THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 141 — Where Would You Live? MAGA Video Games? Fake NFL Players?

00:00:03 Speaker 1: My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro-American student organization in the country fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. 00:00:26 Speaker 2: You got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as. 00:00:28 Speaker 1: Young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a Turning Point USA college chapter. Go start a Turning Point USA high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade. Most important decision I ever made in my life, and I encourage you to do the same. 00:00:45 Speaker 2: Here I am. Lord, use me. 00:00:48 Speaker 3: Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. 00:00:56 Speaker 1: Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of The Charlie Kirk Show. a company that specializes in gold IRAs and physical delivery of precious metals.

It's time for this week's edition of Thought Crime Thursday, or of course Thursday, may be listening to this on Saturday when it drops. The reason I mention this is because here, as we record it, as we commit all of these thought crimes, the Lindsey Clancy case, as has been reported in the. 00:01:40 Speaker 2: Last couple of weeks, we've been talking about it. It is still out. 00:01:44 Speaker 4: The jury is still out in that case. They are out for deliberations. We're hearing reports about potentially one holdout juror. And again, you know, if you're listening on Saturday, perhaps like we said last week, perhaps this is precluded. Perhaps this has ended and some verdict is in. But as far as now, there is no resolution yet and no end in sight. But as we keep an eye on that, we know that one thing like taxes is always inevitable in this life. And is that every week on Thursday, there will be thought crime. 00:02:21 Speaker 2: So. Who do we got today? 00:02:22 Speaker 3: We've got Tyler. We've got Andrew. And you've got me. And I don't know. 00:02:26 Speaker 5: I thought we were going to get Russ, but I guess Russ has decided to sit it out, which means he's missing out. 00:02:30 Speaker 6: I just deported 38 illegals. 00:02:32 Speaker 5: Yeah, because like 10 minutes before we went live here, the White House went live with their Arcade.gov. 00:02:39 Speaker 3: I just saw this. 00:02:40 Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh. It's so good. 00:02:41 Speaker 3: It's so amazing. 00:02:43 Speaker 5: I think we have Caboose trying to play one of them so we can get footage. But if you go to Arcade.gov. Tell everybody what it is. We've got six very, very basic arcade games to illustrate. 00:02:55 Speaker 2: I think you mean amazing and classic arcade games. 00:02:59 Speaker 5: Six very amazing classic arcade games. 00:03:02 Speaker 3: Arcade.gov. 00:03:03 Speaker 5: You've got Rio Run, where you have Tom Holman, and you round up a conga line of illegals at the border to deport them back to their countries of origin. 00:03:12 Speaker 3: When you capture them, they actually put on orange jumpsuits. Yes, they do. It is so amazing. Which game should we throw up? 00:03:18 Speaker 5: You should throw up Rio Run. That's the border one. 00:03:21 Speaker 2: Is that the snake one? 00:03:23 Speaker 3: This is the best one. We can put pressure on him. 00:03:28 Speaker 5: We can't do that because then all of my secret info will be revealed to the world. 00:03:31 Speaker 6: What am I supposed to do? 00:03:34 Speaker 5: You have to get all the illegals in the orange jumpsuits. 00:03:36 Speaker 6: Come on. 00:03:37 Speaker 5: You know how to play Snake, don't you? You've already got a few illegals. 00:03:40 Speaker 6: No, I'm not a boomer. 00:03:42 Speaker 3: This is like on the Trump phone when it comes out. This will be the version of Snake. 00:03:47 Speaker 5: How many did you get this time, Andrew? 00:03:48 Speaker 6: What are you at? Well, I was doing Flappy Bill, the fly again. Oh, okay. 00:03:53 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a Flappy Bird clone. 00:03:55 Speaker 2: No, Real Run. Real Run's where it's at. 00:03:57 Speaker 6: I'll show you my Real Run. I did 18. I just got distracted. 00:04:02 Speaker 5: I had 59 illegals in my conga line to be deported. 00:04:06 Speaker 6: It does get actually harder as you get on. 00:04:08 Speaker 3: It does. It speeds up. 00:04:09 Speaker 6: You speed up more and more. It speeds up and your tail gets longer. 00:04:11 Speaker 5: But I'm probably going to go back and tonight try to get it where I fully beat it. Like every square is filled with the illegals before they go back. 00:04:18 Speaker 3: There is a build the wall that's a Tetris. 00:04:21 Speaker 5: Yeah, that one I think might be a little busted. You don't delete lines or anything, which makes sense because nothing in the wall would be deleted. 00:04:27 Speaker 2: No, real run is. 00:04:28 Speaker 6: The best one. That's the funny part. 00:04:29 Speaker 3: That's the funny part about it. You literally can't. The only way to win is to lose. 00:04:34 Speaker 6: It says fill your kids' Trump accounts. That's pretty sweet. 00:04:37 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you're just catching various. 00:04:39 Speaker 7: Sort the school lunch to make America healthy again. That's very fun. RFK is very excited. Then the Border Patrol, which somebody said it looked like Joe Biden. Obviously, it's not Joe Biden. The guy didn't care for deporting illegals. But we do think it's Tom Homan. And then protect the border from the coming horde. 00:04:56 Speaker 6: This is fun. 00:04:58 Speaker 7: And then fly the bald eagle down the National Mall. I guess he's, like, trying to fly a bill, and there's all these pitfalls. The eagle gets destroyed. 00:05:06 Speaker 2: No. 00:05:07 Speaker 6: It's at 21 right now. 00:05:08 Speaker 3: This is John Thune. 00:05:10 Speaker 2: This is getting dangerous now. I'm locked in. 00:05:13 Speaker 3: Look at this. Uh-oh. 00:05:14 Speaker 6: See, that's where it gets sticky. Oh, tight. 00:05:16 Speaker 2: He made the tight turn. I love that tight turn. He can make another tight turn here. 00:05:19 Speaker 3: Oh, no. I just remembered how much I hate Tetris. 00:05:23 Speaker 2: He's trying to show off now. 00:05:24 Speaker 3: I definitely hate Tetris that doesn't. You can't win. I'm now doing the school lunch one. I'm like some sort of weird boxer. 00:05:29 Speaker 2: There is no way to win, Treacherous. 00:05:30 Speaker 5: I guess we have Mike Tyson is scanning the school lunches. 00:05:33 Speaker 3: I have to remove all the candy bars. 00:05:36 Speaker 5: I don't know. 00:05:36 Speaker 6: You can win, Treacherous. 00:05:38 Speaker 2: Seriously? 00:05:38 Speaker 5: Well, I don't know. There's like a black boxer guy, so I don't know who else it would be. 00:05:43 Speaker 6: I don't know what this is, but I just. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, I see. 00:05:49 Speaker 3: Why didn't they make that RFK? 00:05:51 Speaker 2: Oh, did he lose? 00:05:51 Speaker 5: Oh, he lost it? 00:05:54 Speaker 6: Oh, I see. You're just supposed to get rid of all the bad stuff. 00:05:56 Speaker 3: Why didn't they make that RFK? They should have made that RFK, and he made groans like, eh, eh, eh. Yeah, yeah, they should have. 00:06:05 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want an RFK to be. 00:06:06 Speaker 5: Oh, I let a bad item through. I let a bad item through. 00:06:09 Speaker 6: Okay. 00:06:10 Speaker 5: Anyway, all I'm going to say is all of you guys should 100% go to arcade.gov and look these up they're uh they're pretty entertaining and it looks like. 00:06:19 Speaker 3: I have two points of feedback that should be rfk yes okay and the flappy bird should be uh it should be ilan omar it should be like hold on hold on let me finish my ilan omar yes navigating the corrupt system and giving money. It should be stacks of money that she's moving through in Minnesota. 00:06:41 Speaker 2: Here's what you'd want. 00:06:42 Speaker 5: I'm trying to think of what you'd want. They should do a root beer tapper one. Did you ever play root beer tapper back in the day? That could be something like maybe catching fraud claims or something. 00:06:55 Speaker 3: Tapper should be tapper. 00:06:57 Speaker 6: They need to have a fraud detection. 00:06:59 Speaker 3: It should be tapper. It should be Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris. getting served drinks, and it should be real drinks. And then they need a Donkey Kong, except instead of Donkey Kong, it should be Nancy Pelosi's husband with the hammer. 00:07:13 Speaker 2: I want one. 00:07:16 Speaker 3: That's a blast from the past. I want one. It should be Nancy Pelosi's husband with a hammer working his way up and trying to avoid getting caught by the San Francisco police. Wait, I got it, guys. 00:07:30 Speaker 2: You remember Pac-Man? 00:07:31 Speaker 4: Okay, we'll do Pac-Man, but it's actually James O'Keefe with glasses on, and he's trying to catch deep staters, but it's all guys. 00:07:40 Speaker 3: It should be him dressed up as Ms. Pac-Man. No, no, no, no, no. 00:07:46 Speaker 4: It's still him with glasses on. 00:07:49 Speaker 2: As a guy trying to catch the deep state. 00:07:52 Speaker 5: I genuinely think a great one would be you'd have maybe Nick Shirley or someone representing the admin. It's Root Beer Tapper. It's people coming with fraudulent claims to get welfare and Medicaid fraud. And they would have different levels in Root Beer Tapper. So one could be the Medicaid office, and then you have the daycare office. And they're coming, and they're all immigrants trying to scam the system. And you're throwing a camera at them or whatever to push them back and expose the fraud. I want them to make that one. A Pac-Man one would be really good. 00:08:19 Speaker 7: I feel like you should have some sort of, like, ice one where you're playing, like, cars that are trying to ram you or something. 00:08:29 Speaker 3: Dude, Bubble Bobble was one of the greatest regular Nintendo games ever. Two-player. I played for hours with my best friend. Bubble Bobble has, like, I think you have hundreds of levels. And it gets progressively far more difficult. 00:08:47 Speaker 4: And, and I just got to throw it out there. Um, you know, we absolutely need one. Uh, let's see, instead of, that's like a double dragon, like you need your side-scrolling, um, street brawler. And obviously it's gotta be like, you know, call it like double. 00:09:04 Speaker 3: Dude, I've got a deep cut for you. 00:09:06 Speaker 2: Double dragon or something. 00:09:08 Speaker 4: And have it, have it be Antifa guys that are running up at you. And then you just play to, uh, Two federal officers just trying. 00:09:15 Speaker 2: To keep peace. 00:09:16 Speaker 3: Here's a deep cut. You guys might remember this. 00:09:18 Speaker 5: I know about this because there was a carousel skate area for roller skating or rollerblading that was in Sioux Falls. It might still exist, actually, but it had an arcade. It was Snow Bros, and so you were these guys who had snow powers, and you'd throw them at bad guys, catch them in a giant snowball, basically. 00:09:39 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:09:41 Speaker 5: And then you'd kick it and it would defeat the enemy. You just take it and you make it ice bros. Exact same thing. 00:09:46 Speaker 3: As snow bros. 00:09:47 Speaker 5: They still have the snow powers. And you catch the illegals. You get them in the giant snow trap. And then you kick it and they get kicked out of the country. And then you have to avoid crying AOC. Yeah, exactly. The bosses would be that. 00:09:59 Speaker 6: This would be. 00:10:00 Speaker 3: a lot of potential here. 00:10:00 Speaker 6: Here's my idea. 00:10:01 Speaker 7: I think you need to do Street Fighter, and you just have to hope you don't get paired up with a trans fighter. 00:10:10 Speaker 6: So it's all female fighters. Or NBA Jam. 00:10:15 Speaker 2: He's on fire. 00:10:16 Speaker 6: It's like Royce White and Ennis Cantor. 00:10:19 Speaker 3: That could be funny. 00:10:20 Speaker 2: Call it WNBA Jam. 00:10:21 Speaker 3: WNBA Jam. 00:10:23 Speaker 5: And all of the players. And you can be Caitlin Clark. WNBA Jam, it's all men. Caitlin Clark and what's her name? 00:10:29 Speaker 2: Sophie. 00:10:31 Speaker 3: Sophie Cunningham. 00:10:31 Speaker 2: Sophie Cunningham. 00:10:32 Speaker 5: And, like, you have them, and, like, all the players keep fouling you, and. 00:10:35 Speaker 6: Then there's no penalty. No, but it's, like, actually. 00:10:37 Speaker 7: It's actually, like, girls on girls, but then if you know the secret pass code, then all of a sudden. 00:10:40 Speaker 5: Yeah, you get the guys, and they just. 00:10:41 Speaker 6: Right, right, right, right, right. 00:10:43 Speaker 5: And they're twice as fast, and they can dunk. 00:10:45 Speaker 6: They're just dunking everybody. Then you can bring in, like, that French. 00:10:48 Speaker 4: Wait, and the final... The final game is, of course, you have to play against, like, the 14-year-old boys team. 00:10:54 Speaker 5: Dude, I know how you do the Street Fighter. You do the Street Fighter one, and, like, what would happen is you could... Honestly, you could be President Trump, and then you just are bowling over all of the Democrats that he beat in 2016 or 2024. Yeah, that's true. Anyone who ran for president. Or, of course, you could be VP Vance. VP Vance versus AOC. 00:11:18 Speaker 7: I think we need to have a swim meet, too, where how far can Riley gain swim or something like that, and then just goes up against. 00:11:26 Speaker 3: I think the Street Fighter is a good idea, but it has to be the meme versions of everybody. 00:11:31 Speaker 7: Yeah, no, it's like you get like Chuck Schumer. He's like your first opponent. He's very easy to beat. 00:11:37 Speaker 2: Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. 00:11:38 Speaker 3: Actually, it should be, we should have a Mario Kart version, and then we should have a Super Smash Bros. And like what's the character that can turn into anyone else? Kirby. Is it Kirby? 00:11:52 Speaker 7: Yeah. 00:11:54 Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be actually a really funny like scenario. 00:11:58 Speaker 6: Who can turn into everybody else? 00:11:59 Speaker 5: Kirby, yeah, Kirby, yeah. 00:12:01 Speaker 6: I know, but who would that character be? 00:12:03 Speaker 3: Wait, who were you just talking about before that? 00:12:06 Speaker 6: I don't know. 00:12:07 Speaker 3: Vance? 00:12:08 Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. 00:12:08 Speaker 3: No, no, no. Marco Rubio turns into all the memes of himself. 00:12:14 Speaker 7: Oh! 00:12:14 Speaker 3: So he's like the Kirby. 00:12:15 Speaker 6: That is funny. 00:12:15 Speaker 2: That's pretty good. Yeah, that's pretty good. 00:12:18 Speaker 3: So Marco Rubio. It's like, now Marco Rubio has to be. 00:12:20 Speaker 7: They should have a Rubio meme builder, though. Dress him up in all kinds of different clothes. 00:12:24 Speaker 2: You'd have to call it what? Instead of Kirby, it would be like Ruby. 00:12:29 Speaker 3: or something couch rubio you. 00:12:31 Speaker 7: Could you could do like a hedgehog and every time he spins his face turns into abdul el sayed trying to avoid talking about hassan piker. 00:12:40 Speaker 4: Oh gotta go fast all right everyone here's one you guys remember you guys remember rampage remember that the the game rampage dude so you call it dsa rampage but every single city you start it's just already destroyed because it's run by the dsa. 00:12:54 Speaker 3: That's funny You actually have to rebuild the city. Yeah, you actually have to rebuild it. 00:13:00 Speaker 2: And the monsters are like, hey, there's nothing to do. 00:13:02 Speaker 6: They show up. 00:13:04 Speaker 3: It's like everything's already broken. 00:13:06 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:13:07 Speaker 5: SimCity, but you're just like you're building new ballrooms and monuments. 00:13:11 Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh. 00:13:15 Speaker 6: It's literally. 00:13:16 Speaker 2: Trump SimCity. 00:13:17 Speaker 6: Trump SimCity. 00:13:19 Speaker 7: Uh, you could have like a, um, fixing up the, you could have like a, uh, one of those apps that, uh, help you, uh, women, uh, with their fertility. And it's just like all about AOC's fertility journey. 00:13:32 Speaker 3: Ooh, lots of ideas here. 00:13:34 Speaker 6: Um, hold on, hold on. This is actually fun. 00:13:36 Speaker 7: Like what's, what's, um, Gavin Newsome, Gavin, Greasy Gavin's, uh, uh, something like, can he, can he squeeze out of tight spots? 00:13:45 Speaker 5: Yeah, you could do, you could do, Trump's Golden Dome Missile Command. Do you ever play that Missile Command game where they're shooting down Iranian missiles? 00:13:55 Speaker 7: I forget what the name of that one is. It's very pixelated and you're just moving the. 00:14:00 Speaker 5: The one where the ICBMs are coming for your city. It's the oldest video game ever made, basically. 00:14:06 Speaker 2: Missile Command is the original game. Star Fox and do a SpaceX thing. 00:14:09 Speaker 3: You could do a Zelda spin-off. 00:14:18 Speaker 5: What would you be doing? The legend of. 00:14:21 Speaker 6: Yeah. 00:14:23 Speaker 5: The legend of RFK? 00:14:24 Speaker 6: I don't know. I feel like Brandon Gill could have a character. 00:14:28 Speaker 5: We need to explore this further. 00:14:31 Speaker 2: You remember Paperboy? 00:14:32 Speaker 4: You could do fake news Paperboy where it's like he's throwing out the New York Times to everybody, but then you have to get away because every time somebody reads it, they get mad and they try to come after you. 00:14:47 Speaker 6: And you're, like, angering the town. 00:14:49 Speaker 7: You have to tie in all of Trump's, like, libel lawsuits or something. 00:14:54 Speaker 6: You have to tie those in. 00:14:54 Speaker 2: Oh, so those would be, like, the bonuses. 00:14:57 Speaker 3: No, no, no. 00:14:59 Speaker 2: If you hit a libel lawsuit, you lose points. 00:15:02 Speaker 5: I think this Trump savings one is supposed to kind of be your, like, duck hunt. You're, like, kind of clicking all the flying pieces of money to fill the Trump account. 00:15:11 Speaker 3: But anyway, everyone should check this out. 00:15:13 Speaker 6: It's a lot of fun. It's really fun. 00:15:14 Speaker 5: They have another one coming out. I hope they get the Build the Wall Tetris one to work so that you can score points in it. 00:15:18 Speaker 2: Space Force Invader. 00:15:21 Speaker 5: There's so many things you could do with this. 00:15:22 Speaker 3: It's a lot. But another topic. 00:15:25 Speaker 7: They actually do link to election integrity, Save America, Trump accounts. So you can actually click it, and it takes you to actual government stuff. So there is a serious aspect to this. 00:15:36 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think that this sort of stuff, it does not take that. I suspect this was maybe a weekend project by someone in the admin. 00:15:43 Speaker 3: It's pretty fun. 00:15:44 Speaker 5: It's a very cute one. It reminds us of, you know, they actually have, they set another record for deportations last month, and I suspect they'll set another record this month. So they're getting a lot done. But speaking of getting things done, this is a topic I was really excited. 00:15:59 Speaker 4: By the way, for the record, I have thought of so many of these that I don't want to say publicly. 00:16:03 Speaker 6: Yeah. No, me too. I've had to censor myself. I will leave those in the chat. 00:16:07 Speaker 5: Fair enough. 00:16:07 Speaker 6: This is thought crime, though. 00:16:08 Speaker 3: True enough. 00:16:09 Speaker 5: True enough. 00:16:10 Speaker 3: No, I know. 00:16:11 Speaker 2: I know. But I'm just going to say it. I'm just going to leave it at that. That's the bonus paid episode. 00:16:16 Speaker 6: You can play Democrat doctor. 00:16:18 Speaker 3: Just kidding. 00:16:20 Speaker 2: All right. 00:16:21 Speaker 6: Let's go. 00:16:22 Speaker 3: All right. 00:16:23 Speaker 5: So I was really excited to talk about this. This went viral on X over the weekend and during this week. And it's because someone made a website, which is just simply, where would you live? I think it was where I'd live is like the name of it. And you just fill out that long and hard. 00:16:39 Speaker 2: Yes. 00:16:39 Speaker 5: I noticed that. So, yeah, where I'd live dot com slash maps. You can get one for neighborhoods. You can get it for major U.S. cities. You get one for every country in Europe, every country in the world. But the one that went really viral was just map of the United States, and you can fill it out and say, I'd definitely, maybe, never, whatever you want, 100% live in each U.S. 00:17:04 Speaker 6: State. 00:17:04 Speaker 5: And I just sent it around and said, guys, we have to fill this out and. 00:17:08 Speaker 3: Say, where would you be willing to live? 00:17:11 Speaker 6: Who's up first? 00:17:12 Speaker 2: Tyler. 00:17:13 Speaker 7: I mean, Russ filled his out, but he's not here. Tyler, let's throw up his B-roll three. 00:17:20 Speaker 5: All right, so that's the Tyler map. So red means definitely wouldn't live there. Blue means absolutely. 00:17:26 Speaker 3: Would live there. 00:17:26 Speaker 6: Light blue means. 00:17:27 Speaker 5: Light blue is like, you know, considerate, open to it. Yellow and brown are kind of the medium ones. 00:17:32 Speaker 6: Is it brown? I'm so colorblind. 00:17:34 Speaker 3: So yellow is maybe. Light red or whatever orange it is is like would consider it. Red is, I'm sorry, no, would never, would not. No, orange is probably not. Red is categorically not. 00:17:47 Speaker 2: Red is not. 00:17:48 Speaker 3: And then light blue is we consider it. And then blue is. 00:17:52 Speaker 6: Wait, you would live in Maine? 00:17:55 Speaker 5: Forget that. You'd absolutely live in Jersey. 00:17:57 Speaker 3: That's a top five state for you. Cape May. Okay. 00:18:02 Speaker 5: But it's in Jersey. 00:18:02 Speaker 4: So that's like one thing that I was going to say about, you know, certain places. Like, Tyler, I knew you were going to say that about Cape May. 00:18:10 Speaker 3: But like. 00:18:11 Speaker 4: It's like if there's one space in the entire state that you would live, would you still say absolutely? 00:18:17 Speaker 2: That's why I was. 00:18:18 Speaker 3: Kind of confused about it in terms of the exercise. 00:18:20 Speaker 6: You didn't put a maybe. You put absolutely. 00:18:22 Speaker 3: You put absolutely. But I'm saying the maybes are like, are there maybe a place that I would live? 00:18:28 Speaker 6: Maybe. 00:18:29 Speaker 3: If the blue states are there's a place in that state, I would definitely live. Okay. 00:18:33 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I figured. 00:18:34 Speaker 6: Tyler, you. 00:18:35 Speaker 4: clearly belong on the east coast you're already mentally here my friend and i think you just need to join. 00:18:40 Speaker 3: Us that's not true i have to come i could i can make it work in all the light blue states even though i was like maybe questionable i'm. 00:18:48 Speaker 6: Surprised you put california as a as a yellow. 00:18:51 Speaker 3: I mean there's somewhere i could live there yeah like where you're from i could like i would not balk you. 00:18:57 Speaker 6: Put new hampshire new hampshire in there too. 00:18:59 Speaker 5: I would live in new hampshire in a heartbeat really New Hampshire's got a lot about it. 00:19:03 Speaker 3: That's nice. 00:19:03 Speaker 5: I'm more surprised, like I said, Jersey. Also, you're pretty down on Texas. You have Texas as orange. 00:19:09 Speaker 3: I do not. I'm not a big Texas fan. Nowhere in Texas? Not a big Texas fan. It's a pretty big state. I've been to a lot of places in Texas. There's not a lot of places I can envision myself liking to live. 00:19:18 Speaker 6: Nevada, light blue. Thank you. I'll take it. 00:19:20 Speaker 3: Nevada, I could figure it out. Vegas is not that far off from Phoenix. It's very similar. 00:19:27 Speaker 6: No, especially on the western side of the city. 00:19:31 Speaker 3: I'm a big, I like conveniences, so I like conveniences, or it has to be extremely, extremely beautiful. 00:19:39 Speaker 5: Honestly, the pattern I'm seeing here, I feel like yours does kind of closely match to has turning point related political operations. Like, why is Iowa light blue otherwise? Like, I was fine, but I don't see why Iowa's definitively better than Nebraska. 00:19:57 Speaker 4: Wait, wait, so is turning point just where Tyler wants to live? Is that actually what you've been doing with turning point action all this time? 00:20:03 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah. I mean, let's... No, not where I want to live. 00:20:06 Speaker 6: I mean, you don't really have much in Wyoming. 00:20:08 Speaker 3: But look, I mean, could I find gainful employment with my resume? Yeah, I mean. 00:20:14 Speaker 6: All right, next one. All right, next one. 00:20:16 Speaker 3: Let's do Andrew's next. 00:20:17 Speaker 6: All right. 00:20:17 Speaker 5: He's got yours is like you put a lot of this is crazy. We need to describe this. 00:20:21 Speaker 3: This is crazy. Like he's got all over. This is this is red for. 00:20:25 Speaker 4: Everything in my inside the mind of a madman. 00:20:28 Speaker 5: He's got red inside the mind of a New Jersey, all of New England. You have red Washington, even though you went there. 00:20:35 Speaker 2: Not saying no to New England. 00:20:37 Speaker 5: You have red Utah, Colorado, red New Mexico. But then you have your blue for the other Mountain West states. 00:20:43 Speaker 6: Yeah. 00:20:43 Speaker 5: You're light blue for California. No offense to the Mormons here. You are a California approver. You are light blue on California. 00:20:50 Speaker 7: I sort of, I mean, I moved directly to Phoenix after we lost Charlie from California. 00:20:55 Speaker 3: Is Utah an anti-Mormon stance? 00:20:57 Speaker 6: No, no, no. It's not about the Mormon. It's just too many bad memories. 00:21:01 Speaker 3: Oh, well, yeah. 00:21:02 Speaker 6: I just had to go there for the for the bind over hearing. 00:21:06 Speaker 5: Also, you have Mississippi two tiers lower. 00:21:11 Speaker 6: It's so beautiful, but it's just ruined. 00:21:13 Speaker 5: You have Mississippi two tiers lower than anything else in the South. 00:21:16 Speaker 7: Yeah, because I spent a lot of time in Mississippi and Alabama, and I liked Alabama way more. 00:21:21 Speaker 3: Okay. 00:21:22 Speaker 6: All right. 00:21:22 Speaker 3: Okay. So you have experience. 00:21:23 Speaker 7: I actually could straight up live in Mobile, Alabama very happily. 00:21:27 Speaker 5: I have a friend from Mobile. 00:21:28 Speaker 7: He has described it as a city. Mobile is the most underrated town in the entire South. 00:21:34 Speaker 6: Really? Yeah. It's like water, great food. 00:21:37 Speaker 7: Did you know that the people that ended up doing the French Quarter, I think it was like some French guy who ended up doing the city layout for New Orleans. He started in Mobile. So it was his first draft. And it's still a great city. Yeah, Florida because of the taxes. 00:21:57 Speaker 4: Mobile, I've got to say, by the way, they have Wawa in Mobile, Alabama. And yes, I do know that off the top of my head. 00:22:02 Speaker 7: You know what's funny? I actually struggle with this a little bit. Tennessee, I genuinely do really enjoy Tennessee. And it's not just Nashville. Nashville is actually kind of a low light for me. I like the hills and the horse farms and stuff like that. But Charlie used to always say, I can't stand being in Tennessee. I don't know why, but he just– I mean, he liked the people there a lot, but he just– I remember telling him, like, well, maybe we should move something, like have some operation in Tennessee. He was like, absolutely not, absolutely not. But, yeah, I'm a Mountain West guy, man. But, you know, the Pacific Northwest is too liberal. Idaho and Montana, gorgeous. Wyoming's gorgeous. Nevada's gorgeous, even though it's desert. It's my home state. So, yeah, that's my map. 00:22:45 Speaker 6: Colorado. 00:22:46 Speaker 4: Andrew, of course, hates all the white states for some reason. Why do you hate the white states, Andrew? Are you anti-white? 00:22:53 Speaker 6: That's not true. What are you talking about? New England. Missouri. Missouri's pretty white. 00:22:59 Speaker 3: Not as white as New England. 00:23:02 Speaker 6: You know what? Okay. 00:23:03 Speaker 7: Missouri is probably a weird one in there because Missouri, Eric Schmidt and I went on this back and forth text chain for quite a while talking about all the beautiful places in Missouri. While I was flying over Missouri, I just had the Wi-Fi up, and I was texting. I was like, I see Kansas City. And then I was like, man, this is actually some really beautiful stuff down there. And I never think about Missouri being beautiful. And he's like, man, this state is so beautiful. And anyway, so I've checked it out quite a bit, and it's. 00:23:32 Speaker 6: A beautiful state. 00:23:33 Speaker 3: Andrew's map is basically a red versus blue map minus Utah and California. Yeah. You're very much influenced by... And he's an Indiana hater. 00:23:45 Speaker 6: No, listen, it's too close to Chicago. 00:23:49 Speaker 3: They voted for Obama. 00:23:50 Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, so did a lot of states. 00:23:53 Speaker 7: No, I just got nothing. I don't have anything for Indiana. I've got zero connections. The only person that I'm connected to in Indiana is Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark. Or Citizen Kane from Citizen Free Press. 00:24:05 Speaker 4: Andrew Colvette posting coal again. Posting Colvette. So we call him Andrew Posting Colvette. 00:24:10 Speaker 3: Oh, he's got you there. Colvette. 00:24:14 Speaker 7: But that's no disrespect to Citizen Kane, Citizen Free Press. 00:24:18 Speaker 6: He's our boy. Still our boy, Blue. But he's the Indiana fan. 00:24:21 Speaker 7: All right. 00:24:24 Speaker 6: Leans, levies, wage garnishments, bank account seizures. Those aren't just words. 00:24:29 Speaker 7: That's the IRS taking what you've earned, your paycheck, your savings, your retirement, even your home. 00:24:35 Speaker 6: And it's accelerating. 00:24:36 Speaker 7: IRS notices and letters are up more than 85% in the last two years.

Let's see what the Jacksters got. Okay. 00:25:46 Speaker 3: All right. 00:25:46 Speaker 5: We've got a gigantic wall of for most of the country. An absolute hard no on California. And then Jack is hardcore east coasting it up. He's just got light blue for West Virginia, Virginia, down to Georgia. 00:26:02 Speaker 3: Very straightforward. 00:26:03 Speaker 5: And he's like, maybe for New York, New Jersey, Maryland, most. 00:26:07 Speaker 6: Of New England. Florida is a hard no. 00:26:09 Speaker 5: So your only blues are Pennsylvania, of course, and Maine. Okay, why Maine? 00:26:17 Speaker 2: Yes. 00:26:18 Speaker 3: Because I love Maine. 00:26:19 Speaker 2: It's the most beautiful state in the Union. 00:26:21 Speaker 3: Before you answer anything, Jack, It's very clear you're a 13 colonies guy. We get it. That's it. 00:26:26 Speaker 2: Yep. 00:26:28 Speaker 3: Jack will only live where America was birthed. 00:26:33 Speaker 2: Precisely. 00:26:34 Speaker 3: And Alaska. 00:26:34 Speaker 7: Yeah, because we tried to get you to move out to Phoenix a couple times. Charlie worked you over on that. And you actually thought about it, though. 00:26:42 Speaker 6: No, no. 00:26:43 Speaker 4: I certainly considered it. But that would have been very much like a... like I'm moving for work kind of thing. Not like a, I'm like, like I wouldn't, I wouldn't move for any. 00:26:53 Speaker 2: Other reason than that. Um, like, like in an, you know, in. 00:26:57 Speaker 4: A vacuum, uh, just, just, and that's, and by the way, that's kind of what I'm using is this map. It's like in a vacuum, you know, if I, if I wanted to live anywhere, I want to live Maine or Pennsylvania. 00:27:08 Speaker 2: Um, that's kind of the dream obviously is to, is to like, you know, have a place in Maine, which I don't. and then be able to do summers up there, that kind of thing. So you know what's interesting? 00:27:21 Speaker 4: My family's got ties to Maine, so I've been going up there since I was a kid. 00:27:25 Speaker 2: And obviously Pennsylvania. I just love Pennsylvania. There's no question. 00:27:29 Speaker 4: Plus, I also told Tanya Tay once that I don't think I could live anywhere that doesn't have a Wawa. 00:27:33 Speaker 2: So potentially Mobile would be on the list. 00:27:36 Speaker 4: However, it is not an Eastern time zone, and I am very much an Eastern time zone supremacist. The world should be run on Eastern time. And, in fact, while we're renaming things, I actually think that we should, and we're looking at daylight savings, and, of course, we've had that debate on here, we should take Greenwich Mean Time away from the British. It should be Greenwich, Connecticut. We should take all of that away from them and make it ours. The world runs on the American East Coast. That's where I want to live, and that's what we should. 00:28:06 Speaker 6: Take away from them. We have Lake America now. We have Gulf of America. 00:28:09 Speaker 3: I have a different take on Lake America. 00:28:11 Speaker 7: Yeah. 00:28:12 Speaker 3: I think that Trump should have renamed it Lake New York. He's from New York. He's from New York. 00:28:21 Speaker 6: Yeah, but that's like he hates Kathy Hochul. 00:28:24 Speaker 3: No, but we already got the Gulf. Gulf of America makes sense because it was the Gulf of Mexico. We renamed it from country name to sort of our country name. It was Lake Ontario, which was named after... The province. Actually, it wasn't. Prior to the province. The province is named after the lake. Okay, but it's named after the lake. 00:28:44 Speaker 2: But also, wasn't York the original name of Toronto? 00:28:49 Speaker 3: York, right? That's what I'm saying. 00:28:51 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. 00:28:51 Speaker 4: So if you name it New York, then maybe you could say that it's not actually an insult because they'll. 00:28:57 Speaker 2: Say it's being named after the original city. No, it's extra insulting that way. 00:28:59 Speaker 3: It's extra deliciously insulting to call it New York because it's not York. It's New York. And then it would have been. 00:29:06 Speaker 2: But even that York was still based on the York from England. 00:29:10 Speaker 3: Yeah, but all the Libs New Yorkers couldn't be upset about it. What if we named it... We know they hate America, but Libs in New York. 00:29:17 Speaker 2: What if we named it Lake Canada Sucks? 00:29:20 Speaker 3: Carrie Lake. We had that going on. We had that going on in Arizona. I tweeted out during that original, I was like, we. 00:29:28 Speaker 5: Should name, once she becomes governor, Carrie Lake. 00:29:33 Speaker 6: That's really funny. 00:29:34 Speaker 7: You know, Arizona would be the perfect state if we would have extended the southern border of the state. to actually touch the sea. 00:29:42 Speaker 5: That's what president polk wanted he got betrayed by his negotiator. 00:29:45 Speaker 4: We've talked about this so many times on thought crime this is. 00:29:48 Speaker 5: Like these plenipotentiary negotiators and this guy just he said take more of it and the guy just wussed out It will. 00:29:55 Speaker 4: Be at some point when we declare war against the cartels and we actually take that back. People will in, you know, historians will go through and be like, where did they get this idea to invade this strip of Mexico and reclaim it for Arizona? 00:30:11 Speaker 2: And they'll bring it back to this. What do you mean? Or do you take all of Cabo? 00:30:16 Speaker 6: Like all of Baja? 00:30:19 Speaker 2: I don't know. 00:30:20 Speaker 6: I mean, you might be, you. 00:30:21 Speaker 4: Might be taking on too much debt with that. There might be too much debt that comes with that. 00:30:24 Speaker 2: I don't know. But my point is, you can't do it today. Regardless of what we take, they'll, they'll still bring. 00:30:29 Speaker 4: It back to the, like there was a podcast called thought crime that was run by. 00:30:33 Speaker 6: Shut up about it. 00:30:34 Speaker 5: The thing about it was for years. The thing that stinks about it is when Polk wanted it, it was literally like empty. It was like 10,000 people in the whole area. It was as empty as California. Like we actually could have just taken it and been, then it would be filled. With Americans, we would have had... We would have a huge shipping, like, right out of the... We would just have additional states. Yeah, we'd have a bigger Arizona. We could have two Californias. That would probably be a red state. 00:31:01 Speaker 6: Did Polk want Baja, too? 00:31:03 Speaker 3: Yeah, he wants. 00:31:04 Speaker 5: So, Polk's idea, he wanted all of Baja. He wanted, like, the northern, maybe, quarter of Mexico or so. Just keep going down, like, Chihuahua, Durango. That was all empty then. And then he also wanted Yucatan. That would have been dicey. We shouldn't have taken Yucatan. 00:31:17 Speaker 6: That would have been.... 00:31:19 Speaker 3: Bad stuff. 00:31:20 Speaker 5: You'd be involved. Yeah, and there's wars going on. Anyway, people want to see my map, so I guess we have to stop hiding the Blake map. 00:31:27 Speaker 3: Throw it up. That's right. 00:31:30 Speaker 5: I can live in every state except one. I do not like California. I will never live in California. It's not better than New York. 00:31:40 Speaker 6: Yes, it is. 00:31:41 Speaker 5: It is absolutely worse than New York. 00:31:43 Speaker 3: It is unbelievable to me. I could live in Chicago. 00:31:47 Speaker 5: I could live in Illinois. 00:31:48 Speaker 3: It is unbelievable to me that you would live in California. 00:31:51 Speaker 6: I won't. 00:31:52 Speaker 3: I would not live in California. But you would live in Colorado or New Mexico or Hawaii. 00:31:56 Speaker 5: I can live in a lot of places. I get stressed out the moment I'm in California. That state bothers me. There's something profoundly wrong with it. But I can live everywhere else. 00:32:06 Speaker 3: Have you been to New Mexico? 00:32:08 Speaker 5: Yeah, I went to New Mexico over Memorial Day. 00:32:11 Speaker 3: I still think we should invest resources. 00:32:13 Speaker 6: In New Mexico. 00:32:15 Speaker 2: Mexico is actually gorgeous. It's nice to drive through. I like white sands. 00:32:18 Speaker 7: I think we should invest resources politically. You know it better than I do. I know you always disagree with me. But when I look at the vote margins. 00:32:27 Speaker 6: I'm like, jeez. 00:32:29 Speaker 4: Actually, you guys want a really spicy, a flaming hot thought crime. And this is the thought crime that's specifically endemic to this podcast. 00:32:39 Speaker 2: I would rather live in New Mexico than Arizona. 00:32:43 Speaker 6: What? Wow. 00:32:44 Speaker 3: Shame. Why? 00:32:47 Speaker 6: Shame. 00:32:47 Speaker 5: Do you have like a meth addiction? 00:32:48 Speaker 2: Because of Santa Fe. No, because of Santa Fe. 00:32:52 Speaker 6: Oh, Santa Fe. 00:32:53 Speaker 2: Santa Fe's cool. 00:32:53 Speaker 5: Yeah, Santa Fe's fine. Again, I colored every. 00:32:56 Speaker 3: State blue, so I can't. But isn't Cape May super lib? Santa Fe's so lib. 00:33:01 Speaker 6: Isn't Cape May lib? 00:33:02 Speaker 2: So is Cape May. Well, actually, Cape May's not. 00:33:03 Speaker 3: Cape May in the southern part of New Jersey is pretty conservative. No, Cape May's not. 00:33:06 Speaker 2: That's not true. That's not true at all. 00:33:08 Speaker 6: Okay. 00:33:08 Speaker 2: No, I like Santa Fe. I think Santa Fe is cool. 00:33:12 Speaker 5: The reason I actually had every state blue. 00:33:14 Speaker 2: Like every, it's also the oldest city in America. 00:33:16 Speaker 5: I am generally a tolerant guy who can, you know, I can live pretty easily in most places. 00:33:20 Speaker 3: I lived in DC. 00:33:21 Speaker 5: It was fine, even though obviously it's lib and taxing and all of that. And that's obviously going to be a problem if you live in New York or Chicago, but California has the special vulnerability to truly deranged, DSA-driven extremism in a way that I think no other state has. I think only California... New. 00:33:43 Speaker 6: Mexico has it bad, actually. 00:33:44 Speaker 5: New Mexico has some, but California. 00:33:46 Speaker 3: Remember. 00:33:46 Speaker 7: When they came after Charlie and they did it to. 00:33:50 Speaker 5: I'm not talking about ghouls who throw firebombs, even though that's a problem, but that happens in a lot of places. I'm talking California is the sort of place where you... We'll get them to just pass a law where they'll just take 40% of your money as an excise wealth tax, which they're voting on in a couple months. That is California's special breed of horrible. 00:34:10 Speaker 3: And it's way too crowded. 00:34:11 Speaker 5: It stresses one out to be in any city of California, I feel, because it's been illegal to build any new roads there since probably Elvis Presley was alive. And just, I don't know. I get the shakes every time I'm in California. 00:34:28 Speaker 3: Don't like it. Something is wrong there. 00:34:30 Speaker 2: That's how I feel about Utah. 00:34:31 Speaker 3: Yeah, but my feeling is. 00:34:32 Speaker 4: That's how I feel about Utah, and actually, that's how I felt about Utah even before what happened last year, and I've just always felt kind of weirded out there. 00:34:40 Speaker 3: My litmus test here is just, is there somewhere there that I could live and really, really like to live there? Okay. 00:34:50 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's what I'm saying about... Yeah, I would say that about San Jose, New Mexico, Cape May, New Jersey, certain parts of... certain parts of Delaware, I suppose. 00:35:00 Speaker 4: But like the Florida, that's what I put as my solid blue is like, would I actively look at buying property there? 00:35:06 Speaker 6: Yes. 00:35:07 Speaker 5: That's the other thing with California for me, that most of these States, even the blue ones have their like very red areas there. California has actually been so overrun that the places you think of as the Republican parts of California, other than really tiny counties in the North, those like don't exist anymore. Like, Orange County is now a bunch of Democrat stuff. Central Valley is heavily illegal immigrants. 00:35:34 Speaker 6: Did you guys ever see the movie with Robert Downey Jr. called Kiss Kiss Bang Bang? No. No, he's got this great. 00:35:40 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. It's like a Christmas movie kind of thing. 00:35:42 Speaker 7: He's got this great line in it. He said, it's like somebody took the country and shook it from the East Coast, and everybody sane managed to hold on. And everybody else fell into California. And there is a truth to that. It is a special. 00:35:57 Speaker 3: That's a great movie, by the way. 00:35:58 Speaker 5: We have multiple requests from the audience. They say they want us to speculate what would Charlie's map have looked like if he did this. 00:36:05 Speaker 3: And I'm really wondering about that. Obviously, Arizona blue. 00:36:07 Speaker 6: He loved Montana. 00:36:09 Speaker 3: He talked about how he'd have to flee. 00:36:11 Speaker 5: To Florida if the libs here got too aggro on Turning Point. So we know Florida's blue. He visited Maine a lot. 00:36:21 Speaker 6: He visited Montana a lot. 00:36:22 Speaker 5: He visited Montana. He liked Boise, I feel. I remember him liking when we went to that Christian school there. 00:36:30 Speaker 6: He always talked about Alaska. 00:36:32 Speaker 3: He talked about Alaska. That's true. 00:36:36 Speaker 7: He used to complain about the politics in California. 00:36:41 Speaker 5: Would he go back ever to Illinois? Could he tolerate Illinois at all? Or was that permanent exile? 00:36:46 Speaker 7: No. 00:36:48 Speaker 6: He loved it there, but I don't think he would have ever lived there again. 00:36:52 Speaker 3: You know what's funny about that? In the very early days, when I first met Charlie, he was so hardcore about Illinois. He was like, this is the greatest state. You can't convince me otherwise. It's the greatest state. You can't convince me otherwise. 00:37:05 Speaker 6: The best people. He loved the people. 00:37:07 Speaker 3: One time, we had taken our entire staff after training to a Cubs game. It was my idea. It was the first time that we'd ever funded a team builder because Turning Point didn't have enough money. before that to do like team building. So we'd bought cheap seats and kind of nosebleeds at, at, at Wrigley, which is still pretty expensive, but he was like, Oh yeah, Cubs kids are the best. He was a huge Cubs fan. 00:37:27 Speaker 7: Right. 00:37:27 Speaker 3: And so he and I drove in his car, like he drove me and we went all the way into the city. And so he started from his house to drive all the way into the city. And it took like legitimately like two and a half hours. I'm like, while we were going. And then we got near the stadium, there was nowhere to park. And like, I was like, like throughout, I was just like slowly working on like, man, this is not really great. This is, like, a really bad, like, situation. He's like, no, no, no, it's fine. It's fine. It's fine. And then when he moved out here, he had the convenience factor. 00:37:57 Speaker 6: He loved Phoenix. 00:37:58 Speaker 3: Because it was really COVID that got him permanently out here. It was a little bit before COVID, but. I'm trying to think of. After starting to eat Erica and that, but, like, then he was, like, here, and then he was, like, oh, yeah, this is so much. This is so much of the convenience factor because he lived his life that was, like. 00:38:11 Speaker 7: Well, he also loved the sun and the topography. He liked seeing mountains. 00:38:15 Speaker 3: But just, like, the convenience of, like. 00:38:17 Speaker 4: You keep saying convenience factor, but like one of the main reasons that I didn't move to Phoenix was because I thought it was so inconvenient. 00:38:25 Speaker 2: So what do you mean convenience? 00:38:27 Speaker 3: Phoenix, no matter where you live, you are within a year with them, literally point three miles of everything that you need to to be. And it's not like. The East Coast has a terrible thing. Like, New Jersey and a lot of places in Pennsylvania. Yeah, see, I hate... No, when he says. 3 miles, he means three miles. 00:38:41 Speaker 5: To me, that feels like I'm in a prison. 00:38:43 Speaker 3: But you can drive there at 60 miles. 00:38:44 Speaker 2: I hate that. 00:38:45 Speaker 3: I'm telling you. 00:38:46 Speaker 2: I actually hate that. 00:38:47 Speaker 3: The convenience of everything is so good, but in the East Coast, it's like... And, like, Dallas is this way, too. It's like, jug handles and exiting takes, like, five to eight minutes. Like, the thing that drives me crazy is, like, you have to exit. It takes forever to exit to get off the freeway. Us, it's like, you get off the freeway, and, like, within, like, two seconds, you're at. 00:39:07 Speaker 3: New Jersey. 00:39:08 Speaker 2: Well, unfortunately, it's New Jersey. That's just a Jersey thing, the Jug Handles, by the way. 00:39:13 Speaker 6: We should talk about Texas more. 00:39:14 Speaker 3: But Texas has something similar to that. 00:39:16 Speaker 7: People are probably surprised that none of us are like, yeah, I know what you mean. 00:39:20 Speaker 3: It's like the big freeways. The thing that drives me nuts about Dallas is like you can see your destination almost everywhere you go like like you could see it and it still takes you like 15 that. 00:39:32 Speaker 7: Reminds me of like walking on foot in vegas where you're like oh the cosmos just there i see it right there and you walk and it's like an hour later you're like how how did this take so long to get so such a short distance uh but yeah texas is really hot for example Everybody wanted to move to Austin at one point, right? But Austin is, in my opinion, hotter than Phoenix in the summer because it's also humid. 00:39:57 Speaker 3: It's sweaty. It's more humid than D.C. 00:40:00 Speaker 5: Actually on average. 00:40:01 Speaker 6: Is it really? 00:40:02 Speaker 5: Interesting. 00:40:03 Speaker 4: We love the people in Texas, at least the old school people. 00:40:05 Speaker 2: You mentioned my Florida thing. Florida is a lot. 00:40:11 Speaker 4: In fact, a lot of people who move to Florida move out after a year or two. 00:40:15 Speaker 2: My brother just moved out of Florida. And it's because it's just sort. 00:40:19 Speaker 4: Of a lot to deal with, to take in. It's very different from the rest of the country. It's very much its own thing. Now, some people love it. I like it in small doses, but no, I couldn't live there. 00:40:34 Speaker 5: I can't stand Florida when we're there. Even in December, when we're there for the gala, it's way worse in Florida in December than it is here in July, weather-wise. What I do like about Florida is, Because Florida's weather and humidity is unfathomably terrible. 00:40:50 Speaker 6: What? No, December's terrible. December in Florida is great. 00:40:53 Speaker 3: No, it's still a humid place. 00:40:54 Speaker 2: December in Florida is nice. What are you talking about? 00:40:56 Speaker 5: No, Florida's awful. Florida weather is always awful. 00:40:58 Speaker 2: In what way? 00:40:59 Speaker 3: Florida weather is always awful. 00:41:00 Speaker 6: It's too mild and sunny? 00:41:03 Speaker 5: What Florida has is, because their weather is so uniformly terrible, all they have is having good government. So Florida is just by far the best-governed state on a day-to-day level. 00:41:14 Speaker 6: Let's see Foz's map. Seven. Producer Foz. Guess they're not going to throw it up. Oh, fascinating. Upper Midwest hater. 00:41:26 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's a big Midwest hater. 00:41:28 Speaker 6: West Coast hater. 00:41:28 Speaker 5: He just absolutely despises the old Rust Belt. 00:41:33 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's an interesting map, Foz. Interesting. Florida. 00:41:37 Speaker 7: Alabama. He's with me on Alabama. I think we're the only two. But he's the only one to put Texas. 00:41:42 Speaker 3: Wait, no to New Hampshire, but yes to Maine? I don't understand that one. 00:41:47 Speaker 6: Well, he's a New York boy. 00:41:47 Speaker 5: I mean, they're both habsy ones. I'm kind of surprised. 00:41:50 Speaker 2: That's just not spending enough time in New Hampshire. That's all that is. 00:41:54 Speaker 3: It's the same thing. 00:41:56 Speaker 2: It's the same thing. 00:41:56 Speaker 3: It's the same state, but it's. 00:41:58 Speaker 2: Yeah, actually, and New Hampshire, politically speaking, is much better. Yeah. So, I mean, like, why would you. 00:42:04 Speaker 4: If you're looking at New England, why wouldn't you look at New Hampshire? 00:42:08 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the only thing. Everything else I totally understand here, logically, except for the New Hampshire hatred. 00:42:18 Speaker 7: I don't understand Wyoming yellow, though. If you like Idaho, Montana. I mean, Wyoming's a little bit more backwards in a good way, in my opinion. 00:42:25 Speaker 6: It's way more open. 00:42:27 Speaker 3: It's beautiful. You and Foz here have, I should have probably went, With Alabama because Gulf Shores and all that is basically the same as where I would want to live in Florida. 00:42:39 Speaker 6: Yeah. 00:42:39 Speaker 3: It's good. It's good. 00:42:40 Speaker 2: All right. By the way, New Hampshire has Lake Winnipesaukee, which is just absolutely gorgeous. 00:42:47 Speaker 3: I will note. Lake Winnipesaukee is unbelievable. It's about an hour away from Boston. So you can fly into Boston and be there within an hour. It has a massive ski resort at the base of it. And it's one of the most beautiful lakes in America. 00:43:02 Speaker 5: Look, guys, I don't want to be that guy, but I will just note that their current argument appears to be, in this state, they have this thing called a lake. The lake is a body of water that you can engage in recreation on. I will note, guys, many states have lakes, and many of them are pretty. 00:43:18 Speaker 3: Yeah, many of them are ugly. Not true. 00:43:19 Speaker 2: Not true. 00:43:21 Speaker 4: Because did you know that my son and I my kids, we do all these state trivia games, and I didn't even know this, but apparently the state of Maryland does not have any natural lakes. 00:43:33 Speaker 5: Actually, quite a few are like that. I think Texas has zero natural lakes. 00:43:37 Speaker 3: Yeah, but they have reservoirs. 00:43:39 Speaker 4: It's like Saudi Arabia not having any rivers, which of course makes sense, because it's Saudi Arabia. 00:43:43 Speaker 5: More of the country than you'd think has just no natural lakes. They create artificial ones using dams. 00:43:49 Speaker 6: Yeah, I guess that makes sense. Like Lake Travis and. 00:43:56 Speaker 5: Yeah, but in comparison, I don't know. As an upper Midwesterner, lakes are not interesting because the glaciers came through and made 10 trillion of them. And so one lake is much like another. 00:44:08 Speaker 6: All right. Let's get to the next topic. That was fun, though. 00:44:10 Speaker 3: All right. 00:44:11 Speaker 6: Yes, it was. 00:44:11 Speaker 5: All right. I think we should do I think we should do the fake NFL player for next because. 00:44:16 Speaker 3: Dude, yes, this story is hilarious. 00:44:19 Speaker 5: I think it speaks a lot to certain dating dynamics. 00:44:23 Speaker 6: So. 00:44:23 Speaker 5: So, Jack, do you know do you know the full background of the story? 00:44:28 Speaker 4: I just know, like the basics, because I basically my buddy still boneless friend of the show. We were out this past weekend. We actually went to the– our families got together. We went to the Renaissance Fair. And he just randomly started telling me about it. He's like, have you seen this fake NFL player? I'm like, what do you mean fake NFL player? I thought like– I initially thought that he meant like that it was someone who was like running on the field or something like that. But apparently it's this guy who's a social media influencer who's pretending– Dejan Love, who is pretending to be an NFL player, and he's, like, and scamming followers and women, like, all sorts of things to thinking that he's an actual NFL player. And apparently one of the, like, convincers on this is that actual NFL players have, like, interacted with his posts. 00:45:27 Speaker 3: Well, they should show. Do we have the clip? 00:45:29 Speaker 5: I don't know which one of these is the clip, but the fact that he is. 00:45:33 Speaker 6: Clip eight. We'll just try that one. 00:45:34 Speaker 7: My boy J-Love signing this contract. 00:45:38 Speaker 2: How you feel? I'm ready. 00:45:41 Speaker 3: You ready for the season? 00:45:42 Speaker 6: Let me go up in here and get this over with. 00:45:45 Speaker 7: Sign that bad boy. 00:45:47 Speaker 3: Who's your decision? 00:45:48 Speaker 5: Niners. 00:45:49 Speaker 2: You already know the Niner gang. 00:45:51 Speaker 7: Yes, sir. 00:45:52 Speaker 6: Iced up. 00:45:53 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? We good to go. Let's get ready to start the season. Anything you got to say for the fans? Look out number seven. Last name Love. Six, five, two, ten. 00:46:02 Speaker 3: I'm out, dude. 00:46:03 Speaker 1: Well, I receive it. 00:46:04 Speaker 3: So this proves that between this and the Lindsay Clancy trial, this proves that women do not use Google. No, they don't. And so I think we have B-roll number nine. 00:46:16 Speaker 5: This is apparently the video that he would send them to convince them. Is this the beach? I want to find the beach clip if we don't. it's somewhere in there. There's a clip where he would hit the way he would pose is he would send video. 00:46:28 Speaker 7: Yeah. 00:46:28 Speaker 5: He's at the beach just wearing this Niners helmet doing football stuff. Like that's obviously what an NFL player would do. Just wear their helmet out and about. 00:46:38 Speaker 6: With the football, with the football in his arm. 00:46:41 Speaker 5: It's like, you just imagine they think an NFL player is a guy who just goes around like wearing his NFL game day uniform. Like he's a, Like he's a cartoon character in a Nickelodeon show or something. And yeah, that's me. NFL player, NFL player guy. 00:46:58 Speaker 3: It's like he just updated his LinkedIn to say he plays for the 49ers. 00:47:04 Speaker 6: Another man. Wait, there was another dude that faked it. Clip 12. 00:47:18 Speaker 3: I mean. 00:47:19 Speaker 5: I can't even tell what's going on. 00:47:23 Speaker 6: What's up? All right. 00:47:46 Speaker 3: So my question, I have a question here, though. So are these guys telling the women that they're in the NFL or they're trying to be in the NFL? 00:47:53 Speaker 5: No, they're telling women they're in the NFL. And it's an elaborate catfish. 00:47:57 Speaker 3: Because any man can try to be in the NFL. So what they would do is. Technically, it's not a lie. 00:48:00 Speaker 5: They would string women along, tell them they're in the NFL. They would create these fictitious personas about it. So, for example, this Dajon Love. He also went by John Love. uh, Avril Lito love and Jordan love, which is a Packers, that's a Packers player. Uh, and I guess one, he would meet multiple women, string them along. And you think if they're dumb enough to believe you're an NFL player, they'll also believe all your excuses. Oh, I I'm not around. Cause I've got to go to the game. I've got to go to practice. They think you're a really busy guy. And then you can use that to string along multiple women and, And then I think what they'd say is he'd need money for some emergency. Oh, hey babe, the game check hasn't arrived yet. Just a temporary thing. Can you send me cash? And they say they defrauded more than two dozen women Out of $ 1. 3 million, which is actually an NFL player amount of money. 00:48:54 Speaker 3: So I have an actually kind of funny story about this that actually happened to one of our staffers. I'm not going to expose which of our staffers. 00:49:03 Speaker 2: Tyler's like, I'm a former catfisher. 00:49:05 Speaker 3: No, so there was a girl on our staff who was single at the time. And this was during COVID. And she thought she was getting catfished by a guy who said that he was a... he got, he was a draft pick. He was a high draft pick for one of the football franchises. I won't say who it was, but it was a guy that was posing as this person. And it was pretty legit. Like he would send over videos and like, he may have been even close friends with this actual guy. that was catfishing, but she finally exposed that, like figured out that like this guy wasn't real, but she had, the guy had him, her going for a long time. Would he, and was he just doing this for fun? Was he trying to get, probably trying to get money or like, I don't know. Or like, I don't know, you know, just to get her to talk to her, to talk to him or whatever. Or like maybe even meet up in person. Like they look good enough alike. I don't know. Like could have been somebody, but like it was super sketchy and really, really scary. Cause it was, This guy that she thought it was this guy. He had a lot of followers on Instagram because he had built up this like following is like a it wasn't like today where they have blue checks and everything. This was five, six years ago where there wasn't blue checks. And she legitimately thought that he was who he said he was because she had been hit up by a lot of different pro athletes and things like that. 00:50:25 Speaker 6: Like, oh, she was a looker. Yeah. 00:50:27 Speaker 3: So she had she had. But this guy was not him. And it was very scary. 00:50:35 Speaker 7: Midterm elections are coming up and control of Congress is on the line. If there's one thing financial markets hate, it's uncertainty. And uncertainty is exactly what the next few months are going to bring. In 2024, if it taught us anything, it's that uncertainty breeds volatility. Between now and November could be one of the most volatile stretches for the stock market and the economy. So you owe it to yourself to have a plan. Here's the good part. There's a simple way to protect what you've built, and that's gold. physical gold, and silver, let you hedge against that volatility.

The B-roll. 00:52:03 Speaker 7: Polymarket headline says, just in, another fake NFL player has been exposed. 00:52:10 Speaker 3: I think it's just Polymarket. 00:52:11 Speaker 2: This isn't like just now, right? 00:52:13 Speaker 3: Posting breaking info. 00:52:15 Speaker 7: Despite never playing in the league, appeared at charity events in NFL gear. 00:52:19 Speaker 5: So wait, apparently anyone can just pretend to be an NFL player is what I'm getting at. 00:52:25 Speaker 3: It reminds me of the opposite with what's-his-face that looks like Cliff, the comedian. 00:52:31 Speaker 2: Oh, Shane Gillis. 00:52:32 Speaker 3: Shane Gillis. Yeah, I got it. 00:52:33 Speaker 6: It looks like Cliff Malone. 00:52:35 Speaker 3: I remember when he was hosting ESPN, and he's like, shout out to so-and-so, WNBA all-star. And she's like smiling, laughing. 00:52:46 Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. 00:52:46 Speaker 3: I'm just kidding. I knew you wouldn't know. 00:52:48 Speaker 8: This is the opposite for women. 00:52:51 Speaker 3: Women don't even know. Can't even use Google. Don't even know who the basic players are. 00:52:56 Speaker 2: Let me ask you guys this, though. 00:52:58 Speaker 4: Here's an interesting moral question for us. If you are lying about who you are, but you are raising money for charity and you're signing things and the money goes to charities, right? Is that actually immoral if the money all goes to a good purpose? 00:53:15 Speaker 3: Yes, because there's still a value on whatever you're signing and you're making people pay for something that's fake. 00:53:21 Speaker 6: Yeah, it kind of reminds me of Dave Chappelle's stand-up. 00:53:24 Speaker 4: But the money's going to, you'd be helping Jerry's kids or something. 00:53:29 Speaker 3: Yeah, but on the front end of the agreement, the moral question of when money goes for gambling to charities, for example, a lot of people, on the front end, there's still an understanding of how that money was agreeably made or raised. This is just on the front end, a straight-up lie. It's a lie. Yeah, there was no asterisk on thou. 00:53:55 Speaker 2: Shalt not lie. Tyler never lets us have any fun. 00:53:57 Speaker 6: What'd you say, Caboose? 00:53:59 Speaker 1: He said there was no asterisk on thou shalt not lie. 00:54:02 Speaker 6: Yeah, no asterisk on thou shalt not lie. 00:54:06 Speaker 3: You shouldn't lie about it. But, like, yeah, I mean, if everybody was like, oh, yeah, I know you're a fake. 00:54:10 Speaker 2: I know you're a fake. 00:54:13 Speaker 3: I knowingly am paying for a fake NFL player that's going for charity. 00:54:16 Speaker 5: I'm now just picturing, like, a Jesus parable where the fake NFL player comes to Jesus and, like, offers to support his ministry with the money he got from catfishing the women of Galilee. And Jesus has a wise parable about this. 00:54:28 Speaker 3: I'm sure there were fake Jesuses. 00:54:29 Speaker 2: This is Life of Brian. 00:54:30 Speaker 6: Yeah. 00:54:32 Speaker 3: A lot of them, actually. 00:54:33 Speaker 4: No, Blake, you guys have seen The Life of Brian, right? 00:54:36 Speaker 3: I have not, actually. 00:54:38 Speaker 6: You know what it is. 00:54:39 Speaker 3: I know what it is. 00:54:41 Speaker 4: Yeah, so Life of Brian is, it's kind of like catfishing in a sense, except that it's innocent in the sense that it's non-deliberate catfishing. Basically, this guy Brian gets born down the road from Jesus, but all of the signs line up, and then he spends the rest of his life kind of getting mistaken for Jesus. 00:55:03 Speaker 2: All along the way. 00:55:04 Speaker 4: And it's a very funny, famous, you know, Monty Python movie. It's where Always Look on the Bright Side of Life is from. It's from that one as he's being crucified. And there's a, you know, there's just a lot of, you know, really, really funny, highly quotable scenes from it. And, you know, obviously the difference being in that case is that he did not do it deliberately, but people start following him thinking he's the Messiah because, well, You know, they just, they were really looking for that Messiah. 00:55:34 Speaker 3: Makes the checks out. 00:55:36 Speaker 7: Wait, this is kind of related. We do have male NFL cheerleaders. 00:55:39 Speaker 5: We do, but I feel like there's got to be something. 00:55:42 Speaker 2: Blake really wanted to talk about this story for some reason. 00:55:44 Speaker 5: So these guys are faking being NFL players, but what does this mean about women? Is it just that they, like. Could a woman get away with this level of thing? I don't feel like they could. I don't think a white guy could get away with this. 00:55:59 Speaker 3: Probably not. 00:56:00 Speaker 5: Well, maybe they could claim to be a quarterback or something. 00:56:02 Speaker 2: Yeah, they could. No, and not with NFL. 00:56:07 Speaker 4: But it would be like, this is how girls on OnlyFans and cam girls and stuff, this is how all this operates. There's so much catfishing of guys that goes on. Probably, I would go so far as to say there is more catfishing of guys that goes on pound for pound in the world than of women. 00:56:24 Speaker 5: There's a lot of catfishing of guys, but the catfishing of guys, the fraud is just them pretending to like you, whereas to get money. 00:56:31 Speaker 3: Or pretending to be women in the first place. 00:56:32 Speaker 5: I don't know that this career catfishing can happen to men. 00:56:35 Speaker 3: No, time out. Could it? Dude, I have seen so many people, even that I like, post so many pictures of on their stuff that's like straight up catfishing like straight up like we've i've known so. 00:56:51 Speaker 5: No i'm not denying that men get catfished but i don't think men would get catfished by a woman who's inventing a career that they fall for i just think they get they just get catfished by a woman who like doesn't literally just. 00:57:02 Speaker 7: Like doesn't exist they just get catfished by they get catfished by a dude by the oldest. 00:57:06 Speaker 3: No no no i'm saying they cat women catfish frequently with like edited pictures of themselves and things like that. Women are far more likely to over-edit pictures and not be the real person. I think a lot of women have dating struggles because they over-edit and they over-sensationalize their lifestyle on social media. That's part of the reason why. It turns people off when they meet them in person. Men have a tough time dating someone that is over-sensationalizing themselves to begin with. When they actually do meet them. And then it's like, like if, if I met a woman who had over sensationalized her life, her looks, everything. And then I was like, man, you have to be like next level crazy to make yourself look like that. And you're actually a far greater, like a normal person, like, or like a bigger loser. 00:57:56 Speaker 6: Right. 00:57:56 Speaker 3: Like you've just like set all these high expectations and then delivered mediocre. Like that's the whole world. That's the whole shebang right now. 00:58:05 Speaker 2: I got to throw out a big warning, a big warning on this. 00:58:08 Speaker 4: You know, one of the red flags, obviously, if you're going out, as we said a couple of weeks ago, if you're going out there, if you're in the dating game right now, young Kings, number one, ask them their. 00:58:17 Speaker 2: Opinion on Lindsay Clancy. 00:58:19 Speaker 6: Boom. 00:58:19 Speaker 4: It's faster than a cup of coffee. You'll know right away the answer. Number two, beware the high angle photo. Beware that, you know, you guys know what I'm talking about. It's when you get You get your phone, and they do this high-angle photo, and for whatever reason, it's able to hide what the rest of them look like, and it allows for the shape-shifting to take place. 00:58:43 Speaker 3: It's the high-angle photo. It is not real life. 00:58:45 Speaker 4: It is not real life, and it needs to be avoided. If you see the high-angle photo, just run. 00:58:50 Speaker 3: Just run. It should be made illegal. You shouldn't be able to put a high-angle photo on the internet, period. We should just ban it. 00:58:57 Speaker 7: 100%. 00:58:57 Speaker 3: I would ban it. 00:58:58 Speaker 6: I mean, filters are bad. 00:58:59 Speaker 4: I'd be for banning it in 50 out of 50 states, including the ones I would live. 00:59:03 Speaker 7: Filters do all that work for you. You don't even need to take a high-angle photo. And then there's, like, the touch-up apps and stuff. It's all fake, guys. It's all fake. 00:59:14 Speaker 6: If you let people fake, they will fake. 00:59:17 Speaker 3: There is a girl that I knew that she edited her pictures so bad every time that it was, like, people, guys would meet her in real life, and it would be... It was so... awful like she just could never like land a second. 00:59:32 Speaker 7: Date false false uh marketing false advertising is a bad thing this. 00:59:36 Speaker 3: Is obviously your problem like it's so obviously your problem. 00:59:40 Speaker 7: Yeah you just like guys you know it's the bait and switch it's the rug pull. 00:59:43 Speaker 3: But i feel bad for because it's like the world has created this environment with women that's like they have to they feel like they have to do that. 00:59:51 Speaker 7: What if what if a hypothetical scenario here you're dating somebody and she's gorgeous she's beautiful and you're like oh I want my kids to look like her. And then you find out she had so much face work. Her face basically looked completely different. 01:00:07 Speaker 6: Is that immoral? Perfectly okay with that. You're perfectly okay with that? 01:00:09 Speaker 3: Perfectly okay with that. 01:00:11 Speaker 6: I think that's kind of weird, though. 01:00:14 Speaker 2: What? 01:00:14 Speaker 3: You want to know what you're getting into. So I'm not dating you four years ago. 01:00:20 Speaker 6: Yeah, but your kids are going to... Say she had like a... I don't know. 01:00:23 Speaker 3: I mean, I think you should consider it. I think you should. What are you going for there? 01:00:27 Speaker 2: Are you going with cleft lip? 01:00:29 Speaker 5: Is that what you're going for? 01:00:30 Speaker 7: I was thinking like a big nose. Rhinoplasty is a very common surgery. 01:00:35 Speaker 6: What's that? Huh? 01:00:37 Speaker 2: I didn't say anything. 01:00:38 Speaker 3: You're in trouble? 01:00:40 Speaker 6: All right. Blake hasn't got. This is from Sandra. 01:00:44 Speaker 2: I love all people. I love all people. 01:00:45 Speaker 6: Sandra Gebhardt. Did I say that right? 01:00:49 Speaker 3: Okay. 01:00:50 Speaker 5: Sandra Gebhardt. Maybe that's what it is. Blake hasn't got to talk about the WNBA this week, so we have to ask if you think a woman could announce her fake draft into the WNBA, or is this just a guy hustle? 01:01:03 Speaker 3: Well, I would say... No guy was interested in a woman. 01:01:06 Speaker 5: Is a guy interested in a woman who's in the WNBA? I feel like that's kind of a... Only Sophie Cunningham. If nothing else, you'd hear a woman's in the WNBA, and you'd probably think, she might be taller than me. 01:01:17 Speaker 2: Manish. 01:01:18 Speaker 3: She might be manish. 01:01:19 Speaker 6: But then there's Sophie Cunningham. 01:01:21 Speaker 3: I mean, it's a lesbian thing. 01:01:24 Speaker 5: I just don't think any of the things men find really appealing in women are increased in likelihood by them being in the WNBA. If she's a star, she probably makes more money than you and a lot of guys aren't going to like that. 01:01:36 Speaker 3: The greater equivalent to an NBA star is some kind of person that runs their own social media business and they make a ton of money. There's a lot of women who have started businesses that are attractive that made all their money off social media. Like, I know a couple of people. Nope. But that would probably be the NBA or NFL or MLB. Red flag. Big red flag. But I know men. I know lots of men who that's what they do. They're basically like some women are pro-athlete chasers. I know some men who are like social media crazy. clout type chasers because they make money in their stay-at-home dads and again i'm not i don't even want to get into like you know because i don't want to get like hit up by a friend or somebody that i know that like this is their lifestyle home dad but like there are some stay-at-home dads that come from this and it's like like their wife brings in all the money from social media and they're kind of like a pro athlete a little bit. 01:02:38 Speaker 8: Yeah no i mean it well that depends that depends on what the social media is though so so are you talking about If the content– like, for example, I know someone who does this, but it's, like, fashion and. 01:02:54 Speaker 2: Specifically shoes, for example. Yes. 01:02:58 Speaker 4: So, like, it's not, like, taking pictures of themselves. It's them– like, his wife, you know, she does, like, a shoe Instagram page. And it's– yeah, it's like a lifestyle, but she's not even, like– She talks about the shoes here and there, but it's much more. 01:03:16 Speaker 2: About the focuses on the shoes. That's not the same thing as these ones. 01:03:21 Speaker 4: Where it's all about themselves and all about engrossing and constantly posting thirst traps. All I'm saying is, guys, if she's posting thirst traps, you got to stay away. You just completely got to stay away. 01:03:34 Speaker 3: I mean, and that's half the internet now. Half the internet is like... There's just like women. 01:03:39 Speaker 2: All I post are thirst traps of myself, but I can't help it. 01:03:41 Speaker 3: Women, but there's a significant, unfortunately the monetization of the platforms has created like a, a soft, uh, landing place here for now where like that stuff, I actually think it was better when that the pre monetization, because now there's just like, I mean, we did the numbers on the show. There is a dramatic amount of percentage of American women below the age of 40 who are on only fans, like a, like a, Like, it's, like, a really high-end number. It's, like, I can't remember. 01:04:12 Speaker 6: I can't imagine many of them are doing, like, making that much. 01:04:15 Speaker 3: But they're not. But they don't need to make that much. It's, like, if they have a job and they're supplementing their income with $ 1, 000 a month. 01:04:21 Speaker 6: Internet lives forever, man. 01:04:22 Speaker 7: Can you imagine, like, your kids finding out that, like, 20 years down the line and being like, woof. 01:04:27 Speaker 3: And a lot of women are okay with that. 01:04:28 Speaker 5: Kids can find out a lot of things these days. 01:04:30 Speaker 3: A lot of women are okay with that, unfortunately. And, like, they're okay with it now, but they may not be okay with it later. 01:04:35 Speaker 6: It's, like, getting normalized more and more. 01:04:37 Speaker 2: Totally. 01:04:39 Speaker 3: But again, like I've, again, I've known people and I'm not trying to, you know, do the holier than thou thing with that stuff. It's just like, it's just a real thing. 01:04:48 Speaker 6: Only fans is like, there's not even a close call here. It's, it's, it's digital prostitution. It's awful. 01:04:56 Speaker 7: And the fact that so many women are getting drawn into it is a damn indictment on the whole culture. 01:05:01 Speaker 3: I think it's, I can, I mean, it's, it's more about like, again, the broken family, broken relationships, uh, People needing to make money, unfortunately, that's where... We always see a spike when the economy's bad and the family's bad, right? Or when you have economic problems. 01:05:19 Speaker 6: It's the oldest occupation, as they say. 01:05:23 Speaker 7: Producer Foz says, only fans is the tramp stamp tattoo you can't get rid of. 01:05:27 Speaker 6: Amen, bro. 01:05:28 Speaker 3: It's your digital tramp stamp. Yeah, it's a digital tramp stamp. I mean, look, the problem is there's a lot of... pseudo versions of that that exist that once you get into it, it's like it lives forever online. And so a lot of women justify their identity around that forever. And look, and we've seen a lot of women come out of that, but they still have to embrace it for the rest of their life. 01:05:51 Speaker 7: I wonder what like the actual percentage of women that are 29 and younger that were, that are like cam girls on some way, in some way, shape or form. 01:06:02 Speaker 5: What's really creepy, by the way, is there's a lot of them out there where they do it for a few years, and then you say the internet's forever, but it's actually not. There are ones who they don't reveal their identity, and then they purge it, and they just lie about it and pretend it never happened. There are 110% women who are just ex-OnlyFans models, and they don't talk about it, and that's just a ticking time bomb in the background of any relationship they're in. 01:06:27 Speaker 3: Jeez. 01:06:29 Speaker 7: I really do feel bad for a lot of these young guys because it could totally. 01:06:33 Speaker 6: Happen with some of our students. Good Christians, work hard, conservatives, and they date some beautiful girl. They fall in love and. 01:06:39 Speaker 3: They realize, oh, she was. 01:06:41 Speaker 5: I'm sure this has happened multiple times. What literally happens is someone hacks that information because that stuff comes out and they just send it to whoever their current boyfriend is. Not even for financial gains. People just do it because they find it entertaining. 01:06:54 Speaker 3: They like to troll. 01:06:54 Speaker 2: People with that. 01:06:57 Speaker 4: I created something a couple years ago called the Thought Audit. And the Thought Audit was when we found out that the IRS will pay you a bounty if you can report unclaimed income to the IRS. And so what we were having guys do was they were going in on OnlyFans pages and like all of– I heard– I have no idea if this is true because I don't know who they are. 01:07:23 Speaker 2: But there was this place called 4chan. 01:07:24 Speaker 1: Com. 01:07:25 Speaker 4: And they were joining up for these OnlyFans, and they were getting into the messages with whoever the– what do you call them? 01:07:33 Speaker 2: The member, the OnlyFans girl. 01:07:35 Speaker 6: The model. 01:07:35 Speaker 4: And asking them if they ever had to pay taxes. And when they said no, they were screenshotting it and reporting them to the IRS. 01:07:42 Speaker 2: Right. 01:07:44 Speaker 6: Check this out. So a frequently cited figure. 01:07:46 Speaker 7: Of approximately 1.4 million American women on OnlyFans. 01:07:51 Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. It's a huge number. 01:07:53 Speaker 6: 1.4 million. 01:07:53 Speaker 7: But it comes from a revenue share back of the envelope calculation, not platform data. It covers all ages, so not just young women. And it includes non-adult content. 01:08:04 Speaker 6: What the hell does that mean? 01:08:06 Speaker 7: Fact checks treat the leap to 10% of 18 to 24-year-olds as inflated. A more consistent reading of the same source is approximately 2% of women aged 18 to 45. 01:08:18 Speaker 6: 2%. Which means it's way higher for younger women. 01:08:22 Speaker 3: There's only 40 million women between the ages of 18 and 35. So they actually have that population. 01:08:28 Speaker 6: There's 15.3 million women aged 18 to 24. There's a white bill. 01:08:29 Speaker 3: 26 million. 01:08:29 Speaker 6: That's what I'm saying. So it's literally like 10%. 01:08:40 Speaker 3: Of women on OnlyFans. 01:08:43 Speaker 2: That number is going to drop like a stone. 01:08:45 Speaker 4: That number is going to drop like a stone once AI takes off because you're going to have these H-1Bs in New Delhi or wherever it is are going to be running bot farms, basically, and running bot farms. 01:09:00 Speaker 2: All like fake. 01:09:01 Speaker 3: AI women who are able to do this. It's already happening. 01:09:04 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I'm sure it's already starting. 01:09:05 Speaker 4: Um, and it's going to be running 24 seven and they're going to be interactive and they're going to be able to really just set them up on their own. You won't even have to have them make, you know, you know, typing out like phrases or anything. 01:09:19 Speaker 3: So Jack, the thought crime is, is, is that good for America? 01:09:22 Speaker 2: No, no, it's not. It's not good. 01:09:25 Speaker 3: So you would rather American women be on only fans than, uh. 01:09:29 Speaker 2: AI, uh, No, I'd rather all of it be gone. What do you mean? 01:09:34 Speaker 3: Okay, but if you had to choose between one or the other, which one's worse? 01:09:39 Speaker 2: Which one is worse? The one where American Girls are on OnlyFans. 01:09:45 Speaker 3: Okay, so it's an improvement for AI is what you're saying? 01:09:49 Speaker 4: Well, I guess there's your pro-data center argument, I guess. 01:09:53 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think it's pretty... This is going to be the headline on. 01:09:58 Speaker 7: Jack Posobiec makes the most compelling argument for. 01:10:00 Speaker 3: Data centers yet. Jack Posobiec makes compelling arguments. 01:10:03 Speaker 7: Admin officials rush him into the Oval Office to tell Trump how to pitch data centers. 01:10:09 Speaker 3: Jack Posobiec said AI hoes are okay. That's why we need data centers. 01:10:16 Speaker 2: J.D. got asked that question earlier today. He had a good answer. I thought he had a pretty good answer. What did he say? He said you have to reduce. 01:10:23 Speaker 4: Energy because he did the press conference today, and he said you have to reduce energy cost in the community. You have to be associated with reducing energy cost, and you actually have to provide something of value to the place where the data center is being put into, whatever that community is that's being affected. And if you're not doing that, then these things just aren't going to fly. 01:10:41 Speaker 6: So he took the Vivek approach. 01:10:44 Speaker 5: I will say, imagine if we applied that set of expectations to, like, literally any of the horrible pieces of crap that we build in our towns all of the time. Like, actually, before you build this homeless shelter, you have to prove that it will lower energy costs and, like, provide value to the community. 01:10:59 Speaker 6: Yeah. I'm just wondering if, like, data centers. 01:11:02 Speaker 2: Or, like, the meth clinics or, like. 01:11:05 Speaker 5: Or like every vape shop and every payday lender. By the way, this is a question I actually have on the tech. Does it matter where a data center is built? Because if I'm a data center and I'm location agnostic and Americans are like, you got to build a power plant and. 01:11:20 Speaker 6: All this stuff, I'm just going to like Dubai. you know what i mean they want. 01:11:23 Speaker 4: They like um as far as i know it needs to be closer to either a power plant uh or a um or like a like a strong electric grid because yes okay but because of the of the loss of the loss that you know over yeah but they're saying. 01:11:37 Speaker 7: They're talking about shooting data centers into space like this is like a real thing that probably is going to happen there's a bit of a latency issue well some. 01:11:44 Speaker 5: Of it is we don't we don't want the stuff in like rival countries so we don't want our but. 01:11:49 Speaker 7: I'm saying like if spacex is going to shoot up all these like data centers into space obviously the location is somewhat irrelevant i mean dubai is the same as well that's only if you could do it in space so i'm just saying like obviously china if i'm agnostic about location and americans are wigging out about it does it matter i guess is like a question that i haven't heard anybody. 01:12:12 Speaker 5: Ask well I want to say, as long as you're within the United States, technically, once it's going, it doesn't matter that much. But where they want to build them is like, okay, well, where do you have power plants? 01:12:25 Speaker 3: Do you have power. 01:12:26 Speaker 5: Plants in Mexico? No, because they usually need to build extra power stuff. And you need good transmission lines. 01:12:32 Speaker 6: I know for a fact they're building them in Mexico. 01:12:34 Speaker 5: It's not a coincidence that the most data centers have been built in... in Loudoun County and in the Bay Area, because those are the most developed parts of the U.S. By default, it's best to build them in the most densely developed parts of the U.S. If you're going into random rural areas, it's because you think it'll be easier to get permits and. 01:12:55 Speaker 3: Land and all of that. Infrastructure's not there. Which, that's why I'm in favor of them. 01:13:00 Speaker 4: I don't know exactly the reasons for it, but what Blake's saying is correct, is that it just works out better for. 01:13:06 Speaker 2: Them, and that's, of course, what's Annoying. And I'm not saying that... I'm not making the argument. 01:13:10 Speaker 4: I'm just saying that's why they're doing it. And, of course, this is what creates so many, you know, pressures with the local communities. 01:13:19 Speaker 6: Jack, why don't you take us home? This has been fun. Especially the AI hoes. 01:13:25 Speaker 3: Jack advocates for AI bot hoes. 01:13:29 Speaker 2: Well, look, I'm saying, look, you know, if the gooners. 01:13:37 Speaker 2: The gooners are going to need something, right? As long as it's not an actual American girl, then I think that is a step up. I suppose it is a step up. 01:13:48 Speaker 4: But remember, folks, never goon. Never, ever, ever goon. Ladies and gentlemen, always go out there and commit more. 01:13:56 Speaker 6: Fuck crime. 01:14:01 Speaker 5: For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to charliekirk.com.
