Donald Trump is deploying nuclear submarines because Russia made provocative statements. For like the 800th time, it's saber rattling. Russia's been making these claims about nuking the West. If we don't, you know, given to their demands or whatever, Donald Trump is basically threatening back, saying it's time for a peace deal or else I'll stress, we don't know if he means nuclear powered or nuclear armed submarines. So it just does seem like saber rattling. You know, I'll just throw my opinion right into the intro. I don't know that it's cause for alarm or anything like that, but it is interesting. So we will talk about this. And then we got some fun. American Eagle's not apologizing. They actually did issue a statement and they're like, nah, we're all right. They're not going to back down from this and they shouldn't. And then, of course, my friends, MasterCard's now saying they're not pressuring these video game companies to ban adult content. They're denying it, but their denial sounds like they're actually, it's actually true. And then we've got this. This is a crazy story. A jury is awarded money blaming Tesla Autopilot for a crash. So this could be just the beginning. We'll see where this goes. Now, before we get started with all the news, my friends got a great sponsor. It is alio. Check this out, my friends. Let me make sure I can pull this up and get everything going properly. My friends, we all know the world has become increasingly divided politically, socially, economically. But many of these divisions stem from a deeper misunderstanding of how money markets and policy actually work.

So actually there might be one ticket. I think there's one ticket left.
Ian Crossland
Got 30 seconds. Someone's buying it right now.
Tim Pool
Get there. Seriously. That's DC Comedy Loft. We're super excited. It is a sold out show. It's going to be incredible. And don't miss the 9th. On the 9th. We've got tickets still available at DC Comedy Loft. So for everybody else, my friends, smash that like button. Share the show with with everyone you know joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more. We got Jason Ellis.
Jason Ellis
Yay. I made it.
Tim Pool
Who are you, sir? What do you do?
Jason Ellis
I guess I'm a retired professional skateboarder, but I still skateboard, so you can't really retire me. And Tony Hawk is still a pro, so screw that. So am I. And I'm a comedian. That's really my job. And a podcaster. I was a radio host, but now I'm a podcaster, so I think that's pretty much all my jobs. I train people how to box. I teach skateboarding a little bit to the kids, teach them how to do it in a safe way. So that's pretty much my job these days.
Tim Pool
Right on.
Jason Ellis
All right.
Tim Pool
It's gonna be fun. Thanks for hanging out. Richie Jackson is joining us.
Michael Malice
I am Richie Jackson. I am executive director of the Richie Jackson foundation, which is a nonprofit I started back in 2008 to hopefully one day cure me of a medical condition I have called proptosis, otherwise known as bulgy eye syndrome.
Tim Pool
Are you joking?
Jason Ellis
That's a yes.
Michael Malice
We also have Ian Crossland.
Ian Crossland
Hi, Richie. Thanks, Jason. Good to meet you, man. And also, I am also a comedian. I figured this out over the last week. People keep being like, what does he do? Oh, I'm just.
Tim Pool
I just.
Ian Crossland
Lighten the load, baby.
Jason Ellis
Just as confused as you. Yeah.
Ian Crossland
Let's rock and roll. Oh, tape.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Richie Jackson
What's up, guys?
Ian Crossland
Talk to me, homie.
Richie Jackson
Well, it's weird. I put the Australia shirt on this morning, just coincidentally, and I was at a table with two Aussies. I don't know how that. It's just magic.
Michael Malice
I guess you knew what you were doing.
Richie Jackson
Divine. I don't. Yeah, is what it is. So.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
Is that cricket?
Richie Jackson
Rugby. I have a bunch of rugby shirts.
Tim Pool
So.
Richie Jackson
Australia. It's a miracle.
Jason Ellis
I'm from Melbourne, so Aussie rules.
Richie Jackson
Let's go.
Jason Ellis
I don't. I. I'm aware of rugby, but I was the guy that bounced it right on.
Tim Pool
Hey, let's jump into the news. We got this story from Reuters. Trump orders nuclear submarines moved after Russian provocative statements. Indeed. US President Donald Trump on Friday said he had ordered two nuclear submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions in response to remark from former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev about the risks of war between the nuclear armed adversaries. Security analysts called Trump Trump's move a rhetorical escalation with Moscow, but not necessarily a military one, given the US Already has nuclear powered submarines that are deployed and capable of striking Russia. Okay, well, I don't like it either way. So Medvedev. Medvedev said on Thursday that Trump should remember that Moscow possessed Soviet era nuclear strike capabilities of last resort. After Trump had told Medvedev to watch his words, based on the highly provocative statements of the former President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev. I avoided two nuclear submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that. Trump said. I think it's a lot of bluster and we don't know if they're nuclear powered or nuclear armed, which matters. But here's the reality. Russia's been threatening to nuke US and NATO nonstop for years, and it's kind of just like blah, blah, blah. We don't consider your words anymore. None of us are deeply concerned by this, but I don't know, should we be?
Ian Crossland
Well, yeah, we got to end this war. This is like, I don't know what, when, when, when Zelensky came to the US and had that meeting with Trump and JD Vance and then they humiliated him. He was a second language. It was really hard for him that everything changed after that. The tone, his. He basically was like, fuck this.
Tim Pool
Fuck these people. I'm doing what I want.
Ian Crossland
Europe's still going to fund him. Now Trump is just selling the weapons to NATO instead of giving them to NATO. But he's acting like that's a victory. I mean, in a way we're getting reciprocated financially for it, but we're still funding the people droning Russian cities, drone attacking Russian cities. So, like, it's not surprising that they're talking about last resort. So we gotta stop this. I don't know. What's Putin's victory condition? Does he just want east of the Donbass? Is that all? Cuz if he, if we can publicly get him to explain it, maybe he did to Tucker Carlson. I didn't watch the full interview. Probably it's right there for us to take. Just figure out what he wants and let's, let's resolve it.
Tim Pool
That's what Trump's been trying to do, but he's not negotiating anymore.
Ian Crossland
What does he want?
Richie Jackson
Well, that's why you're seeing this, because Trump gave him an Aug. 8 deadline. So he's trying to maximize pressure. I mean, initially, a few weeks ago, he said 50 days, then revised it to like July 28 and then revised it to August 8. So it's maximum pressure on the Russians to try and get Putin to come to a, come to a negotiating table.
Tim Pool
But, yeah, you know, I will, I will stress how, at this, how little I care about the conflict in Ukraine at this point. Yeah, because it's, it's like Trump campaigns on Ending the war. And then Putin's like, not then. I'm just like, why are we still giving money to these guys? Like, yeah, Trump. Trump is saying we're going to send more weapons and more. More money. Why? To, like, force Putin negotiate or something? I don't. I honestly don't think the American people actually care about this at all anymore. No. I don't see flags in people's Twitter accounts or anything like that. Nobody really talks about it.
Ian Crossland
If oil, if the Russians won, which it looks like is going to be inevitable in some fashion, there's going to be some sort of peace deal where the Russians take some territory. Maybe oil is going to go up to six bucks a gallon. Do you think people can handle that? Literally, I'm asking.
Richie Jackson
Well, it's the Europeans. I think we'll be fine. We can. We have other partners. We can. Trump can drill.
Tim Pool
We can take Canada.
Richie Jackson
We can take Canada.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Richie Jackson
We can take Alberta, as we should.
Ian Crossland
We can unify with Canada peacefully.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, Right.
Tim Pool
Annex. Sorry.
Richie Jackson
The correct reclaim. Yeah, yeah.
Michael Malice
How factual is that story that a guy from the west, it was either America or, Or Canada, he took the free citizenship deal in Russia and he ended up getting conscripted, went to the front line and.
Tim Pool
Oh, yeah, I, I heard that, but I don't know.
Michael Malice
It was a fast turnaround. That's what I heard. Drone strike.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Ian Crossland
Canadian guy is a Canadian guy serving.
Tim Pool
You know, live by the sword, man.
Ian Crossland
And, you know, the sword is only across the street. It seems like it's in Russia and it's so far away. But, like, nuclear weapons, intercontinental ballistic weaponry, satellite weaponry that we don't even know, like, they are our neighbors. So we should ask. Alaska and Russia are like, what, 800 miles apart or something? I don't know.
Tim Pool
The. Less than bearings, like 50.
Ian Crossland
Less than that.
Richie Jackson
And, And Sarah Palin could see it from her window.
Ian Crossland
Yeah. Figurative, almost literally. It just seems like the red, white and blue man their flag. It's not a coincidence that it's red, white and blue. They were. After the fall of the Soviet Union, they became seemingly a very strong ally to support and uphold republicanism. I mean, it's, It's, It's a federation, it's not a republic, but they're not communist. And the Chinese Communist Party is economically threatening to take over the globe by purchasing land. So unless the US And Russia are tight. I see AI and the Chinese, takeover inevitable. So we have to be tight with Russia. We've got to be allies with Russia. And the people are the people. If you Talk to them. They're the same Russians, right?
Tim Pool
Yeah. I think everyone's lying and everything's fake.
Jason Ellis
I'm with you.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Smoke.
Tim Pool
Yeah. Like, this thing's been going on for years. We have no idea what's happening at this point. Trump wasn't able to negotiate a peace deal. But it's not just that. Like, you're talking about the negotiations of trade, all the stuff we need to be allies with. And it's like, we're hearing now the liberals are saying that the federal government is no longer tracking inflation data the way they used to. They switched it up in May so that Trump can effectively make whatever numbers he wants so it looks good. On the right, they're saying, no, that's not correct. The numbers are just good. And I'm just. I'm sitting here being like, I. I don't know, man. It's all fake, I guess.
Ian Crossland
Age of deep thing. They want. They do want to demoralize. I said they. But it's a tactic to demoralize your. Your others by getting them so confused that they give up. That is a tactic. So it's. I. I feel that, too. I feel like I don't even know what's real, so why even care? But, yeah, that's. It feels like I'm being opted by.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Richie Jackson
Well, I think that specifically Trump's strategy is the flood. The zone is flooded with information. If you keep changing deadlines, changing this, that, and the other.
Tim Pool
You think Trump is doing that?
Richie Jackson
Yeah, I think that's part of his. I think that's part of his strategy is it allows the administration to have a lot more breathing room, because some of the stuff they're pulling off right now would have been completely impossible 10 years ago. And I think part of that is because the media and the left are so demoralized, and no one can keep up with what he's doing because it changes each day is actually a strategy.
Tim Pool
That was the Pam Bondi Epstein strategy. Just say a bunch of random crap.
Richie Jackson
And, I mean, that one's a little different story. But. But as far as, like, negotiations go, I mean, I think that tracks.
Ian Crossland
Certainly with Russia, it's better to. What is it? Apologize than ask for permission. That's the strategy.
Tim Pool
I hate that so much.
Ian Crossland
I do, too. But it's functional on a mammalian level. I think mammals are more attuned to you, just, you know, taking what you need and then apologizing later as opposed to, oh, can I, Can I? No, you're not gonna be part of the gene pool. You're asking too many questions, bro.
Tim Pool
That's a really, really weird.
Ian Crossland
It's deep mammalian behavior.
Tim Pool
Okay, so when you say you're not gonna be part of the gene pool, can you take. Can you now explain the logical. Logical conclusion of what you mean?
Ian Crossland
People that wait to be. To eat last, and they're like, they ask, can I have some of the meat from our kill? Can I? I'm waiting my turn.
Tim Pool
I understand.
Ian Crossland
I won't die because they didn't get fed.
Tim Pool
When you then say you won't be part of the gene pool and imply.
Ian Crossland
Something else, saying that to the person that is on is. Is just asking and refuses to, like, just take it and apologize later. If you're always the person that asks, you might end up being. Your genes may just not procreate because you're waiting to get fed. You're always asking. So there's a time and a place when you've got to, like, seize the opportunity if it hurts people or things actually.
Michael Malice
Right. Because, you know, dogs will take food without asking and they'll apologize later. And there's millions of them.
Tim Pool
Right.
Richie Jackson
Very good point.
Jason Ellis
Interesting.
Ian Crossland
I'm not saying as a human we should be doing this, but I think it's a mammalian trait.
Jason Ellis
I did it the other day. My friend owns a horse. She's a rich person. She got a rich horse. And now I see the horse all the time. So it's our horse. And she was like, when you ride him, I want to be there the first time you ride him. And she hasn't been around lately. So I just rode him. And then I filmed it. And I was like, hey, I rode your horse. And I feel like if I had said, I'm going to ride your horse today, she would have said, wait till I get there. And she wasn't going to get there. She was busy. And I was like, I rode him and I'm alive. And she was like, well, then if you're alive and it's okay, then everything's okay. And I was like, that worked.
Tim Pool
There you go. See?
Jason Ellis
So there you go.
Tim Pool
But you know what I was told is, Ian, it's always ask. Because you might not have to buy her dinner.
Ian Crossland
That's a good point. You might get driven, you know, you never know. You might not have to drive.
Tim Pool
Serge is laughing, but I don't know if Ian understands.
Ian Crossland
No, no. Always ask. I'm with it. I think I grew up asking for permission, living inside the lines. But there's a time and a place when you gotta make noise and Be the one that stands up in the crowd unexpectedly and not wait to be called on.
Jason Ellis
Depends on how hungry you are.
Tim Pool
Yeah, you know. You know what's actually funny information? I actually just told the story the other day about when I was. When I was flying to Ukraine, we had to stop in Moscow. This is. This is 10 years ago. So I'm in London and Vice sends us to Kiev. It's a. It's a connecting flight that lands in Moscow and flies to Kiev. In the uk, when you're getting on a plane, they like, now calling group one. And you, like, you get up and you go in line and you're in group one, like, now calling group two, and everyone's orderly in Moscow, they say in Russian or whatever, not calling group one. Every single person stood up and rushed the, like, the gate, and they were shoving each other out of the way and just wiggling their tickets in the air. And then I was, like, standing there shocked, like, what is going on? It's weird. And so I said, when in Rome. And I shoved my way through and then just gave them my ticket, went on as everybody. And then I realized something. With the Soviet Union and communism, if you lived in a. In a system like. Like the Soviet Union that was starving, if you were the kind of person that got in line and waited, there was no food left by the time you got to the front. But if you were the person that shoved everybody the way and ran up and grabbed the food and ran, you survived.
Jason Ellis
It's the same in China.
Michael Malice
I was going to say. I would expect that from the Chinese, but not the.
Jason Ellis
I noticed that lining up for planes if. Oh, yeah, this person keeps bumping into my back when I'm in the line. I know it's not disrespect. It's just where they come from. They're like, yeah, I'm trying to get as close as I can. Like, deal with it.
Michael Malice
Still not cool.
Tim Pool
I wonder if that board's faster. Just free. Because I was watching this video. It's a video that went viral a while ago about how boarding airplanes is fake.
Richie Jackson
Oh, right.
Tim Pool
They do it because it makes people feel good, for real. Like, you can pay to board first, and so people do. And it's. They were saying that boarding at Rant randomly is faster than the way we do it. But people get angry because they. They think, like, I have, you know, status and I pay extra, or they want to board with their family and they don't want to. So the. The most efficient way to board is Windows first. Then aisles, or I'm sorry, then middle seats, then aisles. But instead they're just like, nah, we're going to keep it this way. And it sucks and doesn't work.
Ian Crossland
It makes more sense to board the back of the plane first. But the people that pay the money want to sit up.
Tim Pool
Front, aisles, windows first.
Ian Crossland
Both like windows in the back. And then you'd slowly come to the.
Tim Pool
Front of the plane, right? And then the middles, then the aisles.
Ian Crossland
Luggage is open near the front.
Tim Pool
And then people get mad because they're like, I got here an hour early and I want to put the bag up.
Jason Ellis
I don't think people know how to get on and off a plane anymore. Oh, yeah, that's what I've noticed. Doesn't matter what you say. It's just like, I know people can't get off a plane. That's the one I noticed the most.
Michael Malice
When you're on fire, just get.
Jason Ellis
Just go. And it's some. They had their bags back here, or they're waiting for this, or they're trying to do two bags. Or somebody in front of me is trying to sneak in front of me and the other person wants to wait. And I'm like, what is with all you people? Like, same as when I see in traffic, like, people line up in the big line. I'm like, there's a line right there where no one's in it, but nobody goes over there. It's just dumb. People are dumb.
Ian Crossland
I think slowing down and lines in order actually gets you there faster because of the risk of traffic jams which can clog up the entryway. It's why you got to back off and let everyone off the train first before you board the train. In New York, it's etiquette is like, get out of the way. Let everyone off. And I think that's probably why societies that, that grab and take are usually fail.
Jason Ellis
Also, people think that skateboards is not luggage. You ever get that? So I take my skateboard on the plane and people, I put it in, in the overhead and someone goes, this happens a lot. Whose skateboard is this? And I go, mine. And they go, well, you need to move it. I'm like, no, I don't. And they're like, what do you mean you don't? I'm like, this is. It's my bag. It was in there first. If your bag was in there, I wouldn't go, whose bag is this? You need to move it. Just because mine's got wheels on it. Yours has usually got wheels on it, too. I'm not moving it. But there is a weird thing where I'm a child. I have a child's toy, and I do not deserve equal respect as another person because it's a skateboard, not luggage.
Tim Pool
They try this with guitars, too.
Ian Crossland
Did you move it?
Tim Pool
Everybody's man.
Jason Ellis
No, never.
Tim Pool
Okay.
Jason Ellis
I get in trouble because I. I look like an as well. So it's like, look, we're not trying to start trouble, sir. To my. I'm not starting trouble. I'm just telling you that that's staying right there. It was there first.
Ian Crossland
Is it your checked luggage? Yes. Oh, okay.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
There's a weird thing where people treat skateboarders differently than normal people. This.
Tim Pool
We are an oppressed minority.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, I believe we are. I stand with you guys. I stand.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, I get profiled, man. Tony Hawk is. It's his fault, too, because he skateboards in the airport. And I do, too, because I see him do it. But the difference is, I've realized this from trial and error. When Tony Hawk skateboards in the airport, everyone goes, whoa, it's Tony Hawk. When I skateboard at the airport, people don't go, run. Well, cool. It's Tony Hawk. They go, who is this asshole? And who does he think he is? And then people get mad at me.
Tim Pool
You know, it's funny. Like, do you think Tony Hawk understands his privilege?
Jason Ellis
Oh, yeah.
Tim Pool
No.
Jason Ellis
Because we've talked about it. When we used to have the podcast together, I had a security guy go to me, hey, you can't skate in here. And I was holding it, and I was like, I'm holding it. And he was yelling at me, and I was like, but I'm holding it. And he's like, well, you can't skateboard in here. And I'm like, agreed. But as you can see, sir, I am holding it. And he was like, it's people like Tony Hawk. And he mentioned him by name. The first thing I did when I got home was go, dude, you are making my life hell. People are pointing me out now because you are posting videos of you skateboarding in airports.
Tim Pool
You ever. You ever. You watch 30 Rock? Yeah.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
You know that Jon Hamm bit they had where he was in the bubble? So in. In 30 Rock, John Hamm's character is so attractive. He's. He's, like, mentally retarded. But everyone keeps talking about how great he is, how smart he is. He thinks he speaks French, but he doesn't because they just find him so attractive. That's. That's. There. There are People like that, that walk through this world getting away with things like Tony does.
Jason Ellis
He has. He. He also does have stories where he gets treated like me, because not everybody knows Tony Hawk. A lot of people do, a lot more than us. But every now and then he has been told, you cannot bring that on the plane. Because some people will make up their own rules on a plane. Like the. The flight attendant goes, you cannot bring that on the plane. And. And he'll go, how's that possible? I checked in my bags and the person said, you bring in the skateboard on the plane. Sounds good. But now you're trying to check. Because some people pretend that, well, they think that they're their own security or they can call the shots. And now instead of, you don't have an argument. But Tony will not argue with the lady if she's, you know, he can't bring it. But he's been checked before and, and, and called out for having a skateboard.
Tim Pool
You know what I do when I'm boarding a plane and they say, like, hey, we're full. You can't bring your bags on. I just go, oh, sorry about that. I walk to the back of the line and then I hold the bag slightly at an angle to where the person at the gate no longer can see it. And then I walk up and scan my ticket. They don't say anything.
Ian Crossland
And I walk out with my dude. They'll be like, you can't have two carry ons. You can't have your backpack and your fanny pack. You have to put the fanny pack in the backpack is when you walk through the aisle and then you can take it out.
Jason Ellis
I've had that.
Richie Jackson
Well, they just. They make up rules like you're going through tsa and then they yell at you like, I didn't realize those keep your shoes on day. I'm sorry.
Michael Malice
Yeah, what's the deal with airplanes?
Ian Crossland
They're pretty coward. But wonderful technology. Amazing.
Tim Pool
Let's jump to this next story from tmz. American Eagle. Sydney Sweeney's jeans ad is about jeans. Speaking of jeans that the Ian was just mentioning. So they're actually trying to claim they've issued a response saying Sydney Sweeney has great jeans. Is and always was about her jeans. Her jeans, her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their American Eagle jeans. From the Cascades to PDX to your kitchen. We recycle like we live here. That's why governments, brands, and recycling companies are all joining together to bring change to make recycling better. As in trusting that your recyclables end up in the right places to be made into new things and having brands help fund the cost of recycling. You can find the Latest updates@recycleon.org Oregon. From Mount Hood to the bin under your desk. Together we can do this with confidence. Their way. Great. Jeans look good on everyone. Come on. Jeans are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color. My jeans are blue Cities. Tweenie, Hasbro.
Ian Crossland
Love it. Love the semantics.
Tim Pool
So I'm like, with this commercial from a week ago and this statement now, are they really trying to claim that they're not talking about her genetics?
Ian Crossland
I think they're doing both, aren't they?
Jason Ellis
Yeah, they. I thought that's what they were doing. I just don't get how it's racist.
Tim Pool
Me neither.
Jason Ellis
Because I was on TikTok before I saw the. The actual ad, and I saw a bunch of tick tockers flipping out on her for the ad, and I was like, oh, man, what has she done? And now I'm trying to find the actual ad and I'm like, wait, maybe I'm not watching the actual ad yet because I'm not seeing it. And then I. And then I realize, no, you did. You watched it. You're just not getting that there's some racist. It's just she's saying she's hot, she's got blue eyes, and her jeans are blue. It doesn't mean anything about being a superior race or anything.
Michael Malice
Well, the campaign. To be fair, the campaign was originally titled Eugenics, but I think they had to change that when it's 20.
Jason Ellis
This is a bulging odds thing.
Michael Malice
Again, it's a serious condition.
Ian Crossland
And truthfully, Beyonce also has great genes. I would argue it's with a G. I think she was genetically blessed as a human and. But they didn't do a Beyonce ad. I don't really care what color skin the person has. When you're talking about who has good genetics as a human.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm not like a.
Tim Pool
But.
Jason Ellis
But basic for me, anyway, so.
Tim Pool
So what basically happens is they're clearly talking about her genetics. Yeah. She's literally saying genes are passed down. And so for some reason, the. I guess these. These. These woke lefties were like, genetics means eugenics. And it's like nobody said you have to be white or anything like that. They were just saying she has good genes and they're commenting on her boobs. And then they got all mad about it, and now it looks like American eagles trying to Claim it's just about her jeans or her pants.
Ian Crossland
I like that.
Michael Malice
She said. And even eye color. If it wasn't genes determining eye color, what would it be? It's literally the only thing now.
Richie Jackson
If they do a collab with Hugo Boss, that might be a red flag.
Jason Ellis
There you go.
Ian Crossland
I bet when they were in the. The group was in there talking about, how are we going to do this commercial? You know, they're putting it all together. They probably discussed, should we say jeans with a G or with. Just spell it with genes. It'll confuse people if we put the G in there. Let's just imply it.
Richie Jackson
We leave the Kanye song on, or what do we do?
Tim Pool
Hallelujah.
Ian Crossland
I like that they're talking about genetics and sexuality and they're making her look sexy because we need genetic replication right now as a species. So getting people horny is if I'm fine with that.
Jason Ellis
So they.
Tim Pool
They just released this. And let's play this video. Hi, I'm Sydney Sweeney, and I'm from Spokane, Washington. I can work as a local hire as well, though. And I am available for the American Eagle jeans campaign shoot.
Richie Jackson
Profile and hands, please.
Tim Pool
Is that it?
Jason Ellis
And those jeans suck.
Tim Pool
Thanks. They do. Are those the actual jeans?
Michael Malice
What do you got against white people?
Tim Pool
No. Hey, those look like jinkos.
Jason Ellis
Those are a thing now.
Tim Pool
Really?
Jason Ellis
Yeah. My girlfriend is younger, and she. I. I try to make her not wear those when I'm around her, but it's a thing.
Ian Crossland
Too flowy.
Jason Ellis
It's a thing when you're hot. You wear bigger jeans now. And I'm like, why are you doing that? Like, oh, yeah.
Ian Crossland
It doesn't show the contour of the body as much.
Jason Ellis
I don't know why I look. I. Each to their own. We go through phases, but my. My chick is hot, and I'm like, wear tight jeans. I don't care if someone else is looking. I'm looking. And your baggy ones, it's just like, you look like you got pajamas on.
Michael Malice
Does she have any say in how you dress?
Jason Ellis
She could. Yeah, for sure. If she has, she recommended things, so I don't really have to worry about that.
Michael Malice
That's true.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. But if she was like one of those, you know, I had, like, some Crocs on or something, which I would never do, but I would respect her for bringing that up.
Michael Malice
The Crocs stay on.
Jason Ellis
They would. No, they don't. I will never be on, ever. I will never wear those.
Ian Crossland
What are your shoes of choice?
Jason Ellis
Nikes or Vans? Vans. To skate. Nikes. To walk around in.
Ian Crossland
Okay. I'm about to get some hiking shoes tomorrow. Any. Any.
Jason Ellis
That's. No, don't do that.
Michael Malice
Yeah, just don't do that.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Why?
Ian Crossland
Comfortable?
Jason Ellis
No, they're not.
Ian Crossland
These are.
Tim Pool
What on earth?
Ian Crossland
New balance.
Jason Ellis
I don't know. That's not. That's not hiking.
Michael Malice
And you're a beetle boot guy. You need some beetle boots.
Ian Crossland
Boots. Yeah.
Richie Jackson
I think you should go Crocs.
Tim Pool
Just high tops, circle back.
Richie Jackson
Croc.
Ian Crossland
Crocs.
Richie Jackson
Crocs. You can go in the water.
Michael Malice
Sports shoes don't work with your whole kit.
Ian Crossland
When you say don't do that, you mean don't do sports shoes with.
Jason Ellis
No, I'm saying don't do crocs.
Ian Crossland
Oh, no, no, I don't want to.
Jason Ellis
Do Crocs are bad for the. For the society.
Ian Crossland
I don't know anything about them.
Jason Ellis
They're not attractive. If you start wearing them, it's like, look, if I was gonna. If I was gonna mug people, I would obviously not do that. But if I was going to, I would. My person I would pick would be a person in crocs, because when you wear Crocs, you wear socks, and I'll punch you out of your Crocs, and then you'll have socks on, and you can't punch back because you can't punch with socks.
Ian Crossland
Socks in the Crocs.
Jason Ellis
You're better than that. And you've got to be ready to protect your mom and your sister and your girlfriend. So having crocs on means you're not ready to defend anything.
Ian Crossland
Oh, I'm the same way with neckties.
Richie Jackson
Put them in sports mode.
Tim Pool
It's not about.
Jason Ellis
You cannot put them in.
Richie Jackson
Saying sports mode.
Jason Ellis
It's not. It's no sports. Somebody tried to tell me that because I have a joke about it, and I was like, wait, Sports mode?
Richie Jackson
What?
Jason Ellis
And it's like, yeah, the little thing on the back, you flick it over. Yeah, it's in there. And, like, it's not really in there.
Richie Jackson
Oh. Oh, it's. Oh, it's sportsy. I'm like a Ferrari when I throw that thing back.
Tim Pool
Men need to have calloused feet and hands that you can protect your family from anything.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, you got to be ready.
Ian Crossland
You can pull a kid out of the fire if he ever falls in.
Jason Ellis
Look, if this. If society knows that all of us are ready, then they're less inclined to do bad stuff, you know? But if you're walking around, slouching around with your weird ass crocs and socks on, kind of Asking people like, man, you know what? I think I'm just going to mug somebody.
Ian Crossland
Andrew Huber was saying this exact. He's a neuroscientist who was saying, if you don't let your attention.
Jason Ellis
I'm basically a neuroscience. Just so you know, I'm a doctor.
Ian Crossland
He's saying, if you let your attention fall into what's easy, that you become trained to become a prey animal.
Jason Ellis
Yes. Yes. That's why I believe everybody should learn how to fight. Everybody should always stay fit. Don't eat too much crap. Like, you got to be ready at all times for the rest of your life. It's disrespectful to the people that need defense in your life, like mums, girlfriends, daughters, people like that. Kids like, you can't rob me. You can't rob my family. You touch my family, I got you. You know, same as if I'm in a train when people get mugged and people pull their phone out and film it. Not me, I'm taking you out.
Tim Pool
Do you hear that? Hear that? Story about this is a couple years ago, a woman was on a train in Philly, and a guy started raping her on the train in front of people.
Jason Ellis
And people filmed it.
Tim Pool
Yeah, that's all they did. They just pulled their phones and stood there and watched it happen.
Jason Ellis
See, I've. I've really analyzed this, and I get it because there's. I've seen some videos lately where people getting jumped on the street. And I get it. People are like, why didn't somebody jump in? I'm like, you know, if they. The person that jumps in is getting jumped, like, that's. And I don't blame a normal citizen for not jumping in. They're like, I don't want to get knocked unconscious. That's a legitimate gripe. That's scary. But if you do it enough, if we all do it enough, it will start to become normal. And the bad people will be less inclined to do stuff like that because they know instead of pulling our phones out, like, it's pretty awkward, obvious. That's what we do these days. If, like five to six people jump in and start protecting that person, then society starts to catch on.
Ian Crossland
I've seen videos of that, like in Spain or in France or something of just. You just catch a crowd. Just taking a dude out that was like violently beating a woman or something, then five guys jump him, and it's like, feels good to see people protect their. I mean, I don't advocate for. I'm not like, yay, let's go hurt people. But when someone comes, a human animal comes in, which humans are animals, and they start wreaking havoc in a society. And then the society comes in and solves the problem by subduing the guy feels good. It's like, this is what we should be doing. We should be protecting each other.
Jason Ellis
We're supposed to do. That's the thing that I don't, you know, I. I don't want to hurt anybody. I'm not into that. Like, I train. I. I fight my friends. I don't fight random people. I'm not interested in having a street fight with anybody ever. But if you are bullying somebody or beating up on. On somebody, two people against one, I'm gonna stop it. You know, I'm just gonna stop it because that's. God made me for that. You know, Like, I was built for this. So if I don't do it, I'm disrespecting God. That's how I see it. Like, if you get. If you start picking on one person, it's five people. I'm jumping in, man. And I'm not trying to hurt five people. But I am going to break it up. And if I have to break it up by hurting somebody, then I will, because I'm not going to let you get away with it.
Ian Crossland
I was thinking about how, and it's just one instance, the Chinese spy balloon that flew across North America. And people just sat there and watched this. This like, dazed poor animal make a noise about it or something.
Michael Malice
Make a noise at it.
Ian Crossland
We talked about it.
Tim Pool
I complained a whole lot.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, we talked about it as it floated over the United States snapping pictures or doing whatever.
Tim Pool
Yeah, Richie was screaming.
Ian Crossland
It was kind of. Maybe it's not so related, but. But a society of people that have become prey that are. Because they watch their TV screen and wait to be told so much.
Jason Ellis
Did you know that wasps. I saw this. I don't know where, probably TikTok, because I got problems, but beehives. Wasp will go to a beehive and one wasp will kill bees one by one. Just grab him and sting him and kill him. And bees figured out that if they swarm that wasp and group up on him, they overheat the wasp until it dies. Yeah. And they don't have. They've got no crocs on. You know what I mean? Like, they, they. That. That is like a thing where they are protecting the hive. And we, We're. We're way smarter than bees. Why don't we do that? Like, why we kind of do with.
Tim Pool
Police because the issue is the police.
Jason Ellis
Don'T get there in time and then.
Tim Pool
But the problem now is if the wasp comes in and you swarm, you'll get called racist on the Internet. You'll lose your job, you'll get fired, you'll get arrested.
Jason Ellis
Why did I. I didn't say the wasp was black. What are you doing?
Tim Pool
The wasp. I didn't say the wasp was black either. I said you'll get called racist no matter what.
Ian Crossland
If our society is more life and death like the bees and the wasps, I don't think people would complain. It's luxury of like being protected. You can.
Jason Ellis
I'm okay to be called a name if I'm saving somebody.
Ian Crossland
You know how they do it, too? They surround the wasp and then they vibrate. And the frequency they vibrate at causes makes the hate.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, it's pretty amazing, right? Because I don't feel like they know they're doing that, but they do it.
Tim Pool
They know that it kills it.
Jason Ellis
It's crazy that they figured that out. Like, I watched a video on it. I was like, yeah. And I'm pretty sure, like, first two guys that get in, they probably get hurt.
Tim Pool
They.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, they're committed to the, to the family, you know?
Tim Pool
Yup. That's what it means to be a man. Let's jump. Let's jump to this story. This is a crazy story out of. Out of Fairfax. This is ABC7. I don't know if you guys saw this one. Suspect in child abduction caught on video at Virginia mall. Involved in over 30 prior criminal cases. They say scary moments unfolded inside a Virginia mall when a man grabbed a toddler at a popular play area for children. According to Fairfax county police on Andre Caceres. Yaldin even made it to the upper level of the Fair Oaks Mall before the child's parents stopped him. Virginians for Safety President Sean Kennedy told 7News he was stunned by how quickly the abduction happened. It's striking that somebody could do this in broad daylight and no one would notice. So this they say. 7News dug into the suspect's lengthy criminal record detailing more than 30 criminal cases in Fairfax county, including a felony charges weeks before the abduction for allegedly not stopping at the scene of a car accident. He's also been charged with assault and battery of a family member and malicious wounding. But records show Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney Steve Discano declined prosecuting those two cases. This is crazy, man.
Michael Malice
I actually, this kind of relates to what you were saying earlier this story. I did almost see a child Abduction. I was in Spain, of all places, and somebody calls out a playground, like, hey, that. You know, that guy's trying to take my kid. Whatever. Then they're yelling like. Which means pedophile in Spanish, I guess. And I was like, holy. And everybody kind of was going after the guy, and he pulls out a knife. So then it becomes a standoff. But like you were saying, we actually did stuff. Like, I wasn't even communicating with these guys verbally, but we all just had to look like, all right, surround him. You know, he's pointing the knife at each of us kind of thing. Like, who's he going to choose? Cops did get there quick, and it was a great takedown. The dude would tackle them as he took the knife out.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Michael Malice
But the weird twist of this story is the guy had down syndrome, so they just called his parents, his dad came, picked him up, and took him home.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, Mental.
Tim Pool
Well, so this is. This is a crazy story. I guess what happened was the father had the kids in the play area and. And he didn't realize one of the girls had run off outside of the play area. And this dude walked up and just grabbed the kid and went right into the shop. Into the department store. Yeah, but the mom was in the department store and saw him and then confronted him, and he released the kid.
Jason Ellis
To her, and Dad's in trouble.
Tim Pool
Oh, yeah. He must be very embarrassed.
Ian Crossland
This is like a warning, John.
Jason Ellis
Like, mom saw it from the department store and dad didn't, and he was watching the kids. That is a bad look.
Tim Pool
I bet he was on his phone.
Richie Jackson
Also, dad shouldn't. Parents shouldn't have to worry about a world where there's a guy with 30 priors walking around.
Jason Ellis
I know, but you're talking about mental stability in the world that you gotta. You gotta be ready for. I know there's evil people out there, and we should stop them, but there's also, you know, life's tough, man. Sometimes people pop, and they. They're not, like, all there. Or, you know, if you're mentally, like, you know, you're a crazy person, but you're. You're. You have a guardian, and the guardian lost where you were for a second, and you pick up a kid. Like, things can happen and you should. If you've got a kid. Look, dude, I'm a dad. Like, if I'm watching a kid in the playground, you ain't getting out, dude. Yeah, Like, I'm watching you. Yeah. Like, that's. It's your baby.
Tim Pool
Yep. It's crazy to me. And I know it happens some people. It's brutal. But, like, how do you leave your kid in a car?
Richie Jackson
Oh, that's ridiculous.
Tim Pool
Yeah, that's. That. That. I don't.
Jason Ellis
Don't.
Michael Malice
Well, if you're going to the strip club, and unless.
Tim Pool
Unless it's intentional, they're just claiming it's not.
Michael Malice
It's always a bar or strip club or something as well.
Ian Crossland
I would ask to be left in the car. My mom would take shopping. I didn't want to go walk around Joann fabrics for an hour and touch fabrics. So I would be like, can I stay in the car and play on my watch? I had a watch video game one time on.
Jason Ellis
And is it locked?
Ian Crossland
No, car's off. It's locked. Windows were cracked or there were a handhold roller so I could roll them up and down if I needed. And I just.
Tim Pool
How old were you?
Ian Crossland
45 minutes. Between the age of 11 and 13.
Tim Pool
Or something about babies.
Ian Crossland
10 to 13.
Tim Pool
Okay. There are all these stories. People, like, forget their babies in the back seat and the baby dies.
Jason Ellis
Forget your.
Richie Jackson
Those are on.
Tim Pool
Dude, that's crazy.
Jason Ellis
Shouldn't be.
Ian Crossland
Apparent neglect.
Jason Ellis
It's a crime called, like, that's electric.
Richie Jackson
There's.
Jason Ellis
Unfortunately, there's a dog. I don't care. You know, dog, cat, like, baby. You don't leave them in the car. You don't forget it's your family. What are we doing here?
Richie Jackson
A lot of stories.
Tim Pool
There's.
Richie Jackson
People snap and kill their kids, and then they come up with some abstract, like, medical situation, and it's like, okay, there's a.
Tim Pool
There's one story I saw where a cop left his dog. His. In the. In his. In his suv. He, like, pulled him in front of his house, went inside, and then like. Like 45 minutes later, he realized the dog was in. The dog was dead.
Michael Malice
Cops love killing dogs, though.
Jason Ellis
They do.
Michael Malice
Tell me I'm wrong.
Tim Pool
Well, that. That'll be for tomorrow's debate on the culture war. We've got Michael Malice and Richard High. Angry cops. That'll be my claim. I'll say. You know, like, Michael Malice is no, cops are bad and Richard High's cops are good. And I'm gonna be like, my argument is just that cops like killing dogs.
Michael Malice
They certainly do. The amount I've seen. They're so trigger happy.
Richie Jackson
Ex Michael Vick. They like doing it too.
Tim Pool
So, you know, I gotta be honest. I'm joking. I don't actually think cops like killing dogs, but I have seen some videos where I really question if the cops just Wanted to kill a dog?
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Michael Malice
For real, Straight up. One of them was a Chihuahua.
Tim Pool
I've never seen that one.
Richie Jackson
That one might be justified to be fair.
Michael Malice
Yeah, it's fair.
Tim Pool
Okay.
Ian Crossland
A guy shot a Chihuahua.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Where? When?
Ian Crossland
Crazy. What happened?
Michael Malice
He was like. Well, he was actually, at first was either Chihuahua or one of those miniature poodles. What are they called?
Richie Jackson
Yeah, miniature poodle.
Ian Crossland
Toy poodle.
Michael Malice
Yeah, the annoying ones. But no, he was actually really working towards a positive, like, bringing it back to the. The home, and then he just, like, got bored and shot it.
Tim Pool
What?
Michael Malice
This is a real thing?
Tim Pool
Are you kidding?
Michael Malice
No, it's a real thing.
Ian Crossland
Was it a new app?
Tim Pool
Shot a toy poodle? Yeah.
Richie Jackson
Because he was bored.
Michael Malice
Well, it seemed.
Jason Ellis
I don't know.
Michael Malice
And he comes back and he goes, I had to dispatch it. Like, dispatch?
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Michael Malice
I don't know.
Tim Pool
No, I got to be honest. I just Google searched Cop shoots toy poodle in, like, nothing. 78,000.
Ian Crossland
Oh.
Tim Pool
Oh. 78,000.
Jason Ellis
Okay. There you go.
Richie Jackson
It's like open season on these little.
Ian Crossland
I mean, I've never trained as a cop. I imagine they're told if a dog aggresses on you, you have the right to kill it.
Tim Pool
If your small blind dog.
Michael Malice
Yeah, it was blind, too. How about that? Oh, even more reason to take it out.
Tim Pool
Here we go. In Missouri. Shot a small blind dog.
Richie Jackson
I think he's putting it out of his misery. I mean, look at that thing.
Michael Malice
There's video, too, of this.
Tim Pool
Was this the one you were talking about?
Michael Malice
Yeah, it looks like him. I recognize him.
Tim Pool
Teddy was blind and deaf.
Jason Ellis
Right. So he couldn't hear and he couldn't see. Is that the killer shot him because he thought he was coming at him?
Tim Pool
It's a little.
Michael Malice
Yeah, that's what it must have been.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Which is. Look at that dog.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
If it's coming at. You should you worry. If you worry, you shouldn't be a cop. Yeah, you can't handle that. If you can't handle that guy hand to hand, you should not be.
Michael Malice
What's his name? Teddy.
Tim Pool
To be fair, Teddy. Teddy was £13. Okay.
Jason Ellis
No. Oh. All £13. Wow.
Ian Crossland
And he might have went feral. You know, some dogs, when they're. When they're breaking. When they're breaking down in their late. Look at him aggro.
Jason Ellis
He went fattest thing ever. Dude.
Michael Malice
There's a video of it.
Tim Pool
So funny.
Ian Crossland
When dogs are suffering at the end of their life, sometimes.
Richie Jackson
Sweater on. He can't go feral.
Tim Pool
He does look a dude. That poor dog who called the cops on him. I don't pull a gun.
Ian Crossland
He pulled a gun. You know, it wasn't his fault.
Michael Malice
Eddie. No, I think.
Jason Ellis
I think they called him.
Richie Jackson
Should have complied. I don't know.
Tim Pool
How did the dog even bark at the cop without hearing or seeing him?
Jason Ellis
Oh, they can. They can sense someone.
Tim Pool
Oh, the smell, though. He smelled something.
Jason Ellis
Dog dude.
Ian Crossland
Say, did he run at his legs and bite his legs or something?
Jason Ellis
I think there's video of it. Really?
Michael Malice
I think the family might have thought it was like a fireman situation, like, come and get my lost dog. It might have been like that five.
Tim Pool
Year old she to sue. We have to do that because of the algorithm. We can't say, you know what I mean? Who was blind and deaf. A neighbor found Teddy, gave him water and put him put out a notice on Facebook seeing the dog's owner. After an hour, according to a lawsuit, she called police for help. An officer named Myron Woodson pulled up in his car, pulled on a pair of rubber gloves and ambled through the line of trees onto a wide lawn where the little dog was nosing about in the sunshine. He carried a dog snare, but he struggled to secure it. There you go. He can be heard saying, I'm not gonna let you bite me. He adds a moment later, as the dog potters about at his feet, panting and wagging its tail. Trying to help you, baby, he says. The. Oh, my God. The dog continues to amble about. It gets caught for a moment in a vine hanging from a tree. Woodson paces after it, shifting the pole to his other hand. There is a click and then a loud report of a gunshot. Five seconds later, he fires again. Had to dispatch it, he says. Whoa. Oh, my God.
Jason Ellis
More than one shot.
Tim Pool
Yes.
Jason Ellis
That dude.
Tim Pool
Yo. What?
Jason Ellis
You wounded it?
Tim Pool
And then he said had to dispatch it.
Michael Malice
I feel vindicated here. They do want to kill him.
Ian Crossland
So you call animal control is what should have happened, right?
Tim Pool
Right. Oh, man. Geez.
Jason Ellis
You gotta have training.
Michael Malice
Oh, Teddy.
Tim Pool
A little over an hour later, a tearful hunter found Woodson outside Sturgeon city hall. A windowless metallic building looks rather like a shed. I want to talk to the officer who shot my dog, he says in a video of the encounter. She's a 13 pound she a tissue. There was no need to use lethal force. There are many other tactics. Oh, you want to talk, talk, or you want me to tell you how to do the job? Woodson replies, you already did the job. There is no talking. The officer says he could not have known the dog was blind or deaf. I Don't enjoy shooting dogs. I'm not happy to shoot a dog. I got dogs myself. He said the dog might have been injured for all he knew. How was I supposed to know the dog was blind and just confused?
Jason Ellis
I got to do with shooting it. Pick it up.
Tim Pool
How did we end up on this story? We're talking about a child abduction.
Ian Crossland
Richie elucidated us to how much much cops love going after dogs.
Tim Pool
Well, because, look, I want to say it again. Look, I Google searched cop shot a toy poodle, like Richie mentioned, and there's just a bunch of different stories about cops shooting dogs.
Richie Jackson
Oh, my gosh.
Tim Pool
There's Salt. Salt Lake City. There's. What do we got here? It's her dog, Sinatra. This shouldn't have happened, Seattle.
Michael Malice
There's going to be people watching the show that it's happened to.
Ian Crossland
I know. I don't want to make.
Tim Pool
Is there a scientific study on. Look at this. University of New Hampshire. More than just collateral damage. Pet shootings by police. You know, I'm starting to think the activists got it wrong with blm. It's dog lives, man. Yeah, Those cops are going around killing unarmed dogs.
Ian Crossland
The term pet, though, that's interesting, because is it. Is it domesticated? Did you train it properly? Because an untrained, like, big dog is so dangerous.
Richie Jackson
Oh, yeah. You got to dispatch, though.
Michael Malice
I'm not talking about the baby eaters. Yeah, like, that's a whole different thing.
Ian Crossland
Like a German shepherd. Then they say the pit bull. What are you guys thoughts on pit bulls in general?
Tim Pool
Do you think that the gnome.
Michael Malice
Really sweet ones. And I've known nightmares.
Richie Jackson
Phantom ban them.
Ian Crossland
You think so?
Tim Pool
Ban them. Why?
Ian Crossland
And the breeding.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, because it's like they commit, what, 60, 70% of fatal dog attacks and they're 3, 4% of the dog population. It's just like, really? They're bred to kill. Okay, maybe you don't have the ban, but haven't been like, selective breeding. Like, you need to have, like, some permit or something.
Michael Malice
I'm ambivalent, man. You know, there's a big pit bull community that's going to come after you now.
Richie Jackson
Like, that's fine because they can't argue with data. They have, like, vibes. They want data.
Jason Ellis
So I had a friend. You don't on my podcast, a girl, she was a model, and she was staying at her auntie's house who had a pit bull, and she knew the people. And she was in the kitchen grabbing a plate or something, and she turned around, the dog jumped up at the same Time bit her front lip off.
Tim Pool
Whoa.
Jason Ellis
And she had to get like, they, they. The dog took the lip and then she got a skin graft thing. So she has like this weird top lip thing.
Michael Malice
Oh, did she skate? Yeah, yeah, I've seen her on Instagram.
Jason Ellis
Oh, that's really cool chick. And she's really. She's very pretty. And she's got a very noticeable top lip now from this incident. And when she came on my show and talked about it, she talked about what kind of dog it was. And people attacked me for attacking pit bulls. And I was like, we didn't attack a pit bull. We were just telling the story. And the lady, the girl never said anything bad about pit bulls, but pit bull owners attacked both of us for telling the story. And. And I was like, I don't see, like, you. I think you're a little over the top on this one.
Michael Malice
Also, my friend's top.
Tim Pool
What was her name?
Jason Ellis
Oh, man.
Tim Pool
Is it Brooke?
Jason Ellis
Yeah, Yeah.
Tim Pool
I just googled the story.
Jason Ellis
She. She's a. She's still a model. Like, she still does stuff. She did, like, skate. She does, like skateboarding. She rips at skating, too. Here's super happy. Like a good, spirited person. And to go through such a traumatic.
Michael Malice
Some bastard dog.
Tim Pool
This is the. This is the story from cbs. A dog tore off her upper lip. Five surgeries later, she's a voice for others with facial injuries. 20 years old and she was teaching English and everything was going fine.
Michael Malice
I still want to learn English.
Tim Pool
Skateboarding, modeling, all that stuff.
Jason Ellis
Yep.
Tim Pool
In November 2020, her cousin invited to take advantage of a cheap flight and visit her in Arizona. Her biggest words about a zit on her upper lip. Then something Corey still can identify triggered her cousin's pit bull. The dog launched at her face, bit down. It weighed a hundred something pounds, easily clamped its jaws on her upper lip and stayed there for nearly a minute. Yeah, she was too startled to scream. But when she finally got the dog to release its grip, she saw something fly. Fly on the wall and fall on the floor. It didn't really hit me. That was my lip. I couldn't process that. She didn't realize the true extent of the damage for several minutes. When she opened her phone selfie camera inspect what she thought might be a deep cut, she found everything from the nose down was completely ripped off. Off. Holy crap.
Jason Ellis
The photos are crazy.
Richie Jackson
That's what they're bred to do. They're not like they're. And if you want a dog bread.
Jason Ellis
To eat your face, they're bred to kill.
Richie Jackson
Like, they. They were designed to fight other dogs, and so they're just. They're bred.
Tim Pool
I mean, violence. Check it out. This is what she looks like now. Wait. It's not gonna let me look at it, but you can see right there. I don't know if I can zoom in or whatever.
Ian Crossland
What a story.
Tim Pool
So you can see she's still got. Like, it's all right, you know, like, they did good work to get that back to normal.
Jason Ellis
It's noticeable, but it's still. She's just such a. A good spirited person that.
Tim Pool
Yo, that's crazy, man.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So what. What are we saying? We're saying pit bulls shouldn't be allowed.
Ian Crossland
Selectively bred out of existence.
Michael Malice
Saying she didn't speak ill of the dog at all. She was just like, it's a thing that happened.
Tim Pool
Yeah, bro. Dude, there was. There's a story of some lady who was feeding. She was like, feeding her neighbor's pit bulls or like, her friends pit bulls. And her friend was like, hey, can you feed my dog? She's like, sharon. She went over and she had things of food, and she went outside and the dog just mauled her to death. Yeah, they just jumped on her and just ripped her to shreds and killed her. And it was like, why would they do that? No idea.
Richie Jackson
There's so many dogs that have a propensity for violence that can be defensed dogs.
Tim Pool
I gotta tell you, I had a moment. We were in. We were in Martinsburg, and some people had a pitbull off the leash running around, and I was like, quickest way to get me to draw is like, that pitbull was running up to me and my wife, and I'm like, bro, I'm not letting a pitbull run up to me for any reason. Because the problem is, I'm not. I'm not saying that somebody owns a pit bull and got in their backyard or whatever. I got no business. That's fine just as long as it's controlled. But the dog might be running up to me because it feels like I'm threatening their family. And that's a. That's a triggering reason to go make that pit bull go nuts. And then I got to worry about my family. So keep your pit bulls on a leash, bro.
Ian Crossland
How did you handle that one?
Tim Pool
I just took a defensive posture and stood still. And then the dog came up, sniffed. I went to my car, and then it ran off. And I was like.
Jason Ellis
Because most times they don't have any bad intentions. But one thing I've heard a dog to be violent. That's why it's fine.
Tim Pool
Not pit bulls, though.
Michael Malice
But I've heard that they get addicted.
Jason Ellis
I don't think so.
Richie Jackson
They're genetically.
Jason Ellis
I think that if a pit bull. A lot of people that have pit bulls, because I've been to the pound, there's a lot of pit bulls in the pound because people want to be tough. They want to have a cool dog. Take a photo, look how tough I am on Instagram. And then they don't know how to take care of it because they're idiots. And then that dog is. Has mental issues. It's been treated poorly, it's been neglected. And this, it is a monster. It has. It's built in steroids. It's a jacked beast. But if it's the same as. Look, I got. I had a Chihuahua. If you poked that chihuahua, he would bite you. Because he came from the streets. He got left on the streets and I rescued him. It's just he's like £5 and he's not £100. The same rules apply if you, if you treat a dog poorly, if you treat a human poorly, it will be a dangerous person when it's late, when it's older, it's the same rules apply with the dog. It's just this particular breed, if it does go rogue, it's gonna kill some.
Tim Pool
So. So here are the stats. Pitbull attribution through claims 60 to 60, 68% of fatal and serious injuries. DNA verified 20 to 30, 25 to 30% are genetically verified. Pitbull bites and pit bulls are 6% of the dog population.
Ian Crossland
So you said people claim 60 to 65% of claims are that this is from a pit bull. And so 30 is verified by genetic recorded.
Tim Pool
It's about 60 to 68, I think was the number.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
60 to 68% of reported serious or fatal bites are pit bulls.
Jason Ellis
Wow. Those dogs are those kind of people.
Richie Jackson
Yes.
Jason Ellis
You know, like you wanna. It's an image. A lot of people get these dogs because they think they're a badass. Look at my badass dog. And they're not friendly to animals. They're not like pet friendly people.
Tim Pool
A lot.
Jason Ellis
Most people. A lot of people get pets and don't take care of them or throw them away. Like that's why the pound is packed. Because people think they want a dog, but they're not prepared to actually take care of the dog. Same rules apply with children. So the terrible.
Tim Pool
The breed was created for bull baiting and Then baiting bowl baiting. Between the 1500 and 1800s, pit bulls were bred specific for the bloody sport of bull baiting, where dogs attacked bulls for entertainment. It was banned in 1835. After that they were used for dog fighting. After that they became work and companionship, general pets.
Ian Crossland
Where did they get first created?
Tim Pool
Does it say England?
Ian Crossland
Yeah, England. Like, like a crossbreed of a.
Richie Jackson
That's where like all the bulldog.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, pit bull.
Tim Pool
I mean, England, Ireland and Scotland in the early 19.
Richie Jackson
You have to think like that's the origin is what the pit bull, it's designed to kill bulls. And like a golden retriever, it's designed to retrieve a foul without crushing its. Like you could put an egg in a golden retriever.
Ian Crossland
Oh, that's why they're so gentle. Yeah, they're babies head.
Richie Jackson
And so it's like if you, if you had a golden retriever and you mistreated it or treated it poorly, it would probably still turn out to be a, a fairly decent dog. And if you had a pit bull and you mistreated it or whatever, it's going to kill you. I asked differences too.
Tim Pool
Do pit bulls kill more? Yes. Pit bulls are involved in more fatal attacks than any other breed.
Ian Crossland
It's just not a coincidence. It's not purely environmental. It does have to do with genetics that are passed down from the parents. That's how humans are too. It's a touchy conversation, but that's just the way animals are built.
Tim Pool
And so to your point, the argument they make is you, you are correct in that for a lot of these attacks, it's. It's people who have abused the dogs. The dogs are poorly social. Socialized. However, in that capacity, the dogs were specifically bred to have high strength and powerful jaws. So if you get a poodle that's screwed up and a pill, it's screwed up, the poodle, no one cares.
Jason Ellis
It's like I said with the Chihuahua.
Tim Pool
Right. Nobody cares. The chihuahuas are nasty.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Like my chihuahua that I had for a very long time. I. No, I wouldn't let a kid go near it.
Richie Jackson
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
Because he, he didn't trust kids. And his reaction to being scared was he would attack. It was just he had like three teeth left in his head by the time he was done. So he didn't do that much damage, but he had bad intentions.
Michael Malice
It's probably true of all animals. Like they say, what is a hundred percent of human fatalities by killer whales were in captivity.
Jason Ellis
Right.
Michael Malice
Nobody, nobody's ever been killed in the wild by a Killer whale. That's the exact same thing.
Jason Ellis
Same with horses, dude. Like, you treat a horse poorly, and then you just some new person shows up and starts walking around the back of it. It's probably a bad idea.
Tim Pool
That was. That was the first lesson I got when I went to my friend's stable. She was like, I'm introducing my horses. Don't be a dick. They'll kill you. And I was like, wow.
Michael Malice
One kick.
Jason Ellis
Well, that's your horse. Like, I'm my one. My best friend is a horse, but he is also 1200 pounds. Like, if he. If he wanted to, he could do stuff to anybody.
Ian Crossland
Have.
Tim Pool
You know, they're like, hey, look, man, you give me the oats, we cool.
Ian Crossland
While you're riding the horse. I've heard that. Does your heartbeat synchronize with their heartbeat?
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Wow.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. I can talk to my horse without saying words. He can hear me through.
Ian Crossland
Oh, awesome.
Jason Ellis
You can laugh at that if you want, because I was like, that's a lie. And then I kept trying it, and every now and then I would say, come over here. When he'd walk on the other side of the barn, and he'd come over, and I'm like, that was just a coincidence. And I do it all the time, and it keeps happening.
Richie Jackson
Wow.
Tim Pool
And I'm like, It's like Avatar, it is, dude.
Jason Ellis
Horses are. Horses change my mind about the way I treat people. Like, because horses don't talk, but you get a feeling if this person's a good person or a bad person. And that's how horses judge everything. Like, the way you're. What you're thinking, the. What your mood is. They know. They'll. They'll know if you've got bad intentions, you're in a bad mood. If you're really sad, horses will comfort you. If you're in a time of stress, their time of need, they will know it.
Tim Pool
I've heard that. And you got to consider that they're big and they got big brains.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. And big hearts.
Tim Pool
Yeah. And they. They. They. They can tell. They can see you. They can see your expressions. They can see how you sound. There's a. There's one funny story. This is a really, really common story, but it was. I can't remember who posted this is somebody I follow on. On X said they were having a hard time mounting their horse. And so finally, the horse just made a sound of annoyance and then kneeled down.
Jason Ellis
Wow.
Tim Pool
Like, the horse was like, oh, my God, you suck. And then, like, get on.
Jason Ellis
I seen a video of the horse. He puts his foot up for the little girl, like. Like a nine year old puts his foot up and then pushes her up to get on. On his back.
Tim Pool
You know, I gotta. I gotta be honest. Like, imagine there were these little fuzzy dudes, like raccoons or something, that just ran around and were harmless, and they'd run up to you and like pull on your. Your pants and then climb up on your back and just ride around on you. Humans would be totally down with it.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, yeah.
Tim Pool
You'd be like, this is hilarious.
Ian Crossland
Monkeys didn't steal your. I'd be down.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
But if that little. That little raccoon was kind of an. And you didn't like him, you'd kick him off. You would.
Ian Crossland
So our d. Or I was gonna say deer. That's funny. Are horses the largest domesticated land mammal?
Jason Ellis
No.
Ian Crossland
Off the top of my head. What else is bigger? No, well, domesticated, yeah, I guess we domesticated bulls.
Jason Ellis
Domesticated, yes.
Ian Crossland
But horses are huge.
Jason Ellis
Are they?
Tim Pool
Yes.
Jason Ellis
You say they don't exist in the wild.
Tim Pool
Like, what is. Let me ask you, what is the proper name of the animal for?
Jason Ellis
What? What do you mean?
Michael Malice
Escalax.
Jason Ellis
Oh, oh, the. Yeah, yeah, like the scientific name.
Tim Pool
No, no, it's just like, so I can point to a chicken and call it a chicken. Yeah, A bull or a cow. What are they?
Jason Ellis
I don't know.
Tim Pool
Some might say cattle perhaps.
Jason Ellis
Okay, maybe.
Tim Pool
But cattle refers to the group, you know, so, yeah, bovine, perhaps. It. The point is colloquial. Colloquially in English, we don't call them by their animal name. We call them just bulls or cows. Yeah, it's weird.
Jason Ellis
I think horses have been with us for so long. That's another thing that's.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, it's so sad.
Jason Ellis
We've always been connected to horses.
Tim Pool
Like, yeah, ungulates. Uncula just means like hoofed mammal.
Ian Crossland
Like, I wonder.
Jason Ellis
Oh, wow.
Ian Crossland
Did we like, breed them to be what they are today? I. These are just questions can't be answered.
Richie Jackson
Well, it's just sad that we call dogs our best friends, but, like, horses went to war with us.
Tim Pool
Nah, dogs are better.
Ian Crossland
I'm wondering because people have the access to the horses as much.
Tim Pool
You guys know the dog story, right?
Ian Crossland
Which one?
Tim Pool
How dogs got domesticated. It's one of my favorite little bit, my favorite kindergarten factoids. So there's something called flight time, and that is the distance between an animal, a human, that a human can get to an animal. So the flight time just means 10 meters, 15 meters. And so for pigeons, for Instance, the flight time right now for a pigeon is literally like one foot. You can walk up to a pigeon.
Jason Ellis
And it won't move.
Tim Pool
You could even swing your foot and it'll just hop. And they don't care about you because humans leave them alone. So you go back 40, 000 years or whatever, and there are wolves and they're humans. These, the wolf. Wolves that had a lower flight time to humans and were less aggressive were more likely to survive because the humans would leave behind bones and refuse they were together. Well, at first, the wolves would just come and scavenge the camp after the humans left. If the humans tolerated the wolves, the humans were more likely to survive because the wolves would piss all around the camp and bears and other predators would stay away. You do that for 10,000 years. And eventually they were proto dogs, they called them, walking through the human camps. So long as they weren't aggressive towards humans, humans didn't care.
Ian Crossland
I was thinking how they like.
Tim Pool
Oh, the best part is at some point the humans noticed that the wolf pack, the proto dogs, started sniffing and running off, and they said, let's follow them. And then they found them tracking elk or something. And so then they threw spears at it, killed it. Everybody got to eat. And this created the evolutionary pressure where dogs and humans were naturally selected together to survive.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Now here's the best part. How did cats get domesticated?
Jason Ellis
Yeah, I know about this.
Tim Pool
They're an invasive species we tolerate.
Jason Ellis
Right. But they started to hang out in. In like. Was it in Native Americans, I think.
Michael Malice
Kill the rodents, you fools.
Tim Pool
That's. That. That's incorrect. Really. Terriers were bred to kill rodents. Cats we just tolerate because we find them to be funny.
Michael Malice
But he says a lot of crazy stuff.
Tim Pool
This is why. Sorry, just. This is why my dad told me. She's a firefighter. He says, do you know what happens if there's a fire and the family has a dog? They'll find the dog scratching its paws, bloody, trying to break the door down to save the family. Do you know what happens with the cat when there's the fire?
Jason Ellis
He gets out of there.
Tim Pool
We haven't figured it out because we.
Jason Ellis
Never find the cat because he has the capability. The cats, here's another one, don't have the capability.
Tim Pool
You know what happens when someone who owns a dog dies of old age or natural causes in their home?
Jason Ellis
They eat it.
Tim Pool
We all know this dog will die.
Jason Ellis
Dogs have eaten people that have died as well. Typically, you're gonna say cats eat.
Tim Pool
Typically, the dogs are found dead of Dehydration. Next to their owner. Cats just eat the body.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Nothing personal, man. Survival. I was thinking about how I'd eat you too if I was alive.
Ian Crossland
How the dogs carry sticks and they love carrying sticks. And that at some point in the past we must have. We must have. Either they watched us collect firewood. That's basically what they're collecting. Firewood is what I think that comes from. And we, we picked the ones that love to go get the firewood for us so much. Maybe they watched us, okay. We're like mimicking us, bringing the stuff. Sticks back. And the ones that really loved the sticks we would breed more of.
Michael Malice
Never made the firewood connection.
Ian Crossland
Yesterday I thought of it. I watched a video of dogs carrying sticks. I'm like, oh, yeah, I drag sticks.
Jason Ellis
Out of the woods. Thing you came up with.
Ian Crossland
I just thought of it yesterday.
Jason Ellis
You know what?
Tim Pool
You know, I think you're wrong. I think I've seen those videos where the dog carries the beer to the guy.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And beer is what created civilization. So I think it was actually beer. They were like, what do we need dogs for? Watch this. Hey, beer. And the dog gets it. And they're like, yo, before we move.
Michael Malice
On, I do just want to say like, like you made the claim that horses can't talk, but they, I think back in the day they, they used to. Right?
Jason Ellis
I mean, speak.
Michael Malice
Well, there was this black. No, there was this black and white show. I remember it. It was.
Jason Ellis
Mr. Ed.
Ian Crossland
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
You didn't need to go there. We could have just moved on to the next subject.
Ian Crossland
Let's move on, Wilbur.
Tim Pool
Let's. Let's jump to the start of the New York Times. Yo. This is a crazy story. Jury says Tesla was partly to blame for fatal crash. Lawyers for the family of a woman struck and killed by a Tesla sedan in 2019 argued the company's autopilot software should have avoided the crash. A Florida jury on Friday found that flaws in Tesla's self driving software were partly to blame for a crash that killed a 22 year old woman in 2019 and severely injured her boyfriend. The jury verdict, if upheld on appeal, would require Tesla to pay as much as $243 million in punitive and compensatory damages to the parents of the woman and to her boyfriend. The jury found that Tesla bore 33% responsibility for the crash and blamed the driver, George Brian McGee, for the remainder. Mr. McGee had previously settled with the family for an undisclosed sum. Testified, would appeal. This is crazy. Tesla said it expected the damages to be reduced on appeal. This decision has come just after Tesla began limited testing of autonomous taxis. I'm going to tell you this, in urban environments, I am very, very confident in my Tesla. But in Charlestown, the most annoying thing is there's a big old no turn on red sign. I gotta be honest. Actually, you know, my opinion is changing. I. I remember it was not even that long ago me and, me and Phil were talking about how much we really trusted the autopilot. And it's great. You could turn it on, you go. But I gotta tell you, recently on the backcountry roads, it drives in the middle of the road because it's scared of the trees and everything. The sensors are detecting, it's fine. So you're going up a hill and it tries to go on the other lane, and I'm like, I will die. So I have to jerk the steering wheel back. But in Charlestown, there are two things it always does. Big old no turn on red sign. It keeps trying to turn. I got to stop it. And then ask if a thing pops up, like, what's wrong? And I'm like, bro, you can't turn on red here. See the sign? The other thing is it on Main street, there's a left turn lane. It's trying to go straight. It always goes in the turn lane. And I'm like, we're going to get hit by someone on the right if you go straight from here.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So it doesn't understand this. I don't know how they think they're going to get away with running this auto taxi thing based on the problems I've already hit.
Michael Malice
I don't know how Mr. McGee thought he was going to get away with it. He's told me several times he doesn't like my kind because I was a bit too leisurely.
Tim Pool
I'm gonna, I'm gonna tell you guys. They, you know, people were doing for a long time with these Teslas, especially back in like 2019. The way auto drive worked is you had to have weight on the steering wheel. It required you to keep your hands on the steering wheel. And if it didn't, there was no weight detected. It would turn off. So people would put. They would buy these weights you could clip onto the steering wheel. And here's the. It gets better. So Tesla changed it so there's a camera watching you as you drive. Now all Teslas, creepy. And it watches your eyes, and if you look down, it starts flashing.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So people bought glasses with fake eyes on them, like Homer Simpson. And you Just.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, dude, just drive, man. That is so, like, you just think you're so lucky, don't you? Like, let me figure out a way to just do my best to let the robot drive the car down the road. Like, like just, how about just drive?
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
I think it's because I'm old school. I think, like, I can tell, like, in the end it's going to be this thing where we all get in cars or, or drones and get, you know, we just look at our phone while we're going to one place to the other. And if you want to use a real car, it's the same as horses. Like, horses used to take us everywhere. Now we go to special places to use horses. So I think in the future, because I have a, I have a stick. Like, I have, I, I shift gears, I have a clutch. Like, that's how old school I am. I, I hate battery cars. I like burnouts. I have to burn tires.
Tim Pool
My life, I gotta tell you, man, I'm ready to go just off the grid because my tv, I was just telling the story yesterday about how back in the day, and you remember this, you'd pull the little knob out on your TV to turn it on, and it was just instantly on channel three or whatever you needed to be on. You're like, I watch channel 32 in Chicago. You click the button, it's on. Now I turn the TV on. Takes me five minutes because it's got a boot up. It asked me five times to update. Here's my point. I don't need autopilot if you got a horse. You know why? Because horses know where home is.
Michael Malice
You can drink.
Tim Pool
So this is, this is actually a true story.
Jason Ellis
They didn't run into trade back in the day.
Tim Pool
If the, if the guy who owned the horse was sick or drunk or was passing out, the horse would run home.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And it knew how to bring you home. You didn't need to press a button or click anything. It's just the horse.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Now we get these cars and I got to do the work. You stepped backwards.
Richie Jackson
Yeah.
Ian Crossland
Because you can't let it drive you when you're drunk. Is it still.
Tim Pool
Oh, you can.
Ian Crossland
That's a funny question because you're supposed to be partly driving it. I guess that makes sense. If you're a passenger, though, you know, you're allowed to be a drunk passenger in a car.
Tim Pool
You are. So I, I, I, I'm sure someone out there has bought a mannequin and, and sat in the city.
Ian Crossland
So, Dan, I was, I Mentioned this before the show, too. I just feel like we're in the age of exploration, experimentation with these. It's gonna be a lot of deaths. A lot of people getting veered off the road because kids run into the street or a basketball falls in or the camera malfunctions. And it's like, we are the testing grounds right now. You are the ones.
Jason Ellis
It's lazy. It's the same thing with, like, people, you know? Like, I. I'm trained. I'm ready to protect somebody. I'm also ready to protect myself. You know? Like, you're just sitting back, letting everybody else take care of it. I ain't going out like that. You know what I mean? Like, a vending machine is never gonna kill me, dude. Apparently, they kill more people than sharks, but it ain't gonna kill me. Guess what? Also, sharks not gonna kill me, dude. I see it. I'm going down there. I'm gonna poke it in the gills. I'm gonna put up a fire. I'm not just gonna panic and swim away and give you my feet.
Ian Crossland
Apparently, their nose is, like, electromagnetically sensitive. And if you jack.
Jason Ellis
I thought about it, dude.
Tim Pool
Act check. Correct. Yes. Vending machines kill more humans than sharks.
Ian Crossland
By falling on them, I assume.
Jason Ellis
I know. That's what I thought when I heard that. I heard this a long time ago, and I was like, how? But then I thought, you go. You try to bang it and tip it to get stuff out, and then it falls on you. You're such a dumbass friend. Why would you do that, man? But, like, driving. Like, if you drive a car, drive the car, you know?
Tim Pool
So here's another thing, too. Have you guys seen the automatic McDonald's? No.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Because they got an automatic Taco Bell now on. On Melrose next to my boxing gym.
Tim Pool
But, like, fully automated.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Because there's, like, an atmosphere. It's like his little corner place where.
Tim Pool
It'S like an arm. Scoops the meat and everything.
Jason Ellis
You just press the button, and it comes out the slot.
Tim Pool
Oh, so. So. So I'm not sure what.
Jason Ellis
I haven't got in there because I.
Tim Pool
Don'T eat so crap in Chicago that I. I found a vending machine that had White Castle in it.
Ian Crossland
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And it would. It would cook the. Cook the burgers and then open it and slide out, like, two fresh White Castle burgers. And they're delicious.
Jason Ellis
Fresh, huh?
Tim Pool
And fresh. Well, actually, they're from. They're from that day. Day in, like, at, like, noon, someone came in and put them all in, and then by eight they throw them all out or something like that.
Jason Ellis
Okay.
Tim Pool
There's also a pizza vending machine. I can't remember where it is. Have you seen this?
Richie Jackson
We had one at my university and it lit on fire.
Tim Pool
I'm not talking about a vending machine. Check it out. There's a McDonald's where you order by kiosk and then two big arms come down and then it like grabs the burger and then like puts it on the. On the thing. How long until we get a lawsuit where someone goes to a restaurant and orders food and as like the scooper is coming to like get the. Get the mayonnaise. It like accidentally swipes peanut butter and and then puts it on the burger without noticing. And then the person bites and goes.
Jason Ellis
Oh, the peanut allergy thing.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, the.
Jason Ellis
The legal supposed to be here.
Ian Crossland
Anyway, the issues with the legality is like in a car accident it's always on the driver. So now it's on the company that owns the machines. And it seems to be the same with the McDonald's. It would be on the employee that poisoned the food, not the corporation. But now it's going to be liabilities on the corporation. Dude, yesterday I started thinking we're going to see our first AI corporation. Now it's about to happen where probably already did AI runs the corporation. People will invest in it and you'll use that money to pay people to do tasks. And it's going to be real fast. One of the biggest corporations on earth.
Tim Pool
That's a good idea. I'm going to make that right.
Ian Crossland
We need to need to develop corporate governance structure legitimately with Elon on X because that's what he wants to do.
Tim Pool
I'm going to tell you something right now. It is theoretically possible with any one of these LLM APIs to write a script or probably not a script, but a program that will continually prompt the. The LLM to give it tasks to file paperwork online. You should very easily be able to create a program that starts a business.
Ian Crossland
And then who owns it? I was like. Because whoever built the AI can't own that corporation. It's AI run AI owned. It would be community. It would all be stock. That would just people.
Tim Pool
Somebody has to file maybe a gov.
Michael Malice
McDonald's. What's it Ronald McDonald.
Ian Crossland
We'll file it in the guys. Michael Mouse would be very happy that you.
Michael Malice
Speaking of clowns.
Tim Pool
Just, just. Oh real quick. I was gonna say you mentioned I.
Michael Malice
Came across because I saw a video.
Jason Ellis
As you pointed at me.
Michael Malice
I saw a video of you Mercilessly beating one.
Jason Ellis
Beating a clown?
Tim Pool
Yes. Did you know Simon Woodstock?
Jason Ellis
Oh, he. He challenged me to a fight.
Michael Malice
Okay, cool. That's where I was going. You messed that up. I was not pointing at you, calling you a clown.
Tim Pool
Oh, I thought that's where I was going. I was like, oh, I better intervene here.
Michael Malice
I really trapped myself.
Tim Pool
No, I was just going to say that when my wife was pregnant, I was constantly reminding her to eat peanut butter.
Ian Crossland
Is it really good for pregnant people?
Tim Pool
No, it's because I don't want my baby to be allergic to peanuts based. And then, you know, because that's what they. They say. One of the things is, it might be that a mother didn't have any exposure to peanuts or something like that. Oh, wow. We don't. We don't know for sure. But then when she was born, I was like, we should make sure we do allergy tests, because you don't want. You don't want to find out without, like, finding out the hard way is not good. But the good news is she is not at all.
Ian Crossland
Oh, I love peanuts.
Jason Ellis
You know.
Tim Pool
You know what the worst thing in the world is? The steakhouse at the casino, Charlestown got rid of their peanut butter and jelly brussels sprouts. Oh, I like those.
Ian Crossland
Those were good.
Richie Jackson
Sonic for a while, had the peanut butter cheeseburger.
Tim Pool
I'm. I'm right. I was. I was thinking this is the time to protest. We're gonna do it. We're gonna. We're gonna get everybody we can to stand out in front of that steakhouse and demand they bring back the peanut butter and jelly Brussels.
Ian Crossland
Maybe they can raise the price by 20 and add a really good peanut butter. The best.
Tim Pool
You have this look on your face, bro, but I'm telling you, peanut butter and jelly Brussels sprouts.
Jason Ellis
You're analyzing my face about that?
Tim Pool
Yeah. You look like you don't believe me.
Jason Ellis
But I do believe you. I'm just contemplating whether I like it or not. I don't really. Brussel sprouts are not my favorite thing.
Tim Pool
Fried in butter.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. But you know what's better? Just fry the butter and put peanut butter and jelly on it. Why you gotta bring Brussels sprouts into this? Like, that's the only reason they taste good. It's because of everything else that on it.
Tim Pool
That's true.
Richie Jackson
It's long now.
Tim Pool
I don't want to eat them. They put bacon on them, and I'm like, I just. Give me the bacon.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, that's pretty good.
Tim Pool
Yeah. To be fair, it's like it's a mass that you can chew on as you taste.
Ian Crossland
It's really like a minty almost like hops. Like hops. You eat them raw off the vine. They're like hops.
Jason Ellis
Wait, you ate Brussels sprouts?
Tim Pool
I used to buy them.
Ian Crossland
Like a big thing of them, and there's all these balls, and you just. It sits there for a week and you just pull one off and chew on it.
Tim Pool
It's. He's weird.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, like cabbage, kind of also. Ew.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, it's just health. Just medicine. I treat it like medicine.
Jason Ellis
Okay, well, that I. I agree to that because I definitely eat things where I'm just doing it to survive. I don't eat it because it tastes good. But the more you get into that, the more you don't need ridiculous food. You know, like when you get. I'm older, man. Like when it's like when you're. You're 20 and you drink and you're 50 and you drink. This hangover is like a level where you're like, holy cow, man. I don't know if I'm gonna make it through the day now. It's the same with food. Like, if I ate Taco Bell, I don't know if I can do, like, anything for the rest of the day.
Tim Pool
Did you just.
Michael Malice
It does take you a while.
Jason Ellis
You guys eat terribly.
Ian Crossland
I get it. In your early life, I'm all health food. In your early life, you just fuck it. Balls to the wall, rock star lifestyle. And then at what point, or I'm assuming that's what you did with food and drugs or life, I don't know, it tapered.
Jason Ellis
I mean, I baby stepped it, you know, like hard drugs. I quit when my first daughter was born. And then I drank and smoked weed constantly. And I slept, you know, I tried to stop a bunch of times.
Michael Malice
Tell me about Kratom.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, dude, that's the worst thing.
Michael Malice
I tried it and nothing happened.
Jason Ellis
Really.
Michael Malice
Nothing. So I want to know, like, what. What's it actually.
Jason Ellis
Oh, there's two different kinds. So just because I know this triggers people, because I. I've talked. Talked about it a lot, and people get mad because they think I'm trying to take kratom away from them, but I'm not. It's same. The same as drinking. You can drink your life away. You can also drink Kratom and drink your life away. There's. There's a responsible way to do it also. There's Kratom and then there's synthetic Kratom. Which is now apparently stronger than oxys.
Michael Malice
Ah, I see.
Jason Ellis
And you can get those at a gas station. Your kids can get that. People can get that and not realize what they've just got themselves into. That's the thing that I'm speaking about. I just think that when people. When I bring up Kratom, a lot of people go, what is that? And I go, right, that's dangerous. Because if you're at a gas station, you're at a smoke shop, and they're like, hey, man, try this. Pretty cool. It relaxes you a little bit. That's how I got into it. I got off it. I got sponsored by it. They said it was a great after workout drink.
Michael Malice
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
And I was like, if you're a bit sore after training hard, it does make you feel kind of relaxed. So does heroin. And when I got off it, because I got really into it, I started doing like seven, eight shots a day. And I was like, I feel like I'm hungover in the morning. So I would have one. Sorry. At night. So I would have one in the morning. And I was like, it's getting out of control. I think I'm addicted to it. And when I try to stop, that's when I realized, because I've been to rehab a couple times for certain drugs. When I got to this one, it was the hardest one that I had to kick. I got an Airbnb for four days and I was shaking back and forth by myself. Didn't eat, didn't sleep. And in the end, on the fourth day, I started to have like a little bit of a seizure of sorts. Wow. And my manager was about to call an ambulance and I was. I had sweatpants on and I was sweating and cold and my hands were locking up. I couldn't open my hands off my chest, so I hit my head on the ground to concuss myself to get my hands to unlock. And then I smoked weed the last time, relaxed me enough to get past that day. And then the next day I was like, you know what? That was so embarrassing because I was 50 when this happened, that I was like, that's it. I'm done with everything. That's when I quit everything. And I go to meetings. I'm in the. In the program.
Tim Pool
I'm reading about it now. It causes withdrawal symptoms similar to mild opioids.
Jason Ellis
It's an opioid. It blocks your opioid receptors or whatever it is. But there's an H7 or something I believe it's called, that is way stronger and they don't say which one is which on the bottle. So, like, you can get it. And you might get the one where you're. I mean, dude, you know, like, you start abusing painkillers. I feel like most of us know when we're doing that. If you get this thing at the store where you think you're like, it's like an herbal. It's like taking a little gummy. It's not. And I. That's my war on that particular drug.
Michael Malice
Well, thank you.
Jason Ellis
I just want people to know that. Watch it. Like, don't just think that that's like some little thing you get loose on and. And everything's going to be fine in the morning. You could end up like. Like, I. I go to meetings. People have lost their lives to this stuff. People have, like, so they're still alive people. You can die from it also, but people just have become so addicted to it that they lose a job, they lose their careers, they lose their wife, they lose their kids. Like, I know. I know thousands of people because I talk about. I get messages every day about it, about how many people have lost this and lost that. It's a real epidemic. And I don't think that many people talk about it because I've noticed when you do, people get mad at me and I'm like, I'm. I'm just trying to help, man. I'm not like. Like, you're an idiot or anything. I'm just like, did. If you don't know. I. I want people to.
Ian Crossland
Yeah. I think people want this mild because if it's in the right dose, like you said, it gives a mild sedative for. They don't want that to get made illegal.
Jason Ellis
Get off pain, addiction, or you've got like a real. Like a serious back pain or something. And you. And you don't want to take real opioids. You can take this or help with sleep or focus. You can do like some tablespoons of the powder and it can help with stuff. But if you start abusing it, it's the same as anything. But I don't think people really talk about it.
Michael Malice
It was definitely presented to me as this hip, harmless thing, which is why I did.
Jason Ellis
Right. That's no big deal. That's the general consensus. It's. It's just this hip hop thing.
Tim Pool
It's. It's mostly unregulated in the United States.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Which is why it's.
Tim Pool
Sorry, but it's illegal in Wisconsin, Illinois, I don't know. My Southern states. Which states are those? Alabama, Alabama and Arkansas.
Jason Ellis
I saw a video RFK trying to ban the synthetic one.
Ian Crossland
Okay. That. I'm okay with that road. It's the natural stuff I want to leave untouched. At the moment, I have no interest in making a new drug.
Jason Ellis
Look, I don't want to ban alcohol. Do I think alcohol is good for you? No. If you want to have a beer, have a beer, man. Some people, I'm a. I have an addictive personality. If I get into anything, I'm going to abuse it. Dude, I got one tattoo. Look at me.
Ian Crossland
How many tattoos did you get? How many times?
Jason Ellis
No, I lost count.
Tim Pool
Dude, real quick. Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Louisiana. Oh, why did I say Illinois? I'm an idiot. Indiana. Yeah. So there's actually a couple other states.
Ian Crossland
I think it's. I think I've had. I've had Kratom tea. Like in Miami, I think they served it at a restaurant.
Tim Pool
And I was like, okay, if it's.
Jason Ellis
A tea, it sounds like there's a good chance that's actual Kratom.
Ian Crossland
It numbed my mouth.
Jason Ellis
It was like pills. I read about Red recently, where the pill. They're saying that is. It's stronger than an oxy. I think that again, I can get that at the smoke shop.
Tim Pool
I'm. I'm. You know, I. There's one drug that I do, and it's caffeine. It's because I drink a coffee once a day.
Richie Jackson
Yeah.
Ian Crossland
It's psychoactive, but not hallucinogenic.
Tim Pool
I don't. I don't. I don't like any of that weird stuff.
Ian Crossland
It's not.
Tim Pool
I'm barely, like, eating most foods at this point. I'm old. I'm not.
Jason Ellis
That's how I am, dude.
Tim Pool
I'm 19 years old, and I would. Do you take a bag of Fritos at 7:11 and then you pump the chili and the cheese into it, shake it up, and eat it with the same.
Ian Crossland
I would just eat the cheese off the Cheetos. I just want powders of that cheese.
Tim Pool
I just. Scoop, scoop. It's called Frito pie. They get them at carnivals.
Ian Crossland
It's like that orange cheese on the Cheetos, man.
Jason Ellis
Each to their own, man. Look, I think because I eat so clean, when I do eat bad, it's fun, you know? Like, I had pizza with you guys today, and I was like, oh, yeah. Because I don't usually do that.
Ian Crossland
It's that sugar, that refined sucrose. I posted that. It's the most insidious drug.
Jason Ellis
Because it's not that people go a little too hard on the, on the sugar. You might be right. It isn't good for you for sure. But it's like I see people saying it's worse than cocaine. I'm like, no, dude, it's worse. Trust me.
Ian Crossland
Cocaine's more acute, but sugar is chronic in its addictiveness.
Jason Ellis
And it's, I think people that sit around doing nothing and having sugar every night, that's like, it multiplies it. If you work out all the time, you skate or you lift weights or you train in the gym, you can eat. You can eat a cake and wake up, nothing happened. Your body burns it off. It's just most of us are working all the time, driving all the time. Take, you know, we don't have time to like, do crazy exercise and sweat out a T shirt. Like, it's. It's a rare person these days that does a certain activity where their T shirt is drenched from whatever it is. Like, I do that. And if I. And now at 53, if I do that and I don't eat right and I don't stretch and I don't ice myself, I can't walk. The next day.
Ian Crossland
You soak in the tub.
Jason Ellis
I have an ice plunge.
Ian Crossland
How is it we have a sauna? Oh, really?
Jason Ellis
One thing to do it for a tick tock video. Doing it every day or a couple times a week. I hate it.
Tim Pool
Have you ever been in it? Have you ever done, like, we get nad done. We've gotten stem cells before, twice.
Jason Ellis
I've been to Bioxcel in Colombia. I've had it twice. I got a half knee reconstruction. I've been.
Tim Pool
It works.
Jason Ellis
I've broken over 50, 60 bones have been knocked out 35 times. I got dead man's ligaments. I've torn. I've got two ligaments left. Both my MCLs are, are gone. I have PCOS left.
Tim Pool
But they can regrow that, can't they?
Jason Ellis
It's not exactly like that. Stem cells doesn't regrow. It can. It reduces a lot of inflammation and it can regrow some stuff. But, like, if you snap off your mcl like I did, you can't. I had to get a dead man's MCL put in and then I got stem cells on top of it and it tightened it and grew more stuff around it, so it was more supportive. I used to be one of those guys with my shin would rattle in my knee. I would do it at parties and people would go, oh, that's Gross.
Michael Malice
You got the cadaver in there?
Jason Ellis
Yeah. You know how I got in? Kevlar.
Michael Malice
Did they tell you how the guy died?
Jason Ellis
No.
Michael Malice
Why not?
Tim Pool
I don't know.
Jason Ellis
Because I didn't ask.
Michael Malice
You wouldn't want to know.
Jason Ellis
I don't.
Michael Malice
I would want to know.
Ian Crossland
You know they can use graphene as a tether.
Tim Pool
Oh, here we go.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, they did it with mice. They severed a mouth, House's spine, and then they ran a graphene tether through the separation point and then injected. I believe it was stem cells. Or they just allowed it to regrow itself. I don't even think they used stem.
Tim Pool
Cells in that instance. This guy talks about.
Ian Crossland
So rather than putting like a dead man's ligament in, you might be able to in the future. Maybe they can use like a substrate to guide the regrowth of the. Of the ligament. But I don't know. Just a thought of thought.
Jason Ellis
What did you just say?
Ian Crossland
There's a material that they use to regrow body parts. You can never regrow these.
Tim Pool
So this dude has been obsessed his whole life since he learned about something called graphene. Graphene is. It's a. It's. What is it? It's. It's a carbon.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, Pure carbon. It's hexagonal.
Tim Pool
It's a hexagonally let a single layer atomic of. Of carbon. And it's. They say it's got these amazing. They're putting in batteries now, so the batteries. Charges. Charges faster. All I know is this guy wouldn't shut up about it. So I bought stock in a company and I made 100 grand.
Jason Ellis
Because it's working now or.
Tim Pool
No, just because, like, he wouldn't shut up about it. I was like, okay, I'm find a company that makes this. And so I bought a bunch of shares in it and a few. It's been a few years and my stock is up, you're saying?
Jason Ellis
Not right now, but in the future. I could put it in my leg and it will regrow tendons.
Ian Crossland
Possibly because it's pure carbon. Your body would synthesize it. It may be.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, possibly. And maybe that sounds good.
Tim Pool
This guy, also chemist about it, busted into my studio room like Kramer and Seinfeld telling me, you gotta buy plant Palantir. And it was at like. Was it like 30 bucks or something or.
Ian Crossland
I was at like 13 at that.
Tim Pool
$13. And I was like, ian, what are you talking about? And he's like, palantir did you got to buy stock right now? And I was like, dude, what? You're crazy. Bro, just, I'm working. He was like, okay. And that's at 150 bucks.
Ian Crossland
Here's the thing about investing. I was thinking yesterday when you guys talking about that yesterday is the ethics. Because if you just. I'm not going to invest in the company because I don't agree with their, their ethics, and then that's the company, but, you know, that's the company that's going to make money. You lose at investing. You can't make money on the stock market. You have to. Occasionally it'll align that your ethics align with the company that's going to make the money. But often it's like. And then, but at the same time, Palantir is like American spy tech and there's more global spy tech, like Chinese spy tech that we're kind of going up against for the next world war. It's going to be a spy tech war of perception. So Palantir might be our best ally. You know, like the guys that built the atom bomb, I'm glad they were American. So maybe we can make Palantir the best spy tech and actually preserve American Republicanism.
Tim Pool
I, I think the, you know, we're talking about these Tesla cars and all this other weird shit I, I think we're part of. I try not to swear. I just, it just comes out. But we've been screwing out with AI music more and more and more.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And our buddy Andy who works here, he didn't believe it. He's like, no, AI is bad. And then today he was like, dude, I started using it because Suno rolled out their latest update. Right. I'm telling you, man, it's, it's. I have these naysayers telling me, like, it'll never be human level music. No, I, I guarantee you that even the songs we put up now, the average person is going to be like, I had no idea. And I can tell you this because we've been playing some of the songs we've been working on. What we've been doing is we'll. I'll write a song on my guitar, sing it into my phone, upload it, and it will finish the whole song in 10 seconds. And then several of our guests come in and they're like, oh, who is this? And I was like, I just made it right now. And like, it's you. And I was like, I literally just uploaded this into it took me five minutes to do you. You like that? And he's talking about AI, corporations, automated fast food, restaurants, humans. It's going to be like wall E, you know, we're gonna be big and.
Ian Crossland
Fat, floating around in chairs, maybe burgers some, some people. But the one thing it'll do is reduce slave labor because the artificial intelligence will be able to craft factories that do all that rote laboratory, a lot of that rote labor for us. So the competition with China is going to be like fuck their slave labor. We got AI building our stuff. You will too. And then it's about what you said yesterday, Tim. I fully agree. I love this. We're going towards a creation economy where your thoughts and your willingness to propel those thoughts are going to make you famous and well loved and goods receiving. Like if you give the idea to the AI first, the AI is going to make sure you get compensated for it.
Tim Pool
It.
Jason Ellis
Tim, you think music it could make music of today? Because music of today is weak.
Tim Pool
No, no, no.
Jason Ellis
Because I don't feel like AI this is gonna sound old, but I don't think AI can match Bob Dylan.
Tim Pool
I I disagree.
Jason Ellis
Like his first there, there's a few I I I do their word like that soul.
Tim Pool
I do understand the argument. I just think that like can you.
Jason Ellis
Do a Cardi Bay song? Sure, bro.
Tim Pool
It could do Dylan.
Jason Ellis
Big words, I bet.
Tim Pool
I I I. So here's the thing right now it's. Have you what we've.
Jason Ellis
Are you a Dylan fan?
Tim Pool
50 50.
Jason Ellis
Like you don't really know his whole album. No, it's all body of work. No, I mean there's some songs, dude where his lyrics. I'm like how'd you do that, dude?
Tim Pool
So right now doesn't even know. I will say this.
Ian Crossland
He said he doesn't even know. He's like, I don't know how that.
Jason Ellis
Well, you know, I think I know the interview that you talked about. You know who he said helped him with it?
Tim Pool
Who?
Jason Ellis
Satan.
Ian Crossland
Hilarious.
Jason Ellis
I mean he did in so many words. He's like the dark. He's like, it's gone now.
Tim Pool
Here's, here's what I, what I say.
Jason Ellis
I'll pay for it later.
Tim Pool
He said the AI stuff that we're seeing right now is. It's a year old.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, yeah. Fair and because you never know how much better it can get. Right. Right now. No. But in the future. It's only been a year. Sure.
Tim Pool
One year ago when we were using we. There's Udio and Suno are the two like prominent music generation AIs. And it was novel. Like Richie walks down the stairs and I play a song and it's like Richie Jackson skating down the Street. He's like, what? What's going on? And we're like. It just took 10 seconds to do. You just type in. Make a song about Richie Jackson skateboarding. And it did. But the songs were never good. It was a song. It sounded produced. They rolled out 4.5, and we are sitting here dumbfounded how psychotically good this music is.
Ian Crossland
You can insert your own songs, which is the big difference. And it'll make. You'll insert just a rough cover of you playing acoustic guitar, singing, and then it'll create a full band artistry. And it'll pump hundreds of them out for you. You'll just keep hitting, generate, generate, generate. Change the prompt. No, make it Big ballroom orchestra. Generate, generate, generate. No, make it a country song. Generate, generate.
Tim Pool
And it's just put it like this.
Ian Crossland
Full awesome sound, but it's not consistent vocals.
Jason Ellis
It's kind of right.
Ian Crossland
The soul is missing.
Jason Ellis
You got battery cars that can take off quicker than engine cars, but they can't do burnouts. They don't have the feel. You know, it's like, hey, I can do this stuff where it's like vinyl music. Like, I don't know. I'm not old enough to understand it. People like, dude, CDs. Vinyl is where it's at. I'm like, really? I can't. This one's been remastered. It sounds really good. No, dude, the whole thing about the vinyl, I'm like, okay, I get your argument. It's the same as, like. I forgot what I was gonna say. But there's like this. This core, like Pantera. Like AI matches Pantera. You can't do what Dimebag did. You can't even. The thing that. The mistakes that he did in it is the best part about it.
Tim Pool
That's. That's true. It can't. Can't have the errors that make it human.
Jason Ellis
Right?
Tim Pool
What I will say is I agree with you on. I got this. We got the smart TV out there. We got this monitor up here in the studio. People who are watching online, never. They don't know that we have a gigantic tv. So everyone can see that. So people in the room can see our news stories. I would much prefer if there was a dot, a knob for volume that I could pull out to turn the TV on, and it would just turn on it. We talk about how great technology is, but. But I'm gonna say it again. Cause I know everybody agrees with me. You turned your TV on and it said, would you like to update? And you put, no. And you've got to Click four different updates every single time you want to open. I know this because every TV we have does this. When you turn those smart TVs on, it's like, would you like to update? No. Would you like to update your remote?
Jason Ellis
No.
Tim Pool
Then you open the YouTube app. Would you like to update the app? No. Would you like to update your TV software? Stop. I will punch the TV. My point is, everybody still bought the TVs, so I think you're right, largely, that there's going to be a lot of that human element missing, but everyone's going to adopt it out of convenience.
Richie Jackson
You're seeing a correction in the vehicle market. People are demanding analog. I want to touch buttons, I want knobs. I'm sick of the big screen down the middle. And these companies are actually throwing out these mock. These mock, you know, sketches, and people are in love with it.
Tim Pool
Well, here's the thing. Like, driving my Tesla versus my Honda. In the Honda, I can be looking straight and I can feel. And I can feel the. The buttons. I know which one is AC up, AC down. I know which knob does what on the Tesla. It's a flat screen, so you have to look at it. And then the car yells at you.
Ian Crossland
And like, electronic locks that you can't get open if the battery's dead. Windows that don't.
Jason Ellis
I love that.
Ian Crossland
Dude.
Tim Pool
Have you ever seen those videos where the guy's like, my phone died, so I'm locked out of my car. That's.
Jason Ellis
That's insane. See, I think there's an ear. There's a feel. You know, like when I race cars, you feel the car with your butt. And if you don't feel a car with your butt, you don't care how it drives. If it drives in a very relaxing, comfortable manner, you're satisfied. It's the same as a car. Like my friend Tony Hawk. Yes, name drop. He loves the battery car. And he's always like, dude, this thing takes off so quick. And I'm like, I get it. And I'm very happy for it. But to me, I'm old school. And there's a thing with the clutch and the way it takes off and feeling the rubber starting to break free, and you back off just enough so it doesn't break free. The. Is it. Is it more effective? I don't care. I care about the feeling of it. And it's like digital music. I'm not saying it's bad. I'm just saying, you know, like. Like, you know, B.B. king, like, the way he played guitar when He. If you're there and you're watching him, the sound that of the. Of the pick hitting the strings, you can't do that. But if you don't have that ear, because in the end, these people that did hear the original sound of that, they'll be gone. So the AI sound, what do you have to match it up against? It'll be. You'll be very satisfied.
Tim Pool
It's like in the Matrix when he says, you ever wonder if the reason robots can't taste, that's why everything tastes like chicken. Wow. Yeah. So the AI here, here's here. Here's where I agree with you. Sitting in that room listening to a live performance from Bob Dylan will never be recreated. No recording will ever capture that.
Jason Ellis
That's what I'm saying.
Tim Pool
The AI can only be trained on the recordings that we have. So what's going to happen is you're going to ask the AI to create what sounds like that live performance, but it will never be able to capture. Will just be a skin suit being worn by the machine.
Jason Ellis
Right.
Ian Crossland
And you've got.
Jason Ellis
There's a feeling that. It's the same with horses, man. There's a feeling that you think you know, but you don't unless you're in it.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, Acoustic vibration, literally. Because the binary of digital makes it so you're either hearing a one or a zero pulse. You're not hearing the fluid analog sound like you would in a room.
Jason Ellis
Dude, whale sounds like I just saw something the other day where if you're in the water with the whale and they start talking, the water vibrates and you vibrate in the water. Water.
Michael Malice
That's true.
Jason Ellis
Piss off, AI with your stereo system, you ain't matching that, dude.
Ian Crossland
Unless they start communicating with that and we won't know. They'll be having a conversation where we think they're having like a topical conversation about the weather, but they're actually transmitting vibrational data and we'll be like. We can't even perceive it. But that's how the AI will communicate with itself.
Michael Malice
Well, allegedly, you can get killed from a sperm whale. Click.
Ian Crossland
Really?
Michael Malice
Yeah. Let's say it can be fatal.
Ian Crossland
They're breaking the sound barrier.
Michael Malice
I don't know. It's just a big acoustic wave that comes at you and it can rupture your organs.
Ian Crossland
And what if they use that as a defense mechanism?
Tim Pool
You do know small animals, you. You do know that if you get hit in the chest at the exact right moment your heart stops. Yeah.
Richie Jackson
I believe happened to the safety for the Bills, really? Demar Hamlin.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Richie Jackson
He got hit with the helmet a very specific time.
Ian Crossland
Stopped his heart, and it can start your heart.
Tim Pool
They save him, though.
Richie Jackson
They saved him, but he was dead for, like, 10 minutes.
Jason Ellis
Whoa. Yeah.
Richie Jackson
Yeah. Demar Hamlin. D A M A r. Completely normal after that.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
He.
Richie Jackson
He actually came back and played for a few years. I don't know if he's still in the league. But the thing is, it happened during COVID so there was obviously some connections there that people were making.
Tim Pool
There was.
Richie Jackson
It's a thing. But there was baseball players a lot.
Tim Pool
There was a kid playing, like, in Little League, and he got hit in the chest at the exact right moment by the baseball, and it shut his heart off.
Richie Jackson
Yeah. I don't like the boxers a lot, too. I knew. I knew a kickboxer had happened to. And I used to.
Tim Pool
That's crazy, dude.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
I wonder what.
Ian Crossland
Because you can start a heart with that same pressure.
Richie Jackson
Exactly. There's just. It's. It's. It's. I think it's in between beats. There's a millisecond gap where if you get hit right in that spot.
Tim Pool
Oh, yeah.
Richie Jackson
Stop your heart.
Tim Pool
Demar doesn't play. I remember the story.
Richie Jackson
It was a big deal. And it was, like, right during COVID So it was a big debate.
Tim Pool
Everybody. Everybody was.
Richie Jackson
And they said it was a stunt double when he came back.
Tim Pool
Right. Well, that was weird, though, to be honest.
Richie Jackson
It was a little weird.
Tim Pool
He's, like, covered up, and he's, like, on, like this, and you can't see his face.
Richie Jackson
Yeah.
Tim Pool
It's like, what. What is this?
Richie Jackson
And he also. He turned out to not be a very good player. So everyone was expecting this big comeback. And then Bill's fans. Some really nasty stuff about him, bless him.
Tim Pool
But, you know, there's going to be something really weird that happens when all of our movies and entertainment and everything like, hey, man, look, we predicted this, and I'm gonna bring it up again. I'm. I'm predicting what I. What I'm gonna call, like. They're gonna call it, like, Disney X or, like, Disney Experience.
Ian Crossland
You call. You call it Disney World. I said the same thing. They'll call it Disney World. And that's. That'll be the AI app.
Tim Pool
And you're gonna. You're gonna. You're gonna open. So there's Disney plus right now. Right. You got your movies in it. They're gonna launch a companion for, like, an additional 29.99amonth, and you're gonna you're gonna. It's gonna have a little microphone on the screen, and you're gonna click okay on your remote and you're gonna say, I'd like to watch a Star wars movie where. Where Mace Windu doesn't try to kill the Chancellor and has him arrested.
Jason Ellis
Oh, wow.
Tim Pool
And it's going to go. You got it. Rendering. And that's gonna have a little circle fill out, and then it's gonna start the movie.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
And I don't know how long it's gonna take to do that. Maybe. Maybe a couple years. But Amazon just invested in something called Showrunner. Oh, yeah. Which is an AI service that is a company that is a company that launched specifically so that you can AI Create shows. You literally just say, make me a cartoon comedy about a detective who has a sidekick who's a giraffe. And it's like, okay. And it's.
Ian Crossland
Can you, like, tell it? Use Ian Crossland's online Persona to figure out what kind of humor he likes and make it that kind of.
Tim Pool
Not because of copyright stuff, but this is it. And right now they're telling everyone to join their discord so you can bring your stories to life.
Ian Crossland
Amazon just bought this, like, three days ago or something.
Tim Pool
I don't know if they bought it, but they invested in it.
Ian Crossland
Okay. I kind of want to also. I've been talking about technology for a couple years.
Tim Pool
You join, you go into this. Look, man. Whoa. Who's gonna want to watch? Like, think about. It's like, hey, do you want to go see the movie? Which movie is it? It's the new Mission Impossible. I don't know. I can't stand Tom Cruise, man. I'd rather watch a Brad Pitt Mission Impossible. Okay. Do you want to go to your house and watch a Brad pit Mission Impossible on Showrunner? Okay. Yeah, that's what they're gonna do.
Ian Crossland
Oh, so people will be compromising.
Tim Pool
Here's. Here's my. Here's my prediction. My prediction early on was that what's going to happen is you're not going to go to the movies anymore. You're going to follow creators. So my boy Andy, for instance, who does boony stuff, knows everything about Final Fantasy.
Ian Crossland
Amazing guy, by the way.
Tim Pool
So what happens is these companies don't have the die hard fans like. Like him. He's. He's like the comic book guy in Simpsons who goes, excuse me. Actually, the second rib was hit twice and made two clearly distinct noises. Is. So he can go into the AI and say, no. The new Final Fantasy game needs to be like this with this story. And then what's going to happen is these people are going to go online and they're going to be like, dude, have you played Andy's new game? It's amazing. They're going to follow him on Showrunner and then they're going to look at the shows he conceptualizes and that's what they'll end up watching. And we're already starting to see it because on the Suno app you AI generate songs and then choose which ones to publish. And then people will follow like comment and share your account in your posts as if it's social media that's happening right now. Yeah. And there's a song on sooner with over a million streams already and it's like an electronica song with like a synth female voice. In the past week, it's got like a million hits. Dang, it's getting crazy. Somebody I rendered a fake video game, got 30 million views. It was five seconds of just like first person, you know, walking through a forest. And it looks like a hybrid between a 2D, like a 2D and a 3D. So it's like, it looks like there are frames like, like a cartoon, but it's 3D as you walk. And it got 30 million hits before people realized it wasn't a real game in development. Someone just AI rendered a video.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, I mean I'm looking forward to it because I've complained about the jobs economy for a while the way the Federal Reserve had a set up. You dig a hole, you fill the hole up. We'll make sure you both get paid with our money that you pay us back at interest. It's a Ponzi scheme. They've kept people busy with jobs and brainwash them to think that's the only way to procure settlements is through jobs. So we're in a transition economy. It's never going to go away. Like dudes are still going to be plumbers. Maybe we'll make AI snakes that can get in and do all the manual labor that dudes electricians. But for now those things. But it's the creative minds are being, you know, I guess I don't know what you would say relevated or elevated right now. And, and that's awesome. I love that about society that we could make robots do all this.
Tim Pool
And now for the cherry on top.
Ian Crossland
What's that?
Tim Pool
The cherry on top is neuralink.
Ian Crossland
So you can do it all in your head without thinking. We need to build a corporate governance.
Tim Pool
So, so that you can Put the, you know, it's not going to be. It's not. It's going to be wireless. We're already in the world of wireless tech. Once you get the Neuralink implant and it can write to your brain and read from your brain, you will simply just connect to the WI fi on your brain. And you're going to be like, I. It's not about watching movies. You're going to be like, me and my friends. It's like, you're going to go to your friends and be like, it's going to be psychic, by the way, because you're going to be on X in your brain and you're going to be like, hey, you guys want to go to the movies? Sure. And you're going to zonk out. And all of you will instantly. You'll exactly. You'll instantly be experiencing being in an AMC theater buying popcorn. And the best part is you can eat whatever you want non stop. And you're gonna be like, I want a big thing of popcorn. Splash the butter, the caramel, chocolate chips. I can eat whatever I want in this fake reality. And then you go into the movie theater and you get the movie theater experience. It's all in your brain. The worst thing about it is everybody's gonna go into their own private little universes where they get to be demigods flying around, shooting lasers or whatever they want to do, banging celebrities.
Jason Ellis
And they come back.
Tim Pool
They're not going to come back.
Michael Malice
I think they're going to do way worse things than that.
Tim Pool
Indeed.
Jason Ellis
Maybe we're already in it, dude.
Ian Crossland
Maybe there's going to be competing versions of it. The world economic order or the liberal which is trying to become the world order is trying to put people in pods. Literally. Klaus Schwab talked about people being in pods and eating bugs and being happy in this tech, blinded to the fact that they're even in it. But now Elon's trying to build like a co parallel version of it that we could legitimize so you don't get lost in it.
Tim Pool
I got to tell you, like, so we have a chat. Someone chatted. Tilly Farrelli says no. Tim Cass. People will be in the movie. They will be the characters. Some people will choose. But some people don't want to do that. Some people just want to hang out with their friends and watch Spider Man. And that's.
Ian Crossland
I'll watch you if you want to go in.
Tim Pool
But I will tell you this. There are many times I'm watching a movie where I'm Tempted. Like, I wish I could just go in there and just punch that guy in the face. You know what I mean? So, like, Mace Windu trying to kill the Chancellor. I'm telling you, when I get AI, that is the first thing I'm doing.
Ian Crossland
What if it was like, no, you have to become Mace Windu and do it for him. Like, you have to. Or if we went. I was like, dude, be Mace Windu for this scene. And you're like, okay, so you become the.
Tim Pool
We can do that. So I can already AI generate Atari games so you can go in and say, make me Space Invaders, and It'll do it. Doom. 30 seconds and you got Space Invaders.
Jason Ellis
And this is making me think we're already in it. Maybe because after a while, if you could do that and you could do everything you want and live the life that you would want, human nature would be. I'm bored of winning and sleeping with whoever it is, is the most famous hot chick. I want to lose. Fired. I want to wake up with cancer. Yeah.
Tim Pool
I gotta. I gotta be honest.
Jason Ellis
Divorce and be in credit card debt.
Tim Pool
What is.
Jason Ellis
What.
Tim Pool
What are the chances of being a world's best pro skateboarder, famous comedian? It's slim.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
So for all you know, you're some fat dude who was like, man, I wish I was Jason Ellis and you plugged your brain in. Now you're sitting here, wait, that's the.
Jason Ellis
Case, I'm just gonna go out there and drop in real quick and get that money, because I cannot shake that right now.
Richie Jackson
You'll wake up at a studio apartment in, like, Cleveland.
Ian Crossland
I have been thinking that Cleveland, your spirit, like, your spirits. I don't know how spiritual you get. When I smoked DMT one time, I vaped it and I was in the presence of them. It was a lot like, er, real.
Jason Ellis
Like a guy that would smoke.
Ian Crossland
And it was like being in a.
Jason Ellis
VR room smoking dmt.
Ian Crossland
Like a. Like a stereoscopic realm. But they were there. And I wonder if they created this to simulate experience, like, what you're saying. Suffering. It's totally possible.
Tim Pool
They're bored because they get bored.
Jason Ellis
What a lose.
Ian Crossland
Or hold on, like, legendary difficulty.
Tim Pool
It's like a video game, you know? So when you play a video game and you put in cheat codes, it's fun for a little while and then.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, yeah.
Tim Pool
So it's like you need some. Some conflict to make it worth.
Jason Ellis
Maybe losing everything and getting it back is better than winning in the first time.
Richie Jackson
That was the whole point.
Jason Ellis
I know because I've done It.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
You know, I've lost being a pro skateboarder, and then I had the number two show on Sirius xm. Can't read, Dude. I made millions of dollars a year. Do you know how cool that felt? People in skateboarding was like, just your car. I was like, yeah, dude. How did you do that? I'm like, it felt better than the first time around.
Ian Crossland
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
That's why I can't wait for comedy to work out for me, because I'll be like, three times in one life. Yeah.
Richie Jackson
Triple crown.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
You know, if you're gonna be at.
Jason Ellis
The show tomorrow, I don't know yet. I haven't. I got it. I'm doing this. I know, but we're Text her right now. That's inappropriate, love.
Tim Pool
Just. I just want everyone know how hard I'm trying to get you to come and join the show we're having tomorrow.
Jason Ellis
All right? It's only. It's only up to. Hey, my manager. Do you want to take care of my dogs and cats for one more day? That's really the question.
Ian Crossland
Children first. I wonder if the spirits decided to plant seeds across the universe by using what they called panspermia, where they send fungal spores out through deep space, but they send, like, an electromagnetic pulse to propel that stuff.
Jason Ellis
Jesus dmt, Christ.
Ian Crossland
They remain. They remain tethered to the matter so that they can interact with it by, like.
Jason Ellis
I just took a rib right now because that's.
Michael Malice
Oh, yeah, he was like this before.
Tim Pool
He smoked dmt, by the way.
Michael Malice
And so I guess DMT didn't do much. I'm telling you, he's.
Tim Pool
Richie's not wrong.
Ian Crossland
It might be entangled to the photons that are passing through our bodies.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, you just shout.
Ian Crossland
Causing the heart to beat.
Jason Ellis
Yeah. Yeah.
Ian Crossland
Because I was like, how would a spirit of high frequency be.
Tim Pool
Be.
Ian Crossland
Be coupled with my physical matter? Didn't seem right. But I also. But maybe it's. They're entangled with the light that, you know, hits you.
Tim Pool
You know what's funny about all this, though? And. And everybody's laughing.
Jason Ellis
No more coffee for you.
Tim Pool
All right, but here's the thing, dude. Here's the thing. That's why I talk about how I bought the stock in that company that does graphene and made a bunch of money. Because we're probably the chattering monkeys laughing at Ian. And he's right.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Ian Crossland
The spirits are laughing. I think they like that. I'm talking about this. If they're real, they seem to be. They really like that. I'm Making a deal out of it that they're bringing it up.
Richie Jackson
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
I mean, it's a weird thing that when you believe it, because I, I was a not a talented athlete when I was a skateboarder. Like, I was. I had two twin friends. They were twin brothers. One was fat and one was obese. And they were better than me for the first three years. And I kept just. I loved it. I thought about it all the time and I was like, I'm gonna be a pro skateboarder one day. You'll see. And at the point where I said that there was no such thing as an Australian born professional skateboarder, but I was positive I was gonna make it. And one day at the ramp, I learned all these tricks in one day. You skate so you get it. Were you the first frontside ollie? I was doing frontside ollies, level with the coping. And my friend Gary Valentine was like, dude, you look like you do that really easy, easy. Why don't you pose one, like two foot high? And I posed it. He was like, you could have made that. And then I made it. And he was like, dude, how high do you think you could do it? I'm like, I don't know. You just surprised me from. I, I believed you and made it. Then I did a four foot one and made it. Then I did a five foot one. And at that time in Australia, that's the highest frontside ollie anyone had ever done.
Tim Pool
Wow.
Jason Ellis
And then I fronted allied into a tail grab, into a stalefish, into a front city into a leaner. And then the next day, skateboard spot, skateboard shop, guy owned the shop, comes down, he's like, you ever try to backside all? You ever tried a body jar? You ever try? And I ollied into all these things and I became maybe in the top thousand. The day before, in 24 hours, I was in the top five wow. In the country. And I learned all these tricks in one day. And it came to me like, it was like a little weird gift thing where I was like, did that just happen? And all of a sudden, I became one of the better skateboarders in Australia. And then I was like, I'm going to America. I'm gonna be a pro skateboarder. And then the rest is history. It was because when I look back at it, I believed things that weren't real. I knew it. But you can't. You didn't. I didn't know it. But if you had asked me, I would have said it with conviction. Oh, yeah, I'm gonna Be. Tony Hawk and I are gonna be friends. I'm gonna be one of the greatest skateboarders in the world. And I was absolutely positive.
Tim Pool
What are the chances of that? Very slim studio apartment in Cleveland.
Jason Ellis
Don't ruin it. I don't want to go back to Cleveland. No offense, Anybody.
Tim Pool
All right, we gotta go to your chats, everybody. So SM button, share the show with everyone. You know, it's Friday night. Thank you guys for hanging out. There's so much more you could be doing. But we're going to read your chats right now. We got some big ones. Timothy Robinson Melton says, please help my brother Patrick at GoFundMe titled Join Patrick's Journey to Beat Leukemia. Love you guys. Sorry for. For only chatting when I need help. Hey, man, that's a. That's a brutal, brutal thing. And I. I wish. I wish your brother Patrick the best. That's a GoFundMe Patrick's Journey to Beat Leukemia Man. Best of luck.
Ian Crossland
You got it, Patrick.
Tim Pool
Shane H. Wilder says, I can't wait to see y' all tomorrow for the culture war live. And to heckle a certain pimp on a blimp. Oh, and Mother Shuckers is amazing. Enjoying it right now. Thanks, Sam. Oh, you're hanging out at Mother Shuckers right now, Tom? I said, what up? We love that place. Those guys are awesome.
Ian Crossland
Oh, they shuck oysters, I guess.
Tim Pool
I don't know. It's called Mother Shuckers. I got crabs, they got scallops. They got chicken wings, bro. I got chicken wings and scallops at the same time. Time. Amazing. Yeah. You guys talking about clarified butter? Love scallops. So good.
Ian Crossland
You ever cook scallops? I don't want to waste time. We had super chats in the pipeline, but they're challenging.
Tim Pool
It's a very kind of specific question.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, yeah, they're just. It's an art, you know, a 20 second art. You want to get the sear and flip it. Otherwise you get rubbery. Learn it from Gordon Ramsay.
Tim Pool
All right.
Ian Crossland
Indirectly.
Tim Pool
Good guy fright says two questions from the culture war. If he a male dog, is he also gay? And who is the crazy eye guys standing behind Alex and the other guy that was staring at everybody? That was, I think, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike. Yeah, Mike, Mike. You gotta. You gotta ask Matan. Oh, Ton's great. He's got. He's got a lot. He's, he's. He's going places. That kid's amazing. He's a funny guy, you know? You know, right? He's a funny kid. I didn't know. I thought he was in his 20s. He's like, I'm 18.
Richie Jackson
And it's crazy because he's been around for years.
Tim Pool
Yeah, he was like, 12 doing this stuff. He's funny. We had a lot. I had a lot of fun doing his show.
Ian Crossland
I like that.
Tim Pool
I brought bodyguards. I had two bodyguards.
Jason Ellis
I pretended to be very seriously threatening the whole time.
Tim Pool
So the funny thing that happened with the culture war show is that so in the green room. And we should have filmed it because we were laughing for two hours straight. It was a lot of fun. Pisco was trying to do this argument thing about how everybody's gay, because he said something like, who would you rather hook up with? I'm toning the language down. He says, who would you rather hook up with? You know, Blair White or, you know, Buck angel or whatever? And Matan responded with, I don't want to eat crap either. Why would you ask me that question? Because the. The left uses this argument that clearly men would rather be with the male who looks female than the female who looks male. And so then Matan said something like, all right, I think I then responded with, oh, okay, Pisco, would you rather bang a rottweiler or a chihuahua? Like, what's your preference? If that's your argument? And it's like, the reality is nobody wants to. And then he, like, gave a wishy washy answer. And then Matan was like, what do you mean, man? Answer the question. Which dog is it gonna be? And then during the show, Matan yelled at Pisco for no reason, just because it was funny. Just, did you rape that dog? And Pisco refused to answer.
Ian Crossland
Oh, he pulled the same tactic back on him.
Tim Pool
And so then Matan asked again, and he refused to answer. And then what ended up happening was, I think it was like the third or fourth time, Pisco goes, I will not address the dog thing. And then I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa. There's something to be addressed, right?
Ian Crossland
He just addressed it by not saying he wasn't gonna address it.
Richie Jackson
After the sixth time, everyone in the room started looking around like, why won't he say no?
Tim Pool
Or like, Matan said, so the dog. He was like, honestly, I wasn't really thinking about what it meant. I just thought it'd be funny to say. And I figured he would just laugh or say no.
Ian Crossland
The answer would have been no. Every dog consented it.
Tim Pool
My. Yeah, I was like, the appropriate response is just to join the joke, Joke around with Matan and then be Like I don't you say something like. Nah, she liked it. You know what I mean? Like to make it a joke and.
Ian Crossland
Everyone would have laughed. She approached me. I mean.
Tim Pool
There'S ways to make the joke, you know?
Ian Crossland
Yeah, you got to play with the trolls. Eat you alive.
Tim Pool
Like Matan. You agreed. You agreed if we took. If I paid you for this, you weren't going to tell anybody or something like that. Like, hey, I paid.
Jason Ellis
Paid you.
Tim Pool
Something like that. But tomorrow I expect to be substantially more insane because tomorrow. Sold out. Yo, Wild. Okay.
Ian Crossland
Really confirmed that last ticket got bought. I imagine that was. There was one. Let's see if it got sold. If there's not, you guys get better. Get this last ticket.
Tim Pool
I'm sure it sold out. Yeah, yeah. So. So what happened was it was listed as sold out right before the show started. When it freshed it, it said there was tickets available. And I'm pretty sure it's been sold out all day. Cookies. Yeah. The 9th is not yet sold out and that's probably going to be substantially crazier.
Ian Crossland
I will be there. So get your tickets for the ninth.
Tim Pool
Myron Gaines is going to be there. Good.
Ian Crossland
Who else? Kyla from the culture where she was on about a month ago.
Tim Pool
Turner is her name.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, Turner.
Tim Pool
And Cat Timf is going to be there too.
Ian Crossland
I'm not familiar with Cat.
Tim Pool
Yeah, she's. She's on Gutfeld a lot.
Ian Crossland
Awesome.
Tim Pool
And we're debating, did feminism destroy the west on the 9th. Tomorrow is, you know, defund the police.
Richie Jackson
Putting Myron in a feminism debate is like literally a bull in a china shop.
Tim Pool
Yeah, it's meant to be wild, but apparently. Well, I shouldn't get into it too much, but apparently people want to protest him. We'll see what happens.
Jason Ellis
What do you do?
Tim Pool
There's like a bunch of. He. He's got a bunch of viral clips of like. How do I describe this? What. What do you call it? It. Because I don't want to say something so, so banal as like anti Semitism because it's different. But one could describe some of the things he said such a way. Like when he posts.
Richie Jackson
Stirs the pot. He stirs the pot.
Tim Pool
There's a clip of him where he has a. He has a. A show that's about dating and. And like men and women. And he's very like pro man, anti feminist. But someone on his show is talking about how she. It's a black woman saying that she supported Hitler. And it's like very much this, like, Farakhan Esque what's that. What's that organization called?
Richie Jackson
The Nation of Islam.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tim Pool
So it's like this is very prevalent among a lot of black people who are, you know, part of that circle or whatever. And so as she's praising Hitler, he's laughing and not along with her. And it went viral. And now they're trying to get him canceled because he's said other things that are comparable to that. And, you know, he's very anti Israel. And so we're told that they're going to be Jewish groups, they're going to protest him or something. I don't know what's going to happen. Happen. Yeah. Well, that was always a lot done. Protests. We had three protesters.
Jason Ellis
I just don't like angry people. They make me uncomfortable.
Tim Pool
We had it. We had a guy at the show get kicked out last week because he was screaming at Gavin McInnes. And at first it's like, we gotta come to the microphone. We let people in the audience join the stage and come up and debate. And this guy came up to the mic and started, you know, going at Gavin. And to an extent, I'm like, no, no, it's good. Like, by all means, challenge the views, the statements, whatever these people have said, tell them they're wrong and we will debate it. But he wouldn't stop heckling. All right, so then security was like, should we get rid of him? And I was like, alex, up to you? And Alex was like, get him out of here. Because he's just screaming and he's not.
Jason Ellis
Actually, you know, that's ruining the show for everybody else.
Tim Pool
Yeah. Like, we. We tolerate a degree of heckling if it's good.
Jason Ellis
Yeah.
Tim Pool
But if you're doing bad and you won't stop. So the first thing Alex does is just like, hey, guys, tone it down. Take it to the mic. But some people who echoed who are good, we're like, bro, come up to the microphone. Come up like, yeah, let's say more. And then when they make good points and it's like, clearly thought out or funny. Yeah. We bring them on the stage.
Jason Ellis
Same as comedy, man.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
If you got something to say and it's worth talking about, we can go. I don't care if you win or lose.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
But if you're just yelling stuff because you're intoxicated. Yeah. And I'll warn you. And then I'm like, hey, man, everybody else bought a ticket to hear comedy. You're not funny.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
You're just fighting at your mouth.
Tim Pool
That's what was Going on. All right, let's. Let's grab some more. We got Spooky Toucan. It says the most orderly plane boarding I've seen was, oddly, in Brazil. Everyone was super calm, polite, and patient. Off the plane, not so much. Yeah, I don't know.
Ian Crossland
My one hack is maybe if I say it out loud, more people will do it. But I wait right before my ticket. I'll sector 7 get ready right before my sector gets called. I'll just get in line.
Tim Pool
Here we go. Rue Actual says in all caps, I just unsubbed and canceled my years old Tim cast membership. F all of you, especially producer that doesn't know f all about actual dog attack stats or what pit bulls were bred for.
Jason Ellis
I told you, man. I told you.
Richie Jackson
I win. I win.
Jason Ellis
I told you.
Tim Pool
I googled it and then read what Google said. That was it.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, I win. I'm in your head. I win. I think your dog is. Your dog is biologically attacked. He's an animal.
Tim Pool
This is, this is. This is the. The nature of, like, doing podcasting. It's that, like, you have to have the lowest common denominator of opinions to get the maximum audience size, because at any point, anything you say might cause a cancellation or something. And so the question we ask is this, how much does the average person care about the topic of pit bulls? Not at all.
Richie Jackson
Not at all.
Tim Pool
I don't do those who. Who have pit bulls. How much? A great deal. And they're going to be on the side of defending pit bulls. So the equation is simple. There is no reason to talk about the issue. That's how most podcasters operate. They'll be like, I am not going to say anything about it because there's no new memberships to be gained by pointing it out. There's only old memberships to be lost because people get very offended at what they care about.
Richie Jackson
These people, People are so sensitive too. I mean, it's crazy.
Ian Crossland
I understand not wanting your family to be ripped away from you, you know, with their dog, but selectively breeding those things out of existence, I think is a much more intelligent, safe thing to do for the species of humanity. I don't want wolves roaming around.
Tim Pool
I think I. I think pit bull should be treated the same way we treat anything. Literally anything. You're allowed to have a gun.
Jason Ellis
You don't want wolves roaming around.
Ian Crossland
No, it's the same thing. I don't want to breed wolves into existence. Yeah, I heard they did it in, like, Montana or in Colorado.
Tim Pool
Colorado Farmers were like, stop.
Richie Jackson
Yeah, the Cities voted to release the wolves and the farmers are like, why? And then they started eating everything.
Tim Pool
Okay, I'm gonna make. I'm gonna make this pit bull point. This is important. Okay. When I hear a story about a guy who accidentally shits himself, we. We all go, you needed better training with your firearm. That's like, you know, you made the mistake of doing this. It's a tragedy, whatever might happen. But you're allowed to have guns. I feel the same with pit bulls. If you have a pit bull and it gets off the leash and kills somebody or maul somebody, I see that. No different than somebody is now liable for that attack. Same if you had a gun and misfired and shot somebody. So I don't care if you have pit bulls.
Ian Crossland
If you have a gun, though.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Ian Crossland
If you have a gun and you wave it at someone's face, you'll go to prison. But if someone's dog, pit bull comes off their leash and charges at you, they don't get arrested. Like, come on, that's a deadly weapon.
Tim Pool
Yeah, yeah.
Ian Crossland
Then you'd be like, do you find charging at me like they're. It's trotting towards you with its tongue out, but still you don't know if it's going to go for your ankle.
Jason Ellis
Pitbull running towards you and asking for a pat. I'm not going to call the authorities into that.
Ian Crossland
I've seen dogs snap.
Jason Ellis
Well, that's two different things. And to be honest, the pitbull runs over and bites you. That's different. So same rules apply if it's a German shepherd.
Ian Crossland
But I've just seen dogs be all happy, go lucky, and then they see a piece of food, they say something they think is food, they think it's a rabbit, they go nuts.
Jason Ellis
Wait, any dog?
Ian Crossland
No. Well, I've just seen it happen with dogs.
Tim Pool
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
Oh, so should we ban dogs?
Ian Crossland
No, but you treat them like deadly weapons. The big ones. Literally, physically deadly weapons that you can go to jail for brandishing.
Richie Jackson
Yeah.
Jason Ellis
Well, I feel like I didn't understand what you're like. If a pitbull's around, he's running around, he's happy. Fine.
Ian Crossland
If it's off the leash. If innocent.
Tim Pool
Yeah, but no dog can get anything.
Jason Ellis
It's fine. Fine.
Tim Pool
They have leash laws in most.
Ian Crossland
I think just having it off leash is like brandishing it.
Jason Ellis
Oh, I disagree.
Tim Pool
I just.
Richie Jackson
Firearms can't run around.
Tim Pool
Well, I mean, I don't. I don't think any dog should be. I think you should. There should be leash Laws in cities.
Jason Ellis
I'm more worried about if you got a little dog and your pit bulls off the leash and the little dog runs up because little dogs are dumb. They'll pick a fight with a German.
Richie Jackson
Oh, yeah.
Jason Ellis
And then they'll get eaten. And now you got like. Like, I don't care who's in trouble. Like you. I don't want to watch some dog get eaten. I don't care who owns who owns. True. It's a sad state of affairs if that happens. So you should keep your dog on a leash. The end of that, you know? But if it's a look, man, I got.
Tim Pool
All right, let's grab some more. We got ISIS says. I'm sorry, when did the culture war become a show about crimes against dogs? I'm sorry, when did the culture work become a show about crimes against dogs?
Ian Crossland
I think last Friday.
Tim Pool
Love their dogs. Bro here in the meat man says, I live in Austin and saw a Waymo. At an intersection, turn left from the center lane with a car next to it. It in the left turn only lane. Not just Tesla.
Ian Crossland
Read the warning signs.
Tim Pool
Okay, who. When I was in la, dropped me off on the side of a. Of a main road. It just pulled up.
Jason Ellis
Hey, I've had an Uber driver do the same thing.
Tim Pool
Fair.
Jason Ellis
Just saying.
Tim Pool
Here's the thing. Uber driver, you go, hey, buddy, keep going. I'm not getting out.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, yeah, good point.
Tim Pool
Wayo it goes. Please exit the vehicle. And I'm like, no, I'm like, you pulled over on the side of a main road. There's cars driving past us. That's insane. Just pull in the parking lot. What are you doing? It wouldn't go to the address for whatever reason. I don't know.
Jason Ellis
Yeah, they haven't figured it out yet, dude.
Tim Pool
All right, let's grab some more Interstellar Reaper system. I'm deathly allergic to all nuts, especially peanuts, because my mother binge ate peanut butter. You have it backwards. My mother and daughter told me this. Don't let your wife.
Ian Crossland
Peanut butter was on the kind of peanut butter if you use like Jif.
Tim Pool
I don't know. Our baby is not allergic to peanut butter.
Ian Crossland
Sugar and random. Also, peanuts are beans. They're not nuts.
Tim Pool
Peanuts.
Ian Crossland
Weird name.
Tim Pool
Peanuts are legumes.
Jason Ellis
Legumes.
Ian Crossland
Legumes. I like you said that. Are those not beans or beans also legumes.
Tim Pool
They grow in the ground. Could you imagine if peanuts grew on trees?
Ian Crossland
Jimmy Carter.
Tim Pool
Squirrels would just destroy those things.
Ian Crossland
Yeah, they never would have.
Tim Pool
Squirrels are basically like little chimpanzees I also.
Ian Crossland
Jimmy Carter was a peanut farmer.
Richie Jackson
It's true.
Jason Ellis
Did you know it's valuable.
Tim Pool
That was a Joe Rogan reference. For nobody who gets it is a meme someone made about Joe.
Ian Crossland
There's got to be a middle ground between exposure to a food producing like a resistance to the toxins on the food.
Michael Malice
Jimmy Carter was also attacked by a rabbit in a swamp.
Tim Pool
Was he really?
Michael Malice
Oh, yeah. It was quite embarrassing for him, actually. Like they used it against him. Like he couldn't even fight off a rabbit.
Ian Crossland
He thought it was something else.
Jason Ellis
It didn't kill him.
Michael Malice
No, but it messed him up pretty bad.
Jason Ellis
There's a. Messed him up pretty.
Michael Malice
There's a photo of it escaping.
Jason Ellis
What were the injuries? Pull it up. This turmoil.
Tim Pool
Pull it up.
Ian Crossland
I also want to point out you may have seen the rabbit video of all the rabbits bouncing on the trampoline. It's fake. It's AI really.
Tim Pool
So we've got. I don't know that we've got. We got a bunch of super chats that are making the point that I knew was going to happen, people. I'm not gonna read the super chats because I'll just paraphrase them because there's a bunch. They're basically saying the 1350. Are you familiar with the 1350? So what happens is people call for the batting of pit bulls because they say something like, despite being 6% of the dog population, they're responsible for 60 of the. Of the fatal bites. And the 1350 is a often cited race realist stat where black people make up 30% of the population but are responsible for 50% of violent crimes.
Ian Crossland
I mean.
Tim Pool
And then the funny thing is Ben and Jerry's actually ran it on their X account and I was like. Because the progressives and the race realists largely agree on the issues of race as it pertains to social.
Ian Crossland
Humans have reason and logic, dogs don't. So maybe they have some level of reasoning, but you need like grammar and logic to have re basically. So they don't. So. And dogs that aren't human, like animals that aren't human. It's another conversation. Completely has nothing to do with human. Humans talking about wild animals that have been domesticated.
Tim Pool
I know.
Ian Crossland
Kind of like that.
Tim Pool
I would just like to say before we leave the show, pit bulls are the best dogs anyone's ever had.
Richie Jackson
I love.
Tim Pool
I love pit bulls and I think people should be allowed to have pit bulls that they want. I do mean that seriously. I think you're just responsible for your dog.
Jason Ellis
Dog.
Tim Pool
I Don't like the idea that it's like pitbulls are dangerous. You can't have them. Guns are dangerous too. We can have them. You can have your pitbull. Just you're responsible for what your pitbull does. I got no beef. I know a lot of people have good pit bulls and love them dearly. So please be become a member@timcast.com for many years, many, many years, as we stand here and celebrate the wonderful nature of the pit bull and how they're great dogs.
Richie Jackson
I stand with pit bulls.
Tim Pool
It's Friday night, everybody.

Yeah, what's up?
Jason Ellis

Timcast IRL: Trump Deploys Nuclear Submarines Amid Russian Threats, Saber Rattling Escalates with Jason Ellis
Release Date: August 2, 2025
In this high-energy episode of Timcast IRL, host Tim Pool delves into pressing geopolitical tensions, corporate controversies, and legal battles shaping today's landscape. Joined by guests Jason Ellis, Richie Jackson, Michael Malice, and Ian Crossland, the discussion offers sharp insights and uncensored opinions on topics ranging from international relations to corporate accountability.
At the heart of this episode lies the escalating tension between the United States and Russia. Tim Pool initiates the conversation by addressing President Donald Trump's recent decision to deploy nuclear submarines following provocative statements from former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.
Key Points:
Trump’s Response: In reaction to Medvedev's remarks about the Soviet-era nuclear capabilities, Trump has ordered the repositioning of two nuclear submarines. Pool characterizes this action as "saber rattling" and questions its necessity.
Security Analysts’ Perspective: While some security experts view Trump's move as a rhetorical escalation aimed at pressuring Moscow, it does not signify an immediate military threat given the existing arsenal of nuclear-powered submarines capable of striking Russia.
Public Sentiment and Strategy: Richie Jackson notes that Trump’s shifting deadlines—from "50 days" to "August 8"—are strategic maneuvers to maximize pressure on Russia, potentially bringing Putin to the negotiating table.
Notable Quotes:
Tim Pool [08:12]: "But yeah, you know, I will, I will stress how, at this, how little I care about the conflict in Ukraine at this point."
Richie Jackson [08:30]: "He's trying to maximize pressure... to try and get Putin to come to a negotiating table."
The conversation underscores the complexities of international diplomacy and the fine line between deterrence and unnecessary provocation.
Shifting focus to corporate narratives, the discussion turns to American Eagle's latest advertising campaign featuring actress Sydney Sweeney. The brand is under scrutiny for its portrayal of jeans and implied genetic commentary.
Key Points:
Ad Content: The commercial celebrates the durability and style of American Eagle jeans, intertwining themes of heredity and personal traits.
Public Backlash: Despite the brand's attempt to emphasize jeans as a staple across generations, some viewers have misconstrued the ad as making subtle references to genetics and, inadvertently, eugenics.
Corporate Defense: American Eagle has issued a statement clarifying that the campaign focuses solely on the quality and timelessness of their jeans, distancing itself from any unintended genetic implications.
Notable Quotes:
Jason Ellis [23:45]: "They're just saying she has good genes and they're commenting on her boobs. And then they got all mad about it."
Michael Malice [23:58]: "The campaign was originally titled 'Eugenics,' but I think they had to change that."
The segment highlights the challenges brands face in conveying messages without misinterpretation in today's socially aware environment.
A significant portion of the episode addresses the burgeoning legal issues surrounding Tesla's Autopilot feature. A Florida jury has held Tesla partly responsible for a fatal accident in 2019, marking a critical juncture for autonomous vehicle technology.
Key Points:
Jury Verdict: Tesla is deemed 33% liable for the crash that resulted in the death of a 22-year-old woman and severe injuries to her boyfriend. The driver, George Brian McGee, was found responsible for the remaining 67%.
Potential Damages: If upheld on appeal, Tesla could face up to $243 million in punitive and compensatory damages.
Tesla’s Stance: The company anticipates a reduction in damages upon appeal, maintaining confidence in their autonomous technology despite the setback.
Notable Quotes:
Tim Pool [60:03]: "This is crazy. Tesla said it expected the damages to be reduced on appeal."
Jason Ellis [75:24]: "It's a real epidemic. And I don't think that many people talk about it because I've noticed when you do, people get mad at me."
The verdict raises questions about the accountability of artificial intelligence in life-and-death scenarios and the future of self-driving cars.
Beyond major news, the panel discusses everyday frustrations with airline boarding processes, drawing parallels between cultural practices and systemic inefficiencies.
Key Points:
Boarding Strategies: The conversation critiques the conventional boarding methods, suggesting more efficient alternatives like boarding window seats before aisle seats or vice versa to minimize delays.
Cultural Observations: Ian Crossland shares an anecdote from Moscow, illustrating cultural differences in boarding etiquette and passenger behavior.
Notable Quotes:
A heated segment focuses on the controversial topic of pit bulls, exploring their breeding history, behavioral tendencies, and the societal stigma attached to the breed.
Key Points:
Historical Breeding: Pit bulls were initially bred in the 1500-1800s for bull baiting and later for dog fighting, traits that have influenced their aggressive reputation today.
Behavioral Statistics: Despite comprising only about 6% of the dog population, pit bulls account for approximately 60-68% of fatal dog bite incidents, raising concerns about their suitability as pets in urban settings.
Responsibility of Owners: The panel emphasizes that irresponsible ownership and poor training exacerbate aggressive behaviors, advocating for stricter leash laws and breeding regulations.
Notable Quotes:
Richie Jackson [49:54]: "They're bred to kill. They're not like they're... and if you want a dog breed."
Tim Pool [116:00]: "I love pit bulls and I think people should be allowed to have pit bulls that they want. I do mean that seriously. I think you're just responsible for your dog."
The discussion underscores the need for balanced policies that address both breed-specific behaviors and owner responsibilities to ensure public safety without unjustly vilifying specific dog breeds.
Towards the end of the episode, the conversation transitions to the broader implications of artificial intelligence in various sectors, including entertainment and corporate governance.
Key Points:
AI in Creative Industries: The guests speculate on AI's role in revolutionizing content creation, from music generation to personalized entertainment experiences, while debating its limitations in replicating human creativity and emotional depth.
Corporate Automation: The panel envisions a future where AI manages corporations, potentially leading to more efficient but impersonal business operations, raising concerns about accountability and human oversight.
Notable Quotes:
Ian Crossland [84:14]: "They’re going to build corporate governance structure legitimately with Elon on X because that’s what he wants to do."
Jason Ellis [75:53]: "It's only a year old. Sure."
This forward-looking discussion highlights both the transformative potential and the ethical dilemmas posed by rapid advancements in AI technology.
As the episode wraps up, Tim Pool and his guests reinforce themes of personal responsibility, ethical considerations in technology adoption, and the importance of informed public discourse. Encouraging listeners to engage thoughtfully with the issues at hand, the panel leaves the audience with a call to action: to stay informed, take responsibility for personal and societal actions, and navigate the complexities of the modern world with discernment.
Final Notable Quote:
With a blend of humor, anecdotal evidence, and critical analysis, this episode of Timcast IRL offers a multifaceted exploration of today's most pressing and provocative topics.
