Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. Hope all of you are enjoying your summer. We have one month left and then it will be over. And then it ends. And then you are back into the hellish grind. Many of you are still there right now. Actually, I don't know why I'm even saying that. Many of you are still in that hellish grind. Really, truly, many of you were there. And this summer means nothing. The summer means nothing to most people, unless this summer meant nothing to me for many years until I had a little bit of money. Um, and the summer means a lot when you were a kid and then nothing again until you have a dollar. It's true. When you're young, it's like summer matters. Great. I'm out of school, it's a beautiful day, I'm going to the beach. And then summer just becomes hellish and hot. And then if you don't have the resources to enjoy it and you don't live by a body of water, and the body of water you live by is, you know, it's like, it's not swim a bulk. A lot of people live by a body of water. It's like a stagnant pond with brain eating amoeba. And it's like the dumping ground of the key, you know, the local chemical company, you know, so summer then just. It just becomes hot. I remember for years summer was just unbearably hot and miserable. And you would sit in your car and you would stick to the leather. And I remember one summer, many years ago, Burger King came out with a bacon sundae. Get that up. There was a bacon sundae and it wasn't good. And it came out. And they had it one year during the summer and it was a Sunday with the bacon on it. Vanilla soft serve, hot fudge, caramel, bacon crumbles. And a full Strip of bacon. Released in June 2012 for 2:49, the 510 calorie treat was part of the summer barbecue promotional menu before being quickly discontinued. And it was 2012 and it was hot and they gave you the bacon sundae. It was a Sunday with a full strip of bacon on it. You'd eat it in your car. And that's, you know, now this summer is a lot of rage. Bait, meaning like, you know, the peop places like Nantucket or out in the Hamptons, people. The amount of money that it costs to be involved to any degree in those places is offensive to people. And you know, the new thing is the food markets. Like everybody's obsessed with these food markets that have like a $400 melon or, you know, in California, Erewhon had a $19 strawberry. These are stupid things that are designed to get publicity and illicit rage from people. I get it. People are like, hey, I can't fill in the blank, feed my kid and somebody's having one strawberry for $19. And none of these things are real. You know, like they are real. They exist, but they're kind of designed to get publicity to make people mad. And. And then that. Then these things go viral and then people find out about these places. Yeah, melon. A musk melon. Selling it to Hampton's grocery store for $400. And I guess it's like some Japanese melon. And people. And my friend had it. Actually, I had a bite of it. Whatever. It's a fucking melon. Melons suck. And. And there's a backlash, an understandable backlash against this type of consumption. They call it conspicuous consumption. People that, you know, people talking about the status of going to this grocery store and spending this amount of money on lobster salad and da da da da da. And that's why I feel like the vibes in New York City are a lot better than the vibes out east on Long island because there's been a turn. Mamdani is the mayor. He's very popular. The young folks are going to the left and they look at the Hamptons and they kind of go, ugh, yuck. And to their, to their credit and to give credit where credit is due, the silliness of people running around all these high end grocery stores trying to best each other on the. The lines that, you know, how long the line is to get something and really overpriced, mediocre shit, which is what a lot of it is, and the status of saying you did it and that influencer culture of showing People you did is a direct contradiction to the way people behaved with money for many, many years in this country, which is they tried to chill, they tried to be a little quiet about having some money. Now these people are, they're, they're, they're basically going, cut off my head. They're tempting you. They're going, cut off my head. I want my head cut off. I'm taking caviar and I'm putting it on, on a potato chip. And then I'm eating it through my ass. Not even my mouth. I have ass. There's food for my ass. And they're, they're tempting you. They're going, come and lob my head off and watch it roll down the street like a bowling ball. Chill it out, calm it down. People are angry out there. They're hot under the collar. Understandably so. Stop advertising how much you spend on bullshit. And the influencer culture which infects everything. It's like a disease with no, no treatment. Really. The only way to treat it is to line them up and kill them. And I'm not for that. But, you know, Nantucket just banned all these influencers because they go into the restaurant, they start tiktoking, they start doing all this and the people go, hey, man, you're ruining the experience of people. We don't want you in here, we don't want you behaving like this. And, and what are you going to do? So you could ban them or you, you, you can line them up and kill them to make a point. But a lot of these businesses are depending on these people that run in there with the phone and go, now I'll post every now and then a few photos from a restaurant. I go, this is a good restaurant. You know, I, I, I, I think that's a nice thing to do. I don't have a, you know, I have a million followers, whatever, but it's like, that's not my job. My friend has a restaurant in Sag Harbor. It's very good. I put it on Instagram. I go, go here. It's good, but this is not my job. Day in and day out, going and reviewing places and sticking a phone in the face of the people that work there. Some poor waiter or waitress who's doing their job, and then you're sticking a phone in their face. Go, tell me what's going on. People have had enough of this. Yeah, our influencers barred from this Nantucket shop. The store owner said no influencer sign was meant to be tongue in cheek. And it Spurred a heated debate. Here's what people are getting sick of. They're getting sick of this constant need that the way people behave now when people have a phone in their hand, it's like they, they, they. They have the license to behave like a monster. They could run in the kitchen. They can start filming people in the restaurant without their consent. They can start doing this weird thing where they start lighting the food at the table and building a whole production studio at the table to light a, a dish of scallops. Like the. This is, this is a absurd behavior. It's obscene. And then this little, this fian bargain was like, well, the restaurant gets business from these people that invade the restaurant with their antics. But a lot of people are going hey man, this is like not cool. Whatever you're doing, whatever your job is. And I'm not trying to hate on the way people make a living. But if your job involves ruining people's experience and their, in their night and you're running around with your phone and you're acting like a monster, people have the right to say hey, you know what we don't want in here? People who are acting like monsters. Is that okay? Can you for a minute in, for a, for a minute consider that you're in an establishment with other people. Can you for a minute consider that there's other people in the grocery store where you're deciding to film your video. Can you for one second consider there's a man cheating on his wife at the table next to you and he's having sex with someone and he enjoys her more than his wife. He's not divorcing his wife because obviously he would get taken to the cleaners. He's in the wrong and he doesn't want to lose all of his money. He just wants to have a quiet night with his 25 year old secretary and you're there reviewing the fucking risotto and he's about to get fucked. His life's about to fall apart because you cannot keep your camera off people. People's behavior in public right now is out of control. There's no way to justify is a culture where everybody is behaving. Yeah, this was many years, you know, this was a while ago or not that long ago actually. Law partner court canoodling with younger associate in Central park could lose millions as lucrative offer reneged people so here's what I'm telling you is coming. Here's what's coming. Do you want to know what the, the new luxury item in our country is going to be, it's not going to be a melon. It's not going to be lobster salad, which, whatever, it's like, fine, lobster salad's good. But enough already. Cut it out. You're, you're telling people, come cut off my head, cut off my head and rape my dead body. That's not nice. Do you want people taking turns on your dead body after they've lobbed off your head? No. Here's a new luxury item in the country. Privacy. Privacy is going to be the new luxury item in America. People are going to spend all their money to get away from the sea of cameras and, and, and, and, and people that are foaming at the mouth, running around filming people without their consent, running into businesses, making content in these businesses day in and day out. And listen, I've done comedy sketches, I've done Man on the street, all that stuff. Not saying that it shouldn't be able to happen, but this new thing where people, day in and day out, every moment of the day are, are filming people and filming in places and destroying everybody else's experience. It is, it is, it is gross. And they're capturing people on camera in private situations. So this is what it's going to be. It's going to be. People are going to just want and pay for privacy. So these no phones clubs, the, are all over the place now. These private clubs where people go, you can't bring in your phone. And these, these, there's going to be no phone restaurants. I'm telling you, it's coming there. This is all going to happen. They're going to be like, no filming in the grocery store. Leave us alone. Because just the trade off is like, well, don't you want publicity for your business? You know, yes and no. If, if we got to get it like this, I don't know if we want it, if this is how we're going to get publicity. You know, I don't know if we want it because, you know, the people that are here are disturbed and they don't want to be here anymore. They don't want to be here anymore because of the behavior. And there's not only this group of influencers that, that have a lot of money doing this. There are people that are now trying to become them. So it's an endless sea of people that take their phones out and, and start broadcasting to the world what they are doing, where they are, what they are consuming, why or why not. I wait until I am done before I trash a place. I come here and I trash it. And yes, I do it publicly and people listen to it, but I don't trash it while I'm there. I come here after I've had a meal that I've hated or I've met with someone I disliked or I had an experience that I found off putting, and then I come here and I trash it artfully for a living. But I'm not, I don't do it while I'm there. Have a little decency for Christ. Have some sense. So what's going to happen? The married law partner caught in a steamy smooch fest with a much younger associate in Central park could lose tens of millions of dollars after a lucrative job offer was reportedly rescinded. Hotshot attorney Nathaniel Cullerton, 45, likely makes at least 4 million as a partner at the white shoe law firm Wachell, Lipton, Rosen and Katz. He was placed on leave amid an investigation into the viral canoodling clip. Now, by the way, the guy wasn't defrauding anyone. He wasn't acting inappropriately at work. He was not. He was making out with someone in Central park or a park. Was it Central Park? I think it was, yeah. So what? It was legal. So what? Oh, it was immoral. He has a wife. Who gives a fuck. What business is it of yours? I don't understand. So this guy's put on leave from his job. Get a room. Some tiktoker. So this is the thing now, man. People, this is. People are going to start getting killed. Tiktokers are going to start getting killed. People are going to start killing people that are filming them without their consent. The new luxury item in the country is privacy. Find finding people behaving badly, filming people that have had a little bit to drink, filming people that are making out, filming people that are doing all this stuff is going to have a real negative impact on their life. And people are just going to create environments where they can can go where they know they are not being filmed and their activities are not being uploaded to the world. And that's completely reasonable, by the way. It's completely reasonable. And the backlash and the reason, because listen, the hand this. I never went as a kid. I, I, my parents, we grew up on a very different part of Long Island. You've all heard many of the stories where I grew up. None of it had to do with the Hamptons. But the school taxes in the Hamptons are pretty low. There are no schools. Summer community for me. It's very pretty area. The food's decent. I know Long Island. Have a lot of friends and family that live in New York. I can get into New York City and do shows and then go out. That's why I lived there. It was never aspirational. I was never like, I need to live there. I barely participated. What goes on out there? I go to a few dinners a year. I went to one last night. Very sweet people. Very nice, very liberal, you know, you're sitting in there, $100 million house. They're very liberal. They're, you know, everyone's raised. Don't you think everyone's racist? Everyone's the race ass. And you're like, all right, all right, all right. Enough, enough, enough. You're in a house that you got 40,000 square feet or whatever, 30,000 something crazy. And they're lovely people, and I love them, and it's very sweet to invite me and order food from the local Mexican restaurant and put it out. That was very sweet. I, you know, perhaps I imagine some other type of cuisine, a chef or whatever. Doesn't matter, because I get it. It's me. And they're like, it'll be fine. Here's some. Here's some guacamole, pig, enough. And then they ask you why America is so racist or whatever. I don't know, you know, so they're. They're. They're lovely people. A little out of touch. Little out of touch. Nice kids. Nice people. One of the kids goes, yo. Finance is like. I've realized it's. He doesn't talk like that, but he. I'm disguising his. But he was like, it's a lot of nepotism. Finance is like a lot of nepotism. It's like a big club of people that, like, know each other and invest in each other. I'm like, right, Ryan? Interesting. You found that out now, have you? But they're sweet people. They're very nice. You know what I mean? And I'm very grateful to them. So I do a few of those things a year. Very few. Because people, you know, it's not. You become a pet for. The thing about the Hamptons is you're a pet. You become like a pet. You become like a little a thing. They buy, get at the market. It's like you're a comedian and, you know some political people. So it's like they buy you. You're like, next to the melon. So they take. There's the melon for four. Hunch. And then you. You're much cheaper. Your Mexican food, a takeout that they throw on a thing and they pick you up and they, and then you're, you're like a little toy, a labubu. And you come in for the evening and they just like kind of, you know, pepper you with questions and they go, so do you think it'll be JD's answer? Marco Rubio? And it's fine. I do. A few times a year I do that. And I have some young friends out there that, you know, that I will hang out with occasionally. And so, but, but the, the reason that people are turning on that area and the reason people hate it and the reason that the vibes in New York have been a lot better, especially since the Knicks one, is because people are just tired of the grotesque display of vulgarity. And that's usually for many years. The Hamptons was low. It was like more lo fi, more chill, more relaxed. People did not behave like that. People drove old beat up cars. He went to the beach. It was a pretty area. And, and, and, and, and the way that it's become Los Angeles or Miami and the disgusting culture out there has, you know, has made people turn on it and you should not like it. It shouldn't be an aspirational thing in the sense, listen, it's a beautiful place to live. I like, I like where I live, for sure. But it's so expensive. It's so silly. The, there's a childish quality to what's happening, which is like people going to grocery stores. You know, the thing about other places, say what you want about the Cape or Marcy's Vineyard or whatever, people are sailing and they're doing things. You go to the Kennedy compound there, they're sailing. Yeah, sure. Are they cursed? Sure, whatever. You know. Do they die all the time? Yeah, but they're doing things that are masculine things. They're, they're sailing and they're swimming and they're out there and doing that. And the Hamptons is kind of, that's not really the vibe. Just a bunch of people like sitting in a humid backyard complaining and which, which I fit into, it's fine. But people are turning on it and there's an anger and it's justifiable. And part of it is because people, you know, really the behavior of people is, is, is making these things less desirable. You go, I don't want to be around people. I hate to say it. I love gusto.

The recluse. The person who like walls themselves off from everyone. I hate to say it, we all used to look at those people and go there's something wrong with them. No, no, no. There might be something wrong with us, because how many times do you leave your house and you're sitting somewhere or you're out, you're walking, you're doing whatever, and you go, I don't need to be here. This was a mistake. This was a mistake. You see someone filming a pork chop and you go, I don't need to be here. I'd rather be home. And the tech people love that. And it's all a big doom loop because the tech people give you the technology to behave like a monster out in public, which forces people to go, I don't want to be in public. And then those people go home. And then the tech people have the technology for them to just be at home. So this is what's coming. What's coming is we're going to live in a. In a world where people are voluntarily taking themselves out of society, walling themselves off in whatever place they can be and not going out as much. And they're going to be hermits. And it's going to be justified because someone's going to film them making out with someone in Central park and they're going to lose their job. Or you're just going to be in some grocery store and. And you know when someone, when you saw someone talking to themselves years ago, it meant they were a schizophrenic and you just walked the other way. And in the downtown of many of our American cities, that's still the case. You see someone talking themselves loudly. You go, okay, I'll walk down another block. Or I'll just note that there is schizophrenic now. It is. It is commonplace for someone to be speaking to their phone in a place. They're talking to themselves. They're. They're in the. They're in an aisle of a grocery store and they're holding up something and they're going, you gotta get these chips. These are the. And you go, you know, what is this? What is this? What's happening here? And this is people's jobs. That's their job. So I, you know, but their job involves ruining the experience of being in public for other people. That's their job. They go, I. Wherever I go, I try to destroy it. I ruin it. That's what I do. And then I put it on the Internet. And then the worst people in the world go, I need this thing. I need it. I must go to it. Hey, who am I? I'm the worst person in the world. Let me call a friend of mine. Hi. Are you a stupid. You know it. What are you doing? You want to. I'm worst person in the world, and you're a stupid cunt. Do you want to go to the and try to get the thing we just saw? Well, only if there's going to be a lot of worse people in the world there and stupid cunts. Oh, it'll all be. The worst people in the world are stupid cons. Well, it sounds good to me. That's what's happening. You're attracting this element of people that, like, is, like. You could just see them. You could feel them. They're like a pulsating energy. They want to be near the thing. These are the people that need to be, like, caged. Okay? They're the people that, like, want to be near the thing they saw. I need that thing I saw. You're supposed to get over this when you're 17. That's why the lines outside of these frozen yogurt places in New York are insane, because younger people go, I need the thing I just saw. And they get on a line and they wait for an hour to get frozen yogurt. And it's like, whatever. It's mediocre frozen. Who gives a fuck? Frozen yogurt with olive oil on it.
B
Who.
A
What do we do? Fine. But they wait for an hour. But if you don't outgrow that, like, if your life doesn't acquire more depth as you get older, it's a sad thing if you still need to be the person who needs to get the thing they just saw. I need to be near the thing. I need to be near it. I need to tell people I'm near the thing. I'm alive and my life has value. Don't you know? Don't you know my life has value? I'm. I'm near the thing. And that's the type of. We're creating that world. Those are the people that influencers are. These are the people that stand in line for, you know, seven months to get a pancake. These are the people that do whatever. And I'm a big fan of restaurants, and I plug restaurants all the time. I'll take a photo of a food and I'll go, this place rocks. You know what I mean? But that's where it ends. That's where it ends. Quick photo doesn't disturb anybody. And I don't do it a lot, but that's where it ends. I don't. You don't stop making a documentary about French toast. It's not right. And it. And it. And it drives the culture in this really grotesque direction where every single thing is about marketing. That's the thing. I have no beef with Taylor Swift. But you know what? A lot of Taylor Swift, you know, she's talented. Yeah, whatever. She's fine. She's great. What do you want from me? Um, the. My. What was very interesting is her fans would tell me, they'd be like, she's so good at marketing. It. It was like, this has become such a part of our culture now. Everything's about marketing. Everything's some version of a scam. And people know they're being scammed and they like it, and they just admire the scam. There's no genuine something being good. It's something that shoved down your throat, and you. You. You will. You will crave that, and you will admire the techniques they used in which to shove said product or experience down your throat. And. And you be you. That's what. I was amazed when they were talking about Taylor Swift. They go, she's such a good marketer. She's such a good businesswoman. And that was the way that people described her. I thought that was, like, strange. I'm like, what about the music? And they were like, yeah, yeah, that's great. We love that. But. But more importantly, she was a good marketer and a good businesswoman. And that's just the era that we're in. So there is a backlash against that culture. It's gotten to a point now where I think people are now withdrawing. And they're right. I'm against withdrawing. I think you should be out there with people. I think you should be integrated into the world. I think you should talk to people you disagree with and meet different people and meet different cultures. I'm all for that. But now I understand why people are withdrawing from the world. And they go, I don't want to be out if people are going to act like this. I don't want to be out if everything costs so much money for the sake of it. The point is that it's overpriced. The point is that you're offended. The point is that it's exclusionary. It's not. It has no bearing on reality. It's not based on value. It's just completely rage, bait, and anger. And it's built on this idea that the more attention you get, the better it is, no matter what. And I think a lot of people just say to themselves, I don't want to be around the people that need to be near the thing. I don't want to be around those people. They're exhausting. The people that cannot live if they are not by the thing. They are not near the thing that's happening that they saw on the Internet that they have to be a part of. I need that.
B
They are.
A
And the privacy thing is real. And this poor fuck, whatever, not poor fuck, he's a rich lawyer, whatever. But here's the thing. Now everyone's like, fuck this guy. He's a lawyer, whatever. He's rich. He's hooking up with a younger girl. Whatever reason, people have decided to hate him, I'm sure. But he didn't do anything wrong at work. From what I know, he's put on administrative leave because some TikTok goes viral. And. And I'm telling you, privacy will become the new luxury item in society. And you're going to pay not only to be outside of the public who's just trying to film everything everybody does for their own content, for their own survival, for their own living. And then you're also going to try to opt out of surveillance because we're going to be living in an area where flock cameras are the thing. And, you know, the surveillance is going to get increasingly integrated into your daily life. Another thing they said at the party, which is funny, sweet people about Foushee. They're like, let's just move on from Foushee. But here's the thing. A lot, yeah, chilling. Map shows where more than 117,000 surveillance cameras are hiding in the US is your hometown being watched? Everybody's going to be on the grid in a big way, and it's coming and you're going to do so. I'm. I'm here to tell you right now, if you withdraw from society and become a hermit, not only do I not judge you, I may join you. I think you are correct because of the way people are behaving, saying, no, I'm not going out. I don't want to be out. I don't want to spend the money. It's. Nothing's as good as it's sold to me. It. Nothing feels great. I go out. Traffic to places is terrible. Now just stay in your head. The oceans are gross. They are poisoned. They have bacteria, they have sewage. The oceans are over. By the way, hashtag, oceans are over party. I want you to get up this kid, saving this other kid. Cause I want to comment about this in Laguna beach, but you are right to not leave your home. You are correct. I'm telling you, and I wouldn't have said that a while ago, but now I believe that. I believe that there's a real argument for why you should not leave your house. So now here's a lifeguard, a young lifeguard, and he saved this kid and he's being invited to the White House because, you know, whatever, he saved the kid. Now, by the way, I was a lifeguard for many years. Never invited to the White House, never really saved anyone. No one needed to be saved. I worked at a pool. It was not the beach. I worked at the beach for a little bit very briefly before the end. And, you know, here's the thing. Listen, I respect what the kid did, but he's a lifeguard, he's doing his job. And I'm a little sick of people getting a pat on the back for doing their job, quite frankly. I don't care that he's 16. I and I don't care that he saved anyone's life. He's doing a job and he did it well. And I think we're sending the wrong message to people when they do their job that we need to make a big fucking deal about it. But let's watch it.

This is a very young lifeguard, and if you haven't seen this video, it is not a stretch to say that this was a dramatic rescue, considering especially that the lifeguard who is fighting for that kid's life is just 16 years old himself. This is at Sea Bright beach in Santa Cruz over the weekend. The man who took this video says the life lifeguard rushed into the water when a young boy, about 10, was overwhelmed by wave.
A
Where are the other lifeguards?
B
Keep going, just to hold on to the boy and tries to drag him to shore while also getting pummeled by the waves himself. Other swimmers try to help while another lifeguard makes his way to the tube. Scott Vander Dusen, the witness who got this video, says conditions change.
A
Shot shockingly fast, the waves. So this guy was just filming two people die. By the way, he should be at the White House. Trump is more aligned with this guy's values than the kid who saved the other kid. So this guy is filming these two children die. The one, one lifeguard saving this kid and this guy. Scott Vander Dusen is standing there on a beach filming it and trying not to help. That is the American way. You, sir, should be brought to the White House. You did the more important thing. You weren't the quote unquote hero, but you documented here. And by the way, if they didn't survive. He would have filmed the death because that's what he's out there doing. He's out there just filming shit. He's got the phone out and he's filming it. They were those, that lifeguard and the kid. It is dramatic. They could have easily been swept out to shore, could have went bad. And does this guy run to the thing to help him? No, he does the more important thing. He stands on the beach and films them and he goes, yep, they may die. They may die. Let's go, let's see this. They may die. It's either going to be a real heroic situation or they might die. But either way, I've got. I've got a great vantage point of which to film this. Let's see what this bum says. Waves were really. I wouldn't say they were tranquil, but they were what you would expect and normal cadence and normal intensity. And then that just changed. And it changed in a heartbeat. And it caught a lot of people off guard. Unfortunately, this young man was not. You weren't caught off guard. You were filming it. He goes, this man was overwhelmed. And the only thing I could do is take out my phone. The only thing I could think to do in that overwhelming time was to take out my phone and film this child die. That's all I could think of. Here, keep going. This fat people like this fascinate me. Yeah, I'm glad it ended the way that it did. I'm certain that if the lifeguards weren't there, he wouldn't have gone home that night.
B
Right.
A
And. And you go, yeah, it's just what it is. I would have filmed to death. I would. It would have been a snuff film. I would. Filming stuff. I'm just going to. Filming snuff films on the beach. I'm Scott Vander Dusen. I'm out here filming people die on a beach. If I see someone dying on a beach, I get the phone right out now, by the way, it's, it's, it's fine. You know, it all end. All's well that ends well. Right? But the lifeguard was doing his job. The. The guy that took out the cameras actually providing the more, the better service because we would not have known about any of this, I guess, if we didn't have him filming. So just decide who in the group is going to try to be the hero and who's going to film it. Easy, easy. It just, just, just. When you. When you're out with your boys or your gals, when you're out in town, just go, if something pops off, who's gonna film this? Who's gonna run into the 9 11, the burning building? And who's gonna film it? Who's gonna.
B
Just.
A
Who's who here? Let's just g. Let's get to the core of who everybody is immediately and decide who's gonna film. I'm not. I'm gonna do neither. But I'm not running into the building. I'm not gonna film it. I. I need to just observe it so I can talk about it later. That's my job. That. Sorry. That's my skill set. I'm going to do a point by point breakdown of it and that's going to matter because history matters and we need to know the things that happen. Someone will film it and then someone will run in and try to save the person. But we. I can't do. I can't give my life. And then someone else I know has to then talk about what happened. It won't work. We all have to cater to our skill set. My skill set is that I stand back, someone films it, someone tries to intervene, I stand back and I'll describe it. A couple days later. When I've had the time to really put it in perspective, I'll go out there and describe it.

Lindsey Graham, friend of the show, was was laid to rest earlier in the week. And now Miriam Adelson pays tribute to Lindsey Graham and tells the story of taking him to Israel as a freshman congressman. Can you imagine we're going to play this for you but can you imagine Lindsey Graham's first trip to Israel as a freshman congressman? How naughty it was. Can you imagine the fun that man had? He spent his entire life trying to recapture the fun of Freshman Congressman Week in Israel sponsored by Miriam Adelson. Well, you could just do anything you want in Israel. He probably had so much fun and good for him. I don't have a problem with that. It's all the killing he did after that I don't love. But let's listen to Mary Madison, another friend of the show, lovely woman who is speaking about Lindsey Graham. Who is she purchased him many years ago and brought him to Israel and probably it was been a, it's been a good investment. I'm sure she's unhappy that he's no longer with us but she got a lot of years out of Lindsey Graham. She bought him young and she got a lot of years out of him and that's all you can ask for really is he was durable. I'm sure she wanted A few more. But here it is. Miriam Adelson talking about Lindsey Graham, who she bought many, many years ago and. And had in her collection for a long time and sadly laid him to rest recently. Here she is, Dr. Miriam Adelson.
B
We were very close friends.
A
Yes.
B
Of Lindsay Sheldo. We met him in 1990. Approximately. There was a mission of APAC and we took freshman congressman Republican to Israel.
A
Here's the thing. Stop it for a minute. Here's the thing about supervillains. They're. They're just. They're very likable. This is the thing about liberals. They're not likable. No matter how hard they try, they just can't. Leftists can be likable, but the, the shit libs, they're just so hard. They're. They're. It is very difficult. They, they. They are condescending, they're patronizing. There's something about a super villain. Like, I'm against Miriam Adelson's aims. I don't like the things she does. Obviously. Like, that's obvious. Obvious. But there's just something about her. If you were to have a lunch or a dinner with her, she'd be so much more fun than like a gender studies professor at Columbia. Like Miriam Adelen would just be so much fun because she is a super villain. And she likes it. She likes it. She actually enjoys her life and. And she enjoys it. She likes it. It's not. She's not. This doesn't feel like. This feels like a labor of love buying us politicians and getting them to support whatever Israel wants to do. It feels like a labor of love with her. Again, I don't think it's particularly good for Israel, for America, for anyone. But there's just something about her personally. It's infectious. She has a kind of an infectious passion. Let's. Let's keep listening to her.
B
So we. And Sheldon and me and another two partners of Sheldon paid for the trip, donated it to apac. Educational group, something like that.
A
Something. Whatever.
B
And then we met Lindsay.
A
Yes.
B
And I want to tell you, I. As a physician.
A
Yes.
B
I love to see the brain.
A
Interesting.
B
And the eyes are our brain.
A
Yes.
B
And they were so pure and blue.
A
Yes.
B
And what. What? I mean, you could.
A
He was thinking about pee pees. He was thinking about penises.
B
So honest with integrity.
A
Yes, Integrity and honest. That's the way I would describe it.
B
And the relationship continue for years. Israel mentioned it.
A
Yes. He sent a dominatrix to his home and we met Lindsay and I look in his eyes. I go, you want to be dominated by man. Yes. And we send a dominatrix, me and Sheldon, you know, we pay for it, donate the dominatrix to Lindsay, to his home to come to see him. And the dominatrix, of course, dress like a regular person when they knock on the door, you know, oh, I'm delivering the pizza, whatnot. I'm here for the FedEx. I have package. And then the dominatrix gets out, and they tie Lindsay up and they make him go on force like dog. And it's amazing. And we donate that to Lindsay. We donate dominatrix to Lindsay.
B
I talked today with this secretary, Betty, and I asked her, tell me more about the relationship. She was telling me every day. There was not a day the children talk with Lindsay. Oh, they, they were. Talked about Israel.
A
Yes.
B
Lindsey gave him advice. Sheldon gave him advice.
A
What else did they talk about?
B
Anything else?
A
They talk about Israel every day. And, you know, they would talk about many things like Israel and also. But that was mainly it. But it's. Every day is beautiful friendship. They have to. Oh, that's the end of it. That's it. Well, Miriam Adelon, you know, listen, she, Love, she. It's a labor of love. It's a labor of love. I want to watch because I, I want to watch this storming of a beach in Spain. And I, I, I only recently became aware of this. But. These are migrants. And apparently some people are suggesting insane footage from the Moroccan border with Spain. Thousands of migrants are gathering at the border. This is exactly what Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez was aiming for. So there are people that are accusing this of being orchestrated to a degree. I know nothing about this, by the way, so I'm not going to comment on any of whether that's happening. I do know migration is the biggest issue in Europe, and I do know that migration is largely driven by foreign policy decisions made by the United States and Western powers. Not all, not all migration, but a lot of the destabilization of these countries was because we toppled governments and, and inspired coups and, and, and the, the resulting civil wars and displacement sent a lot of people flooding through Europe. However, there's other issues, climate and stuff like that, that causes people to leave their place of residence, their homes, and to seek shelter in a country with more infrastructure and more money. And some of those people, I'm sure, are lovely, and some of them are not. And sorting that out is not easy. But it is the biggest issue in the world, for sure. Spanish politicians, commentators, accuse Israel of stirring chaos over this Migration crisis. Israeli diplomat Danny Dannon and Spanish Transport Minister Oscar Puente exchanged barbs over. How do you pronounce it? Suta? Ceuta. I think it's Suta. Exchange barbs over Suta Migration claims. While Spanish commentators accuse Israel of seeking revenge against Madrid over its Gaza policy, diplomatic tensions between Spain and Israel over the Gaza war have increasingly spilled onto social media, where the migration crisis in Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta emerging as the latest flashpoint after an exchange of barbs between the Israeli UN Ambassador and Spanish Transport Minister Oscar Puente down and accused Spain of reportedly criticizing Israel while declaring a state of emergency in Suta over a migration crisis. Spain, which never misses an opportunity to lecture. Israel has declared a state of emergency in suit of following the crisis over its immigration. So they are, they are people saying that Israel somehow put it got these people into boats. I think that's what they're saying. Yeah. They, they were just like, here are the boats. Go over there. Listen. I mean, I don't know what went on, but it does seem like a lot of people are just getting in boats. I don't know if it's Israel, but hold on, let me, let's see this because I don't even know what's happening. So this was just. They were at a beach. Everybody's at a beach. And then all the, do we have the full video where like all these boats just show up? There's a couple videos. There's a couple of videos, but these are from, these are Moroccans.
B
Yeah.
A
And they land on the beach in Spain and I guess they're going to flood through Spain and then you're going to demand, like, you know, asylum and then they'll get some money. Yeah. Let's watch this video, just get an idea of what's happening. I, I, this whole thing is very difficult for me to understand. I'm trying to, if there is there another video, do they show up in boats? I guess they show up in boats. Right. Because they're coming from the water. I don't think it's necessarily boats. I think there's, what are they doing? Swimming? I think they're walking over the coast. Oh, it's a border. Yes. And they're walking over. Yes. Some of them look like they're swimming. What? Okay, so again, thousands of migrants crossing from Morocco into Spain. The Morocco is not really a super poor country. Right. I don't think it's a poor country. So I don't know what's going on and I don't. And I guess there's theories that somehow this Israel punishing Spain, but I don't even know how that would. Hundreds of migrants storm and the people in Spain are accusing Israel of this. Some Spanish politicians. Hundreds of migrants storm second Spain enclave as shots fired on border after 60,000 breach EU territory in 24 hours 60,000 is a lot of people. That's a lot of people. The migrants made the dangerous passage from Morocco to the two European territories on Thursday as they swarmed the beaches by sea and land. Okay, so some did come by sea. Thousands. Well, by the way, okay, so I listen, I'm. I need to educate myself more on this before I really speak on it, this specific thing. But I will tell you this, this won't end. This is the dominant story for the vast majority of our adult lives. Meaning, like this migration will not go away. I don't, you know, you can't say that. Israel does every single thing in the world. They do. A ton of things I disagree with, and I don't know what happened here, but what I will say is that the idea that people are going to come into Europe and demand to live there and demand money and demand to have asylum, refugee status, whether that's valid or not, this is not going to end. A lot of people feel that this is the justifiable, you know, reconquering of these lands because they were carved up by colonial powers years ago, that these were colonial powers and they carved up the Middle east and things like that. And now this is what you get for that. Of course, those people don't understand that there were. There's many examples in history of barbarism, of one group of people colonizing another, of one group of people enslaving another. This is not only Western colonial powers, this is the history of the world. But that's a lot less fun. And it's very. It's very messy and difficult, and it has a complexity to it that doesn't allow people to squeeze it into the kind of modern current narrative, which is that the only fault of the world is largely that white European colonial powers have subjugated, enslaved, dominated other races and other groups of people. But you can find examples of that all over the world. Muslims have taken slaves. Some countries still have slaves. There's barbarism on the continent of Africa. There's been barbarism between China and Japan. You could go back to the Ottoman Empire, to the Persians. You know, it's whatever. You could go all over the world and find examples of all these different things and. But this is. People don't. Make no mistake. People. Some people are kind of okay with this. Some people are kind of okay with it. They don't really care. They go, good for them. That's kind of the attitude when, when, when people like storm a country, people kind of go, good for them. They go, yeah, fuck it. Good for them. They're, they're, they're getting theirs. But of course, the world that comes from this is not a world anyone wants to live in. It's a world of violence. It's a world of surveillance. It's a world of chaos. Nobody wants to live in that, I guess. Or people just don't care. They're mad that they can't afford a. A$400 melon which no one should be eating cuz they suck. But apparently people are. They will tolerate this level of chaos. They just don't care. And they go, they go, God. Evening. Buyer's remorse. Buy a new car. I'll be moving in. Let's get started. Sorry, I think there's been a mistake. I bought it from Carvana. You what? Yeah, great price. I even have seven days to love it or return it. So there's no. No, no buyer's remorse. More like buyers rejoice. I guess I'll let myself out. Congratulations. I mean it. Buyers rejoice. Buy your car today on Carvana. Limitations and exclusions may apply. See our seven day return policy@carvana.com. so I'll, I'll figure out more. I mean, I don't know that I'll know, but I just, you know, I. There's got to be some understanding here that this won't work. Here's my thesis. This won't work. It's not going to happen. You can't have thousands of people storming into countries that have existed for a long time. Their cultures are well established, the cultural norms are established. Their economies, many of them are stagnating or at least they're in a state of flux. They're transforming. A lot of these countries don't have a manufacturing sector, they don't have an industrial base. A lot of these economies are, I wouldn't quite say failing. Some of them are certainly failing, but a lot of them are stagnating and the middle classes of those countries are evaporating. And I'm speaking about our own, by the way as well. And the idea that you can just ship people in from all over the world or have these people basically show up and then go tell everyone that's concerned about it. To shut up is not going to work. This is not going to work. Running the world like this is not going to work. And the power structure that tells people that they can't have an opinion about this or that they like. And listen, here's the thing, it's just going to be the scene of like migrants are going to be running through the streets and there's just going to be people at a cafe and they're going to, they're going to just have to like, they're gonna have to remember what good people they are when the migrants are running to the street. You're just gonna have to remember if you get robbed, you're a good person. And this is. God, like you're just gonna have to ignore everything that happens. Ignore it. Like the, the grooming scandal, grooming gang scandal where all these young British girls are getting raped. Ignore it. You know, you're letting a lot of military age men into these countries. These are, these are people that are of military age and you're, you're letting them into these countries to cause a lot of chaos. And again, this is by design. It's, they doing. There's a reason it's happening. I don't exactly know. I mean I talked about it on Rogan. I was pretty clear about it. It's clearly because there's lots of people that just look at these countries as economic zones and not actual countries and they just don't care. So I don't know what to tell anybody here other than you're going to need to run the world a different way. You know, Italy suspends Schengen with Spain. Am I pronouncing this right? I think so. Over SUTA migrant crisis closed closes air and sea borders I'm telling you, the term migrant crisis is going to be the term you hear the most. Italy's Interior ministry has ordered the closure of the country CNA air borders with Spain temporarily suspending the Schengen free movement regime between the two countries because Italy and Spain had an arrangement where you could go freely between both of them. But they're basically saying now that's over. It's just not gonna work. The third world is invading the first world and a lot of people think that's cool. And I'm telling you right now it's not gon work. It's not gonna be a nice place to live. It's not gonna be a nice place to live. It's not gonna be nice. You might like it. You like. You know, people love the third world in Theory. It sounds fun in theory. You know, it's a cool thing that a bunch of people in Brooklyn, you know, you know, imagine as being like a really. A really cool place with a lot of people that have been. And some of it's true. Listen, there's a lot of countries in the world that they have been fucked over and I've talked about them. But there's also a lot of countries where they believe in witches and they prosecute rape victims, not the perpetrators, they put the victim on trial. There's a lot of country where women have no rights, gay people have no rights. There is no freedom of speech. You can't criticize Islam in those countries. There is no freedom of protest to mow you down. There are. The cultural norms are completely different in those countries. Cleanliness standards are different. The way people behave in public is different, you know, so this idea that you're just going to invite the third world to come party and it's a migrant summer, that's what people, they go, yeah, it's a migrant summer. Right now, Spain is having their migrant summer. That's what they're having. It's just it, folks, it's not gonna work. Call me racist, call me anything you want, it's just not gonna work. It's not gonna work. It wouldn't work if you took people from Texas and told them they gotta live in little boxes on top of each other in New York City. And they're living in the same country, but the cultures are just vastly different in many respects, politically, culturally, economically. So you're going to take all of the. You're going to take people from Texas who live on acres of land and put them in little boxes in New York City. It won't work. They're going to go, that's not how we live. We don't live the way you guys live. And people in New York City go, I don't want to live in a 6,000 square foot house in Texas. And, you know, I don't want to be a rancher. And the brilliance of this country is that these things can exist and we don't have to. One doesn't have to become the other. So the idea that it's just a bunch of migrants that are. Do we have. Is there an interview with a migrant? I feel like. I feel like. I feel bad about that because it sounds like I'm saying Interview with a Vampire, the movie. Because they'll find a nice migrant. They got to find a nice migrant, right? Like a migrant who says the nice Things. Is this guy interviewing a migrant? Okay, Is this a migrant? All right, let's see what's going on here. Did you swim? So they're telling us that they haven't eaten since they arrived yesterday. What are they fleeing here from Morocco? They're now saying that they're either trying to get food here or they may voluntarily return back to Morocco. Yeah, how about that? How about that? A few people who have offered us money are asked to be taken back to the Moroccan border. Spanish Authorities say that 25,000 migrants who have crossed into Ceuta have already crossed back into Morocco voluntarily. This does seem like a weird thing. I will tell you this. This does seem completely. I will say that this seems. This doesn't seem organic. Right, right. This is a weirdness to it. This is not some organic. I don't know who's behind it. It happened super quickly, kind of out of nowhere. Yeah. This seems like it's an inorganic thing. I don't know what this is, but by the way. So this is gonna be the weapon now that people use. They go, we're sending the migrants. We're sending the migrants. That's what I wanted to do last night at the, you know, this liberal dinner. Lovely people, God bless them. But I wanted to go, here come the migrants. They're storming the beach because they live on the beach. I want to just send migrant boats to my really liberal friends in the Hamptons who have homes on the beach worth 50 mil plus. I want boats of migrants to storm those beaches. Can I do it? Get me Adelson on the phone if he can do it. What do you like? You want boats to come on the beach with the people? We have all of the people for you. We put them on the boats, we send them in the beach. I want that if this can be done. I didn't even know that this could be done. This is like a new thing. So if I can pack boats with migrants and send them to my friends houses in the Hamptons while they're making these points about everybody being racist, I want the houses they live in surrounded by migrants. And I, and I, and I. And I want them to be making these points, drinking wine. They're making a nice point. And they've got big beautiful windows that look right out onto the horizon. And all of a sudden you see the boats and they come in and they're kind of like they're not paying attention. Then all of a sudden they're paying more and more attention. And then you see the migrants just kind of Crashing onto the shore and then surrounding the houses of my friends while they make these. But they go, america's so racist. I go, no, I know. Talk more about that. I think these people are hungry. Maybe you should invite them in. Perhaps, but that would be great. So anyone that can make that happen for me, I don't know how we do it. And again, I'm not trying to sound insensitive, but I do, if possible, would like 80 to 100 migrants, primarily North African. If you can get them to Sag harbor by this Thursday, I have an event, and I will put them out on boats. I mean, by the way, it sounds insensitive, but we'll pay them all for their time. 70 to 80. 80 to 100 migrants, Middle Eastern, North African in appearance, unimportant, whatever. And they'll be paid day rates. SAG day rates. We're not getting them in a Sag. We just can't right now. Day rates. We take them right on the boats and they crash land. A dinner party in the Hamptons while someone's annoying me. Come on, think about. Much fun that would be. And I go, well. Well, actually. And they make some point about immigration or refugees. And I go, actually, it's funny you say that. And then you just see the boats crash land on the shore and people surround the house. I want to see if people in the Hamptons keep that energy while there's a invasion of their homes, which, again, will be completely inorganic, scripted by me. And at the end of it, because I'm gonna have them surround the house and start chanting in a very threatening way, but not even things that make any sense, really, like, you know, just dumb shit. I'll just write a few, like, you know, whatever. Just real racist stuff. Utah boot. And I go, I wonder what they're saying, my friends. And they're going to start to get nervous, and then they're just going to break into song, because that would be fun, too, you know, they just break into, like, right as my friend, starting to get nervous. Because we know this is private property. Should we call some. I think we should. We should call someone. This is private property. And then they're going to break from their chant and you're going to see 80 to 100 North African, Middle Eastern appearance migrants. We can shove some Dominicans in there, too, in the back, but, you know, Puerto Ricans or whatever. But we. We do need them, a lot of them to be Middle Eastern, North Africa. We just need that milieu. It needs to. Look, it's a production. It Needs to look the way. And then. And then right after, like in the middle of their chant, which is going to get increasingly violent. They're going to get increasingly violent. Some of them will dive in the pools. And I'll be sitting there at the dinner. And then. So there's about 80 African, North African, Middle Eastern, whatever, migrants again. Cast, totally cast. Everyone's acting, everyone's paid. There's a craft services table. Everyone's fine. Stunt coordinators. It's a production, it's fine. I'm not being any type of way. They storm the beach. I'm sitting in the Hamptons and they storm the beach and they're doing an increasingly violent chant. Maybe a kill the Boer, which is the South African thing, whatever. They can improvise. I think I like in a production to rely on people doing improv, but very threatening and stuff like that. And then in the middle, right. Right as it gets really scary, and my friends kind of just get up from the table, they're gonna start. The whole group of 80 North African starts just going by. Bye, Miss American Pie. Drove my Chevy to the. And then my friends are gonna go, did you hire these people? And I'm gonna go, guilty as charged. And then all of them will finish singing American pie. And then we'll start singing American pieces. And I think, so if Israel or Adelson or whoever could find a way to do that, I would really love that. Enjoy the week, everyone.
Title: Influencer Poison, Trump’s Lifeguard & The Migrant Summer
Date: August 1, 2026
Host: Tim Dillon
Tim Dillon delivers a scathing, darkly comedic monologue from his Los Angeles porch, unpacking the social rot of influencer culture, the new meaning of luxury, and the chaotic spectacle of migration crises. With his trademark mix of satire, social criticism, and cultural observation, Tim weaves personal anecdotes, news commentary, and hypothetical theatrical scenarios to highlight the absurdity and exhaustion of modern life. This episode explores how influencer entitlement, public invasiveness, and global migration upend old assumptions about privilege, privacy, and belonging.

[34:56] Lifeguard Saves Child, But Who Really “Wins”?

“Just decide who in the group is going to try to be the hero and who’s going to film it. … I’m not running into the building. I’m not going to film it. I need to just observe it so I can talk about it later. That’s my skillset.” (39:07)

Tim Dillon’s episode is a whirlwind of biting cultural insight, exaggerated satire, and genuine social despair. He laments a society driven by manufactured status, surveillanced spectacle, and relentless, performative content over real connection or genuine value. The hour is peppered with absurd hypothetical scenarios and ironic celebration of villainy—both as coping mechanisms and cultural alarms. “Enjoy the week, everyone,” he signs off—ironically, as always, in the midst of the apocalypse.
