is his conspiracy that people are trying to put a case on him. So he's like, let's get to the disturbance. I believe if we were to go back, we would hear something about this guy. Somebody's trying to get me because he says, let's put that on pause. Yeah, let's get to this disturbance because I gotta get the out. Once it's disturbance, I'm gone.

[Lewis]

I'm tracking that. You're. You're mentally ill. Yes.

[Mike]

Yes. Yeah, Good. That was happening over. Anthony Vest taking the legs. Boom.

[Lewis]

Lewis, what was that last setup you had with the, with the, the way it looked on the screen? Go back.

[Mike]

I just put in full screen for you guys to see it. No, he had it one different. Where we were big with the screen.

[Canine]

We were.

[Mike]

Yeah, there you go. Perfect. Yeah, go back to that one.

[Lewis]

Can everybody else see that too?

[Mike]

Yep, yep, yep. Welcome to the show.

[Lewis]

Do that one from now on.

[Mike]

So back it up again so we can now that we got our stuff fixed, but back a little more. Why did you switch it back? Why did you switch it back? What in your head told you to switch it back from the way we just asked you to set it up?

[Lewis]

The last way.

[Mike]

Do we want it the other way?

[Lewis]

Go back.

[Mike]

Now they're perfect. Perfect. Don't do anything else besides sip water and click the button. Beautiful. So that was happening over. Boom. Here we go. Roll scene. Look how fast he stabbed two guys. That's good.

[Lewis]

Do you know. I mean, you probably don't. Do you know where they got stabbed at?

[Mike]

No. No. I, I, I, I. Monday morning quarterback.

[Lewis]

No one died. No.

[Mike]

Okay, well, the bad guy died, I believe. Well, yeah, Monday morning quarterback. But here's what is important.

[Lewis]

Don't do that. It's not nice.

[Mike]

This is Monday morning soccer practice recap. This is a Monday morning quarterback. This is Monday morning soccer practice recap. We need to learn from these things. And I would hope those two guys would be like, hey, yeah, like I was. Hands. Why do we ever put our hands in our vest?

[Lewis]

Here's the thing that I always butt heads with you about with a vest and all that stuff and eating lunch is that. At what point do we also train for the asteroid that's going to impact Earth?

[Mike]

I get it.

[Lewis]

You can't walk outside in fear all day long.

[Mike]

That's not the norm, though. That, that. I'm glad you said that. Yeah. No, you want to finish it? Because I'll let You know, let you bury yourself. You're going to church every Sunday praying for preparing for heaven and God and the God to come back. Yeah, hasn't happened in a long time. But we're preparing for that. That's the.

[Lewis]

But I don't walk outside like no but.

[Mike]

Yeah, you're supposed to act a certain way to make sure it happens.

[Lewis]

If it happens, it happens.

[Mike]

But when it happens, you're preparing yourself to be ready for when that happens. So you got to prepare yourself for ready for that happens. You can't walk around going, nobody's gonna stab me today.

[Lewis]

But if you did, I mean that is a think of a good odd. Let's say that happening. I know you can't. There's really no way to actually do this. But I'm just. For numbers sake, I'm gonna say 1 out of every 10000 calls go like that.

[Mike]

Beautiful.

[Lewis]

Is that a good number? You agree?

[Mike]

I'll give you that one.

[Lewis]

Probably.

[Mike]

Probably more. But you want to go low, we'll go low. Probably less than that. I mean more in your favor. Probably one in a hundred thousand.

[Lewis]

So you're supposed to walk around every call thing and then that's gonna happen?

[Canine]

Nope.

[Mike]

But you're. If you don't stand with your hands in your vestige at all. And you think I'm gonna be ready. Just like you're taught in the police academy to stand with your little hands and that interview stance and you're ready to go at all times. If you handle all calls in a. I'm not talking about crazy, but if you handle all calls in a similar manner, like, hey, this dude's got his hands in his pockets, that's not good. If he was a black male with dreadlocks, you think he'd be standing with his hands in his pockets?

[Lewis]

Nope.

[Mike]

Okay, okay. Why did he say that? Yeah, exactly. Hey man, I saw him reaching for a guy. He'd have been shot before his hands came out of his pockets. Because they would have articulated based on their training and experience, he probably had a gun and was going to shoot them. But because it's a white guy with his hands in his pockets, nobody cares. So in my opinion, if you're prepared at all times, not like this guy, I got my rifle out.

[Lewis]

Here's another point I'm gonna say I'm gonna. For all of our non law enforcement support reporters.

[Mike]

Right.

[Lewis]

You're talking to the police. Right. Would you. And I'm going to do a demonstration. So I'm gonna need you to go to the middle camera.

[Mike]

Lewis, you're asking a lot.

[Lewis]

Would you rather. Would you rather. Damn. Mike's on a sick one today. Would you rather me stand the first way and talk with you, or do you feel it's a more humane approach for me to talk you the segue. All right, so.

[Mike]

Okay. Okay. All right.

[Lewis]

So I'm talking. I'm talking to this camera right here, right?

[Mike]

Yep. Okay. They're both gay. They're both gay. That's what we were taught way back in the seventies. I don't know. Your hands were in front. You were taught that. Look how he's sitting. See, we have a guest. We have an in studio guest that is mimicking. But he's more my age, so he understands what he would. He started in the 90s. If you're talking, but looped in is okay. I don't know what just happened. The whole sound changed. All right, we're better. Yeah. Lewis is on. Lewis is on one today. So hook thumbs is not terrible. I'm not. I'm okay with hook thumbs. Hook thumbs or resting on your taser. Your camera.

[Lewis]

Okay.

[Mike]

I'm okay with hooked. All right.

[Lewis]

But he had his hand in because it's cold, right?

[Mike]

Yeah, it is.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Mike]

It was cold in World War II. And them guys. Those guys fought in the pretty hard.

[Lewis]

So I was. I was also. It's hard because gravity to go to your gun. There's really no argument for it. But going against gravity to defend yourself, there is an argument that you have to remove.

[Mike]

I'm okay with up high. Okay. Because in jiu jitsu or any other fighting stance, you don't stand with your hands at your sides. You stand with your hands in a ready position here is realistic. More ready. I used, you know, if you hook on some. But to be in the vest. In the vest. What you watch. That whole setup that guy created was. Yeah, it was over there. And then like where? Over there.

[Lewis]

You really giving that guy credit?

[Mike]

Yeah, he did that. Watch. It's absolutely. He directs their attention over there. They all look over there, and then he goes into the knife and comes out with it.

[Lewis]

Let's watch the. The second video again.

[Mike]

The newest one.

[Lewis]

The newest one.

[Mike]

Be careful how you say that.

[Lewis]

Yes.

[Mike]

You thought about that?

[Lewis]

Yes.

[Mike]

Okay, so. You got a producer on our hand. Think about it right now. Okay, let's get to that first. And then we look at the second part.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Mike]

So that was happening over away.

[Lewis]

Boom.

[Mike]

In. All set up.

[Lewis]

Yeah. You just had.

[Mike]

You don't know Spanish? I know more Spanish than you this.

[Lewis]

About the state Stab you not know Spanish.

[Mike]

You guys said he was Hispanic.

[Jimmy]

You.

[Lewis]

Louis, you know says Spanish a little bit.

[Mike]

I don't talk with Spanish very much. I know how you like that.

[Lewis]

Lewis isn't a proud.

[Mike]

He's a proud American. So. So am I. I just know some Spanish.

[Lewis]

Why do you know Spanish?

[Mike]

I worked in a Spanish neighborhood. I worked in a Spanish neighborhood. Okay. I like tacos.

[Lewis]

I like taco. I. I guess my biggest thing is that it's. You have to treat every citizen encounter like they're going to kill you.

[Mike]

No, I knew you're going there. We're not going that far. You have to be mentally prepared and think that that could happen, not act like it. That's why we get paid the big bucks and that's why we have this massive responsibility. And all these free discounts at 10 off here and 20 off there.

[Lewis]

50% off. Yeah.

[Mike]

Chipotle 50 chick fil a is free.

[Lewis]

Yeah. Depending on the Chick Fil A. Sometimes you take. They take advantage of it.

[Mike]

So that's why we have all this training available and we watch all these millions of videos because, you know, our sports stars play for millions of dollars. They don't play for their lives. We play for our lives every day. So we should be more involved than sports people. You should not be with your gun out and have a sniper ready and have seven backup officers. But you should be thinking, I've watched this before. I've seen guys go in their pocket. I can't see what's in those pockets. I wonder what is in those pockets. What if he's got a gun?

[Lewis]

No fair. It's a fair assessment to.

[Mike]

And he's got gloves on.

[Lewis]

Do you think it would have sped it up if they would have said, hey, dude, keep your hands out of your pockets.

[Mike]

Created the beginning of the compliance?

[Lewis]

I would. It would have been like, holy, this guy's not throat.

[Mike]

As soon as he does. Yeah, you can. Sir, get your hands.

[Lewis]

Punch a dude for not taking his hands out.

[Mike]

Sir, get your hands out of your pockets if you want to talk to me. Or you leave. And then when he says no, obviously he's not detained. So you could put a detained guy in his throat. This guy is a citizen calling in. So let's go though. You're right, you're right. But if he was like a suspicious person or you had legal. The reason to which a lot of cops don't know what articulable suspicion is. But if you had articulable, reasonable articular suspicion to Stop him. And he refused. He'd be resisting. Then you punch him in the throat. But this guy know you can't. But you would not. Like, think about this.

[Lewis]

I think it would have put it in their heads that this night might not be their everyday call if they had just said, hey, do me a favor, keep your hands out of pockets.

[Mike]

Correct.

[Lewis]

I say that all the time.

[Mike]

Or out of the car and go. Do you have to approach them that close? Because you stood on the other side of your car.

[Lewis]

And a lot of people don't know this. As a cop, if someone is having an issue, like, let's say they're nervous. Or let's say they're like Lewis and they don't listen to you, right? And. But they don't mean to. They don't mean to. They're not trying to. And they keep doing it.

[Mike]

Go.

[Lewis]

Okay, I'll tell you what. Let me. Can I look in your pockets, make sure there's nothing in there that can hurt me. And then you can continue to put your hands in your pockets. Ask.

[Mike]

But what's the first gauge of compliance? Sir, stand over there. Sir, take your hands out of your pocket. Sir, roll your window. When you get a car in a traffic stop, roll your windows down for me. You go right away. Okay. There's some compliance to him. Hey, man, I don't know who you are. You called in something and the argument. Oh, he's. It's cold out. Well, he's got gloves on, so you shouldn't need gloves. And your pockets. Keep your hands on your pockets, dude, or I'm leaving. Like, I'm not talking to you or I'm gonna search you like you said. Hey, sir, you keep reaching your pockets. I need to make sure you don't have a weapon on you before I continue this conversation. Simple stuff. And I'm not. I don't want to see anybody get hurt. I'm not on these guys.

[Lewis]

But. But you're right, it's preventable. The overall thing for law enforcement is the fact that we have to be so kind and polite now that a lot of guys think they can't just. Your stance, your movements, your tone, your talk is not mean and it's not aggressive, but it's. I'm. I'm gonna be on top of this whole situation. I cannot have. I mean, you're gonna react, but I can't be the reactionary guy in this situation. So my movements are going to be stern and quick. They're not aggressive, but my tone is going to be very Clear but not aggressive.

[Mike]

Yeah, you know, here's. Here's a good point. Most of our go getter goon like blacked out eye guys jobs alive and well. Guys are like, there's no such thing as a routine call. We're out here doing God's work. We're. We're vigilant. We're ready. Well, then why are we treating calls like and guy's got his hands in his pockets.

[Lewis]

It's no big deal.

[Mike]

But then why aren't we all. Why isn't it across the board? Why is an admin say directive number 1 dilks01 is Sheriff Admin would love there's no more routine calls.

[Lewis]

On top of everything else they write.

[Mike]

You up for, I want you to treat every citizen as if they have a knife in their pocket. And I don't mean beat them up. I don't mean tase them. I mean talk to them like, hey, sir, I don't know who you are. I don't know why you keep reaching your hands in your pockets. I would appreciate to go home to my family tonight, not have a stab went through my skull call. Can you not reach in your pocket? We can talk about anything you want to talk about. You want to talk about how much stuck.

[Lewis]

Can you play it while we're talking about it? Can you play it with no sound where we're big again? That was pretty cool. Yeah, so you inadvertently did that, but I like it.

[Mike]

So, you know, I would. If I was in charge, I would say, there is no routine calls. Treat every call like the person is trying to kill you. Now, we have snakes, we have snipers, we have infiltrators that come into our world. You and I and everybody that have those intentions. But we treat them a certain way. We go, I'm keeping my distance on this guy. You should treat every citizen contact. I don't know why this person has called me. I don't see a disturbance around here. Now he's talking about he's being set up by somebody. This is. This is different. But. And I'm, I'm not saying draw your rifle on everybody and throw them on the ground, but be vigilant.

[Lewis]

It's funny that they teach you in the academy to treat everybody like they have. Yeah, plus one they caught it. Plus one, we get out of the academy. Yeah, they. It's all of a sudden now the politics of the job when you. Because what used to happen is you used to get a complaint on you and a supervisor would go, yeah, it's. I'M not even gonna bother my guy with this, right? He was mean to me. Okay, Let me wash the body cam. You watch the body cam. It was just stern and that was it. He was mean to me. But now. Now it's happened to me a million times, Mike. That's why I got a job is they go, listen, dude, I know you didn't do anything wrong. Next time, can you just try and like, you know, like, if I didn't do anything wrong, why are you talking to me?

[Mike]

We're gonna cover another video today, right? You can cover lots of videos, but the other big one, the Karen.

[Lewis]

Oh, yeah.

[Mike]

What if Karen shot that cop in the skull? What would you say? Share some in your window? It's happened all the time. What are you doing here? I'm a Karen. I got purple hair.

[Lewis]

That'd be a first. Statistically, that wouldn't happen.

[Mike]

Okay, but anybody male and a male.

[Lewis]

Care and he probably would have been more on.

[Mike]

I'm just saying, if it was a male. Yeah, yeah. Or if it was John Tavius, what would he have done? Burned him out. Right, but what I'm saying is, is we. We let people walk up to our car windows, right? We're in it. We're in a board.

[Lewis]

I never did. I never did. I got out good.

[Mike]

I'm glad. Probably no vest on, but at least you got that.

[Lewis]

Hold on.

[Mike]

But. But seriously, we don't like that. Right? Somebody starts walking up to your car window, you get that. Ick. You're like, they even made it. They even designed the new cars with that 360 design where if somebody got in that.

[Lewis]

Yeah, it's really hard to nap.

[Mike]

You put that thing on in the parking lot, it all goes crazy. So we don't want people. So why not? When we get out and we're walking up to somebody, do we not have that same perimeter around us that goes. No hands in pockets, no reaching. All that. That should always be on your mind. And that takes a lot of concentration. And we. But it's a serious job. We go through all this training and all these. And all these Kalia and all these goddamn accreditations and all these things we have to learn. But the basics of. I don't want another human that I don't know with his hands in his pockets reaching around in front of me, and I'm not going to tell him to stop.

[Lewis]

Lewis, does the. Does the video just stop or does it auto loop it Auto loose.

[Mike]

There's only a section that I got. I mean it.

[Lewis]

Auto plays over and over and over again until you take it down.

[Mike]

I guess so. Yeah.

[Lewis]

Can you put it back up?

[Canine]

Sure.

[Lewis]

So, like, we're all. We're a learning moment for everybody when we're talking about, like, a video, and we're continuously talking about it. You can do the. Do the one where we're big. There you go. You can leave it up with no sound to give kind of, like, people some, because they might jump in later, and I have no idea what we're talking about. So this helps them give a visual representation.

[Mike]

Because, I mean, look at his left hand. It never comes out. Left hand is stuck there. He's got gloves on. He can't be that cold. And then he directs him that way. He looks that way. And now he's fishing. And, like, you can see that's not like he's looking for something. But you have to be thinking about that. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not that guy. Like, all these guys are terrible. They could be the best cops on earth.

[Lewis]

It happens.

[Mike]

You let your guard down. You get sucked into, like, this kind of call. But this is where I put it on administration and I put it on the guys to be loud and vocal. Like, we need to be able to tell people, dude, get your hands out of your pocket. Maybe on the second one. Hey, man, get your hands out of your pocket. Get your hands at it. Like, you gotta be able to get to. Or do you want that Maybe some.

[Lewis]

Assignment for saying, okay, great, that guy.

[Mike]

Might have decided to stab them guys. 100. No chance. Or if I go full psycho, like, lobby Mike and go full cycle on that guy, like.

[Lewis]

Or just, like, 10 minutes ago.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Mike]

And I'd go full psycho on him and start yelling at him. Maybe he goes, all right, this ain't the guy. These aren't the guys. This ain't the ones I want to do.

[Lewis]

These aren't the ones. I'm not a soft target. They're not soft targets.

[Mike]

Maybe.

[Lewis]

Maybe. Or. Or, I mean, dude, you are allowed to do so much as a cop. If I say, hey, do me a favor and put your. Get your hands out of your pocket. But my hand goes over my gun. That's letting you know. I know that. I know that. What could be there?

[Mike]

Yeah, what could be there?

[Lewis]

And I don't have to draw it. I don't even have to look at it. I just put my hand in my gun.

[Mike]

I know right now my DMs will get full of agencies that would flip if you Walked around on your gun.

[Lewis]

Even in a scenario where you.

[Mike]

Maybe not like this, but just you. How many times you've had it? Would you reach for your gun, dog, while you got your hand on your gun? You've never.

[Lewis]

Oh, I would never do. I would do it in a time like this. I wouldn't do it with a. With somebody that I know is.

[Mike]

I had a habit. I had a little. I'm autistic. I have a little. I had a little spinny thing on the top of my holster and I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't help it. And I would just play with it, play with it. My hand was always right there. So it was great. But they're like, wait. I'm like, no, look, I guess. Little thing. Here, I got my spinner.

[Lewis]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mike]

Here, check it out. To sick.

[Lewis]

Be careful.

[Mike]

So, yeah, that's.

[Canine]

That.

[Mike]

That's all I got to say about it.

[Lewis]

Well, we got some super chats. Pride assassin.

[Mike]

Bring it back.

[Lewis]

Says I in God we trust everybody else. Let me see your hands. That's a good shirt. I like that. Yeah, that's a good shirt. And Mike Fritz says, do captains have pep route?

[Mike]

Oh, I lost it right there. Do captains have pep rally messages to his office for every shift to remind them to be vigilant and guard? No, no, they should.

[Lewis]

No, you shouldn't say no. Blanket.

[Mike]

Some good agencies do, but a good briefing, we don't have them every day.

[Lewis]

A good briefing is the shift gets briefed before every shift. And it's hard to do that because you got calls pending. You have to have some kind of middle or swing shift to be able to do that. So there's overlapping coverage of calls. And you're supposed to go over stolen cars in the area, fresh ones within 24 hours. People with warrants that are known to be in your area, maybe missing people, if you want to care about that. But, you know, but, but here I'm.

[Mike]

Gonna play the devil.

[Lewis]

And, and, and, and new case law that comes out your troops. Well, that's what I always said. I'm like, put it in layman's terms. You sit at a desk all day long. You come out and show your face. You sit at a desk, all that. You sit down and you do your little highlighting thing and you compare the old way. Let us know. In layman's terms, we signed it. You really think we know it? How many.

[Mike]

How many agents do you think debriefed the new 25 foot Halo wall in Florida?

[Lewis]

I would hope so. No, but they would be like. What they would do is that they would say. If they did, they would say, this doesn't mean that you can. So just because you have this, that DeSantis put this in for you. I don't know who did, but I'm assuming it's DeSantis.

[Mike]

It was. He ultimately. Yeah, passed it.

[Lewis]

You still can't do all of these things because they're worried that cops are gonna be like, get the. Out of my 24 foot.

[Mike]

Should we need a briefing to tell people. Don't let people stand in front of you with their hands in their pockets reaching around. I don't think you need a briefing for that. You might need a briefing for case law. If something wild happened, like, hey, we had a guy pull a lightsaber out of his pants last week in Washington. We probably should debrief the lightsaber. Other than that, it's pretty. COP101. If you're doing the job, like, you don't want people's hands reaching around cars, you don't want people's hands reaching in bags. You don't want people's hands reaching in pockets. That's like cop 101, man. That should be standard practice. Get your hands out of your pockets. That's it. That's it.

[Jimmy]

Simple.

[Lewis]

Lewis, did you take the video down again?

[Mike]

No, that's what I told him to.

[Lewis]

Okay.

[Mike]

He was coding earlier. He's trying to have a good day. Lewis is okay. We love Lewis.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Lewis]

So other topics to talk about. There's a couple of them, but they're many reflections. Is old Rob o' Neill.

[Mike]

Robert Neil.

[Lewis]

Yeah, he was. Well, yeah. So Robert Neil came in town for the. There you go. Whoa. He was in town for the 500. Some people sent us where the flyer for where he was going to be at. He was doing a meet and greet for about an hour, and it was advised that we not show up and just support Rob o' Neill and his. You know, I forgot to go.

[Mike]

I'm sorry.

[Lewis]

I didn't go. I didn't either, so. But he was. He was. Barstool sports was there, and they came up to him and shook his hand. And the. The caption they put. I believe it's in. Can you go to Instagram Loose.

[Mike]

Sure, one sec.

[Jimmy]

Sure.

[Lewis]

One sec. It is open. I'll give them that. It's open. Just in another window.

[Mike]

Who told him to open it?

[Lewis]

I did. No, it's not in our DMs. Can you actually go to our profile page?

[Mike]

No, that's not. That's not it.

[Lewis]

So go click the anti hero broadcast up there on the top. Boom. Try clicking it again. No. Okay, so get out. No, don't log out.

[Mike]

Don't log out. Oh, that way.

[Lewis]

Yeah. Now click that little circle up there with the skull in it. No, no, it's in the stories. There you go. Now stop it and put that one up.

[Mike]

All right, one sec.

[Lewis]

This is Barstool Sports. Can you read that caption, Mike? I can't read it.

[Mike]

It says, never know who you'll run into before race day, including the dude who killed Osama bin Laden, hashtag mcface in a flag.

[Lewis]

So obviously, we. You can. And then you can take it down. We. I don't expect Barstool Sports to be tracking anything. Rob o'. Neill. They're a sports media company, Right. But they have a veteran podcast called Bold. Boldly Patriotic or Bold American. A Bold American podcast. That's what it's called. And I tagged them in this, and I was like, hey, dude, you know, can you. You should probably be like, the advocate arm of that, right? Like, if I own a business and I have a department over here that handles something, I would expect them to come to me and go, hey, I. On behalf of the veteran side of the house, that's not true.

[Mike]

Or there's speculation.

[Lewis]

Yeah. At least there's conflicting stories. And they reached out to us this morning, and they were like, I'm trying to paraphrase it, but they were playing stupid. And I was like, if you're a veteran podcast and you don't know what the Rob o' Neal issue is, how veteran are you? Yeah, he was like, well, I mean, his two things were first. I mean, it's kind of an old story. So what are we supposed to do, cover it every day? And I was like, no, but you could at least touch upon it. And then he said, well, and the guy. Bring it. Bring it back up loose. So the guy right there on the left, the bald guy, his name is large or something like that. I don't know for Barstool Sports. And he was like, well, largest family was killed in the towers of 9 11. Is it that big of a deal to give him some closure? I'm like, bro, if largest feelings mean more than the truth of the biggest military operation ever, then by all means that at the end. So then, you know, we invited him on the show.

[Mike]

So he went there. Okay. So he went there and thanked Robert o' Neill for killing himself and bin Laden because his family.

[Lewis]

Yeah, but there's Kind of that. Kind of that, like heartstrings. Rob always pulls.

[Mike]

That's a good one.

[Lewis]

That's everybody's. That's everybody's. Go to. I was like, well, does it really matter? Well, apparently it does to Rob, because all we said was, we don't think it's true. And.

[Mike]

Yeah, well, the lawsuit is new, too. If you're up in the veteran world and covered all the way to, you know, Sean Ryan and all these major podcasts, like, how do you not see those guys talking about the new lawsuit stuff?

[Lewis]

It's asinine. But I think that if you remove those, it's political. Yeah, I don't want it.

[Mike]

I mean, obviously they're sports entertainment. They're going to keep it happy. They're going to like, Disney it and, oh, there's no problems in the vet community. Everything's great.

[Lewis]

That's what I say, man. Our. Our audience is the most slept on audience in the world. Real first responders and real veterans. Real, real. Yeah, like, there's no. There's no news entertainment platform for that.

[Mike]

I agree.

[Lewis]

So the 500 and Michael Jordan we'll get into with Jimmy and Canine. Go to the Instagram. DMS Lewis. Oh, oh, oh. We're there.

[Mike]

Meltdown.

[Lewis]

Malfunction, Malfunction. All right, go up. We're gonna go to Kane Velasquez. Go ahead. And right there, pause it. All right, you can go ahead and play. Well, yeah, play it once. It's up. Legend Kane Velasquez chasing after the man he allegedly shot. You can see the black SUV chasing that truck.

[Mike]

Inside the truck was a man accused of molesting a family member of Velasquez. This is exclusive video captured on a cell phone camera showing what appears to.

[Lewis]

Be Velasquez chasing after the vehicle, which.

[Mike]

Seems to show bullet holes and dents on it. According to court documents, Velasquez rammed the vehicle with his own truck, then while.

[Lewis]

Driving, fired a gun aiming at this.

[Mike]

Man, Harry Gold Art, who was out.

[Lewis]

On bail after being charged with molesting.

[Mike]

A young child at a San Martin daycare center. The documents confirmed the child is a, quote, close relative of Velasquez.

[Jimmy]

MMA legend Kane Velasquez chasing after the man he alleged.

[Mike]

So he hit somebody else.

[Lewis]

Right. So what happened was, I believe it was his nephew came to last.

[Mike]

It's his nephew.

[Lewis]

The guy molested, at least shot. Kane decided to take the law into his own hands, amazingly, by the way, and chased him down and was firing into the car, ended up striking somebody that Wasn't the guy that molested his kid, Kane? He did a thousand days in county, got credit for time served and was sentenced to five years in prison, I believe only did a year. Yeah, he just got out I think yesterday on parole.

[Mike]

Yesterday.

[Lewis]

But I mean, how does Kane. How do you spend a thousand days in county jail if you're Kane Velasquez? You can't come up with a bond.

[Mike]

They probably had no bond. They probably helped.

[Lewis]

Yeah, no bond.

[Mike]

Let me shot somebody. They can come up with anything they want. John Davius gets out, you can remove that video loose.

[Lewis]

Am I, am I right?

[Mike]

He does. Where, where was it at?

[Lewis]

Probably Cali. If I had to guess, I don't.

[Mike]

Know, I would think that somebody like.

[Lewis]

Him, high profile, California.

[Mike]

Yeah, they're not going to let him out. They're going to hold him on no bond or something. I mean obviously he could get out if he.

[Lewis]

Kane Velasquez was released from California State Prison after serving a five year sentence stemming from a 2022 shooting case in Santa Clara County. His release reflected substantial custody credits for time served in jail following his arrest and additional credit accumulated while in strict pre trial supervision. Electric monitor. The case began February 28, 2022 when Velasquez was arrested after approximately 11 mile high speed pursuit through San Jose and Morgan Hill. Prosecutors alleged he chased a vehicle carrying the suspect who had been accused days earlier of molesting Velasquez's four year old son at a daycare facility. Okay, so this report is saying it's a son. Yep.

[Mike]

I mean he's justified it. I would, yeah, killing that guy. But I mean obviously he hit an innocent person, so yeah, he's more careful.

[Lewis]

Here's what, here's where it comes, what it comes down to. You look your son in the face 10 years later as he's an adult and he, and he go, and you're able to tell your son, I went to prison for a couple years for trying to kill the guy that victimized you. Or, or a guy victimized.

[Mike]

No, I'm good with it. Right?

[Lewis]

Like I'm good with it at the.

[Mike]

End of the day.

[Lewis]

I mean it sucks because if he had killed him, it ain't, it ain't 1989 anymore. Like that guy at the phone booth that killed that dude, he would be in prison for the rest of his life. You miss your son's life. So it's like, I don't know.

[Mike]

I think he still would have skirted.

[Lewis]

It if he killed him.

[Mike]

Well, unfortunately it's California. So Newsom's not going to pardon him. If it was federal, Trump would have pardoned them. You'd have to hope that.

[Lewis]

Do you think Trump would pardon somebody who. For killing a pedophile? I'm just asking. I would, but I'm.

[Mike]

I think he would. I think he would. Yeah. Excuse me. He just let a bunch of people. Again, he commuted a bunch of old, like gang rapper gang guys. Not too long. I mean, they were out. That he just basically pardoned or got rid of their sentences. So they're no longer convicted of it. But I think he would have for sure.

[Lewis]

The next thing we're going to talk about is old J Ate Up J, or Jason, however we call him Jay and Jason. He's been on the show a couple times. He's been on night shift a lot. He did one of his call outs and it was. Is his good at Instagram? Is it g day J? Dj Vlad, he is like an Adam 22 style guy or soft white underbelly type guy. What he does is. Yeah, it's that one, but give it a second. What DJ Vlad does is he interviews rappers and gets them to say dumb. The guy who's now in custody for being involved in the Tupac killing went on his show and said everything. That's why he's now in custody. Which you saw on the. On the P. Diddy documentary. Okay, but I remember, I didn't know that. Oh, he got arrested and then went back because I had seen him on dj. And you think, right, you're on. You're on a. A million subscribed podcast, like millions of subscribers, and you're out here telling the story of what happened that night. I was in the car. I saw this. I saw that.

[Mike]

Yeah, you're gonna get called in, but.

[Lewis]

Okay, now go ahead and play Jay's. Hold up.

[Mike]

What?

[Lewis]

Oh, I have a confession.

[Mike]

What do you mean you have a confession?

[Lewis]

Guys, I told you about DJ Vlad. Listen, guys, Roc Nation has been paying.

[Mike]

Me to support Megan. They also paid off the jury members and convict Tory.

[Lewis]

Listen, guys, I've been saying this all.

[Mike]

Along and I made a video a while back. I was going to go on there, expose him and Jake 1090 and put it all out there. Because my people at 50 cents, the ones I'm dealing with, told me he's straight police and he works for everybody and the government and gets paid off. Why you think his numbers are so big and why he gets all the right people and knows all the right questions to ask? Because he's an Informant, okay? Just like the rest of them. Us real podcasters out there that are non informants, real criminals did the time and didn't snitch, didn't cooperate like the rest of these clowns out here do. This guy right here, it's all coming out in Epstein files. More to come. I promise you there's gonna be more confessions. You know why he's doing this? He's trying to get ahead of it before it comes out and everybody sees it. So everybody's scrambling to go, hey, man, hey, look, this is why I did it. This is what went on to try to save their ass. Guys, listen. Quit paying attention to these people. Come to some real podcasters and watch the real stuff.

[Lewis]

Guys, hold up. That's Jay for it. But I thought that was really cool because JD Vlad or DJ Vlad is. Is huge. And now Jay's accusing him of working with the feds as an informant. But Jay would know. Yeah, I mean, if anybody would know, Jay would know. All right, where is Jim Bob in. Is Jimmy in the lobby?

[Mike]

No, I think he left. Yep.

[Lewis]

Oh, okay.

[Mike]

What else we got? Well, bring canine in after.

[Lewis]

Yeah, after the commercial break. So everything else, I mean, we obviously has the. The Sheriff Sanders.

[Mike]

We'll talk about that the second half of the.

[Canine]

Oh, he's here.

[Lewis]

Oh, he's here. Yeah.

[Mike]

Broadcast.

[Lewis]

We can talk about Jimmy.

[Jimmy]

Hey, good morning, guys. How are you?

[Lewis]

What's up, man? So the first thing I want to ask you. I've been. I've been wanting to ask you. The video that we broke down at the beginning of the show. I was trying to tell Mike that. That you're a civilian, you're talking to the police for whatever reason.

[Canine]

Right.

[Lewis]

Let's just say for all intents and purposes, you're not in trouble. You called them and. Or you're a victim. And I'm standing there in the proper interview stance that you're supposed to stand there in order to defend yourself against a crazy knife wielding subject. Or if I'm standing there, chill. And my body laying when showing you that although I'm a government official and I am the big scary police, I'm a human too. What one do you prefer and do you understand the stance and why that would be necessary?

[Jimmy]

So, I mean, I know the interview stance pretty well. I, I. Can you.

[Lewis]

Oh, hold on.

[Jimmy]

Can you hear me?

[Lewis]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

I mean, my shit's on.

[Mike]

Now. Check.

[Lewis]

Hey, check.

[Mike]

Can you hear you?

[Jimmy]

Yo, yo, yo.

[Lewis]

Did you turn it back on?

[Mike]

Yeah, I did.

[Lewis]

Oh, my.

[Jimmy]

My shit's working.

[Lewis]

I don't have? Well, we heard him and then we didn't hear him.

[Mike]

They hear them. Well, we don't.

[Lewis]

Okay, turn that switch off, Lewis. We're gonna go dark for 10 seconds. Turn it off. All right. Now. All right, go ahead. Can you hear us, Jimmy?

[Jimmy]

Good morning. Can you guys hear me? Okay.

[Lewis]

All right, so we can't hear you. The crowd can hear you, but we can't. So what we're gonna do is give.

[Jimmy]

Me a come out, come back in.

[Lewis]

Oh, got you, got you, got you. We're here. We can hear you.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Lewis]

That was your faultless. Yeah, I pressed me up on my accent. Oh, okay. Well, let's try to not press the mute button.

[Jimmy]

Okay.

[Lewis]

So anyways, Jimmy, thank you for waiting.

[Jimmy]

Like. Like, I understand the interview stance.

[Lewis]

I. I get it.

[Jimmy]

I. I much rather. I mean, but I mean, my background is what it is. So, like, if I see a guy like, you know, he's hooked into his vest, like, I mean, the number of times I did that, you know, wearing my own vest. You know what I mean? Like, I get it.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

But I'm also pretty cognizant of the fact, like, hey, probably shouldn't put my hands in my pockets. Eyes and hands. That's what I was taught to look at. Eyes and hands, Eyes and hands. So I always try to. Like, if I'm going to talk to somebody, I'll either cross my arms or occasionally I'll. I'll put my hands in front of me, you know, like modified parade rest. I would much rather have a cop talking to me. Like, if Mike looked at me and said, hey, man, can you do me a favor and keep your hands out of your pockets? My bad, bro. That's exactly what I'm gonna do.

[Mike]

Obviously, the difference is at war. But if you got. Now your version of what police contact would be, as you guys are clearing buildings and you come across an unknown, would anybody in your stick sling their rifle and put their hands in their vest to talk to a possible military age male during gwat?

[Jimmy]

Absolutely not.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

Absolutely.

[Mike]

Again, I know you're at war, and this isn't a war, but when you're involved in the job and you're doing your function, you're ready to go. You're ready for a guy to reach for a suicide bomb or a grenade. Yeah.

[Jimmy]

The only time that would happen is if we were at a venue. It's already been cleared and searched and everybody's taking their stuff off. But there's so many people around you that are ready to fight that. That's when it makes sense. But if I was going to talk to somebody in Iraq and I did, it was, you know, hand on the rifle. Hey, bro, come here, come here. You know, obviously we can't do that.

[Mike]

But I mean, hands in the pockets is just the things that click in my brain are he's got gloves on, so he's already got warm hands. His hands are warming up. Now you have to go in your pockets. It's just then he's digging around in his pocket, moving it. It was just all a lot of unnatural movements that cue me to it. Just.

[Lewis]

Okay, so you, you, Jimmy. Yeah. You understand. Because I wanted to ask somebody not on the law enforcement side if they understand the stances and if it 100, 100.

[Jimmy]

I mean, like, I'll be honest. Like, and I did. I mean, obviously we're playing the video. Something bad's gonna happen. So you're already at like a heightened level. But like I was looking at that guy and I'm like, okay, this sounds like a crazy person. You know, I don't, I don't know about the hands of the pot. I didn't even think about that, to be honest with you. I was just like, holy. You know, so, dude, that does not happen.

[Mike]

But it happens too much. And if it was just not a little, I believe over a year ago, maybe the two year anniversary, the most horrific one, where that guy walks up on that suspicious person. But it's, it falls under the same category of vigilance. It's like he's walking up to that scene, suspicious per. It's like we treat it so like routine. The word routine has to go. And that's where I would rather have my guys be. And I'm not talking about throwing people on the ground, but be at that level of, hey, this guy seemed very militant. Well, okay, if you got a kid that fell off their bike or you got some type of scene where you have to really bring it inside of a house, a critical incident, hey, I'm sorry, but I get being solved. But when you're talking about citizen every day. We're grown ups, dude. Everyday contacts. Don't have to be a dog and pony show in, in the streets on calls for service people.

[Lewis]

That's your standard, Mike, Because I show up into a grieving house, I would say not Jimmy, that's a bad one. Let's say somebody. I don't want to put that juju on you. Let's say somebody just lost a loved one inside their own home and they're freaking out you're like, okay, man. And you relax. They pull out a nice. They it and they stab you. Then we're Monday morning quarterback. And now no one's safe ever. So it's like a standard. But it's like, it's. It's got to be your own standard.

[Mike]

I mean, no, no, that's where we're. That's where we're failing. It has to be a standard from administration that. Because what happens is if you go up two octaves and tell that guy to get his hand. If you say that. Oh, God.

[Lewis]

First off, I'm your captain. I'm writing you up 100 nuts anyway.

[Mike]

If I'm elect Mike, because I'm gonna let you guys say all day long, as long as you come home safe. So you have to escalate to a point to have control. Doesn't have to be right away, but there has to be a little bit of, hey, bro, if you want to talk to me, if you want to make this report, if you need to make this complaint, you're gonna do what I tell you to do. Or if I have you legally detained, you're really going to do what I want you. If you don't want my service and you don't like the way I'm talking to you by telling you to do these things, adios, I'm getting the car and I'm leaving, and you can deal with somebody else. That's the level of where we're at. This isn't dance videos and the. All the Valentine's Day videos we just watched all the agencies make. That ain't the real world, dude. That ain't what's going on in the streets. That's not what's happened. Jacksonville Sheriff's Office has killed five people Feb. 16. Five people have been shot just in Jacksonville, Florida. It's a war out here. The is happening. You see it on tv. You have to be at the level, prepared for battle. And then as the bat as you don't see the battle coming, you bring it down.

[Lewis]

They didn't see the battle coming.

[Mike]

No, they didn't, because they didn't start at a good level. They started at zero. You can't go from zero to 100. You start around 60 and go, all right, good. I'm good here. All right, let's bring it down to 50. All right? Yep. Don't put your hand back in your pocket. I've told you twice. Like those little things, man. That's. That's how it's got to be, dude.

[Jimmy]

It's I mean, it's a rough time out there for LEOs in general because, like, I mean, like, think about the. The thing that you just said. Like, hey, I want to. I mean, I'm dealing with a person who's going through something really bad. I want to be a human in this moment. Like, I want to actually be able to be like, hey, dude, I'm really sorry that, you know. You know, your. Your. Your mom died or what. Whatever it is that's going on.

[Mike]

And.

[Jimmy]

But you also have to go, like, I don't. I don't know what these people are gonna do. So, like, you know, how do you. How do you make those decisions? Do you just go, hey, like, I'm gonna. I'm gonna keep 5ft or 10ft, or I'm gonna make sure that my back is to a wall. Or, you know, hey, make sure somebody's covering me, like, all the time. Like, how do you do that and still not look like a robot?

[Mike]

It should make you. Jimmy. It should make you uncomfortable. It should make you uncomfortable to watch somebody's hands in their pockets. Your brain. You should be trained in your brain.

[Lewis]

If he was a cop.

[Mike]

Yes. Or anybody. Any cop. Just, like when you. I don't know, whatever the scenario, when something makes you. You're like, that should make you go. But it should make you say, stop it. Stop it right now. Don't do that. It should be no different than somebody grabbing your fingers and twisting them.

[Lewis]

You should get that in the academy. That. What they don't do anymore is they don't do drills where the guy's got his hands in his pockets, and if you don't say it right away, they just put it on the Red man suit.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Lewis]

Out of you. So now.

[Mike]

Amen.

[Lewis]

You are scarred for life. Like, pockets. I don't like pockets. Suck.

[Mike]

You should. Nobody walks if the gun's already out. It's simple. The knife's already out. It's a very easy call. You do what Sal did. Sal rolls up on a call. Guy's got a gun, lifts it, lights out. That's what happens with. The problem is when you don't see it. We. We train, all that stuff. Felony stops, plus one. There's one guy in the car. There's two. There's one gun in the house. There's two. There's one knife on them. There's two. These weren't looking for one. We gotta assume there's two. Anytime somebody reaches their hands in their pockets or in a car where you can't see Them you should get the most ridiculously terrible feeling in the pit of your stomach that you never want to feel that again and go, hey, man, don't do that again. You can say it nicely. You don't have to say, write me up right away. You're gonna get a few. But after a few. But it has to start. So it has to start with the initial contact. Like, don't do these things. Just like you tell your kid, don't throw your shoes on the floor. Don't throw your clothes. Dirty clothes in the middle floor. The little simple thing. Don't put. Hey, man, I'm here to take your report. I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure you have a better day. Do not reach your hands in your pockets, please, or I'm going to search you next time you do it, or put your hands in cuffs, because I've asked you not to put your hands in your pockets. And I don't know what you have, and it's very dangerous for me. All right, man. Thanks, buddy.

[Lewis]

I'm calling to complain.

[Mike]

Good. Yeah.

[Jimmy]

I mean, I'll be honest with you. When. When Largo PD showed up, we had that dude in the shed back here, right. I made sure that those. Number one, I was backlit, like, they could see me, and number two, my hands were out, like, I'm not getting smoked. Because only thing these guys know, I. I assumed the only thing these guys know is somebody's armed, and we're coming to a call about somebody not being where they're supposed to be.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

And so I'm going like, I'm not the one.

[Mike]

But you made the decision, Jimmy. You had a gun at one point, right? And you made the decision to make. You. You made sure, as an intelligent human, to go, I don't want to have this gun out when the cops get here, though, to make sure. Yeah, right. Like, that's kind.

[Jimmy]

And the first question that that cop asked me was, where is your weapon? And I said, it is in the house.

[Mike]

Beautiful.

[Jimmy]

Right behind the door. And I went. My hands. I pointed with my head like this. I was like, it's back there behind that door. He's like, don't go grab it.

[Lewis]

I'm.

[Jimmy]

I just want to know where it is.

[Lewis]

Like, cool.

[Jimmy]

No worries, bro.

[Lewis]

Nice. All right, well, shout out to Largo pd.

[Canine]

Largo.

[Lewis]

You guys, you had something for us today about the Air Force major.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, I sent the video to Mike.

[Canine]

Actually.

[Lewis]

Yeah. What's. We got to put the video. We got to get the video from Mike to Lewis, that'll take a minute. So what we'll do is we're gonna go to a commercial break and we'll bring you back on and then we'll. And then after that, we'll. We'll wall for three. Bring on canine. Okay, cool. 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 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 on profitability. The truth, toxicity, compromised immunity and chronic inflammation. They're not fate, they're engineered. And so is your power 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 correction to decades of corruption. We are vengeance.

[Jimmy]

All right, we're back.

[Lewis]

Hey, put it on me, Lewis.

[Mike]

One second.

[Lewis]

All right. American Financing. Let's be honest, the math just doesn't add up lately. Between the grocery store and the skyrocket insurance premiums, even with a steady job, more families are being forced to rely on high interest credit cards to cover expenses. If you're a homeowner caught in that cycle carrying balances with interest rates in the 20s or even 30s, it's time to get some relief. Right now, mortgage rates are at a three year low. And my friends at American Financing are helping homeowners pay off that high interest debt rates in the low fives. They're salary based mortgage consultants, which is important because they're not commission based, they're salary based. So no matter what they say, even if you say no, they still get paid the same amount of money. They don't push loans, they build exit strategies from debt. On average, they're saving their customers $800 a month. That's insane. Plus, if you start today, you may even delay the next two mortgage payments. There are no upfront fees and obligations. To find out how much you can save, America's home for home loans is American financing. Call 866-890-8585 for more details or go to americanfinancing.net antihero to learn more. Guys, it's really important to get out of credit card debt. It's really important to at least get a relief, a breath of fresh air. Help them strategize it, help them refinance your home and help them help you finance your loan and get back on top financially.

Oh, no.

[Lewis]

Jimmy's. Hold on.

[Mike]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Don't listen to me. Lewis, what's wrong with you? Jimmy's got the video right back. Good. All right, my bad. All right, Go ahead. Run the show.

[Jimmy]

Roll it.

[Lewis]

I'm trying. So you got anything else?

[Jimmy]

So. So this. Let me to give some today.

[Lewis]

Bro.

[Jimmy]

I looked right at Tyler and was like. Before I left Friday, I was like, tyler, I am not doing it.

[Mike]

There we go.

[Lewis]

Right.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

Can you hear me now?

[Mike]

Yeah, my Sprite didn't blow up. I was saying.

[Jimmy]

Jimmy, I. I heard you. I looked right at Tyler on Friday and was like, tyler, I'm not doing it. I know I'm not. I told you.

[Lewis]

I was like. I told Mike that. Like, I don't.

[Mike]

I don't think.

[Lewis]

You seriously think.

[Mike]

No, I don't, but it's hilarious that it's suspicious it didn't happen.

[Jimmy]

Anyway, there's a lot of circumstantial evidence, but we do have some cameras.

[Lewis]

Yeah, that's true. All right, so, Lewis, you got pulled up. Jimmy, do you want to preface the video? You want to play it?

[Jimmy]

Yeah. So this. This female major, right? She was at a. I want to make sure I get her name right, because God forbid, I. I get it wrong, and then somehow I get roasted for it. So there we go. So this is, uh. She's the chief of weapons and tactics for Air Force Central Command. So that's, you know, the Middle East. Her name is Major Claire Randolph, and she is talking about the complexity of maintaining operational security in the current world that we live in.

[Lewis]

Okay, so go ahead and play it. I mean, you've got Twitter feeds of.

[Mike]

Randos that are just studying where our airplanes go and publishing it, consolidate it. Like, if US Analysts did some of that, we would consider it secret or maybe even top secret, but that stuff is just allowed on the open Internet. So operational security, especially when you're talking about a, you know, transnational movement with.

[Lewis]

Hundreds of aircraft, is really, really difficult to conceal.

[Mike]

So OPSEC is a really big concern, I think. And actually reading a recent article about.

[Lewis]

The 35th anniversary of desert Storm, it's.

[Mike]

Funny that this one is the same.

[Jimmy]

Okay, so more chest.

[Mike]

Chest, dude.

[Jimmy]

Yeah.

[Lewis]

Yeah. First off, that's. That I love this generation that's coming up now.

[Mike]

A huge amount of awards.

[Lewis]

She just said randos in a public press conference. Got a bunch of, like, randos.

[Jimmy]

Like, yeah, I mean, total. I mean, but total carrying energy. But here's the thing. She's talking about us. She's talking about what we do on counterculture. She's talking about what we do. I do on the Shadow Cast. She's talking about the same people that I get all of my information from and that we have created a network that we are now. We're actually better than the legacy media. That's her problem that during the saying she's up.

[Lewis]

She's frustrating that it's open source, so people are actually utilizing the fact that it's open source.

[Jimmy]

That's correct. She. She said that her. Their ability to hide what they're planning to do because there's so much information out there that, for example, the counterculture network will have the Shadow Cast on. And I will pull it all together just like I did prior to the invasion or the, the raid in Venezuela. I had all the information needed, and I pulled it all together and I said it over and over again on the show. Here's what's moving. This is what's there. This is the combat power that's there. Everything that you need is in place. You can go back to several of our broadcasts in the month of, end of, end of November, beginning of December. And we had all of the information, and we were saying it before the legacy media was. And, and it's irritating to. I want you to think about this. The United States military, with billions in their budget, is getting outdone by dudes with their, with time on their hands, 300 bucks in their account, eating a cheeseburger, drinking a Mountain Dew, probably not on camera. And I gotta make fun of myself.

[Mike]

Man, that was good. That. I like that. I was gonna say you beat me to it, too. He beat me to it. So you're, you're, you're, you're full steam, Jimmy.

[Lewis]

Drinking a Mountain Dew.

[Mike]

Jimmy, today, because you got, you got.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, I, I, I can outdo the US Military with the capabilities that I have. How awesome is that?

[Mike]

Jim, you going back to the guy that came on and threatened to expose. Yeah. You had Venezuela back that far. That was even further back. Yeah, he called. He came on to tell you were wrong about Venezuela.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Right.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, yeah, he, I, I was right about, I mean, I can't. Look, I want to say I was right. I was right. Other people. Yeah, yeah, we, we.

[Mike]

Yeah, right.

[Jimmy]

You know, but, yeah, and then, and then he stole it and acted like it was his own idea.

[Lewis]

We still got to make that clip, by the way, man.

[Mike]

Stole it. Yeah. Stolen valor.

[Lewis]

Yeah. No, he, he definitely utilized a bigger platform to kind of forget that he came on the show. Kind of like he didn't, he, like, he didn't laugh at it, but he was like, kind of like making like a mockery of like, no, that's not a thing. And Jimmy's like, yeah, it is. And then, like, what, a month later he was like, oh, my God. And then Jimmy was the one that told him it was gonna happen.

[Mike]

He didn't bring Jimmy up, huh?

[Lewis]

No, no, it didn't even bring anything up.

[Jimmy]

I mean, and again, that, that to me, just sort of highlights what the actual capability. I mean, like, look, just think about it. You guys know what goes on behind the scenes there. How many people do we have? How much money do we have? We're better than cnn.

[Lewis]

Yeah, Wyatt.

[Mike]

Just text me.

[Lewis]

Wyatt. Wyatt.

[Mike]

Ukraine.

[Lewis]

Oh, man.

[Jimmy]

He's alive.

[Mike]

He said he can. He said, yo, Mike, it's Wyatt. I'm out here training in the gulag. If you send a link, I can jump on. So maybe we'll get him in before the show ends.

[Lewis]

Okay, cool.

[Jimmy]

Hell yeah, dude. I still have Wyatt's number. Let me make sure that he still has mine.

[Lewis]

Let's go. Let's bring in canine. Let's hit up sports. The big one, obviously.

[Mike]

Both of them. Lewis, bring canine.

[Lewis]

Yep. Yeah.

[Canine]

What's up, og?

[Jimmy]

What's up, buddy?

[Lewis]

We can hear each other. So you're a closet NASCAR fan. Jimmy's an open NASCAR fan. We had the Daytona 500 yesterday.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, we did. I. I was first of all happy for MJ.

[Canine]

Yeah. 2311 racing. Yep.

[Jimmy]

Not happy. I mean, Justin Allgire was leading the race when he wrecked himself.

[Mike]

Me and Kane, I were watching together. It was. That last two laps was intense. I will say this. I'm gonna make you guys mad. The race is boring. As they all run next to each other. Nobody does anything. It's not like the old days. They just drove around from. We watched it from what, about 30 laps left. And they did the same thing for 28 laps. The pit stop and then the last two laps was absolutely insane. So it was exciting.

[Lewis]

You just gotta. I mean, NASCAR is a culture. I don't think the TV does it justice. Going to a race, it's cool. It's the loudest thing you'll ever hear. So what are some other highlights of the 500 that we, as non NASCAR fans didn't pick up?

[Jimmy]

Canine, you're up.

[Canine]

Well, about halfway through the race, There was a 20 car wreck. It took out a lot of the big name guys. So that. That kind of ruined the mojo for a lot of those guys. But going towards the end, in the last 30 laps, you've seen a lot of the Fords pitting together. You've seen a lot of the Chevys pitting together and a lot of the Toyotas pitting together. And I think that emphasized that these manufacturers actually usually work as a team. I don't think a lot of people realize that, that that's. A lot of these Toyota guys stick together. Chevy stick together, together. And so does Ford. Almost like just regular people. You have these people that claim Ford's the best, Chevy's the best, Toyota is the best. I actually personally put in a bet for Toyota. Win this race. I was big on Bubba Wallace going Into this race, he finished in the top 10. Toyota got the win, so I won some money. That was nice. And, you know, Toyota usually runs this race good. So it's. It's a speedway race. The Daytona 500, as Mike was saying, is usually pretty boring until you get to the end. And there's always a big wreck, the last 10 laps, sometimes two, and it usually goes into an overtime. They didn't pull the caution flag on the last lap on those big wrecks, which I was happy about.

[Lewis]

Yeah, I'll come in for the race finish.

[Mike]

Well, they did well with that. They let it go.

[Canine]

Yeah, that. I think that was big. And as Mike and I watched it live, I mean, it was a great finish. Tyler Reddick was able to pull out the win for 23:11. And Michael Jordan. Now everybody's talking about Michael Jordan right now for the wrong reasons. But he got a Daytona 500 win.

[Jimmy]

So one more Daytona than LeBron has.

[Mike]

I like that. I like that. Jimmy, that was a great statement. You're right, because MJ is the goat.

[Lewis]

Yeah. MJ's a golfer, a baseball player, basketball player. Now a NASCAR guy.

[Jimmy]

Well, he's from North Carolina. NASCAR's that. That's the spot. Ancestral home of NASCAR.

[Mike]

So I thought.

[Lewis]

I thought it was. I thought the Daytona was the home.

[Mike]

That's the home of the super bowl racing. But your roots of NASCAR are North Carolina.

[Lewis]

I thought it was on the short team, sir.

[Mike]

But your teams now are like out of North Wellsboro, Richmond, all those little tiny tracks in that. That area of North Carolina. So the culture.

[Canine]

Yeah, not only that, but a lot of their. A lot of the headquarters for these race teams are in North Carolina as well. So where they go to train, practice, learn how to drive on simulators. Most of that stuff is in North Carolina.

[Jimmy]

And. And a lot of people don't know this, like football players like D3 and D2 or even some D1 athletes that played football that are not going to get drafted or got drafted.

[Lewis]

Did.

[Jimmy]

Did a rookie season, got kicked off the practice squad. They end up going to be NASCAR pit crew crews. And they have schools out there.

[Lewis]

Just.

[Mike]

Yeah, they're units. Tire changers. Good cardio. Good, good. Wrong.

[Lewis]

Like, wow, that's a good job. Yeah, that's a good job. Yeah. Mike Fritz says last 20 laps only matter. Jordan spent last 18 months suing NASCAR, then wins yesterday. The irony.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

Well, you'd almost think it was state.

[Canine]

I disagree with that. Take honestly, big time, because as I said, halfway through the racer, it was a 20 car wreck. And a lot of the big name guys that we watch were taken out of the race. So I. I don't think that's. I mean, accurate at all.

[Jimmy]

I mean, Jimmy Johnson spun out. He was a lap down most of the race. Justin Allgire was leading the race when he wrecked himself. And he's racing for Junior Motorsports, you know, and that wreck took out a lot of people. Yeah, I honestly, like, I love Justin Allgire. That wreck was a whole. That was all his fault. Fault. He was trying to throw a block and did not realize how fast. Who was. Who was it coming up behind him? Oh, I can't remember, but he had another car come up behind him. Didn't realize how. How fast he had a run on him. Tried to throw a block and put himself right in the wall. It was all that was on Justin Allgaier 100.

[Mike]

There was a little bit of. There's a little rubbing in the pits afterwards. Right? Little rubbing is racing in the. You see the video? I don't know, the Michael Jordan video. Oh, there's a little Robin and racing afterwards.

[Lewis]

Okay, so after the. After the race, whoever won, their son was helping hold the trophy. And there's this weird, possibly out of context, controversial video Instagram. Lewis, I will say this. We are in a very heightened sense of alarm when it comes to the. The. All the Epstein stuff and protecting the kids and everything. That being said, it's in the dms. Lewis, go up, up, up. Right there.

[Mike]

Yeah. Pause it and then let it roll when it goes. Gotta go the other slide, Louis. It's.

[Lewis]

That's the still, but. Yeah, could be out of context. Could not be out of context. I. It's kind of split down the middle on the Internet.

[Mike]

It's a little arrow right there, Lewis. A little arrow right there. There we go.

[Jimmy]

Hey, guys, the camera battery's out again, even though I charged it, so.

[Canine]

All right.

[Lewis]

Can you see it? Can you see what we're watching?

[Jimmy]

Yeah, I can see it. Yeah, I've seen this, and it's all over the Internet right now.

[Mike]

What do we do? Doing. What are we doing?

[Lewis]

I. I don't know. I heard somebody say that maybe there was water on the kid and he was trying to get water off.

[Jimmy]

Dude, there's.

[Mike]

Oh, my God. Oh, man. When my wife's cooking, there must be a lot of water on her, too. I do that a lot when there's water on my wife.

[Jimmy]

I can't defend this. I can't.

[Canine]

I can't either. It's a. It's a really bad day for all of us that say MJ is the goat right now. It's a very bad day.

[Jimmy]

It really, really is, man.

[Mike]

Rubbing his racing, man.

[Jimmy]

I mean, that's a victory lane, too.

[Mike]

Oh, man. I don't know. I don't know.

[Lewis]

You just said rubbing.

[Mike]

It's right, man. That's what that. That's what they say. Little bump never hurt anybody, man.

[Lewis]

There's going to be more that comes out to this. Obviously. This just happened yesterday. Hit the. It hit the mainstre. Michael, you bring. Go ahead and bring down Jimmy. Then once his camera's back up, we can see him. We'll bring him back up. It hit the mainstream this morning. I know Heather said that they're going to break it down in her podcast on Unfiltered on Phase when there'll actually be a lot more info on it. I'm assuming Michael Jordan's team is going to make some kind of statement on the water that was on the little boys. Yeah.

[Mike]

We got some other news there. Canine, you want to break that NFL.

[Canine]

News about Tyree Kill?

[Mike]

Yes. Tyree Kill.

[Canine]

Yeah. Tyree Kill has been officially released from the Miami Dolphins. It seems like the Dolphins are, I guess, turning over a new leaf, and it looks like they're gonna tank. Try to tank this year. They have a new head coach. I think two is going to be out the door soon.

[Lewis]

Oh, they're gonna. Oh, they're gonna. The next season.

[Mike]

Well, I mean, he released the. What? He's not a really good guy. Right. I mean, he's got some.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Criminal past.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Mike]

He fights the cops, fights his wife. Like he's got some stuff.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Mike]

He's one of those guys that just. Amazing talent. But he just brings so much baggage with him. What?

[Lewis]

It's true. That's me. Yeah. That I'm. The. Being ripped out of car by my ampd was not good. That was. That was. That was a thing. Yeah.

[Mike]

And you made a poster about it.

[Lewis]

I did. I made my son a poster about it. Then I made a reel when it went viral as hell. People recognize me more from that reel than they do from this box.

[Mike]

There's a good one. If he just took his hands out of his pockets and stood there, he would have been fine. Right. If he would have listened.

[Lewis]

I. I just.

[Mike]

I don't feed him to work in his fancy. Was a Corvette. Whatever he's driving.

[Lewis]

Does he have other issues that people that. That just kind of like, brought it all and they were like, dude, he's too much Baggage or was it like a performance style? Was it like baggage or was it performance?

[Canine]

I think a lot of it was baggage, honestly.

[Lewis]

Really.

[Canine]

There was a lot of reports about him and Tua beefing who for people that don't know. Two is the starting quarterbacker was of the Miami Dolphins. They had a lot of beef going into training camp. They were honestly arguing two reporters back and forth. So it wasn't the best chemistry fit either. I mean, obviously, the guy I think is one of the best wide receivers I've ever seen in my lifetime. Speed wise, just all around great receiver. He has a ring with the Chiefs and then obviously the offside, the outside the field baggage of, you know, getting arrested on the way to the game, all the baby mamas, all the kids speaking out about things and just you.

[Lewis]

Can take the player out of the community, but you cannot take the community out of the player.

[Mike]

I think it speaks volumes for a team like the Chiefs to have such a good team and go, we're gonna trade this guy. Guy like the best receiver in football. Arguably the best receiver in football. When he got traded, I thought it.

[Lewis]

Was because can I was biased, really.

[Mike]

Top, you know, and he was in the top five then an easy top five receiver. When he got traded from Kansas City, he was in his prime at that point.

[Lewis]

And he gets ready to get picked up by somebody else.

[Mike]

I don't know somebody else. It was kind of like Beckham getting traded. You know, in the middle of all that, Beckham goes with the stupid boat trip and then all the drama. And the Giants traded Odell Beckham in the. In the height of his career. That's kind of what happened to it. Tyree killing. It seems like they never really come back from that. Like it. Somebody sees something and goes, that's the end of this guy and somebody will pick him up.

[Canine]

Well, I will say this, that he was. He wasn't traded. He was actually not resigned.

[Mike]

Okay?

[Canine]

They. They won the super bowl and, you know, they obviously had the best quarterback in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes. So, you know, since football has a salary cap, they didn't want to pay Tyree Kill top of the line money like he was wanting because they have Patrick Mahomes and they go, hey, we can get some B grade receivers and we'll be good enough. Instead of having that a grade receiver.

[Mike]

He needs a Bill Belichick type coach. Look what Bill Belichick did to Randy Moss. Randy Moss had some trouble off the field and all that, but he goes into New England to a absolute professional Non game playing coach and has great resurrects his career. He needs somebody who looks at him and says, shut up. You're here 10 minutes early every day. You shut your mouth. You watch video. You are a generational talent. Get back to if he doesn't get on that type of team with that type of coach, it's gonna be the same garbage over and over. Yeah, I'll be honest with you and I'm biased, but somebody like the new Giants coach Harbaugh would be somebody that would be no nonsense to say, hey, we're gonna bring you in, we're gonna take a chance, but you're not going to make me look stupid. And that's what Bill Chuck does for like Randy Moss and those guys. You're not gonna look stupid on this team. You're going to come play football. And he needs a coach like that.

[Lewis]

I'm sorry we didn't get to it. Jeffrey Newby said MJ's dad was the command sergeant major in the army at Bragg before being killed. I was at Bragg around that time. I did not know that MJ's dad was in the army.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Lewis]

And Pride Assassin said who's down to sponsor antihero to race in 24 hours of lemons?

[Mike]

Le Mans. I think it's what he means.

[Lewis]

What's that?

[Mike]

There's a race. 24 hour Le Mons is like one of those 24 hour races where I.

[Lewis]

Thought that was a Rolex something.

[Mike]

No, there's a bunch of them.

[Lewis]

Different ones that I thought it was like.

[Mike]

There's one in Florida. Sebring. Well, Sebring does 12 hours.

[Lewis]

I want to know what we need to do. We need to enter one of those destruction derbies.

[Mike]

I was actually going to be in one covet year. Covid year. I got approached by. There's a. We have a fair every year in March and they do a demolition derby and FH is going to be one trooper, one cop, one fireman and one deputy. And I got selected as the deputy and then covet came. It would have been great because I was mid tick tock at that point. My tick tock was blown up and I would have been in a demolition derby and you'd have so much more material. But they canceled it.

[Lewis]

Hey, Jimmy's back. If you want to bring back up Jimmy, dude, you've been downgraded to the right side of the screen.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, dude, I don't know what's going on with this camera but like even when I stick it on the fast charger, maybe it's the fast charger that's doing it, but, like, it'll. It tells me that it's full when I plug it in, and then it's, like, dying. I don't know what's going on.

[Lewis]

All right, bring it back here, and we'll see if we can't swap it out for a new one.

[Mike]

Did it really bother you, Lewis, that.

[Lewis]

K9 wasn't on the right, to be honest.

[Canine]

Right?

[Lewis]

It did.

[Mike]

Did it bother you? Did it? No. No, it didn't.

[Lewis]

Oh, okay. I just cracked it.

[Mike]

I would. I. Our guest here is getting to see a Firsthand, you know, we're not crazy, right? You see? You see what we're dealing with now? He's getting to see it firsthand.

[Lewis]

I corrected it.

[Mike]

Yeah. He got to see the whole. Oh, he didn't get. He missed the beginning. It.

[Lewis]

What?

[Mike]

When I came in and.

[Lewis]

Oh, Lewis is the smartest person I know. And then sometimes.

[Mike]

And then. And then he is the smartest person I know. He just needs to be pushed a little bit to get the day going. What's the day? He comes in and he's like, hello.

[Lewis]

Sometimes.

[Mike]

Listen, check this out. He goes, hello. And I'm like, yeah. And he goes, I just wanted you to know I was here. I didn't want you to think it was a robber. That's how. That's how my day started with Lewis. I said, we appreciate. I said, louis, I don't think anybody. This is a really bad part of town. You never know what could happen around here. I was like, all right, man. Thanks for letting me know. That's how my day started, dude.

[Jimmy]

You know. Hey, Mike Fritz. He has actually a pretty good point. Cletus McFarland has a track in Tampa. We could probably.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

Who does he sound like? Yeah, he's racing. He's racing truck series, Crashing trucks.

[Mike]

Really?

[Jimmy]

Right now?

[Mike]

Would he let us drive on it?

[Jimmy]

I don't know. I. I think he'd be down with it, man. He started out as a YouTuber, too.

[Lewis]

Yeah, we'll tell him, man. Hey, we'll come and shoot a special at your track.

[Mike]

I just want to stand next to a guy named Cletus McFarland. Cletus.

[Lewis]

I'll drive.

[Mike]

I need a speed track so I can show my wife I'm a faster driver than her. I need a place like, oh, see your wife.

[Canine]

I saw you drive away yesterday.

[Lewis]

Can I.

[Mike]

Can I.

[Lewis]

Can you vouch for me that it is JoJo that drives and he writes?

[Mike]

Any idea? He doesn't know he saw me.

[Lewis]

Well, yesterday.

[Canine]

I seen my driving.

[Mike]

Yesterday.

[Jimmy]

I can at least vouch for one thing. When we were coming out of the gym the other day, I went. We went to the. The car, and Mike tried to get into the passenger side.

[Mike]

I'm like, right? I did.

[Lewis]

I did.

[Mike]

I said it. I said, damn it, dude. I'm so used to. I did. I cut in front of Jimmy to get. He's like, what are you doing? I'm like, damn, dude. I'm not used to driving. I'm like, let me get in the. I had to go to the driver's seat. I'm not used to. I don't mind. I don't.

[Lewis]

What would happen if you guys were. If you and JoJo were walking to the car and you said, I'm driving. Driving. I get his ass beat.

[Mike]

Care. Nope. She wouldn't care. But I know the smoke that comes with it.

[Lewis]

So every little micro turn you take wrong.

[Mike]

Yep. It's just easier to get the passer seat. Happy wife, happy life. Yeah. Happy wife.

[Jimmy]

I. I cannot not drive like I'm a better. I'm a way better driver.

[Mike]

What my boss used to say was, big cases, big problems. Little cases, little problems, no cases, no problem problems. So take that how you want. No cases, no problems.

[Lewis]

As far as sports go, is there anything else coming up this week? Football's done, so I don't really know what the. To talk about.

[Mike]

Basketball, you got hockey. You got Olympics.

[Jimmy]

Hockey is gonna start ramping up. Hockey. Hockey's gonna start ramping up. We got playoffs that start in about two. Playoffs.

[Mike]

One of the best.

[Jimmy]

Who's talking about playoffs?

[Mike]

Yeah, it was amazing.

[Canine]

Shout out, Herm. Big Herm.

[Mike]

We got a coach that went bananas about his team not making the playoffs.

[Canine]

Yeah, Herm Edwards.

[Mike]

No.

[Lewis]

Yeah, Herm Edwards.

[Mike]

No, that was Dick Vermeer. Oh, hey.

[Lewis]

Did you see it? Herm Edwards, the black dude, the coach of the Jets.

[Jimmy]

No, it wasn't. It was a white dude.

[Mike]

It was wrong. Can you help him? That was your version of your young generation. The redo. That was the reason.

[Lewis]

That's the redo. You're right. You're right, you're right. You're right.

[Mike]

In Indianapolis.

[Lewis]

Yes. Herman Edwards redid it.

[Jimmy]

That's Jim Mora. It was Jim. Jim Mora that said it.

[Canine]

You're right.

[Lewis]

You're right.

[Mike]

He's definitely not black.

[Jimmy]

So what's going on with. There was something. There was some Twitter beef or something going on with one of the NBA coaches. Doc. Doc Rivers. What's going on with Doc Rivers?

[Mike]

I didn't see it.

[Canine]

The Twitter beef I seen was about Kevin Durant using a burner account. Again, this is. I don't know how many times he's done that.

[Lewis]

Just trolling people.

[Mike]

Yeah, he's done it all the time.

[Lewis]

Yeah, he got caught again.

[Mike]

Crazy, though.

[Canine]

Yeah. He got caught again recently arguing with people on a burner account on Twitter. I. I just don't know if Kevin Durant can stop doing it, man.

[Lewis]

He just does it for the love of the game.

[Mike]

The love of the game. I like when they zoom in on his ankles or his calves and they're ashy as. And everybody goes, everybody knows who this is picture without even talking about it.

[Lewis]

Like, he's.

[Mike]

That his hair is just a disaster for a millionaire NBA player. He, like, doesn't keep himself up.

[Lewis]

Well, he smokes weed.

[Canine]

He smokes. Hello, Weed. He's probably one of the most famous.

[Mike]

What's his name? His Twitter.

[Canine]

Did you say.

[Mike]

What's his, like, Twitter feed? Something Money Sniper or something?

[Canine]

Yeah, Money Sniper. Yeah.

[Lewis]

Yeah. All right, well, we'll wrap up the sports segment Canine tonight. Counterculture Inc. Sports on the Counterculture Network, 7:00pm Eastern Standard Time. I'm sure you'll be talking more about the race and what we talked about now. Just branched out a little bit.

[Canine]

Yes, sir.

[Lewis]

All right, we'll see you next time.

[Jimmy]

So, yeah, really, really quiet week out there. Everybody that I know in the YouTube space that normally does, like, current events and around the world, like, they're grasping at straws, man. It's slow.

[Lewis]

Slow, slow, slow. I remember you talking about it. What was it, Thursday or Friday? You're like, dude, there's Friday or Thursday.

[Jimmy]

And Friday. I'm just like.

[Lewis]

Which usually is an indicator that something big is going to happen.

[Jimmy]

Well, I think the, the, the, you know, the, the female major that, that video that I showed, like, you know, I, I did a breakdown of every. Of all of the combat power that was in theater a few weeks ago because everybody was like, trump's gonna strike Iran within 72 hours. I'm like, no, he's not.

[Lewis]

Yeah, no, you're not. Good. That's open source. Right? Right.

[Jimmy]

And so, like, what. But I mean, you think about that. What that does is, is like, people in Iran can go, yeah, they're probably not going to do anything. And the US Military, no matter how hard they try, you cannot move aircraft carriers or Marine amphibious readiness groups or squadrons of airplanes or Brigades from 82nd Airborne without everybody knowing about it. Like, we're gonna know. So, I mean, and Then it just becomes, okay, well, let's paint the picture. And what are the. What are the objectives?

[Lewis]

We're not.

[Jimmy]

I mean, if. If Trump really wanted to right now, could he bomb some. Sure.

[Mike]

Trying to avoid the bombs coming from that Epstein list.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, Start covering the old kidnapping lady, dude. Yeah, I mean Clint's absolutely right. Like they're talking about some lady that got kidnapped, right.

[Mike]

Nobody she's important.

[Jimmy]

Cares.

[Mike]

I mean, it'll be on a documentary.

[Jimmy]

Full on email chain between Jeffrey Epstein and Bill. Bill Gates talking about how they were going to create a. A pandemic as a. To see how it was gonna work.

[Lewis]

Oh, yeah, that's crazy, dude.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, I mean it's. It is crazy. So, I mean, like I have the email right here. All right, so this is between Jeff. Jeffrey Epstein and Bill. Hey, Bill. Larry and I have been working on deliverable sensors my time at BGC3 since you and I spoke at Larry's request. I've spoken with Roger, Mark, Chris Trevor and a few other of the bosses. Everyone has offered guidance and I'll skip through it, but he talks about a lot of things and he goes follow up recommendations and. Or technical specifications for strain pandemic simulation. I'm happy to do whatever else is helpful or we can adapt along the way. Thanks again for the opportunity. Hope this weekend is off to a good start for you.

[Lewis]

If that. If that doesn't tell you anything that you need to know that the COVID virus was made up and they found it out in the Epstein files that.

[Mike]

Like a. I have a question. Two people went to prison, right? Giselle Maxwell went to prison, right? Where are the people? Where the victims. Where's all the people? Where's all the other stuff they won't talk about? They went to prison for a very long time. One killed himself in prison and one is still there. Where are they at?

[Lewis]

You talking about physically?

[Mike]

Oh, that. And why aren't we talking about it? That list. I saw a video today. I can't vet it, so I'm not gonna play it. Talking about some of the wild, wild stuff about infants being starved. The stuff we talked about before and. And I haven't seen that yet. Obviously there's no words out there yet to confirm any of that wild, bizarre stuff. But where are the people where we got all these speculate. All these celebrities, all these people. It's just disappeared. It's gone. There's millions and millions of dollars. There's supposedly millions more. I don't understand why we aren't like. Like that's Something to get pretty wild about as a nation to get behind and get like.

[Lewis]

Well, I heard Tessa said that off. About Heather's C.O. said that the. The turkey. The turkey image with the kid was actually. It's art up and sick art. But it's not real. And it. They're already. The people are already trying to throw it in there as. That's an image from the Epstein files. But apparently, according to their podcast that it is. It. It is. It is an actual piece of art that's really up. But it's not a real image of a child. A dead children.

[Jimmy]

But. But you know what are real images? The ones of. Of kids with their hands taped down or a little girl ball gagged. And I mean, like, all of that. That was real.

[Mike]

Yeah. Where are they at? Where's the. Where's the ev. All that evidence they have that all that evidence is in somebody's possession. It's in the government's possession. They have it to take down all these people. And we're being fed millions of emails that have like, a little bit of this and blocked out of that speculation.

[Lewis]

Here lying dormant on MySpace.

[Mike]

Yeah, it's all there somewhere. Yeah.

[Lewis]

We can't access.

[Mike]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's. We're being. I don't care what side of this blue or red you're on, we're being lied to by all of them. Yeah, it's all there. It's all there, dude.

[Jimmy]

And. And, you know, we're the victims, dude. I mean, we're.

[Lewis]

We're.

[Jimmy]

The people in charge of our country are literally child molesting pedophile rapists and human traffickers.

[Canine]

And.

[Jimmy]

And these are the people that are going to decide whether or not we go to war. Oh, yeah, we got one more cool thing. The United States said that we want Germany to be in charge of NATO now.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Canine]

The.

[Jimmy]

The pedophile people want us to put Germany in charge.

[Lewis]

What did you say?

[Mike]

Bring one. Read that super chat. And bring water.

[Lewis]

Okay. Yeah. Jay Saner says good morning. Five English. Five English pounds for the gentleman. P s. Join the Discord in the Discord.

[Mike]

And we have a guest that hasn't been here in a while. We'll do the Discord update after this. Bring in Wyatt. Wyatt is alive and well. There he is.

[Lewis]

He's alive.

[Mike]

Ukrainian on the ground is here. You can throw Jimmy under the bus if you want. Wyatt.

[Wyatt]

I. I do that just recreationally, but he deserves every bit of it.

[Lewis]

But yeah.

[Wyatt]

Again, sorry, guys. I. I knew I would have limited phone access out at a training environment. I didn't know my phone would be seized entirely. So I missed all your episodes. I'm trying to catch up now. Still trying to catch up. Even on news here. But do you, Jimmy, I've been telling people all the euros here. I mean, I'm joking but not exaggerating when I say or. Sorry. I'm exaggerating but not joking when I say our government is run by blood drinking pedophiles. It's true. And to all you boys out there, this one's for you. I've been one for you guys.

[Mike]

What is. What's. What's. What's the update? You were. What. What's the training? I mean, you don't tell us exactly, but how long were you there and how long was your phone seized?

[Wyatt]

It was seized for most of the time, but if we were good boys, we would get it for like five minutes a week. Just to tell your family you're not dead. No, I switched. Well, I switched. Service unit, Service branch. Why did they take it? Well, why did they? Well, security people want to do selfies. Geolocation 20, 25, a lot of training bases got swacked like bad. A couple colonels were going to prison for it. Productivity. People work harder when they can't, you know, sneak a phone in their pocket and start scrolling. And you're also less likely to go AWOL and run away if you don't have your phone.

[Lewis]

That's true.

[Mike]

It's true.

[Lewis]

Wait, so they count it awol? If a. If a contracted fighter like yourself just leaves, that's considered awol?

[Jimmy]

Yeah.

[Lewis]

You're a contracted soldier, but contracted, not enlisted.

[Wyatt]

Okay, difference in terminology. Yes, enlisted, full on soldier. We say contracted meaning you're not. You weren't drafted. You'll also hear them say volunteer soldier because the US doesn't have a draft. We don't have that difference in terms, but no, contracted as in a contract with the military. I am a soldier under law a123ABC. So yeah, full on soldier.

[Lewis]

Okay.

[Wyatt]

Contracting as. As you and I would know is actually illegal here.

[Lewis]

Oh, like mercenary work?

[Wyatt]

Yeah. There are anti mercenary laws written in as soon as the Soviet Union collapsed because Ukraine didn't want that. But there have been some interesting updates this past week or so. Russia banned telegram and it turns out the Russian military uses that for their coordination because it's. It's free, it's effective, it's easy to use. I love it. I don't use it for stuff. And Elon Musk also set up a verification process for Starlink which excludes Russians. So they've lost 95% of their Starlink networks. Their drone teams are stranded. Their gray zone operators can't communicate without using radio signals. They are getting swacked right now. Zaporizhzha especially. They're trying to build 4G bridges to keep their drones going. But I know an anti tank unit that was just reassigned to find signals and kill everything. Just kill all the signals. So that has been interesting this past week.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Lewis]

Well, I'm glad you're doing okay, Wyatt. We kind of get worried about you from time to time, but knowing that they took your phone, it kind of makes sense.

[Wyatt]

Yeah, I lost 20 pounds and I have some nerve damage from it, but meniscus repair surgery is very cheap in this country.

[Lewis]

Oh, man, that's fun.

[Mike]

I had that once.

[Lewis]

Meniscus repaired in a war zone.

[Mike]

What's the. What's the anesthesia like? Vodka.

[Wyatt]

The Soviet Union was very big in educating, you know. We want the best doctors, best engineers, best scientists. Didn't really work out with the engineers, but there's a lot of high quality doctors here. Medical tourism is a legit thing. People coming in from around the world to get cheap and good medical operations.

[Lewis]

Did not know that.

[Mike]

Stay home. That scares me too much. Now what?

[Wyatt]

Once you get like 30 minutes from the front, you're good, you're safe. Before I forget. Tyler, pen and paper. I told Jimmy, but he has hearing damage down the names and blood types of your. All your crew members, all the people you like. I'm gonna have some Cyrillic name tapes made up for you guys because I owe you a box of patches. You busy?

[Lewis]

Okay. Hell yeah. Thank you so much, man. Are you ever coming back to the States? Doubt, really. You're just never gonna come home.

[Wyatt]

Well, what am I gonna do? Suck dick under a bridge?

[Mike]

Go back?

[Canine]

Go, go.

[Wyatt]

Start flipping burgers at McDonald's I don't have in the US.

[Mike]

What do you do with the money?

[Wyatt]

Aircraft engineer in the U.S. okay.

[Mike]

That's a wild bridge.

[Jimmy]

That took a wild turn, man.

[Mike]

I mean, not. That's not paying great, but you can.

[Lewis]

I've seen people end up taking a vacation back home. Stop by the studio.

[Mike]

Yeah. We won't put you under a bridge. You can stop by. We'll buy you dinner and everything.

[Jimmy]

I might become sheriff.

[Canine]

You could.

[Jimmy]

You go to work for him?

[Mike]

No, Never.

[Wyatt]

I'm living better than Lewis. I get paid more and I get beaten less.

[Mike]

We appreciate it.

[Lewis]

Why, man?

[Mike]

Thank you so Much. We're happy to see you're safe, man.

[Lewis]

Thank you.

[Wyatt]

For you guys. Let me know.

[Mike]

Thank you.

[Wyatt]

So I couldn't talk trash about his precious blood angels.

[Lewis]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

Okay. Okay. We're gonna. We're gonna talk. We're gonna. We're gonna have some conversations. We're gonna do some warhammer stuff. It's been asked enough times. It's gotta happen. Sure.

[Mike]

All right. We appreciate it, guys.

[Lewis]

Thanks, guys.

[Mike]

All right, take.

[Canine]

Yeah.

[Jimmy]

So the camera. The camera's dead again. Yeah, I'm charging it, but the camera's dead.

[Mike]

All right, Jimmy, we appreciate you, man.

[Lewis]

Hey, what's the Discord? I mean, we can't see you.

[Jimmy]

Jay, the guy that gave us the. The British money, he was the one that put a lot of work in, especially those. Those quick videos. If you go up to the Discord, I mean, I would recommend you share screen instead of having my little gray icon.

[Lewis]

We can't Not. We won't be able to hear you.

[Jimmy]

Okay, but you can go. You can definitely go look at the. At the discord. It looks amazing. It's very popular, professionally done. Jay was one of the ones we.

[Lewis]

Haven'T logged on yet. You want to wait until maybe like Tuesday or something? Yeah, you have to put in all the login stuff.

[Mike]

This.

[Lewis]

None of these computers.

[Jimmy]

I can do it from mine. I can just share my screen, actually, if you want.

[Lewis]

Let's just do it tomorrow for Patreon.

[Mike]

Tuesday, and then we'll put it out for. To everybody. On Thursday. We'll do a Patreon to most of. For those that don't know we have a Patreon.

[Lewis]

Yeah, Mike forgot to mention that.

[Mike]

Mike forgot to mention that piece of paper.

[Lewis]

Mike's got one thing right here.

[Mike]

Where's it say Patreon? Show it to me.

[Lewis]

Look.

[Mike]

P. Oh, yeah, it is there. Oh, you mean the guy that answers everybody that, you know, whenever a new member comes in and posts the most in there. Yes. Don't forget Patreon. Tomorrow's Patreon Tuesday. We'll show the Discord tomorrow for the first time, and then we'll. We'll bring it out to everybody else on Thursday, so. All right, Jimmy. We appreciate you, man.

[Lewis]

All right, guys, coming out. What are you redoing?

[Jimmy]

Channel cast drops tomorrow. I gotta shoot it again because it. It for some reason it recorded in potato.

[Lewis]

It did it recorded in potato. He's got to redo the whole thing. But that's Jimmy's work and dedication. He's going to get it out. Get it to me. About it'll be out on time.

[Mike]

Yeah, I'm gonna.

[Jimmy]

I'm gonna charge this thing again. Luckily, I already did it once, so I can do it again. It's just not going to be as in cool in the cool studio video, so.

[Lewis]

All right.

[Jimmy]

But we'll take it from there.

[Lewis]

All right, brother.

[Jimmy]

All right. Later on, guys.

[Lewis]

Later. All right, so on to the probably. Maybe the last thing is the. What county is it?

[Mike]

What county is what?

[Lewis]

This Sheriff Sanders.

[Mike]

Oh, Sheriff Sanders is Thurston County. Let me get him up. You want to pull up, I'll send you the profile.

[Lewis]

Well, I got it in. In Instagram. The video. The big video. Okay.

[Mike]

All right. Go to the Instagram. Let's play this video. And then we're gonna. This is a. This is gonna be a good guest. You could have done that before you loaded the Instagram on the screen, Littles. But you know that one right there?

[Lewis]

No, above. Nope, nope. Right there. What are you doing?

[Mike]

Real quick, Real quick. So this video went viral and there's a. Karen comes up to a guy. I believe he's working a crash course.

[Lewis]

Yeah. It's working across person in elementary school.

[Mike]

And this lady comes up. Up and harasses him. And then we'll take it from there. Go ahead.

[Lewis]

What am I doing here? Why are you here?

[Mike]

I was just doing a collision report, ma'.

[Lewis]

Am.

[Mike]

Okay, okay. Are you guys gonna be here much.

[Lewis]

Longer until I'm done doing my.

[Mike]

My job?

[Lewis]

Because one of the teachers when I dropped off over there said y' all been circling since about 8. Okay, well, I'm just doing my job, so the quicker. Your job at the elevator. Elementary school since about 8am I wasn't here. There was a collision here at the elementary school. You have a good day.

[Jimmy]

I'm gonna continue to do my job.

[Lewis]

You work for us and you're scaring these families. You should probably go do your job where your job lives because I don't see that it needs to be right here all morning.

[Jimmy]

I'm gonna explain something.

[Mike]

The person that I was just working with.

[Lewis]

I'm doing my job. Can you them all there? Can you maybe like for a second acknowledge that you could be a really upsetting site for people right now? I get it. But like, for us to be able to collaborate with you all at all going forward, you're gonna have to show us some humanity. You're gonna have to show us us that you understand the circumstances and the feelings that you evoke. Because, like, it would be so rad to feel like you're here for us. It would be so rad to feel like you guys get it and understand that you are actually the defending line between us and the fascism. But until, like, that's overt, guys trying to. Until that's overt that you're part of our community, then I don't think you should be lingering.

[Jimmy]

Absolutely.

[Mike]

All due respect, I'm not going to continue to go back and forth. I'm going to try to finish my.

[Lewis]

Job as fast as possible.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

Keep in mind that you are cussing. We are in front of a school, so please just.

[Lewis]

That is fair.

[Jimmy]

Okay.

[Lewis]

I'll give you that. That's fair.

[Canine]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

So the quicker I get this done, I can leave.

[Lewis]

Okay.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, I'm not really, really not trying.

[Lewis]

To be thinking about these kids. Look, I get it, ma'.

[Mike]

Am.

[Lewis]

You know what moms are going through right now, right?

[Mike]

I do understand that.

[Jimmy]

I'll get this out of the way.

[Mike]

And I'll be out of everyone's house.

[Lewis]

I sure would appreciate that.

[Mike]

Yep. You have a good rest of your day. Just pause that.

[Lewis]

Louis, what are you doing?

[Mike]

In the profile, click where it says Sheriff Sanders. The high. The link. Right.

[Lewis]

Oh, before that, before that, before that. Go to the next reels with his response.

[Mike]

Okay, good.

[Lewis]

And then we'll do it. So go to the. Not that actually go up. Watch that one. This is her.

[Mike]

I wouldn't give her.

[Lewis]

Oh, no, no. Yeah, this is the. Can you read that? Make that big. This is Sheriff Sanders reply on. On the Instagram.

[Mike]

I can't read it.

[Lewis]

All right.

[Mike]

All right.

[Lewis]

Thank you for recording your encounter with our deputy yesterday.

[Mike]

As a result of his professionalism when dealing with you, we'll be issuing him a commendation for his employee file. We encourage our deputies to spend time at our elementary schools and the staff.

[Lewis]

And kids absolutely love being around our.

[Mike]

Deputies and school resource officers. Thanks again. Love. Beautiful. So then go back to the profile and click on Sheriff Sanders profile. Go there. Click that. So this. Go up. This is Sheriff Derek Sanders. Scroll down so you can see his profile. So we see his profile up there at the top. There you go. Sheriff Sanders. If you guys want to follow him. Thurston County Sheriff. He will be live on the antihero Wednesday Friends Day. This Wednesday we're gonna have him on. He's got some interesting takes on some other things. He did post about the. The Renee Good shooting. We're going to talk to him about that. What his stance was on that. But in this case, if you scroll down, he reposted the video Down, I believe. Down, down, down. Right there in the middle. That it got huge. And his. You want to. His statement. If you want to read that, Lewis. Yesterday a video was taken of one of our deputies at Seven Oaks Elementary School. The video has since gone viral and a number of you sent it to me. After finishing up a collision near the collision. Oh, no school. Deputy Domino was in his car in the school parking lot typing up a.

[Lewis]

Collision report for the involved parties.

[Mike]

An individual in our community approached deputy while recording him and began questioning why he was there. Telling deputy he was scaring families that he is not part of our community and that he shouldn't be lingering around near our local schools. That's good. So that he basically came out and said, you know, blah, blah, blah. And he stood up for his deputy, which I appreciated. Some people. You can bring that one down, Louis. We're good with it. Some people have contacted me and we're gonna get it straight from his mouth that always in an election year. And there were some other incidents with some people, but on the. There's some other things we're going to talk about. I think he wants to do like a community, like oversight board. I don't know. I'm a fan of that, but he was gracious enough to say, yeah, come on. We'll talk about the incident and talk about everything involved. I'm gonna attempt to get the deputy on as well. I don't know if he's gonna let him come on or if he wants to. I don't ever advocate for anybody. Have to be on camera that doesn't want to. But I think it's a good. Good guest to have on and see what his. See what his mindset is.

[Lewis]

Awesome, dude. Yeah. I mean it.

[Mike]

And I gotta thank my wife. I'll be honest. I have talked to this guy before. I kind of get in that position where guys aren't gonna answer. I don't bother message him. She's like, oh, you're too lazy to message them. Just do it. But being funny. But she was. She's like, message him. See what he says. And sure enough, he reached right back out. We talked for five minutes and. Yeah, 28.

[Lewis]

28.

[Mike]

And I want to let you. I have his bio. We'll put the bio in the link, but I'll give you the background if you want. Kind of. I'll give you an idea of who he is. Sheriff Sanders served the citizen of Thurston county as a deputy for six years before securing an election win against the incumbent to become Thurston's they must have.

[Lewis]

Been super up if they elect that. A 28 year old.

[Mike]

Yeah. During his tenure deputy, he engaged in community service events. Was awarded the medal of valor for two life saving awards. Established a top performer in proactive policing efforts. As sheriff, Sanders has worked with the voters to increase the staffing by 31. Led historic crime rate reduction efforts in 2024. So that's kind of his background. I believe that the sheriff he unseated was like a two or three term incumbent too.

[Lewis]

Really?

[Mike]

And he worked there, so he walked in and got rid of him.

[Lewis]

That's unheard. I want to hear about that story.

[Mike]

Yeah. So we're going to talk about that Wednesday, so make sure you guys turn in to tune into Wednesday Friends Day with Sheriff Derek Sanders.

[Lewis]

I'll make a cool little trailer with it for that.

[Mike]

Yeah, I mean it's kind of. I mean, Hot Topic hot video. And the anti hero broadcast is bringing it to you live on Wednesday.

[Lewis]

Yeah, well, I have one more video and it's just got a cool video shedding some light. I mean, obviously we criticize. You know, people call us boot lickers, but you know, we do criticize admin and, and we do Monday morning quarterback things. But I want to highlight right there, that Volusia video right there. Just, just cool video. Dude. Cop goes to a fire. Call boots the door. Saved a human and that's it. Mike saved a dog, but this guy saved a human.

[Mike]

1 Charlie 22 Central confirmed structure fire. I don't see that anybody's out of the house. Sheriff's office. I'm going inside.

[Lewis]

Sheriff's office.

[Mike]

Your house is on fire.

[Lewis]

The things you gotta say now before you kick in a door.

[Mike]

Right, right.

[Lewis]

Sheriff's office.

[Mike]

What's your name, tool? Dennis's pool.

[Lewis]

What?

[Mike]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Armor breath. That's the only thing you ask is good for.

[Lewis]

Okay, that is waking up bums.

[Mike]

Sheriff's office. If you're in here, announce yourself.

[Lewis]

I'm on fire. It's out of here.

[Mike]

I'm getting no response from inside. Of the door.

[Lewis]

Yeah. Sheriff's office.

[Mike]

I got someone on the ground.

[Lewis]

That burns, dude. Burns your eyes low. There we go.

[Mike]

No call. Give me the G watch.

[Lewis]

Did he drag her out?

[Mike]

Come on now. That's awesome. I got you. Great work. All jokes aside. Come on, Breathe. Come on now. I got you. Help me.

[Lewis]

All right, you can stop it.

[Mike]

Let's hear it for the first responders.

[Lewis]

Showing up and doing some courageous ass. That is wild. I know for a fact that burned he probably burned his eyes burned.

[Mike]

Firemen were mad as.

[Lewis]

Oh yeah, they were probably like, oh, you, you. We would have done it this way. Like, yeah, got here first maybe.

[Mike]

That's excellent work. Honestly, that is, that is. Anybody who's ever had been in a fire call and had to breathe that, it's horrible. Your body says, get the away, don't go in. Your mind tells you not to go in. And he did anyway. That's excellent police work.

[Lewis]

It is. And it's, and it's all, it's more about fighting crime. It's more about, you know, that cop could have easily waited for fire. And I didn't hear any sirens in that video, did you?

[Mike]

No.

[Lewis]

I don't know if they were close or not. So therefore that person might have sat there for another four minutes and sucked in all that carbon monoxide and probably died.

[Mike]

Or the house burns up and they're dead anyway, so you gotta go in.

[Lewis]

I'm not saying that the fire services would not have gotten that person and they would have lived, but had that cop not been there, that would have been an option. And that cop did not have to do that.

[Mike]

Well, that just, I mean, obviously, all jokes aside, firemen are at the station. They're there waiting. These guys are on patrol. You're gonna always beat the firemen. The crash calls. You're always going to beat the, the firemen to fire calls. You're going to be the first one there. And you got to make that decision. I mean, he goes in and becomes, you know, he gets incapacitated. Now you got two, two victims. So that is a tough decision. That's a tough call. Firefighters would be the real heroes saving two people. Yeah, so that's, that's excellent, excellent police work, excellent job. And you know, that's what it's all about.

[Lewis]

And if you're a cop and you get trapped in a house, don't let the fire or rescue save you because we'll never live.

[Jimmy]

Drag it out, Drag your stuff out.

[Lewis]

Just, or, or just eat it and.

[Mike]

Just run into the fire. Dude, we took a nice moment. You still couldn't be nice. I was gonna be nice the rest of the show. I made my jabs. I was gonna, I was gonna send it out. Very nice.

[Lewis]

And they. Firefighters, we give a. They beat us in everything.

[Mike]

I got a great firefighter video.

[Lewis]

Oh, you do?

[Mike]

Yeah. Lewis, go to the, go to the anti hero DMS from co. No, you're good, you're good. Top one, bottom one, you send some wild right there. Go. Speaking of Fireman. Here's a fire academy. Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. Y' all sure look pretty this morning.

[Wyatt]

All your faces all shaved and stuff.

[Mike]

Look at you. My name is Captain Juliet Drake. Paper. We ready. Pick up your stuff. Everybody get their little bags. This ain't men's warehouse.

[Lewis]

Hurry up.

[Mike]

This ain't pressure yet. Wait till the pressure.

[Lewis]

Really?

[Mike]

Come on.

[Jimmy]

Chop, chop.

[Mike]

Chippity chop, chop. You can still smile while you're hustling.

[Lewis]

I do.

[Mike]

Tuck your shirt in, hero. We have dignitaries coming to the classroom. We want to address them. It's gonna be your job, sir, to see who's coming in the door and let everybody know. Like, I'm gonna start with my shiny shoes. Keep looking at them because they are the shots. Box. I'm not gonna dance with you, sir.

[Lewis]

You. You. Wait. You took too long.

[Mike]

That brings a tear to my eye.

[Lewis]

I don't know already, man.

[Mike]

We are now one big CSFD happy family. Okay? So there you go. If you don't. If you don't get in there and save somebody, these guys are coming.

[Lewis]

All right, you know what? All right, all right, all right. We're gonna go. We're gonna go a couple minutes long. I can't on firemen too long without.

[Mike]

Actually doing a real video. You did a great. That's a. That they posted that. That's a video.

[Lewis]

Hold on.

[Mike]

That's what they wanted everybody to see. The heroes.

[Lewis]

Give me two seconds.

[Mike]

And then a hero comes along with the strength to carry on. You can show Reagan not pick us up at the airport. What are you gonna show?

[Lewis]

I don't know if I can find it. I had it. Really?

[Mike]

We're ending it on that? We're ending. Watch the four hour Night Shift intro. There's fireman in there. There's firemen in there.

[Lewis]

Hold on.

[Mike]

I gotta.

[Lewis]

How do I send it to Lewis?

[Mike]

What is it just a video on your phone? Yeah, email it to the. You gotta email it.

[Lewis]

All right. Email.

[Mike]

That might say mail drop. Mail drop it.

[Lewis]

If you're preparing now I gotta wait for it to prepare you.

[Mike]

Mail drop, mail drop. This is what I do for a living. See?

[Lewis]

No wonder there's no videos.

[Mike]

See how difficult my job is?

[Lewis]

It's actually convenient, not harder.

[Mike]

Yeah, I know. He doesn't know what he's doing. He just. He just makes reels.

[Lewis]

I'm gonna send it on Instagram. This is easier.

[Mike]

Oh, my God.

[Lewis]

It's still gotta prepare.

[Mike]

What the is this? I'm telling you, it's not gonna work.

[Lewis]

It's not gonna work on Instagram. All right, there we go. There we go. There we go.

[Mike]

Go ahead.

[Lewis]

The pie just got a lot larger in my little preparing circle. Maybe it's not meant to be.

[Mike]

It's going.

[Lewis]

Dude, it still says preparing.

[Mike]

Yeah. What happens when you're not prepared?

[Lewis]

I can't. We gotta go over. Oh, there we go. There we go. There we go. Sharing as sucker free Sunday.

[Canine]

I don't.

[Lewis]

I want to message it to.

[Mike]

It's gonna be too big for Instagram.

[Lewis]

No, it's not. It's a minute long. All right, it's being sent to. I know. Guys, it's coming. It's a really cool video. Yeah.

[Mike]

Better. Better be. Lewis is late for bingo. Lewis's Ruby's Q practice is pushed back. There it is.

[Lewis]

All right, we got it. All right, check this out. Dude. Guy falls.

[Mike]

Don't shut that mouth.

[Canine]

It.

[Mike]

Make it hot, hot, hot.

[Lewis]

Why the sound go away?

[Mike]

Push up a little bit.

[Lewis]

I could not.

[Mike]

You going to cook hot dogs. We get back not to fall to a flame.

[Lewis]

That's like a.

[Mike]

Hey, back up, back up, back up, back.

[Lewis]

Everybody out. Dude, Come on.

[Mike]

We should end it on my video.

[Lewis]

That was a badass video, dude. Those guys going to. Apparently they list.

[Mike]

They list some code where, like, Lewis is playing it again loud.

[Lewis]

We're. I. Well, remember we asked Reagan, and we're like, why do they go in? They're like, you have to make sure there's no nobody in there.

[Mike]

Yeah, I get it.

[Lewis]

I'm like, dude, why go in there? It's just prop. That was my biggest argument. Why? Why risk your life for property? And they're like, we have to be sure that no one's in there. Even if the person comes out and says, oh, everybody's out of the house. This is my family. You have to go and make sure they're not. And they left somebody in there.

[Mike]

Kevin from home alone. Make sure he's not still in the house.

[Lewis]

The attic burning up. All right, that's it for the antihero broadcast.

[Mike]

We'll see you tomorrow.

[Lewis]

If you haven't joined our Patreon, join our Patreon. So that way you can join us live tomorrow for Patreon Tuesday. Other than that, all week long. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. We'll be here. We'll see you guys tomorrow. Jv team for life.
