 Come on, let's go. What is your evidence? Who is it? You're a wolf moralist. No, they're worse than animals. They stopped Ben Shapiro from going to events and speaking. They stopped Ann Coulter from doing it. You never cave to the mob. We will never bow to the mob. Ever. No matter what or what. Do you see the final expression of cancel culture in terrorist groups like we'll see who can. What's up? Hello, friends. How are we doing? Those intro inserts at the end there. They seem so out of place, but they're hilarious. I came back early from Puerto Rico. I switched my flight just to make sure I was here. I'm like, she has to stay in Puerto Rico a little longer. I would have been. I didn't need any inferences from my absence. I've never missed the episode if I start now. That'll be the next thing we have to address. Yeah. Yeah. So there's a lot. I don't know where you will want to start. There's just, there's so much to unpack. I'm a little bit overwhelmed even just like starting. I think everyone's caught up at this point. I think everyone's going to done their homework. I'm an expert. I know everything. Binder. We have a unanimous decision and Binder would like to speak. Right. Yes. I'd like to listen. We got to address the elephant in the room here. And that's, um, you know, Lance has all these LGBTQ flags behind this. Look at this. I also have the rational national LGBTQ plus shirt and I was going to wear it today because I was doing a piece on like how they're going after LGBTQ plus folk, the target stuff. I really wanted to be like, and you know what, I'm, I'm, I'm going to get fucking even more gay. You know, my, my gain is ramp up exponentially as long as you're like pushing back in the opposite direction. So I was like, yeah, that's going to be, that's going to be, uh, I'm starting early. All right. I'm starting pride early this year. Oh yeah. But the embarrassing part is I fucking, I'm sorry, David, I spilled fucking some chili on the white shirt. And it hurt. He looks up. I'm like, no. Chili. Geez. Oh, really do me dirty. God damn. That's desecration. It's okay. Buy a second one. It's all good. Hairy, hairy back to bender. Oh, yeah. Lead us off. Lead us. Lead us into the, uh, the discourse. Sure. So, um, wait, what are we talking about today? I don't even know what's going on. What's happening? Well, we should address what's important. So, you know, we, people, uh, have been asking us more and more about the, uh, uh, one of the co-hosts of Leftist Mafia. And, um, you know, because there's been a lot of, uh, first there were the videos calling it drama and all sorts of things. And then there were videos that came out and explained the, uh, more egregious allegations in detail. Uh, and so we, we came together and, uh, basically the Leftist Mafia decided, uh, that one of our members was going to get a promotion, uh, like this. Uh, if you guys remember this scene from, from Goodfellas, uh, no, basically we had to, uh, decide whether, uh, one specific member, Blair, AKA Illuminati, was going to stay with the, uh, show after these videos came out. And, you know, people have been asking us about it for weeks. And at first I think we thought, at least this is my, from my perspective, I thought it was just YouTube drama. And those first videos were titled as such. And then more videos came out and more videos came out and gave us a much larger, you know, sort of, uh, view of what was really going on. And, you know, it was mixed in with some of that, like, YouTube drama stuff that we just assumed it all was at first. But it wasn't all that. Some of those, uh, some of the issues were, were very serious. And I think we, you know, in our, we had a meeting, which is actually the first time we met when we weren't doing a show. Just to let you all know how serious we took this. And, um, you know, I think that's on Saturday, on Saturday. Yeah. Yeah. Let's set it up. Yeah. And, you know, um, I think we decided that the combination of how serious some of these allegations were, combined with the fact that unfortunately Illuminati was not addressing the more serious allegations. Uh, and, and also, you know, she had mentioned that if it became too much, she would have stepped away on her own, but we decided that, yeah, it, it, it was, it was, it was detracting from our work and what we do. And the, the allegations weren't good. And we can't, you know, we couldn't really, uh, stand by without, uh, any sort of, uh, addressing of the situation on her end. But it just, it just wasn't happening in the weeks that we gave her the chance to do it. Um, so as of today, the leftist mafia is Mike Figueredo, David Dole, Ole, Lance, and me, Matt Binder. And that's it, the five of us. Um, we've also decided that, uh, based on how the past few weeks went, um, every month, our audience will vote on which one of us gets kicked off the show next. And we will continue that until there's none of us left. This one soul survivor. Can I also add to that as well? Um, just on a more serious note, I do apologize to the audience for not taking this seriously. I just want you to understand from our perspective as public facing people, every single week, if not every day, we see a bunch of drama about each other, about, oh, did you know that Lance said this, David said this? And so instinctively, I, yeah, I dismiss a lot of it because a lot of it is bad faith. So I do feel bad that I initially didn't look at the situation with severity. And sometimes not taking a position is taking a position. So I do feel bad that people felt like we were, I guess, inadvertently endorsing Blair's behavior here because I absolutely, and I want to be clear about this, I unequivocally denounce what she did. And I really feel bad for Wonder and the Click. I think that her behavior was manipulative, controlling. It was deceitful and it was downright abusive. It's something that you can't do this to people and then just not respond. Like there needs to be accountability. There needs to be an apology. And like I believe in restorative justice, but in my opinion, Blair has not even started to take those steps for restorative justice. She has any, like I genuinely don't even know if she thinks that what she did is wrong. Yeah, I think, I see somebody in the chat who was like, well, it's okay, but it will take a little bit of time. But I believe that she's doing a lot of things. And like I already said, like we've seen people who have been doing their best at their own. Oh, this is so pretty. We've seen it really, really, really, so pretty. But like I just know, this is just as easy as that. And I think that it's just like, yeah, I liked the idea of a state of mind, and I was like, you know, it's just like, I think that all of us in our community are so, and I also think this is, you know, something that we could do anyway, but, but I think that I think that than all of our channels, even with the loss of subscribers bigger than all of our channels. She is continuing to upload videos. She is choosing for whatever her own reasons not to address it, explain herself. And again, I made Claire. And for that reason, I have seen my thumb, my face on several, several thumbnails slander and me. Because the last time we addressed it, because I said that I did speak to her. And obviously she did not share with me what the nature of this situation is. Because like I said, when we addressed it on the after show for those who've seen it, I said, I didn't know. I didn't. I did not watch the expose because I was not somebody going to go out of my way. I figure this is drama. And that's what I thought. And we're always like, you know, to echo that earlier. It started way more minor too, right? But yeah, let's say little things that escalated to bigger things. We should make it. We should make it clear that those first videos, like I listen, I really have a hard time watching videos like that based on YouTube drama. And those first videos were that they were even titled as such. Like I'm not even like just myself. I'm like describing it as that some of the videos I saw when people told me, Oh, you got to watch this video. It was like the Illuminati drama explained the controversy around Illuminati. Like those sort of clickbait headlines don't do anyone any real justice or help if the actual, you know, based on the headline too. But also a lot of the content was mixing in some of this basically like, you know, this creator doesn't like this creator. And they have a beef over this sort of menial reason. Like when you mix those things into the real issues that were focused on weeks later, I think I think you sort of muddy the water. And that's why I was so confused at first. And I think the rest of you felt that way too. Every week there's six of us. Every week I look someone is tangentially in their own the internet controversy with some backstories and preexisting relationships and things that I don't know about. And that just is what that just is par for the course. You know what I mean? It goes past to me. I assumed that I assumed, yes, Iraq, I thought she was in a huge scandal, but I thought it was because her platform is huge. I thought the drama is commensurate to the size of her platform, not the level of the true seriousness of like this being a thing. And I'm not somebody like I said, I wasn't going to go out of my way to go spend my time like watching what I assume is drama, what controversy in a bunch of videos. And I just didn't really know. And I just kind of was going about my business because to my understanding, all that had ever been presented to me on this situation or from Blair or anything was that was that there are people that did not like her, that she's previously known, you know what I mean? Because she went and did her own thing in jealousy. I see now that is that presents that appears to be the opposite of such, right? But that was all I thought. I think this is I thought this is some whatever thing. And I've since, like I said, I've since gotten informed. The whole thing about information in this life is when you get new information, you come to a conclusion, you know, an opinion, a conclusion. And I will say this, I understand why a lot of the there were somebody in the audience last week I had noted, I see and say, you know, we're worried about y'all, you know what I mean? It's why we're and I was like in my mind and my spirit at the time. I said, what the fuck? And and then by the time I watched 15 X expose is, you know, it's really an unfortunate thing to piss off. Excellent video essay is because, you know, fascinating as a person who loves reality. Yeah, I understood what what people were saying. I see, you know, what's up? I, you know, yeah, yeah, I, I, I, I all were like, we need to watch the videos. We need to this. Oh, I understand. Yeah. And I want to add also that like I, the only context that I had was Blair's initial response video. And at that point when I watched that, I thought that the totality of the drama was the legal eagle stuff. Watching her video, I didn't have any additional context. I thought that it was fine. But after going through watching, you know, recap videos, watching the click and wonders videos, I actually feel really disappointed in myself that I didn't watch her initial video. More critically, because they're the red flags. Same. I assume there's a thing. I watched it in the vacuum. I watched it in the vacuum. I've never seen, I don't know any of these people. I've never seen anything. I assumed my my rational mind could only assume that she must have been responding to them. You know what I mean? Like allegations they made. I never thought I would have conceived like when I watched that, that it was her presenting his mental health for the first time and bring it. I didn't look at it. I didn't see this note. I didn't, you know what I mean? In my mind, oh, she's in drama. Here's a video. This is somebody, you know, I have a friendly we're like friendly enough relationship that I host thing, whatever, cool, whatever. I wasn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't know that I didn't see. I didn't, whatever. Once I actually seen videos and seeing what the original tweets and all these different things are, I could see it differently. They used the platform, but I didn't have any of that context. And like, you know, I thought about it. Just I just did not realize I just didn't fucking realize a month ago like this would be this. I really, like I said, this is the first time we've never met. We've done this show this whole time. This was something like we did to have fun. Like, like Lance put us together one time for a midterm stream that we thought it would fun to do the show. And we've never had a meeting ever. We go real. We just roll with it. We've never had a meeting. We, this was the first time we had to have a meeting. I never thought I could do a meeting. So I just didn't know. Yeah. And I also want to address the fact that like when it comes to this entire situation, I also released an individual video to apologize because I did take like Blair's side initially when I'd seen her first video and I didn't know this was going to continuously amplify into what it's become. It's one of those things where like I recorded that. I went off to go do the Tim Pool thing. You know, my editor ended up releasing it like days later. And then all of a sudden it's like, Lance, you have to watch like eight more videos. Just like there's like hours and hours and hours of things now to come out since. And then like, I think it's like totally valid and totally like, you know, it's a very fair criticism of both myself or I guess any other content creator who makes this kind of stuff. And just like, you can't just say that stuff exists in a vacuum. You can't just like isolate yourself completely and be like, oh, well, this is, you know, maybe there's always going to be more to this story or something else is going to come out. You know, I think that's a totally fair critique. What I don't think is a fair critique by the way, chat. And this is the one that I'm going to push back on to the people who are like, Lance is doing this because he's simping. He's simping. This is the first off, you can have friends who are women. It's okay. It's awesome actually. It's super based. It's super, super awesome to have friends who are women. And also standing up for women in general, it doesn't immediately mean that the only reason is you want fuck. Like, yes, what do we get to fuck now? And if you really want to push this whole, kind of like I was being a let us stray to, and I know this is for internet trauma and everything, you could say the same thing about when I saw the clicks video for the first time. I was like, well, this is an incredibly gorgeous human being. He's very, very beautiful. Am I being swayed by that in and of itself? Am I not like going to listen to the arguments that come out right afterwards? Am I not going to hear, you know, what happens? It's absolutely ridiculous. Yeah. I see people in the chat saying, for those for the general, for anybody who might be confused, I don't know how you all have missed it at this point. If we're finally up to date, I don't know how you all don't know what's up. But basically the summation is, Blair has been accused and a significant amount of evidence that has not been rebutted, has been presented to show that Blair basically has a pattern of, she seems vengeful. It seems like she has a pattern. She has a pattern of being vengeful towards content creators in her path. That's what it seems like. That's what the accusations are. People who've worked with her, it seems like that, from watching a million exposés, it seems like perceived slights lead to massive, massive. And there's also a power imbalance here as well. First of all, if any of you just told us that she was a landlord, she would have been gone like that. I didn't know we had a landlord in our midst. Okay. That is a non-starter for me. I think that as leftists, we failed by admitting a landlord to the podcast. Finding that out was, it was mind blowing. The landlord thing is the thing we find most horrifying of the things we've learned. No, not most. No, no, no. Not most. It would have got my attention quicker. But like overall, going through the landlord thing for, ooh, we can go through. I think it's important to go through some of it. I don't care about that. I mean, I'm not a landlord, but I don't give a shit about that. I mean, whatever. It was the deleting. It was really, you know, a lot of shit made my hair stand up. Like what made me, like I said, I'm really prepared to, I said to all of y'all, I was like, oh, for the one time, I'm like, I'm really the audience. The audience was right. And that we need to look into it. I see what they were saying as far as, like, yeah, right? Like this is something we need to address. It wasn't just drama. Like it was way more than drama. You know, and that's our fall for not. Yeah, it's, and again, we're in a position where we are constantly presented with drama and a lot of it is bad faith. So like when we're on this massive platform, when you have six different leftists from different spheres of the internet, I mean, you have a lot of bad faith bullshit. So we kind of have to have that baked in solidarity by default. But in this instance, you know, their solidarity was kind of, it was bad for us. And part of it is because like being in a group dynamic here like this with somebody who has very clearly had issues with groups in the past. That's why this was, people were especially concerned, I think, just to kind of go through. So like the, because my audience, it seems like a lot of my audience doesn't even know just to give you a really quick rundown. So there was a bunch of allegations, but the biggest ones that stood out to me was, there was this group called Sad Milk. And one of the members click, she essentially pedo-jacketed him. She smeared him. She paid people to dig up dirt on him. She had sock puppet accounts harass him. And, you know, think of the Jimmy Dore Libtard 01 situation on steroids, exponentially worse. When it comes to Wonder, watching his full video, like I watched a bunch of recaps and then I watched Wonder's full video and the recaps didn't do it justice. The Wonder video broke my fucking heart. I really identified with him because he was in this position where he was very young. He was 19 years old. She was his landlord. She controlled his transportation. She controlled a lot of elements of his life. And the problem with like having your employer be your landlord and control so much of your life is they can take away your entire livelihood like that. It's not just your livelihood, your housing. And basically that happened to Wonder. He lost everything. And it nearly drove him to the brink of suicide. And then she took that and she used that against him in his video when he talked about how, and this part really struck me in Wonder's video. Wonder talked about how he told Blair he was trying to unalive himself. He was looking for the keys to his dad's gun cabinet. And her response to Oz media and Oz is somebody who kind of covered for her and brought all the receipts was that, well, I don't know what the reason was effectively why he did this, but I'm just concerned for myself. Not even taken into any concern his personal safety. And she kind of framed it as a wellness check when she called the police on him. Wonder shared how telling the police there's a suicidal man that could put me in danger even though I was suicidal there. It's just there's a lot. And again, like to me, it's not just simple drama. This goes beyond drama. It's abuse. And it reminds me of like a textbook Darvo case which Darvo for those of you who don't know is an acronym for deny attack reverse victim offender where instead of just owning up to something and apologizing, you flip it and you make yourself the victim and you go on the offensive and now watching their videos and juxtaposing that with Blair's response and seeing that again, it feels more like that to me. Although I'm not a psycho analyst. So, you know, I can't say anymore, but like this is very serious. And I feel really, really bad for the people involved, especially Wonder. Yeah. Yeah. No, it- I haven't spoken much on this because you guys are saying everything I'm agreeing with. Like this is just from my perspective, I think it was said earlier, like, I just didn't think anything of this until I saw it, like, I think it was like, we were like three weeks into it. And she hadn't been on the show for those weeks either. Like she took time away. And I was seeing comments and colleagues, still comments and like, all right, I guess this is for real. Let me look into this. And then when I finally watched a couple of videos, I was like, oh, okay, this is, this actually is serious. And again, we have the perspective of seeing bullshit, ongoing bullshit all the time, whether it's on Twitter or wherever, about, you know, all of us at some point. So it's hard to know what to take seriously when it becomes, when it's about personal drown between two people. Cause there are other, you know, criticisms that we're trying to compare to like, oh, you guys went after Anna. Like we, which was so, it's just so stupid on so many levels because- It's not the same. Like not even close to the, that is a something that was said publicly on Twitter, that on its face, we could all like be, just by you seeing what was written, that we didn't agree with. It's much different than knowing what is happening between personal, you know, personal relationships between individuals. Like those are not the same at all. Cause we have no sight on what is going on in those relationships, right? Meanwhile, when it comes to a public post, it's very easy to see what's going on there. So again, it took a while for us to take this seriously. The Anna situation was an issue, like an issue we could discuss. It was, it's not one that, you know, I wish she had, but it's nonetheless an issue that can be discussed. Like if Luminati had said what Anna said, she wouldn't have disappeared for three weeks, would have requested she come on the show so we could have this debate about this important issue. This would have been something that would have been, oh, you know, we gotta wait for it to see what happens or, you know, you should step away where she's the one who actually, really though, people should know this. You know, when this first happened, she's the one who wanted to step away. We stood by her at first from what we knew because the stuff hadn't all come out. And it was the legal ego stuff. And we were like, you don't need to step away. Just come on the show. What's wrong? But she was very insistent about stepping away. Yeah, I also, I wanna let the record reflect. I told her to address this. Like my behind the scenes was come on the show. My position was always that you, if you are running, essentially, and the internet wants to address you about something and they feel like you're running away, you have a live show every Thursday, you know, they're only gonna hunch you down. You need to come address it. You know, that was always my position. And it always was, but again, I didn't have the context of what the situation was. And I wanna echo a lot of the earlier sentiments, the Anakasparan thing y'all doing, that's a false equivalent with the situation in its entirety and I don't even feel like addressing it. And as far as the Blair stuff, listen, it was, it's very frustrating because y'all understand we're doing a live show across a bunch of different platforms. We have to look at a bunch of live chats and comments and things that get in your head. People are literally swarming our chats. They're being incredibly, it's stressful, right? And then there are a lot of people who do not and have never watched our show. Now, suddenly they're watching the show, you know, screaming at us, saying all these negative comments about us, you know, in the audience because we haven't responded to this or blah, blah, blah, but they have no other context of us, no other like us. It's very, we were waiting through a lot and trying to figure that out and we're doing our best. And I think we're doing our best to be as transparent as humanly possible. I feel like a lot of other shows and places and stuff would not be having a conversation with you or anything like that, you know, we are trying. I feel like y'all should give us a little bit of grace. But yeah, I wanna echo what Mike said and I wanna be, like I said, a few times, I wanna be accountable at the audience. I think the audience was right to tell us that we, we should look into it. I don't think that makes us wrong for not realizing that we should have like looked at it and been, you know, super involved. But I do appreciate that y'all insisted, that y'all insisted and that we took the time to go look into it because I see that it is a much bigger thing because I watched, like I said, I watched a lot of videos and I kept learning more and more information and seeing that this is largely a pattern and seeing like, like I haven't had any issues but I think what I found were very striking of the information that had been presented to me because I have, like I told y'all, I have talked to Blair and since all this has happened, I talked to her. What was being given to me just did not at all, at all, at all present what was, you know what I mean? I felt very like, what the fuck? Like, hey, what the fuck? Like when the fuck that I entered the Game of Thrones? I was blown away. I'm like, what is happening? Like, I'm like, you know, so, you know what this made me realize? I would be so shit at the Game of Thrones. I was like, well, this was all going on. I was like, oh my God, I would love to think that I was going to be some kind like, you know, bisexual God King, like the Viper or some shit. No, no, I would get rolled. I would get so rolled. There's like so many moments where I'm just like, wait, what? Cause I'm too dressed. I would get manipulated. I had everybody's reactions, like everybody in Laughers Mafia peg for how we'd respond in different situations and stuff. The thing about the Blair situation is I'm not paying attention to Blair because Blair, you know, has only ever served in a, she's a triangle. I can't, we don't see her in the first place. Right, we don't know what she looks like. She had minutes collectively, the entire show, you know, and so she's, she serves more moderators when she's here and she's pleasant in those interactions. So there's really no reason for me to assess her, you know what I mean? To like be thinking about her in a deep level. And so, you know, we believe only. Meanwhile, she was little finger the whole time. She's playing with her. Little finger, searsie, nigga, searsie. I was like, yes. And I had to like go to, like me and Laughers have pretty much been on like, well, you know... I would have been cut in season one. I would have been in season one. I'd be like, no, Dad, hold on. Wait, wait a second. I think we were, I literally when I said, we might, I hate to be, I hate to be, I hate it. But David Dool might be right. I was like, I'm going to let me go to the chat and get home. David and Binder had this. Maybe you should give more credit to me and my chat from now on. I think that's what we have. You're beating the racism. But I will give you credit. I did come very, I told y'all in our official meeting, I said, wait a second, I have a new opinion. I am totally prepared to embrace humility and say, when you get more information, you can come to a different conclusion. I see what's up. It's real fucking crazy. For me, it was the. The wonderstruck stuff really blew me blew my fucking mind. And I also was really like, I hated for my own self that I I'm just so busy and not thinking about it. That I did. I missed over. It was an oversight because if I had been paying attention, it should have immediately immediately alerted me. Why would a CEO or why would the boss be, you know, buying the car and all these different things? Like it's so obvious once it's exposed and once it recedes, like, you know what I mean, what's happening there, but I just didn't fucking think about it like that from my perspective, how it was being presented to me was very like, look at what I've done for this person. And this person is doing this to me. And I'm like, yeah, yeah, you know what I mean? And I, and I also think, you know, I wish throughout this whole, well, I don't wish honestly, because I think everything needed to have like everything needed to happen. It seems like this has happened for a long time. This is a long whatever. And this is no, listen, this is not any, I don't got no personal beef with Blair Luminati. I hope they figure out, I hope not wishing any ill on them. They could do whatever they want, but this is just what my objective thoughts are on the situation. As a, like, if it were my client, I wouldn't take it to trial is what I'm saying based on, on that's what I've seen. You know, it seems like this has happened for a long time. And because of power, you know what I mean? And having a large platform, it hasn't been exposed in this large of a way, but it seems like Wonderstruck got the, got the, got the, got the strength to come forward because the click did and then everybody else did with their platforms. And that's the only reason why it's like this. And I said, I think that, I think that that situation needed to happen. And maybe if we had been paying more attention from the beginning, it would not because if it did, if I'd been paying more attention, I would have told her never to tweet the ship, the legal stuff, but I wasn't paying attention then. You know, like when that happened. Yeah, but I couldn't care to what you have to understand. If you're not in this world of like this kind of, I don't know people who do things like this. I don't, I couldn't even conceive that someone's doing shit like this is blue minds. Like I literally went to the group job. He went like, hold on. This is, this is scary. I see why they're telling us we should be concerned, but I couldn't conceive of that. So I, I just, y'all, I'm just, I was, I was fucking shocked. Okay. I didn't fucking know. I'm blindsided. We were blindsided. Yeah. I didn't know. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. And I just want to say that like, I was being trying to be like very supportive that I'm a defense attorney, right? You know, I just find like, we, okay, people are fucked with, you know, that's what I assume, blah, blah, blah. But once I, once I see him, I said, all right. And he can't like unsee it. You know, yeah. One thing that, that Lance said that resonated with me and his apology video is that like he kind of puts too much trust in people that he's like friendly with. And I absolutely do the same thing. It really resonated with me because like, you know, all the, all throughout the years I've had these shitty connections that I had to sever, you know, Jimmy Dahl or H.A. Goodman from the very start of my career as a YouTube commentator. So it's just part of the process. But like you, it's so difficult to differentiate good faith from bad faith criticism. And I think that's why a lot of creators ended becoming really hard headed and doubling down. But like, we're not those types of creators. We actually do absorb criticism, even if it is difficult sometimes, even if I admittedly felt cognitive dissonance, but we're trying to learn and grow and just going forward, you know, we, we try to do better. We need to normalize this idea. Like I am, I am so for, especially people with large platforms, you know, coming out being like I was wrong or I fucked up or by the way, I also deeply believe in restorative justice. So it's like anything else. I think like this idea of, hey, on the one end, you have been like used to something versus well, why does the public like response have to be so calculated and then meticulous and then start this entirely new like drama cycle and all that kind of stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I, and that's the thing, like I said, on one end, I feel a little bit like, damn, like, you know, I knew it didn't make sense. And there were certain conversations we were having like, I'm like, wait, what, you know, I kept insisting like, I don't feel like this is not it. It's consistent with this larger vengeful, seriously, Lannister shit. And like I said, if I had been paying more attention from the beginning, I think we would have probably put a stop to. I didn't realize that they would ever, even if they thought like the legal, legal thing, I didn't realize that like not jumping in and stopping them from thinking that would lead them to go on a Twitter thread and do all that stuff. Like, because there are lots of things that happen or you think things or you talk about other people or content creators amongst other people, but you don't know what I mean. So I wouldn't think like not jumping into being like, hey, this app absolutely doesn't appear to be plagiarism. I swear to God it doesn't seem to be needed to happen in order to stop a Twitter thread. You know what I mean? And then by the time Lannister was telling me like, hey, big Illuminati drama is happening in my mind, in my mind, she said somebody copied a style in a video however serious could the drama and the fallout from this that's what I'm thinking. And so then, you know, I hear I'm like the way it's presented to me was like there was this pre-existing drama with a few people that you like friends needed to dress and that's what I thought was happening. I thought they were doing all these other horrific, horrible things and like if I had seen their videos, if I'd seen their things, her video would have seen nuts to me from the jump because I would have realized she not even saying shit in it for real other than just despair. Nothing that they said was ever addressed or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And like I said, you know, I've been very, I was I was nice to Blair behind the scenes about all of this and I probably I wouldn't have gone and cussed out, but I would have told her, hey, nigga, you seem dead wrong. So you should apologize. Like I would have said that, you know what I mean? I would have been like, you should do that, my guy. You should like address that and take that route, but I didn't know anything about it to address from that level. I could only go based on the information I had and I didn't know that like, again, I didn't know I was in the game of thrones like that. I'm sorry. Well, and to be fair to you, Ole, like since the beginning of our show, when we announced our show, you were presented with a bunch of like dirt on us. Oh, well, did you hear about the human support and rational national their fake lips, their fake lips? You had to navigate that from the very beginning who people hate the fuck out of us. So and you didn't you didn't have any context because you were in a different internet space than we were. So like it's been constant. So yeah, exactly. And that's what I thought is like from the minute we announced the show, which to me is like, this is just supposed to be a pleasant fun time, you know, blend these different, you know, areas of the leftist spectrum of platforms and stuff. It was always negativity and people being like, I can't believe Ole is with such and such. I can't believe Ole is with this one. She sold out fast. I don't know. I think I think Ole has taken I think Ole has taken the wrong message here. I think she's got to get on YouTube and search up David Dole controversy explained the real dirt on Mike Figueredo. Everything you need to know about the Lance drama. I mean, that's that's the stuff's out there. We got it. You got to dig in now. Yeah. Time to do your due diligence. Have you heard what I said about Tulsi Gabbard in 2020? In my mind, I've always tried to to some level, I treat everything that I do like these are projects and they are not like I treat my own platform like my shit and I heard somebody in the chat be like, oh, they modeled her name out there. She might mean new to me, but like, oh, Leonardo's name on my sub stack and my stuff that I've had for years has been my brand before I knew Blair existed. So respectfully she didn't come up and she didn't come up with Illuminati. I know you know that. Thank you. You know, I'm like, but I treat my own platform as something that to be responsible for the reason why I don't like stream left is mafia. Like, you know, obviously this is all of our show and I feel that or whatever, but it's not my the way my show I consider that where I'm responsible for every written show. I don't live stream. I don't do those things. I like to create a little like universe that I could be responsible with for in the four walls. Oh, they does this show on the DL. She doesn't want her audience. Yeah. You're ashamed of this. Basically, though, I was like, that was basically no, no shit to be fully candid, but y'all Lance came to be about this like, this is bad. This is affecting all of us. I was like, I for yourself for yourself my audience I literally thought I was like feeling a little siloed from the problem Lance. I'm sorry. It's one of those things where it's like the more you like everyone kept saying and correctly, by the way, like, go watch this video, go watch this video. My Reddit was like flooded with a whole bunch of things was like, please watch this, please watch this. And yeah, it does take a long time. It's one of the reasons why I think everyone here wanted to wait, obviously, to like, you know, give a very fair opportunity to Blair. I like, I don't have any personal like super negative experiences at all having worked with her. So allowing enough time to go by for her to either make a statement or come back or whatever it's going to be, right? I think there was a pretty long grace period in between that. And then yeah, here we are. I mean, we should, you know, we are to be completely open and honest. Like, you know, we length we had that discussion. Lance told her what we were thinking and then she accepted the news. She was the one who you know, did I think she was the original like discord creator of the leftist mafia discord. She handed that over. No problem. We had no issue personally, the five of us with her even when the split happened. So, you know, we can't, we can't add to there'll be no like the drama between leftist mafia and Illuminati explained video is because there was it was a fine split just to be completely open and honest with everybody and transparent here. Yeah. Never did anything to us. I mean, other than I mean, I mean, I mean, other than yeah, it was it was one of those breakups where it's like, it's you, not me, you know, I just feel a little bit like I will say I was talking to my friend about this in the park on the weekend right because I was really explaining the magnitude because you again, I had to change my flight from Puerto Rico to come back for this. That's how serious that she's taking this that we're all taking this even still people are still not pleased, you know, like I'm reading and I'm like, bro, I'm taking this seriously as I could like I delayed all my shit this weekend. We spent so much time on this, like David has a child bender as a child. They have to go get. Watch video. Let's have meetings where we discuss like watch hours and hours of this video because my parents were coming over like I just want to point out that as I said, there won't be any like explaining the Illuminati issue as I said that as I said that I'm looking at each of your titles and Mike figurato has the most live stream viewers and that's because he titled this episode addressing the Illuminati situation. I should have done that. I didn't check usually David dole has the most and I'm usually shocked that me and Mike are close to number because he has so many more subscribers to be fair. I usually live stream usually uploads video so that could be the discrepancy there, but I'm looking over at Mike's video and I'm like, holy, she's got a thousand viewers and it's because he's the only one of us who put addressing the Illuminati situation in the after weeks of people saying, hey, you need to talk about this. I want it to be clear. We're fucking talking about it. Finally, please understand this is what's happening. Yeah, so back I was saying I was talking to my friend in the park and I was like, you know, as a defense attorney, I don't make my client guilty. That's not a problem. I'm going to represent them in the same way. They have to tell me that changes how I represent them. You know what I mean? Because if your client is you can't go up in court talking about my client is innocent. My client is a wrong man and they have a video yet client doing this shit. You know what I'm saying? So it was like, I think what was boggling for me was the magnitude of innocence that had been being, you know, plaid. Like if it had just been like, hey, I'm Searcy. I'm Searcy and people who fuck with me, they get Searcy. You know what I mean? My God, that I would have known that's what's happening. But people were bleeding a whole lot of innocence and I've never, I told last I was like, bro, I've never seen so much discovery in my life. I've never seen so much. I got to laugh and listen to me laugh. Listen, listen, listen laugh. There are a lot of and lots of recedes. So I'm just like, I just say that I'm like, you you know, you put me, I would have like at least tell us my God, like it could let us know that this media was heading our fucking way. You know, I just did it. It wasn't presented to us at any point like, hey, this shit is some shit that's so serious. It's going to be imputed to y'all. This is not just individual drama I have going on or whatever. I wish I just I would have like the fucking heads up. You know what I mean? But I mean, we were all weekend. Like we were sending each other resources. Me and LA were going back and forth. Like, did you hear about this shit? And she's like, no, I saw this video and she sent me and I'm like, no, I watched that one too. Like this is so like it's there's so much. You were genuinely overwhelming. Yeah, it's overwhelming. You know, that's I spent like the entire weekend watching this and getting educated because you all said it was serious and holy fuck you weren't you were you weren't wrong. And it's not like I did do some research beforehand, but not as extensive as I did last weekend to where I was like genuinely like getting caught up watching the actual videos not just the recaps and yeah, it's it was mind blowing. It was really pulling my audience right now in chat because I'm just curious. I asked did you know about the Illuminati drama before we addressed it just now. So far, yes, is winning 60% to 40%. So because I was just curious because like this is something that if you're a casual watcher, if you don't like read the chat, you just like watch one of us. You don't know who you don't know that side of the internet with where Illuminati is. Like, why would you know about what the hell is going on unless you're reading the chat and really engage in, you know, her content so but it appears that a lot of people were aware. Honestly, you know, I see there are people in the chat frustrated that we're talking about this, but honestly, we're in trouble already for not talking about it already. You know, we don't have a choice. We have to address it. We have to deal with it. I feel like honesty is the best policy. So this is something that we're addressing and then we're going to move on with the show. We have to which by the way, I'm sure maybe soon we can move on. But I do want to get to at some point Trump's reaction to Ron DeSantis announcing because I watched one video and I just laughed my ass off and there's like four videos. I want to see what else he said. What was really shocking to me was that you know, I listened to that Ron DeSantis space and he didn't address the Illuminati situation once. I couldn't believe it. Speaking of, I watched some guy cover our reaction to it talking shit and we were like any comments on like when I jump in and I'm like, oh, I don't know. And I don't know nothing about this and Mike is like because I was like I don't know where and Mike was like like, oh, they didn't even know Ben Shapiro and this person and he's like, oh, how are you going to be a little commentator and I'm like, you don't watch this show. You show it up. You literally admit your only hair because it is seriousness that is fucking Illuminati. Give me a fucking break yourself, right? Just bench because my like Ben Shapiro is not the staple of my political fucking focus. I'm sorry that you have to apologize for having a life, Ole, okay, not knowing Ben Shapiro. How dare you I was like, I was like, oh, my god, this chat is, I was like, this is way worse than David Dole's chat ever could be. I ran over the rocks. Oh, Lay Duncan on the chat now. Lay Duncan on David Dole's chat. My chat loves you, but I don't know. They're going to start turning at this point. No, I love. Hey, only only one, only one of the people in this room, only one of our chats made a beautiful emote of Ole in animated Dragon Ball form. Yes, only one only one and that's called simping. All right. All right, Matt simping over there. Yes, that's absolute facts. All right, so I see there are people in our chat that somehow feel like we haven't I felt like we apologize. Oh my god. They got to be f-ing around at this point, right? Yeah. We did our best. We're 45 minutes into this podcast. This is all we talked about. Yeah, and I told you I did research. I changed the flight. I came here and making a whole announcement about I don't know what else I could do. We have to finish it off with a blood sacrifice. I said I had it wrong. Okay. Or I didn't fucking know. All right, the very least because I didn't have a position for real. I just didn't fucking know. I'm like, y'all had it right. Okay, got you. Yeah, there we go. None of us are prepared for like being a like public personality. It just happens. So like we're not PR media trained like we just we're human beings and we kind of roll with the punches and we just, you know, sometimes you take an L. You eat shit. You apologize. You move on. That's part of the game. So we're addressing it. We're severing ties and going forward, you know, we're not going to be a part of that shit. So, you know, it was the I forgot. I just say the crime of deleting two videos was nuts. I don't know if you all know that of logging into a boys channel and that right there. I was like, I would have been out for blood. So yeah, all right. Yep. Yeah, I just want to also add that like, I think everyone here takes the responsibility of very seriously. I totally agree with every single person who's like, you have platforms. You know, what you say and do is important and matters and like I completely accept that in addition to that I don't think anyone here was intentionally in any way trying to ignore anyone's like, you know, comments or criticisms or all that kind of stuff. I think everyone was basically trying to take it as much information as possible, wait to make an appropriate response and give a large window of kind of like, you know, good faith in the opposite direction, all that kind of stuff. Yeah. Yeah, like if I were in a position where I was undergoing drama, I would hope that everyone here would give me like some time to prepare receipts and respond to it and not just like jump the gun. So we're trying to be courteous of somebody who was a colleague, you know. So hopefully you all can understand that. Yeah, it's uncomfortable. It's an uncomfortable situation. It just, it sucks all around like, you know, we had to take shit because we were you know, associated with Blair, but hopefully you can understand that like, you know, we were not, we weren't afraid to call it out or condemn it. It was never about that, you know, so. Yeah, we just didn't understand the magnitude of what there was to connect. Right. Yeah. So yeah, we got y'all, we got y'all. Like I said, we appreciate the audience. I wanted to start. I acknowledge we love our audience, the ones who have been watching the whole time, not y'all new niggas who just came in here to give us fucking shit. You know, I don't care about those people at all. The ones that came in, hey, I'm just here for the Illumina drama. How dare you not denounce her? Like, what the? They literally be like, this is my first time ever watching, but you always excuse me. All the regular viewers are like, move on. Why the fuck are you still talking about this? That's your position. You shouldn't be here. Okay. You don't watch this. Right. Fuck you. See how we get gaslit regular audience by non audience members and listen one last thing before we end this just to show you how committed we are to, you know, not associating with terrible people we are. This is the last episode with Matt Bender. We've all agreed to like Finally. We love Matt. Yeah, Bender. No, no, I do think it's really, really funny Bender acknowledged when last month spoke to Blair for us, but for a second we were like, you saw Blair Bender spoke for the court tonight. For a second we were like, I mean, Bender, you could do it. Bender was like, yeah, yeah, I'd be fine to address the audience, but I think I've never talked to Well, yeah, I never thought how we would have been if my first conversation with her in private was like, hey I'm kidding. I mean, yeah, Lance got us in this mess. It's Lance to get us out. It's fair. It's fair. No, I saw, I was like, I saw some kids video. It didn't have no views on it. It was, but it was like a video about like, fuck me and Lance like our face on it and I was like look at look at what, look at what has happened like on videos I did not make when you, if you search for your channel name on YouTube, it's a horrifying experience. After you get past your own channel it's horrifying. It's not healthy. You know whether or not they like you dislike you based on the picture they choose to make the thumbnail like I'm like, yeah, disrespectful bitch I was like, hey, hey I do the same thing though when I make videos about right wing ghouls, I'm like get that perfect freeze frame or like one of the eyes is half closed and they look like super silly. See, I don't even, I don't even be my brand of disrespect on the thumbnail. I spent my entire episode disrespecting them for like in dramatic editorial You don't need to be petty I'm petty. Yeah, I do that too, honestly. We'll talk about Trump in the status and I'm gonna Yeah, yeah, so I feel like we've addressed that and we can all move on with our lives Oh, one thing that people are probably curious about before we move on is like, are we gonna get somebody new we're just gonna fly with five of us maybe in the future we'll add somebody but for now I think it's just honestly six is like We were thinking of people you know, we wanted to go the no drama routes we're thinking of people to bring on and we, you know, some names that went around no drama we're thinking we're thinking maybe maybe, maybe, maybe Brianna Joy Gray Jimmy Dore maybe Jimmy Dore It's just not gonna be a full load of package there's not a lot of stuff to decompress, you know It's gonna be great. Right. Who else? Yeah, no, no, the the Virgil Texas would bring him back. Virgil Texas Right, right, right, yes We're starting a brand new chapter of drama Destiny of course These are all top contenders I want to let the record reflect like I never used to be in no fucking problems I've never seen my like I never used to be in no problems I started hanging with these white men Who's the real problem? I emailed I emailed Aiden Ross Let him know that there was a spot available on the show You know, I actually I don't even know who he is but I, I mentioned him in my episode on a large audience If we're just gonna go on a mini Aiden Ross there's so many funny things, so he said on stream that he has jerked off to his own sister Wait, no We're all demonetized now Rightfully so Listen, listen, we just spoke about how, you know, in the leftist space you're gonna find out things like this and it's, you know It's expected My mom sometimes watches this show I'm not saying you should stop talking while you're talking I'm so sorry You've done very well, you've done so well He's an absolute darling We love your son, we're so sorry He does not represent our views You don't speak for him Anyways, what happened to the news this week? Target Well, we just talked about the Santas, right? Let's play the Santas tips We gotta play that Trump clip But hey, can I quickly give a shout out to Mike who put out a fucking banger of a special on the whole controversy right now surrounding like target employees getting death threats and like the whole amount of because the journalists the so-called journalists, you know I know we're entertainers, this is an opinion piece but the so-called journalists are sleeping on this fucking story this is acts of terrorism that is getting amplified by a whole bunch of fucking right-wing figures, this is how you have to frame it this is how you explain it, this is how you look people are getting death threats, people are worried about their employees because of this and now they're amplifying that and saying, oh well like Charlie Crick today tweeted, like they're siding with the groomers look, here's a leaked internal email that shows like, yeah, we're worried about the safety of our own employees, target is like, yeah, we don't want people to come and hurt the fucking people who work here and meanwhile Charlie Crick goes off like publishes that shit, like it's been so normalized, that's the part that scares me about this and that's why I love to be a Mike like honestly, it's like, I don't I want people to wake the fuck up to a lot of it and just to be clear, this is not a new phenomenon like I've worked at retail before as well and there were people who confronted me about specific things like for example, when I worked at Blockbuster, I'm dating myself here but like when the black swan came out, a customer confronted me because when I rented her that movie I didn't let her know that there was a lesbo scene in it, these are things that are going to be an issue so long as we have racists and homophobes they're going to berate employees but what needs to happen with Target is they've got to put in resources for their employees, they need a corporate line that the customers can call and bitch to they need to get extra security you know, allocate more labor to each stores, especially in red areas but one of the and this is such, I wish that I found out about this before I uploaded my video so one of the main terrorists who goes around Arizona in particular, Ethan Schmidt who is harassing Target and whatnot I had no idea that it was so I made jokes about how he's closeted right and when he finally fucks a guy the world is going to hear him bust, that's how like repressed he is, it already happened the dude was outed in 2022 he was caught on some gay dating app talking about how he wants this daddy to spread his ass I'm not gonna, David's mom watches sorry, sorry sorry David's mom, I'm so sorry but like, very explicit and the response the response apparently was that he was just there hunting for pedophiles I'm just gonna give everybody a little bit of advice if you're trying to find out if somebody is a pedophile you don't need to ask for pictures of their penis just to put that out there so, yeah I don't understand, so he was actually outed like a year ago and he's still doing this anti-gay shit like I don't he's making videos where he's like I'm gonna fucking hunt them I'm gonna hunt the queers and then like upload it's fucking so scary but they not only think this in their minds but they're willing to film it and then use this as a way to get more likes on fucking social media the normalization of that is horrifying I guess I'm just amazed that this stuff doesn't stick to them, that like we all didn't already know this it wasn't like, you know obvious information that we all know about this individual like for the past year and he's doing all this shit still, like it's I don't know, I don't know Jesse Lee Peterson, he still has a show How do we address people like this that are so clearly doing shit that is wrong on its face even apart from, you know, their past but that our individuals that are just clearly doing it for some other motivation like they have some deep-seated hatred of themselves and people don't care that support his side like I don't, this is why I had like a mental breakdown on my videos this week covering Nikki Haley and her transphobe so I did a video on Nikki Haley made some transphobe comments during one of her stops and there was like no reaction in the audience and it was like another example of just this ongoing bullshit that we've had to I shouldn't say have to address but that we've addressed like over and over and over and it doesn't stop at what point do we like should we keep addressing it because it's not having an effect like I'm just it's so much it's a lot and you know sometimes I wonder if us talking about these individuals is giving them more of a platform than they have otherwise if we didn't acknowledge their existence it I don't know how to address it either and I commented about this on Twitter but you addressing like the mental health angle like was very cathartic for me personally because like this whole week I just felt nothing but like depression and as a result derealization and part of it is just like looking at my catalog and it's just everything it's about like LGBTQ plus hate even if it's just tangentially related it's about that and like when you're part of this community like it feels like the weight of the world is just like crushing you and to be clear I just want to be clear like like me covering it clearly like the impact on me is minuscule compared to the ones that are actually at the center that are being impacted but just as someone just in my position someone covering it all the fucking time and seeing this seeing a new a new example of it every like multiple examples every single day of these crazy hateful individuals like it does it makes you want to do something else or like just cover different stories like don't like completely ignore all this shit and do something else did you see the video of the guy who Tim Poole and a bunch of the right were promoting today who was talking about how the inclusion of trans colors within the pride flag is because they are pedophiles and like you know what is it maps part of an associating with some kind of like you know pedophile normalization scheme or whatever turns out that same person had been brought to court for multiple different accusations of pedophilia sexual contact with kids one of the witnesses didn't show up so it was eventually dismissed but it's like it's one of those people who basically gets out in front of the camera says all these lies about like trans people being about Maj Torre Maj Torre I had on a listener of my show Rem interrupted one of his speeches while he was on the Libertarian party tour in Texas to confront him about an earlier tweet he had basically claiming he was what got him suspended from his original account his original account had like almost 200,000 followers on twitter he got suspended because he had a tweet saying if you come and do a drag queen story hour in my town I'm gonna come and assault you I'm gonna attack you, I'm gonna physically harm you and so he got suspended for that she approached him at an event and he completely flipped out about it so this guy is already off his rocker oh he wouldn't let her he basically said if anyone like I think he knew it was gonna happen so he said if anyone's here let's let you know the beating of speech to interrupt me or something let's do it and so she stood up and basically he talked over her using the mic the whole time and didn't let her say anything and just basically like physically like got off the stage and got up in her face yeah you know tough guy that's most really funny about that like Mike and David both of you were kind of talking about the sadness of all this aspect is like again professionally you cover this LGBTQ plus stuff it's horrifying right that like you know how bad it's been but at the same time it's so fucking cringe like the fascists are so cringe like that fucking Ron DeSantis Elon Musk disaster of a fucking Twitter Spaces was so sad it was so deeply pathetically sad but I was like this is the best thing working in our favor right now like in terms of the other side like hey yeah y'all are definitely doing some fascist shit you're moving very rapidly towards some horrifying historical precedence right now but also you're so cringe it's so god damn cringe for me though that's also part of the frustration it's like do I need to explain this isn't it obvious that all of this all these people are so fucking ridiculous like it doesn't really require you know any explanation at all and you know that's why I have this like crisis where it's like is there a purpose to what I'm doing at all like when it comes to covering these certain things like that it's just because to me it's so obvious that if anyone saw this clown if anyone I mean I guess it's part of it is platforming what happened and what these clowns say but like it's just I don't know I don't know my thoughts aren't fully formed so it's just an uphill battle and like realizing how much of an uphill battle it is it really makes you feel powerless sometimes you know where it's just like yeah I have the same thoughts you know as David it's like what is the point of talking about this shit am I just making people more depressed is there a real utility in constantly talking about these things but I talk about it because I think about it all the time you know what I mean it's all over the news this is like the main issue currently that the GOP has decided on so I like I don't what's what's appropriate like we don't have the platforms to like re or I should say like shift the discourse to a different direction like we can't change the salience we can't change the narratives we're small in the grand scheme of things like we have big platforms but like in terms of the overall discourse it's so tiny it's minuscule so it's like what do you do given that information you know and it's not just like the news like I see the way that the news has a real world effect like a couple weeks ago I referenced how like a trans family members getting harassed by other family members like and you hear the talking points that they say from like Fox News and stuff like I see exactly where it comes from I have them fucking memorize so you know it just kind of like eats away at you sometimes and it's hard to it's hard to process that you know so you just got to tune out easier said than done though because like you know it's important I feel like to stay up on what's happening so I'm a David on this I don't know it's important for people who have no who have don't have a voice right and who are powerless and it's important for those people to know that there are people on their side and that most people I would think would be on their side if given the right information and it's just so it's yeah I because we don't have the power to really change the whole conversation around these topics I really think of my position as just informing people on what is going on giving them any resources where I can in terms of you know how to address it or how to feel like they have power in their own lives so it's really about for me it is information and hoping people have or giving people that information about what is going on and and arming them in any way that that I can't also when it comes to you know this very vocal minority of Christian fascists Christian reactionaries far right reactionaries alt right reactionaries neocons whatever you want to label these different groups or factions they're under capitalism very heavily funded which is why they sound a lot louder than they are like the average person does not hate queer people you know like just just broadly speaking when you look at different demographics of different you know populations in the places where we broadcast from there's not an overwhelming sentiment where everyone's like well we just don't want anyone to have rights we don't know civil rights for anybody no no no we can't have any of this it feels sometimes horrifyingly loud because they have so much money and capital to pour into fucking this industry like David said before like there's no one on the left who just gets a fucking check like I know there's the George Soros meme or whatever that shit doesn't happen you know like you are basically at the whim of Patreon and everyone else is willing to fuel your little entertainment empire and we're so fucking lucky and blessed that we can do this but at the same time it's like I don't get the fucking Koch brothers phone call you know I don't get the fucking like the fact that Steven Crowder what was it like 50 million for four years that's outside of external sponsorships that's like that's just willing to produce your internet show and it wasn't enough for him he turned it down yeah that's true there's no research it's all and he's not even forget even the research and all that he's a terrible he's terrible on camera he's terrible there are people that are much more enjoyable to listen to who I mean I can't think of any of them but I imagine there are people that are much more enjoyable actually talented and gifted Alex Jones is a better entertainer as a person Joe Rogan is more he's a much better interviewer yeah so it's Crowder is like fucking talentless and and no research nothing offers nothing and offered 50 million over what was like three years four years five years they just completely insane like just completely insane to turn that down yeah it's it's very it's an unfair world like this like this month I've been talking about how I've made zero dollars because I've been demonetized I haven't even done a sponsorship okay so but I'm still still lucky enough to be in this position to where I can do this as my job I think you get a raid shadow legends you get one pass to do a raid shadow legends where no one can fucking it would be right emails this week I get them every month but I don't want to have to play it though it doesn't look good I'm just being honest though I will say if I was someone for what is that that game called the honkai star rail or something that one looks okay it's like a turn based RPG but it's another like you know one of those you know pay to win but still it's more fun you know to be fair I would do I would sell out for tears of the kingdom I would do an ad for tears of the kingdom for sure because I played it I endorse it he is he's doing an ad right now nice oh I love that that's amazing I got two Zelda shirts online and this is one of them it's pretty sweet yeah I love it so you guys you guys are supporting a company that's very hardcore against people doing basically using the console however they'd like in terms of hacking the console this is not a Nintendo shirt this is actually I think Dracula bite is what was it that happened there's a guy who there's a guy who like created some like hacking Nintendo is terrible when it comes to streamers too right yeah oh yeah they're very they're they're out of their minds when it comes to all that stuff I think one I think one of the people they sue that they have to give them a part of their paycheck the rest of their life basically yeah that's insane I think that has to do with the modding or something that he did in terms of that stuff it's overboard it's it's crazy yeah yeah but I mean with that being said objectively speaking Zelda tears of the kingdom is a masterpiece so you can't help yourself can't fucking help yourself lawyers didn't make that game artists made that game and that game was fucking incredible and look let me just say there's no ethical consumption under capitalism don't come after me I'm like 30 hours in the hours melted away it is completely amazing I haven't checked how far I am you can get lost it's so good you can get lost hey if you know I played here to the kingdom when I researched my Illuminati videos for the weekend there's also like there's an amazing amount of art that is made just because people are huge fans of that property like I curtailed as worlds within worlds within worlds Simpson Sonic all these other things where people are making full video games with soundtracks playable characters they make movies animation music and all this is just being done out of love like people are just creating all this incredible art it's nuts no profit incentive yeah people are talented yeah okay DeSantis we've got to get to that so this week Ron DeSantis announced that he wait there's some crackling there's some silence oh wait that's his twitter space announcement that he is running for precedent he actually so this was leaked to the press a day before I think it was leaked I don't think they announced it it was leaked to the press a day before the actual announcement that he'd be doing this partnership with Elon Musk on twitter twitter spaces and they would be launching he'd be announcing his presidential run and I have so I have a video that I found on this and then I'll get to Trump's reaction as well but bender since you're super in this this world with with twitter do you want to give people just kind of like an overview of what the hell happened yeah sure so Elon Musk did this twitter space with Ron DeSantis to set up to set up to launch Ron DeSantis presidential campaign and apparently they did no work at all to ensure that the twitter space would stay up the weird thing about this is that they don't seem to have settled on a talking point as to why things screwed up they set the stage here Elon Musk sets up this twitter space I was in there very early on and I noticed that around 250,000 people in the room that's when there started to be issues now they they held the space for a long time like they started it so people would join but they didn't do anything for like 1015 minutes so people could join but like around 250,000 people my app started freezing twitter closed out on my app numerous times around that point I had to keep going back I had to keep relaunching the app and then going back in the space then finally at around like 350,000 people I think they started to talk a little bit but there were so many issues of people cutting out and literally at one point Ron DeSantis got booted booted from his own campaign launch and I think at the end of it like it reached a max of like 690,000 listeners but again this was a 21 minute because the recording was available at the end although Elon deleted his tweet sharing that recording at the end there was a 21 minute recording that included no launch information voices cutting in and out over and over again people being booted it was basically a 21 minutes of silence in them talking about the tech issues and so eventually I had to relaunch the twitter space using David Sacks's twitter account and they claim the reason they had to use David Sacks's account if people don't know David Sacks is this tech VC who was one of the people who became you know Elon Musk's simp when the transition was happening during the acquisition right after the acquisition providing free advice and help to Elon Musk's to take over twitter this guy is also a Ron DeSantis funder he's held fundraiser for DeSantis so David Sacks was going to be the moderator anyway but he actually ended up launching the space on his own account and according to Musk the reason was because he has so many followers on twitter him creating the space overloaded the servers and I think that their like talking point was like wow Ron DeSantis so many people wanted to listen to you that you melted the servers this is like the type of shit you hear from like corporations in like 2008 when like the internet the social media stuff on the internet was brand new and no one knew what this shit was we are at the point now where you have taken part in like multiplayer video game events with like 12 million people playing at once you've taken part in video live streams with 3, 4, 5 million people currently watching if not more and twitter claimed that 600 some odd thousand people and really I should go with the lower number because that's when the problem started 250,000 people just listening to an audio only conference call basically was so much I said this I said this on the majority part earlier today Ron DeSantis is historic presidential campaign launch with something that FDR was doing fucking 90 years ago or the king of speech with the fucking fireside radio chats Ron DeSantis has done right like oh yeah deal with before I forget Matt one thing David Sacks tried to act as if they accomplished something like oh the majesty the numbers like you don't believe we're hosting such a historic event like number one they're lying about the numbers being historic in any such way and then number two it's clear to me that twitter's numbers are fucking bullshit they're bunk any advertiser who's advertising on twitter should immediately be suspect about the analytics and metrics they're getting from this company and I'm not singling out twitter's the only one who's done this social media companies have done this Facebook got into a shit ton of trouble they came out and said it was an accidental flaw on the system when all those publishers were pivoting to video because their facebook video numbers were blowing through the roof and they were like holy shit we all gotta make video now and then years later facebook came out and I was like turns out you guys actually were only getting 20 or 30% of those videos views you actually thought you were getting our numbers were messed up but twitter seems to be purposefully doing this right now Ian Miles Chong tweeted out because I pointed out how weird it was that they're acting like this was historic when just last month twitter did a twitter space with Elon musk and the BBC do you guys remember that BBC interview it was a huge failure on the BBC's part but they held it on twitter space and I was in there it was like a midnight on like a random day last it was like a Wednesday night at midnight and they had I was in the chat at one point something like 2 million concurrent listeners in the chat and I was like oh man that's great 2 million that's a twitter record for twitter spaces but then Ian Miles Chong tweeted out today that the Santas actually had the record because everyone knows the twitter space numbers were having issues during the BBC interview and those numbers weren't real and I was like I didn't hear that where did he hear this and then Elon musk replies to him and goes true so yeah yeah I don't think people have seen that I don't think people have seen that their numbers the owners the owner of twitter I mean first of all I don't get why you would do that other than to pump up the Santas like if Elon musk ready to shoot his own platform in the foot to help prop up the Santas integrity or whatever it's very bizarre to see that and then second of all and I reported this today in an earlier piece earlier today twitter has removed the video views metric from the videos on their platform I don't think a lot of people have noticed this twitter used to show how many views now this is basic stuff every single video platform, tiktok, youtube facebook they show the video views and yes I've talked about the numbers being wrong with these platforms before but then they end up actually fixing whatever the issue was when they discovered but the video views are available publicly for all to see it's a very important metric for a number of reasons for the advertisers it lets them know hey this platform is one to advertise on and also it lets them know which videos and which creators to advertise with it's such a dog shit fucking video platform it's the worst I like if I had any alternative to using twitter for a video I will go somewhere else it like it fucking glitchy cuts in the middle sucks but here's the thing though twitter has all these metrics on their tweets and this one metric that everyone obsesses about is the tweet views metric because it's the highest one the tweet views metric is the stupidest fucking metric on social media because a tweet is basically first of all it's not a blog post it's not a video the effort of viewing a tweet is literally it shows up on your feed that counts as an impression it's not something you could even control if the twitter algorithm feeds you a tweet in the for you you know the for you tab from someone you have no interest in the fact that it shows up on your screen counts as a tweet view count it adds a plus one just from the fact that it's showing up on your phone with you doing nothing you didn't go to it nothing that's a tweet view that's an impression so that's a bullshit metric to begin with but before they remove the tweet the twitter video view count metric people were using the tweet view metric on tweets with videos embedded in them and trying to say oh look that many people watched our video but if you actually looked at the two metrics side by side it would be like you know three million tweet views 100k video views because just because a tweet shows up on your screen doesn't mean that person is going to end up actually going and playing the video and I should add as an aside here too that on twitter a video view count is added if someone watches just two seconds of the video so if you scroll by and it auto plays and you don't scroll past fast enough in two seconds of it plays on your screen that's a video view count you just added to that video so that the Santas campaign is out there today using the tweet view count saying they got 22 million views in 24 hours on their video announce on their campaign video announcement but they removed the video metric from iOS and twitter for web already thankfully if you have the android app and haven't updated it yet the tweet video view metric is still there and people have sent me the screen shots throughout the day the 22 million view metric that the Santas campaign is boasting about which is really just the tweet views is actually just 5 million video views so they are not doubling not tripling quadrupling the number of views the video has actually received and saying that's how many people have watched the Santas's big announcement it is shady and misleading as hell and I don't see how any serious video platform cannot show the actual video view metric on the videos and take themselves seriously you just can't because they are not a serious video platform and this has to be at least part of the reason why the Santas campaign decided to partner with twitter for this announcement because they either they know the numbers are fudged or they think they are going to do amazing numbers because all the numbers they have seen are fake they are able to pretend that this is a massive launch when the real massive news was that this was a complete disaster in terms of his twitter spaces and so I do want to get to um Ron DeSantis and his actual announcement in like video form because it is so bad I just want to get your impressions on this and then I'm going to get to Trump's reaction as well because it is Trump is in rare form right now Trump is a terrible person we all understand this but when he is attacking the right it is wonderful he does such a great job it is so enjoyable he is a shitposting god I said fashion on fashion is my favorite violence all the pundits have to battle each other in their own mini wars like the quartering was fighting Ben Shapiro on twitter today over Ron DeSantis I missed that beautiful our border is a disaster crime infests our cities federal government makes it harder for families to make ends meet and the president clowners but the crime is a choice success is attainable and freedom is worth fighting writing the ship requires restoring sanity to our society normalcy to our communities and integrity to our institution truth must be our foundation and common sense can no longer be a common virtue Florida, we prove that it can be done we chose facts over fear education over indoctrination law and order over rioting and disorder we held the line when freedom hung in the balance we showed that we can and must revitalize America we need the courage to lead and the strength to win I'm Ron DeSantis and I'm running for president to lead American combat I'm Ron DeSantis how long does he look like I'm coming to lead I'm not sure if any of you saw this but I did a video on Ron DeSantis sounding like the rabbi from Seinfeld and I swear to God it's come out even more in this announcement video I'm just gonna bring up a clip I used in this thing here, hold up so here, right at the beginning actually no, let's go Republicans need to shake the culture of losing that's developed in recent years I felt that George was somewhat of a loser deserved to be married first the time for excuses is over often times in life there are problems and just as often there are solutions it is the exact same cadence and the whole joke with that rabbi is that he's just like a boring rabbi and Ron DeSantis just has no charisma, he's absolutely terrible he has the anti-charisma did you guys see the video they posted of his announcement from the twitter space but they edited the audio in with a bunch of random shots of stock footage of Elon Musk it's one of the weirdest videos I've ever seen it truly is the most insane campaign related video I've ever seen it makes no sense it makes zero sense it's so weird I'm surprised it's still up it is so bizarre wrong one hold up I feel like Lance has got to see this too where'd he go Matt really quick I wanted to ask you I saw this at the top of Reddit yesterday is it true that somebody was accidentally made co-host in the spaces and then they ended the stream on twitter? I missed that because it was during the one where they were having all the tech difficulties so I was getting kicked out and my app was dying I don't know if that's true this is one that Matt was talking about an honest reckoning about wait is that the right audio? that is the right audio it's their video go to the actual click the bottom one wait no that's not it that's not it did they change it? no this is it I'll send it to you you have a different one? this one's also weird though first we need an honest reckoning about what happened during COVID and the only honest reckoning is that all of those agencies all of the elites the public health establishment they failed use this one though because this makes more sense because it's actually his campaign announcement which makes it even weirder it's not him talking about an issue with musk or something it's so bizarre because it's straightforward this is so weird while I am running for president of the United States to lead our great American combat look we know our country is going in the wrong direction we see it with our eyes and we feel it in our bones our southern borders collapse drugs are pouring into the country our cities are being hollowed out by spiking crime the federal government is making it harder for the average family to make ends meet and to attain and maintain a middle class lifestyle and our president well he lacks vigor he's the founder in the face of our nation's challenges and he takes his cues oh god how weird is this video it makes zero sense why would you put these weird I can tell you as a former video editor what went on here because it's Elon musk and musk and DeSantis talking they pre-made this video of montage of both of them just thinking oh these two guys are talking here's both of them on video without thinking of the actual content of the video play the beginning one again too one of the cuts to musk in the very beginning is pretty funny because he says something funny hold on go ahead well I am running for president of the united states to lead our great American combat look we know our country is going in the wrong direction we see it with our eyes cut to musk we know our country is going in the wrong direction we see it with our eyes cut to musk with a big smile on his face this is really bizarre here's the real interesting thing about this people are knocking DeSantis for launching this on twitter but let's just say they saw this as a marketing opportunity connect DeSantis with musk knowing that musk is popular with the right right now use twitter space to get people talking about oh he's using this offbeat sort of social media platform feature alright let's say that's their game plan use this as a marketing tool they did not have anything prepared though in terms of oh we should also like professionally record his audio locally while he's doing the twitter space we should have some sort of behind the scenes video of him conducting the space with Elon musk and then ripped the horrible quality twitter space recording audio for his frickin presidential candidacy announcement how insane is that even Donald Trump's people would have had someone recording Trump on the phone or something and like had him mic'd up to an actual like professional mic to get the actual audio recorded if Trump had decided to do something that insane they did not prepare all who is running this campaign who is behind the the Santas campaign it's very amateur and that's why Trump responded with some amazing videos so social I assume this is in relation to the twitter space's one but I guess him generally this is an Elon rocket crashes there you go so good roofless but boomer tier I like it it's a good balance between boomer and roofless yes the spaces he's calling him Rob now this is you've got to play the fake spaces event that Trump shared that's the insult Rob he's calling him he's too powerful he's too powerful I just say these are record falls the question is Rob just young and experienced naive or more troubling is he a fool who has no idea what the hell he's doing we already have one of those in office we don't need another one we need MAGA make America great again that's what we want make America great again we have no choice this is the last shot we've got at it if we don't win this time our country is in really big trouble thank you that's why you're in this situation look at the video look at Trump's video response he's got a few of these out throughout the day today dude has a professional video team with professional high quality audio this is a serious operation whatever you think about Trump it's a serious operation Ron DeSantis Ron DeSantis put out another video that is really bizarre too there's another one that's crazy let me find this one for you there's like someone's holding it handheld it's all moving and everything and he's talking and they clearly didn't mic him to any sort of professional camera to any professional mic it's so bizarre and this guy had months he was testing the waters for months this wasn't a thrown together last minute decision this was just like so bizarre here it is I found it here you go I'll send it to you right now in the chat look at the handheld video just moving all over the place listen to the audio quality there's apparently millions of dollars behind this guy oh no oh my god oh my god oh my god look at the wobbly camera it blokes the internet more like wobbly music this is so weird it looks like they bought an expensive camera they just have someone who doesn't know how to use it they could have easily fixed this by zooming out more and then in editing they don't realize by zooming in and keeping a stable image they don't know just the most basic editing well also based on the visual of the camera this camera most definitely has in-camera stabilization so someone either turned it off someone didn't use it I'm so here for this pettiness it's the best kind I mean this isn't really petty though because we're talking about these guys their whole shit is that they're the ones who have it all together they'll get this company back in tip-top shape and then they you see Ron this pull up Ron DeSantis' website it looks like a fucking Tumblr page it's the worst website I've ever seen and the live donations that come in is actually just you can refresh it as many times as you want the same people keep showing up because they're pre-entered they're not actually live social proof of whose donating look just refresh this is his official presidential campaign page refresh it for a second alright look Mike and Gilbert Arizona, Jacob and Titusville Florida the first people to show up refresh it again the same two people to show it up at the top this is an un-serious name this is a little un-serious country everybody has an error this is un-serious like scroll down it's a Tumblr page it looks like this is a Tumblr page that's what America, that's what's happening oh my what a better what a better oh click the uh someone said the bio page is funny is there a bio page up there click uh click the uh click the arrow right there under hello Santa's third world country with a Gucci belt that was going to say the same thing that's perfect this is the same thing he said in the video it's just a script in the video right yeah it's the exact same script wow oh the thought process was linking oneself to Elon Musk at this point right you know what I mean like a few months ago or something maybe but now present day the stock is so weak it's the worst it's the worst time to invest in the stock it's terrible I'm like what let's watch another Trump video David, before we move on you have to also play the Trump fake spaces oh that's also good that's really good yeah 2017 Ron DeSantis was polling at 5% in the Republican primary for governor of Florida 5% DeSantis had virtually no endorsements and was being drastically outraised by agricultural commissioner Adam Putnam he widely viewed favored he was going to win he was going to win easy he was way up Ron had zero chance of winning on December 21st 2017 a man named President Donald J Trump endorsed in support of Ron DeSantis he's polling skyrocket it's going on me I'm not going to lie Republican primary 57 to 37 he was down so many points and all of a sudden he wins by 20 he was already looking for jobs but he did it because of President Trump thank you very much Ron you know what's crazy I still if we keeping it real like Jesus tell a person for whooping his ass oh of course but next to DeSantis that's why it's so amazing that next to DeSantis he seems like he's professional I really as a person from a little island nation this is offensive I'm sitting there like America I just saw an article yesterday about Kamala Harris going down to the Bahamas to discuss it with us but I think it could help us help yourself and that's what I'm thinking about right now I'm listening to this like look at this look at this and this is a I'm not sure if a fan did this for him or like someone in his campaign but so they got a bunch of AI voices to pretend they're each of these people in this fake Twitter space call and this is actually pretty well done hi everyone welcome to our Ron DeSantis microphone working correctly George can you just wait while we can you hear me we can all hear you George can you just hold on for a second I don't think they can hear me I can hear you fine George I don't think George knows how to use Twitter hello can you hear me now can I please make my big announcement now everyone just just shut up George can somebody just mute George I love this did you try not to cough on okay so how are we gonna Trump you guys guys from the FBI this is not a private call this is a public Twitter space everyone can listen in god damn it this is so fucking good anyway guys we invited everyone to this Twitter space so Governor Ron DeSantis could everyone just shut the hell up so I can make my announcement okay you go girl wait the devil is gay so what everyone in this call is gay guys can we please just calm down he's so anyway guys I just wanted to announce shut up would you please shut up already I'm running for fucking president okay yeah we kind of already know congratulations Governor well that concludes our Twitter space for today thank you to all of our hold your horses Elon the real president is gonna say a few words I'm gonna kick your ass very soon Hitler you're already dead Dick Cheney sounds like you'll be joining Hitler very soon Klaus Schwab and George Soros I'm putting both your asses in jail and Ron DeSantis can kiss my big beautiful 2024 presidential ass Trump 2024 baby let's go in case you're watching later the music's cut out you may not hear that last part but that was very I gotta ask all of our American friends here what's going on what's going down with American politics right now because I'm confused you know first of all it's pretty clear that you know Trump saw this meme created by one of his crazy fans and just ripped it like that's not an official camp like they didn't come up with that they're not that unique it's not supposed to come on his team it could be hiring social media people who know how to you know play to the base like oh yeah they got their meme guys for sure yeah I mean listen that's quintessential Trump in terms of like having no qualms sharing something like that and being cool with that can't imagine a DeSantis fan showing up with something that creative you know it's right they don't have any talent I mean I don't think DeSantis is cut out for this stuff his team is not and he's not either like Trump's gonna eat him alive and that's for the best that's quite frankly for the best yes I was thinking that like I was thinking it was so weird that he chose Elon Musk the only person with less charisma than him to help co-host the spaces event but then it's like wait no it makes sense because it makes him seem more charismatic because Elon Musk is the only person with less charisma than Ron DeSantis I think Ron DeSantis' whole game has been trying to appeal to like show I'm the more evil like look at all the evil things I can do on the right old stream so I think because Elon Musk has made himself to speak in of like the left hates him right now and the right apparently you know in his mind I think I'm sorry my fault but I think in his mind that would probably like help with that image he's been trying to foster I think in making himself this kind of like right wing I think he's misguided in application I think that was probably the thought process there I mean from the camera what strikes me about the announcement of the video is just that it's very standard politician like from Ron DeSantis it's just like he's not he doesn't stand out any more than Scott Walker did or that like Jeb White did and he's doing this with his fingers that's weird well you see sub-order is open and woke is like what the fuck yeah there's the hands can we also just really entrant on everyone's mind and memory that this man was the torture whisper as in like he was the person that got on a buffet for sure like there's any question about that he's the bad cop in the torture scenario that's fucked up that that's fucking grim you don't want someone like that assuming power in any way shape or form which is why it's so enjoyable to see how much of a failure this this campaign is rumor starts somebody did Ole do a nip slip no I had my blunt in my hand oh my god I was wondering what was going on there I had no idea what would happen in my hand oh can I have my blunt visible probably I don't know it's a two and a half hour show I doubt that they'd see it somebody would probably have to like the algorithm will catch that somebody could report it probably but it's not are you not allowed to tweet on youtube because you can on twitch really no they're very strict on youtube at least historically they have been maybe they've they've relaxed on that stuff I don't know even if you just put like smoke in the thumbnail like it could get you demonetized it's happened to me before yeah I mean that might not be the actual reason why but like I've done that and it's you know green tech smoke and yeah they weren't happy but I mean it depends Jen Kathy in the chat says David talk to your chat show it right now at the very end we do super chats I can't be reading the chat we'll try to have a conversation it's not gonna work out for me but we will do super chat sorry I miss what you said to people asking is weed legal in Canada yes 100% legal you can just walk into a fucking store by the weed and then and then repeat David I watched one of something you did this week on your show I don't remember what it was I watched some video of yours I showed it from my algorithm and I think you were talking about covering somebody asked you something Canadian and you were like oh you know I cover like American or I don't cover Canadian or something as much right that's what you said like you cover American I forget what context I was in but yet and I was like what's the back story there because like I you know I don't I don't cover anything to Hamion but that's because I live here you know what I mean that's how that happened how'd you end up in America's business more than Canada I got into politics because of like John Stuart and like the young Turks like that's you know we're talking like 15 years ago like that that's I grew up as a I mean I worked in I was I worked in marketing I worked in television I was a video editor I worked in actually I worked in radio after I started doing YouTube but um I had a radio show like yeah so I brought me on it was cool that's right yeah I had you I think you're in my first time on radio um so it's just honestly it's what interests me like that that's it's what interests me by the way like like Americans you should realize that what happens in your country like I want fucking socialism to take over Bernie Sanders to get power and stuff like that because it'll affect the rest of the world you are number one baby you're the hegemonic superpower you are the imperial force like you have the most fucking money in your military you have the most amount of military bases globally you control the world like you won so that's why like other countries like it's it's pretty like normal for other countries to be really invested in American politics yeah and yes my parents are listen my parents know my if you saw my daddy as a Twitter believe it or not and if you start you would have no idea you would think it is a nice um older white Democrat gentlemen in America so my parents watch America my parents know everything happening every fucking thing happening in American politics they are hardcore stinking Democrats don't know shit about what's happening to bombers and since that don't make no fucking sense and it never did so literally as I'm watching David I was like my mama and I would like David I see what's up happening I can remember to ask about that because what you doing in the business if I were in Obama so it would be poor behavior in politics I asked my daddy something about behavior in politics he's like I have no idea big opinions big opinions he's like when are they going to end Donald Trump do you think he's going to go to jail again I'm like daddy Lance is right though especially like culturally there's a massive impact all this anti-transition I'm sure it's already starting in Canada I know it's going to get even worse like it's always whatever is happening in the U.S. always has an impact on us later on Pierre Paulier the new leader of the conservative party in Canada is very much in the same cup in the same cloth he sounds like Ron DeSantis they're both fucking losers yes 100% 100% and it sucks because he's doing like the flashy playbook right now where he's dipping into a whole bunch of things like ah crypto currency we have to decentralize from the Canadian economy and then after that we have to basically go after the LGBTQ because it's indoctrination wokeness right and it's like this stuff probably would not be front and center if it wasn't like you know in right wing media circles and being successful in right wing media circles but not being successful electorally because at the end of the day it's pretty fucked up to be like hey by the way women you shouldn't have bodily autonomy that doesn't play well in the whole people getting out to vote kind of shit so that's why a lot of the shit on the right it's like it's extreme they're going so fucking far and so fast being fucking like hey by the way we should like eliminate transgenderism from society and all this kind of stuff it's fucking it's like to see as an outsider to see someone in a different country as scary as fuck I'll just say that there's nobody have on the bingo anything about lines and and a trans support monologue because you have to add it because lines always make sure it gets long I swear to God every episode I be high minding my business and suddenly I hear they want to eradicate transgenderism every time every fucking time and they get like snaps me back like who we talking about last one finally you have to put it on the bingo that's a good square yeah I hate that like we influence Canada and it's not the other way around can we copy Canada for once with healthcare social politics I remember before we had marriage equality in the United States it was blowing up on social media there was this interview with this old lady from Canada and I think at that point gay marriage was legal for like 10 years or so it was just like very matter of fact she was like oh well you know I think they deserve love too and we were just like all my friends were sharing that see this old lady from Canada gets it the society hasn't been destroyed let's copy Canada but now it's the other way around the dumb fuckery trickles over to you all which is terrible because you know we may have to flee to Canada one day and so I want to leave all the dumb fuckery behind well I mean the US is getting a little better at least it appears it is with legalization around marijuana of course it depends on the state but it is getting Canada did it back in what 2018 and nothing changed at all now you can just buy it legally that's the only difference well in Oregon we have we decriminalized all drugs it's not a perfect system because we do need to invest more like in treatment and whatnot but just decriminalizing all drugs it was massive and we voted to do that so you know it really does depend on the state like it's so crazy that one state can seem like a different country compared to another state like Oregon compared to Mississippi two different fucking worlds it's insane that we're the same country all right I don't know why but because of Mike's rant I all of a sudden got that Tarzan disney's Tarzan song stuck in my head two worlds one family oh my god remember that and then my friend Sticky doesn't smoke he makes it a point to let us know that he doesn't do anything but does that seem like the behavior of a sober person that gives you what the fuck about what Mike was talking about gave him Tarzan because he's talking about two different worlds he's talking about two different worlds it's the behavior of a parent that watches Disney movies that's what the behavior is that soundtrack my parents bought me the CD and that was my favorite song on that soundtrack when Tarzan came out on Disney well speaking of Disney we got the little mermaid movie coming out this week I'm going to see it on Tuesday it looks cute I will say it looks it actually looks really bad but that's because all Disney's live action looks really bad it's funny because like the racists were pissed about what's her name again Halle Howie Bailey people pissed about her but I've seen the trailer I've seen clips she looks like she's the best she seems like she's going to be the best part of the movie the music is going to be really good she 100% from the clips I saw she 100% just owns the aura of Ariel from the cartoon I was like holy shit I see why they cast her she feels like Ariel like her demeanor her voice everything so the race is of course man at the wrong thing it's everything else that's about that movie Sebastian looks very very bad it just seems a little weird to be I mean maybe you get used to watching a movie all three those three the three animated animal characters Sebastian Flounder and Scuttlebull they look horrible what are they thinking they look horrible it's just weird because it has to be realistic Flounder is supposed to be a little chungus I don't want to see this weird ass looking realistic fish he's cute when he's a little chungus a little chungus is a cute way to call little chunky things are you just learning about big chungus the meme right now in real time in 2023 is that happening I'm not sure what this is either I don't know what this is what you two I can't hold hands here this is too internet to be real right now I do want to say this one thing about Little Mermaid I did a deep dive into the background of all the racists losing their shit the background is great for them yes right spoiler alert I mean okay angry so for anyone who doesn't know canonically just for the facts over the feelings there have been non-white non-arian Anglo-Saxon mermaids in the history of the show multiple different people have played in both the live musical, the live presentation and on the TV show that was done of the live version who were not white lots of different people who were not white have played aerial canonically historically all the precedents are there you're just racing but it doesn't even matter though it doesn't even matter though you don't have to engage in these fucking bigots on the marriage with the other fictional imaginary characters have been depicted fucking grown ass men worried about what their children's film is doing oh my god all the annoying itching off of the little fuck it it's so bad so okay you all know that I am an adult fan of lego so I watch a couple of youtube videos creators they get sets early and one of them got a little mermaid set and was just commenting like a new little mermaid set was commented about oh yeah this looks really cool and that video was like the first video they ever did that got like almost 50% dislikes just because they didn't denounce the little mermaid I'm like oh my god in the fucking you're old lego fans they all live online right so they all go from like thing to thing to like downvoting giving bad reviews like they live for this shit like it's such a sad life to address the racism in the lego community okay it sucks this isn't a meme it's real life it's real it actually made me so depressed wait wait wait Ole is trying to say something go ahead yeah no I said I've been black for quite a while so none of this is surprising to me it's really how they give it up I don't know if y'all know news y'all but people feel passionately about how they don't like this earlier in this chat someone when I hadn't talked for 30 minutes was like I love everybody except the loud one blah blah blah with the music on camera on camera you know who actually speaking of the little mermaid movie you know who I have heard that sounds like she's going to ruin the movie friggin aquafina how did they she get in that movie I didn't know she was in it yeah she's a controversial character she didn't sound bad in the commercialist scuttle she sounded like she's supposed to voice a bird that's right blah I thought you were going to say Melissa McCarthy no I like actually you know what someone pointed out you don't hear anyone complaining that Melissa McCarthy as um uh what's her face oh my god I'm having a mental block Ursula she's not a fucking squid in the movie she's an octopus they changed her completely oh I didn't know this no one's complaining about that now no one's complaining about that also scuttle is not a seagull anymore he's a different kind of bird are you making shit up no scuttle is not a seagull no scuttle is not a seagull in the movie you can change him from a seagull he's not a seagull in the movie he's um he's hold on he's a northern gannet he's not a seagull in the movie why would they want him to be a seagull it appears like there are scenes in the movie where he goes underwater hangs out with them underwater that's not fucking playing scuttle hangs out with them scuttle won't kick it with them what are they talking about that's why they changed it seagulls don't go under the water but these northern gannets apparently do go underwater and that's why they changed him he's not a seagull I hate to break it to you Ole but scuttle is not a seagull how do you know all this I don't understand why it's necessary he's a family man I don't remember scuttle being under the water kicking it with people and sebastian's not Jamaican anymore he's now Haitian I made that part he was never Jamaican he was never Jamaican he was a trini man and that was the guy who voiced them and then they because no one respects Caribbean at all in all of the stuff they were doing I respect the Caribbean they really don't the whole of academy Hollywood no one does it's just a thing but I really I mean obviously who gives a fuck ultimately I'm not going to Shapiro this about but I always this is in the Bahamas right so there's always that whole lore around we have that in the Bahamas always felt very in the little mermaid obviously in the Bahamas and you know we got a lot of fucking seagulls that's what we have we have a lot of goddamn seagulls just like scuttle so I don't know what this fancy bird is but I know it's not in the fucking Bahamas not by Atlantis I know that so anyhow whatever but I will be seeing this movie on Tuesday I love Halle Bailey I am hype but what's funny is that the little mermaid the original cartoon that was like the first cartoon when I was a kid like three or four that I got obsessed with and I think it's possible it turned me homosexual I'm not 100% sure but it's it's possible little mermaid don't move on what part of little mermaid turned you homosexual was it the song kiss the girl I mean what little mermaid had niggas remember that I remember it like this show like was it the mermaid the skin driving talk maybe maybe I know exactly what you're talking about yeah no I think the first first of all I had all kind of like TV and cartoon crushes when I was a little kid but the first time I really realized like I was gonna really make my granny spend a bag off my crush was when I watched Star Wars and I saw Hayden Christensen I'm talking about I don't know what the fuck happened in Star Wars with them modern times my me and my granny so I was in theaters loved him loved you want to know who my big fake crush was as a teenager it was the girl from Transformers Megan Fox because everybody else was talking about her how hot she was oh my god I love where she's so fucking hot fuck yeah I don't mean any of this shit I mean Megan Fox is an attractive woman she was my I remember like debating my friends they're like no she has toe thumbs I'm like I don't care she's fucking hot I'm like you know what's a really good movie with her though Jennifer's body if you haven't seen that one I did see that I don't remember anything about it that's a great movie that's like a cult classic I feel this way this is a real opinion Jennifer's body it's a great movie I feel like you're back in jokes okay oh no now you can't tell what I'm being serious or not no Jennifer's body is a movie you've been having some taste wait wait me me explaining that Scuttle is no longer a seagull it's not a take it was a lot like I just I don't know I've been smoking yours it's not a crazy thing I see that you're right the world has changed but it's not crazy to me on impact well folks it's 10 30 oh is it already wow this episode went by so fast time flew we spent like three hours on the Illuminati we didn't even finish oh um I I don't know are we saying after show they got them they got them you should stay for the after show there you unfroze sorry there we go Olay I didn't hear what you were saying and I was saying we'll stay for super chats oh yeah yeah you're staying for super chats some of them were addressed to you at the beginning Olay alright let me just start from the top here also real quick thank you to Olay and Lance for coming back when we got super chats about the Illuminati stuff when we were not prepared to discuss that thank that's what solidarity looks like because we were like sitting there like yeah nice I heard this different on his broadcaster voice and I said oh fuck it actually what sucked about them coming back is the three of us couldn't be like yeah man this is all Olay and Lance's idea I mean they fucking just I know people there were people who saw it like still they had me and Lance back together and I will say I did sound like episode one me and Lance were both Leo's and people didn't want me to say nothing but the Leo hate is real I feel deeply I'm like Lance I never used to believe in astrological signs until this show Leo Leo and Leo love I love Leo's for a lot this chat here from Parker he will finish off Celtics by the end of this episode they currently Celtics are winning 181 so it appears the sweep is not going to happen even though Florida Panthers did sweep Carolina in the NHL playoffs but you are wrong Parker but thank you for the super chat Mike Thompson says yay I can tip again thank you Mike Lemonhead says president president Sunday for six member I don't know who president it's a political streamer I believe who does political stream interesting this is from Lee Baratignore thank you all for this was during the Illuminati thing I guess people you know from what I saw people were appreciative of us being just straight up with them I mean that's what thank you Lee thank you especially Ole he called me out twice last because I I appreciate I appreciate Lee saying that oh I recall Lee was calling you out and me right she was doing that in David Dole's chat and then she jumped to my chat when she decided to be nice and friendly to you guys that's just how it works well then that proves all bullshit no it's that proves that the chat the aura and the scenery of the chat changes people like when they're in your chat they just feel like being evil and nasty but when they're in my chat the good natureness of my listeners just overwhelms them with kind of heartiness and joy and to become a good person I would put my chat up against yours any day Matt Infinite content says okay Dons can we discuss how Talcom X Sean King is back up to his incessant scamming again Ole should speak on this why should Ole speak on this why should Ole speak on this yeah I don't follow Sean King I have no idea what's going on with Sean King I'm assuming because I'm perceived as a black activist I guess that comp don't forget to watch the little mermaid this weekend oh there you go you should speak out why don't you say anything about this oh this one's for me Rachel K with a $50 super chat bless you good folks here's a bit to show my appreciation and to help get Matt a new mic solidarity yeah I don't know what's been going on my mic lately I guess maybe it might be something with my mic it's been happening on multiple shows I feel like it's probably just the interface you're using to stream as opposed to the actual mic itself it also might be this I don't know what it's called it's the audio thingy I'll have to check it out it sounds good right now so who knows I can't tell why it goes out when it does I need a mic right here I have a good mic that I record but I'm going to buy a different one Tara I saw it I responded this is Binder oh it is Vex I'm poor but here's a dollar for each of you well I thank you Vex I'm going to keep all five of those Binder I'll send you my cash app after sounds good I'm just kidding Adrian with a super chat I need to get some sleep but I really appreciate you guys addressing the Blair situation with so much grace much love to you guys look at this beautiful stuff coming out of my chat I really appreciate that I love it should I take him out no right I think he's gone completely if he comes back I'll add him back did I get this one already yes I did Adrian CosmeDragon says bring on leftist power couple Crystal and Kyle to make the case for Marianne Williamson that's a good idea to have them on I'm definitely going to have them on if they want to make the case for her sure how Marianne Williamson could come on and make the case for Marianne Williamson if she wants to if you say that B be serious I am I seriously have no problem talking with her she seems like a nice person my qualms aren't even with her to the individual my qualms are with her campaign in terms of there being no real movement backbone behind it and if you are a leftist insurgent campaign you need that otherwise it's going to be yeah yeah great Tokyo Hans Tokyo Hans with a super chat thank you Tokyo Hans thank you for introducing Ole to us she is amazing can we get a weekly one minute segment on what she is eating on stream every week you get something delivered I guess you should take a minute to let us know what delicious dinner you are having I was eating oxtail today when my camera was off I had oxtail dinner tonight it always makes me so hungry especially when you are eating french fries it makes me want french fries I also love that Ole knows that we do this every Thursday at the same time and she has not moved her dinner time she is smoking obviously it's not a choice I made the five products also bender oh zero pe the super chat I care very little about the Blair stuff to be honest I wanted y'all to get into the Anna Uber DEI story what is the Anna Uber DEI story don't ask we don't care to stay in our business wait Anna Casparian oh I don't I really didn't know is this the Karen bike thing is that what this is oh is that I have no idea sensitive over there y'all know we gonna see a clip that smart we don't need more drama people super chat for me again Wanda watching this drama unfold makes me glad I am a boomer that didn't have youtube when I was young first I only watched leftist mafia because I follow and love Matt but now I follow all of you and love you all it's a really sweet comment that's very nice it would be really funny if Wanda did follow this up with a super chat that's like including Illuminati and now I'm going to defend her and say why you should bring her back hahahaha hahahaha zero pe says I vote adding cyber demon which is Andrea later as we said we're not adding a six person but I did see several suggestions yeah I'd love to bring her back though something plays games and drinks scotch says making up for that demonetization lmao well I wasn't demonetized but thank you of I think you've got to send Mike that $20 that's crystal clear it's not even meant for you it's funny Canadian so sounds like it's Canadian money for my mods so I think I brought up the fact that Aiden Ross said that he done a thing related to family member and then you monetized and so one of my mods was like here's $20 so yeah yeah Samantha Baker says I like the idea of rotating guests who need platformed or Zade or foreign and shout out and love to Olay David's chat loves you don't forget it I saw that comment earlier and I was when I seen this comment I was made a conscious decision to stay around for super chats to acknowledge it thank you thank you that's sweet and yes I love Lauren that is my that is my brother from another mother foreign he sent me an audio note morning morning talking to morning to you I just want you to know I've seen you out here all over the beach in McKinney not because I saw it in the timeline because I saw it in group chats so just wanted you to know I was watching him play Tears of the Kingdom I love him he's great George says I appreciate your response about Blair hopefully we can move past it now also LOL at that Ethan guy going on gay dating apps to hunt Pettos yeah yeah I'll be bringing that up next video about him man's coat says would you guys have justy smith on your show I don't know who that is I love Dusty Smith Dusty is like an X right wing Republican guy who did a big pivot to the left and now basically has a channel that tanked aggressively because he was just like I don't agree with any of your views anymore I don't like the things that you say I won't do this anymore I will say I thought it was going to be a joke because Dusty Smith does sound like a sexual innuendo LOL yeah it doesn't sound like a real person yeah Dusty Smith is like a huge trans activist now really good good guy oh good dude I retract my horrible comment nope I'm not doing no more controversial back stories you started off with huge right wing keep that sorry we're going to be very hypersensitive folks about guests for a while Parker says like and David have you come close to finishing Tears of the Kingdom it is so amazing so I feel like I've gone through three temples I think there's like I don't know four or five I'm taking my time now like I want to explore the world more I want to um the game is just great in terms of like you could spend hours and not really make any progress in the story so I might do a little more of that Mike how close are you to finishing it no we're near close I did I completed the fire and wind temples I've unlocked all of the lookout areas haven't really explored the depths that much I mean I've been down there those are huge too it's like a whole other map down there it's great I'll be playing it for months probably and I'm not going to like rush it I'm gonna take my time I'm really enjoying it though oh my god you two enough with the Zelda Christ go on so we can have a whole fucking episode on Zelda it is taking every ounce of willpower to not talk more about it but I'm raining it in for you all thank you for the super sticker one bowl 390 Catherine this is for you Vinder oh Catherine in the super chat you must continue to call them out are not paying attention to them doesn't make them disappear it can only make them bolder right this was I think in reference to when I think Mike was talking about how um sometimes it gets hard and you got to just sort of step away from it for a little bit absolutely I mean that's why I think all five of us do what we do we're steeped into this crap and there's no way out we are in it we are in it yeah that's clear Brian says irony is conserved as protesting drag events because back in the day the church mandated that female characters and plays be portrayed by men in drag were barred from acting on stage that's a really interesting point I didn't think about that one of the most common pronouns in Shakespearean time was they them radio friendly radio friendly box for the super chat the Santas at all using alternative facts for turnout yes they they're really hard I mean it's and this is for online social media metrics I mean I actually think that's even sadder than Trump being like there was a million people at my inauguration like this is so much sadder that's so true like Trump was like I swear this was this many people live there in person on the in the front of the White House and the Santas team is like we swear there were this many people on the internet tuning in to our twitter space live chat I love your the Santas place also I love the idea that the Santas broke the internet because the twitter space went down like that's the equivalent of me being like oh yeah my website was so popular it went down no one pay attention to the fact that I stopped paying my web host like engineer or stop this is also yours crew herks with a super chat I've come around on the sanctimonious over me ball rod Trump worked on you and he won you over that's what Trump does same I think we're just hearing him more often so we're more used to it but he could do better than the sanctimonious but hearing him say it over and over has I guess the repetition has won me over so I agree with this have you noticed that the Santas has changed how the his last name is visually portrayed so it looks less ethnic have you guys noticed that no it's capital D it's capital D E capital S and then you know the rest of his name they've stopped doing that they've stopped treating it like it's Ron de Santas now it's just like Ron de Santas it's one it's one thing now you know what I want to point out just take a second to point out that when Trump came up with a slogan and expression and name the sanctimonious and people didn't like it immediately and encouraged him to change that messaging he just continued on until everybody was sold just let the record reflect he didn't change the sanctimonious so anyway there's a lesson in there folks even though he's wrong I think he would perform better with a different one Bayphoto says after de Santas historic announcement Americans everywhere are asking themselves what's a twitter space and who the hell is David sacks very definitely I think a lot of people asking that question it was so funny I just got to say one more time David sacks was the one in the twitter space that was just like absolutely incredible astonishing numbers I can't believe what a moment is the majesty the sheer majesty of the numbers sir like Corpse husband gets more viewers every single day just on a stream on youtube at like at any given point he gets like four times as many viewers as that all the time by the way if you're a leftist who's not made with David sacks you'll probably know him as the guy who founded that platform call in that a bunch of I think Ole you used it right and by the way he just sold it to rumble he just sold it to rumble he just sold call in to rumble that's an excuse for me to just wrap that up the last yeah that's fine man I'm really taking everything away from Ole I took away her her twitter verified badge I took away her call Harry Potter the little mermaid no I didn't take away little mermaid but I did take away Harry Potter Harry Potter was a group that anything else that you like Ole for Matt to ruin I'm sure he'll find something what mic are you using did you know that guy was originally Adolf Hitler right hand man listen I'll wrap it up this is also a dander oh forresto mintero with a super chat landlording breaks brains like the stanford prison experiment so it should be an excommunicable offense so this is unequivocally against like any human being that is a landlord but I get I get it I understand the intellectual I just have to put this isn't a super chat but someone in the chat this just went past me and it's really funny in terms of what I'm going to ruin for Ole next oxtail is cancelled you you don't have the power do you know it's from an ox did you realize that I say model ox ox almost says I look forward to watching guys every week thank you so much love that these really polite comments and just nice comments they're so appreciated I just I don't know how much you realize folks so just we love them translation Mike is saying give me more super chats I can't take any can't take any oh you're still you're still you're still the monetize yeah I'm still out I'm still out almost every single member I'm done to 50 so oh my god oh that's because they can't they can't renew it's not like they're purposefully leaving you they just can't renew yeah so if I'm demonetized when they're scheduled to renew it just auto cancels I don't know if they're going to be restored but um yeah yeah and it's not even like patreon where they give you the email addresses you could like email blast everyone and let them know like yeah I'm back you could re-subscribe those people are just you know yeah I didn't know I was because I I post early access to my videos like if they're going to go out in a couple of days I'll send them out to like youtube members I was doing that and none of them on youtube could see it only the patreon people and I'm like man these aren't getting as much views before they go up as they usually do yeah that's because nobody has memberships now so yeah yeah yeah that's crazy hope you're back online soon with that stuff you had that many youtube memberships by the way that it rivaled patreon like in terms of your um it didn't rival patreon patreon is still more but patreon has been going down over the years and youtube has been going up just because it's more convenient I think damn I gotta turn on youtube memberships yeah it's just easier you know if somebody wants to get like early access or you know you want to directly communicate with them it's just right there but then again you have youtube that can just pull the rug out from under you at any fucking point so I mean it's it's worthwhile to keep it but I would recommend patreon over it for sure Kelsey thank you for your your super chat Andrew this is uh for you binder oh andrew s if all members are here you can split my donation format if you answer this question and we won't be doing that but we'll we'll answer that if you if you can create a wrestling persona would you be a babyface or heal and what would your gimmick be oh I would 100% be healed easiest easiest I don't know what that means it means the bad guy that everyone loves in wrestling would you be the bad guy or would you be the good guy power me whatever that would be a bad guy it's all fake right yeah I'd be a bad guy that'd be fun oh the gimmick wise this is the hard one I guess it's just the two of us we have to take team as the heroes they're all the bad guys no I'd be a bad guy oh shit did you just tell us did you just tell us did you just tell us I'm sorry I thought I went without saying in terms of acting I feel like there's so much more you could do with that I agree gimmick is hard but you need to do us time for that one we'll answer the gimmick part next week we gotta think of all the characters that's not something we could Rachel thank you Rachel it is for me but it's a question for Mike do you take interview ideas for pride month I mean sure I haven't really been doing any interviews outside of the leftist mafia but yeah for sure I'm happy to hear any recommendations dynamite editor says this is for Mike I want to know that things can get better everyone on discord has banded together and will teach you how to use it you don't need to be in your boomer bubble forever thank you thank you that discord can be discord's easy to use if it's set up properly like I think we should work on our discord a little more and you know have encourage proper chat in there because the way it's set up right now I'm not the biggest fan of it but I think we can make it I looked at it and my eyes just like glossed over I'm like fuck there's just a ton of chat it's really confusing that's all there's too many channels yeah if you're one of my mods by the way and you want to be a mod on discord reach out to me and then I'll forward your info to bender or Lance whoever does it and stuff yeah whoever wants it can take over I keep saying we need to have a show that we all watch that we can talk about I think they'll be awesome if you have a tendency to watch the same shows funny enough but the rest of y'all need to get on fucking board so let's all agree on one WWE Monday Night Raw every Monday night 3 hours 3 hours of pro wrestling baby let's do it last episode is this week of succession last episode series finale I'm two seasons behind never watched it shoot yeah it's good I should start a wrestling podcast someone said let's go wrestling podcast in the chat I do need to start a wrestling podcast I should do it we can all have our own little like Matt can do wrestling I can do video games with David yeah we can all have our own little things it also helps our brains just to not have to focus on this shit every day it's a good little break maybe like some extras in the future extra little side shows that we can do if you pay Miss Siren $20 Super Chat jeez love you all and had a great laughs Ole is a gem I have a gem and you got $20 for it another $20 for me another $20 for me jeez hey guys can we schedule more leftist mafias throughout the week this is quite lucrative for me Nick Bauer the $20 Super Chat here's my vote to get RM Brown back on the show for one day or perhaps permanently as a sixth member if it works out I think we should definitely have him as a more regular guest I love RM there's definitely guests we can have on on a more regular basis in terms of a permanent member though there's too many guys on here Ole is already outnumbered if we did add a sixth it definitely couldn't be a guy it's really like there's too many white dudes it's just over saturation yeah social lessons if you guys invite TJ Kirk on please who's TJ Kirk Lance the amazing atheist he's had a turn over the years hasn't he I remember he did not wasn't a fan of mine back in the early 2010s well because I'm pretty sure he was like an anti SJW guy wasn't he he went from progressive to that you know what I've had enough controversy for a life I'm not accepting anybody with any no one pivots I don't give a fuck what the explanation is prior right wing shit no we're gonna be on frame with them and here's what we're gonna do we're gonna have a process for each guest we're gonna announce them two months in advance you all can provide us with all the research and then we'll vote to make a decision democratically on whether or not to bring them on so that's how we'll do it we'll do the whole thing background checks especially yeah joining left is mafia today to talk about his recent turn to the left David Duke former man Matt Claremont says American politics are more interesting American right wing are trying to overthrow the government Canadian right wing are protesting 15 minute cities on an overpass well I would not downplay the Canadian right wing right now especially with Pierre Paulia he's he has a very strong potential of becoming prime minister so yeah it's a threat not a good situation we also have crazy extreme people here that aren't politicians like it's not it's not all roses go ahead I just want to quickly explain this if anyone doesn't know this about Canadian far right fascy shit the current leader of the conservative party in Canada has met multiple times with members of Diagon it's this really weird ass like far right fucking conspiracy theorist militia style thing where they believe one corner of Canada to Florida should be its own country on like a diagonal and like it's so weird that he took photos with this dude they shook hands he's a fucking white supremacist and then the leader of this fucking white supremacist shit said about his wife he joked about raping his wife and only then Pierre the leader of the conservative party in Canada condemned him it took him joking about raping his own wife for him to publicly be like ah so these are kind of fascy shitty people yeah imagine joking about raping your own partner and like if he wants to take Florida I'm not going to argue with him but that is just so it's so weird yeah it's fucked this is for Bender alright Alma Gasling with the Super Chat here's some money saving Ole and Mike's till monetized aww there you go man Bender has a lot of payments to be making after the show I'm just doing pretty good today yeah for Resto Mintero with the Super Chat Anna went on a rant about Karen hunting well I have no idea we're not going to kill people we're not going to answer for everyone's fucking positions on things was this about the city bike thing because I had to take on the city bike thing the minute I saw it and it was simply people got to stop touching this stuff before all the stuff gets out because you're all going to end up circling around into stories that first of all shouldn't be national news a dispute between two people like that you put on national display until there is a national issue about it until there's something that comes out that should make it a national issue and I didn't see that in that video so I didn't touch it there was no information about it and then when information did come out you had conservatives lapping up these claims that the woman who tried to take the bike had receipts for the bike but none of them dared to show the receipts so you didn't have any proof you were just going off of what the New York Post was reporting from her fucking lawyer automatically red flag you can't touch it and then now apparently you have the sister of the boy who had the bike coming out with her own receipts and those look very interesting and legit but again you need to see the whole picture and we don't have it yet so until number one the story shouldn't have been national and number two once it did you really should wait until you get everything before you come out and say anything about it honestly this is also for Binder Rose with a super chat how about weekly skews what is that I don't know I was hoping you would know I'm thinking maybe it's a typo I have no idea Samantha Baker thank you says Ole I feel so special you stayed for super chats because you saw my previous super chat crying face heart I love it and love you amazing sweet thank you thank you I love that awesome that's really sweet yeah that's very wholesome turbo son with a super chat there's an update on the city bike incident with an interview from the boy and his family addressing things from a small news outlet called news one wanted to get out because of how they are being slandered yeah that was another aspect we didn't even hear from the other side of the story like you know conservatives were wrong for jumping on this people who you know we needed to get the whole story and we just didn't and people were shouting off their opinions on it before anything come out I mean I think it's legit to point out that what she was doing clearly as a white woman sort of weaponizing her behavior you know her whiteness on this these these black kids is certainly an issue but I think there's better examples of that particularly ones where they actually get the police involved because then in my opinion it becomes a national story when they get the police involved until then it's really just a dispute between two people that really shouldn't be put on a national national display for you as well oh Argonian bum with a super chat this one is for Mike sorry Matt though much love to you too hey you're giving me the money that's all that matters is there somewhere you upload your songs no I haven't thought about doing that maybe I should though Brian says they then there is something that more people need to learn about it's always grammatically correct and it's gender neutral everyone wins i.e. a mechanic often stores their tools in a toolbox yeah definitely I mean it's it's not hard to understand I'm surprised that there's still confusion about any of this oh I should say really quick going back to the songs thing I wanted to give a shout out to Lord Magnus he does some of the songs some of the music for the outros that I use go check him out because he actually has an album on Spotify and there's some really really good beats zero says that's why I suggested a trans woman trans representation I mean in terms of future host yes yes we're sticking with five Lance has got that cover for what are you my new host no trans writes and everything I'm just joking it's a joke because Ole mentioned earlier how Lance always has he needs to put together like a well like an essay piece with all of his background and expertise on it so I was just making a callback back to the vendor Amy Kamori with the super jet Aaron Brown guest please he's definitely come back on as a guest I think he should come on it as a regular guest for sure also bender oh wow Jose Jarbaldi love you all thank you sorry if I messed up your last name last one for bender then last one for me after this oh Rose they are two white dudes so never mind wait who was this in did you say something earlier you're two white dudes so never mind oh yeah I oh no I'm not I don't know what this person said sorry I don't know but that's not two dudes I'm not sure last one here type says the left needs to collaborate with professional psychom journalists I'd love to see any of you interview someone like Cara Santa Maria on RFK Junior's anti-vaxx nonsense yeah actually I used to listen to her podcast her science podcast yeah there's definitely I agree with you I think that the left can probably collaborate more with science communicators I agree oh I just saw Rose I'm sorry I just saw what Rose was mentioning the weekly skews is a show and I guess it consists of two white dudes we can have them on we're not anti white dudes we're not anti white dudes speak for yourself yeah alright that's it we're good oh wait no sorry there's one more this may have just come in Nathan thank you for the five bucks no message very nice for all your generosity everybody Nathan knew you wanted to jump off the stream David so he gave you his money and didn't say a word Nathan can feel my exhaustion through the camera this is fun people we'll see you all next week some people are asking in the chat why
